Coming Out Of My Hello Kitty Lover Closet

In elementary school, I didn't give a shit about Hello Kitty. I didn't think she was that great. Besides, it was all about Spottie Dottie since she was so down to earth. Guess this kind of relates to how I'm a dog lover and not a cat person. In high school, I resented and refused to give in to the Hello Kitty loving lunacy because I always thought Hello Kitty was a spoiled, high maintenance brat. Of all the Sanrio characters, Hello Kitty ALWAYS has to be in the spotlight. Such an attention whore. She would never share with the other characters, especially Spotty Dotty, or even Badtz-Maru or Keroppi, the lime light. It's always about "Me, Me, Me" and "I'm so cute and everybody HAS to love me". So I never gave in to the Hello Kitty bandwagon... but now I don't know. The more I look at her, she gets more and more adorable... as if you can't really help but think she's adorable. She's sucking me in. So I guess I've had a change of mind. I don't like to admit it but starting from maybe senior year, she started to win my affection and it has only spiraled upwards. So now I'm coming out of my Hello Kitty Lover closet. Yes, it's true. I'm into... not girls but Hello Kitty. Teeheewheeeeee. Ah, the burden has been lifted! I don't need to front or hide it anymore and it feels soooooo good. I'm going to attend the 35th Hello Kitty Anniversary in LA (active participation in Hello Kitty festivities and give my support). I was also looking through the online Sanrio shop and I found a couple of must-haves. Just a couple.



Hello Kitty Contact Lens Case!!!


Hello Kitty Luggage 8) purrrrrrfect for traveling!


Hello Kitty Rear Mirror. Meow.


My most desired Hello Kitty item... totebag. So. Cute.


Cinnamoroll is also noteworthy, I like her too.


Cinnamoroll ROLLER BACKPACK. I would sacrifice any middle school/high school popularity and endure the taunting/kicking if I could sport this.


I fucking wish I was a millionaire.

I'll leave you to drool at this photo.

Consistently Inconsistent

Too much to do. Not enough to do.
Hungry. Nauseous.
Too many inspirations. Not enough motivation.
Wants &desires &theories. Not enough funds.
Forward. Rewind.
Rejection. Acceptance.
I have love for you. I have hate for you.
Down until I'm up.
Writer's block. I'm writing.
Personality block. Exuberant!



Sigh.

The Birth of Kermit

Summer was awesome, lots of down time. That's usually what I come home for. San Jose always just offers you down time to chill and relax with your friends. I guess you could say it's comfortable and familiar. But the best part about summer though was seeing my old friends and reuniting and meeting new ones!

Meet Stephen.


He likes electronic music and has a japanese girlfriend, Sarah.

And Erik.


He likes the way I make my mongolian bbq and wants people to leave him alone to "stone in peace".

These two people have set the record for the shortest length of time in becoming close, comfortable friends. They call me kermit.

This one's for you.

Still Got A Working Filter

I had a funny moment last night. I was on a different "level" and was thinking to myself and made a connection between two things. Cars and people. You know how the saying goes that pets of owners reflect the owner's personality? Well, I was thinking along those lines except with cars. Except cars don't necessarily reflect his or her owner's character. But cars definitely have personality. For example, I was sitting in Richard's Z and I felt very low to the ground, in a tight small spot, but still really secure. It was as if I felt like I was speeding through normality on the road and nobody could catch us. And then I think about how we all felt really comfortable in Caspar's old Lexus in high school, but I'm still not sure why that was the way we all felt. It must have something to do with the experiences that come with their own unique vibes and atmospheres that shaped Caspar's car into such an approachable portable home. Each driver's own individual taste in music also contributes to what kind of vibe you get when you get in the car. It's just that it's weird how a type of car could really impact and mold the entire group's mood and attitude of whatever destination is set and your state of mind during the trip to that destination. I wanted to tell Richard all of this but I thought it would sound stupid because even though I could process everything in my mind, I don't think I would have been as successful translating it into words. And now that I'm reflecting on it, it still sounds stupid. And the existence of this sad, pathetic blog post is purely dependent on this revelation. So what does this mean? This means that my filter ISN'T broken after all. HA!

Stupid Fucks

I hate stupid fucks. Don't we all?

Late Bloomer

Summer is unofficially officially starting. Summer Seshh is OVER which leaves more time for seshhesss ;) 8) :D!!!!!

Free Love

Free Love Is:

Playing with friends and making the best memories spontaneously and about absolutely the most ridiculous shit ever.
- "Did you guys notice that the best memories we have of each other are created when we're not doing shit and just fucking around?"
-- I got at least five likes on that.
Sitting on the top of the world with the most important people in your life.
Sharing good music.
- "Dude, who sings this?"
Waiting for opportunities to laugh at someone.
- Richard usually gives us this opportunity.

Mi r ro r iza tion

Fire alarms in Norte are going off again. Funny how I can hear it all the way from over here... must suck in the actual main building. Last two sentences were my "catchy" hooks.. which reminds me.. hooks are almost completely extinct in college papers. Professors just either don't like them or don't give a shit about your intro. Notice that my writing is kind of choppy right now? Well... currently my style of writing is mirroring how scatterbrained I am right now. My thoughts are flying all over the place and I'm feeling like I should be doing something I haven't done in awhile. Reflection. But I would rather label it mirrorization because reflections don't always portray the real(istic) image back but mirrors do. At least normal mirrors do. Maybe I should label it normal mirrorization then. The more I stare at the word mirror, the less real of an English word it becomes. Mirror. Mirror. Mirror. Mirror. Mirror. Mirror. Eff. What's wrong with me? This year has been fucking crazy. I feel like that statement right there really sums it all up. As if I captured the entire aura/gist/spirit/essence of this year in a bottle that has been laid out and flattened into words to form an understandable phrase. THIS YEAR HAS BEEN FUCKING CRAZY. Fucking crazy. Maybe insane sounds better. This year has been fucking insane. yes it has. I still have so many questions and I'm sure you do too. And you. And him. And her. And us. And all of y'all.


I wish I didn't break apart these memories and scatter them everywhere. I've stored them all away in different places and now I feel like I can't put the puzzle pieces back together.

Sometimes songs just say it better. I mean sing it better.

M.I.A.

Just to get things going, I'm going to just throw this out there. All of spring quarter, I was always put in the same sentence with MIA. From all sorts of different people. If I was MIA around Irvine, then I'm MIA on this blog too.




INTERMISSION, but I'll be back with lots of more tricks!


So brbingly yours,

Can't Help But Search Up Evolved Pokemons Instead Of Researching For My Paper

Sooooo I can't really explain how this evolved pokemon frenzy started but they make me laugh so hard that I just "can't stop, won't stop". Whoever gets to come up with pokemon names must have the funnest job on the planet. With no further delays... here are a few selected pokemon that I think are sooooo cool that it's getting cold. Don't laugh. Unless it's because you share the same humor as me and find the following pokemon hilarious. Get ready, set, GO!

Notice that it goes from a small seed-like sprouting to a bush to a tree on the back of the turtle-like pokemons.

"Slowpoke" ---------- "Slowbro"---------"Slowking"
Our favorite laziest pokemons. Notice the evolution goes from the non-existence of the shell to the tail to the top of the head. Interesting. AND HILARIOUSSSSS AHHAAHA.

Did they knowingly switch the l's to r's? HARRO PORYGON!

Don't we all miss Pokemon a little bit?

So, I just spent like an hour on this pointless entry but I hope you enjoy it as much as I did the first time surfing the web searching for especially-entertaining evolved forms of pokemon. My boyfriend and I were arguing about whether pokemon can die or not. He thinks that they only weaken in their level of strength but I think that they can die from being too low of that level and the only way they are returned back to health is by our favorite pokemon nurse, Chancey, at the PokeCenter! Don't we all remember the episode of Ash and Charmander in the rain when Charmander's tail of fire is about to go out? And the entire audience is held in suspense to see if Ash can get Charmander to the PokeCenter in time? I rest my case! Ciao loves!
