46. Palin = WTF?

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 02:06:22 GMT

I fucking hate Palin. Reading about her and her opinions make me 10 kinds of angry.

45. "I've always relied on the kindness of stranger"...

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 08:50:04 GMT

said Blanche Dubois in A Streetcar named Desire. Even though, I don't really understand why she said that because from what I've seen of the movie, she was rather abused by people. D:

Anyhoo, this quote is so appropriate though for my situation today. After hours of frantic searching for my lost puppy, I was noticed by my very kind neighbor that he found the dog who's now warm and safe. I can pick Snoopy up tomorrow.

I love people today. ♥

43. Tomorrow we dine in HELL!

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 06:44:54 GMT

...well not really, we're just going to the premier of "Twilight Sequel: New Moon." I kinda think the result would be starkingly similar though. Long line in the dark freezing cold. Hysterial squealing fangirls. The spectacular crap that will be the movie. My friend is planning to be drunk for this.

I can't wait! :D

Sarah~ that's me and you...readying for Twilight! I can't find a pic with the chicken wearing a Siberian hat tho. :(

40. For Soba's Big Day

I shall be sending you good mojo the whole time, love.

Be strong.

Be awesome.

Be-lieve! (ok, that's kinda lame isn't it? hurhur)

38. Random post is random

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 09:13:03 GMT

I ran today. And did not want to die. Obviously it must have been a very cold day in Hell.

In the process of overhauling my LJ so awesome post about Halloween will be coming in not a so soon future.

Fandom is tiring serious business. So everyone please kindly shut the heck up.

Made a much needed phonecall today. Shall do another one tmr. I seriously hate calling/ talking on the phone.

I still dislike Jin. =D

37, Man, I so ship this!

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 05:56:04 GMT

36. I'm updating you just inform you all that....

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 08:00:10 GMT

I love my brother.

♥
And OMG, Googlebooks FTW!!...Hi there, you hard to find copy of French children book you!

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 05:01:42 GMT

I kinda want to visit you guys now....hurhur

33. My hands are small....

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 06:19:34 GMT

I just donated money to the Red Cross's International Relief Fund due to all the recent hearbreaking tragedies taking place around South East Asia.

It feels a little bit too little and too late in a way.

Honestly, it saddens me that I only step up with these things when actual disastrous events had already occured. Ideally, I should donate once a month, which I attempted to do before, but that didn't last long at all :/

32. FEMINIST RAGE!

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 09:11:24 GMT

Taken from a recent Newsweek article:

According to a study from the General Social Survey by economists Betsey Stevenson and Justin Wolfers of Wharton, despite three decades of economic growth in America, men and women are no happier. This fact has been lost in the hubbub over the finding that while women were happier than men in 1972, they are not now. Conservative commentators rapidly blamed the women's movement, inferring that perhaps, as Rush Limbaugh has said, feminism really was just a misguided way to "allow unattractive women into the mainstream."

These jerkwads need to be punch in the face, yes?

31. Fandom = Conglomeration of Stupid

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 01:40:13 GMT

So being bored today, I made what I thought was a funny and harmless comment in the kattunlove community regarding Jin's AnAn photoshoot. Obviously, I'm stupid in forgetting that nothing can be harmless and everything is serious business in that place especially regarding their beloved Akanishi.

I don't think the entry is lock so I'm just gonna link it so you guys can see the looly.

http://community.livejournal.com/kattunlove/5377526.html?view=56344054#t56344054

I especially like this comment, " lol oh he likes girls other than Japanese girls so he's got a "kink" now? Last time I checked we were all the same species."...I don't even know what this mean! Do you??

I mean while admittedly I'm not using the word "kink" in a completely correct context (but it's a funny term for me to use there so...funny > correct definition) , I still don't understand what species has to do with anything?

Then I also have a fondness for this comment b/c of the sheer stupidity of it "I'm American and i'm happy that Jin chose an American girl to pose with him. He probably feels comfortable speaking English with her..That's all" ...b/c he wouldn't be comfy speaking with his own ppl ie. the Japanese? WHUT? And also Jin's English is nothing to write home about quite yet so...uhm? I mean not to put down Jin's effort in learning English but seriously, once again, fangirls' overhyping and excess idolization of their respective "idols" just make me want to hate whoever they love. I'm small like that.

Sometimes I just hate everything.

24. He did it first

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 10:09:44 GMT

Since everyone and their mothers blogged about the passing of the King of Pop, I figured I should also since after all, this is rather monumental - the passing of an icon.

I pretty much think, like the majority of the world, that MJ was brilliant. Whether it was in singing. dancing, or song writing, he was always innovative and wickedly creative. I think one of my friends said it best, " He's pretty much a musical genius with bad extracurricular activities."

If you look at the world of pop now, whether it's US Pop, J-Pop or K-Pop, you can pretty much trace most things back to MJ. He did it first.

R.I.P Michael Jackson. You were a world star, your music will lives forever.

12. Because Edward Norton is being stupid...

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 07:39:20 GMT

My addiction...let me show you it...

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 12:52:27 GMT

So I went to sleep at 3am on Friday " Night" because my friend kept on talking to me. I got waken up at 6am by another friend to go hiking. We drove for about 5 hours to the hiking trail. We hike for another hour/ 45 mins or so. It was gorgeous (pics shall come later) but in my mind, not worth it for the long ass drive!

Then we went to a really late lunch and 3 hours later, I went dancing and late night snack. I didn't get back until about 1:45 am and instead of going to sleep, I went straight for the computer so I can watch the live streaming of the last Ssangchu ep. from WGM. Now 2 hours later, I can't still sleep because of it with my constant checking/ hoping for the new info. to be leaked out, because let's just say I want to smack the PD for the Joongbo cut of this ep.

How can they cut out the scene where Hyun Joong wears tuxedo to play the piano for Hwangbo? Especially if that piece is possibly the piece from "Stairway to Heaven" that he never managed to finish learning but promise her that he would for her?!? Does she not understand the concept of a full circle?? I mean I can somewhat understand they cutting out the BBQ part if the conspiracy theory of him giving his necklace to her in correct because it's a little bit too much for the public especially with that rumor going around...still it's doable, PD!! Watching FO now, I really do think they have shoddy crappy editing on WGM in comparison.

Anyway, to conclude this entry (which only my dear Tofu would somewhat understands), I just want to say how it's sort of unnerving how smitten I'm with the Ssangchu couple. While I can't lie and say that I believe in something more than reel for them, I can say that Ssangchu really have given me a couple of great months in entertainment. They're just unbelievably awesome with each other. I hope that one of them *coughmalecough* comes to the realization of the amazingness that was in front of him and do something about it. Alas, I fear 'tis but a vain hope on an obsessive fan such as moi T^T.And next, I will complete my Koreanfied transformation *yes, I'm ashamed! Stop rubbing it in!* by watching my first Korean drama aka. Leader's HYD. It's gonna be so off watching 4D HJ turning into emo Rui chasing after a dfferent woman :/ .

But thanx for the great moments and feelings, Ssangchu! You guys rocks!

GRRRRRRR

I HATE!

I HATE !!

INSOMNIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GAH!!!! *flail incoherently in corner*

I upgraded and now it's PICTURE MEME TIME!

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 10:10:52 GMT

Next to last my constant update for the week, so I figure I'll lure you guys in with shiny pictures, especially since yelloweito was demanding a picture meme in her update recently. See the love, aki-chan? XD

Anyway, my own Picture Meme style. Whoever wants to do this will get an alphabet letter from me, and you will need to include 5 pictures of things that start with that letter. At least 3 out of 5 pictures will need to be something you've taken yourself and not just some random picture you find in the Internet. Include a brief description. Simple enough, no? So ppl, DO EEETTTT WITH ME!! *peer pressure time >)*

I tag bibi_teko, yelloweito, pyro_baby and whoever else actually bother to read what I write.

I gave myself the letter "P". It just popped up in my head.

1. Pink~ I realize recently how much pink things I have such as:
A. Pink Wallet


B. Pink Uggs that I wear inside

C. Pink Tag Necklace that I got for free from Victoria's Secret

2. Pudding! <3 ( This is was a mango pudding that I made and demolish soon afterward during my Mango Pudding obsession Phase)

3. Poor T_T ~ Please observe the sad stage of my aforementioned pink wallet

4. Purchase ~ SHOES! To put it bluntly, I'm a shoe whore. I like them, like a lot. This new pair contributes to #3.

5. Panda ~ mainly b/c I want to be one of them and also I think they're such adorable amusing creature.

DEFEAT!... I shall Not BOW DOWN to THEE!!

Gray Space

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 06:49:11 GMT

Human emotions are funny. So fickle. So sunshine one moment and rainy the next.

I wish sometimes I just could fold unto myself. Into a space of gray. Blocking out all internal noises of my own thoughts and emotions. Avoiding that thread bare of reality that always call me back, never letting go.

The understanding of self is hard. The will to change near impossible.

Will I have a happy ending?

Of Harry Potter and Squatting

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 10:35:52 GMT

There's really no point to this post...but then again my post rarely have a point. I'm thinking it's one of the charming point of my LJ really. That and color coded words...or maybe not since me too lazy to do said color coded style.

Anyway, my brother's wedding is in 10 days. I still have no shoes. My kitchen still have no sink nor stove. We're still living refugee style with me using tiny portable stove to cook and garden hose to wash stuffs. There's also no furnitures in our downstair area so basically we've been living in the garage...minus the sleeping. We still have our beds. Or at least my parents and my brother do. I've been migrating from living room to parent's room and now to downstair's bedroom.

And yes despite all that, we 4 still collectively naively believe that everything will somehow manage to straighten itself out at the last minute. It's either the naivetivity or delusions that we're suffering under obviously.

In other news, I got to take a break from all the cleaning and go be the geek that I truly am to go watch "Harry Potter" with my friend yesternite at 12am b/c we're just awesome that way. The movie really wasn't worth it b/c God, the acting was horrible. So stilted! I mean I know the 3 main characters of the HP series are just not that good of actors and actress but I thought they sort of improve in the last movie. WHAT HAPPEN?!? also I really dislike this newer Dumbledore. He suck, he so does not do the book Dumbledore justice. Anyway, it was a fun experience to go watch something the moment it opens but the movie was bleh!...except the wand dueling scene was kinda cool.It makes me wish I have magic then I can use my awesome power to clean!!! and I will be able to sleep in my room again as well as stopping the whole squatting thing I've been doing lately due to lack of furnitures. I mean I know I'm Asian and all and we pretty much invented the whole squattting thing but this is just getting ridiculous!

7-7-07

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Sat, 07 Jul 2007 10:14:47 GMT

It's 7-7-07. I feel like I should posted something special and meaningful and life shattering to commemorate this day or something. Except it's me and well, I don't do so good in those departments. Furthermore, it's 3am, I have to wake up in about 6 hours to see my brother get hitched and only one side of my nose is functionning. Damn allergy. So I'm even less bright than usual. Thus I shall leave you all with these three gems that was embarked to me by those much wiser than me:

1. When in doubt, just pee into the wind.

2. When the river is on fire, take the muddy path.

3. Was it "Big Bird"?

Obviously, I need to get more intellegent ppl in my life.

why why why???

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Tue, 03 Jul 2007 08:50:45 GMT

My house looks like a refugee camp after it got smashed by a hurricane. I spent 3 hours yesterday cooking what's hoping to be a week worth of food on a tiny camping portable stove. Then I spent another hour today getting drenched in cold water washing dishes under a faucet in the garden. Because as of right now, my family does not possess a sink nor a stove....damn house renovations!! We also not longer have a dining table thus we've been doing most eatings in very Asian style ie. squatting.

And oh...did I mentioned how my brother is getting married in about 19 days? And to add further insult to injury, he's also moving into his new house and discovering he's a worse pack rat than I am. Seriously. how much stuffs can a guy have?!?!? So for the last week or so since I returned home from college, I've been basically pulling graveyard shift until 4am each day cleaning. Then go to sleep until about 2 pm, just to wake up to repeat everything again. I also had to go back and forth to SF/ SJ/ Milpitas for the last 2 days for various things. Driving in hot sun with traffic is a not very shiny combo. in my book. *sigh*

FOR THE LOSS!!!

To Brainy~~

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Sun, 24 Jun 2007 11:38:31 GMT

Before I begin this, I just want to say POLEEN is the AWESOME. And I heart her a lot if not for anything that the fact that she thinks of me when she's bored and/or there is nothing on youtube...or her connection sux and thus prevent said watching of youtube. Still I know it's love and since I'm a deprived/clingy child, I'll take any kind of love i can get XD.

The Real You

Here is the analysis:

1. You've got great self-confidence and you're full of charm. Most guys who get to know you will be attracted to you. You are far from sweet and proper; your intriguing personality fascinates them. Most guys find it easy to fall for a girl like you.

All the imaginary guys in my head also agree that I'm the most charming girl!

2. You don't really care about other people's feelings. You do things the way you want and usually think only about yourself. You are easy-going and love to have fun, but you can be irresponsible as well. You are not keen on serious discussions because they can make you remember that life isn't always about parties.

The quiz is right. Life isn't always about parties. It's about who will get the last cookie.

3. You are a bright, cheerful and bubbly person. You are thoughtful and considerate, and like to have fun. Everybody feels comfortable around you because of your pleasant nature. When you walk into a room, people's eyes are likely to be drawn to you because of your charm.

It's either my charm that's drawing ppl's eyes or my boobs. But I rather believe it's my charm. 8D

4. Your peers think of you as a fun person, but sometimes you can be a little irresponsible. You can be somewhat childish, and can try to ignore the fact that you will one day need to really grow up and be a mature adult! Perhaps you could start reading good books; they might help you look at the world in a different light. You do want to be taken seriously, right?

Growing up is for fools! And you mean my porn does not consider good reading materials?!? What blasphemy is this!!??

5. Your boyfriend believes that you are a strong and independent person. Your confidence and cheerfulness make you an attractive person to be around, but sometimes you need to pay more attention to what other people, including your boyfriend, are thinking.

I always pay attention to what other ppl *bird flew by*....wait, who are you again?

Know Thyself...or more precisely Rossi Self

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 09:57:02 GMT

What I do when I can't sleep...bug BB and take Online Quiz! Yay me.

Get to know yourself better

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

Lies! Lies! I tell you, lies! Ppl like me b/c I'm shiny and occasionally give them food.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Unless I have to give up food. Then screw true love!

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

Wow...so I'm sort of stupid when it comes to relationship aren't I? I know one of these days, my weakenss for food and or/ shiny things will be my downfall:
Guy: You want a cookie?
Me:....I love you. Have my baby!!!
Guy:...maybe later?
Me: k. give me the cookie.

The seriousness of your love:

Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

This is so true. I mean all the guys in my head are clamoring for my attentions as we speak!!!

Your views on education

Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.

Is this why I'm not studying but instead doing LJ update? o_0

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

This is very true. I need Food. Food need Money. Therefore, I need Money.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

Oh shoot, they forgot about my World Domination Plan too! I so am planning to rule the World and have my own harem of pretty boys in the near future.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

This is very true. I am so not a clingy person....oh wait, who am I kidding?!? Mommy!

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

But as my best friend will attest, I have no HEART!!!

*** So what do you guys think? How accurate is this knowing my fantastic self as much as you guys do? :D

the paranoia that is my mind...

rossi_huynh@hotmail.com — Sat, 16 Jun 2007 11:02:30 GMT

It is now approximately 4am on this side of the world. I just finished taking a shower while listening to a song being played on the radio about how the rhythm will get you. And part of me has this unnatural fear that yes, the rhythm will get me.

I also have 11 pieces of cereal arrange into a pyramid in front me, left over from my attempt to find something to chew earlier in the nite...when i was still relatively sane. Obviously any vestiges of that has long been gone by now.
