Of A Wasted Day & Motion Photography

I want to say that today was productive, but in doing so will have completely ignored all of the important work I should have done. Perhaps it was the idea that both research and class is now over, or the idea that I no longer have a strict schedule until the evenings which are invariably [...]

Of Franz Porcelain Presents

Today is a tease. If it is not enough to describe my encounters today as spoiled, consider it right for the fact that I’m so exhausted from the treasure found.
My day started being picked up by Mary who, with Andrew, drove me to an antique store soon to be closed in Pleasanton. It was there [...]

Of Yesterday’s Seemingly Funky Events?

My oral presentation of how NCUR turned out this year was delivered fairly well; my professors seemed genuinely interested. It’s a good thing I spent time on the powerpoint. However, it seems I spoke so much of my experience at the conference, that I had neglected the research I presented. When prompted with the question, [...]

Sisterly Love

OH! My Nintendo DS is no longer broken. By reading this journal, no one would know my DS was ever broken, that’s because I was so sad that I put it in private so that I myself wouldn’t have to look at my venting about it. Super Boyfriend to the rescue!
[edit]  I got accepted to [...]

Farewell Big Break

It’s the end of my wonderful winter break, and since Monday is King’s birthday, I spent my holiday adding a page to my scrapbook. This one is when Andrew and I went to spend the day at Travis’s place. I also took the liberty of running errands today, resulting in a belt hanger, body wash, [...]

I’m bored.

Puffy.

Not puffy.

Studio pics!

So, here is another brief review – this time covering two studio photography shops:
The first one is Star Shots, a studio now no longer available at the Great Mall. It is much to my dismay that I’ve never been around to figure out what happened to the shop; I thought they were quite successful with [...]

the ‘rampant’ thoughts

Dinner with Andrew’s family was too early, and I later indulged my appetite by a little business in the shopping plaza nearby. It was a soup house called “Wuji’s,” and it’s homely appearance was quite misleading to its daunting soup orders: there’s a reason they didn’t put pictures on the menu. To soothe ourselves from [...]

Unproductive Day

This morning the coaching session required that I be a business gal; that I pull myself out of the scientific mind and think supply & demand and profit in the revolving oligopolies of the business world. I am hereby transformed into a financial whiz with faithful trading.
And after that, a friend calls to trade [...]

Ah, endorphins! Yes!

I like how I started a fair chunk of a paragraph last night regarding the extent to which I journal, and then my computer crashes altogether making me unusually sleepy and retiring from my mad attempt.
I spoke about how one might assume I lack my natural flair for journaling (note: not to be confused [...]
