Downtown Vancouver - A stroll around the city

2014-06-24T00:03:00.003-07:00

Robson and Granville

I had some errands to run, so I found myself wandering around Downtown Vancouver on

a gorgeous sunny day :) My favourite part about the summer season - blue skies.

Do you do that? Just wander around the city. There's something so

exciting about finding small "gems" throughout the city.

Interesting architecture, charming city people, and unexplored food journeys.

It's a damn shame, but I haven't been doing much photography recently.

I admit that I'm mediocre at best, but there's something so pleasing about snapping photos.

Inside Waterfront Station

Waiting for somebody at Waterfront Station.

Can I we just take a moment to appreciate how damn wide

the lens on the Canon Powershot S110 is?

I lurv it

JJ Bean Coffee

I walked passed this coffee shop that had grass on the roof.

Does that make the roof rot? I don't know :p

I don't fix that stuff for a living.

Either way, it still looked pretty rad.

At McDonald's

I thought I would try to brainstorm some video ideas with a cup of cheap joe.

Did it work? Absolutely not. I was completely distracted by EVERYTHING :D

I know. Mucho productive.

There was a small green bug on my bag. I liked the contrast.

It's very BAM. Look at me. I'm a bug.

Yenno whatI mean? .... ok, pro

These. Mother. Fuckers.

They were everywhere, outside of the resteraunt.

Kept distracting my from my work.

Tis all

Fast Food Problems (2) Free Coffee Week - Kahara Thursdays Ep.5

2014-06-19T19:51:00.001-07:00

Free coffee shifts always seem to pass by so slowly. All day long, people are hounding my ass, asking where their coffee is.

Customers: WHY THE FUCK HAVEN'T I GOTTEN MY COFFE YET?!? AKJHGKJAH

What I want to say -

What I actually say: Sorry, just hang on a moment ...

It's JUST coffee.

It's as though some customer have an agenda to fulfill:

Be as bat shit crazy as possible in public.

During break time -

But when I finally get off work -

BYE, BITCHES!

And, that my friends, is free coffee week in a nut shell.

The Rogue Kitchen & Wetbar

2014-06-18T13:49:00.001-07:00

I went to Rogue for my friends birthday.

She insisted that I get a drink with her for her b-day

Note: I do NOT usually drink

(nor do I do drugs. People usually ask me)

Why the hell would somebody name a beverage "Cougar Juice"

....

that's disgusting

so, I drank it LOL

I shared food with my bestie

The food was way overpriced for my Chinese cheapo standards

My friend ordered the burger, and I got the

lobster mac and cheese

$18 for mac and cheese :'(
I cri evrytiem

The mandatory group photo

We headed over to a karaoke place afterwards,

and then we went for drinks at McDonald's.

We played

That "Dirty" (Blank)ing Card Game

the best game ever, if you have the same humor as a 13 year old

Got back home at 2am, and woke up late orz

Happy Birthday, girl

Indirect Answers:Just tell me "Yes" or "No"

2014-06-12T17:49:00.000-07:00

Holy crap. Why is it so hard for some people to simply answer

"Yes" or "No"

Fundamentally, it seems like one of the easiest types of question to answer.

Literally, only a once syllable response!

How do so many people fuck it up?!

When people start explaining themselves rather than telling me their answer,

I feel like the duration of my

life is being depleted

on some

bullshit, insignificant, irrelevant answer.

Maybe that sounds a bit extreme.

But, if I wanted to hear your elaborate excuse of an explaination,

I would have asked for it :/

I shouldn't have to prompt somebody to

respond to me with either "yes" or "no",

but maybe that's the only way to get a direct response GAAAH ;____;

SUCK MY DIDDLY

Penis Tomato

2014-06-07T02:15:00.006-07:00

I'm gonna start actually making this more of a

daily blog. I'm not going to school during summer,

so what the fuck else am I gonna do :(

In case the penis tomato struck your curiosity, here is a picture :B

I also got a new compact camera.

The Canon S110 in white.

Ideally, I would have gotten this in black, but w/e

BECAUSE INSIDE, WE'RE ALL THE SAME

#NoRacism

jks

I haven't actually tested out taking any pictures with it yet,

but it takes great camwhore shots ✌️

Also, the continuous autofocus on video function on

this small beauty is a beast. Really appreciate the continuous autofocus

and the low light ability on my new compact cam.

I know the S130 is out, but I don't want to waste all my bank T____T

Random findings around town

Just. Look.

His hat is freaking massive!

I was speed walking home on a rainy day (no umbrella, of course), and caught sight of this gentleman

in his ridiculously large hat.

Looks dumb, but in that moment, I wanted it :(

On a less rainy day, I was biking around and accidentally took these snaps.

I have an increased appreciation for the blue sky

after experiencing the horror that was Beijing.

Beijing air = Lung cancer

That, kids, is science.

And a random snap of a old lookin' red car.

Ok, bye.

Why do people have kids?

2014-06-05T15:46:00.000-07:00

I don't want them.

Kids.

I find it so strange that some people would VOLUNTARILY submit

themselves to the horrors of child birth.

AND THAT'S JUST THE BEGINNING! As if having your lady bits stretched out wasn't enough, then follows the endless nights without sleep.

The crying, the shitting, the agony.

I don't care how cute babies look when they're in neutral.

Once the motors start churning tears out, I'm out.

Absolutely can't stand the sound of babies crying.

It literally gives me an anxiety rash.

I sit there in frustration unable to shut of the source of the heinous sound

"Oh, come on! You were a baby once, too."

Might be what some of you are thinking now.

And you would be right. HOWEVER, that was not by choice,

and it does not make me hate babies/kids any less.

Some people also argue that

kids an take care of their parents when they are seniors.

Screw. That.

Plan A:

When I'm old and decrepit, and unable to take care of myself,

I'll just move to somewhere that support euthanasia, and be like

"Bye mothafuckas"

I don't want anybody helping me wipe my ass.

"Maybe it's just financial support"

Please see Plan A B|

Kids? I don't need none of that!

How NOT to fix Samsung Galaxy S4

2014-05-27T19:20:00.001-07:00

Ello my nibbletsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssz

Here's what happens when you give me a screwdriver and a few cheaply made eBay China cellphone parts. In case I didn't make it clear enough in my video:

I don't know jack shit

about phone repair

Here's what happened to my phone:

You know when you hold a pee...

And when you finally sit down to piss,

it's like a raging storm exits your body.

Well, I didn't piss on my phone.

but mother nature fucking did.

I just got off the Ching Chong version of a Grey Hound, and it was

rain was pissing from the sky.

God, just hang a hose over my head, why doncha :/

It's not that I haven't seen rain (I live in a rainy ass city)

I've just never had to walk through such heavy rain.

Despite my lack of knowledge, I decided to stick my dick

in Shelly, and see what I could do.

I half succeeded

I basically just followed a YouTube tutorial.

Thank god it was YouTube, and not Pinterest, otherwise

this would have been a complete fail.

It works, but poorly. It takes a FULL day to charge my damn phone. Faulty parts!

Lesson: Don't buy ratchet parts sent from China.

Shit, the flex cable was sent in

a fucking zip lock bag that was lodged into a yellow bubble wrap lined parcel envelope.

It easily could have been bent the wrong way in post = =

Should You Go to Prom? - Kahara Thursdays Ep.2

2014-05-25T16:33:00.000-07:00

It's prom season!

While most of you high school seniors are probably super excited about the big day, I would suggest that you calm the fuck down and lower your expectations. Chances are, 9/10, prom will not meet your fairy tale expectations. So, I'm doing you a favour by bursting your bubble now. You're welcome :)

That's about to be your dream of prom ^ Brace yo self

Prom isn't all picture perfect like you see in the theatres. That beautiful slow dance? Chances are, YOU WON'T HAVE IT WITH PRINCE CHARMING

Planning on doing the boom jiggity jiggity with your prom date?

If it's just for the sake of doing it, I beg, please don't.

Just don't don't don't - that's stupid.

Maybe this is more of an American thing, but there are so many stories about teens

doin' the dirty on prom night. I live in a pretty Asian dense area, so most of the kids I went to school seemed pretty conservative .... well, as far as I could see.

I didn't necesarily hang out with the people you would label as being the "cool kids"

Some might call me a....

I mean, no, I'm super cool :)

There are plenty of cute promposal videos floating around on the internet, but that

doesn't guarantee that you will be on the recieving end

of one of these choreographed proposals.

Gotta hand it to you dudes, though. Setting up this shit

looks this a flat out bitch and a half.

Like for that second one, how the hell do you get everybody to practice without havingthe girl know?

You just tell her that everybody in the school is practicing for some dance competition?

A lot of people might be wondering:

How do you know so much about your prom? You didn't go.

My friends filled me in.

Instead of going to prom, I decided to meet up with my friends

after the event.

LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HIS SHITTY VENUE

JEWEL BALLROOM CAN SUCK MY LADY DICK

My friend and I had to hardest time finding that damn

place, because whoever designed their website
fucked up

On the bottom of their website, they have their address.

That's to be expected

HOWEVER

when you CLICK on the link to launch google maps...

I know you're all smart people, so I'll let you spot the difference on your own.

Lemme tell you, it was a cold night, I spent the longest damn time
to find that shack.

I've personally emailed those fuckers at the ballroom to fix it, and that was a year ago.
Guess what they haven't fixed yet.

Hey, Jewel Ballroom

Should you go to prom, hope you have a good time.
Just keep your bits clean ;)

Fast Food Problems - Kahara Thursdays Ep.1

2014-04-18T18:32:00.000-07:00

This time, I rant about a certain problem I have with working at a fast food chain:
Extra sauce

Generally speaking, work itself isn't that bad. It's the customers with emotionally low EQ that put my day in the shitter. Like I mentioned in the video, my boss has instructed us burger servers to charge customer who request for extra sauce. Sometimes I get so much shit for just doing my job.

BOSS: Make sure we're enforcing the new policy.

$0.10 for extra sauce.

ME: "Yeah, man. I can do this, no problem."

Little did I know, the people would not take kindly to the new policy.

They would not take kindly to it at all :(

I usually work in the drive-thru
Let me give you a brief run down on how our particular drive thru is set up

As seem in my beautiful diagram, it is clear drive your fat ass through the various station to get your grub.

During the course of any given shift, at least one person asks for extra sauce at the second window.

When I tell people it'll be $0.10 for the sauce, they get all ...

In my head: "You're excused"

"Yeah, I just like asking people for $0.10 on the occasion"

BUT I ONLY HAVE CREDIT/DEBIT CARD

I hear this one a lot, and I believe them. But that isn't gonna stop me from charging guests on the pin pad. We've got pin pads covering every inch of this joint!

Only got card? Oh, I'll let you use card!

The customers are all...

Of course, before they leave, they ask for my name, because they're going to "report me to the head office". I'm soooooo sorry I'm doing my fucking job. You just paid $10 to get fat, what's another ten fucking cents to get even more fat?

Get this, a lady told me this today:

"Are you serious? We live in such a rich country, and you're charging for sauce?"

My goodness, lady. Do you hear yourself? If we live in such a wealthy nation, I'm sure you can afford to pass off a few dimes on the dollar to get sauce. If you think about it, you're paying to get another product. When you go to the supermarket and buy dry pasta, it doesn't come with a free can of pasta sauce.

Maybe I'm being biased, because I work for the company, but to all the customers out there, please stop taking your rage out on the middle man.

It's dumb, and changes nothing (except for the degree of joy in a minimum wage employee's day)

Wengie's singing is ... bad

2014-02-15T20:24:00.000-08:00

Sometime last year, I subscribed to a YouTuber, Wengie. She's got a cute Barbie doll face, and equally adorably edited videos. Wengie has multiple channels, on one of which she posts videos regarding fashion, beauty, health, and food. What I didn't know was that she also posted song covers. I had time to kill, so I decided to check them out.

... so that happened. Apart from the fact that it has a weird auto tuned sound, it is overall weak and breathy.

Verdict: Bad :(

Sorry, Wengie! Like your vids, just not your singing.

P.S. guys, let's stop dick riding, and just call things as they are. Mkay?

Rowdy in the Liberry (Library)

2014-02-10T10:41:00.002-08:00

Handed in my English proposal essay today :( I kind of ended up bullshitting the whole the entire thing (as per usual). Class ended early since the prof didn't have anything else prepared for lecture today. I went to the library with my classmate, Tommy, and sat in a booth until he left. Not long later, a bunch of guys from high school walked by an joined me.

It seems that students from my HS habitually congregate in this section of the campus library. Every time I visit the second floor of the library, I can always spot, on minimum, one familiar face.

I have a few new people through this group. Today, I was acquainted with Thomas today. He kind of remind me of my coworker, Jack. Anyways, he had a box of almond chocolates in his backpack, and he kindly offered me one.

Kind gesture, but my diet bet started yesterday. For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, there is website called dietbetter.com. It's pretty cool. Basically, everybody who is interested in losing weight can pool their money into a pot. Those who don't reach the tEverybody who can lose 4% of their body weight over the course of a moth, will be able to split the remaining.

oh snap, librarian told us to shut up :( Sad lyfe.

There is this really fun camera app called LINE Camera. I recently found out that there is

a function called "beauty". I don't know if it was newly added, but I only took the time to

find out what its function was a few weeks ago. Turns out I can PHOTOSHOP on the go.

Bigger eyes, smaller jaw line, brighter skin - witch craft!

I got bored and decided to demostrate the amazingness of the application

on my reacquainted friends.

Before and after

Okay, it doesn't look any better. But I didn't do the editing in my defense.

It was ALL Tate, mkay?

Anyhow, it's Wednesday, which means that I have a flipping 5hr gap to kill. No matter! I least it gives me time to blog ^^

I want to try and film vlogs weekly, but between school and work, I'm finding it difficult to both film and edit. If only my laptop wasn't so shitty! I have so many gaps between classes, I could probably get 2 videos done weekly. Alas, NO MONEY LA! CANNOT BUY NICER LAPTOP

However, I did get a new case for my phone <3 br="">

Super late post LLOLOL

McDonald's Poutine - Yum or Yuck?

2013-12-14T23:53:00.001-08:00

Recently the fast food powerhouse, McDonald's, launched the good ol' Canadian poutine in my area (Vancouver). It was something I was exciting to try, but did it hold up to my expectations?

Price: $3.99
Quite affordable, as it falls within my typical $5 budget for junk food. However, compared to an order of large fries, this costs a lot more! I think large fries are only around $2.50, and you get a lot more deep fried goodness.

Portion: Small
This is a pretty tiny portion of frits, but keep in mind, this was intended to be a side order. Regardless, I don't feel that the portion of poutine warrants the $3.99 price tag. I might pay $2.99, but I don't feel like I'm getting my value.

Taste
I'm sure most of us are familiar with the famous french fries served at Micky D's, but how do they taste in poutine form? Well, not so good. I like my poutines served with thick steak fries, fresh out of the frying vat, because they stay hot enough to melt surrounding cheese curds. The cheese in the McD box simply doesn't get ooey gooey and stringy! Sure, there's the option of asking the staff to nuke it, but what if you're on the go? Everything about the McDonald's poutine is just okay. The cheese is there, but it doesn't melt; The gravy is warm, but lacks a lot of flavour; The fries are golden, but always award winningly fresh. Although, you have to take it with a grain of salt (no pun intended) that anything mass produced won't have the same delectible quality of something made at a ma and pa joint. Belgian Fries will always have a soft spot in my heart.

Would I get it again?
No. I'd rather just get large fries. :( The value just isn't there!

CAR RAN OVER MY PHONE 100 TIMES

2013-12-07T17:49:00.000-08:00

NEW VIDEO UP HUZZZAAHHH >D

You read that correctly - MY PHONE IS FUCKING DEAD

It all happened on the worst day possible.

It's Friday morning, and I'm heading to school.

As per usual, I'm rushing to pack all my shit into my bag just before leaving the house, because ain't nobody got time for prepping in advance! I shove my calculator and pens into my bag first, because I have a midterm exam to write. I then put my keys and cell phone into my shallow, shalloooow, shaaaaaaaaaaaallllllloooow pocket. Before leaving home, I grab my notes to study as I walk up to the bus stop.

This following part of the story may cause you to think that I DESERVED to have my phone demolished, but ain't nobody got time for being proper in the morning!

I J-walked

( """ T________________T)>

yep.... this is what I get for breaking the law every morning.

Totally sucked, because it was raining too!

My favourite colour is pink, but I don't want to see it on

THE FREAKING INDICATOR STRIP!

Water damaged innards, yuummm

I was thinking of attempting to fix my i727, and realized I had lost the button for the volume rocker. I went on eBay to see if I could find a cheap replacement part

TELL ME WHY THIS PIECE OF PLASTIC COSTS MORE THAN MY LUNCH!!

It's barely larger than the average nail clipping = = smd

If I do end up trying to fix my phone, I'm just gonna chop up an eraser and hope for the best HAHAHAH

At least I still have the power button :'D

I'm pretty sure the USB port is smashed :x

On a brighter note, doesn't the smashed Gorilla Glass look kinda pretty....

What does the pho say?

2013-11-27T22:22:00.002-08:00

I was in that strange part on the internet again.

"What Does the Pho Say?" Is a Vietnamese parody of the popular viral video,

"What Does the Fox Say?"

The song is about, you probably guessed it, PHO!

This guy is serious about his noodle soup! I kid you not, the entire damn song is about making pho, and enjoying it. On a good note, there are some pretty cute girls in the video, dudes. Pho is already freaking amazing, but paired with cute girls? DAYUM

I meant to post this during Summer, but I never got to it HAAHHA *laaaaaazy bones*

Better late than never, right?

Started the day early in the morning in good ol' downtown.

Sel had to pickup her student ID

Inside the school. They had a super nice view. Honestly, I could just sit there

and stare at the picturesque scene all day.

We went blueberry picking afterwards, but I told my friends to get off

at the wrong stop, so I we had to walk down to the farm. Oops!

We walked by this house, and it looked like a cobblestone house DONT JUDGE ME

Random railroad shot. Mandatory when you walk by one - YOU HAVE TO TAKE THIS PHOTO

I'm so amazing, I managed to catch this willow seed with my bare hands.

Mad inner ninja skills keke

Finally at the farm!

I invited a total of 12 people to go on the outing, but only two people were free.

Whatevs. Camwhore all the same.

Went to Aberdeen Centre and ate some fried squid from Wo Fung in the food court.

omnomnomnomnom

Sorry, I had to.

Iron Man iphone case

Flying Wedge pizza, yumz. Kinda pricy tho, but soooo good.

We got bored, so we began playing games.

"An Face"

Why are we all posed like this? One of our good friends, An, posed like

this in a studio portrait when the photographer said "Silly poses, now!"

Needless to say, An looked possessed.

Super LG happy jumping shot!

A strainger saw that we were struggling to jump in sync and took this for us orz

Nice photo. LOL. I'm pretty sure I put these girls through a lot of agony,

because I got them to wake up super early to hang out with me :)

BoA - Action // Namie Amuro - Ballerina

2013-10-23T20:30:00.002-07:00

Recently, I have had a couple songs playing on repeat.

BoA - Action

This was released quite some time ago, revealed to the public on July 7, 2013. I'm majorly bummed that she didn't promote this track, because it would have been amazing to see choreography to the high energy song. The dance pop beats beg to be danced to!

I was excited that find that dancer, May J, created this energetic choreo! Due to the lack of promotion, a very limited audience has heard this song Q________Q Thank goodness at lease one choreographer graced Action.

Doesn't this song just make you want to get up and run? Just me? Regardless, bomb song!

On another note, the part that goes "Let's talk about fashion, let it out my passion, who cares about your action", reminds me a lot of the old school video, Shoes.

Namie Amuro - Ballerina

Looking for some eye candy? Here's a buffet for your retinas. Amuro's new music video for the single Ballerina was filmed in collaboration with Vogue Japan and GUCCI. EDM beats paired with gorgeous editorial shots, AND fabulous shoes and handbags. Need I say more?

Prom - or there lack of

2013-08-14T23:13:00.002-07:00

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!

2013-08-07T22:54:00.002-07:00

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

2013-06-14T00:54:00.000-07:00

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

2013-04-30T21:51:00.004-07:00

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

User: VINTAGEHIME

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

FACEBOOK

She would mucho appreciate it.

Tis all for now

Pie Day Update

2013-04-08T23:43:00.003-07:00

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

2013-03-13T21:53:00.003-07:00

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

2013-02-01T15:48:00.001-08:00

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.

Belgian Fries//Workin'

2013-01-31T01:09:00.001-08:00

I went to Belgian Fries on Commercial Drive after my midterms :D

No better way to celebrate than with a bowl of carbohydrates and lipids.

YUM YUM YUM!

For anybody curious about their menu, I have given you the privilege of having it

right here. On average, everything on the menu would

set you back around $10, so it's quite affordable.

If you're feeling extra frugal, I believe they offer free drinks with

your poutine on Tuesdays (must be confirmed). I got myself a nice cup of coffee > <

I got myself the Tunisian Kabab.

While fighting the large beast, I found a small hair (like an eyelash)

tucked under one of the fries. My friend had suggsted

that I complain and ask for a new one, but the employees are so nice

that I completely failed to do so :')

Keratin never did any harm, right?

After an 1hr+ of chow time, I finally finished my meal. If you want to grab

a bite to eat, and you are small and Asian like myself, I highly suggest

that you bring a friend and share one portion. The quantity of fries

in a single bowl . . . woowee. It's hard to handle! I couldn't

bareto look at food for the rest of the day > 3 <

But I like to pretend I'm manly, so I felt the obligation to

eat er'thang

I'm working on a new video *cheering*

My goal is to get decent grades, and start to pick up on my blogging

and vlogging once more.

I WILL BRING MY INTERNET PRESENCE TO ITS

FORMER GLORY

Not that there was much presence to begin with ...

I PROMISE that this video will be up within a weeks time.

And by "promise", I really mean "hope" :)

Bed time
