I am bored and need to kill another 45 minutes at work, and I've run out of things to do and look at on the interweb, so I might as well blog.I have nothing to say.For Christmas, I received all 5 seasons of Alias. They came in the Rambaldi cube! It is quite awesome, especially because I never saw the first couple episodes, and there's a big chunk of season 4 that I missed because of dang orgo lab

Have you ever heard a song that has a really great tune and you thought it was a light and innocent song...until you actually paid attention to the lyrics? So I've been listening to Regina Spektor's "Hotel Song" a lot lately. It's such a cute-sounding song, and I've just been bopping along to it when I hear it. What's not to love? The fun tune, the background "ah-ha-ha"s, lines about orca whales

I'm blogging while I'm at work! That's right, folks, I live dangerously.In other news, should I just let this site breathe its final breaths and just die peacefully, or continue to revive it out of its coma every several months, only to kill it slowly with neglect again? I don't even write anything of substance anymore...or ever have.

You know what I hate? When you're wearing socks, and you get one sock wet by, say, stepping onto a bath mat you didn't know was wet, so you're left with one wet sock and one dry sock. So then you have to decide whether to A.) stick it out and just keep wearing the wet sock until it dries, or B.) take off the wet sock and put on another dry sock. But B.) then creates another problem because then

My favorite part of going to Costco is eating all the free food samples. I went with my mom on Saturday, and it was around noon, which means all kinds of culinary delight. If you've never been to Costco, they have all these carts with samples of whatever they feel like displaying, manned by employees in hair nets who prepare the food (i.e. microwave if necessary, put in the little paper cups,

I just wanted to share something I encountered during my mcrap studies. I was doing a practice test the other day, and there was a biology passage that made me laugh so hard, mainly because the mcat is the least funny thing around. The only things that are less humorous than the mcat would be maybe kittens and puppies dying, or slow torture performed by a sadisticpsychodentist, or the show "Joey.

One of my roommates has a bag of this foodstuff called "Bagel Crisps." They are basically thin slices of toasted bagels, and they are quite delicious. The bag boasts that the Bagel Crisps are now "Tender and Lighter!" I thought that was kind of interesting, because are the makers of Bagel Crisps saying that their product is now more Bagel Crisp than it was before? Yes, they used to be tender and

The other day (it might have been yesterday, actually; i don't know, my days are so freakin long) on the sign-in/swipe desk downstairs there was a big shoebox decorated with colorful paper and stickers. There was a hole cut out in the end of the box and a cheerful sign commanded people to "Reach in to get a treat!" I for one am wary of such ambiguous 'treats.'

From Danielle's xanga: 1. Grab the nearest book. 2. Open the book to page 123. 3. Find the fifth sentence. 4. Post the text of the sentence in your own bulletin...along with these instructions. 5.

So I watched the finale of "The Apprentice" last night, and it was one of those things where I knew it was a complete waste of time and I should just turn it off, but I couldn't, out of a combination of morbid curiosity and sheer horror. For one thing, it was waaaay too long. Usually just one hour of Donald Trump talking about how his buildings are "fabulous" and "the largest" and "classiest,

Bye John Ashcroft!! =) yayeee but... Bye Colin Powell. =( I wonder if he would still run for president in 2008 (not that he was planning to). You know how people do those fantasy football/basketball teams? Well my fantasy 2008 election would be: Republican: Colin Powell/John McCain Democratic: Hilary Clinton/Al Gore (i feel bad for the guy) or John Kerry When I told Shayna how sad I am that

Okay, I know this is a week late, but I'm not making any progress on my Latin homework. Hence, I will add my thoughts about last week's election to the whole heap. Being at GW, it is definitely not cool or "in" to have voted for Bush. My English class last week was even cancelled so everyone could go home and watch Kerry's concession speech. And you know what? I learned a lot this past week. I

Ah, home was great. I went to Philadelphia, ate Philly cheesesteaks, enjoyed time with my family and Smeagol, slept a whole lot, and mailed my absentee ballot. =) I didn't get my ballot until the end of last week and didn't have time to fill it out, and then I was going home anyway and I had to mail it to the town next to mine, so it wouldn't make sense to mail it from DC, where it would probably

i think i've fallen down more times this semester so far than i have in all of my life. i think it's because my dorm/apartment is so darn large... =) i took quite a spill yesterday in the kitchen. so we were playing with kim's tap shoes, and at one point i only had one of them on, and i was stomping around on one foot, dosey-doeing and yelling "hee-haw"...and then bam. they all laughed at me, but

Ok time to blog...so China was awesome. It was a great experience going back and seeing all the changes and the people. It was my mom, sister, and me, and we stayed in this apartment that my lao ye (grandpa, mom's dad) owned. It was a pretty big place, and my aunt was there most of the time helping us out. Showering was pretty interesting, as we had to stand in a large bucket and then pour the

Happy Easter! What a joyous day. =) This morning Danielle and I went to the sunrise service that's held every year at the Lincoln Memorial...it was pretty cool. We woke up at 5 am (!) and the service started at around 6:30 am. It was awesome to be worshipping with so many other people...the steps of the memorial were filled as well as the whole area between it and the reflecting pool. Then I came

today was purty cool... i saw john kerry and howard dean. they had this big rally in kogan plaza at gw, and it was a big deal because dean officially endorsed kerry. they gave out tickets yesterday, and the line was crazy long but i got me a ticket, and i didn't even have to go at the crack of dawn like some of the politically obsessed psychos around here. hehe...and at the rally i was really

yesterday i went to upenn, because my mom had a job interview there and we were going to go straight to my grandma's afterwards. so while she had her interview i wandered around the upenn campus. i fit right in, as the campus was swarming with asian folk. after walking around for a while pretending to be a student, i met up with my girl allisoooon. =) yay i love the snot cow! she showed me around

But contrary to popular belief, you don't hafta be Chinese to blog. You can be Japanese or Korean too. So, here I

thank you for blogging, miss. =) maap was great. now it is over. well it's been done for over a week. pennsylvania is alright. yesterday i drove really far to get to the nearest bookstore. and it was border's, which is not as good as barnes and noble. it's definitely not as convenient as living in new jersey. whilst driving so far yesterday, i realized that i am a right lane driver. i drove

i borrowed the changing lanes dvd from my cousin a while ago, i watched half and couldn't finish so was planning on finishing another day. except i either 1. lost the dvd or 2. left it at willie's house and he lost it. but in any case, i didn't finish watching it. how sad. zi, i miss you=( come back soon!!

2003-07-13T17:00:00.000-04:00

i watched "changing lanes" last night and i must say it's one of the best movies i've seen lately. i really like how there wasn't a clear cut protaganist or antagonist. both ben affleck and samuel l. jackson's characters were flawed, but also possessed some good. it also made me think and had a pretty strong moral message. yeah, ben affleck's character, gavin, left the scene of the accident,

we moved this past weekend. it was very tiring and pretty sad. i'll miss my house in marlboro. it's a good house, full of wonders and memories. we now live in west grove, pennsylvania, an area high in mushroom farms and low in light pollution. i swear, there isn't a street light in a 10 mile radius. hoodlums, hooligans, and other types of riffraff could easily hide in the darkness and then

2003-06-26T18:33:00.000-04:00

imma going home tomorrow!! hooray!! we are moving on saturday, and last night after talking on the phone with my mom, i realized that it was so stupid that i was here instead of going home for the weekend to move and stuff. so i decided to go home this weekend. i'll get to see my house one last time! that's all i have to say about that.

2003-06-25T15:31:00.000-04:00

hello from virginia! i've been here at UVA since thursday, and it's pretty cool. it took all day thursday to get here. my roommates are awesome, and we've been kept busy. yesterday we had orientation and tours of the hospital and med school. guess what the first thing i saw on my tour was- dead bodies!! it was weird. i wasn't expecting to see that. it was in the med students' gross anatomy lab,

2003-06-01T17:25:00.000-04:00

yay, shayna came down a few days ago. she got here on thursday, and we went to great adventure on friday. it was a lot of fun, especially since the weather was finally really great. the superman ride was pretty good. it's really scary at first, because you feel like you could fall out any second, but after the first drop it's alright. the only bad thing was much too many scantily clad 13-year old

2003-05-26T16:57:00.000-04:00

oh man, i just realized the other day that i only have 1 and a half weeks left in this house in marlboro. i go to uva june 5th and come back around july 18th, and my family will be moving during that time. so when i come back, it will be to our new house in pennsylvania. it's pretty sad for me...i really love this house. and also it will be sad to move. i guess i'll have to just enjoy the next

2003-05-22T22:27:00.000-04:00

i'm back home, and it's nice. missouri was awesome! who knew, eh? jiao's apartment is amazing. and it was awesome to go see her broadcasting news at the studio live. she's not nervous at all being on tv, it's just natural for her, which was really cool. i got a really good impression of mizzou. for one thing, everyone has tons of school spirit. columbia is a college town, so everything revolves

2003-05-03T17:52:00.000-04:00

ok, i'm in the blogging mood, and i'm procrastinating, so get ready for a good read! or probably not. *these past 2 weeks back have been pretty trying, mainly academically, keeping up with everything. some nights i've gone to bed dreading the next day, get my 3 hours or so of sleep, and wake up wanting the day to be over. but it's so weird, each day ends up being different than i've expected. i

2003-03-11T17:04:00.000-05:00

oh man...these past 2 weeks have been insanely horrible. i didn't get more than 3 hours of sleep a night, and last friday i crashed. i finally got 6 hours' sleep thursday night, then took a nap friday afternoon 4-7, then went to bed at 12:30 and woke up at noon saturday. and now it's another week. =P got 2.5 hours sleep last night. but that's it for this week, hopefully. all i have left is bio

it snowed. a lot. 4 day weekend! we had Presidents' Day off, because, you know. and then snow day yesterday. our second snow day. a lot of money...gone. i'm sure some somebody in the student newspaper of whatever will cleverly calculate it. my weekend was stupid. i studied all the live long day (do people still say that anymore?) every day for my physics exam today. i was a boring hermit. won't

today i spent 8 meal points on candy. CANDY!!!! i had the hugest urge to buy candy. i've never been crazy enough about candy to actually buy it myself, and it was the first time i spent meal points on candy.

i know i must seem like a hypocrite because i just wrote that whole thing about venting on a blog a few days ago. but if i was really mad about something, i would most likely say something to the person. i was in a bad mood last night, and i was more annoyed than really angry. and it's nothing specific...so. this makes no sense.

2003-02-09T23:24:00.000-05:00

arrrgh...blah blah blah. it is sunday night and i am trying to get work done...but i'm in a pretty bad mood, so i'm not very relaxed. i dunno, this evening, i just started getting bothered by things people say. i think it started when i got really annoyed at my roommate for never taking out the trash...everytime i take out the trash that's filled to the top and sometimes smelly, i get mad at

2003-02-04T10:25:00.000-05:00

i pulled my first ever all-nighter last night. i think it just officially ended. it was rough. i burned the midnight oil. i've been awake since 8:37 yesterday morning. my eyes are tired. staying up all night is kind of rough. it gets lonely and sad and the room turns colder around 4 am. or 2. i did physics web homework until about 3, then finished reading Galileo and started my short paper for it

2003-01-31T00:54:00.000-05:00

today i ate sushi. salmon rolls. mmmm....so good!!! i never thought i would like sushi. i always thought the whole concept was pretty gross. i tried it for the first time over break at a chinese buffet with my mom. she really likes that stuff, so i tried it, and it wasn't that great. then last thursday danielle had salmon rolls and offered some to me. so i ate one and it was amazing...so i ate

i read the best short story today. it was for creative writing. it's called "the enormous radio" by john cheever. it is good. there was a time when i wrote more meaningful and slightly more complex sentences. oh, to be young again. i think i'm going to switch to blog-city.com. i've had this blog for a long time and it's changed so many times. other people used to blog on it and stuff, and i

2003-01-28T10:30:00.000-05:00

methinks i will change the template really soon. i dunno, i just love changing the template. it'll be a big hassle though. the one i have right now is starting to give me a headache. i've been sick this whole weekend, and i'm still sick. blah. i have roommates for next year! and they are the best, and we are going to have an awesome dorm!! it's basically an apartment. hopefully we'll get munson

ok, i finally saw LOTR on monday. it was goooood man! i liked it a lot. i think it's better than the first one, partly because there weren't any "jump" scary moments, like the horrible bilbo "give me the ring!" terror in the first movie. i loved the battle at the end with the 10,000 orcs. felt like standing up and cheering for them. i also enjoyed the revenge of the giant trees. it was pretty

this morning at church i said, "hi derek!" and derek pointed at me and started laughing and said, "your blog is so messed up!" =P it's weird that i have a comments thing on this now, because there used to be other people here. oh well. maybe i should stop talking about the blog and comments and stuff in my blog entries. in other news, i have pictures up! yay! check them out, the link is on the

2003-01-02T13:17:00.000-05:00

ok, i think i fixed the screwy comments thing, but in doing so sacrificed 3 comments. i'll summarize them: derek commented, then commented on how my comments thing is broken and stupid, and then phyllis said "bah! take that derek." thanks guys. :) hopefully it works now.

2003-01-01T21:46:00.000-05:00

since even though i've had this blog since october 2001 and have yet to decide if it is a "list the things i do everyday" or "talk about my feelings" blog, i'll kind of discuss my winter break so far. it has been fun!! i definitely think about this blog too much because a lot of times when something cool or funny or whatever happens, i think "oh i should blog about this." anyways, some things

yahoo! I AM DONE WITH FINALS!! all done with fall semester...craziness. i'm going home today! 5:30 train. my finals were ok, latin this morning was pretty easy, prosem and calc yesterday were a bit trickier. what am i talking about a bit...calc was insane!! one would think he would make it a relatively long exam considering all we've covered over the semester, but nope, 6 questions!! it was

wow.....shane never ceases to amaze me. harvard, man. =) harvard man! i'm definitely not surprised, but in total awe of his amazing-ness. shane is the smartest person i know, and deserves it totally, because he is the epitome of genius, but is so humble at the same time. i know very few people who are as humble as him...and funny! i'm so inspired by him, ever since i met him. i want to work

guess who's done with english forever? it's me! =D actually, i became done with english on monday, but now's a good time to blog about it too. handed in my english paper, and no more english for me!! it's kind of weird, because like math, english has been one class i've had to take every single year since we learned how to read. symbolism, alliteration, cliff's notes, allusion, plays, poetry,

2002-12-08T22:55:00.000-05:00

ok, so i was not destroyed. maybe i was being overdramatic...but it was a tough week, and now it's mostly over. one last hurdle, and that's my bio exam tomorrow!!! ahhh!!! =O wasted too much of my youth this weekend writing my crummy english paper. finished just in time for "alias" tonight though. =D studied hard for my bio exam...please please God let me do well... it snowed on thursday!!!!

2002-11-30T17:49:00.000-05:00

i am home!! =) got home on wednesday night...i had the most ghetto trip home. took the greyhound bus, and 20 minutes after we left it broke down. then the driver got it to start, and we were turning around to go back to dc, and it broke down again. so we had to get off and get on another bus that was headed to philly. there was so much traffic, it took about 5 hours to get to delaware. my dad

best site EVER: guster dot com. they are so cool, so funny. they have the best studio and road logs. i wish i could have a road log. maybe i'll go on tour, just so i can have a road log. then i would try to make it a good road log, but it could never be as amusing as guster's.

2002-11-24T15:40:00.000-05:00

just woke up from a 2 hour nap...all i can think about is going back to sleep. but i can't. must get work done. my head hurts, the kind of headache you wake up with when half your brain is still asleep. i stumbled out of bed, rinsed off my face and gurgled water (both of which helped unstick my lips, which were sealed shut with drool..."ewwww!!!!" mwahahahaha ; ) and eagerly checked to see if

2002-11-21T17:49:00.000-05:00

one week! things i miss about home, and can't wait to see/eat (most of them under "see"): -family -hershey -friends -my bed -my house -my car/DRIVING -mccc youth fellowship -GOOD FOOD (especially thanksgiving FEAST!) O, new jersey how i miss you! wow, i feel really homesick right now. looking at this list, it's pretty short, but those are the things i truly miss and looking forward to. God

so this googlism thing is nifty. thanks, derek for finding this awesome, awesome thing. =D there were no results for my full first name, but here are some for me: zi is the best zi is called old master q zi is a great fighter zi is located on chromosome 5 zi is dedicated to furthering the development of intelligent interface solutions across a variety of platforms zi is an innocent country

last year they said it was the last time in like 800 years the leonid meteor shower would be visible to the naked eye. so last year i felt so special that i got to see it, and my ma was with me. but then it was visible again last night/this morning? hmmm. =) i'm so poopin excited to go home...bought my greyhound ticket last night. i'm taking the bus to delaware, then my dad's going to pick me

2002-11-16T18:25:00.000-05:00

i like this template...i think i'll keep it for a while.

2002-11-13T19:52:00.000-05:00

yay, the package came today!! i'm so happy. it's postmarked october 16th. =P apparently the mail is really slow in dc because they have to check packages...i don't really know what they mean by that. it sounds like censorship. i can't wait to get a chance to watch the movie. hehe, on the package my mom wrote my name and then "geoger w. unv." funny. =) i went to the gym today ("so, which way is

2002-11-10T14:07:00.000-05:00

you better lose yourself in the music, the moment/you own it, you better never let it go 8 mile....good movie. hm, the more i think about it, the better it is. it was really inspiring- i never thought i could be inspired my eminem. hehe. i thought overall the movie was really well made, and the ending is awesome. it's definitely the best movie about a singer who plays a singer. some parts of it

2002-11-06T16:57:00.000-05:00

handed in my english paper today, so i am officially done with midterms. =) but i'm really freaking out about getting the bio exam grade on friday. it's absolutely necessary that i do well. i studied really hard for it, and i felt like i knew it, but it's all up in the air right now. they're giving back our grades in lab, so some people already got their grades. i heard the average is a C...which

2002-11-05T16:41:00.000-05:00

you know what's weird? i'm in the middle of washington, dc right? capital of america. today is election day. the vast majority of people here can vote. so how come we don't get a day off too? elementary school and high school kids, the vast majority of whom cannot vote, up in the suburbs get a day off. i know they do that because they need to set up polling places in schools and whatnot, but i

2002-11-04T18:41:00.000-05:00

i really should be working on my seminar report right now. hence, i downloaded five songs and changed my blog template. and there was a dave matthews block on mtv2. aish...it's going to be a long night.

2002-11-03T13:57:00.000-05:00

i saw michael jordan yesterday!! danielle got free tickets to the wizards-nets game last night, and it was sooooo cool. we cheered on the wizards, of course. sorry, new jersey. it was so awesome and fun. i've never been to a professional sports anything. basketball isn't that hard to understand, so i knew what was going on. watching on tv is nothing compared to seeing the action live. being as

2002-10-31T22:03:00.000-05:00

today is halloween. today i had fun. on halloween. i went trick-or-treating after calc at the embassies, that was fun. later, in the evening, the girls and i went trick-or-treating at the rich people's homes along foxhall rd, and it was everything i imagined it to be. i was a war protestor. i dressed crunchy-ly, wore a bandana headband, and kim braided my hair and lent me a "no war in iraq" sign,

2002-10-27T22:13:00.000-05:00

ahh, what a nice, relaxing weekend. thank you God! =) it was the first weekend where i didn't have a ton of work to do. it was really beautiful weather, too. yesterday i went to the national gallery of art with kim, that place never ceases to amaze me....we spent like 4 hours in there, then went to see the september 11th exhibit in the american history museum...it was so heartbreaking. it was

2002-10-25T16:15:00.000-04:00

today is a good day for sleeping. lab was so much fun today. we dissected sea stars and crayfish and it was a lot of fun. that sounds kind of dorky, but it's true. my lab ta is really cool...he's the coolest of all the bio TAs apparently. i hear the other TAs are really bad, and no one can understand them or know what to do, and they can't speak english or something. so i guess i'm pretty lucky

2002-10-24T17:26:00.000-04:00

i guess lately i've been thinking about how other people perceive me. i hope i come across as an interesting person, because i am! =) my insecurities come out a lot, so that might be part of why i'm not as close to people as i wish i were. i don't know if that makes sense. i wish i were closer to my friends. i don't even know why i'm writing on this thing.
