Failed Cookies
Filed in The Day Events, July 30, 2008, 11:05 amI like to bake. Unfortunately, I had no one to learn from because my mom doesn’t bake. My baking experience comes from watching the food network channel and acts of bravery in the kitchen. My best results are muffins and sugar cookies, but sometimes I want to make something special.
This recipe has failed me twice [...]
Pocky and Calbee
Filed in The Day Events, , 10:46 amI’m not an avid consumer of Pocky, as hard as that might be to believe. I’m not a pocky fan or one of those people that create a shrine for Pocky. I look at it realistically and think…
“well, it’s a biscuit stick dipped in frosting”
I think the last time I had Pocky was mm….5 years [...]
Killer…..QueeEEEEeeen!
Filed in Media, The Day Events, July 28, 2008, 7:09 pmThis song is pretty awesome. I thank my buddy Paco for introducing it to me. I know I like Queen, but I never really got around to listening to everything. I like the beginning of this song more than the end.
Originally my favorite line was “Well trained in alley cat”. But it turned out [...]
Disney Fairies Fun
Filed in The Day Events, uhh...random!, , 10:26 amI have discovered something wonderful to play with! It doesn’t last very long, but I was browsing through Disney auditions and I found one interesting one that I had never seen before. Apparently, the Disney Fairies concept is doing well with young girls and they are planning on casting for face characters. There is a [...]
Musical Awesomeness
Filed in Droolworthy, July 24, 2008, 3:59 pmI stumbled onto some musical awesomeness. I’m not even really sure how I got there, but that “related videos” section is something evil.
This is Tina Guo. She auditioned for some Grammy thingy…and plays the cello with such buttery ease that I’m totally engrossed. Well..I mean..it’s not just her…lots of great musicians exude that quality, but [...]
Beach again. It’s a record.
Filed in The Day Events, July 23, 2008, 9:57 amWow. I really feel like I’m a normal person living where I live now. Now that I’ve been there three times in the past..oh….month, the beach feels even closer than ever. But…I’m not sure I can still get over the sand bit.
I went last Sunday and we had all wanted to do a bonfire for [...]
Pokemon is a real word folks
Filed in uhh...random!, , 12:08 amI was typing up an essay-like statement of purpose and I typed the word “pokemon” (don’t ask why) and then I backspaced to change the e to an e with an accent over it, finished the word, pressed space…and……poof. Word automatically changed the word to start with a capital.
Yes, it’s true. A capital. Wow. We [...]
My cover on Coldplay’s Viva la Vida
Filed in The Day Events, uhh...random!, July 18, 2008, 1:08 pmI thought about this during the week when I had this on repeat over and over…
Would it be cool if I played the piano and the cello together? And listening to it, you can pretty easily pick out the notes. Then I set off to youtube to see if there were any parts…but I decided [...]
A happy mom
Filed in Droolworthy, The Day Events, July 14, 2008, 8:54 pmMy mother, the one who scoffs at me for dreaming about certain celebrities (“When I was your age, I liked some celebrities like Sean Connery, but I was never crazy about them with posters or anything”), is today, a giddy woman.
A discrete package was on our doorstep today and as I ran over and glanced [...]
New Sony notebooks
Filed in Droolworthy, The Day Events, , 10:56 amI was browsed to the sonystyle online store at night one day and this caught my eye.
At that time I couldn’t find any direct rumors about it, but in the next day engadget finally posted it (or I read it the next day) and posted the links to their past posts. It looks so pretty…
So [...]
