Jjajangmyeon Outing!!!

Referring to isntniallerlovely's post below, boy am I grateful that i have a dimple o-o
....I think I should still do those muscle pressing exercises though....
So today (well yesterday since it's like 1am right now) isntniallerlovely and I (along with 2 other friends - Alice and Kevin) decided to kind of celebrate Black Day kind of late! This past Monday was Black Day otherwise known as Singles Day - a minor South Korean holiday where singles "celebrate" by eat jjajangmyeon (black bean noodles) by themselves and hopefully find other people eating noodles alone as well! Well it's not Black Day (it's Good Friday actually...so much for Kevin's abstinence) but we wanted to eat food together anyway so we decided to do have this outing! Unfortunately only 4 of us could go but it was still awesome!
We hung out in Paris Baguette and other various places in Flushing. THE MAIN ATTRACTION WAS FREE FOOD AT ALICE'S PARENT'S RESTAURANT!!! THE FOOD WAS SO GOOD OMFG. *Advertisement: It's called Chinese House I think in Flushing* Ironic 'cuz it's a Korean restaurant lol
We did the Chubby Bunny Challenge (well isntniallerlovely couldn't 'cuz we didn't have vegetarian marshmallows :c) I FIT 6 MARSHMALLOWS Alice 4 and Kevin 7. UGH I WILL BEAT YOU KEVIN!!!! Besides trying to push Kevin and isntniallerlovely into the pond full of Koi fish at Queens Crossing and almost being pushed in myself by Kevin (=_=) today was an AWESOME day!!
Sorry we have no pictures this time. And omg this post is soo all over the place. You see I actually had some sort of topic before to rant about after writing a brief description about the outing but I forgot. T_T Can't wait for my next day off in May 26 (omfg I'm gonna die goodbye guys I won't survive until then). WISH ME LUCK!!
OOOH MAYBE I CAN POST THE PICTURES OF ISNTNIALLERLOVELY AND KEVIN ON THIS BLOG FROM NATURE REPUBLIC (with their permission of course h a h a . . . ) >_>"

P.S. isntniallerlovely is still vegetarian (YAY!!) but it was kinda difficult for her to order something especially at a Korean restaurant. #thestruggleisreal

Almost Dimple?

Hello my little strawberry sprinkles! So someone recently called me a strawberry sprinkle. The  exchange went a little like this
"You know you're pretty cute, like a strawberry sprinkle"
"Fuck yea I am"
"Ok you just ruined it you're a burnt sprinkle now"
"How do you burn a sprinkle?"
"I put you on the fire because I don't like you"
So yea. I am a burnt strawberry sprinkle. So anyway, not relevant. 

One feature that I find extremely attractive in guys is the dimple. I have always wanted a  dimple because I think that they're so cute ^_^ I looked in the mirror today and ERMAGURD I THINK I HAVE LIKE HALF A DIMPLE! Have the puberty gods finally decided that I would be chosen to receive a muscle deformity? If so I will be eternally grateful, I'll even sacrifice some of my plushies to the puberty gods. The thing is, is that my dimples aren't really dimples because they are not that deeply indented. So as any human being would do I decided to look around for ummmm uh dimple exercises and I found this page lol


I can't even lol. But yea that's the end of my very narcissistic blog post. Hmmm what's a funny thing that has happened in my life recently? Oh so I'm a member of the photo club at my high school and it turns out that aside from most of us being art geeks, half the club are Pokemon fans. We started talking about the first Pokemon episode where Pikachu and Ash are being chased by spearows and Ash rides his bike off a cliff. They are weak, injured, and unable to run, so Ash decides to sacrifice himself inn order to save Pikachu and he selflessly throws himself in front of the spearows in order to save Pikachu. So I guess I should mention that it's raining in this scene. Pikachu uses a lightning bolt to strengthen the power of his thunder bolt and he manages to save Ash and himself, but the thunder bolt leaves him in critical condition and Ash has to rush him to the nearest hospital. In the first ever Pokemon movie with Mewtwo and Mew, Ask gets turned into stone and Pikachu tries to thunder bolt Ash to try to bring him back to life. AND THEN PIKACHU WAS CRYING AND ALL THE OTHER POKEMON WERE CRYING AND THEN THEIR TEARS BROUGHT HIM BACK TO LIFE!!! IT WAS SO INSPIRING!!!!! Some of the seniors actually started crying during our discussion. No don't judge them, and if you do...YOU DON'T KNOW THE FEELS!

Oh and another interesting thing. My friend and I have decided that if junior and senior year come around and we don't have prom dates, we're just going to pretend to be lesbian and go for it.

Aye It's Been Awhile!

I think it'll be interesting to read back our posts once in a while. I can't believe we started this blog towards the end of 6th grade. And now we're nearing the end of 9th.
We've done some serious growing up, and we've still got a lot more growing to do. Each of us is going to a different high school, and despite all the hectic occurrences taking place in our lives, we all manage to make some time to post in the blog once in a while (though it takes some more provoking than others *cough* *cough*). Even if no one else reads this, I think one of the biggest audience members to this blog is ourselves. And I love that. I love you guys.

Sorry this music is making me such a romantic.

Speaking of romantic - IT IS NOW SAFE TO SAY I HAVE BECOME COMPLETELY OBSESSED WITH PRIDE AND PREJUDICE!! All this time I have always avoided Jane Austen because of my bad experience with reading Emma in 6th grade. I hated the stupidity of the protagonist so much that I had to stop reading the book. I now find out that that was the effect Jane Austen was trying to have.
Despite my violent and scary appearance, I happen to be one of the biggest romantics ever, and reading 18th-19th century novels only heightens my feelings. I don't want to give any spoilers away, so I'll stop right here. We are reading this book for English and I watched the 2005 movie starring Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen last night (meaning from like 1am-4am). I plan to watch all the versions of the book and make it a yearly ritual to read the book and watch the movie! (I'm pretty fond of rituals and stuff.) The movie went a little fast and didn't cover all the nuances in the book, but then again most movies based on books are like that. The movie was still really good! I suggest you watch the American ending to the movie - it is so much more fulfilling! This book deserves to be read countless times by each person!
READ AND WATCH IT Y'ALL!!
I haven't felt like such a romantic since I obsessed over Anne of Green Gables and The Secret Garden back in the day. XD
Pride and Prejudice is truly one of life's greatest pleasures, as my English teacher said before we started the book.

"You may only call me 'Mrs. Darcy' when you are completely, and perfectly, and incandescently happy." ~ Mrs. Elizabeth Darcy
