i think blogging at the most inappropriate times of the day are the funnest times to blog. my reason for writing tonight is that i ate ramen a little less than two hours ago and i can't fall asleep on a full stomach. i am crazy awake right now, it's ridiculous. no more than ten minutes ago, andrew kim just farted in his sleep. funny. i don't think i've ever heard him fart in my life.



these days, whenever people ask me how i'm doing, i find myself having a hard time answering that question. as much as i hate telling them the typical "not too bad" or "i've been pretty busy," i still tell them that. how do you answer such a question? i really hate mindless chit-chat. i think Uma Thurman said it best in Pulp Fiction, "why do we feel it's necessary to yak about bull**** in order to be comfortable?" that's one of the reasons why i hate bumping into people on campus, especially those i haven't seen in a long time. we both hate the game, but social rules tell us that we must play. man, i sound terribly antisocial and hostile right now. this wasn't the direction i was intending to write in...

so, how ARE you doing?

i got my mp3 player last friday. it looks pretty different from the picture i posted up. i definitely do not adore it as much as i did before i possessed it though. it's always like that. our imagination always exceeds reality. i'm still glad i got it though.

i started my education fieldwork on wednesday. i observe 7th graders and help them with their homework for three hours every wednesday. i mainly work with Hispanic kids who live in Tustin. i tried to remember what it was like for me to be a 7th grader. oh man that's blurry. all i remember was hating Mrs. Breon for being so hard and being really depressed for no reason. sorry kids, no help from this volunteer.

i also finished watching Full House that night. the previous night, i had watched three episodes. the next night, eugene and i just decided to finish it with a sweep. four episodes in a row. crappy ending but a pretty fun one to watch. "gom seh marheegah, han jeebeh eesuh..." i love that song.


wednesday, 4:56am. phone goes off. "Jordan's Mom." ringer silenced. go back to sleep.

thursday, 11:06am. voicemail. "Jordan's Mom." call her back any time after 3:30.

thursday, 3:31pm. i get my old job back.
