Honestly, I feel so vulnerable right now.
I should have just kept my mouth shut and let things be. No, maybe not. I don’t know. It seems like no matter which decision I made, it would have left me feeling crushed. It’s normal to feel a little hurt, but I am glad I can finally work on laying this one to rest.
Hard
superxena:
Today was one of those hard days. I spent all my time in Los Angeles making sure that when this moment came, I would stay calm and collected and do what’s best to keep myself safe. Thankfully, I stuck to that plan.
But let me say, I never thought it would be this difficult.
Listen to me whine like a bitch—I’m sorry.
I just have to keep focused and do the shit I need to do. I...

I hate when people use ellipses in texts. I always get this feeling of uninterest or doubt from the person I am talking to.
Resolution
More than anything, I need to know the truth. I need to stop making assumptions and I need to hear what you think about me from you face-to-face. At least then, I can get some peace of mind and we can work together in reaching that next step, whether it is helping to mend the awkwardness of rejection or moving forth and developing something bigger. If we talk it out, then maybe we can avoid any...
I guess I still have got a lot to learn.
My fault. I’m still immature and way too naive. What is there to really do but move on? It’s just hard to not think about what we could have been.
We could have been amazing.
I feel incredibly dumb, but I think I’ll be alright. Maybe these words will just have to be left unspoken. It’s your call now.

Totally does not help that my heart beats 100x...

Life can be so freakin' complicated.
Forreal.
Looks like I'm dancing on benches this SPCN. :]
Really excited for practice this Saturday!
Meaningful Conversations
That 1-on-1 we had today really did mean a lot to me and challenged my preconceptions in so many ways. It’s just one step on this long path, but I am glad to have someone like you there to support me. I really do see you as one of my mentors and I really hope we have more conversations like this in the future. Thanks so much.
I just got the syllabus for my Study of Writing...
What…the fuck. This syllabus is basically just BEGGING me to visit office hours. I know that my prof talks a lot about cuneiform and hieroglyphs, but this syllabus needs a lot of deciphering on its own. It doesn’t help that I swear that one of these days this prof will speak slower and coarser than usual and eventually keel over at the podium.
Great. Dude doesn’t even have...

Rona: I think we need a black friend...
Rona: then it would be more well rounded
Mistakes We Knew We Were Making
Lately, I’ve just really been missing how we used to be before I made things awkward and everything fell apart. Why was I so scared back then? I need to be stronger for the next person that walks into my life.
I still had have a lot of growing up to do.
Even though everything is fine now and I am comfortable being around you again, I don’t think we can go back to that time in the...

So my roommate and I are in our room on our laptops and the room is quiet because we’re focusing on our own thing. I start closing some windows and while he plays Restaurant City and then it becomes a chain of awkward loud clicking noises from the mouse button.

Thank you.
Cheers to getting the word out. We are part of a global community and it’s important to be aware of what is going on in the world, especially when a big disaster like this hits. For more information on what happened, click here.
On another note, I really think it’s interesting how technology can bring people together so quickly to help each other in times of...
Race, Culture, and the "Other" Side
I just wrote a really long, charged post about race and culture, even needing a disclaimer, but I decided not to post it because I would rather have that discussion with people in person rather than through here, haha.
It all just stemmed from ElCo site today. Even though I didn’t have any PA sessions, I did have some really good conversations regarding the above topic with Janelle while we...

I realized that I have hella reading to do this quarter so it’s time to do as much frontloading as I can before everything gets crazy. Oh, GS 100A and Comm 122 coursereaders. You are both going down.
Study Hall party throughout the week. Join me! :D
Winter 2010 Classes
Asian M20 - Visible Language: The Study of Writing
The professor has an awesome Russian accent. I think I started actually thinking it (the accent, not the class) was fun after watching Star Trek. Anyway, I feel like this guy is gonna topple over at any second. He…speaks…so…slow sometimes and he kinda hunches over the podium. I have no idea what is really going on in this class,...

Omg. Cupcakes and games?! Double love. But the charades one doesn’t look very appealing. Haha. I like the Zork one. I can’t believe I’ve played that. I’m such a nerd :P
