Waist deep in thought because when I think of you I don't feel so alone

The stars lean down to kiss you,
And I lie awake I miss you.
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere.
'Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly,
But I'll miss your arms around me.
I'd send a postcard to you dear,
'Cause I wish you were here.

I watch the night turn light blue.
But it's not the same without you,
Because it takes two to whisper quietly,
The silence isn't so bad,
Till I look at my hands and feel sad,
'Cause the spaces between my fingers
Are right where yours fit perfectly.

I'll find repose in new ways,
Though I haven't slept in two days,
'Cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone.
But drenched in Vanilla twilight,
I'll sit on the front porch all night,
Waist deep in thought because when I think of you.
I don't feel so alone.
I don't feel so alone.
I don't feel so alone.

As many times as I blink I'll think of you... tonight.
I'll think of you tonight.

When violet eyes get brighter,
And heavy wings grow lighter,
I'll taste the sky and feel alive again.
And I'll forget the world that I knew,
But I swear I won't forget you,
Oh if my voice could reach back through the past,
I'd whisper in your ear,
Oh darling I wish you were here...

What's Your Guilty Pleasure?

I accidently clicked 'Publish' after doing another Facebook quiz last night.
What I didn't know was that once I take a Facebook quiz and publish it onto my wall/newsfeeds, that it would send a request to everyone on my friends list to 'Compare results!!!'

And as if that's not enough, I even received a number of skeptical texts in the middle of the night.
One of a few:

(When people put it like that, it just makes me feel more awkward, like some creepy 70-year-old sex offender asking little boys what "candy i am?? :O")

Now everyone knows about my guilty pleasure...... Dernnit.

Please Do Not Feed the Birds...

The Garden, at Park Street (I swear we saw at least 10~15 weddings there):

Feeding the birds a bag of (delicious) veggie straws

... But after walking around for a few seconds we noticed something.

AWKWARD.

Knock You Down - Keri Hilson feat. Kanye and Chris Brown

Heh, not again
Ohh, this ain't supposed to happen to me

Keep rockin', and keep knockin'
Whether you Louis Vuitton it up or Reebokin'
You see the hate, that they're servin' on a platter
So what we gon' have, dessert or disaster?

I never thought I'd be in love like this
When I look at you my mind goes on a trip
Then you came in, and knocked me on my face
Feels like in I'm a race
But I already won first place

I never thought I'd fall for you as hard as I did (As hard as I did, yeah)
You got me thinkin' bout our life our house and kids, yeah
Every mornin' I look at you and smile'
Cause boy you came around and you knocked me down
Knocked me down

Sometimes love comes around
(Love comes around love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down (Knocks you down)
Sometimes love comes around(Love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down(Knocks you down)

I never thought I'd, hear myself say, ooh, ya'll gon' head
I think I'm gonna kick it wit my girl today, kick it wit my girl today
I used to be commander and chief
Of my pimp ship flyin' high, flyin' high
Til I met this pretty little missile that shot me out the sky (Oh shot me out the sky)

Hey, now I'm crashing, don't know how it happened
But I know it feels so damn good
Said if I could back, and make it happen faster
Don't you know I would baby if I could

Miss Independent, ohh, to the fullest, the load never too much
She helpin' me pull it
She shot the bullet that ended that life
I swear to you the pimp in me just died tonight

Girl sometimes love

Sometimes love comes around(Love comes around)
And it knocks you downJust get back up
When it knocks you down(Knocks you down)
Sometimes love comes around(Love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down(Knocks you down)

Tell me now can you make it past your Caspers
So we can finally fly off into NASA
You was always the cheerleader of my dreams that
Seem to only date the head of football teams
And I was the class clown that, always kept you laughin'
We, were never meant to be baby we just happen
So please, don't mess up the trick, hey young world I'm the new slick rick
They say I move too quick, but we can't let the moment pass us
Let the hourglass pass right into ashes
Let the wind blow the ash right before my glasses
So I wrote this love letter right before my classes

How could a goddess ask, someone that's only average
For advice, OMG, you listen to that bitch?
Whoa, it's me, baby this is tragic'
Cause we had it, we was magic
I was flyin', now I'm crashin'
This is bad, real bad, Michael Jackson
Now I'm mad, real mad, Joe Jackson

You should leave your boyfriend now, I'mma ask him

Say you gotta put the good with the bad, happy and the sad
So will u bring a better future than I had in the past
Oh Cause, I don't wanna make the same mistakes I did
I don't wanna fall back on my face again
Whoa, whoa, I'll admit it, I was scared to answer love's call
Whoa, whoa, and if it hits better make it worth the fall(When it comes around)

Sometimes love comes around(Love comes around)
And it knocks you downJust get back up
When it knocks you down(Knocks you down)
Sometimes love comes around(Love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down(Knocks you down)

Won't see it coming when it happens, hey
But when it happens you're gonna feel it, let me tell you now
You see when love knocks you down
Won't see it coming when it happens
But when it happens you're gonna feel it, let me tell you now
You see when love knocks you down

Verizon Store Shannanigans

"WHOA..! Is that like one of those really old retro cell phones?" *puts it up to ear* "Hallo?"

How Did He Know...

No tax in New Hampshire, right?
My mother took advantage of that last Thursday when she needed to buy 'comfortable work shoes' because apparently the shoes she had for work so far have always been 'uncomfortable extremely feminine formal work shoes'.

Why a Thursday you ask?
Because it actually takes but 40 minutes to drive up there without all the hustle and bustle of weekend vacation traffic.

Han: Hey I'm at the library. Where are you?
Me: My mom wants to go get formal shoes today. Fml. Tomorrow I guess... Tae kwon do today?
Han:Wow. You say that now?
Me: I said it was either that or Friday and I'd call an hour before, you nut.
Han: This is an hour before?
Me:That means I'll call if I go because they day depended! Err. How long are you there for?
Han: Till like three. Or four.
Me: Ok. I might come in a bit!
Han: For how long...
Me: Aparently... My mom is why I haven't seen ANYONE this summer. Ughh I don't want to go to a stupid mall in New HAMPSHIRE.
Han: You're going to a mall in New Hampshire? Why New Hampshire? Why not Natick or Burlington?
Me: It's my mother. Dx
Han: Gdammit. Tomorrow you're probably going to go shop for ham in Canada.

Me: How the hell did you know...

WARNING: NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART.

[msn conversation - WARNING: NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART.]

The Mister: i thought about you so much today
The Mister: i was eating in a store then i was gonna buy strawberry bubble tea
The Mister: but then i missed u so much
The Mister: that i bought taro
The Mister: LOL

OOF! As so obviously demonstrated in this oh-so seemingly "innocent" msn conversation, that MAY appear to have started off in it's usually syrupy and sweet nature, may very well turn the path to an INTENSE FLAMING LOVEFEST STEAMING WITH PASSION AND TEENAGE[-LIKE] HORMONES in the bat of an eye.

Yeesh... Love Can Make Us Do Some CRAZY Ass Things. So watch out for this 'love'... I've heard the world can be full of it.

The Hills Are Alive With the Smell of Kimchi

I HAVE KIMCHI.

IN MY EYE.

... I like to think of this as one of those things that every Korean should say at once in their life.

I can now die a true Korean.

Guaranteed Butt Cramp

Spent an afternoon at Starbucks earlier this summer with Melissa posing for her painting. :)
It was coming out pretty (really) well the last time I saw it - apparently it's not quite finished yet, but I'm excited (psyched.) to see it when it's done. :D



This snap shot was taken so she could finish the painting after we had to leave.



You probably wouldn't be able to tell in this, but we had to do a little furniture rearanging... As well as a teensy bit of redecorating... The Starbucks employees weren't too happy... (e.g., pulling the couches away from the wall and turning them inward in the center of the room, laying all our bags, jackets, Melissa's art pads, our food, paints, water cup, paintbrushes, etc. surrounding us all over the floor and table... Hoping you get the jist. Hahaha~)

Can't wait to see it! :D

Street Performing

Saturday August 15, 2oo9

My whole day, as usual on a Saturday, was spent in Boston
I was with Thi, Andrew, and Khang (of Fisherz Crew - FTWFTWFTW!) and Snap Boogie that day in Boston when they decided to do a bit of street performing before going to YMCA for bboy practice. :)

Someone in the audience recorded part of one of the shows - and Snap happened to find it, so check it out, check it out!

(That's me being awkward in the back. But seriously, after like 5 shows, one does get a LEEEETTLE bored but it really was great!)

Relationship Flunk.

(This post doesn't have to do with me failing at "BF/GF" relationships. Sorry to disappoint. D:)

When I found out about the family feature on Facebook where you can list people as your family members, ranging from mother and father to son and daughter, we (meaning I..) went a little crazy.
A few times I was asked questions like:
Kevin: "Why am I listed as your sister..? Shouldn't I be the brother?"

To which I replied:
Sarah: "...*awkward*... It's... whimsical..."

This particular story begins when for my birthday, my friend Ramya couldn't post a 'Happy Birthday' without sending me a gift. Seeing the only free gift was an "I Love You, Dad" card, and a 'Happy Birthday Dad! :D' on my wall.
Thinking it was some brilliant plan along I found it ridiculously funny (so much more than I probably should have... :O shhh!) and listed her as my son on facebook for the whole world to see.
A few days later under some circumstance, I decided to be 'whimsical' again (no comment.) listed Allison as my daughter and a few hours later, Ramya followed in suit, except listing Allison as her SON.
And well, here's pretty much the rest of the dialogue (took these pictures with my handy dandy camra) :

(apologies - I did not realize the mouse was smack-dab in the middle when I hurriedly took these.)

I find this whole 'Internet' thing pretty freaking fabulous.

I love the Internet.

Cutting Hair.

This is me being melodramatic with my webcam... =_=;;

But yes. The title is correct, I cut my hair, again (as usual... I do all the time actually..;;). But this time, I cut my bangs straight. (Going Pipi Longstockings and wearing them in braids. :))
I tried not to cut them shorter and right now they hang above my eyes.
I wanted it to flexibly be able to be worn straight and swept a bit to the side. So far so good. :)

Half the summer's over already?!

Half the summer's over already?!

Hey... Come Here Often?

Hey there short, asian, and handsome... Come here often?

(My little brother, Kwan and Kevin)

*cough* SKEEEETCH *cough*

Let's Run Away and Be Carnies Together...

Disclaimer: I am not streaking. ... Not in this one, I swear.

Git cho GAME faces on. Yeeee son!

This is how it's been since preschool...

My friends would go home and tell their parents:
"Sighh... Mom, Sarah was being weird again today..."
"No honey, Sarah's just a little... special, is all."

NOT. I happen to be freaking POPULAR.
That's right Bizznatches.
Read it and weep:

As you can see I don't just HAVE friends. I'm SURROUNDED by friends.
...
Ok... So maybe none of them knew I snuck my way into the middle and sat behind them while I asked my best friend *cough*mother*cough* to take a picture... So WHAT.
Mother happens to love me very very much. ; _ ;

More Carnie Pictures

After going on the Zipper (TWICE might I add) - let's just say I was a little disoriented.
"Hey Sarah, If you're going to throw up, could you throw up in the clown's mouth over there for me? PLEASE? You just have to stick your head in there and..!"
5 minutes of pleading later...
"Uhh... Wtheo..."












SHOW OFF.


















He was so excited when he found out he was tall enough! I'm so happy for him! ... What, you think I'm joking?












That guy kept trying to force us to play that stupid carnie game...
Jess finally gave in: "Uhh... Okay... *takes out wallet*"
We ran away while the guy's back was turned.













BIG FINALE.
(But to be honest, Boston fireworks were better (the next day) no offense... STAY TUNED... TO BE CONTINUED. )

Oompaloompas

The adorable oompaloompas I tutored. :)

The girl's name is Michelle and the boy's name is Jungwoo.

They're moving back to Korea this week (I'll be seeing them last on Tuesday ); ) so I thought I'd make this little tribute...

They're coming back in a few years, so let's see how much they grow up when I see them next then. :) (Sigh. Now this is what I call a bittersweet farewell.)

Hair Thingies.

Right Side, Left Side (tilt)

(^above: Tied it up messy in 5 seconds flat.)


I got this extremely cute hair band from E.L.T. a couple weeks ago on one of my rare Allston trips. I felt the urge to show it off this morning because I have pretty much been living in it:
