PHOTOROLL !!      Wednesday, November 26, 2008 -- ni-ni

Went to Barnes and Nobles with Eri...bought some art supplies before hand...had some coffee...pored over some art / fash rags......









Daddy's birthday present...drew and painted him up one of my girls. I think I'll call this one either Fern or Eve. Was originally supposed to be a drawing of my mom, but I made her cheekbones TOO severe...more severe than my mom's....aka.....CREEPILY severe.

Daily Musings..      Tuesday, November 25, 2008 -- ni-ni

Hello Hello! So I wore my hair up for the first time in FOREVER and it just felt weird...even with the signature hair ribbon... I truly think it might be time to get a hair cut, but I'm thinking long hair suits my face shape so much better than a shorter length.

I am so excited for Thanksgiving! The season of fall to winter signifies a season of amazing food. Glutton food. Comfort food. Yummy food!

Exhibit A:

A delicious bake-for-yourself chicken pot pie and sautéed broccoli with a pecan/walnut/cashew accent. Yum! Mom sure knows how to win me over.....
Okay, so yesterday I went to see TWILIGHT and was ecstatic to find that it was NOT the cheeseball movie I thought it would be...especially that scene where Edward keeps going, "Say it. Say it out loud."  I was happy it wasn't at all like those awful previews haunting the television screen. The movie was lovely !! It was a lot funnier than I expected, and and I loved that !! Jasper and Alice were of course my absolute favorites. Alice has been my favorite character since book 1.

and Jasper I just absolutely loved because he's beautiful......
I went with my usual movie-seeing crew: my cynical, doll-faced Colombian and my darling, innocent Caucasian. All three of us make an ethnic salad !!

Doris has taken to using a Beatles Yellow Submarine tin lunchbox for a purse these days.....

We did our usual Starbucks run for some goodies. I got an espresso truffle and a pumpkin loaf. I was absolutely rigid with hunger...I hadn't eaten since the early morning. Mom made this amazing pot roast with carrots and potatoes and onions..I felt gross and manly I suppose for eating a slab of meat the size of my fist.
Hence, the starvation.



Christmas is already in the air and I am slowly but surely getting into the mood! Starbucks already switched to their holiday cups, which means it's only going to be a whirlwind from here. Come Black Friday and everyone will surely be swept up. I actually have money now so that makes me very very willing to go and burn a crying hole in my wallet !! I got paid $68 yesterday for tutoring last week....And that's only the beginning !! I get $17 an hour for tutoring a friend of mine...too generous I sometimes feel, but I'm not complaining! Her mom made me the most amazing iced latte this morning. I could have cried.... but I was too busy crunching on ice cubes.

^^I saw Lena Fujii had her new Starbucks holiday cup picture up, so I thought...why not? i'll take one too!
I fear I'm becoming too much of a coffee junkie these days. I still can't handle the straight, no-nonsense black coffee... I'm thinking it's an acquired taste....but I swear it's like my breath is lethal. Coffee is dangerous. But I'm not one to resist delicious drinks.

Which is probably why the idea to have a banana milkshake popped into my head the other night!! Ahhhh it was so delicious. Banana and vanilla...I think that would be my ideal chapstick flavor, other than creamsicle. Erica and I spent 2-3 hours just lounging at the dining table sipping the thick stuff. It was so sweet and tasty.
And I suppose now it is already Tuesday and I need to get my act together doing some work:

1. Siddhartha AP Cue Card
2. Secretarial work Dad gave to me from his company
3. Driver's Ed [Yes yes, I'm so lame for not having started this yet...but there was never any need till now]
4. AP Stats Semester 1 Project
5. Finish College Applications before Nov. 30
6. Buy Daddy's Birthday Present

So much to do..so little time. College is always constantly looming. Random snippet of the lives of the average teenage girl these days...or at least for me, Taylor and Doris:

And "Boris" is completely out of my life. I have no feelings for the matter. I talked to him on the phone and there was no magic. No fireworks. No feeling whatsoever. So good-bye silly boy...you're meaningless to me!
Now I'm going to go watch

warning: image heavy!!      Saturday, November 22, 2008 -- HANNIE

WOW it has been a long time since I have blogged! nia's being doing all the blogging this week... the semester is ALMOST over! only about two more weeks?!?! I can't wait! I registered for my classes, and it was seriously HELL!!! sophomores get last priority. don't you HATE THAT? i had the PERFECT schedule EVER, where I would only have to go to school on mondays and wednesdays...but NO. i have to go to school everyday AGAIN! boo, what a freaking waste! and i'm going to take 17 units... I don't know how that's going to work out.

on a lighter note, i saw TWILIGHT !!!! i went yesterday with sarah-chan, peter, and my kareshi ... it was such a lovely day.. we did SO MUCH! i bought a couple christmas presents! i feel so proud of myself that I'm getting a head start. I bought a huuuge gift basket for my kare's mom from Bath & Body Works! I should take a picture... but it's all wrapped up in cellophane and looks weird if i take a picture. but i discovered the magic of SHRINK WRAP !! how amazing!

this little puff of joy is an early christmas present from my kareshi! doesn't it just scream, "pick me up!" ?


 haha, we thought this would be cute. <3 note: look how clean his windows are!

we ate at a little korean restaurant called Korean BBQ. hahah how original, right? it was mine and kareshi's first time eating korean food by ourselves, but certainly not peter and sarah-chan's !!

mmm, we got bulgogi beef and spare ribs. there were a bunch of side dishes, but we weren't brave enough to try them all. i actually found a side dish i liked! and my kareshi ate the kimchee...blechh.

these people are my FAVORITE COUPLE ever! so kawaii! seriously made for each other.

before we went to get food, we stopped by a japanese supermarket to stock up on snacks for the movie later on in the evening. we ended up buying more than we should have, of course! and also we met up with our other friends, lavinna, phuong, and khoi ! we also stopped at the Daiso, [ a Japanese 99 cent store ]...and i didn't buy anything! i am seriously so proud of myself!

all of our gooooods! mmm.

so after our japanese excursion, we headed over to the mall where our movie was playing! we shopped around a bit, and i have to say, I WALKED IN WEDGES FOR 12 HOURS! that has NEVER happened, my feet usually hurt after like THREE hours!! i had to cheat a little and sit down, but other than my pinkie toes dying, i now have bragging rights! *sigh* how lame i am, but its okay. ^___^

this is me and sarah-chan. look how kawaii she looks! and those are her new boots that she snagged a GREAT deal on!

so for my kareshi's christmas present, he said he wanted black skinny pants... so we bought some at the Vans store. he of course had to try them on.. and i guess he has this "ritual" that he has to try out his clothes by dancing in them first hahahah.

mid dance..

OKAY, to go completely off topic, last week was an international coffee hour where all the different exchange students can come and we all mingled and hung out. warning: image heavy!

jingjing [from China], me!, lavinna-chan, sarah-chan, Sue [from Korea], Ritsue [from Japan]

me, Ali [from Germany], and sarah-chan!

my besties!

my two favorite international guys! haha. Hitoshi [from Japan] and Minyong [from Korea] !

ok! the end. love hannie

Sauna on my face      Saturday, November 22, 2008 -- ni-ni

Moshi Moshi! Hannie left for work at 12 pm today....and she is going to blog later tonight, but I'm just going to empty my camera before it gets too late or I get too lazy...


^^trying to channel a character of Audrey Kawasaki's ethereal paintings. Sickly.
I am finally finally on my Thanksgiving Break! Yesterday dragged on at the usual snail pace right before freedom finally hits... An entire week off from school. ^_^ I am so relieved. I checked out some books from the school library before I left for some medicinal reading...


^^Mister Sock Monkey couldn't help making an appearance.
Anyway...I baby-sat these children the other night and this girl was absolutely darling with a capital D. She loved the camera!! I told her father that she and her other siblings were very good for me...although that could have been a bit of a white lie...they were crazy! I swear popcorn will need to be surgically removed from the carpet if anyone ever asks...ugh. Which brings to mind the fact that I cannot make popcorn for crap. The first bag I completely burnt. The second, I was so afraid of burning it that I took it out too soon... causing only half the bag to be full. The last one was okay...at least the bag was full !! 


So now I am contemplating about scheduling my week. I am tutoring a girl every single day this week except for Saturday...[getting paid $17 an hour!] in Chemistry and Algebra 2. Her mother wants me to put her through bootcamp hell so that she can get her feet back on the ground...I really hope so! I want her grades to rise !! Other plans consist of HOPEFULLY going to my bestfriend's house to record some music with him.  We write it, find some beats and acoustics, and then we sing! I'm not sure how my father feels about allowing me to go to this boy's house alone though....but it's not like that. We're like Nick & Norah minus the weird sex scene, aka, we love each other, but
we're not IN love.

Last night I finally used the face machine thing my mother bought me last year. I honestly thought it was a blender when I first got it...but...It's a humidifier type thing that has hot steam, or cool mist blowing out of it. And an ionizer! [whatever the heck that is]....apparently it ionizes the water to become miracle fluid for your face...? I fell asleep on the hot setting and I swear I almost burnt my nostril off...It was a very nice spa treatment!!





And I just finished watching Lovely Complex [the live action] !! The cutest thing I've ever seen !! Now I'm obsessing to see TWILIGHT ... no, I haven't seen it yet ...and then Australia. Simply because Hugh Jackman really IS the sexiest man alive.

Photo Plug      Tuesday, November 18, 2008 -- ni-ni

 
Cannot type very much for now...Eri is on her way home from soccer tryouts and I have to change into some comfy clothing and then mum is whisking me away to baby-sit for Mckenzie and Emily...two darling little blue-eyed angels around the age of 6. ^_^ I love them.
I have another baby-sitting job on Friday night...a good relief seeing as how my wallet is obscenely scant at the moment...I'd love to blame it on the horrible economy like everyone else does...but I'd be a liar. I'm just terribly excessive with my money...very very bad habit! But hey, what is a girl to do in this day and age?
Anyway, here are some photos from the past...I never posted them of my anti-homecoming with Sarah!


 
 
MOCHI MOCHI MOCHI MOCHI MOCHI. Mochi-monger for life
And of course you cannot forget my favorite: Nakamura-san!!! At our haunting ground, Shien of Osaka.

Recently...      Monday, November 17, 2008 -- ni-ni

Wow. It's almost been a week since I've blogged! Hannie left me a comment saying I should...so here I am! Commandeering her laptop...

Hmmm...the past week has seen a lot of inner thoughts and turmoil of the mind...but then again, what else is high school? As senior year begins drawing closer and closer to midterms...I've actually just learned to let things go. Why worry about useless things in the now...when in a few months I'll be worry free? ^_^ So hello hello, nuisance-free nia! My only concern now are my grades.


^^favorite finds :) and a nice drive to Barnes & Nobles for coffee with Hannie ^_^
We literally stood in line forEVER trying to decide what to buy...sugar cookie, or no sugar cookie? hot peppermint mocha, or cold green tea lemonade? Finally deciding upon cold green tea lemonade...we find that they are all out of lemonade! And unfortunately for the five other old people in line behind us, we wasted about six more minutes contemplating Blended Creme ["ugh so so bad for you"] and something hot ["you're seriously going to start sweating"] all over again. Fufufufufuuuu.


And the book came in the mail FINALLY from Borders!! It's the third in a series...right after Blue Bloods and Masquerade [think GOSSIPGIRL, but with Vampires...Upper East Side, the whole shebang]. I'm still in the middle of Masquerade, so I'm conveniently leaving it on Hannie's nightstand for her reading pleasure. I can't wait to find out what happens though! If reading were the equivalent of eating, I'd probably have died of obesity at the age of 9. Books are magnets.


School has been a doozy. STATS is actually the calmest AP class I have at the moment. ^^Nicky S. made me laugh on Friday when he adorably whipped out an Indian-style sit right next to my desk as people were filing in and out of the aisle. He continued to talk with me and I couldn't help but snap a picture !! I wish I had gotten one of his shirt...It said I Love San Francisco. Instead of the word "love", however, it was a bright orange heart symbol. And in the middle of that heart it said "hella". Such a classic dork in the best possible way.
Anyhow, the love department is looking scant again. I'm not interested in a boyfriend at all...it was just nice to have someone to dwell on for a while..."Boris" was acting a bit sketchy...passing me by without a single glance in the hallways... making phone conversations completely awkward [ohhhhhh it was terribly awkward on my behalf] which was weird because we had such a nice time at dinner...why do men think they can march into someone's life and then slam the door as if nothing had happened? GRAWR. Chauvinists. Anyway, my soulmate and bestfriend Kyle talked me through it and made me laugh and recommended a Helio Sequence song...is it strange to think someone a soul mate and not think of them romantically at the same time? I love him, just not in that way...I think soul mates are meant to be people you instantly connect with and can rely on for all time. They just click.
Anyway, I do still have hope for Boris...but.....

Christmas Shopping !!      Friday 金曜日, November 14, 2008 -- hannie

  Who has started Christmasクリスマス Shopping?!?!

I KNOW I HAVE ! It's so early, but I'm just so excited! So if you're reading this, Ni-Ni, please do not snoop around my room....heehee. So lately I've been hoarding coupons like crazy, and quite frankly, it's super fun! I feel like I'm getting a little obsessive with my coupons too...the other day i thought i lost one and i was searching frantically everywhere in my room, but it was in my wallet the whole time -________-"

At my work they started playing christmas music　クリスマスの音楽...I think that's a little too much, but i work in retail so it's kind of expected. All the coworkers are complaining about it, but I secretly like how they're playing christmas music. I remember last year during the Christmas season, after a long day of working, I would still drive home with my christmas music blasting in my car. 

OK! so there's this AMAZING restaurant　レストラン called Extraordinary Dessert...it's a restaurant full of desserts! Seriously, they deck out their cakes with real flowers はな　and gold-leaf foil! mmm, it's a little pricey　ちょっと高いですね, but well worth it! Everything is rich, but not too sweet　あまいい. I got the Shangri-La (translated to paradise, but I don't know what language...I just know that's what it means) Okay, here is a picture　しゃしん of my yummy cake　おいしかったケーキだ!

pretty　きれい, huh　ね? It had raspberries and strawberries with guava creme filling, vanilla cake, raspberry and white chocolate sauce...it was actually very light, just how i like it. the cake was nice and moist, and not too sweet! mmm! oishikatta ! おいしかった！

ok love hannnnie!

Feel Good Inc.      Wednesday, November 12, 2008 -- ni-ni

You know, maybe that's what I should call my name brand if I ever get my own designer label. Pfffft. A nice bite off from the Gorillaz.... but an adorable kind of name.


So there's the newest modification I've finished...took an old dress and made it better! I've really got to get a kickstart on those other dresses before Thanksgiving break starts...Right now I'm working on a navy blue/evergreen/red plaid jumper dress with a sheer cream pleated skirt ... ^_^ Let's hope it earns me some $$$$ for XMAS present shopping... I stopped by the counselor's office to send an e-mail to the rest of the counselors to let them know I was open for tutoring anyone...I'm so desperate to get an oddball job I've pretty much made myself a piece of meat to a bunch of hungry, possibly stupid underclassmen. I just hope I can raise their grade WITHOUT getting any ugly scratches.
Anyway, an update on the aftermath of yesterday....
It was completely successful, no break-necking trips over our disgusting-billows-of-black-pilgrim-death-dresses.

. It was pretty crazy cramming everyone on stage as well. The chorus along with the band? Eeek. It was like breathing through a tube. But it worked out nicely ^_^


The best part of the evening however...was going out to dinner with my parents and a certain somebody I couldn't really stop watching during the concert ^_^ He plays his instrument very well. We'll just call him Boris, mmk?

I don't really know what the situation is right now, as in...if I like him or not...but it's kind of that point where I get the warm fuzzies whenever I see him...and it's been at least a year since I've ever really felt that. I was starting to think my heart had turned into a block of uncrackable, Alaskan ice. I mean, I don't exactly want to be speed-dating when I'm 75. So this is nice !! All that I know is that it was a good dinner....not to mention we were starving till kingdom come.

Well, enough about mushy-gushy-ooh-la-la stuff. I'm bored with it already.

Tomorrow is Thursday and I feel like the weekend is eons and eons away. I think I need a cup of java or some good, strong-brand tea.


I really just feel like curling up on the couch, as cliche as that sounds, and buying the first season DVD of Lipstick Jungle. I LOVE Victory Ford. She is seriously so adorable and her lifestyle is superb and her personality is just so windy and her clothes are so chic and she's asian! ^_^

I'm a Monster      Monday, November 10, 2008 -- ni-ni

A milk tea monster!!

Moshi Moshi! So okayyy here I am, eternally exhausted with purple bags under my eyes

...but I'm telling you, my eyes are looking bulgier than normal. Gross. 
I know that sleep is considered like an essence of life or something crazy like that, but I just feel like it's a waste of time. Okay...maybe I should be getting a little more beauty sleep than I am accumulating right now and I should heed my mother's warnings... but I just feel like the day doesn't get fulfilled if I go to sleep at 8:00 p.m. or my little sister's freaky 7:00 personal curfew. I feel like if I just cram a handful more hours in, I can finish my homework AND do recreational things I normally can't during the school day. Hence, insomnia.

It's quite terrible, you know. But I think I messed up my brainwaves into staying awake through the wee hours of the night. Now it's like...as much as I longingly look at my adorable little sleigh bed, even attempting to crawl into it under the covers, the sleep stick just doesn't slap me around enough until about twelve midnight. Aaaaaaaach. I need some hot tea.

On a lighter note...Jeffy Hui gave me the most adorable cupcake thing today! It looked like a little cream flower. I seriously believe he could be my mate in FOOD. We share so many stories and snacks and recipes. Well...he gives ME the recipes...like that amazing absolutely amazing egg custard tart recipe..
For now I'm eagerly awaiting the premiere of the next Gossip Girl ..!! Gyaaaa! I don't have school tomorrow due to Veteran's Day... but I have a Veteran's Day Concert I have to sing in...which means I have to whip out those ugly pilgrim dresses. A certain boy has to see me wear it...ugh. Terrible.
But I'm going to change out of it the minute the performance is over ^_^ And I think he is coming over for dinner tomorrow...
And re-reading this post I sound like such a youngin'. Since when did my worries become sleep and boys and food?

Rain!      Sunday, November 9, 2008 -- hannah-chan

I woke up this morning to RAIN! FINALLY we have cold weather! oh my goshh, I am so tired of 80 degree days in October... who has heard of that!? I checked the weather and it said warmer days later on during this week. wow, what a downer! but at least we have a couple days of cool weather! :D This morning was a little tiring. I woke up at 6 :( My sisters and I are in Bell Choir at our church and we had a performance, if that is what you call them. Last night after work I got home and just crashed. I was extremely tired ! But work was a lot of fun, the time went by extremely fast. I really like my co-workers, they're like a third family to me.

Christmas is next month! I seriously can not wait! Nia and I already decided we are going to put up decorations in the near future... we want to be extra festive this year to make up for our lack of festivity last year. I was even tempted to download some cheesy christmas music, but since it will play nonstop at my work the day after Thanksgiving, I thought i would spare myself for two extra weeks. It's weird, this will be my last christmas here for a while! Next year this time i will be in JAPAN ! how exciting, ne!? ahhh, less than a year before I leave... ^____^ I am contentedly satisfied.

I have come to the conclusion that I am extremely happy with how everything is playing out in my life. *knock on wood* I actually have money in my bank account! Hopefully things stay like this! School is almost over...only about a month left! Then I pick my Spring Semester classes on Nov. 20. i hate how sophomores get last priority >.<

My dad's birthday is coming up! It's so hard picking out a present for him. I'm actually tired of buying clothes for him. I know it disappoints him whenever we buy him clothes because what kind of fifty-year-old man wants clothes!? I bought him two tickets to go snorkeling and kayaking for father's day, but he hasn't used that voucher yet. and i think it's way too cold now...hopefully they haven't expired yet. So i decided this year for his birthday (which is on Thanksgiving day!) I am going to buy him...chocolate from Godiva! I guess that's kind of a big deal for my family since my mom is a nazi about health. Oh well, we can indulge a little. There is a statistic that says everyone gains weight during the holidays....so why not live up to those standards? Especially for my dad, my mom is extra strict. If he even touches a cookie, she goes a little ballistic. WOW my poor dad and his slow metabolism! But my Dad is pretty skinny since he works out with my mom almost everyday. He has your typical white guy beer belly and chicken legs. hhahah sorry dad.

Yesterday I took Nia and Erica to the mall and we browsed Charlotte Russe, a store we don't have much taste for. I actually found a pair of SLIPPER boots! They are SO cute and I wore them the whole day today. Downfalls were: my feet got a little sweaty and I kind of slipped on the floor a little [ well, a LOT and it came close to endangering my humanity ] , but it's worth it because my feet were cute! I want to wear them out of the house and the only way I think i could is if i put duct tape at the bottom so that the soft soles of the slippers don't tear and rip. what a fun DIY ! Of course, I took a picture.

kawaii desu ne!? cute huh!? I actually saw some like these while browsing through Nia's japanese fashion magazines. And the good thing is, they were only $14.99 !! They also had these in red and purple, but i loooove these ones. They also had other styles too, but these were my favorite ^____^

This is me wearing them. Please avert your eyes from the messy unmade bed and gross room and also my lack of make up. Today was a lazy, lounging day around the house.

look at my boots! Victor's mother bought some boots and she gave them to me! I only paid ten cents for them! what a steal. Oh yeah, and i like how I'm taller than Nia in this picture, which NEVER happens... we both don't look too happy because it was so early this morning :( I didn't even put on make up! anyways, this is the longest blog entry in the history of konnichipuu and quite frankly, i don't have anything else to blog about. so.... the end!

p.s. I PUT UP A COMMENTING THINGIE so now people can comment our blog posts! ^____^

Purchases      Saturday, November 8, 2008-- nia

Today was the golf tournament fundraiser in the morning! I only had to stay for an hour and do nothing and smile a lot and make hundreds of dollars towards the China trip this summer ^_^ Yay. It was so cold in the valley! I had on some Ugg booties and a sweater but it was the knit type with many large holes....it was basically like a net with wind blowing through it. *shiver shiver*

Went to the mall with Erica today to help her choose some clothing for school...it was darling seeing her dress up in the dressing rooms... and for once it was HER dragging ME to the mall rather than vice versa. My, my how things change in a matter of months. In truth, I despise the mall and think people interaction there should be limited. I don't know if it's the Neolithic roots in my mind or something but I'd rather just keep to myself. People are just so hawkish in glances and I hate how they believe it's a constant contest....whyyyyy?
I used some of my leftover birthday giftcards [BORDERS, NORDSTROM] to buy an adorable shallow, wide-brimmed mocha mug and a book.
 
 
  


It's the sequel to Blue Bloods by Melissa de la Cruz. The Waldenbooks across from the Teddy Store is so quaint inside! Everything is so cramped and smothering, but you feel like it's teeming with information and literature. Not to mention the two ceiling-to-floor spanning bookshelves filled with manga next to the young adults section. [Why do they assume manga should be loped with adolescents? I'm sure I'll still be into it when I'm well into my twenties].....
It was lovely. And I was surprised the most by the fact that they sold Pocky [normal & strawberry] and Hello Panda under the counter...very interesting.

Speaking of the Asian culture subject...I changed my desktop to Yuuki and Zero. Ahhh the love.

So I was really looking forward to writing an article about how my school prides itself solely upon football and ONLY football... leaving no room for $money$ to fund and enrich other activities. Not to mention the bus system needs some hardcore work. These days in America, three to a seat is impossible with McDonald munchers running rampant in the streets. I almost fell into the aisle the other day but thank goodness I had someone's hip-skin to wedge me in place. *shudder shudder* But apparently my school got a $2 million grant to better the after school activities. I'm not complaining, just shaking my head sadly that my article opportunity got pushed away. Rawr.

Erica dug up some photos of Daddy when he was my age [17] in her closet. He was quite good looking ^_^



Daddy's the one with the large "G" on his shoulder. I must say, he's pretty stylin'

And he's not sporting those undies for fun [well...for SPORTS yes]...he was a wrestler in high school and apparently a good one to have won ^_^

He makes me proud to carry his name.
And now for some SPAZZZZZZZZZes in the car. Me and Eri just totally bored and channeling our inner Miyuki.


Creepy.

Cookie Time!      Friday 金曜日, November 7, 2008-- hannah-chan
