sick
September 23rd, 2001
i’ve been feeling sick.. must because i worked too hard yesterday. last nite when i went to bed i couldn’t fall asleep coz i had great back pain…. andy was giving me massage which really helped and i had to take extra strength tylenol. i woke up sleepy this morning. but i couldn’t stop myself from checking my new guestbook. many ppl signed, i was very happy. i added the edit function so now i can have admin reply in each entry with a matter of click.
daynah’s in disneyland today. i’m so happy that she’s having so much fun. coz the sky here today sure doesn’t look too pleasing.
i have to read three more short stories for creative writing. i just don’t feel like doing it.. what do you do when you don’t feel like doing school work?

cedar rapids
September 18th, 2001
a trip to cedar rapids was intended for a seminar for andy’s psychology class as an extra credit. unfortunately half hour of driving was totally wasted after we found out that seminar was cancelled for whatever reason. and i had a bad headache by the time we got off car. fortunately there was a walmart nearby, so andy and i got off and andy got me some tylenol along with some other stuff that we needed… later we ate at godfather’s pizza.. the resturant was so slow… we were the only ppl eating there.. crazy.. i was so stuffed… on the way home we kept talking about how musicians nowaday don’t really care about their music rather to make money by marketing psychology…
now that i’m finally home and totally exhausted and will be getting ready to hit the bed =) so good nite everyone!

almost burned down the house
September 17th, 2001
yesterday when my friend martha arrived, we started cooking. when andy started the wrapping egg rolls, i filled the wak with oil and placed it on the stove and turned it to high. while andy’s in the kitchen finishing up the egg rolls, i eagerly headed the bedroom with martha to show her all the cool things i got lately. with our excitement in my mind, hot wak quickly drifted out. next thing i heard was andy’s scream in the kitchen. as soon as we stepped back to the kitchen, andy was holding a wak buring in flames. the fire was both outside and inside of the wak. due the large amount of oil i put in, the fire didn’t seem want to stop.
soon the wak was too hot for andy to hold, out of panic, he placed it on the floor. for a moment i didn’t know what to do. andy told me to put some kind of power over it. i took out the jar of floor and poured in. the fire only got worse afterward. i was praying that we wont burn the house down. finally andy took the act and asked us to open the door and he grabbed the oven mittens and swiftly picked up the wak and ran outside.
the wak that was still burning outside in the walkway soon cooled down and fire was out. but the tile in kitchen was severely damaged with an ugly circle of ashes.
we were all happy that we were still alive and nothin too important got damaged. only that andy’s hand had a mild burn.
later andy and i went to menards and go a square foot of a new tile to replace the old area. altho the pattern was distinctly different from the old tile, it looked much better than having rings of black ashes.
the life that goes on
September 16th, 2001
i just finished cooking dumplings. today andy and i are having a friend over. andy’s on his way to pick her up now and when she arrives, we will make egg rolls =) i always have fun cooking. what can you cook? =) isn’t cooking so much fun?
many people are impressed by my new layout… let me tell you something.. i started this layout last time with layers of the themes of the building blew up and the map of where the tragedy occured. but later when i started putting on layers of doves.. the doves just covered the previous up.. and i kept lowing the opacity of the previous layers.. so it’s very hard for you to see those horrible images again.. i think it’s kinda like how my mind worked while i was designing it. peace covers tragedy. we will finally find peace after tragedy.. i really wish everyone else in this world would think the same way…
sigh..
may the dove fly high………………..
go on with life?
September 15th, 2001
last nite when i turned on the tv for the first time. i watched the story of a girl whose step father was on that second plane went into the world trade center. he took that plane to california to attend her wedding. her mother sold many stocks to get enough money for his trip. after the incident, the daughter deemed thoroughly and decided to continue with the wedding which was scheduled for today. her mom told her, her step father would never want her cancel the wedding for any reason. go on with life.. when the journalist interviewed her, she couragously said she wanted to show the terrorists that they were not powerful enough to panic her, to make the supposed best day of her life go away. she will enjoy the wedding as it’s planned. i was very touched by her words.
there is no doubt that deep it our hearts, there’s something missing.. something not quite right… but we do need to go on with our normal lives and be able to enjoy things around us as much as before, shouldn’t we?
to the girl and her family: congratulations!
blood drive
September 14th, 2001
today when was in the mall downtown to get my lunch, i saw this incredible long time of blood donors. i was very impressed while a bit confused.. the last time i heard was they got 6 people out of the ashes.. how much more blood do they need? nevertheless, it was really touching to see how people around the country suddenly feel so close to hurted families.
on the other hand, arab americans are having a difficult time these days.
NOSTRADAMUS?
September 13th, 2001
people on my board are talking about the city of god quote 500 years ago from NOSTRADAMUS… well many people claim to have heard of it years ago and believe the saying now came true. i’m think if the saying is so popular, why couldn’t it be that the terriorist planned their attack based on this saying to make people more nervous about the whole situation. some clarification of this can be found here.. when words spread too quickly online.. ppl tend to add in their own parts.
