random office quote

"close your eyes. picture a convict. whats he wearing? nothin special. baseball cap on backward, baggy pants, he says something ordinary like, yo thats shizzle. ok now slowly open your eyes again. who're you picturing? a black man? wrong. no, it was a white woman... surprised? well shame on you"

awww saw my hs friend tonight for happyhour / real dinner hahaha
i miss old times.
its always so weird to find out wher epeopel are. i guess we all dont do a very good job of staying in contact... but we do touch base every few montsh of so, i guess thast good. =)

Lab is weirdly stressful. Theres always so much to think about. Sometimes the peopel in it make it kinda lame. Except for kelly hahaha. wouldn't have survived without her and probably will die when she leaves in august -____-
i feel like my PI is a big baby and gets jealous and its always kinda awkward when tis jsut him and me. Also I think he thinks i'm hella smart, but i'm not. and i dont want to upset him just yet. lol

thinking maybe i should take pics everyday again ... at least with my phone. hahaha but then again i'm lazy. but its amusing to look back on !

ugh i miss my old house =( ... even if it IS only for 2 months i'm away from it.
i feel so dirty there. and my room is so dark. also i'm irritated no one is ever home to sign for my package.

i'm coordinating all these dumb "outreach events" for kids that pay like thousands of dollars to spend liek a week at uc berkeley. one day they come to us and we talk to them about our differnet professions. Its discouraging to see that they are so close minded about what profession they watn to go in. I' m pretty sure they are all "health care oriented" but in the end they all just want to be DOCTORS. LAME. I got asked this question today ... "i know its a stereotype... but is there any truth to the saying that dental school is for peopel who c an't get into med school." poop on your face. 7% acceptance rate, betch!

anyways, that shit takes way too much planning and they aren't even disadvantaged or anything. whatever. and then i was late to lab and i forgot to tell my pi about it the day before so i sent an email at like 9 somethign saying i would be about an hour late... and then i get this response thats like ... thats fine tim, but in the future give me more notice. WTF like it eve N MATTERS if i'm there. its so dumb. today i got there and did nothing except sit on my chair. and then i am like restricted from talking to the other person in my lab bec my pi gets "jealous" lol. he went int othe room and then the girl said something funny to me and i laughed.. .then he yells liek DONT TALK BEHIND MY BACK. please grow up, you are 40. and he tells the same stories. its like putting up with old man.

i swam the other day and now my groins hurt and i smell like pool. it is very confusing.

annnnnnnnnnd i'm in a dumb comptuer lab rigth now bec i ahve no internet and home ... which makes me realize how dependent i am on internet ... kinda sad hahahaha

goign to canada (toronto) at the end of july!
goign to la this weekend!

Summer has come - research started , 9-5 is not fun.
My birthday just passed - thanks for everyone for making it so special. usually i'm not used to having anything special on my birthday but i feel like i had 3 days of special treatment =)
Thanks to - - - sam, jupoo, yj, lan-anh, alan for coming to surprise me at midnight and the awesome milk carton picture collage. it makes me smile everytime i see it.
annnd - erin, my, betty, amy for a fun night on friday.

Anyways, i'm tired of hatin' i'm tired of bitchin' and mopin' - imma make life good. I think i jsut need something to be excited about.

so... it turns out i dont have to start research till next monday = this whole week si free... then vegas on friday = best week of my life. hahaha
i think i've slept more this week than i have in 6+ months. time to catch up!!!

its a very strange feeling to have nothing to do. . .

Finally done with 1st year... which i can say was the hardest year of my life. By the end of spring quarter i was barely holding on. i need this summer to recuperate! I dont know how i got through in the end... itw as just rediculous. And the weird thing is a lotof the time it wasn't necessarily the studying part, it was just all the lab stuff, worrying about random school things, and then like extra curriculars that took up so much of my time.
I'm hoping 2nd year is at least a little more bearable. altho i have more responsiblities in my organizations, so that is scary and time consuming.
At home for the weekend. boring as usual. I brought home 4+ loads of laundry LOL bec i never had time!! and I never had enough quarters.

Better get some work done.

research starts next week ish... then vegas on friday =) woot woot!

I want a real vacation!!!

I have all these random pictures for when I was trying to do that 365 thing, but then i got too busy. =(
But i'll still try and do it. its fun looking at random pictures

yesterday was high school outreach conference!!! for which I've been planning since january! It was a success and of course the school that I outreached to brought the most kids ;)
I am so proud of all the volunteers who I feel like made a BIG difference all these kids' lives and who I feel like got something out of it too. I'm excited to possibly be chair next year!

Meanwhile, I am so looking forward to this quarter being over.

I AM SO BEHIND !!!!!!!!

I'm going to blog about something because I want to procrastinate writing my ethics paper. (psh and i thought i'd be done with writing papers after mentor III) anyways,

this wall post from bethany makes me laugh A LOT.
"so i had my stupid root canal yesterday. and many thoughts came to me during the process that i thought you'd enjoy:

- how long do i have to lay here for?
- i wish i had my ipod with me
- he needs to stop inserting things in there
- i can't wait until i can close my mouth again
- how freaking deep is this canal?

THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID."

HAHAHHAHAAHHA




you know what? i'm not really that happy.
and that kind of makes me even more not happy.
but i'm still gonna act as happy as i can and eventually things will work themeselves out.
right?

cheers

Feb 13Tapex has pink boba? that is quite bizarre...
Finished my midterm and i'm actually kinda free for awhile! woo hooooooooo !


Feb 12
Wonderful foods. I thought i wanted the taro "milkshake". I get it and it tastes like shit. I'm like wtf? this is TARO? its not even purple! LOL i walk outside... and then talk with bethany about it. . . . i got back in.. "um i think i meant to order taro milk tea........." the lady gives me a sad look... THIS IS TARO MILKSHAKE. awkward palmtree. then makes me a new one. and "lets" me keep the TARO MILKSHAKE SHIT. how generous. but to be fair the taro milk tea was delic.
i thoguht it was strange that they have all this candy. and then like pork jerky above it.
Also, i like how i had a midterm the next day but i went out to dinner and the gym even so. gotta enjoy life right? but the balls + pho made my stomach make some interesting noises. awkward.

Feb 11i think i've eaten at subway for like at least 3 days in a row. i think i'm going to vow never to eat there for the next two weeks! I should just go on the subway diet and be the next jarred or wahtever. heeheee

We did dine about town at XYZ at the W hotel. I had high expectations.. but the food wasn't THAT great. it wasn't bad, but i dunno if it was worht the cost. i liked the crab cakes and the sorbet. but like... the pasta main dish really wasn't THAT impressive. maybe i should have ordered the salmon. whatevers. its fun eating at fancy places hahaha

I like how afterwards, we went and got ... boba. =)

- girl sitting behind you..."

UMMMM??
why does everyone assume she was tryign to hit on me? hahahahaha
unfort. i did not go talk to her bec i was in the midst of problem with the cle... so we will never find out....

Jan 21
These are the gloves I wore during lab today. Notice that one of the tips of my glvoes CAME OFF. this happens a lot and it makes me laugh. as lan-anh says ... it makes her feel like michael jackson.
anyways, lab is hard. I took off my glvoes and they were all wet inside .. gross!

Jan 20After spending a free lunc hstudying, justine drew out what she wished she could do:
start at the coffee cup:
drink a cuppa + egg muffin sandwhich
Go to sleep
Make a big poopie
Steal some toilet paper from the janitors at school
Smoke some hash
repeat.

i dont really understand. but ok.
also i dont like how the smiley face is not symmetrical.
LOL

Studying mode: on. =(
BMS is kinda hard this semester... i dont lick dat. i spent my monday fof studying for my test on friday. the library was closed so we had to use this seminar room where the table were chained together... and i had to take it down. notice the chain: ghetto.

Amelia came to visit and we went shopping and she was a bad influence and persuaaded me to get citizens =) but =(
Then we ATE at Ruth's chris ... wait... ruth chris's? i dont know but its a yummy steak house. and dine about town is so much fun. 12oz steak, plus dessert and a starter and a side = 35 dollars ... whaaaaat? the steak was yummy but kinda buttery. but still.. steak is always YUM. MEAT.

plate of food courtesy of CHPSA and extra thanks to justine for reading my mind and being who you are =) but most of all, thanks for bringing me the food so i could stay in lab for 7 hours straight - no bathroom breaks. LOL

Jan 13Spent another long evening in lab ... this time only from 7 - 12. The past few days i've neglected to tidy up my room.... i came back exhuasted to THIS crazy MESS.
Hella random crap all up on my desk! After test case tomorrow = need ot get organized and put my life back together!

Jan 14

Food is always a good way to unwind after testcase! Thanks YJ for cooking for us (finally) it was all very yummy. Thanks sam for not touching the food with your bare hands =)

Jan 7Today was freaking stressful. We had our first crown and bridge. We had to make our preps and then make temporary restorations. Of course I was slow and my stuff turned out shitty. We had lab bascially from 8-5 and i stayed in lab till 6:30. I came home and was POOPED. Thus this picture represents the stress of PRDS lab crap. I kept forgetting to take a picture of my acutally prep while i was in lab bec. once u get in there and start drilling... its seriously like u get in the zone.

Jan 8
Today was yet another stressful day... only with operative! wooo hoooo!!! I can't believe we have a test case next week. anyways, its always the things that are not school related that keeps me sane. I went to a christian fellowship today which was a nice chagne form thinkign about school school school. While we came back, we get in the elevator, samuel pushes the button of the floor we were currently on impatiently and scratches his head... why aren't we moving!? LOL ok, maybe its only funny if you know his background... but this kid trips over himself and its hilarious. We (*cough cough* yeun joo) only laugh at him bec we know he can laugh at his own misfortunes - which is something I think is pretty important!
But seriously, every day this week has gotten progressively worse. . . its these dumb things that keep me laughing. no laughing = very very very bad day.

Today kind of sucked. Way too many lectures. It was just one of those days where i just felt BLAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
The guac made it better.
and the fajitas.
thanks guys!

Jan 4


Oh Settlers. This game kind of hurts my brain and it makes me feel hella nerdy. but whatever. Also, this game creates some really awkward sentences: "SAM, DO YOU HAVE WOOD?" "YEAH I GOT WOOD, WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR IT?" (thats what she said...) ;)


Jan 5

During radiology lecture I accomplished the following: tore up the sticky parts of my cpr training card and put them all over sam. Webcammed with Andrew. Dozed off. Put this sticky mask on sam's face. Talked to linn about chickens that clap when they poo. Made fun of justine and her "feelings." Took about 10 minutes of quality notes.
I've gotta say... better than last semester!

Went to CREATIONS ... I ordered the special "Sago w/+ pomelo, mango" and it came with like ONE slice of pomelo cut in half to make it look like it was actually multiple pieces. Then, my drink was all like JELLO and NO sago balls like i had thought! Betty's drink was all like BALLS. SMALL BALLS. wtf. Add in the mob of fobs that surrounded us = not the most pleasant experience. SHOUDLA GONE TO THE COW PLACE! LOL

So I want to do what Amelia is doing and do this "Project 365" Thing

Jan 1Happy New Years - As my good friend BETHANY says, it is truly one of the most overrated holidays. Even so, we decided to go out and party =)
The sad thing is, I think the times we spent actually getting read and getting there were more fun than acutally being there. Here we are squished like sardines in the free N-Judah =)
Was a good night nonetheless.
buahahah notice how i'm on the phone... OY.

Jan 2

Pretty random... Domo drinking Chamomile Tea. My mom just came into my room and said "you want tea that is good for eye?" She says it in korean and i'm like WHAT!? "you know, um, camouflager tea" .....LOL...... Ever since my dad had retina detachment, she literally says everything is good for your eyes: walnuts, oranges, fish oil pills... basically anything my mom wants my dad to eat but he doesn't want to.
Even though my mom gives me really weird things to eat, I know she has my family's best intentions in mind, and I guess I appreciate it.
Where domo fits into the picture, eh, life needs a little randomness.

wow. i totally forgot i had this.
Basically I started dent school.
It is hard. but not really out of the realm of what I expected to be honest. Its just a lot of getting used to everything... feeling comfortable with everything, new people, blah blah blah.
Bottom line is I passed everything comfortably and that's pretty comforting. It's also comforting to know that even if I did end up failing a midterm or something its not a biggie. <3 P/NP
I love living in sf. i love how i can get to class in less than 5 minutes from my apt.
Sure, it was hard having a real life this semester, but they say this is the hardest semester and I still managed to have a little fun =)
Winter break was kinda short! Back to winter quarter startin the 5th! booooo

That's really all I gotta say about school.

imma keep this updated more often i think....
