The Lonely Thrifter

It's SPRING BREAK! And I'm spending it by working at school :[ The school is deserted and my roommates are back at home. But it's okay. I like my alone time.

So here are some Exciting-Mundane Events that has happened to me during the break:

  • I thought I had mice in my kitchen because I kept hearing squeaking. I spent 20 mins digging through my cupboards and at the same time I was so scared one might get freaked out and jump on me. Turns out, it was my oven timer squeaking. 
  • My friend and I felt like being spontaneous. So we went to the recreational park at midnight to play with the swings, slides, and the monkey bars. Out of nowhere, the cops rolled in and flashed the light at us. My friend was freaked out and told me to hurry up and get in the car or else we might get a ticket. But the cops drove to the back and had a little talk with the guy playing basketball.
  • I was watching Young Victoria on Netflix, and then my new laptop that I have had for a month starts making this scary static noise under my keyboard. I looked it up on forums and people said that after that noise their hard drive failed. I freaked out so I went to the Genius bar at the Apple store. Turns out, there was just a piece of plastic caught in the cooling fan.
All of that scare deserves a great big:

During the break, I was able to do some shopping. Because I'm such a girl, I will show you some of the things I bought. I'm so proud of my thriftiness.

The First Day of Spring Break

Hurray! Spring break is finally here. Now I have some time to read some books. As of right now, I'm reading Snowflower and the Secret fan. I think I'm becoming a fan of Lisa See's book. I love books that have a lot of imagery and people suffering. Plus, I'm learning a lot about my heritage. After this I'm SO going to snuggle in bed and read :]


NO!! I RAN OUT OF PRETZELS!! CURSES!!1

I think this year's Spring break is going to be very productive, rather than lying in bed and feeling the hair grow out of my head like usual. Nope, I'm going to be up and about! Let's see what's in store for me.
  • Be a hostess for Fancy Dad's Association. All I have to do is look cute in a cheong sam and say hi to people.
  • Moritz is in LA from Germany! I can't wait to see him!
  • Go to ELAC to get my transcripts, with a little shopping on the side.
  • Do research and explore Chinatown for my Los Angeles geography paper.
  • Read for pleasure.
  • Go to the La Brea Tarpits
  • Hangout with Family
Here are some random pictures from my cellphone.

Weird looking cloud at the parking lot of Wal-Mart.

March 4(for) Education. Clever huh? Mellie taught me that.
