60 GHETTO BLACK NAMES
So, as I was studying for my finals, I decided to take a little break. I though to myself, “5 minutes won’t kill me.” And oh did I think wrong. Our good old friend, youtube, sucked me into its world of random funny videos, and one link led to another.. then to another and this is what I found. Now, this is a clear disclaimer: if your name is here, do not be offended – I just think the way they say the names is funny. I can guarantee that you will laugh. I guarantee it. Knock yourself out!

People Never Change
WHY DOES BARBIE DO THINGS (OR DON’T DO THINGS) WHICH SHE WILL FULLY REGRET LATER? WHY? THIS MAKES BOB SO MAD! SHE CAN’T LEARN FROM HER MISTAKES. WHY CAN’T SHE COMPREHEND THAT WHAT SHE ONCE DID THAT WAS WRONG SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN? WHY DOES SHE MAKE THE SAME STUPID IDIOTIC MISTAKES OVER AND OVER AGAIN? IS THIS NORMAL? AREN’T WE ALL SUPPOSE TO LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES? ISN’T THAT THE WHOLE REASON WHY WE MAKE MISTAKES IN THE FIRST PLACE? WHAT IS SHE THINKING? YOU ARE AN IDIOT. YOU HAVE NO SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY AND MATURITY. SERIOUSLY? SERIOUSLY. THIS IS… WAS THE ONE CHANCE SHE HAD TO PROVE HERSELF TO EVERYONE – TO HERSELF. BUT SHE RUINED IT. YOU – RUINED – IT. THIS WAS HER THIRD CHANCE TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT. THIS WAS HER THIRD CHANCE. ONE CHANCE =LUCKY. TWO CHANCES = RARE. THREE CHANCES? NEVER. BUT THIS………………………. WHY. YOU REGRET NOW. YOU WILL REGRET LATER. YOU WILL REGRET FOREVER. DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU JUST DID? WHAT YOU DIDN’T DO? DO YOU REALLY? GAH!!!! YOU SAY YOU WILL CHANGE, BUT DON’T LIE TO YOURSELF.
PEOPLE NEVER CHANGE.

After a test…
After taking a test, how do you feel? Happy? Relieved? Free?
I feel..
Miserable.
Angry.
Regretful.
You must be thinking, “is this girl crazy?” Maybe I am, but after taking a test, I feel as though I am moving forward and I feel miserable. Moving Forward. This may be a good thing for many people, but I hate change. Change is something I do NOT appreciate especially when my life is normal. With change comes a new environment, new people, new situations. I might sound lazy or something, but I am sick of altering myself because of changes in my life. After I came to Korea, I’ve become 100 times less enthusiastic. I smile 500 times less. I care about what I wear to school 1000 times less. But most importantly, my love for life has decreased significantly. I noticed MYSELF change. I loved myself before I came here. I LOVED my life to the fullest and I TRULY WAS thankful for all that I had. But after I moved here all I began to notice were kids my age struggling because of GRADES and SCHOOL. This would be about the last thing people would worry about in Canada. But as I am surrounded by paranoid students, I myself became more conscious of how I should be acting and what I should be saying. I changed myself to fit into this environment and I feel different. I feel miserable.
(Note: This is not directed at anyone in particular.)
After I take a test, why do I feel angry? I feel angry because of three things. One, I studied too hard and lost sleep over nothing. Two, I didn’t study hard enough. Three, other people start saying how they failed when they get an A-.
- When I hear the words “unit test,” just as many other kids in my grade tend to act, I begin to have a series of spaz attacks. Why? This means my grade can either go down, or it can go up. I usually think of the worst case scenarios and I convince myself to think my grade will go down. But in any case, I study hard – really hard. Last Thursday I slept 30 minutes on the school bus because I had a psychology unit test. I thought I didn’t study hard enough, but it turns out I studied too much. Half the things I studied for wasn’t even on the test. It was ridiculous! I had dark circles under my eyes and I was wearing something NO ONE should be wearing to school. Sweatpants. I feel angry because I feel like I wasted my time for things I wont even remember in the future.
- In other cases, I become angry because I didn’t study hard enough. This is my fault, so I shouldn’t be angry about this and just accept what grade I received.
- But THIS – THIS is what gets me angry the most. People in my grade are just.. ANNOYING when it comes to grades. I love them all but.. REALLY? Are you really crying over an A-? Really? REALLY? REALLLYYY? AH!! I cry of joy and happiness what I get a B on my algebra tests and beside me are girls crying and beating themselves up because they get an A-. I SHOULD BE THE ONE CRYING. SHUT UP! This is so unfair. I study for math every single day: not at school, but with my tutor. My parents spend loads of money getting me a math tutor and all I can get is a __? This is why I hate kids who cry over grades that they should be happy about because FRANKLY, it PROBABLY didn’t affect their grade ANYWAY SO JUST SUCK IT UP and think about people around you. Don’t be so selfish. Be just a bit more sensible and stop saying how an A- is a bad grade. You are offending people without knowing it.
Lastly, after taking another exam I feel regretful. I begin to think about all the hours I could have spent studying for the test, rather than watching The Hills or The Office. Then, I beat myself up and think about my answers over and over again. “Did I get that right? I think so.. wait maybe not? I don’t know!!” And then starts the paranoia era. Through this blog post, you might think I’m not a perky person or I have a bad life. I do have a good life.. but I’m just sick of dealing with these things every day. I just wish I could go back, when nothing changed when I really didn’t have to worry about tests.

How To Get A Perfect Score On SAT2: World History
Many of you are probably freaking out about the SAT2 Subject Test that’s right around the corner. And clearly, you want to get a perfect score – eight hundred. Now, here are some of my pointers on how to get this three digit number on the test.
- Don’t CRAM. This is the biggest problem most of us have, and unfortunately, we will be cramming the last day before the test. You still have one more month (from today) so don’t waste your time doing something else.
- Solve questions and REVIEW THEM. One of the smartest things you can at this point is solve practice questions. This will help you get ready and get used to eliminating to the right answer choices. BUT the one thing I strongly recommend you to do is review what you have already solved. You want to know WHY you got the answers wrong so you wont make the same mistake next time. REVIEW! And you wont forget what you got right.
- Don’t get distracted and FOCUS. This is by far the hardest thing for me to do while writing an exam. Now, if YOU are one of those people that sidetracks all the time, remember this is your college on the line! I’m not trying to purposely scare you or anything, but at this point, you should be thinking about college and this will probably make you focused. Don’t think about anything else but what question you are solving and focus.
- SLEEP. Yes, you’ve heard this before. It is true that you should sleep the day before the exam and etc., but you should be sleeping every night. This way, it will be a routine, and hopefully you will be calmer the night before the exam.
If you literally know nothing before the test, all I can say is guess (C is always what I pick if I really don’t know).
NO, I’m joking! If you know nothing before the test this is what you do. You walk in. Then, you tell the lady that you are going to cancel the test. But, don’t leave! Take the exam to get a feeling of what it’s like. This way, you can be under pressure and take the exam like it counts, but it won’t really count!
Good Luck!

Chanel Jumbo Caviar Flap
Chanel makes purses that every girl in the world craves for (if they know what Chanel is, I mean). It’s nearly impossible to look away from the luminescence reflecting off of the soft and fragile leather. The elegant, jaw dropping, absolutely staggering purses will make you crazy. My obsession over Chanel in general began when my mom bought yet another Chanel bag. But this wasn’t any old Chanel handbag; it was her Jumbo Caviar Flap. Beautiful.
What do you start thinking about after you look at this picture? Yes, you see yourself about to give in. You run to the nearest mall. You see it – your heart melts, but it’s okay because it will be yours in just a few seconds. Yes, you take your wallet out from your ugly little Kipling bag, and take out your credit card..
Stop.
Where are you buying your stunning Chanel Jumbo Caviar flap? London? Paris? Hong Kong? Well, unfortunately for those not in Europe (or Paris in particular), prices vary substantially depending on where you are. Lucky for those in Paris, where Chanel is cheapest, girls might not even tremble before reaching for their credit cards. Although 500 dollars might not sound like a lot of money, but it really is. The US also generates high prices that range nearly around the same prices in Hong Kong. Australia is cheaper by around 200 dollars in comparison to Singapore. But none of these compare to the prices in Japan or Seoul, Korea. It’s ridiculous how much of a difference there is to buying brand items, not only the amazing Caviar flap! Yet, people cannot resist the luxury and thus, prices do not go down, because consumers demand the same amount even with the high prices. My advice? Never buy anything in Asia, because most famous brands are, indeed, from Europe. The Jumbo Caviar Flap is waiting for you in Paris!

The Hills
I just saw yet another picture of Heidi Montag and her new hubby, Spencer Pratt. Don’t you think think The Hills is somewhat staged?
Let’s just look at the things from this season that are way too coincidential.
Episode 1: The season starts off with Heidi remembering Lauren’s birthday – then Stephanie Pratt (Yes, Spencer’s little sister), invites Heidi to the surprise birthday party for Lauren. Then there is a scene of Spencer and his friend at a bar.. and BAM! Stephanie’s ex-boyfriend shows up.
SAY WHAT NOW? How many bars are there is Los Angeles? Yet, Stephanie’s ex decides to show up at the same place Spencer is. And then on top of THAT, Stephanie’s ex sends a text to Stephanie saying Spencer is flirting with the bartender.. guess who is next to her? Yes, you guessed it – HEIDI!
SAY WHAT NOW? What are the chances that Stephanie’s ex catches Spencer flirting with the bartender at the same time Stephanie is with Heidi. And then.. Heidi “makes up” with Lauren to some extent… but at the bar, Spencer finds out what Stephanie’s ex-boyfriend did and BAM! Bar fight.
SAY WHAT NOW? How many bar fights have you seen? Many? I doubt it. How many bar fights have you seen where a … (I guess you could say) celebrity initiated it. In public. Many? I highly doubt it. Well, anyways, a bar fight happens and things end there.
Yes, this is merely the first part of this years season on the Hills. Let’s see how staged things get..

Philbert
Our school, we have a mascot.
His name, although I don’t know why, is Philbert.
He looks like a chicken.
A blue chicken.
He is supposed to be a phoenix.
Everyone in our school knows who he is.
Yet, he denies his true identity.
He can’t do cool tricks though.
He should learn how to do a cartwheel.
Or learn how to hug people.
He doesn’t like hugging people.
He doesn’t like flapping his wings either.
But he does like spirit days.
Philbert

Our own BLUE chicken

Unexpected
Everyday, I find out something new. But what I learn is never anything I expect.
I recently read a blog post my friend wrote at http://yunjip11.edublogs.org/2009/04/13/never-regret-what-once-made-you-smile/#comment-8, but as one of her closest friends, I know how crazy she is, and this- this blog post was unexpected.
She is a passionate Christian, a loyal friend, and a hard worker when she is determined. I tell her almost everything that unnerves me, everything that thrills me, and everything that desolates me, and she does the same to me. But what she writes in her blog is something you won’t read in a typical blog post: she speaks from her heart. I’m not used to her being emotional, because she does not like being perceived as helpless or weak, and puts on a tough face most of the time. But, I know she has her moments, and I shouldn’t be shocked when someone with a strong personality breaks their barrier and lets everything out.
I should always expect the unexpected.
