- I've changed so much since i came here. ever since i came, everything changed. i am never the little girl again, there isn't a day that i'm truely happy, there are always moments during the day when i feel aweful, when i feel that it's the end of the world. it's been 2 years, but the hate n bitterness are still deep in my heart. they are never gone. n i know that i am the one who's not letting them go. i hold on to them so tightly that i just don't know how to let go anymore. i want to let go or maybe i don't. hate n bitterness have became drugs to me. i am addicted to them.

TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:06:02): u know UCs' apps is easy
MisssNutsss (上午 12:06:06): yea
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:06:11): but the more school u apply, the more apps u have to write
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:06:16): the more personally statement u have to write
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:06:20): the more money u r payin
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:06:34): some schools have weird essays requirement
MisssNutsss (上午 12:06:43): UC's one app
MisssNutsss (上午 12:06:48): csu has one app

MisssNutsss (上午 12:09:51): my grades are good
MisssNutsss (上午 12:10:02): just not my sat score
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:10:06): that's not true
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:10:20): i really think personal statement is more important
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:10:44): and for UCs..SATII count heavier than SATI
MisssNutsss (上午 12:10:51): o
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:11:02): but it really doesnt matter which school u end up attending seriously
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:11:13): in college...really doesnt matter
MisssNutsss (上午 12:11:26): it matters to my parents
MisssNutsss (上午 12:11:29): n me too
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:11:31): unless u r thinkin about going to grad school rite after undergrad
MisssNutsss (上午 12:11:50): i mean it will be soo embarrassing to tell ppl that i go to de anza
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:11:55): because it is really about what u learn outside of classroom count..which means what u put on ur resume
MisssNutsss (上午 12:12:01): or some kind of college that ppl haven't haerd of
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:12:02): so?
MisssNutsss (上午 12:12:15): it feels bad
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:12:16): many of my friends transfer to good UCs after 2 years of CC
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:12:21): it's a lot cheaper
MisssNutsss (上午 12:12:37): the sucess rate is getting lower each yr
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:12:44): well...but it feels even worse that u graduate from brown and cant find a job
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:12:49): which happens A LOT
MisssNutsss (上午 12:12:55): not in taiwan
MisssNutsss (上午 12:13:00): or hong kong

TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:13:27): well...then it even MORE doesnt matter
MisssNutsss (上午 12:13:32): ?
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:13:42): u know in taiwan they confused U Penn and Penn State?
MisssNutsss (上午 12:13:47): lol

MisssNutsss (上午 12:14:38): ok but ppl will never mix up berkeley n deanza
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:14:43): as long as u have the language ability (which u do) and a diploma from USA..u will be fine
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:15:00): but u r not goin to graduate from de Anza honey....u will transfer eventually!

TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:15:45): i strongly encourage u do choose a big school instead of small ones
TaiwangirlVivian (上午 12:15:59): because big school usually has more opportunities

GOD, where are you? WHERE ARE YOU?????? Why aren’t you here when I need you? WHY?! Can you not see me suffering? Why are you doing this to me? Why do you put me through this? Why do you have me deal with something that I can’t handle? Why did you leave me? Aren’t you suppose to be the loving and amazing god that you are famous for? Didn’t you say that you love your children? Am I not your child? Then WHY? Why are you letting me suffer? A father doesn’t let his children suffer, does he? A father loves his children soooo much that when his children don’t feel good, he doesn’t feel good too and when his children cry, his heart should feel like being stabbed with a knife! Can you feel a knife stabbing your heart right now? Can you feel my pain? Do you know how I feel? You do, don’t you? I mean YOU SHOULD, you are the God who knows everything. God, I just don’t understand. Why do I have to go through this? Do I deserve it? What did I do wrong? I am ANGRY, VERY ANGRY!!!!!!! Why am I here?! I hate here! I hate everything about America, everything in America! I hate public schools! I hate poor schools! This school has no money and it has a disgusting campus! I hate being poor! I hate life! I hate pretending! Pretending that I'm the happy, pretending that I feel great, pretending that everything's fantastic. And do you know any of that? God, do you? DO YOU???!!! I just don’t get it, I really don’t. Why am I here? Ain’t I suppose to be in England? Oh, I know! My parents aren’t rich enough to support the expensive tuition fee, so they kicked me here after letting me enjoyed one year in heaven. I kept telling myself that knowing God is the biggest present I got in America and this was the biggest purpose that you sent me here but I realized that it was a lie, an excuse that I told myself to make me feel better.
everything has a purpose and what is the purpose for this god? i am tired, i really am. i wish everything would come to an end. Thursday, September 7, 2006
- my senior pix came today, all 7 of them look horrible. stupid proimage/photographer, mostly the photographer's fault! halo?! can't u see that i have extremely wide n thin shoulders aka this position doesn't fit me! n my baggy n different size/shape eyes n
n my head looks 50X bigger than my body!! it looks like a watermelon on top of a baby bamboo stick! n my flat nose n my too shiny lip gloss n my eyebrows r too high n i look like a wax smiling!

camping in calaveras big tree state park was great except for the shower part, the ironstone winery was even better (i've decided that i'm going to have my wedding there :P). will update more bout it later
the song that's playing rite now is my new obsession, just love the lyrics, they are sooo meaningful!
THIS LITTLE CHILD
Written and Performed by Scott Wesley Brown
Verse 1
Who would of thought that long ago
So very far away,
A little child would be born
And in a manger laid?
And who would have thought this little child
Was born the King of kings,
The Son of just a carpenter
For whom the angels sing?
And who would have thought that as He grew
And with other children played
This child with whom they laughed and sang
Would die for them some day
And who would have thought this little child
Could make a blind man see,
Feed the hungry, make rich the poor
And set the sinner free?
Oh who would have thought this little child
Was who the prophets said?
Would take away the sins of man
And rise up from the dead![Chorus]
And I believe! And I will always sing,
"This little child is the King!"
Oh, I believe. And, I will always sing,
"This little child
He is the King of kings!"
Verse 2
Many years have come and gone
Yet this world remains the same.
Empires have been built and fallen
Only time has made a change.
Nation against nation.
Brother against brother.
Men so filled with hatred
Killing one another.
And over half the world is starving
While a banner of decency is torn.
Debating over disarmament.
Killing children before they're born.
And fools who march to win the right
To justify their sin.
Oh every nation that has fallen
Has fallen from within!
Yet in the midst of this darkness,
There is a hope, a light that burns.
This little child -the King of kings-
Some day will return![Chorus]
And I believe! And I will always sing,
"This little child is the King!"
Oh, I believe. And, I will always sing,
"This little child
He is the King of kings!"
Verse 3
Who would have thought this little child
Is who the prophets said
Will return to judge this world
The living and the dead?
Oh, can't you see that long ago,
So very far away,
This little child-- our only hope--
Was born a King that day!?
