So I caved and did a image google search on my name. Apparently, my internet notoriety is so low (thankfully), my sister's picture pops up instead of mine among the pictures of a much more successful (Dr.)Alice Kuo.

Just viewing tv as usual and this commercial comes up:
and the next thing I know, I'm trying to stop myself from crying. The intense cuteness is just too overwhelming. I still can't watch without swooning despite my brain explaining to me that it's all advertising manipulation in it's most transparent form. Still, show cute animals emoting and I'm sold.

Anxiety dream last night where I overslept and woke up on some island and realized that I needed to be at work but I was far far far away and no one reminded me because it was Columbus Day and they assumed that I had it off too.
Tammy sent me this:

Spent too much time yelling at the tv last night during Heroes. Candace got what she deserved and Peter needs to open the damn box. The new supporting cast has been subpar so far this season. Wes is whiney, Maya is whiney, and her brother is whiney. Plus, for three episode dedicated to them going on the run, her power sure does suck.
I'm unusually excited for Transformers on DVD. I enjoyed the movie, but for some reason, every time the commercials come up advertising that it's coming soon, I feel a wave of fanatacism and edgy anticipation- even more than when The Office Season 3 came out. Just a sucker for well done CG I guess.

While folding laundry Elda came across a thong:
Elda: What's this? This isn't underwear!
Nick: Oh it was. Natalie just farted so hard she blew out the rest of it.

General conversation, and somehow I find myself saying this:

Just got off the phone with my mom. The conversation:
Mom: Hi Alice. Kai (my cousin) just found a book of yours called C-U-N-T. Cunt. He was wondering if he could borrow it?
Me: Uh...sure. Tell him he could keep it. I didn't like it anyway.
Mom: Cool. I'll let him know that.
Ahh, the perks of having parents with English as a second language.

7:54 am - Simulation uploading
|
My three cousins are visiting from Taiwan so I treated them out to Amici's yesterday and got to witness each of them devour two extra-large slices of pizza and three pieces of lasagna EACH. My stomach hurt just watching them.
My Chinese is abysmal. I'm still getting used to the confused looks on their faces after each of my attempts to initiate a conversation. Things aren't looking so good when I can't communicate the one-syllable word for "meat".
Soo..guess it's time for boring general overview of what I've been up to.
1. Work: Still at Logic Devices in Sunnyvale. Still commuting at 6 am in the morning. Still don't know what the hell I'm doing. But that's okay - tapeout is on the horizon. Given up on efforts to not end up the butt of jokes. Accepted that it's the official lot in my life no matter where I go. Eh, keeps me grounded I guess.
2. Social Life: Consisting mainly of video games with Nick. Between the two of us, we have a PS3, Wii, Guitar Hero, Gamecube, and PS2 to keep us amused. Then there's the weekly drink and sit session with Alex, Kyle, and/or Ashley. Oh, and lots and lots of facebook and gmail with various non-Livermore folk.
3. Family: Mom bought a condo in Taiwan. Dad's still working, contemplating retirement soon. Amy's moved out with her newish boyfriend who reminds me of Rob.
4. Extra: Started working out. Not getting married. Not having kids. STill living at home with family. Tired most of the time.

6:32 am - Self Absorbed Post, oh yeah
|
So, if I thought perusing old lj entries wasn't proof enough that I really haven't changed, nothing like meeting up with my old childhood friend to further reiterate that I have been, still am, and probably always will be a bossy know-it-all. Though as a rebuttal, my personal spin machine WOULD like to pass it off as just being a "well-informed young lady exhibiting strong leadership qualities" - yeah, I know I'm just kidding myself. (Insert smug "Uh-huuuuh" expression).
Anyway, in addition to my awesome excellence, I've also realized my selective memory tends to reflect not so swimmingly upon me. For instance, was it really necessary for me to rehash my frustration of completing all the 5-minute math exams BEFORE Aaron Shojinaga even though HE got to go to 3rd grade math and I didn't? To quote Teresa: "YOU STILL REMEMBER THAT?!?!? That was 15 years ago!" Yah, I KNOW.
I've also realized, no matter where I move or go, I tend to find the friend that exhibits one of both of the following qualities:
1. Asian
2. Competitive with me for the top spot of some stupid, useless class/reading competition.
Not to say I actively go LOOKING for these qualities in every person I meet - for some reason, I find myself drawn to them or them to me. I don't know. I think the Asian thing might have to do with having better odds that their parents just MIGHT be as non-normal as my parents, and therefore, their child will be a bit more understanding when they meet the weird craziness of my household? Just pure speculation at this point.
My most prideful moment in my interaction with Teresa: her declaration that Nick and I remind her of a newly divorced couple. Bwahahaha - take that uncomfortable romantic smoopyness!
Edit: Out of boredom, I added anyone I was a friend of but wasn't friends with even though they haven't updated in XXX number of years - on the offchance they realize this and wondering why the sudden interest in their dated stuff. I realize the gesture is a bit late, but I figured better now than later. Yay for all my friends of being in bold now :)

10:47 am - Business Time ~Flight of the Conchords
|
So I'm not one to post lyrics all that much, but it's been a while since I chuckled out loud from a song on the radio:
Jeanie:
Ahh yeah, that’s right baby
Girl, tonight we're gonna make love
You know how I know baby?
Cuz its Wednesday, and Wednesday night is the night that we make love. Tuesday night is the night that we go and visit your mother, but
Wednesday night is the night that we make love.
Cuz everything is just right, conditions are perfect.
There's nothing good on TV, conditions are perfect.
You lean in close and say something sexy like:
"I might go to bed I've got work in the morning."
I know what you're trying to say baby.
You're tryin to say "Ooh yeah, it's business time, it's business time."
Chorus (Both)
It’s business, it's business time!
J:That’s what your trying to say, your trying to say lets get down to business its business time.
Its business its business time
Jemaine:
Thats what you're tryin to say, you're tryin to say lets get down to
business it's business time!
Jemaine:
Ooh, Next thing you know were in the bathroom brushing our teeth.
That's all part of it. That's foreplay.
Then you go sort out the recycling, that's not part of it but it's still
very important.
Then we're in the bedroom. You're wearing that ugly old baggy
t-shirt from that team building exercise you did for your old work,
and it's never looked better on you.
Mmmhh, team building exercise not tonight. Oh you don't know
what you're doing to me. I remove my jeans but trip over them
cuz i've still got my shoes on, but then I turn it into a sexy dance.
Next thing you know I'm down to just my socks and you know
when I'm down to just my socks what time it is. It's time for
business. It's business time.
Chorus (Both)
Its buisness, its business time
J:You know when I’m down to just my socks its time for business,
that’s why they call them business socks
Jemaine:
You know when I'm down to just my socks it's time for business
that's why they call it business socks
Chorus
Jemaine:
Ooh, makin love, makin love for two, makin love for two minutes.
When its with me you only need two minutes, cuz I’m so intense
Two minutes in heaven is better then one minute in heaven
You say something like “Is that it?”
I know what your trying to say, your trying to say “Ahh ya that’s it”
Then you tell me you want some more
Well im not surprised, But im quite sleepy.
Chorus (Both)
Its business, its business time
J: Business hours are over, baby
Its business, its business time.
current mood: amused

The mind boggles over $420.00 bottle of water.
http://www.blingh2o.com/store/index.php?cPath=21&osCsid=a6hc3gq2b39kmp10d9e61q0bg4
Description from the site:
Bling H2O is the inspiration of Kevin G. Boyd, Hollywood writer-producer. While working on various studio lots where image is of the utmost importance he noticed that you could tell a lot about a person by the bottled water they carried. In Hollywood it seemed as if people flaunted their bottled water like it was part of their presentation. Whether the bottles had a cool shape or came from an exotic island, none truly made that defining statement. Bligh H2O was fashioned to make that defining statement. Our mission is to offer a product with an exquisite face to match out exquisite taste. Our product is strategically positioned to target the expanding super-luxury consumer market. It's couture water that makes an announcement like a Rolls Royce Phantom... the "Cristal" of bottled water. Initially introduced to hand-selected athletes and actors, we are now excitedly expanding our availability. Bling H2O has been featured at many recent celebrity events including the MTV Video Music Awards and television's biggest event, The Emmys. Bling H2O is pop-culture in a bottle. But it's not for everyone, just those that Bling. So the question is: Do You Bling?

3:39 pm - Fortune Cookies
|
Today, my co-worker taught me the proper way to read a fortune cookie. Basically, after the saying, always make sure to include "in bed" at the end. I'm pretty sure this has been a relatively common practice among regular folk, but I couldn't help but be amused.
My fortune of the day: "Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow in bed"
Kinky.
