Out Of My Orbit

*blinks blinks*

I think my past 3 consecutive posts have started with me apologizing for not updating that frequently but I think I’ll just stop saying it because then my posts will have become redundant. And I don’t want to read the same thing over and over again (unless of course it’s Harry Potter or a good read heeehee) too so I’ll save you guys the trouble. I’ve just come to accept the fact that I won’t be posting like crazy like the past months. I actually can’t believe that I always post so few during June. *check my past archive XD* I guess it’s because it’s always the start of a new school year but this year it’s different. Actually this whole later half of the year will be different, I’ll be going out of the country in August and I can’t imagine being able to maintain my site for four months. Hell, I just realized this problem… I hope that I’ll still be able to update though!

It’s still a miracle that I still get comments THANK YOU SO MUCH!! And I’ve been getting 100 spam comments now a week and some I don’t even want to erase because of these *but of course you know they’re spam coz… uh why would a guy name “buy new home” say all those?*

LOL really I’ve been really amused at the new spam comments! But of course then I’m starting to get pron comments too, UGH. A word from a spammer to you spammers:

“I truly pray spammers peruse these articles and take a look at how simple and easy it has been to be human and respect knowledge.”

Seriously, that’s what Sheri Rusboldt with i.p. address 173.234.122.5 said. So yeah spammers, BE HUMAN XD

I’ve been feeling so… I don’t know, weird (well I’m always weird…), desolate, emo and all that crap the past few weeks. In philosophy, I’ve learned that desorbitation causes these kinds of feelings and I think I am experiencing desorbitation. It’s the loss of not of something, but of SOMEPLACE, of the WHOLE thing/being actually. I mean think about it. If you lost for example a car key, you’d definitely be able to find it, because it’s tangible and all. But what if you *knock on wood* failed the biggest exam that would determine your future? What did you lose really? The test score? The feeling? What? You’ve probably lost the reason for living or something. Well… I think I’ve lost something… I’m just not sure on what.

For this post, I’m going to keep it short and let you guys do the talking. A friend of mine asked this question recently….

“If money wasn’t an issue, nor expectations from peers and family, what would your job be? What do you want do?”

Well I’d answer: founder of a wildlife preserve in Africa, South America and maybe China. I’d want to help in the environment. I’d also want to be a food taster, be in broadway, be a voice actress. How about you guys?

And some random links around the Web-iverse:
1. RACIST CASTING OF THE LAST AIRBENDER AND HOW IT’LL SUCK (AND IT DID SUCK WITH 8% IN ROTTENTOMATOES)
- I have a lot to say about this. I don’t understand why M. Night Shyamalan (who’s Indian)could not cast an Asian-American in the roles of Aang, or an Indian American for the good guys. They even chose Patel as Zuko who’s an Indian and he’s part of the bad guys. Really, read the article. It explains everything more thoroughly. Check out the Casting Call poster for Aang and tell me if it’s not racist at all. Man, I thought they learned their lesson from that HORRIBLE Dragonball movie.

2. Paranormal Activity#2 Trailer anyone?


- who’s in it for another ride? If you look carefully, there’s actually something wrong in the trailer XD

3. Cute music video starring Emma Watson (and her boyfriend! lol funny there’s more focus on Emma than the actual band). Say You Don’t Want It by One Night Only

I actually really like the music video :D Well cheerio guys!!! :D

*Travel Safe*

Hi guys! I know that I’d been gone for a long while and it’s because of the clashing and climaxing of my first semester as a junior, wait did I just say that right? Junior? I can’t believe that I only have two years left in college! I’ve also been busy with my preparations for my junior term abroad in France and there’s still so much things to do! I’m just so happy that I’ve finally come out of everything alive. I actually still have to attend seminars, french crash courses and visa requirements.

Man the visa requirements were one of the most stressful things you have to do before you leave. There are just so many things to take care of such as DFA-approved birth certificate, diplomas, confirmation of this and that, certificate of this and that. I am preparing though to advice the next batch of people who’ll be going to JTA. I even wish that I did the visa requirements and interviews on my own because our international exchange office at school scheduled them so late! I wasn’t even able to get a UK visa but it’s all right. That’ll mean more expenses and I’m still trying to budget myself.

Next thing we needed to do was get travel insurance. There are so many options and it’s quite a challenge to choose among them. I am just glad that our service offers free auto insurance quotes and fast and free car ins quote . Our service also gave us a detailed brochure of all the ins terms and benefits.
Good thing dad’s friend is a travel agent so getting an insurance wasn’t that big of a problem but it’s choosing that’s hard. I am just praying for my friends’ and mine’s safety. And also the safety of our luggages. You have to be really careful with luggages because baggage loss and delays are a reality. My brother’s luggage was placed in the wrong airplane but thanks to insurance, he got it back safely!
Hope that everything would go well!

*Dog Loves*

My family is full of dog lovers. I guess raising more than 100 dogs just does that to you right? I mean we’ve met so many dogs already, big dogs, small dogs, and they’ve all shared and given us happiness so many times already. They really bring joy to the home!

But you know what’s bad about this? Because you’re likely to break your heart 100 times too when you need to sell them away, or worse when they die. When our two favorite dogs died, it took months of mourning before my mom could recover and look at the world the same way again. It took a few weeks for me but my mom really took it bad. So whenever our dogs get sick now, they are immediately brought to the vet and given medicine at once.

Now even if our dogs have injuries, we can now purchase orthopedic bed for dogs! It’s actually the first time I’ve heard of this and I’m very grateful because there is such a thing. Do take care of your pets my friends. They are really important treasures.

*Locker Blues*

I’ve always wondered how lockers were installed in school. Well going to an elementary and high school that didn’t provide any lockers, I was definitely curious. Sure the only school locker we had was just a single space of cabinet that is filled with cobwebs, dust and who knows what (we did find a toad and a rat once, go figure the sanitation of the school, but we do try to clean it!) so not everyone uses it. It can’t even be properly called as a wood locker.

I don’t recall the school having gym lockers. Haha you might have thought the school must check out some lockers for sale but of course they don’t. What we had instead were plastic boxes or real bags that we placed beside our seats so the aisles were always cramped. What I liked about this style though is because we can access anything instantly without standing up. And I realized we didn’t move classes much so lockers weren’t really that used…

But now that I’m in college, lockers are pretty helpful things. Especially when you don’t want dragging heavy stuff from one building to another. But I got used to it and I still bring big bags. Blame my old school for this haha!

    Thank you for the notes! Taryn
