This is why I love the internet.

CLICK THE PICTURE. (You know you want to)

Doing what I'm not supposed to. Haha!

Guess where I am.
I'm updating my blog from the school library; oh, the boredom.

Just thought I would share.

Mmm... God.

San Francisco weather has once again taken a complete turn. Just last week, I was shivering in my black skinny jeans and wool jacket. Today, I'm resisting the urge to dump a tub of ice water on my outfit of tee-shirt and short-shorts.

So, life is remotely boring.

Lately, it seems that the major topic of discussion is Lowell Jr. Prom.
Really, what's the point?
Maybe I'm just bitter (sad face) that nobody has asked me yet. I mean, what a self-esteem boost, eh?
Whatever.

But really, what's the point of a JUNIOR prom and a prom?
Actually, I don't understand formal dances at all. You buy a nice dress, get all dolled up, only to dance awkwardly with a bunch of friends you see everyday anyway and watch strangers grind. Actually, sometimes you even catch people you know grinding. Believe me: A-W-K-W-A-R-D.

Well, I suppose I shouldn't let it bother me so much. So what if nobody has asked me? So what if I accidentally take it as a sign that I am socially retarded and not-so-gorgeous? :/

Since I'm on a school computer, I can't attach a wonderous song. Shall edit later, eh?

It's almost not snowing.

Here's a lame poem I came up with on the bus ride this afternoon:

San Francisco: The giant oxymoron

The warm sun soaks through my jeans,
As I lean against the ice-cold bus wall,
my head raps violently against the vibration of double-layered windows.
The machine gun-like assault of ice pellets
clatter through the bright afternoon sun.
The clouds are rolling in. away. blue. gray.
Blond hair, blue eyed.
Black hair, brown eyed.
Pink purple blue green red bleached...
dreamy lost excited angry pathetic eyes
staring up at the bipolar sky.
Oh shit. It's hailing out there.

March 08, 2010. The day the sky went bazookers.

Today was, to put it simply, amazing.

I love the rain. Especially when I'm not caught in it.
What do I love more than the rain?

Oh HAIL yes. :]

Tiny pellets of ice, striking down from the sky.
Rather poetic, don't you think?

Today was literally sunshine one second, and pouring rain the next. In the afternoon, the rain turned into hail.

After I got home, I stuck my head out the window for quite a while, just enjoying the amazing freshness of after-rain air.
As if that wasn't enough, I packed my bag and went up to the roof.
I had a pleasant thirty seconds of peace before a sudden swarm of miniature hail chased me back indoors. What? I'm not that waterproof.

This is how the sky looked like outside of my house right after the sky's temper tantrum.

Too bad I don't have a better camera. It really was (and still is) a gorgeous scene.

I absolutely adore the sky. Every single time I lift my head, the sky astounds me with its breathtaking beauty.
It's so blue, so gray, so dark, so light. So peaceful, so wild, so pure, so convoluted...
It's me and everything I can't be.

Afterwards, the sun came out for one last epic battle before the clouds took over:

Right now, at the tranquil hour of seven before six, the sky is a soft lavender with gorgeous rolling clouds.

I would give everything I have just to become a bird and to feel the wind against every inch of my skin, or become a falling star and let the atmosphere set me alight as I rush through the weightless clouds.

I am so grateful for nature, yet so extremely bitter.

Why was I not borne with wings?

Well, now here I am. Indoors and staring at my computer, blogging. Perhaps nature just isn't my element, although I do love the sky to pieces.

Honestly speaking, I would murder the whole world for the power of flight. :)


Letter From the Sky - Civil Twilight 

Call the coast guard, Dumbledor's army, the amber lamps. I just updated my blog.

Not that anyone reads this, anyway.
Guess what?

NEW SHOES!

They make me very happy.

I went to Ross today in search of a new backpack, and stumbled upon these babies:

They're the perfect combinations of "i-don't-give-a-fuck" and mainstream hipster: grey Converse low-tops with too many holes and elastic shoelaces. Elastic laces! How cool is that? When I found them on the shelf, my jaw almost hit the floor. Then, I saw about four identical pairs laying around, and thus felt less unique. And yet, I couldn't help but buy them for the not-so-cheap bargain of $19.00. The shoes also come with complementary black shoelaces. What I love is that there are, like, a thousand holes for the laces. But I think it would be a gigantic pain in the ass to lace these shoes, and I'll probably never crank out the black alternatives.

These shoes are more exciting than your black low-top clones, almost as crazy as Punkrose high-tops, but plain enough to stay true blue. 

Either way, I'm happy. It's been a while since I've had an awesome fashion-find.

(And in case you haven't noticed, I finally have a camera!)

Okay, well, camera phone.

 Say hello to my (other) new baby, the Samsung Reclaim.

It's blue, it's innovative, it's eco-friendly;

And god damn it, it talks.

It's infinitely amusing (and slightly annoying) to have my phone say "Okay" in a pleasant female voice every time I press the middle button.

Oh, and if I abuse the number pad enough, I can make the lady say "Star! 1, 2, 3, POW POW POW POW POW."

And, just a treat for my very inner teenage boy:

"Six six six sex sex se-se-se-se-sex."

:)

On top of all that spectacularity (yes, I have just made up a new word), I also have text! (Well, it is a text-centric phone after all.) Although I haven't the slightest idea who I might text with, but the feeling of empowerment from the completely useless cellphone service delights me.

And my phone comes with a dainty little game where I attempt to prevent global warming with tiny pixelated characters. I'm almost saving the world. I promise.

And no, I didn't buy a new backpack. I suppose I'll either stick with my tattered, smelly, but amazingly durable frankenpack (yes, it's a play of Frankenstein). But hey, it's a side-sling. Side-slings are always fun. :]

Anyway, over and out. 

I will update tomorrow with restaurant reviews! I've been frequenting restaurants lately. Certainly new for me, and a pleasant change of lifestyle.

Stay tuned for my exciting Thai, Vietnamese, and I-have-no-idea-what-I'm-eating adventures! Oh, and a little bonus Italian fun.

Adorable song I stumbled upon on iTunes a few months back. It really makes me smile.
