I opened Steven's package on the 21st :) Blagging this now because I've been "busy"/lazy, so I kept on pushing this back to now ._.

So when I open  Steven's gift, the first thing I do I read Steven's card and then get all emotional because it's so heartfelt. It's a very cute card from the outside too, he drew a Teemo! The back has a lovingly drawn recycle-heart with "This card is made with 100% tender love and care," I thought that was very sweet :)

AND THEN I SCREAM LIKE A GIRL WITH JOY (on the inside, momma would yell at me if I did it out loud) BECAUSE I SEE A SEXY, BADASS BLACKWIDOW KEYBOARD. I wasn't expecting something that awesome. Steven told me that he wrote on it with that silver Sharpie, so that gets me even more excited. I think it's cute how he signs his name on the bottom of it. He also wrote some stuff on the inside of the box, which gives me one more reason to keep the box (I like keeping them Razer boxes because they look cool).


Aside from looking sexy and badass, it feels very sexy and badass as well. I could type on it alllll day if I wanted to, the loud clacking noises is like music to my ears, seriously.

He also got me a cute piggy usb and included the silver Sharpie that he wrote with. I'm going to treasure that Sharpie forever because Steven wrote with it, and I'm only going to use it on very special occasions.


Before Steven's gift, Kai took me to some really good sushi restaurant after we finished our homework... even though we spent most of the time looking at online shops. We got matching cellphone charms haha, I have a ninja sword and he has nunchucks. I had to write about Steven first because there was just too much anticipation, especially since I got his gift two days before my birthday and I was being good enough to wait.

On Saturday, Michelle, Albert, and Vi surprise visited my house to go to a zoo (read: they came over to my house to forcefully take me to the zoo) and to give me a betta fish. I guess it's because I always like staring at the betta fish in the pet shops. I named him Beemo after Beemo from Adventure Time!

Beemo is the first pet that I ever had to take care of by myself and I don't want to be a bad momma, so I'm doing a lot of internet reading on betta fish. I started out by getting him a new one-gallon tank (apparently that's still too small, but it's the best I can do for now :<) because the other one is really tiny and holds only about 2 cups of water. I think he likes his new tank though, he's swimming around in it a lot more rather than hanging around at the surface like in the little tank.


I also received James' and Kyle's package on Monday! Apparently James is sort of new at sending stuff in the mail because he didn't write our names with the addresses when he sent it out. But I guess it works, or else I wouldn't have gotten it.

Kyle got me the cutest cookbook ever! It's more of a cupcake-decorating book that a cookbook but hey, the stuff in it is pretty cute. It's called Hello, Cupcake! I have to make something from it someday.

Especially page 81. Mmmmm, page 81.


He wrote stuff on the inside covers too! I actually didn't notice it at first because I just opened the book to a random page in the middle and just skimmed the awesome pictures and some of the text. And then I started actually reading it from the very beginning to  end. I think it's very cute how he added a PPPPPS at the inside of the back cover :)

James got me a much-needed mousepad on which he artistically wrote "Razer Goliathus" on the bottom left corner, as well as a "To: Becky Wu" and "James Chuong." My mouse feels soooo good on it, I can't even explain. That's also +1 more Razer merchandise added to my small collection.


He also gave me that postcard of Cuba that he was supposed to blag about but never did. And he called me short. I really like how this picture came out, even though I edited and played around with it a bit (the page 81 one too!)


James also reminded me that I need to play StarCraft more, even though I almost never have any alone time anymore because my sister usually comes home a little before I do, meaning that I'll most likely lag. I don't have time to play on breaks either, and a netbook most likely can't run StarCraft. :(

My mom's brother's side of the family finally moved in, too. I'm pretty distant with my mom's brother, but his wife is really nice and friendly. As for their son... he does not run out of energy, ever. He's usually up at 6 or so in the morning and cooks himself breakfast with hot sauce and can entertain himself for a while by just running from the hallway and jumping onto his bed over and over and over. And he's just nine years old. I don't get how he can do that. He talks a lot too, most of the time to himself I guess.

So that sums up all my birthday events. To be honest, I would have been perfectly happy with just cards or notes, since they're so full of love ♥ But I enjoyed the presents a lot too, I feel that you guys were spot-on with them :)

Guess what came in the mail today!


First thing that my mom said to me when I got home was, "You got mail from Canada today!" And then I got super excited and asked if it was a package, and she said yes. I'll be a good girl and keep it to the side until the 21st though. :)

But yes, I did. I bought Justin Bieber's nail polish.

I've been looking for a nice purple nail polish for a while, but the ones that I found were either too light, too dark, or shimmery/holographic... which I don't really like. And then Justin Bieber comes to the rescue with a nice solid purple nail polish called I'm A Belieber. I also got that Sally Hansen glitter polish called Twinkle Twinkle. I really like nail polish names, they seem very cute to me for some reason.



Mmmmm look at dat Justin Bieber face~ Couldn't get my camera to focus though, sorry about that. Or maybe you're thankful if you're like Steven.

I think it looks really tacky alone because it's kind of bright and paleish at the same time... if that makes sense. Maybe think of those old MS Paint purples fused together...? Then I tried it over black polish and it looks a lot better, so I'm happy! I'm not really going to bother with pictures though, since the lighting plus camera makes it look more blueish than purplish.

Justin Bieber's nail polish line is actually pretty... pretty. I probably wouldn't wear most of the colors, but they look really nice sitting in their bottles. Like magical love potions or something. Haha.

Oh god waiting to register for physics and calculus is killing me D:

Ok so passing algebra with a C- (I passed with an A and it bumped my GPA up to a 3.8, scooooore) is a prerequisite for physics and calculus. Except when I try to register, it gives me an error saying that the prerequisite hasn't been met WHEN IT CLEARLY HAS BEEN.

So then I call the office of the registrar to ask them about my problem; they put me on hold for about 15 minutes or so and then decide to hang up on me. The worst part is, they kept on repeating something like "Thank you for your patience, a representative will be with you in just a moment" in 30 second intervals in between the elevator music. Literally. And now I'm trying to call them again, but their line is busy wtf :|

...In other news, Steven likes mutilating Mystery Hot Guy's name:


[10:31] Steven: what about you an Aaron?
[10:31] Steven: lol
[10:31] Steven: you may never see him again
[10:31] Me: Zeren!
[10:31] Me: you always call him aaron lolol xD
[10:32] Me: hopefully I'll see him around
[10:32] Me: hopefully :<
[10:32] Steven: i hope you will see Aaron aginsometime soon
[10:32] Me: there goes the aaron again xD
[10:33] Steven: lol
[10:33] Steven: how do oyu say his name actually?
[10:34] Me: umm
[10:34] Me: it's written as zeren
[10:34] Me: but pronounced like zaron
[10:34] Me: like aaron except with a z

My TI-83 finally came in the mail yesterday!


Yay for not getting scammed :)

Not much has been happening these past few days, just mostly Kyle and I being alone on Vent because someone is too cool to talk to us isn't cool enough to talk to us anymore.

And I just noticed this comment that James left:
Hey I am not really hot and kind of academically dumb, what are my chances then? :<
And then this comment that Steven left:
What are you talking about?! 
james is the perfect candidate he's physically hot and academically smart lol, he also works hard and plays hard ;). Forget about Mystery Hot Guy and look at Mysteriously Hot James lol
Steven sounds like he's advertising James LOLOL
