Okayokayokayokayokay

Let's rant about something
something
Martha Stewart.
(free speech y'all)

She makes everything overly complicated.
She expects everybody to have unlimited supplies of every sort, and all the time in the world.
I've seen recipes that take 9 hours, and none of them include chilling or freezing.

For example:
My mom bought some chestnuts and looked up how to roast chestnuts by Martha Stewart.
May I ask who the hell has a chestnut roasting pan?
I'd never even heard of a chestnut roasting pan.
And without it, it didn't work very well. we had to scoop the chestnuts out of the shell with a mini fork.
She makes everything soooo complicated.
Why?!
Let's go find one that's overly complicated.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay I'm too lazy to go and specifically find one.

But I've looked at her recipes countless times to find some fancy ˙߃å¬˚ç or some ø∑˜Ω¬¬¬¬¬˜çˆthat nobody's ever heard of.

Again, I'm too lazy to write very much today, so happy saturday to y'all, and I don't like Martha Stewart. Yey!

HAAAAPPY THANKSGIVING

TODAY IS THANKSGIVING!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
EVEN THOUGH I'M CHINESE
AND MY PARENT ARE IMMIGRANTS
YAY!

Should immigrants celebrate thanksgiving?
I don't know.
This is an American holiday.
You don't exactly see people in Guatemala celebrating the fourth of July.
But for some reason, my cousin in China still gets thanksgiving break.
He lives in China for heavens sake!
Did CHINA have a happy dinner with the Natives?

I still don't know.
Do you have an opinion on this?
I mean, my family doesn't invite all of our family over and have a giant traditional Thanksgiving feast or anything.
Mostly because all my relatives live in China.
Or Texas.
So we gather up all the rest of our immigrant friends and have a mini party thing.
Yay!


okay this is short, but have a happy thanksgiving people!
Don't fall into a food coma!

Hhhhh

I need to complain about something.
I'm feeling frustrated about an upcoming test, and I rant the best when I'm irritated.
So...
Any cruddy movies lately?
Guardians of the Galaxy(I think) had a pretty weak storyline.
Oh yeah, I watched a couple movies on the bus to Yosemite.
On the way there, we watched the movie Miracle and (of fucking course)Frozen.
I am so sick and tired of that movie.
That's a pretty good topic, let's talk about that.

Frozen
Hey, it's a pretty good movie, Disney can animate like Pixar cuz they bought it!
It's not about a prince saving a princess from some shit!
They don't get married in 2 days!
Wow!
Amazing!
Great soundtrack too!

But bad things happen when you give people too much of something good.
Always in moderation.
The same thing happened with Despicable me.
All of the parents were just like:, "Oh hey, look, it's a PG movie and all the kids seem to love it! Let's show it to them again! And again! and AGAIN!"
I probably watched it around 5-6 times already. 
SICK of it!
But guess what the fans do!
They suck it up and spew it back out with 80x that magnitude.
Do you know how many times I have listened to the song 'Let it Go'?
´®≈†ƒç©√˙∫∆˜˚µ¬≤ˆ¬
NO.
No.
NOO.
NO.
NO.

Before I even watched the movie, my friends watched it, and they relayed basically all of the movie lyrics to me. They basically force fed me music.
I had pretty much memorized all of the songs in the movie except for the ice and the one that everybody forgets, but whatever.

Then, I come out of the movie theater to people singing it at every corner!
I can't escape it!
They're playing For the First time in Forever on the speakers at school.
They are playing the Demi Lovato version of Let it go on the radio.
There are millions of covers of every single song on Youtube.
KIDS HAVE ICE SKATING ROUTINES FIT TO THE SONG OF 'IN SUMMER'.
And the most frustrating thing is...
EVERYBODY SINGS ALONG
EVERYBODY KNOWS THE LYRICS
WHY???


Always in moderation kids.

All the singing in that bus on the way there gave me a headache. Never make me watch that thing again. 
EVER.

Big Hero 6

Heeeeyy so last night, I watched Big Hero 6!
Alone!
and nobody else was in the theater!
Yey!
Well okay that's not entirely true.
When I first got there, there were no people.
but after about ten minutes, a couple groups arrived.
In total, there were no more than 15 people.
There was one group that sat behind me - agh!
It was a mother and a daughter - the mother so so large that she couldn't sit directly next to her child, she had to sit several seats away so she wouldn't crush her. She talked on the phone through part of the movie, and talked loudly at that!
Her daughter wasn't any better.
She was maybe... a 6-8 year old child, and she was soooo annoying!
Every time there was anything remotely sad, funny, or cute, she would express it extremely loudly and obnoxiously.
UGH ARE YOU KIDDING ME.
AND HER MOM ENCOURAGED IT.
so that partially ruined the experience.
But eventually, I think I shot her enough dirty looks for her to shut up and get the message.

Review time! Yay!
Spoiler Alert!

It was honestly an adorable movie.
It was straightforward, including superhero-like things, humor, robots, etc etc.
There really isn't that much to say.
But why didn't Hiro give himself any special super suit power?
Why didn't he make himself fly or something?
What was the point of Mochi?
But honestly, the robotics, the animation, it was all really awesome.
Except that Hiro doesn't really look asian.
Just saying.
and btw is the play on words 'Hiro/Hero' intentional?
If you know please tell me :)

Continuing---
But the storyline.. well, it was pretty cliche.
I think they basically took Guardians of the Galaxy and make it more kiddy(animated, straightforward, no swearing).

They both have a main character who has dead/gone parents.
The main character finds a team.
One of the members of the team is un-humanoid and doesn't have human-ish ways.
The team beats the bad guy together.
That member dies.
It turns out that that member doesn't die, and there's some way to bring it back.

Wow! Doesn't that sound familiar?

But either way, Big Hero 6 was a really cute movie- go watch it if you haven't, and have a great Thanksgiving break!

School Lunches

What do you think about school lunches?
Or at least your school's lunches?
Are they the typical, nasty, gloppy food pictured in movies and books?
Or are they serving gourmet food served in restaurants?

Our school food isn't exactly 'mystery meat' mush,
but it's most definitely not gourmet.

It was already pretty bad last year,
but this year, everything is whole wheat(thanks Michelle Obama).

Whole wheat? Seriously?
I get the fact that it's trying to help cure child obesity and shit,
but come one, what percent of the child population is like that?
Why do the rest of us have to suffer with disgusting loaves of bread?
Thank GOD they didn't make the pasta whole grain.
Gluten free is bad enough. -.-

Let's talk about the hamburgers.
Sorry, let me edit that statement.
"hamburgers".
Two giant buns of overly sweet whole wheat bread with an itty bitty bland piece of meat suffocating between them.
They might as well call it bread with a small side of meat.
What the hell.

At least our school provides free fruit.
Oh right.
"fruit".
About half the time, it's cool, it's great, it's normal fruit.
But the other half of the time, it's rotten, it's mutated, it's covered in pesticides.
You can TASTE the bitterness of the pesticides on the apple skin.
Once, I got this terrible apple that looked like it had been covered in wax, but then the wax started peeling off.
Ugh.
I've had some pretty bad experiences with this shit.

And the pizza is whole grain.
Where the hell did they even find a place that sold whole grain pizza?
And the slices are about the size of my hand.
And I've got a pretty average hand size.
Really?
Us normal people need nutrition to get through this grueling day that's required by law.

Plus, it's super overpriced.
It's six dollar for a tiny paper bowl of pasta, a piece of fruit, and a slice of whole wheat bread.

Unfortunately, there is an ever-growing population of lazy people(i.e. me) who don't bring their own lunches, so the lunch service at our school still has an abundance of customers.

Plus, my school doesn't even have a cafeteria. It has a dusty old plain with green tables and umbrellas. At least make it grass so we don't get dirt in our food every time somebody walks by.
Geez.

Go on and complain about your school lunches in the comments if you want to.
Because ours sucks!

AGH

I love my mom.
Don't get me wrong.
But sometimes, she's just so frustrating!
It's not like the mom that talks about "girl stuff" or pries too much into my life.
Or the mom that tells embarrassing stories about me to my friends or something.

She's just... well...
Agh.

I can't tell her anything without her using it against me.
It's like talking to the police "Anything you say can and will be used against you."
I can't talk about feelings, thoughts, future, past, anything.
I tried several times.
I'm usually an introverted person and keep my feelings to myself and talk about other random stuff.
I don't tell people anything, really.
But I tried opening up to her, and told her about how I thought that I was a selfish and greedy person.
It failed miserably.
She told me that she didn't think that I was selfish.
She didn't let me finish my sentences.
Whenever I try to speak, she cuts me off.
And she hates it whenever I do it to her.
Hypocrite.
Within the next 6 hours, she used it against me(New record!).
I groaned about how long it was taking for the food to arrive at a restaurant.
We had already waiting an hour to get in the restaurant, and another 30 to order.
We had only gotten an appetizer and 2 bowls of rice.
She immediately told me that she now thought I was selfish.
Thanks Mom.
Never telling you anything again.

She also doesn't support me in what I want to do with my life.
I can tell that she tries to show her support,
but I know that she really doesn't.
At least she tries.
She used to openly state how drawing should only be a hobby, and nothing more.
She still doesn't comment about my art when I ask her to, other than a short grunt.
But now, I think her patience is wearing thin again.
I doodle.
A lot.
On paper, on the sides of my homework, on my planner.
She hates it.
I don't understand why, but she despises it, and yells at me for it.
And she keeps suggesting to teach me more coding, or sending me to a coding camp.
I'm sick of it.
I can do what I want with my future.
I can do what I want with my life.
I can choose what FUCKING PATH I WANT TO GO.
I'm sorry about that, I just needed to get it out.
Punching stuff worked for a while, but it's gotten old.

She also hates it when I do homework on the couch.
I don't know how it affects her, but she screams at me for working anywhere but right next to her in the dining room.

She rarely compliments me on anything.
She's so difficult to please.
Or make happy in general.
She only laughs at her own jokes.
She always cuts me off.
She always blames me for something.
She yells at me and my dad for the smallest things(i.e. cutting carrots, being late 5 minutes, not doing this or that the second after she tells us to). And when she forgets to do something, we can't do anything about it. Because she makes us food.
I make her something, and she gives me a strained smile and walks away.
I try to hug her and she avoids it.
I try to make small talk but she tells me to bug off.
I try to compliment her and she tells me to go do something else.
I try to be nice, and she rejects me.
And the second I start being grumpy(usually on vacation with friends), she starts lecturing me about how my mood is rubbing off on everybody else.
Isn't your mean, annoying lecturing rubbing off on everybody else?
Oh, what happened to your mood EVERYDAY OF MY LIFE?!
Sorry again.

My IQ is going DOWN as I grow up?!
OH, and I'm stupid, and I'll never get anywhere in life?!
I'm going to end up as a FRIGGEN HOBO on the corner of MCDONALD'S?!
THANKS A HELL OF A LOT MOM.
I LOVE YOU TOO.

And again, don't take me wrong, I love my mom, but some of the time, she irritates the crap out of me.
Yey.

I just saw a trailer... or two... or three.

Soo, I just saw a trailer for 3 different movies.
Let's start from order of watching.

Big Hero 6
Weee big max looks so cute!
He's just like this fat marshmallow.
I mean, not like the Ghostbusters marshmallow man, but
He's so cute!
And he just waddles across the screen.
Like a penguin.
And even though Hiro(haha hero) Hamada is supposed to be Asian, he doesn't look like it at all.
Dammit Disney first you over racialize it with Mulan and now you under racialize it with him?
Come on.
But I don't really have much to say about this cuz the main thing was how cute little marshmallow fluff is. 

Age of Ultron
I am so unbelievably excited for this movie.
But when I watched the trailer, well... it looked so sad!
And just generally gloomy and dark.
The Guardians of the Galaxy was so happy looking! (oh yeah I saw a kid dressed up as Starlord for Halloween!)
But anyways.
What's up with the mood change?
What was up with that random clip of ballerina's in the middle?
Is Ultron Tony Stark's creation?
WHY IS CAPTAIN AMERICA'S SHIELD BROKEN. IS THAT REALLY NECESSARY.
I didn't even like Captain America in Avengers, but come on, that was his symbol.
Is he dead?
It looks like everybody is going to die.
That sucks.
I guess they might be making up for the fact that nobody dies in Cap. 'Murica 2.
Whoops spoilers.
But if you haven't watched that by now, you're really late.
But Loki's going to be in this movie, so that makes everything better.

Minions
First of all,
No
Second of all,
No.
This is such an obvious obvious attempt at marketing, it's ridiculous.
It's worse than Olaf.
They were cute at first, but now they're just so irritating it's unbelievable.
They used to be like little bears that you wanted to squish.
Now they're bears that you want to punch.
Honestly.
They're in New York? Really?
And how long do those minions live, anyways?
I'm not looking forward to this.

Rating from most excited to least excited:
Age of Ultron
Big Hero 6

















































Minions


Have a good day y'all, and go check out the trailers :)

HELP

I WANT TO TALK TO SOMEBODY BUt NOBODY WILL TALK TO ME.
I'M BORED AS HELL.
SOMEBODY TALK TO ME.

I have no idea what to talk about, but I still want to talk.
But if I talk to somebody, I will fail miserably and slink away.
First world problems.

But I still need to blow off steam.
So I'll do that thingy.
Whatever you wanna call it.
I forgot what I called it and now I'm too lazy to go back and check.
ERgh.

Hm...
Almond
Nuts
Allergies
(well isn't this starting out well)
Spring
Winter
Cold
Yosemite
Birds
Parakeet
Green
Blue
Pink
Flowers
Sakura
Japan
China
World
Wii
Super Smash Bros Brawl
Zelda
Peach
Fruit
Hungry
Food
Amazing
Adjective
A's
Triple A
Ads
Annoying
Radio
Youtube

Okay, honestly I don't think I have enough steam to continue this, but Youtube is a pretty fabulous topic to end off on.
I'm starting to get a little tired and I don't really know why.
My mood fluctuates a lot.
If you have read my other posts, you might have figured that out by now.
Cheers.
I'm still bored.
Bye.

Friday, November 14, 2014

HALLOOO

Sorry for the recent inactiveness, I've been in
YOSEMITEEEE.

There's honestly so much to talk about.
I think I've blown off most of my steam to my parents, but I'll express what I have left.
Ha.
I'm still pretty jittery.

First off, I have to express about how grateful I am to be back home.
My bed is floofy and trustworthy.
It smells normal.
There is a bathroom in the house(how awesome is that?!).
I don't have to wake up at 6:30.
I don't have paper thin walls.
I CAN KEEP FOOD INSIDE THE HOUSE.
So happy.

But Yosemite really is an amazing place.
There's great views, great scenery, great landscape.... and that's about it.
The food was decent. That's something.
The water was really cold, and I generally hate hiking/anything physical, but it's much more fun with friends. Everything is.
Honestly though, after this trip, I do think I have a better outlook on nature.
But screw that cheesy shit, this is a rant-ish, leaning towards the pessimistic-y side blog, so let's get started on that.

First impression-
The cabin smelled weird.
Nobody else's did, causing me to worry that there was a mouse rotting in our heater or something.
It's hard to explain.
It scared me.


THE WALLS ARE PAPER THIN.
LITERALLY.
We had tent cabins, so anything you say can be heard by people on opposite sides of you.
So no cheesy sleepover games for us.
But it's not only that, but we can't talk at ALL.
There are some really picky sleepers( regular=10 hours!?), causing some really irrational breakdowns in a tent cabin near us.
Plus, we have a curfew of 10, with a wake up time of 6:30, maxing out on 8.5 hours.
That's a good night sleep for me.
Those kids are going to be murdered in high school.

We also had these things called bear boxes, where we had to store anything that had a smell, because animals(raccoons and bears) would come and try to eat them.
Food, Toiletries, etc.
My toothpaste turned into gel by the end of the week.
But I get the reason.
One of friends forgot to close their bear-box door, and a raccoon got in and ate their apple.

It's freezing cold in the morning and night, so you don't really know what to wear for the day.
You don't want to wear to much, so you have to change in the middle of the day, but you don't want to wear to little and catch hypothermia.
My gloves got wet, so my hands turned red from the blood trying to make up for the temperature change.
They looked almost swollen and sunburned.
Ugh.
It was so cold they nicknamed it "Little Siberia".
And since it's California, it's in drought, so there were few rivers and waterfalls.
Never complaining about the cold again.

My field group leader was what you call... a little... well..
eccentric.
Let's call him Joe for the sake of anonymity.
Of course, he was nice, he was cool, he knew a million different ways to make whistles out of random things, but he just talked a lot.
A LOT.
On the first day of hiking ,we stopped so many times for him to lecture us about something around that we only hikes 1.25 miles in seven hours. We were late by 37 minutes. We had to take a shuttle back because we were so late.
While it was raining, we stood at a tree for half an hour talking about lichen.
I learned what I wanted and more than I wanted to know about lichen.
Lichen is pronounced like-en in America, and leech-en in Europe.
Lichen has a mutual agreement with fungi.
Lichen is made of two parts - fungi and algae.
etc.
Also, for a night activity, we returned back to camp so late that we weren't allowed to brush our teeth.
It was past 10, and we had to go directly to our cabins and sleep- lights out.
Guess who was hosting that activity.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's right. Joe.
Joe talked about bears for over an hour.
Bears.
BeaRs.
BeArs.
BEARS.
BEARS.
BEARS.
BEARS.

I never want to hear about bears again. 
Don't take me wrong, Joe is awesome, but just a little tiresome.

Yosemite is amazing, and I would rant more, but I'm kinda sleepy because of the long bus ride and the previous bedtime of 10.
Have you ever gotten really tired after a long car or plane ride and you don't know why?
What would you call that?
Bus lagged?
Yosemite lagged?
I'll call my special situation "Yosemibus-lagged".

Btw-If you know the reason people get sleepy after long bus rides, please tell me.
Is it because of the long periods of inactiveness?
Anyways, G'night, sleep tight, don't let the raccoons bite!

Cringe

Have you ever thought about something you'd done in the past and cringed? Hard?
How could you have been so stupid? How could you have done something so ridiculous?
I want to punch myself, or knock my head into a wall. Again. And again. And again.
I think of those moments everyday, and I want to kick myself.

Today I had one of those moments(sort of).

I'm an antisocial person, and when somebody tells me a joke, it takes a moment for me to respond.
I understand jokes like a second language. I have to listen to it, translate it, then react to it.
So a lot of the time, I don't understand that it's a joke, so I reply automatically with what I would've replied if it wasn't a joke.

Yesterday, I got a haircut. An acquaintance of mine walked up to me this morning and asked: "Did you get the tips of your hair dyed invisible?"

I automatically replied, "No."

She tried to rescue the joke by continuing: "That means you cut your hair, right?"

When the only reaction she got from me was a blank stare, she awkwardly walked away.

It took me several seconds after that to comprehend the joke. I wanted to scream at myself.
I do that with a lot of my conversations in general. I feel like ripping my face off.

Also, have you ever looked at yourself in previous years and thought about how insufferable you were? Every year of my life, I think: "Oh, I'm a perfectly normal person. There's no way that in the future, I'll look back on myself and cringe."  I cringe.

There was this point a couple years ago I was into pretending I was a mouse living in the wilderness with sharpened sticks.

A year before that, I didn't listen to music.

A year before that, I thought I was being bullies because people were teasing me about some minor things.

A year before that, I was a selfish brat.

And so on.

I wonder what I'll think of myself now in a year.
*cringes*

Omigosh omigosh omigosh

This is more of just a scream of joy than an actual post.

LOKI IS GOING TO BE IN AGE OF ULTRON YAY!
I'M SO EXCITED.
OMG

Loki is love.
Loki is life.

Tom Hiddleston is a fucking god.
And so is Benedict Cumberbatch.

And Google doesn't like either of their last names.

Sherlock and Avengers, my two all time favorites.
BTW, I'm not for or against Johnlock, but I think it's kinda weird.
And I haven't heard about any prominent Marvel shippings.
Shipping is weird.
You kinda just stick your two favorite characters together.
Tbh - I've never really supported shipping.
Except once where I had the sudden urge to ship Zutara.

But that's besides the point.

I was so disappointed when I found out Loki wasn't going to be in Age of Ultron, but now that it's confirmed, I can't wait to watch it!
I also really want to watch Big Hero 6.
It looks sooo cute!

We JuMped ouT A wiNdOw.
It looks so adorable!
I can't wait haha
But I don't really know what other good movies are going to be coming out soon, so if you know any, please comment below!
Thank you!

The "Amazing" Spiderman 2

Oooo this should be fun.
I genuinely hated this movie.
Sorry for all you spiderman fanboys and fangirls out there, but this was a terrible movie.
Watching it on a plane through cruddy headphones and a tiny screen a couple yards away from me may have contributed to the hatred.
This is not to be confused that I don't like Marvel. Marvel is fabulous. This movie sucks. Just like the Green Lantern(DC) movie.

Let us begin.
*dramatic music*
Spoiler Alert:

Okay, so it just happens that everybody involved meets up?
Come on.
There were too many villains in this movie, it didn't make any sense.
What kind of company hires people who don't follow code and let him go in there with the electricity still on?
How did he absorb all of that electricity without dying? What made him so special?
Electro had no character development. What was the transition between Spiderman's fanboy to mortal enemy? It didn't really elaborate on that.
It also didn't elaborate on all of his abilities.
Harry was dying, right? But his dad died at like, age 50, so why was Harry freaking out so much? What was all the sudden rush?
And if the mechanical suit thingy saved him after he injected the spider venom and was dying, why didn't he wear the suit in the first place?
Why was Harry still so mad at Spiderman after it was proved that Spiderman was right all along? What was he mad about? That he was wrong? What a sore loser.
How the hell did Spiderman recover so fast from all of those electric blasts? Humans don't recover that fast. Spiders don't recover that fast. How does that work?
How did Harry even discover that Peter Parker was Spiderman? I never really understood that bit.
Why was the defeat of Harry so rushed? He just strangled him with string and that was that.
The death of Gwen wasn't even that sad. It was so short and boring. Kind of pitiful.
Why did his dad put special secret tokens in a calculator of all things?
Why didn't the the 14 year old genius go to college?

Who and what was the point of that final villain? Please to god tell me they're not making another one of those things.

Overall, the plot, character development, and everything in general was terrible.
Have a good day!

Sparkly eyes?

Have you ever read a book that mention a line like this?
"Her eyes glittered with malice."
or this?
"There was an evil glint in his eyes."
or even this?
"Her eyes gleamed with happiness."

I don't get it.
I've read a lot of books, and this has always stumped me.
Do literature people have the magical power to read the light reflecting off people's retinas?
I most certainly can't tell if somebody is happy or not by looking at the gleam in their eyes.

From what I know, normal people read other people's expressions from little strips of hair above their eyes - eyebrows.

I can't tell if somebody's sad because they tilted their head away from the light.
That doesn't make any sense.

Somebody told me recently that if you carve the pumpkin by cutting out a circle from the bottom instead around the stem, then the pumpkin will stay fresh longer because the stem is its life source.

What the heck?

That's like saying if I chop off a leg from a human corpse rather than a head, then it will rot slower.

I kind of want to try that out.
With the pumpkins, of course, not the corpses.

Also in literature, people tend to snort a lot. Have you noticed that? Somebody makes a ridiculous comment, and somebody snorts. I can't snort. Can you?

But back to the original point- I guess that's why the world isn't run the way books are written.
Otherwise, everybody would be snorting and have anime eyes.

Sooo

Yeah okay I have no idea what this post is going to be about, but I want to write something, so I guess this is a rant.
Oooh actually I'm going to make this a chain word thing.
I say one random word, and after I say that word, I immediately write down the first thing I think of relating to that word.
I keep going until I'm satisfied with the final word.
I basically do this when I want to vent.
It's a pretty helpful method.
Let's see...
