Putting in effort for something you truly want is...
once you finally figure out what you want.
Getting it is another story.
*fingers crossed
"I know we don't have anything in common but.."
That’s not true. It’s not true at all.
It was heartbreaking to hear that from someone I used to get along with so easily. That’s what the passage of time does. When I was a child, your home was my playground, I even “ran away” to find salvation in your stories and kindness once.
I’m sure we have some similarities. I’m sure we can always find something...
Bottled memories.
I came upon pictures of you and I from my first summer here. I had almost forgotten about it but once I saw it, everything came back. All I thought when I saw them were, “Wow. Being by your side, I didn’t look anything but happy.” I guess no matter how annoyed I am of you or how many times I say I give up on you, in the end, I still want you in my life.
The thing is, I have a goal. And I want to see how far I can go. What others...
Dear Coke Talk: On greatness and killing your ego. →

Dear Coquette,
How do I accept that I won’t ever be great or outstanding? I always thought I had talent, and maybe I’m not bad, but a great many people are far better. I can’t stop thinking this and it’s causing me great anxiety.
Kill your ego, because nothing you do will ever matter. That’s okay, though. It’s not just you. It’s all of us. It’s taken 100,000 years for our...

Reunion.
A night to remember :D
Didn't it make you a little bit happy?
On a Good Day.
I’m a little bit hemmed in A little bit isolated A little bit hopeful A little bit cold But I hold on, And I feel strong And I know that I can
Been talking to myself forever And how I wish I knew me better Still sitting on a shelf and never Never seen the sun shine brighter And it feels like me On a good day
Ahh this past week has been exceptionally great! Finally got all my grades...
WOOT! A wish of mine came true.
As short-term as it may be :D
Holiday lab parties.
First time I’ve ever been to a “company” holiday party but lucky me, I had two in one day! Today was filled with delicious food (especially the fruit cake&french desserts) and prize giveaways for lunch; wining and dining with some partly sober dancing in the evening.
For my floor’s event, I’ve never seen most of these people before. As Lauren said, this is the...
One of the things I hate most: People who don't...
Work your ass off to get where you want to go, asshole. Don’t use other people to get things done.
Dear Coke Talk: On the nice guy. →
dearcoketalk:
I’m “the nice guy” that is best friends with girls but never has sex with them. I had two girlfriends in high school for a month each and none since then. Every time I try to hook up with a girl she stops and leaves. I’m shy, so I have a hard time meeting girls. I know I’m my own worst enemy. I don’t drink and I don’t do drugs, and its hard to meet people at parties when they’re...

Don’t you ever forget that.
Time to go find someone to vent to.

Winter Break Goals

I've never been more disappointed.
I thought you would be able to understand.
What a mess.
There’s no reason to have a Plan B because it distracts from Plan A.

silver morning.
So I only got 2 hours of sleep last night since Anh and Chari visited. I’ve missed them so much! We went to Ami’s for dinner and caught up the rest of the night (:
I woke up before the sun did this early morning to go to my first Health Fair at Monterey Park for APHC! Honestly, I didn’t have much expectations for it since I was a floater instead of being stationed at BMI as I...

My heart's just not in it (anymore).
You are the most selfish person I've ever known.
All actions and words have a consequence, grow up and see what your’s are doing.
What you want might make you cry,
What you need might pass you by,
If you...

sweet disposition.
A moment, a love A dream aloud A kiss, a cry Our rights, our wrongs A moment, a love A dream aloud A moment, a love A dream aloud So stay there Because I’ll be coming over And while our blood’s still young It’s so young It runs And we won’t stop until it’s over Won’t stop to surrender
If there’s anything these last few weeks have taught me, it’s...
Heart in a box.
At some point, you gotta ask yourself what’s most important to you. Or what should be most important.
My god.
I can’t wait to sleep.
Approximately 9 more hours till hell week is over.
9 hours is such a short amount of time for what needs to be done.
BIOCHEM CRAMMING YEAHHH!
Behind all this, some great happiness is hiding.
