Booty
So, yesterday when the lover came over to pick up the cookies I made for him that he forgot the day before, I greeted him at the door with an eyepatch and said, “ARGH MATEY!”
Then he goes, “Are you trying to steal my booty?”
Then I proceeded to laugh for a good ten minutes. I’m still laughing at the thought. This is why we are together.
Sort of looking for a new theme, but having no success. Partially because I will most likely make changes, and I’ll keep making more changes… which will take up time that should be used to do other things that need to get finished.
Time is going by way too fast and it needs to slow down.
“And when I first met you I never would have imagined that I would have such strong feelings for you. I never would have thought that I would have dreams about you or miss being by your side or get butterflies in my stomach when someone mentions your name.
When I first met you I never thought that I would love you.” —(via eletheowl)

Feeling sort of defeated today. Its just one of those days.
So I sliced my finger today in lab
but its healing relatively quickly.
Listen
Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera - Moves Like Jagger
By the way, Adam Levine is pretty sexy.
Just sayin.
Totally exhausted after 2.5 days in the wilderness for my fishing trip.
I caught my first fish though. PIctures to come!
This morning has been perfect.
Its been pretty chilly, but sunny, and I love it like this. When its not too hot, and not way cold.
Went out for a drive this morning to see how long it would take me to get somewhere I need to be tomorrow at 8 am. I really like driving sometimes. It really takes my mind off things because I like to just play music and I’m just cruising along and all I’m really thinking about is, when that green light is going to turn yellow and I’m going to have to stop because I won’t make it when it turns red. You know what makes it frustrating though? When the hand is blinking and its green, but there are no numbers counting down to when its going to turn yellow, so you don’t know if you should slow down a bit or speed up a bit to make the light. Thats the only thing I don’t like about driving city.. that and people who cannot drive.. but those people are everywhere.. and I know what you’re thinking, “you’re asian, you’re probably the bad driver.” However, I am proud to say that I am actually pretty decent. I have yet to be in an accident and I don’t usually do shady things on the road unless I really have to, which is rare.
Its only 8 am, but I felt surprisingly awake when I woke up this morning at 6:30. I want a little more time to eat breakfast tomorrow morning, so probably going to wake up around 6:15.
The rest of the day is going to be some light review, yoga, cleaning, and just relaxing myself before tomorrow.
Feeling ready to take on the day! I guess that hasn’t happened in awhile.
And looking forward to after I finish tomorrow. Remember, good or bad, you’ll get through it as long as you keep trying.
“I think the reason why twentysomethings are so fixated on age is because we feel a pressure to be a certain way at 23, at 25, at 29. There are all of these invisible deadlines with our careers and with love and drinking and drugs. I can’t do coke at 25. I need to be in a LTR at 27. I can’t vomit from drinking at 26. I just can’t! We feel so much guilt for essentially acting our age and making mistakes. We’re obsessed with this idea of being domesticated and having our shit together. It’s kind of sad actually because I don’t think we ever fully get a chance to enjoy our youth. We’re so concerned about doing things “the right way” that we lose any sense of pleasure in doing things the wrong way. Youth may be truly wasted on the young.”

Sometimes I look at my life and only see the things I don't have or the things I want.
And sometimes I fail to remember all the things I do have and that I should cherish. That sucks. I wish I could enjoy the moment more, but sometimes its hard, especially because I’m the type of person that plans - plans for all the things I want to do, and all the things I want to achieve, and most of the time it just causes me stress because things never go the way I intend for them to go.
I’m having one of those moments though right now. Even though I have something big in my life coming up, I feel surprisingly calm (how long will this last?) and serene. I’m most afraid of failure and honestly, thats what really stresses me out most of the time, but when I step back and think about it… in 20 years, if I’m where I want to be and where I intend to be, then why would it matter if it took me a little longer, or maybe even one or two failures to achieve? It doesn’t.
I’m only 20 and I’m already afraid of my life passing me by and that I’ll be wasting my time chasing my dreams and getting old, but if its something I truly want, it shouldn’t matter. And who is anyone to judge me right now? Because in the end, I’ll be where I want to be, judged or not, battles lost or battles won.
Sort of a crappy day, but I'm trying to make the best of it.
Dinner
Made pasta with broccoli, tomatoes, onions and garlic. Cooked it with balsamic vinegar and added some ground cayenne pepper (it seems I add that to everything lately).
Lastly though, SUPER PROUD OF MYSELF… because I added zero extra salt and it still tasted fantastic.
I guess back to studying.
I'm going to do this. I'm going to get it done and get it done well.
