Good bye.

I just realized my previous post was the 100th O.O

Wow 100, it's too bad there were casualties in this battle and we lost some troops.  To push through the enemy lines and conquer "busy."  I actually shot a few friendly fires...  Oh well.

I feel like I should do something special so I'll just have my one-person celebration.  I can't say it's a very happy celebration though.  To get to this 100th post, the last few months haven't been easy, keeping the blog alive the recent months have been harder as we all began to lose interest.  I'm sorry to say that we're probably going to loose more troops in the battle for teacup the blog, but the teacup organization is as good as retired.  We had our most happiest moments and some of our most saddest, but we cannot rest easy anymore, our superpowers are taking over our minds and if we continue we'll just end up destroying the world.  This blog only brings bad memories of these last few months.

This blog will still be here for us to relive our memories, but we're (I'm not sure who the "we" is) moving up to starting a new blog.  Sadly, it's going to be private.

So now, I leave you all with a good bye.

iPod Wallpaper

Instead of doing my math portfolio and my ToK essay, I decided to take it easy for mornings and go into hyper homework-mode at like 3 (never worked but hey, worth trying... hundredth time the charm).

Anyways, I spent some time this weekend changing my iPod's looks again :P.  Now it came from a cute theme to a cool one :D.  I can't stop fussing over the wallpaper though, I love it ;D

Doesn't that just look awesome?  And with my new theme, it fits perfectly. Anyways, recently I checked my iPod to see how much memory I had left in my iPod, and I was so shocked to see 0.1/8GB left... Jailbreaking an iPod does that to you, you can do so many things you forget that you're under a limit.  So as a result, I've been removing all the games I never play, removing other useless stuff, and I'm happy I'm now above 1GB left :D

Well, aside from fooling around with my iPod, watching movies, reading manga, my weekends are never that exciting... I don't really talk to many people and usually, I'm just the loser stuck at home.  I should get out more... On the up side, I wasn't exactly bored.  I mean I enjoy doing what I do and I wasn't bored this weekend, though I have a feeling I will be bored today, perfect time for homework then :D

Until next time,

Trouble

RE: Doctor's all the way~

What's worse than being the bad kidnapper stranger guy to an unsuspecting child is being their role model. I can't tell you how many times adults have pointed to me and told their child "you should be quiet like older sister."

The kids give me the weirdest faces [as if I'm suddenly on their hit list] or they act even worse than before.

I remember I was sitting at the doctor's office and there was a little boy sitting on the floor. He refused to sit on the chair, not because he wasn't tall enough but there were toys on the ground. His mom wouldn't let him play with them so he started to act out and throw random shit around.

She then looks at me and went, "See how quietly she's sitting? Learn from older sister."

Now I was half asleep so I didn't really care until he started dragging his butt across the floor and crying. I didn't know learning from me was that bad.

Speaking of doctors, I went to the doctor today with my mom because she had a question about my medicine. She pulled out an extra bottle of pills, like those fish oil ones and asked if these were appropirate for my age.

My doctor then replies:

"If you gave her liver protection pills, she'll probably get liver infections."

Thank you mom for feeding me these for the past two months.

Doctors all the way~

So, I was sitting in the doctor's office on Monday, and a women with her child was there.  She suddenly pointed at a random stranger and told her son, "If you don't behave that women will take you away!"  I realized how funny that is that people make threats like that.  Personally, I was never the accused kidnapper (well duh, I'm not the least bit scary, I bet the kid would just laugh), but I'm glad.  It's somewhat offensive that someone refers to you as this strict kidnapping psycho that knows what you [the kid] are doing without looking at you.

On another note, I've become some crazed Grey's Anatomy fan, before you all scrunch your faces in disgust, I would like to say something in my defense...  I've got nothing... sure it's a multiple award winning show with a fantastic and hot cast, but that doesn't mean much does it?  Anyways, I can't wait for today's episode, Demi Lovato is guest staring!  That's not the reason I'm excited though, I'm not her fan or anything, but the episode deals with a teenage patient who is suicidal and tries to claw her eyes out because she has schizophrenia and feels like she feels everything in her body, those things that we normally cannot feel that happens inside our body.  I'm always up for good teenage insanity (and seeing a Disney star in a more serious role is interesting)!

Bye until next time!

Hi. Hello.

The only reason I was gone was because I deleted my google account email so I could switch to another email. However, I forgot to add myself before deleting it and accidentally kicked myself out of TEACUP.

Please, hold your applause.

In other news, things in TEACUP have been very shaky and with the departure of our two ex-members, we are standing on thin ice.

However, I hear the weather is getting colder so I guess the rest of the water will freeze over and we'll be able to skate on it again no sweat.

And now for actual exciting news, I've been enrolled in a summer camp created by the Vietnamese community for those who are 17 years of age and older run by white people. I'll be gone the summer before university so mark your calenders.

(Bold is you)

Why are you telling me this?
You need to sign up early to get acceptance.

Why are you going?
Because I need various skills that will be useful in my future job as some kind of vetrinarian. Oh and my mom signed me up without premission.

What skills would you learn there that will be helpful?
Skills like hiking, rock climbing and swimming. Durr. All vets need to know that.

Oh my bad.
Apology accepted.

But I didn't-
Sorry, what was that? I can't hear you over my excitement of going to summer camp when I'm 18.

Last Words of a Bitchy Soul

Duu duu duu ~

I'm not going to write an elegant lyrical piece to explain my emotions (I agree it's pretty but not very practical to my approach).  I wanted to get it out of my system.  I was the arsonist behind this fire.  I take the blame, although I guess people would object, nonetheless, I take the blame.  I over think, I'm a demanding bitch, I accept it.  At this point, I am going to take the easy, cowardly way out of the situation, and I will no longer mention what has happened, after this post, I will feign ignorance to everything (like what some of you hoped I would do, in other words, stop thinking so much).

I'm scared.  I'm terrified every time I confront people because I know it will make me feel like shit after words whether it was intended or not...  What brings me to confront people?  Because I care too much for absolutely no reason (from what I'm hearing).

What has made me this way?  Why do I think so much?  Hell, I have a fucken shit load of family problems that I don't even think as much about.  Show's where my priorities stand right?  I play ignorance to all my family matters, so why can't I with my friends?  Do you seriously think just because I never show depression towards family, that my life is just peachy perfect?  I have other things I should be worrying about.

So I give up.  Please don't drag me back in, re-awakening my emotions.  I love you all deeply, and I am terribly sorry this has happened to us because of me (clearly illustrated in my over-emotional feelings on Tuesday). I no longer know what you guys want to happen anymore.  These conflicting decisions and ideas just make me smirk at my lack of understanding.  I don't even have the emotions left to be sad... all I can feel right now is this emptiness...

I will not give up on this blog, I am going to continue posting just like I used to, I'm sorry I was actually about to post something I noticed was funny on Monday, but I couldn't bare to be funny after the depression I was overwhelmed with when our deeply treasured contributors left our blog...  But you know what?  Life goes on.

I'm sorry if this post attacked you all.  I totally understand if you hate me right now.  I don't deserve all of you.  I'm not worth you worrying about, I'm just this lowly emotional person whom you would be stupid to waste your time on.  I know creating a friendship with me has been more trouble than it has been worth.  Please don't get me wrong, I don't wanna further provoke you, but this is how I treat myself, this is my true self-esteem, my self-esteem is crap low and it has always been.  I have been hiding myself behind this facade.  I take the leader role because I feel so insecure that I believe if I don't do anything you'll all eventually get bored and leave.  My pride has forbidden me to say so, but you know what?  Screw pride.

3am; but your hand's on your head, cause your head's alright right

dear lovers,

i have been waiting for your presence. for the lightness in your step, and the smoothness of your slurs,--not to mention, how i have waited for the sweetness. i do not mean of sugar, or of fleeting words, or of faint interaction. i have waited for a subtle touch of humanity; of optimistic opinions and a settled fidelity.

and i have to tell you, i am not surprised.

for a while now, i have felt a sense of inconsistency. and when i reach from my throat the term 'while', i do not mean of weeks, or months, or a year. i mean a while; a long time of waiting, contemplating, of questioning, and hoping. a while used up with feelings i may as well regret, but with due respect may as well not. for, within the last few weeks i have been faced with comments beyond my naive understanding, of some love.

a lack of compassion, it is this lack of compassion, i feel, that leads to such things i have witnessed. and what i have witnessed, or what has come to my attention, has disgusted me. no matter what excuses following them, what explanations, what reasoning and sweetness in letters to words... i do not believe i will ever understand such strange, dysfunctional betrayal and disrespect.

i wanted to see a glimpse of the desire to understand. an interest. an attempt to keep way from ignorance. while i may confess, i am not such a person to abidingly commit to such ideals...

what seemed to start as a simple conversation has escalated to a short time of spite and confusion. and in this short time i have recognized the importance of some form of 'realization'. whatever form you may believe i am speaking of, i do hope you understand the fact that you may very well be wrong. because your estimates will never be accurate when it is me you are guessing about, my goodness, no. please wipe your slate clean and look at me again. look at everyone else again.

i've appreciated the time spent in this little page, and have always enjoyed reading the majority of these posts and will keep this with me. as well, i hope you all understand my decision has not been touched by another, as with all my other decisions. i hope this is not taken personally, and that perhaps soon we will have such great honour in forgetting all of this.

with all due respect and regret, i would like to resign from my position as a member of the teacup blog. it seems i cannot cope under the pressure after all.

love, with best interests,
nina.

Flying Away~

I am resigning from this blog, forever, because I am as the title suggests flying away =D

My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..

got out of bed at all

The morning rain clouds up my window..

and I can't see at all

And even if I could it'd all be gray,

but your picture on my wall

It reminds me, that it's not so bad,

it's not so bad..(Dido)

Well its been six months since you last replied

to any of my letters, well at least I tried

I'm tired of waiting now and I'm finding answers

in other places looking deep in scarlet red, the answers

aren't what I wanted, sometimes I write the address to messy

I'll give you another chance, I'm tired of givin chances

but I give them hoping you'll give them a few glances

well I don know how to address you any more

Hello, how is everything? I feel like I can eat a boar

maybe we could meet up soon? This is not good

I don't even know what to write about any more

I'm getting the fire place ready now with some wood

just please reply to my letters, I'm not mad

it just seems you don't care and that makes me sad

well I'm sure you can make time to write me a letter

at least once a month in your busy life

I know your schedule, by the way I got rid of my knife

it was causing to many scarlet fountains

flooding what we once moved, the mountains

I just cant stop screaming its all just to clear

well that's all for now talk to you next year

when we're 18 and then I'll really shed a tear

I can't bare to care any longer it's been to rough

but I'll give you one more laugh

Its my time to fly away south like the birds

My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..

got out of bed at all

The morning rain clouds up my window..

and I can't see at all

And even if I could it'd all be gray,

but your picture on my wall

It reminds me, that it's not so bad,

it's not so bad..(Dido)

Cynical Diary Post #1

Dear Diary,

Today, I came to the cruel realization, what lives must die.  What can last forever?  Everything can be destroyed.   If we strive to make our names live on, through time, your name will soon die.  Many great people's names are scratched out in history, forgotten.  Is it worth living?  In the end we all end up as dust.

~FriendlyFIRE

So, since we are all quickly losing interest in this blog.  I decided to keep my interest by starting this line of "Cynical Diary" posts.  They are purely meant for entertainment purposes and I don't really hold those views myself.

Revival :D

A thousand needles piercing a once lonely soul

Deaf to all but the sirens of pain

Tears moistening the dried off heart

Reviving the humanly beats of feeling

-FriendlyFIRE

Short, but I was bored :D
I felt that it would be a nice poem that ... I don't know, it just seemed to fit...  and with what's been happening, I just think it's interesting to realize that the pain felt represents the lack of happiness before it.

:D

imNOTjohn here with super awesome updates from my exciting life and an inside joke I remembered while walking home Thursday that you guys might or might not remember. Not really sure but whatever.

But yes, let's start with business! Updates, updates, updates.

1. My "Iowa Adventures" (TM) have been post phoned for now because my sister won't take her stupid butt off the computer and my other computer exploded. Oh and the other, other one just isn't connected and I can't figure out a way to install the wireless devil. >:l

2. I found a new band called ASH. Here's a link that goes to my favorite song by them, clicky click!

Oh and here's some lyrics to take up space.

Arcadia

Light up, spark the detonator

Now I'm homeward bound, way to see you later

If you make that step you're the instigator

Got my mind made up, I'll be your navigator

If you want me to travel over moonlit miles

For a precious smile

Following my lonely heart

Call on me, take me...

3. I was sick for like, two weeks but I'm now 5000%. Apparently, because I'm suddenly seeing sunlight again (exercising), I've developed some weird sore muscle or inflammation in the middle of my chest that causes excessive pain to my throat and about everything that passes through that area (breathing, eating, drinking). So for about two or so weeks, I've had trouble breathing and eating. I think I lost like, five pounds because I had to eat nothing but congee.

Funny thing is, the first week my doctor said it was just throat infection. Sadly, that was from the dirty pool water I swallow every Saturday (not on purpose) so they didn't figure out what was wrong with me until a week later (after the infection went away).

4. I'm officially allergic to scratches. If you could see my arm right now, you'd think I'd have a tumor in it.

That's it for updates :D! Now back to the inside joke thingymabobber.

I was walking home Thursday and I was being really childish (picking flowers, trying not to step on cracks etc.) and then I walked passed that park with the shed. The one with the see-saw and the swings.

Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. In grade 9 we made up this joke that this park was basically what went on inside my head and the shed was entirely full of drugs like Tylenol because I got headaches frequently.

And I don't know why we made this up or what type of drug we were on but seriously, I think that shed made my day.

Drama~ ... and other stuff...

Well, I haven't posted anything worth reading in a while, and I probably won't however, I am going to try to post like I used to.

This week (Sunday to now, Thursday), I've been watching the Taiwanese drama, Autumn's Concerto (a.k.a Next Stop, Happiness) non stop.  In total, I spent around 24.5 hours (21 episodes X 70 mins per episode) in these five days trying to complete it, and voila, I'm done.  Now, I have another drama to complete which I left on hold because I was so into Autumn's Concerto.  Although it's cliche, it's nice to see a somewhat more serious drama compared to all those lovey dovey romance dramas (even though this was a romance).

Has anyone (when I say this, I particularly mean cheerio) noticed that the Japanese dramas are more "mature" than any other of the countries?

Anyways, I've suddenly started using my laptop again and I don't use my netbook at home anymore... no particular reason...  It's not like the speed changes, I guess it just feels better to have a big screen than just the little netbook one.

Sorry for the randomness, I just don't know what to talk about anymore...

Far Away ~

My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..
got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window..
and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray,
but your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad,
it's not so bad.. (Stan, Eminem ft. Dido)

Been friends for a while now I'd say
used to be real close back in the day
now we're moving further away
scribbling with my pen what I want to say
when your not there for me to say them to
you say your a busy person, I know its true
only thing keepin us together now are my letters
we've moved mountains but now we're blocked by craters
and it feels like I'm the only one trying to go across them
if you dont want to make an effort thats fine
just tell me I won't draw the line
dont take this wrong I still wanna be friends
just pointing out all strong ties come to ends
I'll write you another letter
if you reply I won't go and look for somethin better
the storms rollin in and its getting wetter
I admire rain and feel them fall on my face
it's like they're keepin my life in pace
At night I go for walks lookin for a place
I don't know what exactly but I'll find it soon
before its to late and I get lost in a typhoon
looking down on what could have been
your oblivious to what's being seen
you need to see it yourself in the blue of my gene
well I'm done my letter I'll mail it later when I'm better
walk down each row and you'll know
in my life you're only a shadow
just look at it through a rain covered window

My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..
got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window..
and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray,
but your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad,
it's not so bad..

Bored~~~!

I just realized I haven't posted in 10 days o.o

Anyways, after doing my English response on Song of Solomon yesterday, I realized how much of a loser-ish life I had.  I literally had nothing to do and noticed my life consists of reading, watching dramas, playing games and doing homework, without those I have nothing else to do.  i don’t have much of a social life where I can’t even find someone entertaining to talk to on MSN –.-  I don’t even watch TV anymore because my mom decided to change our cable service to basic since no one ever watches TV besides my sister…

I’m always surfing between five sites constantly hoping something new happened: Gmail, hotmail, teacup, onemanga and the site where I watch my dramas… I’m such a loser T.T  I don’t like online arcade games because I’m a person with no drive to beat games, nor do I find social networking sites (facebook) fun >.>

Well, I decided to post something since I haven’t in so long and I’m just sitting in front of my locker with [CENCORED] and I’m bored… and I think I’m able to entertain her with my post.

War with Herself

I remember those really depressing(or melodramatic)times where my other 'alternative' friend and I though we were part of a secrete kind of, " SCREW SOCIETY" organization where we were super rebellious and just plain misunderstood because no one could understand what we believed in.

So yes, we dressed "emo" if you want to call it but I prefer the term "alternative" or "off beat" because we didn't slash our wrists surprisingly and we were happy; just not with society.

We were total Faux Fur-PEDA-tree hugging peace lovers who detested the social hierarchy and believed all we really needed was our own intuition and just general respect for everything living. Like really, who needs these stupid rules and regulations to put us down right? And my gosh, have you seen how they made veal?

And God dammit, I was proud. Ashamed now but I was proud. We thought we were saving the world. We thought we were this entirely new mind set that was so original and so different we couldn't relate to most of the world and ended up shunning ourselves. I guess this is where the word "emo" comes from.

Although I did grow up (mentally) and realized how stupid we were because in the end you can't win a war with just two people and black clothes, she didn't.

Something happened (no one really knows) and she immediately cut off all ties to the outside world; threw away her phone, msn, facebook and broke up with her boyfriend and changed schools. All in one week.

She was known to act out randomly and go into sudden spirals of rebellious hormonal insanity but then float back down to Earth. So the week she began to wipe herself off the face of humanity, I didn't really take her seriously. I don't think anyone did until she was gone.

So hey, if you're reading this, tell us you're alive. Thanks.

Heyo.

yesterday i was at deezed's pink house and we frosted a cake. no, actually, no we didn't. we did work. yeah. work. i shall give you a little list of the things we did.

10.00 am: arrival. deezed wakes up (finally), opens the door all unshaven and gross, looks outside to see my dad still parked at the road, and tries to hide his hobo appearance, --fails.

10.03 am: deezed invites me to the basement washroom so i can watch him brush his teeth for five hours. no seriously. he actually told his mom as she began to clean his room "i'm going to show her how i brush my teeth". or something like that.

*five hours after he brushes his teeth*: we finally get to his computer where i am greeted by his lovely desktop picture of him and goku (yes, the one from dragon ball) drinking ten litres of milkshake. THEN i start freaking out because it has only been an hour since i read cheerio's post. i show it to deezed, and watch his face, but he fails to become excited. after he finishes reading, he asks, "who is this?" and i yell cheerio's name. his jaw drops and his eyes fall out of their sockets. he stays like that for a few minutes until he turns into a statue. i calmly pick up his eyeballs and pluck them back in.

*working*: blahblahblah

sometime after that: deezed's sister calls us over so we can help her frost a cake. i eat scraps of cake. and more scraps of cake. then she gives us a remaining cake. more on that later.

1.30pm: deezed's mom enters the room with two plates of food. deezed forces me eat with my hands so i can be brown, so i scoop rice and spinach and a cassava thing and..other things with my hands into my mouth, but still feel chinese. especially since i start sweating and my nose starts running because of the spiciness. OMG I COULD BLOW FIRE. no, not really. it wasn't that spicy, i am just... ._. a failure. BUT YES, WORLD! i ate with my hands! *smiles like i saved 9875983668 puppies*

*work work work work*: ah, it is so hard. deezed keeps talking to goku about pokemons and then starts to call people for his project. i start to ignore him and dance around in a chicken suit to tokyo police club's your english is good.

4.30ish pm: we quit trying to make progress with our project and take a break to FROST THE CAKE =D! we frost and frost the cake with mounds of sugarsugar and then sujen pipes S N on it and we rain stale sprinkles onto it. we cut it into four pieces and stuff our faces with two of them. yumyumyumyum. AND FOR SOME REASON STUPID DEEZED STARTS USING MY CHEEK AS A SLICE OF CAKE. he wipes frosting on my cheek and then started to decorate it with sprinkles. :@:@:@:@:@ !!!! his mom starts to lecture him but suddenly he's some ACTOR and pulls off some show about how i did it to myself. :@@:@:@::@@:@:@:!!!!!! the frosting goes in my hair and then i cry for five nights to the demon lord.

5.00pm: *workworkworkworkwork* blahblahblahblah. we quit and i call home so i can LEAVE HELL. but my mom says my dad is still fighting mojojojo (who is ironically one of my goldfishes' name) so i'd have to wait fifteen minutes before he actually left to get me. i end up waiting for an hour with a hairy brown man next to me. D:

OH TOOHOOHOOHOOHOO. it was fun. part two commences on sunday.



listening to: vampire weekend
eating: expired cheese with my mom

update: my goodness! i totally forgot to share with the world our cake.

I realized I haven't actually told anyone the awesome details of my trip to Iowa (Hicks ville) so yeah, here you go.

Plus I'm sick so drawing and scanning is all I can really do.

On Courtship & Whatnot

Guess what?

I'm courting. (I refuse to use the other [DISGUSTING] term, otherwise known as "dating".)

I kid you not. I got a...partner...

This is awkward.

As for information about him:

Name: Kim Jae Wook ("Jae") - he'd kill me if he knew I was posting information about him online...

And I can't say much else, except that he's fairly normal...no. Scratch that. He's...interesting. Which means I probably won't get bored of him. Which is great. I hope he doesn't get raped from all the exposure I've given him. D:

I shall tell you more on our gathering sometime this weekend~ (Monday, right?)

Milkstain ~!

Pure Marble
The beginning of centuries worth of history

With each piece holds a meaning
With each chisel, a step towards perfection

However, on top holds milk
Unable to survive a day

But it's glimmer draws eyes
and keeps them forever mesmerized

Assending into an abyys of silk
Caressed  by a mysterious liquid
Yet so reminscent of our past

Gazing in pure heavanly white
Trying to find something in nothing
Only finding ourselves in the nothingess

Although its life is so short
It carries no less
Then the timeless marble

I’m BACK!

ALRIGHT! I’m back ;D !

*cricket cricket*

Yeah yeah, I know, not that exciting D:

ANYWAYS.  I realized I have weird moments where I like to use something for a bit then switch.  Like keyboards… I use my netbook’s, but for like a few days, I connected my normal keyboard to my netbook for no reason just because I felt like using it… then, I moved back to my laptop for a bit and liked typing on that keyboard… now I’m back to my netbook’s…

On the other hand, my stupid Roger’s modem/router broke down again… the wifi is gone so I haven’t been able to move my laptop or netbook out of my room or off of my desk, which is somewhat depressing.  This would be like the third time I’ve replaced a modem in a few months… stupid Rogers… I should switch to Bell, they have their own cool customized modem unlike Rogers. 

Oh recently, I’ve also been obsessed with the song “The Saltwater Room” by Owl City.  The chorus is so nice *-* But overall, I find Owl City’s songs really nice to listen to though I admit I’m tired of “Fireflies”. 

I’m just being random and posting whatever I can just to fill in the void of my boredom.

A white block

Empty of emotion

Unknown meaning behind it’s purity…

Yeah sorry, I was a bit bored, so I decided to start my English homework brainstorming on my post.

and you know what? i don't really mind that it's entertaining. it's the fact that so many of you just use me for entertainment. oh, look, it's the girl with the glasses. let's go to her cage and watch her for a bit. i'd like to spend a day with her, cause she's just that FUN. you don't really like me. you're just amused of me. and maybe i shouldn't be complaining, because i've put myself into that position. i'm the one acting like i am. but, seriously? i'm not a silly hamster to be gawked at.

there's something still incredibly pathetic about teenagers. it just smacks me in the face everyday, and it's just so depressing. when am i gunna wake up to find people who aren't so impossibly superficial about a human being?

so yes. welcome, why hello. hi there. i hope you are well. ready for the show?

fuck y'all.

skip your class, we're going to a place i know, (i'll explain to you later)

it was raining a tiny bit today after school, and i was waiting for my dad to pick me up, so i started taking pictures. quite nervously, like i wanted it to be a secret. especially because people were walking past me from across the street, and this guy came out of his house to smoke. i had to abruptly get up from kneeling on the floor, and be all "i'm not taking pictures of the garbage on your driveway!"

i put together nine of the twenty i took this afternoon to show to whoever will witness this post. i didn't manage to take a few of each thing i found, most of them were just a kneel-quickly-press-the-button-and-stand-up-before-people-start-noticing-me kind of thing. my favourites are the pine cone one, and the one with the metal lid :D! all the pictures are really gray...

click the image to enlarge :)


from the top left corner:
1. a puddle. a tree was using it to look at its reflection.
2. a tree that was making friends with some green fluff.
3. two leaves having an intimate moment (which i suppose i intruded into).
4. pebbles, and something a person decided would be good to throw onto the road.
5. a pine cone taking a bath.
6. a bush trying to grab me.
7. a stick that i probably stepped on after taking that picture.
8. a crack in a wooden..telephone..pole. thing. i wonder what hides in there.
9. a portal on the floor (but i don't have the key...)

enjoy :D. hopefully my fellow photographer friend greenpotatochip will, at least o.o"

listening to piano 4 hands by winter gloves, hence the title of lyrics.

sunday secrets

when i was younger, i had the same haircut as half the boys in my class. i spent my senior kindergarten life protecting my little brother from the world of bullying, hygiene, and friend-making. now, he's judgmental, oblivious to mold, and he talks to random people on the bus.

when i was angry with my parents, i would make a poster for my door, telling them by their first name that they could not come in, finished off with a million exclamation marks just to show how serious i was. when i was mad at my brother or sister, i would pore salt on their beds and stick their treasured stuffed animals against the kitchen garbage bin.

there's something about getting ready for bed at night, and then not being able to fall asleep because you've reminded yourself about being eight years old. i suppose when i look at little kids, and get annoyed at the supposedly stupid things they say, i should probably be criticizing myself more. there's something incredibly pathetic about teenagers.

and here i am, as much of a teenager as i'll ever be. hoping to shave my head before i graduate university, hoping to be nicer to people without trying so hard, hoping to stop being so unbelievably superficial about everything i don't understand.

i think i talked a little too much to deezed last night, but i woke up at noon, so i still had almost nine hours sleep, ... i guess i've just drowned myself in the horrible realization that i hate being such a jerk to my parents. stupid hormones.

'3' one more year til i'm not exactly a teenager anymore! but i just wish i was eight again.

Fullmetal Alchemist

I’ve been watching Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood recently, and it’s exactly like the other anime except this one is apparently more “true” to the manga then the former.  I always get somewhat scared of the overall idea to Fullmetal Alchemist mainly because of the idea of human transmutation.

Brief Summary (not of the story but of their idea of alchemy):

Alchemy is basically chemistry (chemistry was basically considered alchemy in the medieval times).  In Fullmetal Alchemist, humans are able to use “transmutation circles” (drawings of a circle with different designs; looks like people with no art skills will never make it, EH?) to change the shape and forms (solid, gas, liquid) of things through manipulating the elements.  The idea behind it is equivalent exchange, one can not make something out of nothing.

So the idea that creeps me out like I said is trying this with humans.  One part of both series (episode 4 in Brotherhood) makes me the most sad and disgusted.  This episode is based on Shou Tucker, known "The Sewing-Life Alchemist."  He specializes with live subjects (animals; not with humans because that is an alchemy taboo) and we find out that to become a “State Alchemist” (a person who is apart of the military [this is a military dictatorship type government]; therefore allowed to do research on alchemy) he was able to create a chimera (a fusion between two or more living things) that was able to talk, however the only thing it said was, “I want to die” (shortly it died because it starved itself). 

So the main protagonists, Edward and Al, visit this guy to gather research and while there, they got close to his daughter, Nina Tucker and her dog , Alexander (they were SOOO CUTEEE) and find out Nina’s mother left two years before.  So Shou was close to his assessment date (basically the state come and collect his info; if nothing is good they fire him) and he didn’t have anything good.  However, on one of the protagonists visit, they find out he made another successful chimera that could talk.  When they see it, Shou tells the chimera to pronounce Edward’s name, and it did, but afterward it also said “onii-chan” (Japanese for older brother) and in an instant Edward was able to figure out how this happened.  Shou fused his own daughter and dog together (also revealing that two years before, to get into the military, he fused his own wife with another animal).  Strangely this idea creeps me out more than the idea that Edward and Al tried to revive their dead mother and Al ended up losing his body, Edward his right arm and left leg…

Although that is an extreme example, it somewhat reflects the craziness scientists have in their search for knowledge (bringing ToK in).  What is the limit?  When a human life is something you are fooling around with… but then again, if we can do this to animals, why are we any different?

PS, I’m sorry if it offended anyone ;P

Confused…

So I’m reading this manga, Immortal Regis, and it’s sequel, Cavalier Of The Abyss and I just had to mention it because it’s the most confusing manga (more correctly manwha) that I have ever read… I do not follow the story line at all and I don’t understand what’s going on… but for some strange reason I am still reading it none the less. 

Ever experienced that?  When you’re caught up in some form of media where you are lost but just can’t seem to give it up? 

It happens to me a lot in fantasy when all these cool things happen, but is so confusing because you don’t know exactly how it happened and then suddenly, something else happens without explanation as well…

On a different note, I’m sort of curious who actually reads the blog anymore, are our post just getting boring and old?  It doesn’t really matter because this is just for TEACUP’s amusement, but I’m still curious.

I was kind of wondering if we should also add vloging, at this point I’m sure that you all know who we are because of DeezedGangstaBriyani’s oh so obvious posts… but then again, vlogging seems kind of weird and we don’t always have much to say…

Late!

I’m usually always early for things (either that or on the dot).  I feel bad when I’m late and bad for them if they are (D:<).  What brought on this topic?  Well, TEACUP except (imNOTjohn D:) is going to PMall today (that really Asian one…) and I’m entirely ready two hours before the time I’m suppose to meet up with shewhosleepswithstars. So to kill time, I decided to write to you people.

Alright,tardiness, I don’t know about you guys, but I hate arriving late to anything.  When I do, I feel uncomfortable, like to some extent, I’d rather not go at all than be late.  TEACUP should know I have a habit of arriving pretty early (cheerio said I have a tendency to arrive an hour early and I pointed out it’s only because she’s always an hour late, of course an hour is overdramatic). 

At the same time, I also get mad when people are really late because I hate waiting alone (and without my iPod that is just torture).  I mean, I don’t mind if you are not there when I get there, because if I’m just early, I can’t expect people to be as early as me.  However, my patience can only last up till the designated time (because only then can I start blaming you for being late ;D). 

I note this is my first time actually applying my new name (if you want to know what it means, here’s a link: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=friendly+fire).

Pokémon

So lately, there has been a Pokémon craze sweeping the Weston nation.  Mainly because DeezedGangstaBriyani is a horrible student and doesn’t care about listening to his teachers… (somehow he still gets incredible marks…). 

Anyways, I remember the good old days when everyone was obsessed with Pokémon and now we just feel like there’s too many.  I mean, Pokémon is like a classic RPG and there are so many devotees and  pros in the Nintendo Pokémon game series… 

Personally, I never got that far… Every time I reached the cave where you had to use HM05 (Flash), I gave up… (well not really that only happened once or twice in my many times restarting the game…).  I never had the will to get any  of my Pokémon to level 100 and I kept being stupid and only leveling my starter which was killer when it came to gyms I’m weak to…

Anyways, I started playing Pokémon Fire Red on my iPod.  The main reason is because I got bored of my iPod Touch cause I do not have very great apps on it and decided since the iPod Touch/Phone can have a GBA emulator (NES, PS1, SNES, you have to admit the iPod Touch/Phone is pretty amazing) that I’d try getting it into my iPod.  I just beat Brock and apparently, I have to use HM05 already… (if only  I could get it…).  So I’m probably going to leave Pokémon alone for a bit…

I’m not a big fan in training Pokémon but they are fun to hunt ;D

Maggots

I remember when I was eight, my friend and I were playing in their backyard when her father decided to take out the trash.  We noticed at the bottom of the outdoor trashcan that there were maggots at the bottom.  My friend’s dad decided it would be funny to say, “That’s how rice looks like after you leave it in the garbage for a while.” 

It freaked the heck outta me and since then I had an irrational fear of maggots in rice… or if I leave rice alone for too long it’d turn into maggots…

Anyways, I have a lot of irrational fears but I’m not gunna expose all my fears to you stalkers just yet ;D

Well that way my little story for the day!

Hi :)

Dying From Starvation

Dear my millions of faithful readers,

               I have bad news to bring you. This may be my last post. I know what you’re thinking; “Oh no! The world will surely perish imNOTjohn without your posts”. However, I know I have taught you many lessons in these past few weeks. Please, take these life lessons with you and teach others. Spread my awesome words of wisdom!

              Why you ask, why does the awesome, epic and tall blogger have to go?! Well, I am only human. Being human leaves you many responsibilities such as breathing, blinking and eating.

             I am one of the laziest eaters alive. You give me too much, I’ll take an extremely long time to finish it. However, if you give me less, I will take the same amount of time. Therefore, it seems more productive in my head if I simply don’t eat sometimes but for the sake of this post, let us say I am stuck somewhere…

             Like the Sahara desert! I am dying from starvation in the Sahara desert! Why am I here? Well, I was flying on my magical carpet to India because I am a stereotypical racist and accidentally crashed into a crazy asian driver going 60 miles over the speed limit. I plunged into the sand and now, here I am, writing my last post before the sun sets and the wolves eat me alive.

          Please, do not forget me or my legacy as the leader of the TEACUP kingdom. I will forever be your king and not that other guy. GOOD BYE MY READERS. PARTING IS SUCH SWEET SARROW.

          Oh look dinner.

GREƎN FTW!!! =D

Story Time!

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na TEACUP!

*AHEM* 

The humble beginnings of our everyday heroes in TEACUP.

Once upon a time, in the land far away (not really it takes me 15 minutes to get there), there were seven individuals fighting for survival in a territory unknown to them, however these territories were renowned everywhere and known as “High schools.”  This specific one was named Weston Collegiate Institute.  Warriors would flock from all over the land to join the test of strength which we refer to as the Incredibly Busy Program.  All of the seven heroes had to go through the psychological test that was given* and had to experience their first attempt at a *gasp* FORMAL ESSAY!

We start the story with three people who call themselves, shewhosleepswithstars, CollateralDamage and Anonymous (damn iJohn had to change his name into something I can’t spell).  They knew each other since their younger days back in their home land, Beverley Heights.  As all their fellow peers did, they stuck with people they knew to survive the horrors, untrusting of people outside their village. 

The second pair formed was imNOTjohn and cheerio, which according to their recounts basically went “OH! We know each other!”  and hooked up… They were the knights from Humber Summit.

However, there was one loner who came from another village, West Humber.  He is known as DeezedGangstaBriyani.  Greenpotatochip was also from Beverley Heights, however, he was an outcast in their village along with the other “frenchies” so the three others didn’t really know him.  DeezedGangstaBriyani and Greenpotatochip were paired up for a quest** and got to know each other better and became partners.

Basically, TEACUP started out as three different groups. 

Occasionally, they were forced to separate for different courses of training and that is how shewhosleepswithstars got to know cheerio, in their study of the arts (of battle… no, it’s not that cool).  There was a wingman between them.  However it all started with the “eraser episode” where shewhosleepswithstars yelled dramatically that they share the same type of shield and caught cheerio’s attention.  Of course, since CollateralDamage stuck with shewhosleepswithstars, Anonymous with Collateral Damage and imNOTjohn with cheerio, they started to form a guild.

Soon after, during the studies of mathematics, shewhosleepswithstars decided to form a partnership for crime with DeezedGangstaBriyani (failed, but that’s because we all know they are heroes at heart <3) and that sparked their friendship.  Thus we repeat the last statement from the above paragraph plus “Greenpotatochip with DeezedGangstaBriyani.”

They all went on a trip to the local market in Yorkdale (I have very limited information in the conspirings since I did not attend) and realized they admire each other’s skills (VERY DEBATABLE, however, that’s the only way I could epically reason it).  Thus, they started have strategy meetings.  Thus the guild was officially formed.

However after ten months of rigorous training in the Incredibly Busy Program, Anonymous had left to improve his speed in the Speedy program. 

That still did not deter their friendship and in the summer of their second year (summer between grade 10 and 11), they got to know each other to a new extreme to the point where they considered themselves a unique group and thus, TEACUP was named.

Still, in the third year, due to locational difficulties, cheerio had to leave the Incredibly Busy program.  However, no worries, she is still keeping in shape, now fighting off mobs of fobs.

And thus the story continues…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Haha sorry guys, by the end I didn’t really know what to say by the end and my information was pretty limited, I don’t have great sources even though they were personal accounts…

My Views on Poetry

Roses are red
Violets are blue
the cliché beginning
Written just for you <3

With an obvious poem
Just “words that rhyme”
Without punctuation
Just endless lines

Poetry is fun
But “good” ones are boring
Who needs depth?
‘cause it gets me snoring

Isn’t this fun?
Just jokes and real plain
Poetry on the run
Who can complain?

Why spend countless hours
Reading 10 lines over again
Just to find meaning
Simply nod at the poem and say “amen”

Isn’t this more entertaining?
Then piling a million images into one?
Why stare at description?
When you can see the actual sun

Now let me free the nerds
Who find my view stupid
Cause I’m doing other things
Not finding the significance of cupid

Anyways, I was watching CTV and they showed a commercial of what’s going to happen in the next Oprah show and its about fashion in China.  So in the commercial it mentioned plastic surgery and the voiceover was “and why would people spend thousands of dollars to get their legs broken?” (or something like that), so I got curious.  I searched it on Google and found an article about it.  Basically they break your leg bones, put this metal thing between them and do stuff until your bone grows back (if it does).  I can’t even imagine the pain…  They do adjusting DAILY…  They spend a fortune and go through so much pain to gain a maximum 5cm in height… 

Although it sounds stupid it makes at least a bit sense why they want to.  Apparently height is a big thing in China, you might not get a career just because you’re too short… I don’t mean manual jobs, I mean you can’t even be a lawyer nor can you drive in some places if you’re not like 5ft3 or over…  Frankly, that is stupid and makes no sense. 

Asians are so superficial it’s sad.  Plastic surgery everywhere in Asia and now I hear we break bones, just great… Why are looks so valued (as CupCake2 pointed out, I shouldn’t be talking since I have braces… in a more nice way)?  What thinking drives you to be willing to spend thousands, go through months of pain, and the risks dangerous risks?  I get it if you were in an accident and want to restore yourself, but why go through such lengths to be more “pretty”?

It’s sad when society forces us to improve ourselves and become more pretty… 

I’ll go through my braces reasoning… I didn’t really want them but my mom insisted on them and I figured, there’s no life threatening risk, nor any deforming risks, so why not?  Although I hear it was painful, and it actually is, still it’s not that horrible…  It doesn’t take much time for the pain to go away and the pain only returns every few weeks after you get them tightened.  Anyways look wise, I had a really big overbite which with my small eyes, all you could notice were my weird teeth. 

I’m somewhat ashamed I gave into it actually…
