quickly, before i collapse. while wasting my time again not sleeping, i decided to visit my blog site and re-read my old entries from last year. what i discovered was that the way i use to write is very different from how my entries sound now. though they were very random, i feel that before, they were also interesting, entertaining, and overall more enjoyable to read in comparison to anything recent. (perhaps i'm the only one who's noticed this) i wrote about nothing and it was great. now, everything that i "publish" is just flowery sounding and well, blah...

randomness is so cool and completely underestimated. i miss it. ahh...two entries from the past:

After some more researching at the Reg after school, I was heading over to the C-shop to grab some coffee when I bumped into my MUN committee moderator! It was pretty cool since Michael had e-mailed me yesterday saying how we should meet up sometime on campus. So we went over to the C-shop to get some coffee..when I realized that I only had a dollar on me. It was pretty embarrassing ordering coffee, having it being made, and then frantically searching in your wallet for various metal coins. In the end, I could only afford this stale lump of a muffin. Needless to say, I ate all of it while we chatted about different Ethnic clubs on campus, college, and what-not. I find that the less and less I think about school, the more and more I find myself relaxing. I had the worst knot in my left shoulder today. Oh man, it hurt so much! I kept on massaging it and then cracking my neck and back to loosen myself up, the people sitting next to me in my classes kept on staring and giving me disgusted looks. The pain didn't go away till left the school buidling. Figures. I can't wait to get outta that joint! Alright well..I don't have much to say now but-uh, yeah..on to learning some more calculus.

* the Reg: Regenstein, dreaded hell hole of a library at the University of Chicago
* C-shop: The, well, C-shop. Trendy, cozy, coffee study place at the University of Chicago
* MUN: Model United Nations. Ultimate debate experience.
** I just realized talking about Ethinc clubs on campus, and college is, in a way, thinking about school...but for some reason..it wasn't forced. =)

Ah.. now where would I be without a mocha frappachino??? Who can resist this delicious blend of caramel swirls and ice cold coffee goodness?? *sigh* This is indeed, one of the best solutions for surviving sweltering hot wheather in the middle of April.
Yesterday, I was sitting at home looking out the window from my room at my neighbor's kids across the street. Apparently they had gotten their dirty lil' hands on a huge-ass trampoline that was surrounded by some sort of netting-like cage. So, there were these kids- it looked like five or six of them - jumping up and down..up and jump along with two large orange plastic balls in a cage. I was like, what the heck? I want to go frolic! ..yeah, it didn't help that my neighbor's dog was outside too..it was just sitting there not doing anything at all, though i think it turned its head from time to time..but yeah, that was about it.
