Holy Shit. This is really random..but I was reading through this whole livejournal from freshman year and I could'nt help but laugh at myself. It's insane. I'm a senior now and I'm about to graduate and looking at this, I realized I've changed so much from freshman to senior year. I don't play DDR anymore, I care about my grades, most of the friends that I talked about in this journal are not my friends anymore (like Posey), I've made new friends, I've picked up new hobbies, I don't do art much, I'm not into Paris Hilton, I take IB Biology 3 and I love it even though I made a D in it freshman year, I look much different, and I don't talk like that anymore. Looking back at my entries, I realize I sounded incredibly shallow and immature. It's all part of growing up though, right?
Nobody reads this anymore, but if you do, I want to know how you're doing and how you've changed in four years.
Well, I'm going to NC State University next year. I'm planning to major in Biology to become a pathologist. My art dreams are over it seems=/

today was pretty fast. i got an A on my spanish test! thats like the first A on a spanish test. woot. i want to take japanese real bad, but they dont offer it at our school. so thats gay. but then again, when would i ever use japanese? yesterday i got a packet to choose my classes and electives for next year..my mom really wants me to do IB, but i dont think i can survive in the IB program. i know it would look great on my college trancript, but i am barely even doing good in honors classes which is like 3rd lowest. anyways for my electives i wanted to do Art 1 so i can get into photography junior year, and spanish or french. im not sure yet though. ive taken spanish all my life, and chenging so sudden to french would be very difficult.
well yesterday i went down to take my potato out from the microwave. I left it in there for like long time..and it was on a peice of foil. When I touched the foil the first time, it wasnt hot, so I was like, I guess I dont need mits. So I pick it up & I hear the noise of the foil crinkling and i thought it was my hand sizzling off..so I fling the Potato across my kitchen. Then i looked and saw my hand wasnt burnt at all. oh yes im beyond awesome. ok have a great rest of the week lovelies!<33
PS- http://www.christahilda.com/ has the cutest dresses..my favorite one is candy pop. so adorable. OH, and get this, one size fits ALL. for 200 bucks, i think its worth it.

a post from a community i thought i'd share:
girls should be proud of their bodies with the support from society. the media should embrace the different shapes and sizes we come in. during my english language lesson while analysing the lexis and syntax of feature articles, i came across a feminist article which discussed the sad truth of teenage magazines in britain.
it mentioned magazines, such as "Bliss", contained advertisements for plastic surgery, tips for getting a size 2 body and celeb diets like jennifer aniston. although it does feature larger girls, it mentions their "unhappiness" being that size and how diets were life-changing.
in hong kong, it is no different. magazines are plagued with advertisements of skinny shapeless girls who apparently received a "life-changing" experience through losing weight. pale and boney, they look sickly in comparison to their before pictures.
plastic surgery is becoming commonplace now, girls at the age of twelve are already pleading their parents to get their nose shaped. my mother, as much as i love her, has always been mentioning how i should get a double eyelid. getting a new nose, lips and breasts is merely shopping in a supermarket of body parts.
to be honest, i always think about plastic surgery now. who doesn't want to look like that gorgeous girl everyone is jealous of? who doesn't want to have things the easy way? i hate how i change my looks when i daydream, taller cheekbones, upward tilting almond eyes and silky jet black hair. it's plastic surgery in my mind. the down-to-earth side of me screams out, "LISTEN GIRL! people should like you for who you are, not for how you look!"
pressure from society is shaping who i am in the inside. before i never longed to be a leggy long-haired girl, i ran from that image. now i'm insecure about my weight, body and looks. society is shaping me on the outside. i've unconciously been on diets, exercise marathons and makeup sprees.
we need mainstream magazines that feature realistic girls. girls of different shapes, sizes and race. how often do you see an asian girl (who is not mixed) featured on the cover of vogue. kelly hu, coco lee and other chinese celebreties are considered exotic or beautiful in the western view. models are all white, skinny and tall. there is a growing number of african-american models, plus size models. but where are the asian models and the petites?
do you ever want to change anything about yourself? if yes, what is it?
