Prom - or there lack of

Prom: The single night that high school students are given the opportunity to dress in luxurious textiles whilst eating expensive food in a beautiful venue [insert magical chimes here]

NOT!  Let me break down what prom is for those of you who only know of it's romanticized definition.  Prom is an excuse for people with social lives to get together, get sweaty on the dance floor, and drink their guts out.  For some of you, this may sound appealing.  For anybody like myself, that sounds like a shit night.

YOU: You're just saying that, because you're cheap and have no social life

Correct :)  But I proudly have no social life.

YOU: What did you do instead of prom?

I stayed at home at studied for the physics exam coming up . . .  HAHAHA as if.  I can't study to save my life. 

Initially, my plan was to go out with a group of my friends who weren't going to prom, but they were so lame, that they wouldn't even go shopping with me, so I went out with WEEEENIE 

We started our day by trekking downtown and browsed around various small boutiques, all of which had amazingly fashionable and equally pricey clothing  ;A; [so sad, man]

Just look at those tights.  LOOK AT THEM!  THEY ARE SO AMAZING e n e
Me gusta.  Me mucho gusta OTL


After shopping around Gastown, we went to eat some junk food at Red Burrito

[super embarrassing story]
As you can see, my friend and I were seated by the window.  I started dancing
to the song playing on the radio, and this attractive guy WITNESSED ME JAMMIN' OUT
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!  




 So I tried to recover with the head nod.
GOOD THING HE NO COME INSIDE LA! LOLOLOL

We continue exploring downtown, and walk into this "mall" that smelled
like the used furniture/antique shop my grandpa used to bring me to.

 For whatever reason, we decided to walk all the way back home, which was 
a whopping 8.5km journey

I was so damn tired afterwards ;_____________;


Dr. Suess quote.  How cute.


En route home, we walked by this insanely run down home.


[creepy girl painted on the door]


Makes me think that whoever what wearing the boots just disappeared!

Winnie and decided to kill time down at the Chinatown Nightnarket (which by the way, still sucks)
I bought a bubble tea from one of the stalls, and it tasted like doggy doo doo :( 


 At last, I met up with my buddies after their prom ended, and convinced them to go out 
with me at 12am.  It was only while brainstorming of potential activities that 
I remembered none of us were of legal drinking age, and that 
we're all prudes.
Quick!  Where can I go that:
  • is open to minors
  • does not sell alcohol
  • is open late night
  • is cheap
BOOM

McDonald's

and thus begins the

[Prom Night Fiasco]

 I convinced all of my friends to go to McDonald's so we could chat about what happened at prom.  


My friend confessed that the chicken was awful

After buying the food, we realise that every table in the restaurant is covered in trash, and everybody is too busy serving the guests to come out and clear out tables.  Time was ticking, and I WANTED MY DAMN CHICKEN NUGGETS, so I cleared out the long table in the middle.  That, being the only clean are in the restaurant, invited every drunk guest to sit next to us.  

This one German guy comes up and greets us with, "Hey, what's up?".

And I just had to reply with"
"COMO ESTAS!"

Shit hits the fan when he asks to take a picture with me, and decides to pose with his arm around my NECK IN WHAT LOOKS LIKE A CHOKE HOLD.

The German Guy's friends come up and start hitting on my friend who was sitting next to me, and starts checking her wrists.

Foreign Dude: So, where's your stamp?
Friend: Huh?
Foreign Dude: For the club!
Friend: I'm 17
Foreign Dude: ... Oh.

Needless to say, we left when the chance presented itself.
It was an awkward night to remember.




My other guy friend said that he didn't realise that I felt uncomfortable with the situation.
One of my guy friends said that had anything happened in McD's, he would have booked it.
He later tried to recover by saying he would have protected us with his bubbles...
blowing soap solution bubbles OTL  I can't even...
GOOD TIMES, AND I DIDN'T HAVE TO EAT DRY CHICKEN
GUESS WHO SAVED $85 AND STILL HAD A GOOD NIGHT?

bye. pk

Graduation!

I'm going to be throwing out a bunch of posts right now, because I haven't had time to update.

For those of you who assumed I am an elementary school student, a university student, or a working teen mom, I'm actually just a regular old (graduated) high school student.


Let me just say that the commencement ceremony was absolute
BULLSHIT
Ok, so everyone will be graduating.  Why does it have to be such a tedious process - -
I hate how twelfth grade if so massively sensationalized. 


Of course, I musts take the mandatory family photo.
My sister didn't come, because my mom was afraid that she might start
crying half way through the graduation ceremony.


How do pretty girls curl their hair all the time?  I was cussing the whole monring while getting
ready, because I thought it was way to damn early to look pretty.  For heaven sakes,
some girls have the energy to look like freakin' Victora's Secret Models early in the morning.

BULL.  SHIT.


On another note, I thought it was cool how my friend had a necklace with $20 bills
stringed onto it.  I never asked, but I guess it's some type of family tradition when
walking across the stage.


Ladies in da house!  Sista is so cute!  Terrible two, they say.
She has her moments.

 

A few days before graduation on the last day of school, on of my physics classmates
decided to throw a small party for our teacher (because he is so awesome).  It was a
sweet idea, but I the party seemed to be more for the students than the teacher.
They say that it's the thought that counts though, right?

I guy who "organized" the party bought a couple ice cream cakes and pop.
I few people took turns cutting the frozen dessert, most of whom looked WAAAAY too serious.
How can you not feel some sense of fear when there is another person in the room gripping a knife
who looks a teeny weeny bit angry.

Needless to say, I offered to cut the cake instead, but she declined (darn it).
Luckily, she was needed somewhere else, so I nabbed up the job of cutting the cake with my 
buddy, An.

(Safety hazard!)


We ran out of plates, so we had to use cups... so "organized" LOL
Props on the guy for taking action though, I approve.

(PS- I'll be pushing out a bunch of posts I intended to post in the past, but never got to)

Make Some Drama Before You Leave

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Boy am I mad!  Here's the deal, my friends had a video assignment for law class that they weren't very excited about doing, because creative intuition does not rank high in their skill set.  I offered to help film and edit their project (at the price of a few free meals OUO;; ).

PROJECT: Explain why the voting age shouldn't be lowered.  Interview teens at mall about political issues to justify. 

Part of the assignment was to post the video on YouTube, and share it with as many people as possible.  After editing and uploading, my friends posted it on various Facebook pages.  To my surprise, one of the interviewees found the video, and was very upset with how she was portrayed.

Here's the deal, kids.  The majority of teenagers that my friends and I spoke with at the mall that day were very clueless about current events, and answered most of our questions with nonsense.  Yenno what?  Had I tried answering the interview questions myself, I would probably sound pretty ignorant, because I fully admit that I know zilch about politics and current events!

Back to the interviewee situation.  The girl, let's call her Lucy, wanted the video taken down, because she feared that it might hinder her chances of getting into uni . . .  Child~ unless you're going into political sciences, I can almost guarantee that your lack of knowledge in politics will do you no harm.  It really bugged me how she still wouldn't accept having the video up even if we covered her eyes.  Lucy contacted my friend through Facebook to express her discontent, so naturally, my friend went to the her Facebook page to figure out which person it was.  While browsing, my friend found that Lucy had a note posted titled "LA COCK".  Lucy claimed it was a "poem".  To me, it just looked like a list of inappropriate sexual innuendos!

This was all I could imagine while reading her Facebook PM

Lucy: HOLY. What part of me telling you I DON'T WANT MY IMAGE TO BE PART OF THE VIDEO don't you understand?! First of all, you did not blur my face out, you covered my eyes. A lot of me is still showing which I AM NOT OKAY WITH. Secondly you said you PRIVATIZED it. WHY AM I STILL ABLE TO SEE THE VIDEO WITH ME IN IT. Seriously, if you want to still use the video, cut out my parts! I AM NOT GIVING YOU ANY RIGHT TO HAVE MY IMAGE IN THAT VIDEO. NONE OF ME IS ALLOWED TO BE IN YOUR VIDEO. This will be the last time I'm telling you to give me my personal privacy. If you continue to still disrespect my rights, I will bring this attention to my parents and the police as you have violated my rights.
P.S. You mentioned somewhere this project is for law? Have you not learned anything in your class?! Have you not learned about rights and privacy?! Video taping someone and uploading it into the internet WITHOUT THE PERSON'S CONSENT IS BREAKING THE LAW.

(Let me just say, Lucy dear, that your netiquette is ratchet.)

My friend: Speaking student to student, you have a note that says "LA COCK...". If you are worried about your digital footprint, I'd advise you delete that.

 In the end, we took down the video to maintain integrity.  Indeed, we did not have consent :p
Such a shame.  I'll re-upload the video without her part, given that she probably only had 14 seconds of screen time.  She is defs an acceptable loss.

I don't think that I revealed Lucy's ID in this post . . . :<

Alright PEACE, HOMIES

Weight gain WHYYYY

What's up everybody.  The weather has been rather nice recently!  Of course, that's with the exception of the crazy wind we got yesterday.  The cold wind penetrated my leggings, and molested my legs.
Recently I gained a ridiculous 10lbs.
MY LIFE IS RUINED = =
I know a good amount of people who say "I eat a lot, but I can't gain weight".
When I look at the scale, I can't help but call bullshit.
I munch on some snacks, and suddenly I'm +10lbs.

Anyhow, I've been eating more veg as apposed to salted cracker nuts :'(
My one true love.

The only thing that bothers me about eating salad is the prep work.
In all fairness, it's just cutting up vegetables, but compared to tearing open
a bag of crisps, it's much more "strenuous".
*LAZY*

To ensure that I stay on my diet, I've been tracking my meals and exercise
on MyFitnessPal (on Android).  I have a habit of just eating a lot when I'm entranced on the computer screen.  Overall, massively helpful.

If you wanna be diet buddies HYUK

My "pet dog" is so cute :')
I've been going out for walks with her since the weather is so lovely.


 It's nice to admire the pretty flowers while strolling around the 'hood.




A few weeks ago, I was a little bit obsessed over matcha stuff,
so I started to bake some goodies.


 Needless to say, I have since stopped ... stupid scale said I was FAT.


On another note, please vote for my friend by liking this picture on
She would mucho appreciate it.

Tis all for now

Pie Day Update

Pie Day was a month ago, and I've finally found the will to update you all on what happened :D

Did I manage to win the pie recital?
Did my friend finish eating the pie in the pie contests?
Did either one of us manage to achieve redemption for the face of all calc students?

LET'S FIND OUT!

 
 My friend, Winnie, donated enough money to participate in the pie eating contest.

Based on the participants of the pie eating contests, 
I learned two things:

1.Very few people want to donate to the
math department

2.Men are not very generous.

All four of the contestants were girls, and all of them 
donated less than $5 pfft


Her mission was to be the first to finish eating the beast above - with nothing but her face.
DUN DUN DUN
The MCs realized some 2 minutes into the contest that
everyone would be sitting there until July at the rate the girls were 
pie eating with their faces.

The girls were given the okay to eat with their digits,
and hands immediately dug into the slimy apple goo.

All but one girls began to slow down....


...and this chick won.
 
Damn, was I pissed!  I was cheering Winnie on!
We were supposed to win together, and pie teachers together :'( 
At the same time, I was glad she didn't win, because
that shit isn't pretty!  
 
If I were a dude, I would not touch a girl who
wins an eating contest.  Sorry if that offends you, but, c'mon.
^ DOES that shit look sexy?  Hmmm?
That's what I though.
 
Good on that girl for going beast though. *clap clap clap* :)
 
(I don't mean the winners face is ugly in case anybody gets defensive,  I'm talking about shoving food into your mouth at that rate)       


I was standing behind stage waiting to recite pi.  It was only 
then that I realized the severity of the situation.

I was up against the most powerful math specimen of all time
.
.
.
.

THE FOB

In all fairness, the participants backstage might have
been CBCs (Chinese born Canadian), but how many CBCs would
voluntarily participate in a pi recital?
I'm an exception, because I'm a maverick KEKEKEKE



I'm looking at the sheets that some of the kids are holding,
and they've got numbers written down that I haven't memorized yet.  T o T;;

I was thinking:

"Oh shit, I'm so screwed.  They're gonna
annihilate me with their FOB powers."


The first contestant screwed up REALLY quickly.
One of the male contestants recited numbers at light speed, but was asked to slow down.
A girl in a purple sweater recited a LOT of numbers - I was afraid that I couldn't beat her.


They called my name.

I grabbed a chair and sat down.

"3.14..... 95.."


"That's enough
.
.
.

you win!"




HAHAHAHAHAHA!  FOBS AIN'T GOT SHIT ON MEEEEEEE.
I asked somebody to help me take pictures of the pie-ing, but I had set
my camera on manual focus, and she didn't now how to
take snaps :(


Sorry, folks.  I'll see what I can snag from
some yearbook kids if they let me LOL


Anyhow, I pied my calc teacher and won a chocolate TI calculator.



THAT WAS MY PIE DAY
Have a good one.

Pi Day Considerations

My school is holding a math event for Pi Day.  A handful of lucky students will have the opportunity to hurl a yummy pie at a math teacher's face >)

There are 3 ways to be "lucky"

1)  The math department is collecting donations, and the highest donor will be entered into a pie eating contest (yumyumz).  The winner may yield the all mighty pie.

2) Got a crazy good memory?  Recite as many digits of Pi possible.

3) Pastry chefs, suit up, because a pie contest is also being held to determine a winner.

I kind of feel like memorizing the digits LOL.  As a kid, I didn't have internet, so I used to go to the library every day to get myself a piece of the world wide web.  Sadly, each patron is limited to 60 minutes per day.  In order to maximize the amount of time I could spend on the computers, I would memorize the pins on the library cards of friends and family.  Methods of obtaining said pins involved asking kindly, and secretly copying down digits when my friends went to the washroom.

List of pins I used to use:
My own
Aunt
Dad
Olivia
Kevin
Brian
Nancy


LULZ  Hacks on, brotha.

The librarian eventually caught on, and banned my sad little 10 year old butt from the computers = =

Good times.


While we're talking about technology, HOW DO I GET MYSELF A PIECE OF VIDEO EDITING ACTION AT SCHOOL?  I see promo vids for school events, and I think to myself "I would of done that differently."

Not better .. - Ok.  Maybe better - but that's my completely subjective, not-meant-to-be-offensive opinion.  Am I trying to save my "A" double snakes from a hoard of butt hurt Warriors?  You betcha!

I could be the salt and pepper to the promo team!  If I was responsible for videos rather than web design, I might still be part of the school store.  ALAS, reality plays a different tune.

Anyhow, wish me luck for the recitation!

I'll keep you posted about the results when SPRING BREAK STARTS :D

Miracles


By some wonderful miracle, I have managed to finish editing a video HAHAH!
My voice sounds much whinier - you've been warned.  Hopefully, it doesn't surprise you too much to know that I'm rather narcissistic.

I'll try an whip something up for next week :)

Speaking of miracles, I managed to beat a few of my friend
in the calculus midterm exam *angels singing*  I'm so terrible at calculus
that. . .  well, I'M JUST SUPER BAD.
