she cried rape and no one helped

http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/30105703/?GT1=43001 Where is justice in this world when you need it? Yes, she should have known better than to ride the train alone at 2am. At least get her boyfriend to wait at the station for her and call him already when she felt something was wrong. However, to have the stupid MTA staff not do anything but just push…

saving the world with (RED)

Quote from an 11-year-old African boy. This is what I call smart. Not even those stupid ang mohs who think they know so much about the world could beat him. “‘We know about AIDS,’ he said, ‘much more than the uncles who are supposed to care for us and try to teach us about it. But if you don’t care…

newbies and elitists

So I have a new assignment for Journalism class which is to interview a professional journalist. I spent a night scouring online newspapers and plucking out names. I was wondering whether what I was doing would be fruitful at all. Suddenly I had a brilliant idea to look for an LJ community for Journalism. Was thinking that maybe professional people…

love candle

We went to Wal-mart yesterday for our usual grocery shopping. After the whole rotting watermelon episode, it was time to get some air freshener. Well, we did get the air freshener, but we got something more… Cute candles! No prize for correct guess which one is mine. 🙂

you da suck lahz

I HATE it when customer service staff give that kind of attitude like you owe them a living. I just got off the phone with the guy at the post office. I called to ask if I could reshedule delivery for some packages since Deary would be mostly at home tomorrow. The guy who answered my call was rather curt…

year of the moo moo

Happy Chinese New Year! Well, it’s almost here. Year of the moo moo, my year! Which sadly means I’m 24 this year. The years just fly by. Opened one of our prized cans of abalone yesterday. Savoured every bit of it. We even saved the brine to use in my cooking.

colourful candy

Thung Han came home from California and brought some candy for all. I was attracted to the colours and had a tough time picking out the ones I wanted. After I was down to 10 (6 brightly coloured ones, 4 dull), I couldn’t decide which 2 I wanted. Thung Han said I could have all, as in all 10. Yay!…

school is almost starting again

My bad for the no-update. I’m currently enjoying the last few days of winter break. Come Tuesday it’ll be back to being a chao mugger. I already received some not too good news regarding one of the subjects I’m taking – ADV410. Prof Olsen emailed to “warn” us of the schedule which includes lots of presentations and projects. “Presentation” –…

2009

I know this is kinda late, but 明けましておめでとう! I ushered in the new year in the hotel in Anchorage, eating Nong Shim (super spicy cup noodle), and watching the countdown at Times Square, New York on tv. I am now at Fairbanks. I pray that the new year starts off good. Please let me see an aurora. I don’t make new year…

have a moose in your backyard

Welcome to Alaska! The land of below freezing temperatures, knee-deep snow, and moose in your backyard. No kidding. We just saw one outside the hotel next to ours. It was happily munching on the vegetation just outside the back door of that hotel. Imagine someone goes out through the back door and…WHOA. :woot: I spotted the huge animal while we…
