Welcome to my personal journal! This is the place where you can know more about me. I'll share the things happen around me as well as my feelings here. You can email me if you have any feed back. Peace!
Friday, December 22, 2000Man, haven't update for so long! Feeling so bad about myself... hahaha... Merry Christmas everyone! Yeah... it's Christmas again, another year... I got tons of candies from some of my schoolmates today, some of them are wrapped nicely. Thank you everyone! You girls made me feel better after all the freaking schoolwork in the last 2 days before the break. And Esther, thanks for your cup! I really like it.
I went to the fellowship's Christmas party. I invited my friend Sammy to go with us. And yup, I'm the MC! There were so many people tonight, I'm so happy to see the new faces! I hope the new comers would come to our fellowship in the future. Vicky and I led 3 games and they're all pretty good! People enjoyed the games and we all had a good time! I think we could do better though, I should've spend more time to prepare the party with Vicky. Sometimes we're confused and don't know what to do! I wanna thank Doris for opening her house to us.
Well, I'm really happy that there're so many people to visit my website. But I wanna ask something... some of the people who signed my guestbook are people I really don't know. Ahhh... how do they know the website? I'm not that famous, ain't I? And people keep asking me who the only good-looking gal in my school is and all... well, you guys have eyes, that's all I'm gonna say.

First of all, I wanna talk about the fake messages some immoral people posted on the Formosa Club message board earlier this week. I just don't get it. There's a person using the name "Grace Hu" to post a "vote for me" message. That's not the problem... the problem is, the link of "Grace Hu's Official Website" at the bottom of the message is actually a link to this webpage. Yes, http://nav.to/darfansclub! Then there're a bunch of messages saying that I am the one who posted that message, plus some other messages saying things like "Darwin you're GAY," "Darwin is a motherfxxker," "I wanna suck Darwin's dxxk" and all. I was already pissed off when I saw the messages Sam Lee and Ray posted on my guestbook right after this website is launched. And now similar messages is posted on a school based "cultural club" website when I'm not even a member of the club! Freak, I guess I'm pretty popular now, people I've never met before like Candy and Joy all know about this "Gay Mother Fxxker" now. I don't know exactly who did all these crap to damage my reputation, and I don't think I've ever offend anybody in my school before. I just can't stand this kind of childish and immoral act. The club is a school function, it should be educational in some way rather than BS and personal attack. So I wrote a message to the forum to sort of complain about this. Ray apologized for what he posted on my guestbook and change the Formosa Club forum to a password protected forum so that no one can fake other people's name. Now I want the person who posted the "Grace Hu" message and all of those who personally attacked me on the forum to apologize to me and to the club itself. If something like this happens again, I'm gonna send a complaint to the club advisor and to the ASB. I'm not kidding! I wish this kinda stupid things wouldn't happen again and good luck to Formosa Club.
And now some good news... I got my license!! I took the driving test in San Pedro this morning. San Pedro is an easy place to test actually, you know, a small town like this wouldn't have much traffic in a weekday morning. So if you want a license so badly, I recommend you to take the test in San Pedro. Well, I admit that I got lucky today. My examiner is very, I mean very, lenient to me. I had to do parallel parking for only once, and he didn't even ask me to do a 3-point turn! Ever heard of that? The whole test lasted less than 15 minutes (really short...). After I parked, he said a whole lot on what I did wrong: too slow before turning, impeding the traffic, going out too soon when turning right on red... I thought I failed it because the "lecture" was so long. He counted my errors afterwards, I made 10 of those and it's passing (barely... I know that...)! I was relieved and all, you know, I'm 17 years and 112 days old, I need this thing. I think my "head-turning and eye-browsing skills" saved me today. When I was driving, I turned my head like crazy to check, or pretend to check, traffic from all directions. The examiner was delighted by that, and I went home with my new license. Afterwards I thought, with the way I drived today, I might have failed it if the examiner were a picky one.
Then after lunch I went to Cerritos College to get my grades because I need to report those to the UC's. Those idiots gave me two student numbers, I knew it! I forgot my student number when I was applying to this year's summer class. I asked my high school advisor (he's the one who help us to do the paperwork) if it's OK or not. He said it'd be fine because the SSN is there, the college would match up for me. But those idiotic figures at Cerritos College didn't do that and create another student number for me. So I went there today and ask for my grades and realized that I have two student numbers. It's not a big problem though, the guy fixed it right away. But this once again proves that administrative people in this nation are bunch of idiots!! About my grades, the only one I didn't know is the political science class I took in Fall 1999. I never had a chance to check my grade in that class until today. I was surprised to know that I got an A in that class. I ditched half of the lectures, and I didn't turn in any of the position papers. I still remember that I used less than 20 minutes to do the 50-question MC unit test, turning it in while others are still on like question #10, and still got an 86% on that one. However, the instructor did give us many extra credit opportunities, and he actually gave out all the questions he's gonna ask on the final during the last lecture! I'm sure I aced that one and therefore came away with an A.

Yesterday, when I was going home with my sis and cousin after lunch, we found out that we didn't have the key to get into the house! My parents were shopping in Torrence and we couldn't reach dad's cell phone for help. Then we decided... well, go out and have some fun! I wanna sing so badly at that time because I just got the score the the SAT I took in October... (You know what I mean rite?) So it is K time, my third time in 18 days, this time at 富豪. 3 people was not enough so we called Kelly, Tim, and Pat Lo but only Tim could go out with us. We sang over 60 songs there, were we crazy or what?!
I "K"ed 3 times at 3 different places recently. I went to 錢櫃 with two schoolmates (they told me not to tell anyone...) earlier in October, then went to K-100 last week. Both are sorry places to K!! Both of them don't have enough new songs, no computers (you have to be a stupid VIP to use the computers at 錢櫃, and K-100 just doesn't have one), and worst of all, you cannot store more than 20 songs in the list (both places use the same song list system)!!! I just don't know why the heck all my freaking Taiwanese schoolmates like to go to 錢櫃 when they go to K. 富豪 is the best compare to those two. It's much easier to search songs there and they've got quite a few new songs.The only problem is, it takes too long to wait for the next song to come, sometimes we had to wait for more than 3 minutes. Other than that, everything is pretty good there.
About the SAT's... I got the score from October, the only thing I'm gonna say is, it's lower than the one I took in April. Also, I took the SAT II at Valley Christian yesterday in the morning. I'm not very confident about it tho. Things were going strange... I filled my answers in the wrong section in the first test, and had just enough time to fix the problem. It was another guessing game in the Writing test, and I had trouble doing simple calculations at times during the math test. May be I was just too tired... Good thing I could go to K after the test to relax myself...
I finished all the testings and stuff, my scores and my GPA are set. Things are not in my control now. I'll apply to all the UC's except Riverside and Santa Cruz, hopefully I would be lucky enough to go to one of the better ones. I really really wanna go to UCLA, but I just don't feel like they would let me in. My grades and my test scores are not good enough... I'm clueless about my future, I don't know what would happen next. But I don't think I need to worry too much because I believe in Jesus Christ. I believe that God will provide everything for me. He'll prepare a path that is the best for me. My special request for everyone: pray for my future, OK?

What a day! Outing, K, then praise group... I truly thank God that it didn't rain and the outing was better that what I expected. There were a total of 8 people today. We arrived at the park at about 11, and walked around for a while because we hadn't decided where to go and what to do. Then we went to the picnic area and played some games. Nothing new, just some games we played before: 大聲公與細聲婆 and 糖黐豆. We had fun... It's really good to see Elaine, the new comer, got along with us so well. I think my cousin enjoyed the outing, too. So that's pretty good. After the games, we had lunch together. We had sandwiches and stuff, like the outings we had before. But there were so many bees flying around when we were eating! We had trouble to even grab the food or drink we want. That was terrible dude! After the picnic, we headed back to church.
The fun didn't end just yet. Because we had about 5 hours before the praise group practice and it's HAPPY HOUR, we decided to go to, well, "K" for a while. It was too bad my sis couldn't come because she needs to study (she's still studying...). Elaine went home cos she was going to homecoming in her school and Vicky had to play the piano for the children's choir. So five of us (Kelly, Tim, Sandy, cousin, and I) went to K-100. I waited for this for a long time. I think I has been 2 years since the last time I went to K with church friends. We sang a lot of songs and I nearly lost my voice after this. I was too into it. And we still had praise group practice at night!
We had practice at Karen's house and sang songs for Christmas and the 110th anniversary celebration in mid-November. That's a lot of songs and I think I'll not be able to talk tomorrow. I had so much fun today but I'm very tired right now. Good thing we have one more hour to use this weekend due to time change. Talk to you guys later.P.S. I would like to make an apology to Jane Tang for "the airplane I flied" this afternoon and having her wait for me for a hour at the mall. I have to admit that my time management was miserable. Sorry Jane, I'll treat you to the movies next time.

After 7 days of hard work, I finally finished this fans club website. I would like to thank Mr. [Q]'s assistance on October 21 to get me started. I've been planning to make a web page for a long time, so this is like a dream come true. I'm proud of myself!! I'm planning to post my journal entries here at least 3 times a week so that you guys can know more about my life. I hope I can make this website more beautiful. It would be really nice if you guys can sign my guestbook and give me some comments.
So how am I doing these days? I would say it has been pretty frustrating in the last few days. People from the Youth Group would probably know why. We planned to go to the corn maze in Van Nuys for our outing on November 4. But when I called the maze service 2 weeks ago, they said their "ESTIMATE" closing date is October 31 because the corn season is coming to a close. So we panic and shuffle the Youth Group schedule around to push our outing date one week earlier, on October 28, that's tomorrow. But then I called them again on Wednesday and they said the maze was closed on October 13. So I had to call Kelly and see where else we can go to. And after 2 days of talk, we decided to go to a park near downtown L.A. and play there. Freak, same old kind of outing. Then I had to call everyone to tell them about the change.
I tried to organize a special outing for everyone, but it didn't work out. I'm very upset about it. When I look back, I realized that this kind of things seems to happen to me all the time. Every time I try to do something really special for others, failure would come and play against me. I remember last year I tried to organize the Asian Modern Music Club in my school with Mr. [Q]. We found Steve, Kel, Soph, Esther, Sean, and Alan Huang to help out. We had 3 meetings and made pretty good plans. But guess what, it didn't work out because we couldn't find a teacher to be our club advisor. Those freaking teachers always talk about things like "help the community", "show leadership in order to be successful", and stupid things like that. But when I try to be a leader by organizing the club and need their support, they all pretend to be all busy and stuff and say "I can't do it." This proved that TEACHERS ARE NOT TRUSTABLE!!! I'm sick of this sorry school and I wanna get out of here. High School sucks!
