why am i the only one who doesn't get a say in my summer?
My parents are senseless. My mom wants to go back to Taiwan for a month and a half. "Why don't you want to go to Taiwan this summer?" she asks. Well mommy, to put it concisely... because I don't want to die!!! Okay, I guess that's an exaggeration. SARS isn't that horrible in Taiwan right now. But the possibility is there, and as long as my trip to Taiwan isn't essential, why should I take the risk??
So we had it all planned out. I stay until the beginning of July, when I go to Boston for my cousin Charlie's wedding and visit Limor and Peter. Then I go to Taiwan, stay until the beginning of August when I come home and go to TAF. It was all working out quite well... until TAF decides to set a fucking quarantine period, in which I have to be in the US at least 2 weeks before going to TAF. What the hell. So now what?? My mom refuses to just go to Taiwan for 2 weeks-- she finds it pointless. So she wants to make me go for a fucking month and a half. RAWRR!! I refuse!! You can't do that to me... it's not fair... =( I have to go to Boston.. you can't just tell me I'm going and make me all excited and then not let me go =( It should be against the law... inhumane... At least I want some time in the US with my friends-- something that I never get in the summer. Bah...
Someday I will try to take a more positive look at life... until then, power to the negativity! =D

does anyone realize it's the end of may?
Because the highest temperature this weekend was 65ยบ and I'm pretty sure that at the end of May, it's supposed to be a teensy bit warmer. Bah. But anyway, it was a cool weekend =) Friday, the movies, and walking around the strip mall by the theatre... We saw Bruce Almighty which is by the way a hilarious movie which you must all go see now =D Saturday, Woodfield with Alex and Emily... whee!! And Mrs. Carli took us to the Cheesecake Factory afterwards. And I did not end up broke!! Go me!!! Sunday, bumming around, enjoying non-Chinese-schoolness ::gloats:: Monday, went to Ulta and played =D got some cool stuff... went to Jewel to buy stuff for my sis to make dinner, ended up going out to eat anyway =P
Today I went to the BEACH!!!!! ::gasp:: It was niiiiiiiiiiice... except there were dead fish floating on the water so we kind of just stayed on the sand... it still smelled bad though =( Oh well, it was still the BEACH! Ahhh... I still have 2 weeks of school but it already feels like I'm on break. Did I mention how much more interesting life is when my sister is home? I wanna go see Matrix Reloaded!! Oh, and Finding Nemo when it comes out Friday =) My promotion dance is next Friday!! That's soooo close.. ahh! And my dad scheduled a freaking ortho appointment right after school on that day... ugh.
Anyway, I should go do my science homework-- observations for our big lab. We are sooo ridiculously behind =( sigh... 2 weeks of school left, yet they still manage to kill us...
