12 days of christmas

On the twelfth day of christmas my true love gave to me.
and a brand new scv
2 mineral patches
3 spider mines
4 stim packs
5 giant NUUUuuukkes
6 templars fusing
7 ghosts are locking
8 probes are popping
9 zerglings dying
10 lurkers burrowing
11 drones a' buildin'
12 goliathes firing

well you get the drift. I shall combine this with some actual footage of them doing it.... but probably will become too lazy to actually get anywhere.

Well, this is basically a third of the break over... I'm some what disappointed at the things i've done.

1. outing w/ friends - didn't do much
2. partying w/ friends - became a shoulder to cry on
3. another outing w/ friends - canceled due to the continuously snowing snow!!!! GOD stop please?

although you know what I think i might be taking all of this too seriously. If it doesn't go as planned ... it isn't the end of the world. Plans are meant to not go accordingly, and with that I really do hope somethings do happen soon as I truly miss spending time with my friends over the break. Especially those that I can't see on a regular basis.

merry christmas and a happy new year for those reading this :D

DONE!!! + random thoughts.

Like a bird breaking free of shackles holding it down within a metal cage of captivity, we of science one are liberated from our daily tasks to study as much information as possible.

However, once exams are done, i feel, I'll truly be able to see the true side of what people really thought. It's quite a simple way of looking at it, and I'll tell everyone about it soon enough.

On another note... i was tricked ... for the 3rd time by a certain girl who constantly tricks me. We started talking about lives in general but hey what do u know she suddenly told me that she was spending time with her bf. Consider she always thought herself so much more superior to any man i thought it was impossible. And I was tricked twice before too. Anyways after not even 4 minutes into the conversation i was tricked... AGAIN! I gotta stop thinking that girls are so trust worthy.

Final note... today i went to some western christmas part, and my was i surprised at how different it is compared to the parties i've used to have. It involved some caroling , present opening, and eating. However, what i realized from the trip was that of the 30 something people there me , my dad, and my brother were the only asian people there. I seriously have not given a thought as to how strong racial separation still is today. We see the koreans with the koreans, the chinese with the chinese, whites with the whites... are these separations really necessary? We're in fking Canada speak english as a common language and actually stop being so exclusive. I know today's dinner might have just simply the result of past generations, but i truly hope and believe that this segregation will improve with years to come.

Half way through~

Although i promised myself that I wouldn't be blogging during exam times... well here I am blogging to my hearts content at 1am ... again.

As many of my fellow colleagues probably already know we just had a killer physics exam... and well it's starting to worry me quite a bit since we already know that "our final exam mark is basically our final science one mark"-past sci1. So I wish everyone great luck in the up coming tests, and that they'll do well in all of them.

On another note... recently I have felt like I've found something that I thought was going to be lost forever. All it took was some courage from one side and i guess two genuinely nice people.

Final note, is there such a thing as bad music? Lately I've been getting criticized about my taste in music, but really all I had to hear was "can you use your headphones?" i mean I don't comment on how "suck" sum1's music is just because it's not something I'm used to hearing ._. Everyone has their preferences and taste and I guess it'd be good to appreciate it. I've had other times in life where people have commented on my taste in food and etc. etc. and well it's basically the same thing /end rant.

Hmmm so much to say so little space, but here's one thing.

So as I was doing my lifesci volunteering thing something came across my mind. Who are the most influential people that contributed the most to how I am today? So I decided to make up a short list depicting 8 of them. (order has no significance)

1. Dad
2. Anthony (sum black guy in NY)
3. Ji Kim
4. Elyse Kantonen
5. Sara Kim
6. Nick Benoy
7. Chris Geng
8. Joe Liu

I don't know why they're so randomly assorted, but there's a deep meaning behind each person. I know it's a short list, but hey I'm only 1/5th (hopefully) through my full life... there's always more room for more isn't there? ;)

OOoohhh and another thing... i watched twilight the movie today. Instead of studying for the finals

I have no idea if I felt right and myself liking the movie. It was fun and exciting, but the fact that it's a chick flick definitely stands true. However that guy in the movie (who played cedric digory in harry potter movies) was soo freaking smooth... not to sound gay or anything but I felt really excited when he and the girl was together O.o lmao (ps i am straight).

With this my blog will come to a slight halt, until the next time I find myself faced with the "what to do it's already 1am, and I can't study anymore..." question.

Ps. louis i see u XD

The USD oh wth!?

so after the USD being almost equivalent to our Canadian dollar for quite a long time...

as I was checking to buy something on ebay using paypal and trying to convert canadian dollars into US dollars I realized that it displayed... a surprised 1:0.8 conversion ratio.

What the hell?! since when did canadian dollars suck so much?

On a side note... this was my Flaming Letter to creative customer service center:



"So, after many months of waiting for the RMA
to come back (since April )

I received, yet again, another e-mail from the RMA
department today.

My first RMA: (sent out in April)

#RMA: 8APR45809
tracking #: 1Z6F072F2049204957 (invalid)

I've contacted the rma department but they have not
replied.

Today (nov 18th, 2008) I get another e-mail saying
I have another RMA

#RMA: 8NOV77845
tracking #: 1Z6F072F2049372598 (also invalid)

They are both of the same product ( I believe). I have
no idea what is happening with a creative product that
I paid $150 for + $30rma shipping + $25 "diagnostic fee",
and any longer and the RMA will be out of it's
1year warranty, as well as it becoming a fact that
I've waited for the rma for more than I've actually
used the player.

Last letter I sent back told me to wait for roughly 10
days for UPS to process the shipment, but here I am waited
35days for an update on the tracking number.
There have been absolutely no notice of a delivery, or
attempt of delivery on my door as well (obvious since the
tracking numbers are both invalid).

I am NOT going to be phoning long distance only to be answered
by automatic telephone machines, and having to work my way through
series of steps before I even get a chance to speak to a
representative. I know this matter can be solved over e-mail,
and I hope it does soon.

No one I know of have experienced such customer service
from creative,ever.

Regards,
Shoujun Chen

This e-mail contains my address, zip code, and any other
information you will need. The original shipment (sent out in april)
contained a photocopied validation of my purchase date, if needed,
I will be able to dig it out again."

quite the interesting read; regardless, it's coming in
the mail back to my open and loving arms now. :D

Puke of undigested thoughts.

Listening to Imogen Heap a thought occured:
"Why haven't i been blogging lately?"

I realized that I had completely stopped blogging on my last blog... this was definitely not my intention when i started to write blogs.

So here I am creating a different titled blog with a different approach as to what I put inside it.

This blog shall, and will consist of mainly, but not limited to, my thoughts. My thoughts towards anything to be exact. The interesting thing about what I intend to do is that my thoughts won't be reviewed. In other words I won't be thinking of what I'm going to say in this blog, it'll just come naturally whenever I feel like it.

With the introductions aside I feel the first blog should have at least some kind of content, and so here it is:

It was interesting, now looking back, of how different I had become from since grade 10 til now. I've changed in more ways than just appearance, but rather how I look at people, and the world in general. Lately, at least i think, these feelings of change have been affecting me... I don't know if this is the explanation, but I hope it is. Now, I actually feel much more settled down and calmer than I was before.

If every transition from one place to another will take me a whole four months to finally settle down i'd be pretty screwed for the rest of my life.... huh...

oh well, I guess I have become more careless than I want to be. I've stopped worrying about even some of the major things going on in my life. For instance, recently i hurt a friend from high school without even realizing I had done so. Later when she texted me, it seemed as though i had received a slap to the face telling me to wake up.

Now the questions that have been bothering me have been all related to this. Have I changed? Is who I am now who I want to be? We'll see how this goes.

*this was actually done on friday... it was just on another blog site... *
