We went to elementary school together in Berkeley, at John Muir on Claremont.

Played double dutch a few times together, too.

Then in high school we weren't in any of the same classes but the times we've passed by each other in the hall we're greeted each other.

She's very stylish. like very much.

Now she's studying down in Santa Monica.

Hope she doesn't mind that I posted a couple of her pics here, if she happens to google herself and find this.

an indie-type artist's dwelling

L.h-w, cca student, current home in the mission.

Photo-lurking on fbook, living vicariously.

I would much, much rather be the real indie/artsy type going to an art school than moderately artsy and studying economics. :\

Being first-generasian has its typisches expectations.

I don't know how I've never been there before. x[

Today I unintentionally ran 6 miles, instead of my usual 4. Ughh these big curving La Jolla/UTC streets are so disorienting. I should consult a map next time before deciding to try a new route. Also, my chances of getting hit by a car are increasing. I just need to get over my fear of getting hit by a car and not hesitate running across the crosswalk right when the light turns green.

I'm pretty tired right now, should go to bed, but I've gotten into the habit of blogging every day.

When I'm too tired/busy to post links and pics and write a bit about interesting stuff, I post pictures. This one is a photo taken on an iphone by this cool indie jewish kid who is currently a first-year at UCSC, which is of course where all the cool indie (or not indie) grass-happy berkeley kids go. I was in this lame "heart fitness" phys.ed class with him sophomore year.

I have like probably 20 draft entries with just links saved in the body paragraph.

recording studio

Berkeley/Berkeley High's indie rock band (featured in the "high school bands" issue of East Bay Express last year—article) Please Quiet Ourselves' sophomore album is due soon. Or already out?

PQO's myspace (not all band members pictured above)

From their debut album (listen on imeem):

Sunburn, Color Chart, and Minor vs. Majors

pano;; wallet

Work was dismal today. No one wants sushi on a (relatively) cold Monday? Monday nights are usually good. Mehh.

Reading Sputnik Sweetheart by Haruki Murakami. Checked out Jack Kerouac's On The Road from the BPL today.

80spurple warehouse 30-70% off sale started today. Ughh I hate it when I buy stuff that was on sale, but then later check back to see it's marked further down. x[ Oh wells.

Adding to my 80spurple purchases: a Nixon black leather bifold wallet.

I've been wanting a guystyle wallet for a while.

Packing for home after summer session, I forgot to put my bottle of clear nail polish in my suitcase, so I put it haphazardly in my backpack, in the section where I put lots of junk including my scientific calculator that I've mostly used just to calculate my test scores (ex. 38 / 45 = ...?) and my deck of death cards and my wallet.

In the plane getting up to leave the aircraft, waiting in cue, I opened up that section of my backpack to retrieve my cell phone, and yes.. the absolutely noticeably smell of nail polish. Great. and it had gotten on my black Volcom girl fake leather large checkbook style wallet. I've only had that wallet for a year. Of course it's still usable, but because it's got all these sections, I put hecka crap in there including 4 slides of my art from AP studio art last last year and concert tickets and receipts and cards I don't use.

Glad I'm finally getting a guystyle wallet. Won't fit in my jeans' back pocket, but.. yay! Wallets are definitely another item I strongly prefer guystyle than girls.

Also got new clear nail polish.

On another note, I just checked the cell phone bill for the month.

My mom used 771 minutes.

My minutes usage: 170.

backseat

I'm lagging on blogging. So I post multiple entries and backdate them.

fb photo albums

Going to be blogging real tumblr style for a bit.

What did I do this morning?

I facebook-photo stalked.

Hopefully she keeps her profile public to her network.

Gots more blog material photos.

Art school/indie/Berkeley kids are so interesting.

Not captioning with any names. Can't have anyone googling themselves and landing on my blog, finding out that I stole their pictures. ahah

Music posts postponed.

Which means I won't be getting many hits to my blog.
