day four, let's rewind

twelve-hour of sleep was good, but i did miss the mall of america trip. no great loss, though. steve told me it was just like a regular mall, only bigger. i guess in a way it's like a supersized M&M.

going into a chinese restaurant in MN does not imply that one will see asian girls, let alone the cute ones. i guess all the cute asians packed their bags and moved to southern california.

my cream chicken cornsoup and assortment tray have just arrived. finally something of quality and quantity.

tin, kristin, loi, jim, katelyn, thanh, and maybe some other people went to the seal harbor last night. if it wasn't for this REU, i would be there with them. kinda sad, because usually at the end of finals week i always go hang out with everyone before they go home, and usually i don't even get to do that because sometimes they finish finals early and go home early. this is the first time in three years everyone stayed around until finals week ended, but this time it's me who's gone. one of life's simple irony.

watched project arms up to episode 12, so that's almost halfway. i'm getting used to the dub, but the cheesy lines are still bugging me. thank goodness i found out another way to fast forward in VLC, since regular fastforwarding doesn't seem to work with .ogm. at least not with these .ogms.

i should walk around and take pictures tomorrow, since i don't have any church to go too. it's rather funny because usually my sunday is always booked. church from 1230 to 2 and tutorial center from 3 to 6. but now i'm wondering what i should be doing on sunday.

still have not found a coffeeshop nearby that opens after 9. bummer.

reading isn't going too well. i'm on page 22 out of 29. you'd think i'm almost done, but i have almost no idea of what i've been reading, let alone the next seven pages.

i have not had a proper cup of coffee since i first got here. and by proper i mean hot, black, super sweet, in my personal moo coffee cup, at midnight, sitting on my desk, facing out the window into the night sky, with a cool evening breeze, and a quiet room.

woah, that eggroll was good. too bad i'm rather full already. maybe i should eat slower.
