awkward lull
Today is one of those days. One of those days when I’m just waiting around for the ending. There is nothing on my to-do list that urgently requires my attention. My homework is slowly being completed and it’s not even anything that’s due tomorrow. My schedule for next week is set and packed and I’m about ready to dive in and find myself in between meetings and interviews...

If I get better, if I improve, if I work hard, the rest will come.

it's settled
Lately I have been feeling quite certain of who I am and where I stand. It’s weird to be typing this cause it’s not ever going to come across the way I want it to, but…I just feel more aware of who I am, what I want, what my limits are, what my traits are, my own strengths and weaknesses, etc. I guess I’m just getting more secure about who I am and where I fit in on this...

my hands smell like oranges
And oranges smell like Vitamin C. Vitamin C, in turn, smells like “uh oh, Chery’s getting sick.”
Sitting in the VDC undergraduate lounge yet again, sitting on my foot, thinking about the foods I eat and how I could write a twenty-five minute long paper about this, in French, in 13 hours.
Me: I just want to blog. J: You would.
So I finished my orange and blogged. I want to...

You will never possess what you are unwilling to pursue.

This quote frightens me and instills determination simultaneously.

my emo playlist
I’ve been listening alll weekend. When I study, when I sleep, when I get ready, when I don’t clean my room… Oddly enough, it makes me happy. One because I know all the words, two because it makes me think of emotions…key word being ‘think’ not FEEL. There’s none of that going on here. But it’s nice to know there’s some out there, and these...

Maybe I should have stayed home, written my essay, slept early.
and maybe not.
It frustrates me when I have less control than I wish I did. But humans are subject to ordinary emotions, aren’t they?
alone vs. lonely
alone does not = lonely
Is this a hard concept to grasp? For me it’s really not…but that’s just me. It’s the concept of you + me = we that trips me up all crazy.
ANYWAY.
Very happy & content being alone at the moment. Also listening to OLD music (sum41) and avoiding French & LJ homework. Oh, bother.
Hopefully the wild rains will continue tomorrow…I know it...

The wind is whistling a rather heavy tune and my windows are blurred with rain water, all I can see when I peer outside is a green mass that I know is a tree, though my eyes can’t discern the detail and take it for what it is. The front gate keeps swinging open and closed, inviting in our invisible guests — we’d be sure to have a party of more than a few by now. Are those my...
For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early...

spoken word
I went to a spoken word event today at UCI hosted by Uncultivated Rabbits, the on-campus spoken word group. Spoken word artists Sarah Kay and Phillip Kaye both performed; how talented they are I can not even begin to describe. Inspired? Much.
Something about the creativity in the syncopation and syntax takes such ordinary words to a whole new, extraordinary level. It’s pretty amazing, I had...

Intellect without discipline is boring
– my lit journ teacher. too true, but I’m lacking in the discipline at this moment..
Random thoughts from people our age…
1. I wish Google Maps had an “Avoid Ghetto” routing option.
2. More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can’t wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that’s not only better, but also more directly involves me. 3. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong. 4. I don’t understand the purpose of...
I take the fact that there is a Dorito lodged underneath my two key, preventing me from using the number two and instead typing out ‘two’, as a sign that I eat too much and spend too much time on my laptop. And that I do both things simultaneously, too much.
Also I can’t log in to my Wells Fargo account because my username has a two in it, maybe this is the universe saving me...
