2012 was ehh
I watched the first half of 2012 on Saturday because I finally got the chance. I originally planned on watching it in theatres, but waited too long so I missed that chance. Then I watched the second half on Sunday. I was disappointed because 2012's version of "the end of the world" story is sort of dumb and slow. I think I prefer watching movies that take place after the apocalypse, preferably with zombies make it more exciting and creepy. I'd rather watch "A Boy and His Dog" again. I don't get how 2012 is an apocalypse film when the waves wait for the characters to survive.

Tired
Haven't been going out that much for movies lately.. The last screening I attended was Going the Distance. It was an interesting film to watch, but the jokes are dirty/inappropriate. I miss movie screenings, but I also don't want to get home late. Resident Evil and The Town coming up. I hope I get to see both. If not, I'll pay for Resident Evil, but 3D is expensive. It's filmed in 3D, so it should be seen in 3D. If I can't see it in 3D, that's alright I guess. School's good, but just been tired. Although this semester is sort of better. A math test coming up. Gotta practice doing the problems! I've been feeling down and tired a bit. My math classmate actually felt the same way about math. She's been putting it off for many semesters, then decide to just take it. I guess I'm not the only one. Many people I talk to are taking math. We all suck at it.

Facebook - I don't have much use for it anymore, but I'm just going to leave it like that. I use it to enter contests and receive samples.

Facebook is ehhh...
I used to really like facebook back in the days, but it got more stupid each time. The things people post are really dumb. I just think, if you have something personal or feel like ranting, it should be done in a blog. I hardly ever update mines anymore. I only message my friends when we have something to share with each other or scheduling meet up. Before, I thought I really needed it or else I won't be able to keep in contact with some people, but now that doesn't matter to me anymore. I only liked my unique username.

Art & Rock Music
Some random thoughts came to my mind. I was thinking of the band I used to listen to called "Jack Off Jill." I liked some of their songs in their old 2000 album called "Clear Hearts Grey Flowers." The album cover is also very pretty. I didn't look up the artist name back then. It was Mark Ryden. The music sounded good to me when I was young. I wasn't listening to them at 10 years old. I guess I liked them at 13 or something. At the day of The Last Exorcism screening (Aug. 12), Mark Ryden came to San Francisco for signing, but I didn't go over there to get an autograph because my friend works there at the museum where he signed, so I saved her a seat at the theatre when she arrived. She gave me a picture with his autograph and a cute Abraham Lincoln pin. Both of us gained because I didn't have to go other there and miss the screening. She did me a favor, and also got to watch the early screening with me. I didn't realize that I had liked Mark Ryden's work for a decade. I always had a thing for artwork and rock music ever since I was young.

People I know say that listening to rock music, wearing band t-shirts, interest in dark things is a phase, but I'm still that way, so I don't think a phase can last for 6 years?

SF weather
Nothing new at all. I just need to get going on reading my textbooks. I haven't been reading or studying that much because I went to L.A. last week Wednesday and Thursday for 2 days. The hot weather in L.A. was exhausting. Got home pretty late at 1am on Thursday night. Woke up at 6:30am, and made it to school on time. Only 3 hours of sleep. Didn't get a real sleeping day until Sunday. Then there's the hot weather again the day before yesterday and yesterday. That explains why I'm a bit behind in reading, but I'll catch up as soon as I can. I just can't focus entirely if I'm exhausted because of the hot weather. I get very dizzy and can't comprehend whatever I'm reading. Today's weather was so much better. I can finally focus and get to reading again. Super silly reason for not reading, but hot weather is definitely my weakness. I can't do anything when it's hot. I sit in one place for 2 hours. Can't get up or think. But I better do tonight's homework because math teacher might pick on someone to give answers. If I didn't have my answers, I'd be screwed. haha

A positive mindset for the new school semester
Most people dread going to school, but I want to be positive and make it a bearable year this time because being negative doesn't help. That type of attitude makes it impossible to be happy every time school starts. The only time I get angry during school year is when I don't understand math. My goal is to pass this class, so I don't have to take it again. I plan on skipping my usual movie watching days because I need to focus on school more. No more slacking off. I put a limit to 1 movie per week so it doesn't get in the way of my studying time. I never study or do homework often, but I'm going to do it this semester. I need to be a better student and get better grades. I should focus on school more. This year is strictly studying and understanding the subjects, and next year I'll sit back, relax and enjoy myself. I'll watch all the movies I ever wanted to watch!

Kombucha Saved Me from Bedbugs!
Lately I've been gaining a lot of weight. At least 10 pounds because I let myself loose once again by eating unhealthy junk foods and I'm not on a real vegetarian diet because I eat whatever my mom cooks for me, not wanting to be difficult and annoy her. She was annoyed with me in the past for going on a vegan diet. She didn't really like the food I was eating. So that means I've been eating chicken for sometime. I don't like meat, but I eat it to make her happy. She said that I don't have a reason for not eating meat. I actually have a reason, but I would rather keep it to myself and not tell anyone. So yesterday morning, I bought a bottle of Kombucha because the health benefits includes appetite/weight control + other benefits. I put it in my bag because I was in a hurry to get to work on time, but when I was there on time, the owner wasn't there yet. I sat down, and took out my Kombucha drink and it spilled out from the seal because it was a carbonated drink, it started to spill out from the top even though I didn't open it yet. It already spilled in my bag. I took all my stuff out of my bag, and found over 6 bedbugs living in my bag! It was a nightmare for me because I've been bitten by bedbugs practically every night! I also noticed that my bag was a place for them to lay eggs. Later on, I called my mom and told her about what happened and she said to throw the bag away. I wasn't sad or reluctant even though I had my bag for over 7 years. It was time for it to go if bedbugs could live in there, that bag must be ancient too. Kombucha saved me! If it wasn't for the drink spilling in my bag, I would still get bitten by bedbugs until the end of this year! I've been searching for the problem anyway. They followed me to the theatre and bite me while I watch a movie. That's why I noticed that every screening I attend, my hands itch/hurt like crazy. I had my bag on my lap all the time.

Kombucha is going to be my favorite drink from now on. Every Saturday morning at work, I get bored and tend to find myself something unhealthy to eat. Sometimes I can't control myself because work is very boring and not a lot of customers come by. But I finally found the right alternative! Kombucha is what I want! A non-sugary/beneficial drink/tastes good and helps me to not crave sweets and carbs. I've been having trouble staying away from carbs because bread is my favorite snack. If I didn't have Kombucha, I'd be drinking Thai Iced Tea, which is made of tea and white sugar. Kombucha is only 30 calories. I'll probably have Kombucha once a week, since it's a pretty expensive drink. I don't have a lot of money so I can't drink it all the time. It's not that expensive, but for a student like me, I can't buy it all the time.
