Infatuations.

I really do hate my classes this year… 19 credits (24 hours in truth) plus 15 hours of work and trying to go to the gym every day is a 20 hour ordeal… which leaves about 4 hours each night for me to sleep. No wonder I haven’t been to some of my classes.

Meanwhile, I have a little crush to distract myself from all this, plus the company of the Scandinasians and Company.

Party Update: will be having a ubergaybash for my birthday to celebrate the half year anniversary of my comingoutness.

Expect a penis cake/piñata/invitation. ; ]

 

BACKLOG:

Thailand and Europe. Both of these trips were pretty much some of the most amazing I’ve experienced. Not only did I meet numerous friends, the families that I have developed with people of these two countries will last for an extremely long time, I have a strong feeling. The pictures are posted online; there’s a total of 10 albums for Thailand and 7 for Europe. I had my camera literally everywhere, and i’m really glad I was able to record these two places in all of their glory.

GOAL: I need an iPhone by December, and a car by May. I am now working at Alchemista (Aromatherapy store), and it’s been pretty fun.

Art-time.

Recently, some of my artwork have been displayed in the Joseph Gross Gallery at the U of A. They picked some student artworks, and I was honored to have 2 (!) of my pieces displayed. It was pretty much the bomb. The clown is completely done in charcoal, and the face is a collage of magazine images, color matched to death.

Also posted are the 4 pieces I did, in acrylic, for my final art project. They are of different women using different paint techniques; for more meaning, ask me about it. =]

And this is my art instructor’s own show in the Joseph Gross Gallery, “Women are Dangerous”

Cheers! I’m off to Europe and Thailand, more pix on the way =]

IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER

 

16 MORE PICTURES AFTER THE JUMP.

I just finished my homework for the week

KICK ASS!

I finished 3 drawings, 10 pages of physics homework, a trad paper, read my water proposals, and the only thing I have to do are homework for the week that I haven’t received yet. YAY! 

Oh, and check the facebook more pictures are up. 

I got a new car.

2008 Toyota Highlander Hybrid with keyless entry (and power-button engine start), 3 row seats, 14 cup holders, 10 spoke wheels, power everything, backseat AC, maple accents, and backup camera. So cool.

 

Today’s so boring…

…I slept til 4 PM.  

 was at Abhi’s house til late, it was his birthday party. I originally talked to Ashwin about planning him a surprise party on the same date, getting a group of people to buy him a Wii. Well he found out about the surprise party, but we still managed to surprise him with a Wii. Well, I guess I’ll have something to play next semester aside from Abhi’s X-box 360. The party was fun, lots of dancing, saw my friend Vince out of nowhere, met some cool people, Indians galore, the whole she-bang. =]

 

The day before I hung out with some Chandler kiddies, namely Carrie, Michelle, and Bruce. I’ve seen everyone I needed to this winter. It was quite refreshing and I’m ready to go back to school. 

Dunno why I’m listening to the Lion King Soundtrack, but it’s pretty neat.

So I think I may not be going back to China this summer. Instead, I may be heading either to London, Paris, or New York for the latter half of the summer after Hungary/Romania and before the Flinn Retreat. Being raised in an urban setting and switching to the suburbs once I got to the United States has made me realize that I am, deep inside, a very non-nature-y and city person. New York is tempting since it is cheaper to fly there, plus I can get lodging for a little cheaper since I know people.  

 Hee hee, I just saw that my blog’s listed on the Flinn blog. =] 

Happy Oh-eight, motherfuckers!

New Years Eve was fun; I was at Jared’s for a tiny bit to say hi, and then i ran over with Stacey, after Benihana’s, to Anjali’s and then Luis’s. Left to go celebrate New Years Eve with the East Side Asians [aka motherland folks] then back to Luis’s for more Indian + Corona + Other people fun.

Here are pictures =D

So some resolutions, just for the hell of em:

-Drink smarter.
-Draw more.
-4.0
-Save money for a car and China.
-Help out with family a bit more.
-Meet some more cool people.
-Eat more sushi.
-Learn to use a camera well.
-Get Laid Maybe a steady relationship.
-Karaoke?
-Hang out with my friends a little bit more.
-Last but not least, check and delete the 80 messages in my Voicemail.

<3

Well, since most people start new blogs on New Years Eve…

…I’ve decided to start mine on Christmas. Yay new blog!

Well, important things from last half of the year:

- I bought my fur-sweatshirt. =P
- Got straight-A’s first semester; woohoo, no more math!
- Met some pretty extraordinary people that I call friends.
- Um, Sushi and shopping?
- Photoshoots, karaoke, coffee, and Asian lovefests!
[Oh yeah, and the Flinn]

Okay, so there are a lot more things that made me happy this year, but I won’t go on — I’m boring myself.
