ONE

was a success.

Sleep time.

One week to ONE

The last week and a half was an utterly draining one for personal reasons. And by personal I mean I haven't had the time to look back and discern exactly what it was that was stressing me out and making me an emotional wreck, but I'll have to find some pause soon to do so.

And no, that one entry (you know which one I'm talking about) was not me going off the loose end, but if you read my tags you'll see that it was my friend taking on my persona in a most flattering manner.

In any case, I'm looking forward to the next few weeks.

First week of Nov. will be the WorldMUN and Breakers retreat. 2 retreats in one weekend - exciting. But before that...

Our first ever breakers show is coming up and I am not incredibly nervous (I'm sure everything will come together) but very excited. Now, I just have to continue practicing (without injuring myself, I can see all the bruises developing).

The title ONE is interesting. In the past we have never had pieces that we would only perform once. A routine learned was a routine performed every (other) weekend. But this time, with all 10 pr so pieces lined up, this is the one and only time we will put on ONE. Now I'm getting nervous.

Today I don't feel like doing anything

Except making Thai Green Curry and Scallion Pancakes. I swear this is going to work, guys. I'm going for a Chinese meet Thai dip your Scallion Pancakes in Green Curry kind of thing.

Originally I was going to attempt Indian food, but why spend money buying the ingredients when I could just hop over to Kebab Factory and get a scrumptious buffet lunch for 8 bucks? Yeah, thought so.

Anyway, pics to go up next entry. I love having my Tuesdays off.

A Super Cool Day

Hey Guys!

Life has been so busy lately. I spend a lot of time writing essays and doing MUN stuff. In between, I like to take cold showers because I think it keeps me healthy. I have been writing a lot of essays though. Currently, I am working on my essay for ethical reasoning. I don’t have many ethics to reason with, so it’s kind of challenging, but you know me, I LOVE the challenge!!!!!! I think Professor Puett will be really happy with my essay! He’s a lot cooler than John. He’s a fat hoe, dawg!

Today, I woke up at 9 AM. I was kinda tired and still pretty drunk from last night which was HELLA CRAZY! I went to go eat brunch with some of my MUN friends at this super cool condo. It was way awesome, you guys should’ve seen it! I think MUN is really cool and I am really happy that I am doing it even though I have to write lots of handbooks and stuff for them. My MUN friends and I have started our own UN. I’m China, obviously, and we ALWAYS settle things diplomatically. HIGH FIVES ALL AROUND YO!

After I ate, I went to Konlin’s rehearsal. He’s so cool *fangirl squeal* Today he had us drill parts of his choreo. I think we are making a lot of progress! Someday I hope to be as good in dancing as Konlin!

KAKOI!

Well, I have a lot of work to do now! Bye guys, until next time!

Peace, Love, and Cankersores

Strange

Walking through the yard this morning a man in front of me turned around (somewhat) and commented to the air above him "I like how your red matches your black. It's very haigh fashion" in a Bostonian accent.

"Thanks", I responded. We walked in tandem for another few seconds until he paused to let me pass and made a right.

Designspiration

I hate it when I find inspiration online but can't even begin to fathom how to replicate it. Sigh.

The other images were too big. This one's boss.

Heart for Deviantart.

Let me enumerate the ways this morning was not fun

1) Woke up at 7:30 to do work, ended up studying for midterm & sleeping at the same time
2) Dining hall had no more muffins by 10:07

3) My boots have holes at the bottom

4) It's raining (which would have been ok if it weren't for the above (3))

5) Did not go trainingsu

Since I don't have class on Tuesdays, Wednesdays are like Mondays all over again.

Before I hit the hay

Packed day tomorrow, ick. Hope I get out of it in one piece - I really don't look forward to tutorial. Global pop sounds awesome but the class is (un)structured such that I feel as though it is a 2 hour time-suck. Gross.

Today I had to make a haiku about myself. While I failed, my friend K came up with some:

they call me kat tang

i am like water untamed

harvard needs cute girls

kat tang is my name

an alcohol addition

is my game, homeslice

& finally

cash rules everything around

me, CREAM get da money, dolla

dolla billz y'all - kat tang

The people reading this application will probably think I'm a gangsta... which is exactly what I want them to think. Also, the last haiku doesn't even follow haiku convention. That's how subversive and awesome it is.

Side note - I (aka JM) installed CS5 and am no longer a newb :D ding!

Rolly Polly

Did too many somersaults at 8 am. Now suffering from what feels like the morning residuals of a (non-existant) pretty crazy Sunday night.

Food

I love reading about food, so I might as well write about it. How has food factored into my life lately, let me count the ways.

1. Recent discovery of love for vegetables. What happened to being a carnivorian?? But when your dhall's food sucks and there are vegetarian options out there (as in outside of the dhall) like grilled eggplants smothered in cheese and green curry, who needs meat?

2. Kind of related to the above post - so when one has a strong dislike for one's dhall food, what is one to do? Well! Try new things of course. And what better way to spice up a meal then to literally add tabasco sauce to it. Especially when it's Chipotle flavored. Except try not to mix up the Chipotle with the Habanero... and then realize your mistake only to then toss on a lot more Chipotle. I think I set my mouth on fire.

3. Cooking! This has been my only thing I've made, really. But it's a promising start. Seafood pancake & Korean tofu soup. Both delicious goodies. Next time I'll go for making Japanese food. Some Katsu curry, miso soup, and something else Japanese and delicious. Omnomnom.

4. Drink tasting (; Mnn Frangelico. This stuff is it. Hazlenut flavor for the win.

5. Finding new places to eat. I love exploring and discovering good food. Did you know there was a place by Burdicks called Hi-Rise Baking Company with scrumptious sandwiches? Well you do now. Yelp and I are bffs for life.
