done;

with blogger. Moving onto tumblr now.

:)

I lied.

Missing someone does not get better by the day.

Instead, it gets worse because the wait seems like an

eternity.

I miss you.

|lo siento|♡

Sorry to all those I have been taking my anger out wrongly on..

My sleep deprived state of mind is finally taking over.

&I'm sorry to all those whom I have been getting mad at randomly

&I'm sorry for not showing some people that I care enough

&I'm sorry for saying all of the wrong things at the wrong times

&I'm sorry for being so annoying lately

&I'm sorry for caring about you too much

&I'm sorry for not being perfect

&I'm sorry to everyone for being so down lately

I'm very sorry.

|The End?|

I found a line that once said:

"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning,

but anyone can start today and make a new ending."

Do I believe everyone can start over and create a beautiful new ending?

Yes, I do.

I think it's a pity to throw things away because of the wrong reasons,

to stay mad at people because of a difference in opinion,

to avoid people for your own personal reasons,

to pretend that you do not care.

& As much as I want to say that everything right now is okay?

It's not, because something is missing

and

another quote:

"Everything will be okay in the end; if it's not okay, it's not the end."

I guess this is not the end, right?

Missing someone gets easier everyday because

even though it's one day further from the last time you saw each other,

it's one day closer to the next time you will.

:)

Finding this quote made my day.

It helps me view certain things with a more optimistic perspective.

I miss having someone to draw little cartoon dinosaurs for.

I haven't done that in a while.

I might just go and doodle all over my notebook now.

For old time's sake, right?

You

were worth the wait.

It's official.

You're my one in a million.

Add.

3 energetic Tae kwon do Girls

(who have not seen each other in months)

Energy drinks & Chips.

Crazy loads of chocolate & candies.

Laptops with cameras.

Crazy awesomeness.

and you'll get

the Best Halloween

EVER.

I guess this is proof that some people just never change.

Things can always be fun, no matter how far the distance and

how long the time we've been apart.

I missed this and it just so happens to be

just what I needed after the long month of October.

❤

"But hold your breath

Because tonight will be the night

That I will fall for you

Over again

Don't make me change my mind"

Who could have seen this coming a month ago?

I sure didn't.

& It all still feels unreal to me.

& Just maybe, this quote is true:

"Sometimes the feelings we start to have again

are the same feelings that never really went away."

& Just maybe, this is a dream

If it is, please never wake me up because

Things are slowly falling into place.

<3

&You make me SMILE

More than you'll ever know:)

I can't tell you this because then,

things will change.

I know it.

Thank you for not leaving,

I am glad you are in my life.<3

3. Cultural Considerations

Being born into a family that was fluent in another language rather than English, Vietnamese was and is still the spoken language at home. Although in many cases this is an advantage, it also has its many disadvantages as well. Walking in the hallways of school full of English-speaking people and speaking my own language, I was an easy target for the bully kids who think it is cool to make fun of something that does not sound "English." When I mentioned the word: "Pho," as in the "noodle soup" of the Vietnamese people, people assume that I just said a cuss word. When I say: "Tai Sao" for "why", people give me weird stares as if I had just grown another head. A majority of the time, when I speak Vietnamese in public, I would hear kids screaming some obscene things at me, most of them assuming that the language only consists of the words: "Ching and Chong," which in the Vietnamese dictionary, does NOT even exist. It is a sad to know that simple everyday words in another language that kids are not familiar with are often criticized by people who do not understand the complex and beautiful language, people who are ignorant to the truth, and people who have no care for the country and its amazing diversity.

Disheartening as it may sound, the simple act of trying to preserve one's language today is a lot harder than it seems because there are still people in the world who are not "open" to new things and the to the fact that there is more than one language that exists in our world.

&if..

you are in a bad mood, why do you take it out on the people who care most about you?

I don't get it and neither do you.

Reflect on Narration

Throughout the entire narration unit, I learned that narration is basically the retold story of an event that happened whether you were a witness or a character in the story. Narration can be told in many different ways such as a newspaper article like in the short story "Thirty-Eight Who Saw Murder Didn't Call the Police," or written in a first person perspective, the author being the main character like in the story "Indian Education." No matter what perspective these stories are coming from, they all have one thing in common. All of the narrations we were given to read described, gave commentary to, and/or recounted an event.

The proof that innocence exists in our world makes me smile:)

Confused:
disoriented, taken back, muddled, dumbfounded

Why do you have to make me so confused?
In the morning, my mind is set
but
Before I sleep, I'm doubting my own judgment.
Why?

I'm unsure. I'm doubtful.
I'm optimistic but I'm pessimistic.
I'm lost but I'm found.

I'm not sure.
I tell you all one thing,
I'm thinking something else.
I think one thing and then a second later,
I change my mind.
Why?

I need a sign.
Any. sign.

:)

Why is it that some days, I feel as if my decision was wrong? Why do I always contemplate with myself so much? Even with all the distractions in my life, it's still not enough to let my mind take a break from having second thoughts and questions like: What If? Well, even though what's needed to be said has not all been said, what's done is done and I don't want to turn back. I've tried that numerous times now and I'm tired from trying again and again. If it hurts the first time, no doubt it'll hurt the second time around too so I think I'll spare everyone from that... :)

I found a new line that I love((:



WORDS aren't words until you mean what you say; &LOVE isn't love until you give it away..

yay Disney PSA's!

Back Again

I can't help but be grateful that today turned out well.You guys were the closest friends I had for a really really long time but then the bond we had between us slowly started disappearing, and soon enough, it was completely gone. For the longest time, I thought we had no chance of ever talking like we did today ever again. It was just something that never crossed my mind anymore. We always walk past each other without a second glance, not giving a single care about the other person lately and I'm glad that at least for ONE day, we seemed to care about each others lives. It's been so long, TOO long since we've talked and chilled like today and this makes me very happy to say the very least. I guess you can say that I'm glad that you're giving me hope that things CAN be better again, that the unfixable things CAN be fixed again. It's just a matter of time..Even this is false hope, I'd like to think so for one day..

missing you..

Some days, I wake up feeling lonely and kinda sorta empty and sit there and wonder why. Lately, it's been happening a lot so of course, I worried.. But then, I realized that it was not some random mood or anything I ate and whatnot. I realized it was from not seeing my friends like I usually do everyday when we still had school going on. I miss it all. I feel happy whenever a friend calls me up and we talk forever like we haven't ever talked before. You guys probably can't see it but whenever we talk, there's a big fat smile on my face...basically, I want to see everyone again and talk and laugh like we always do. I feel alone without you guys.
I miss you all more than words can express..<3

s-s-summer2k9

finally finally started for me...(:

kinda sorta late dontcha think?


Well, I don't care.


So far, it's been drama-free & that was EXACTLY what I asked for so..
I guess all these trips are just considered a "bonus" for me!

:D
