“So, you can make it to Le Amuse Bouche tomorrow, right?”
Julie waited in anticipation for Dana’s answer.

i want it

30Jan09

there have been very few things in my life (so far) that i have really wanted.
yeah i want that shirt, but it’s not a necessity and i eventually get over it in a few hours.
yeah i want to eat chocolate cake, but i can always get chocolate cake.
yeah i want to sleep 10min more, but [...]


so i dont really have a bestybestbestbestest best friend. i had good friends. and many acquaintances who are all very nice and sweet.
but after not having a best friend for a few years, i sure do miss it. it’s nice to know that you can seriously call up that one person about anything and everything [...]


how are you able to purse your lip so that your upper lip can touch the bottom of your nose?
are we still friends?
i think you’re going to get sick of me one of these days if we keep on hanging out.
i hope your finances work out.
when was the last time i saw you?
your hair is [...]


books&quotes

I wished I hadn’t started this conversation. I forced a smile. “Don’t be stupid, Hassan. You know I wouldn’t.”
Hassan returned the smile. Except his didn’t look forced. “I know,” he said. And that’s the thing about people who mean everything they say. They think everyone else does it too.
It is not atheists who get stuck [...]


videogames

22Jan09

i dont play videogames.
it’s not because my parents never let me see daylight until i finished all my math hw and finished piano practice so i had no chance to play videogames.
it’s not because i punched my best friend in the mouth after losing to her during a videogame match in the third grade.
it’s not [...]


My friend was talking to me the other day (or I was talking to my friend?…) about friendships.
She told me something that I particularly thought stood out; she told me that a good friend is someone you can just call up randomly to hang out with or to eat with, while a friend who is [...]


preteens

are
so
freakin
weird.
that’s basically all i have to say. oh, and the next time i see a bunch of girls with juicy bags and matching abercrombie jackets i will have to shave their heads. and then smash their iphones. oh, and then slap their parents for making them as horribly materialistic as they turned out to be.


this year, i havent really made any new years resolutions. it’s not because i dont have anything to work towards or im a lazy bum–i just dont need jan1 to justify what i am already trying to achieve nor do i need to announce it to the whole internet world. i mean, everyday im trying [...]


after being in the airport 2983 times these past couple of years, ive made a few mental notes about how one should travel when one is traveling by airplane.
(im going to assume that youve already checked in your luggage and that it’s pretty self-explanatory on how one should check in stuff…)
1. wear flipflops or slippers/flats. [...]


endings

07Jan09

while i am a fan of happy endings, sometimes i feel like there is a difference between “happy endings” and “right endings”. yes, it would be nice for all conflicts to disperse and ride off into the sunset knowing that the next following day will be filled with sunshine and candy…
but (there is always that [...]


musqweetoe!

03Jan09

ah california. i have had the luxury of never getting fully acquainted with such pests like mosquitoes because:
1) i dont go camping in the wilderness (unless i am forced to by some surprise family “vacation”)
2) i live in the suburbs
there is no need to bother with the fear of running into mosquitoes or having to [...]
