How was your day/week?

Incredibly eventful for a mere trip to the mall. One of my female friends from middle school drove us to Brea Mall, with me holding the GPS for back-up.

Came out with nothing but a skincare product. It was on sale, too :3
I was overly picky on clothes and bought NOTHING. I hate the batches at the mall now. They SUCK. I always go back to Korean clothes >.<

Ah, skincare. Totally worth cutting back on food over. But now I don't see myself going ice skating. Oh, well :/

Anyway, this is my baby :

Relatively better packaging than my other toner, which is huge and has an awkward cap. This one is more portable.


Trip didn't end on the best note because of the tension between my female friends. I played mediator. Friend M saw this and seemed to grow really fond of me during the course of the trip, since we haven't really talked since.... well, half a decade prior. I was still highly concerned for Friend T during the latter half of the trip, and did my best to make the mood light-hearted. Mission accomplished. (: Talking to her right now.
Also, falling in love with Kim Heechul's voice...

it's okay; we know american sizes are too big for you

skipping out on ice skating? but you said nearly everyone's coming ! there's got to be some way. maybe you can borrow your friends' money...?

You know that's not going to happen, Snow -_- she usually invests in all those high-end products because of her sensitive skin, she doesn't want to owe anyone. Best bet would be to pay for her - but that would probably just make her feel more intent NOT to go so you might as well make her consider it one of her bday or holiday presents ;]

^ My name is now synonymous with high-end products. Thanks lol ;D

My day... well, it's only ten a.m... but, I need to figure out what I can do with a pair of XL motorcycle fingerless gloves. I hate how they smell like tires.
Maybe I'll just give them away. Or at least move them out of my room. I forgot they were hiding behind the DVD player.

It's going good today. I took the kids out for breakfast, learned a new tune on the piano, and am currently helping mom with computer stuff for work. AND MY BROTHER'S STILL ASLEEP...

[FragrantMemory]

Did a lot of cleaning so I won't have to clean on New Year's. I found a lot of old documents that I thoroughly enjoyed re-examining, including old journal entries about high school, one project from junior year, and math exams I kicked butt on.

Found my little enemies laying around, too : college textbook receipts.
D I E ...

There was an old photograph, too.... some things were just.... not meant to be. Hah...?
Sigh. Yeah...

Found martial arts-related things. It makes me a little sad. Or intensely nostalgic, I dunno. It's not like I left a part of me behind...

Got distracted for an hour reading Cosmopolitan.
Danced to Korean songs. "Sorry Sorry" just never gets old! ;O

My journals from middle school have disappeared :x


And... Mr. Miyagi from 'The Karate Kid' died?! No, he's been dead for more than four years. Holy crap. I didn't know =[
And the main lead kid/guy/boy from that movie isn't Native American?? Wow...

[jooojooobeee]

neighbors went all out on new year's and the cops came

[Xyrad]

^ That happened to me too. It wouldn't have been so bad if they weren't blocking the only entrance/exit of the apartment complex. -_-

Today was better, went ice skating with a bunch of friends (most of whom had no clue what they were doing). Such fun.

[FragrantMemory]

Yeah, I was glad I was able to go. Friend V paid for me because I paid for a lot of her stuff back when I had endless cash rolling. I'd say it was a pretty fair trade considering how much I spent on other people back then, including her. Hundreds and hundreds that weren't entirely necessary... I just loved offering. Now I can't, even if I wanted to.

Ice skating was fun - but only after I downgraded by two sizes. Can't believe I was dumb enough to ask for the same size as my BOOTS. I mean, junior females' shoe sizes are so DIVERSE. You got the one size for converse, for nikes, for boots, for heels... I think I'll go insane one of these days just remembering my sizes for everything. And that's only the Western system. The Korean system alone will be the death of me.
It was so loose I couldn't stand upright even if I tried - my feet would be swimming everywhere in the skates and by reeling every which way to keep balance, my foot muscles felt like they were literally ripping. My friends kept telling me to try, but I was trying not to burst into tears from the pain. When I couldn't stand it anymore, I went back and switched. After that, it was easier to move around but the damage to the various muscles was done. =( I still felt immense pain and my eyes watered, but I tried to act nonchalant. Singing Korean pop songs distracted me from the ripping feeling and I was able to skate a little.
Next time I'm just gonna succumb upright and get the quick fix instead of trying to play strong.

Woke up late today and felt like everything was tearing when I stepped down from my bed.
So much for going out. I can't even drive like this. I need to sit down with a good eucalyptus balm.

^HOLY CRAP....


forget all the complaints i had about my week

[Xyrad]

Ling! You should've just said so! ><
We told you they were supposed to fit tight... Now I feel really bad about trying to drag you across the ice.

It's okay, don't feel bad. It was pretty fun, all that aside. It was one hell of a workout. And I learned how they 'clean' the ice. =D

Oh yeah... and after ice skating, went to Korea Plaza.
My wishlist is already flooded... good thing the lady's nice and will offer samples with purchase, tee hee.

I think I'm gonna read a Harry Potter book today.

[FragrantMemory]

Threw a mini tantrum today(eg. tossing things about my room when I think no one's looking) and now I feel somewhat better.
Life seems to be coming at me way too fast. It's vomiting itself at me, more like. :/
Anyway, the rest of the week may be less hectic.... so I'll just be working on my fitness in my spare time, I guess.
But any new martial arts concepts will have to wait because I'm too exhausted to absorb.

[FragrantMemory]

My day so far has been even more stressful than previous. From hyperventilating, panicking, to bursting into tears.... and then there was no one else there(they were in the ER), I had to mentally persuade myself to calm the fu.ck down and remain at home while I prayed. I even prayed to Lord Guan, and I NEVER ask him for anything. Felt like barfing for a while, but I relied on myself to keep my head somewhat intact.

Also, trying to explain the situation to someone else while you're panicking yourself is seriously difficult.

Ended up not going to my friend's house, but that's the least of my worries right now. I am f**king exhausted.
