So it's 5am and I can't sleep. Booo, typical. So of course it's time to come here to talk about my life and pass the time. Brilliant idea, Kat.

What's new with me?
+ I somehow still have an A in all my classes. Who knows how long that'll last though. Roe and I made a bet on school gpa hahaha if i win he's taking me to Disneyland~ ;>
+ Nan peng you is coming tomorrow. Yay.
+ I wanna go shopping.
- I'm freaking broke though.
- My room is a mess.
+ I love doing my nails.
+ I was a cat for Halloween. Haha, get it? Kat the muthafuckin' cat, wassupppp.
+ I'm starting to like ums games on sc lately. Desert strike, spiral d, dodge the rapist, oh my.
+ I really want to go snowboarding. Didn't get to go last season cuz I spent winter break in Taiwan, but this season for sure. Haven't even had a chance to try out my new board/bindings. Pewp. Hope we do a Mammoth trip.

I can't think of anything else going on with me right now. Freaking boring life. My dad's going to Taiwan tomorrow (or today) until the 28th. Have a safe flight dad.

Um, the end~

Kat


Kat the cat with a cat, ballinnnnnnnnnnn'

I'm having a super shitty day & I just feel like going on a rampage. So instead I will channel my anger into my xanga. Warning: Do not continue reading if you are offended by expletives.

First of all, I started my rag yesterday, which makes today the second day, & for me, the second day is always the heaviest. As if this were not enough to piss me off, my cramps only ever come on the first day (if they do at all), but of course, for the first time in my life, I was honored by the presence of cramps on both the first and second day of my cycle. Fuck you, Mother Nature. Fuck you really fucking hard. Why the fuck do I even need a period right now? I didn't need it at age 13, I don't need it now, I won't need it for another 8 years at least. Please save your fucking gay bloody shit till I'm like 30. Kthx.

If you don't know me very well, then you don't know that my sleep schedules/habits are really messed up & that I sleep really late (4am is early). Well now you know. I'm taking summer school which is every day from 11:10-12. So over the summer I sleep anywhere from 4am to 1pm (after I get back from class). I wasn't very tired this morning (last night?) so I decided to sleep after class. The hours passed by pretty quickly until about 9:30am, when I got really tired. But I couldn't take a nap cuz I knew that if I did, I wouldn't be able to wake up for class, & I couldn't miss today because take-home midterms were being passed out today.

Somehow I survived the impossibly long & slow hour & a half until class. But of course, in class the prof tells us that the take-home midterm is canceled because a couple of assholes cheated on the second in-class midterms, & if students would cheat in class, they would definitely cheat at home. So no take-home midterm, which was 20-30% of our grade (I don't remember the exact percentage right now).

Of course I needed this midterm because I never had enough time to finish the in-class exams since each class is only 50 minutes; the take-home would've allowed me to spend as much time as I want on every problem. Fuck you, cheating assholes. Why the fuck would you have to cheat anyway? We have fucking open-note exams. Are you fucking kidding me?

Anyway, the prof's solution is to take the highest exam score & count it twice. But I didn't do great on the first two because like I said, never had enough time to finish (the prof himself admitted he made both tests too hard). Of course, there's always the final, but that's gonna be even worse- a cumulative final covering material from the entire summer crammed into 50 minutes. Fucking great, eh?

I thought I'd look at the bright side of all this. A week ago or so, boyfriend & I had planned for him to come Monday-Thursday (because he would be busy all weekend with family from Korea), but instead, on Friday I told him not to come cuz I wanted to be a good student & thought I'd be pretty busy doing the take-home midterm & studying for the final. So I thought, hey, no take-home midterm, at least I'll be able to see bf. But of course, since my life hates me, boyfriend already has new plans that he can't break. Awesome. Really fucking awesome.

After my final on Friday, I'm going back to Arcadia that same day & not coming back until two days before classes start on Aug. 26th (coming back Monday, school starts Wednesday), meaning I can't see him until the following weekend. I haven't seen him in 2 weeks already, & I miss him like crazy already. Two more weeks is gonna suck big ass fucking balls.

On top of that, when I got dressed today, the weather forecast today said it would be a high of 80 so I wore jeans & a tank. I felt like throwing up all through class & a whole hour after that. I thought it was another repeat of the time when I had to be hospitalized, but I guess it was just the heat. When I got home I checked the weather again; it said high of 80 in the 10day forecast, but I clicked the hour by hour, & it was high of 86. Fucking weather forecast noobs.

All that happened by 1pm. Can you understand even a little how pissy all that made me? Shitty ass fucking Monday. Today can suck my big ass fucking dick. Fucking fuck. Asshole of a day. FUCK.


I'm done.

Piss the fuck off,
Kat

Dang, I haven't written in here in awhile. I feel like I want to start updating daily (or at least weekly/monthly, knowing how lazy I can get) just to keep a record of what goes on in my life & how I feel about it so that in the future, I can have fun reading about how immature I used to be. Dunno if I want to keep writing here or start a new blog on blogspot/wordpress/livejournal/whatever? Decisions decisions. Never used anything other than xanga to blog but the other sites are so popular they must have something going for them. I don't know. If you know, let me know.

In other news, my parents will be driving me back up to Berkeley in a couple of hours & of course I'm still awake now so that I can just knock out on the 6 hour car ride. That & I'm not really done packing yet. Boo. I'm bringing up a lot of new clothes/accessories (dunno when I got so interested in shopping, I used to hate it) & a shitload of food. Along with the usual unhealthy stuff (like Shin ramyun) I'm actually being semi-healthy & bringing a bunch of fruits & vegetables. Good job, Kat.

Hopefully I can start eating healthier when I'm at college & lose more weight so that my parents will stop bugging me about how much better I would look if I were skinnier. Somehow I lost like 5 pounds in the 3 weeks I've been at home since school ended. Cool, wasn't even trying. I've been practically feasting on my mom's home-cooked meals & eating out with friends all the time. I figure it's because I ate breakfast almost every day since I had to take my mom to work at 8am when I wanted to use her car for the day. Moral of the story: take your mom to work = lose weight. Works for me.

Speaking of moms, yours was great in bed last night. Lol kidding, this past Wednesday was my mom's birthday. I bought her a pair of heels. They were cute; I wanted them for myself. Shucks. Family ate GoGo Sushi in Pasadena for dinner. I love salmon sashimi. With a passion. Yum. Love my mom too. Happy birthday mom.

In completely unrelated news, I have so much free time now that I've stopped playing games. Too much boring ass free time. I spend a lot of time doing my nails, or styling my hair, or playing with makeup, or watching beauty-related tutorials on YouTube just to pass the time. When did I turn into such a fucking girl? Can't complain though, it's fun for me. I think that's why I enjoy clubbing so much now. Besides the dancing with my girls part, dressing up/getting ready is so much fun.


^ My first legal clubbing drink @ my first 21+ club! (RIP Cabana 05/29/09 ;<)

 
^ Clubbing again before Jo left for HK (grand opening of Apple Lounge 06/05/09) My hair took forever to do; couldn't get the volume I wanted. Womp womp. Turned out ok for my first try though.

Wow I'm good at rambling. I could keep going too but it's 7am & this entry is already long as hell. So, talk to you later, Kat of the future who will read this.


Love,
Kat

I lost my pencil bag ;< so sad. I think I left it in class (math 53 section in Evans) & when I went back it was gonezo. I've had that pencil bag since sophomore year in high school when my mom bought it for me in Taiwan. It was cute & brown & not too big & not too small & it said Lazy Cat on it & IT WAS THE PERFECT PENCIL BAG. Gosh. 5 years of beloved memories with that pencil bag. Lost. Boooo. We had a good run, pb.

I actually really am kinda sad that I lost it; it had all my favorite pens & pencils. Not to mention erasers, white-out, lead, ruler, highlighter, MY LOVE & CARE put into making the perfect pencil bag package.

Yeah you don't care. But I care. I miss my pb ;< Now I'm using this dinky old lead pencil that squeaks when I write & an ugly standard pink eraser, both borrowed from my awesome new roommate Kim. Thanks Kim, but I really need new writing supplies boooooooo.

Btw does anyone have a copy of Microsoft Word I can borrow? My new laptop only came with Microsoft Works Word Processor & I hate it. Let me know if you do please, you'll have my eternal gratitude.

The end.

Love,
Kat

Earlier my Internet was down, so I called Comcast to try to get it fixed. My conversation with the maintenance guy went a little something like this.

Comcast Guy: So tell me about your problem.
Me: Um, the Internet doesn't work.
Guy: Okay, can you give me the phone number of the account?
Me: *gives it to him*
Guy: And can you verify the last 4 digits of your social security number?
Me: *gives it to him*
Guy: And your name?
Me: Katrina.
Guy: ................are you a hurricane?

LOL. AAHAHAHAHALSJDKFKLSJADLKFSL I haven't heard that one in so long. ROFLLLLL besides that he was really helpful & he fixed my Internet. So yay for funny Comcast guy. Just thought I'd share.

Olympics opening ceremony this Friday! :>


Sincerely,
Hurricane Katrina

Hahaha this convo reminded me of a cute little entry I made back when Katrina first happened. Here, let me make it easy for you:

Thursday, September 08, 2005

dear everybody,

i'm sorry i killed thousands of innocent people.
i'm sorry i drowned new orleans.
i'm sorry i devastated the gulf coast regions.
i'm sorry i caused so much chaos.
i'm sorry i ever happened.

for some reason, maybe just cause i have the same name as the hurricane, i feel this urgent need to help out somehow. but i have no idea what i can do =( this sucks.


- katrina torng

Yeah, can't believe it's been almost 3 years since it happened. Crazy.
There was no point to this edit, I just wanted to reminisce hahaha.
