i dunno if this happens to you or not, but sometimes i think about what would happen if my life was made into a t.v. show...or not that i think my life is soooo interesting or anything....but like this weekend, while gazing out the window on the BART train, i was like hmm...in this moment of the show, this song would be playing in the background right now as part of the soundtrack:  (sorry to be one of those boring people who put lyrics of songs on their xanga...but hey, at least i made it somewhat interesting, right? hahaha)

You and Me-Lifehouse

What day is it? And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

All of the things that I want to say just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words
You've got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

There's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you
and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

What day is it?
And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive

i love sarah.  she is wonderful!!  I just want to bite her cause she is so darn cute. =)

I just wanted to tell the whole wide world this information.

so while chatting with calliea the other day, we've come to a conclusion about my house....my house refering to 2415 durant and the occupants of apartment b-sarah, tina, tracy, marilyn, calliea, and myself.  we live in a friggin CONVENT!!! hahaha.  calliea was like, "what is the place called where nuns live?" and i was like, "why?  a convent."  and she's like, "thats what our house is!"  hahaha. 

so why is our house a convent you ask?  several reasons.  1)  we don't anything but sit in our rooms all day, shut out from the outside world.  2) we are like an exclusive pack, where we only han gout with ourselves.  3)  it seems as if there is a curfew here.  people are asleep by 11 and wake up at 7.  4) there has been no male suitors over the entire semester for anyone.  i suppose the last one can be regarded as a good thing...but hey....what can i say.

so yes, we are basically taking the roles of a whole bunch of nuns for the last week of our college careers.  HOW SAD!    whatever happened to having a little fun?  boo. 

i think i need new friends.  lets go out...yeah, you!   

haha just a lil clarification...it came to my attention that people thought i was going to india for good. hahaa  i'm not going to actually work work in india...going just for a 2 month internship and i'll be back in august.  awww...i know ya'll miss me dearly anyway! teehehe.  lets skype!!! 

if there is one thing attending berkeley has prepared me for, it is to be able to endure, however painfully it may be, all the horrible shit they toss at you from every angle imaginable.  no, it's not all attributed to the material that we cover and the magic the rigorous cirriculum expects us to do, but its everything else too.  crappy weather, crappy housing, crappy ta's, crappy everything!  its just misery on top of misery, thats what it is!!!  berkeley likes to take both your arms and stretch and pull them in opposite directions.  GRAWR!!! 

no, can't say that i've learned much in college.  if anything, i've learned how to pile together my resources and make many deals and transactions along the way.  you scratch my back, i'll scratch yours.  hey, thats what IEOR is all about, right?  outsource that shit!

and now..back to more grueling work.  FUCK.  i hate school.

marilyn's so lucky...she's on a plane right now heading for taiwan.  STOW ME AWAY IN YOUR SUITCASE PLEASE!!!

in other news...well, there's not much going on actually.  quite frankly, i've been pretty bored during the weekends here...the roomates seem to go to bed consistently earlier and earlier these days...and there is only so much time that can be spent sleeping. hahaa yah, i can't believe i actually admit to that. 

during the week, had a burst of spontanaeity one day when me, sarah, and mar decided to go to s.f. to shop at like 6 in the evening.  we recruited the tina-sim-ist to go with us and then afterwards, we dined at the cheesecake factory, though none of us got cheesecake .  haha.  went to henry's later on that night too....so that was cool.  then wednesday, tracy, tina, sarah, and i went to ktv it up in el cerrito.  gosh, i simply love mr. chou.  he's the BESTEST!  david and leehom are quite the great as well.  tehehee

went home this weekend and went shopping for my graduation gift-work shoes!  how delightful.  when i integrate into the work world, i won't have to be boggled down with uncomfortably painful shoes.  i am one to not give in to pain for beauty...ahaha...and you can attest to that by the types of shoes i wear...or rather, the types of shoes i can't wear.  tracy knows what i'm talking about-her and her white pumps.  oh man!  i couldn't walk in those for the life of me! yay for salvadore ferragamo!

what else is new?  not much i guess.  my bday at asia s.f. was most awesomest.  i must say, to hell to those of you who made me do the blowjob shot, to hell to those of you who took incriminating photos of it, and to hell to alan who made me go up to the pole.  blah. haha all in all, it was a great night!  and to all of you who couldn't make it, i hate you.   haha j/k.

can't wait for manly, chachi, and chen xin to come up for graduation festivities in may!  yippeeee!!!  hopefully alice will be able to come too. 

but besides all that, i want old teahouse.  i want old teahouse NOW!

just to recap whats going on lately...i must say that april has been a way better month than march...and i'm not that surprised because april has always been my favorite month out of the year (could it be cause my bday is in april??? hehehe).  stole this off of marilyn's xanga, just in case you are too lazy to actually go and click on her link. 

says marilyn (and pei-pei, i'm actually referring to you AND quoting you this time):

"seems like everyone is going off to incredible jobs and schools after graduation!  especially at accenture...at 1:30am, we found out our tracy got ny accenture!  yay yay for my roomie-4-lyfe!  she'll be joining me on the east coast   our other roommate caillea already signed with ny accenture a while back, and now, john's about to get sf accenture  

it's so sad that we're all going to be scattered after graduation, but i'm so proud of everyone :*)"

yup...so thats pretty nuts, i must say.  oh, and about me going to india...yah...found out on the night of my birthday that i got an all expense paid internship to go to india and intern at infosys for the summer.  though i'm very excited about it, at first i was still a little apprehensive.  not as if i have never travelled outside the country.  i mean, heck, i've studied abroad in france and taiwan!  but i think perhaps its because for one, i'm going to a country where i've never been before, two-i know nothing about the language whatsoever (can't read/speak/write/anything!), and three-i'll be travelling completely by myself.   for the life of me, i hope i don't get lost!  eek!!! but after sitting down and thinking through everything, i knew i couldn't give up this chance...and so...india, here i come!  whoo hooo!

i'm in class right now and 15 minutes before class started, i was at the bear's liar having a pint of apriocot something with brady, noel, and sammy.  so now...i'm a lil buzzed...and i'm in class...muahahaha.  life's grand.

thanks to everyone who texted/called/imed me to wished me a happy birthday today!  i was so surprised at certain people who actually remembered too.   i love you all!   

didn't realize how many dumbasses there are at berkeley.  how the hell do you NOT know how to use a laptop mouse?  its one of those with the red knob thing in the middle of the laptop and while polling, i heard some many people simply freak out.  "omg!  these computers scare me!", "excuse me, but where's the mouse?", "blah blah this", "blah blah that".  MY GOODNESS!  i know that i'm not the brightest crayon in the box, but i sometimes wonder how some people got into cal. 

anyway, my roomates and i noticed that not as many people come over anymore just to kick it.  how sad!  come on...you know you want to come to the fobthrel and hang out with us cool cats!  it'll be fun, promise!!!

been working the polls the past 2 days and waking up incredibly early...and no, not incredibly early for me, but even for you early birds out there...yah, 5 and 7 am.  sheesh. insane.  didn't know it was THAT cold in the mornings here.  and i suppose its probably due to the fact that i normally wake up in the pm.  bleh.  i had polling duty yesterday from 8-10 am and i was freezing my ass off outside of soda/etcheverry.  it took me 3+ hours afterwards in a warm room to finally warm up.  bleh. 

today, i was prepared.  i had to be at soda/etcheverry from 6-11am...and what did i wear?  a long sleeved shirt, a t-shirt, a sweatshirt, pj pants underneath a pair of sweats, a scarf, and gloves.  yah, it was THAT cold and I was still turning into a human popsicle sitting out there.  *sigh*.  apparently getting paid to do nothing involved freezing your ass off.  had i known i'd be freezing my ass off, perhaps i would have thought twice about working as a poll worker for asuc elections...ehh...easy money though. 

but i think, the worst thing about it all is that it actually gets pretty warm in the early afternoon, exactly the time i'm done with my shift.  i see everyone around campus wearing summer clothes and i feel so retarded because i get hella strange looks from people because i'm dressed like i just got back from alaska or something.  geebus. 

even after working a few days at the polls, i'm surprised at how many people out there don't know how to use a laptop.  is it that hard to put the power button?
