What is it with old people and wanting to talk to me... Conversation in the elevator:
"How's the research going today?"
"Ummm, slow..."
"Yeah, but isn't that how research is? Ha ha ha!"
"Hah, yeahhhh..."
"Maybe you should turn up the heat!"
"What?"
"You should set that Bunsen burner up on high!"
"........"
"Have a nice day!"
"You too....."

Yesterday was dad's bday. Today, Yoshi and Nilk. Happy Birthday?

I get to see the sunset across the Pacific Ocean. Need to find an apartment with a better view. Even the view from my lab isn't close enough.


Finals in 2 weeks. Haven't studied in a month because of illness and spending more time planning lab work. Ai.

What boggles me still is why fat chicks wear skinny jeans. They're called skinny jeans for a reason.

Tired of thinking about the welfare of others and trying to better the world. Wanting to buy new clothes. Thinking of a style change. Hip hop + preppy + 1980s French punk? It's beginning to look a lot like hipster...

I was looking at this birdsong book by Miyoko Chu, thinking that oh this could be a nice present for Janey (even though I'm not buying it for her), and I opened it up, fascinated at the paper engineering that goes into pop up books. But once I opened it, all these girds started chirping out of the book. I closed it, put it back on the shelf, and they kept chirping! It was about 5 minutes before it ended, with me standing there embarrassed. Later on when I pulled the book back out of the shelf, I finally noticed a button to turn off the noise. Ugh.
