Yakisoba is Taking Over My Life.

i mean that literally, but i bet i can squeeze an analogy in it. i was introduced to this delightfully easy-to-make, not-quite-ramen-but-just-as-good dish about a month and a half ago, however it wasn't until recently that i've become obsessed with it more than i am with harim's korean ramen (s.ko only). $1.99 for three packets. three packets = three meals. now, unless you intend to eat more than one pack per meal, i would say two dollars for three meals is a very good deal. fry an egg (sunny-side up preferably) to put ontop and i'm satisfied. it's so simple, and so good. that's all i need, really.

so here's my analogy, i told you i could make it happen. afterall, yakisoba is the miracle food. my life has finally began to resettle. and although there isn't much, i have all i really need. i have found my happiness in some very important people, a pet, and my growing love for my hobbies. i have a bffl<3 we know it, others know it (they better know it) and although i don't show enough appreciation and love i hope she'll know it's always there. i really do love hanging out with this girl, she's really the only one who could make me laugh till my muscles are in pain. and when she's doing something so stupid i know she can't do in front of anyone else but me, that shows a lot<3 our love for cooking, arts and crafts, photography, uno and jenga is all we need to keep ourselves entertained for hours. then there are times when we just walk (or drive) around telling each other whatever it is that needs to be let out, that feels really good. i hope that for life we'll stay as close as ever that even our dogs will grow old together. how romantic.

i got something very unexpected this summer. it's still kinda crazy when i think about it, never would've guessed anything would happen between us. i meet this random Asian Guy at the billiards one who later i found out was one of Those Asian Guys (oh, one of them). we're only acquainted every once in a while for almost two years and suddenly we're hanging out almost every day. how nice =) who knew how good he'd be for me. when before we never bothered to say anymore than hello and how are yous. it feels like he's everything i wanted that i never really had before. i hope i deserve this.

so there's how yakisoba is taking over my life. but i'm okay with it because it tastes good.
it's late. i'm tired.
goodnight.

Effects

i could be wrong.

will our future change us, or do we change our future. would it all be nothing but a memory.

A Day for Cupcakes

These were the most colorful cupcakes i've ever seen and they were GREAT. icing+food coloring clearly mix well together. for wayne's 18th birthday (what better way for a big boy to celebrate his 18th birthday than to eat 18 pretty cupcakes). i think baking is best for a wet, cloudy, rainy kinda day. too bad we didn't get to rent a movie. and we didn't get to make our sushi either :\ oh well. its okay, the colored icing made up for it! i took loads of pictures but indoors doesn't have the best lighting for cameras so most of them turned out blurry and a bit too yellow/blue for their own good. not even photoshop can save them now :(
So it's the last Saturday night before the end of holiday break (and probably the last blog before school begins again) so it's time to discuss. i'm satisfied with this break, got through lots of things i wanted to do. well, not that much but did some things i didn't plan to do either and had fun. did lots of random crafts (aka cooking). hung out with people, saw the people i wanted to see and slept till noon at least once. overall, these two weeks were very well enjoyed and spent and i think i'm ready to go back to school. now obviously, i can say this with so much more ease than just about everybody else since my schedule is almost like not having school at all. whatever, let's recap. break started with winterball which was awesome with or without the music. i think i liked sitting on the ground next to empty chairs better than being shoved on the dancefloor. the next thing i clearly remember must be christmas morning, when the family + my brother's gf took a walk by a lake and i got to take a shitload of beautiful pictures which i should (somehow) post up sometime. that day was freaking pretty and i'm actually glad i walked that mile with my parents around. later, went over to uly's and kicked jess and take's asses in marioparty (just cause uly and i pwn all in that game). christmas in the park. ice skating under the stars. benihana's. mimi's for breakfast. roasted marshmellows (and failed attempt at s'mores). urban and the mall. ORDERED MY CANON REBELXT ONLINE. RECIEVED MY DIANA+ CAMERA IN THE MAIL. i'm so excited for my two new cameras; now someone tell me where i can find 120 film. plenty of things accomplished over two weeks.

it's too late to blog,
continued later.

First of 2008


"Lately I've been hoping you can stay with me,
And I could hold you close 'til the end of time, yeah.
Maybe someday we will grab some change and run away,
but for now I'll learn to say goodbye."
