I love Christmas; it's the best holiday of the year. I don't think it's all about the presents, but it's much more than that. It's the festivity, especially the love and joy that's in the air. People are happy. People are giving because it's the holiday season. It's not getting things in return but it's giving as an act of kindness (volunteering, donating to people who are less fortunate, helping them have a happy holiday as well) or just as act of appreciation (giving my family presents to show them that I appreciate their love and support).
Anyway happy holidays everyone. May your holidays be filled with love and happiness.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Next year I'll give it to someone,
I'll give it to someone special special
Someone who'll give me something in return
I'll give it to someone special.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Today is a pretty chill day; spending time with the family.
I'm thankful to be healthy, fed, housed, and happy. Thankful to be loved by family and friends. I know sometimes we take things for granted, but it's good to reflect and take in what's really important in life.
On another note, Black Friday shopping! Yay!
*Edit
I didn't get any electronics, but instead got a lot of Christmas presents for the family and clothes. Good day 4am - 6pm. My feet hurt...

Poker Face
I guess I’m a bit mysterious. You ever wonder who your true self is? Sometimes we act different around different people, not because we aren’t being ourselves but they bring out a different side of us. I think all these facets combined make us who we are.
I like how people think they have me figured out, but you don’t. Maybe I don’t want people to know that much. It’s not the first time someone has said that I’m a complex person. Is that really a bad thing? I do hide things pretty well when I’m down. I don’t want people to worry about me, especially if they can’t help me. I know my friends are there to support me, but I rather not burden them. I choose to deal with it on my own til I’m aite, then I’ll share. Maybe one day someone will totally understand, until then you can’t read my po-po-poker face.

Chibi Wolverine
Wow I am seriously injury-prone. I have powderpuff football next Thursday and a football tournament next weekend. This is the worst time to get a sprained ankle. Like really? Some higher power is messing with me for some reason. Two years ago at Asian Olympics, I jammed my finger. Yet I kept playing with it, so I ended up having to get an x-ray for fractures. I sprained different ankles during football and volleyball intramurals. I busted my lip going for an interception this year. Bleh.
So this time, it went down like this: Wednesday night practice one week before the Adobo Bowl. I'm placed at blocker so I get short dumps and then sprint off. Yada we practice offensive plays and run routes. Then on D, I dove for this guy's flags. My head was under his elbow, so he smacks me on the head. I get a cut so it starts bleeding. I sit out for a bit. I go back for offense, and 10 minutes later I'm on the ground with a rolled ankle. I mean I guess I went out on my biggest play of practice, but still, that's lame! It's practice! We run this wall play, and I'm designated to get the ball. I ran a deep post left while all the other girls run right. I catch the ball and run. [my mind: "Why am I running? This is pretty much a TD, and it's practice."] Too late for thoughts because I get flagged; he fell, and I fell with him. Not sure what happened but I end up rolling my ankle. I get carried away like a maiden back to rest. Embarrassing. I sit out for awhile longer and decide my ankle's not that bad. I could still flex it, so I go back for 10 more minutes of practice before I actually pack up and leave. I soon realize that it hurts to run or do any quick movements, so I just line up and catch balls without any running.
I limped around the rest of that night. My friend offered me a piggyback ride to my apartment, but I refused. 1) I didn't think my injury was that bad. 2) I could still walk. 3) I hate feeling "fragile" or "weak". Yes maybe I'm not physically strong as I am emotionally or mentally, but I'm not going to adhere to it. 4) I'm super stubborn. The next day, I crawled around. My ankle swelled up like crazy; it was purple, green, and fat. I couldn't put any pressure or weight on it; it was pretty painful.
Now I'm currently on Day 4 of Recovery, and it sucks. I can walk but with a lil swagger. I've been a super bum and rejected all outings just so that I can rest. I must play football next week, or I will be insanely furious! The swelling's gone down. I ice it and rub IcyHot cream onto it religiously. *sidenote* IcyHot cream is like "Dau" lol. Anyways I'm hoping I'll be like Wolverine and have super-speedy healing powers. I need it hardcore and asap.

Gossip Girl
Oh em gee I LOVE Gossip Girl. It's seriously my guilty pleasure to watch and one of the few shows I follow consistently. Yes, it's super dramatic and all, but whatever.
Real reason to watch GG? Chuck and Blair. As individuals, they are perhaps the most flawed characters, but together they better each other. I love their characters; they are real and complex. They have the best relationship out of everyone in the show; I'm just watching to see their epic love story play out. I'm waiting for them to get back together and end up together. The hopeless romantic side of me is going all crazy for them; I keep spamming Chair scenes on YouTube. *Sighs... Their love is pretty undeniable.
Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester are amazing actors; their on-screen chemistry makes me wish they were a real-life couple and that their love was actually real. I want to feel what they feel, to have a love like that. I want my own Chuck Bass...
Three words, eight letters, say it and I'm yours.
Next time you forget that you're Blair Waldorf, remember I'm Chuck Bass and I love you.
Sub-reason to watch? The fashion.
Currently listening to Blue Moon - Kendal Johansson

Baby Touchdowns
Alright so this is going to be my last post on football for awhile. I've been quite obsessed haha. Flag football intramurals at UTD are over, but I'm thinking about scrimming once in awhile with local leagues for some good practice. Coming up in November is UTD Powderpuff football and the Adobo Bowl tournament. Totally getting my football fix in :) I need to practice practice practice; I want to be almost good as those girls in Lingerie Football. Seriously it's my goal.
OMG are they BEAST or what! And hott.

Dear Your Beastness,
Yesterday night officially ended the flag football season for me. My women's team lost in the playoffs, but overall it was a good game. I'm okay with us losing this one compared to the corec fluke because we actually did our best in the game. For never having a full-team practice with just the girls, we did pretty good, given that we were going against the top seed, the basketball girls. Our defense was tight; they surprisingly didn't mercy rule us. Maybe because we knew there was a high possibility of losing, we focused on trying new things and improving others, while having fun. We tried all these random and sometimes crazy plays; some actually worked! Hahah they were all named after food (Ihop, cookies, pho). I ran the football all the way from one endzone to the other; I passed like 4 defenders down the field. I think I'm getting pro at the ballerina spinning technique so that people can't grab your flags. Haha. Once I got to the endzone I acted cool about it, but secretly I was super stoked inside. Dude it was my first touchdown running the whole field length. I also busted my lip, trying to get an interception. It better not leave a scar!
Thank you guys on the sideline for the support; I love having people cheer you on. :) Good job girls; I am so proud. Shout out to Lan Nguyen, Tiffany Lu, Karen Shen, Olivia Dao, Evonne Yang, and Judy Lam! Such beastness!
Karen - girl you got some handsss
Judy - way to put pressure rushing
Olivia - good catch; I got ya ;)
Lan - awesome defense; grab those flags!
Evonne - pick ftw!
Tiffany - let's goo Miss QB :)
Missing Christina :(

Unclutch
Time for a quick post/rant before I pass out. It's 3:35 am, and I need to vent this shit out so I can sleep peacefully and wake up normal and happy.
Anyway so playoffs for flag football started today. I was so pumped and antsy the whole day waiting for our corec game. 10 pm comes, and we realized we have a pretty good shot at winning our first round of playoffs. No sweat. Game starts. We drop balls. We lose yards on the hike. All in all, our offensive totally choked tonight. We ended up losing 6-7.
Why???!!! We did so well regular season! The one game that matters most, we don't win. Talk about unclutch. My td streak of 1+ a game is also ruined tonight! WTF. Seriously to lose to a team who wasn't as competitive and as good as our team is a slap to the face. We usually score three touchdowns in game and to lose with one touchdown to end our season is another slap to the face. What were we doing??? Time went so fast! Why didn't someone on the sideline come inform us that we were out of it?
Usually I wouldn't be this upset over losing a game, but I had confidence in our team to pull through. This wasn't our best at all; it didn't portray our skills, discipline, coordination, and teamwork at all... What's worst was we lost to a team that apparently didn't believe in themselves enough to try to secure the lead with a second touchdown. Really now? Sorry teammates... I ran short of the extra point... we could have been tied but in all honesty we should have scored easily and much higher. One point wouldn't even be a factor. After their pitiful one point lead, they decide to run down the clock as much as possible. There's 15 seconds after line-set to hike the ball; they counted down to like 4 seconds to hike. They did this for the last quarter of the game. Lame!!! I also got penalized for bad sportsmanship...(Sorry team). I like how they didn't call a penalty for pass interference on the defense. I ran an out to the left and would have caught the ball if 1) this chick on the opposing didn't tip it, 2) this dude didn't bombard me. Actually take out 1 because I still would have caught the football; it was still in the air and all wobbly. BUT as I hustled to catch it, this dude out of nowhere just rams into me, pushing out of bounds. WTF. The ball spirals away, and the pass is incomplete. At this point I am collided by two people, especially this dude who obviously exhibits illegal contact. Dude you are supposed to go for the FOOTBALL. It [the ball] sadly isn't even close to fumbling into your hands. You either go for the ball or my flags, but no you ran into me. So I'm on the ground, super P.O. I exclaim "WHAT THE HELL" really loud and get a penalty. Stupid ass call. Also towards the end, the other team decides to run down the clock even more with closed plays. The QB just runs around as long as he can and doesn't throw to a girl. Smart move because you guys know that we would easily pick it and run it back. Touche scrubs. Next time try to play more based on skill and not luck and cheap tactics. I am done hating.
To lose like this is not worthy and not fair. I am pissed off beyond words. It is @#*!!!!! times infinity. I am too competitive for my own good...
Screw intramurals, time to play with the leagues.

Mr. Postman
I LOVE getting things in the mail. It's like getting and opening a present, even if I know what's inside. Most of the time it's something I bought, but the act of unwrapping it still makes me excited and happy. Haha
Lately my Microsoft internship has fulfilled my love for deliveries from Mr. Postman. I got a free laptop, sidewalk chalk, gym bags, Windows U gear, and soon free kicks from New Balance! :D
Totally legit.

Spaceship
Jump on a spaceship, take off
Jump on a spaceship, get on
Sitting on top of the world
Watching the stars
Go by
I got my head in a dream
Got my head in the clouds
I can fly, I can fly, I can fly
This song by Benny Benassi is super catchy; I love finding new music by non-mainstream artists. Anyway it describes my mood right now, "so get high, get high" (not with drugs, with happiness lol)
Today I went and dropped my finance major; I didn't realize how sure I was of the decision until after the fact. I felt happy and for once, I did something totally to be happy. It was no longer a debate between what I wanted vs. what I needed to do. I kept tagging along finance as a back-up plan even though I didn't enjoy it. I digg my own money but I could care less about dealing with others'. Plus I don't plan on failing so no need for a Plan B. I have 5 classes left to finish my B.S. in marketing compared to 11 classes to double-major. I'm only taking 2 classes now, so more time for art and more internships! It's a load off my shoulders; my senior year is going to be a breeze. Time to chill down and calm out lol. I'll worry about further plans later.
Like Bob Marley says, "Don't worry, be happy."

Go Cowboys!!!
So I don't know how many times I say I love football, but I LOVE it. It's a more recent obsession, stemming from all those intramurals and people I hung out with in college, but sadly my university doesn't have a football team. Anyway flag football season is in full swing, and I'm super stoked. I've been so sleep-deprived this past week due to exams but it doesn't apply to late-night football. It's sad how I'll skip class but I won't skip a game. lol
VSA Corec "Victorious Secret" is pretty awesome and amazing! We've had two games so far, both against two basketball teams. We lost both but it was pretty competitive given their athletic and height advantage. We totally should have won that last game; we had three TD's that didn't count, and we played much better than them. They luckily scored a girl TD at the end to win by one point. So gayyy. But it was a REALLY good game given our plays, probably our best offensive game ever. We didn't even need to punt the ball the whole game haha.
I'm getting more addicted, the better I get at football. My catches are so much more solid now *insert proud moment*. My defense's pretty good; I'm pro at flagging, but I need to work on getting "picks" instead of just swatting the ball away. I'm surprised I'm still super speedy given the fact that I never run besides sprinting during games or sports. But I've averaged a touchdown every game so far, so yeah I'm a badass at football. lol.
Super sidenote: Cowboys better win a game tomorrow! We're such a stacked team, but why do our offensive line suck balls??? I blame the coaches...
But dear Cowboys, please win. Thank you. <3
***edit*** Cowboys did win. 1-2 now. Redemption!!! Now we need to keep playing like that and better.
So the big guy in white shorts is kinda a douche. He kept blitzing. Note: Dude, this is FLAG football, chill down. I jammed my finger flagging him so many times and totally just bitch-slapped the ball out of his hand near the end. lol. But sidenote: I look swollll hahahaha. Look at what muscles I do have! O.o
VSA Corec "Victorious Secret" is pretty awesome and amazing! We've had two games so far, both against two basketball teams.

Lost then Found
It's finally a new year, and I'm determined to get back to my Miss Independent and Miss I-Can-Do-It self. I can't go back in time, so it's time to forget about time machines and the past and look forward to the future. Crystal balls may not exist, so I guess I'll have to make my own. If I've learned anything in the past year, it's that nothing's set in stone. Things change, people change; I just gotta plan for the unexpected. Fate places a person at a specific time and place, but what that person chooses to do changes everything. I'm making new plans and goals and learning to just do it. I'll be successful. I AM and always am my own fate threader...
Goals for the Year 2010 - Year of the Tiger
And you know you have the chance to change it
So when you get the chance
Or take an easier road?
Why are we playin' it safe?
Why don't you rise up now?
