No. 21

Man, relatives coming definitely stops all modes of communication with the outside world. I usually blog around 7 at nite, but well, my cousin, Dawn came. She's the best, she's exactly 16 months older and we get along like sisters. We're only children, so we're definitely tighter and considering that all our other cousins are around 30ish.

My cousin, Clumsy, it's a nick name because whenever he serves people at dinner, he always manages to drop something before it gets to the plate. Well, his wife and him had twins, one girl and one boy. The boy is really small, around 3 pounds and in those plastic shell things to keep it alive, the girl is around 5 pounds. I think the mother, her name is Susan weighs less than 100 pounds, while Clumsy is a good 200 plus. Yea, it's funny and they both have french names and we're Chinese, so it's incredible hard to say the names so no one has tried to say it even the grandmother for fear of butchering the names. It's odd to because the girl will probably be the best of them all, but they'll always like the boy because Chinese families like boys better, so that just sucks ass.

I went shopping a lot. It was fun with Dawn because we enjoy the same things are the total opposites, so when we share things, it's totally great because we both like different things as in food. Just the other night, we went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner, when we ordered cheesecake, I liked the bottom and she liked the top. It was totally perfect. I look at her and she is total perfect appearance wise and she seems well balanced, so I never got the fact why no one goes out with her. She's never had anyone attracted to her and she's 19 I think. It's odd, I mean she's totally social with me, but I think when she's alone she is really quiet and I guess not approachable you may say?

Ok, back to shopping, after much wanting, ranting, raving, wontoning, I was at Abercrombie with her and there were these "Vintage Ski Jackets" and I felt so compelled by the mellow yellow, I had to get myself to wear it then like it for a good 30 minutes. Normally, I stick to neutral colors or just anything besides yellow, red, orange, and black. Yea, I'll very limited on colors. I bought the jacket though and totally love it. Now me and my cousin have matching jackets. Usually we don't match, but when we were little, we really enjoyed it. I also got a book called "Four Blondes", it looks really good even though people say it's not as great as "Sex In the City." I like books that are all girly and totally in to sex, shopping, and all above girl stuff. I hate that murder and scary crap, why do I need to raise my blood pressure over a book?

I rented movies too, I rented "Wedding Planner," "Heartbreaker," "CenterStage," and "Rush Hour 2." I hear they are all kinda mediocre, but I mean all movies are like that now. I got them on DVD so I'll watch them in French. I really enjoy French when it isn't forced upon me. I actually understand it now since i'm in French 4.

It brings me to the MOST EXCITING NEWS OF MY LIFE THAT IS DEDICATED TO PLANNING MY LIFE: I got accepted to WSU and EWU. I'm not going to go to those colleges, they're my backup, but I'm honored they would choose me. It's quite odd though, my uncle congratulated me and asked me to go to Thailand in the summer, while my father did not congratulate me on WSU and say way to go for EWU. What the FUCK IS THAT ALL ABOUT? He's so bitter about playing the fee for them to read the application, then asks me why I didn't apply to this one or that one, then he's concerned that I won't get into the UW, even though I'm 33 out of 301 and I take AP and have activities too, I'm well rounded student, but that is not good enough. I'm not even gonna rant anymore because I realized it's an endless fight that will just lead to an unjoyus time and high blood pressure when i'm 17. I'm happy and I got scholarships to WSU, but apparently, NO THAT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH. I realize I'll never be good enough, I'm not sure if I accept it, but I'm learning too.

I'm tired of writing and will update about Dawnie in my next Blog.
