New Years Resolutions?

So the year 2009 is almost here and I've started to think what would I want to do with the year. I usually hate to make New Years Resolutions because I find them pointless since I think that if you want to do something with your life then you should do it for you, not because you made a Resolution about it, but for some reason this year I thought "Why not. It couldn't really hurt anything could it?" and I came up with some.

1) My first New Years Resolution is that I need to send "thank you" cards to the people who sent me gifts and cards this Christmas who I can't thank in person. My family and I always get cards from family who live far away from us so I can't see them in person, so I have to send a card or letter to send my thanks... That is if I actually sent them a card... In my 20 years of life, I can't remember a time where I have actually sent a "thank you" card to the people who deserved it. Saying that I've always wanted to and have thought about sending cards out, but I always forget and I become lazy and never do it. This year I hope to change that!

2) Secondly is just to keep my grades up. I have a nice GPA and I don't want to lose that since I've worked the hardest I've ever worked in school since coming to college. I want to make sure that I have the GPA requirements to stay in the honor society Phi Theta Kappa, and make sure that I can transfer to the universities I want to go to in the future.

3) Next I want to start eating better and working out more. I don't have that bad of a diet but I know it could be better. I need to start eating more veggies and stop eating a lot of junk food when there is better food to eat. Also for working out, I just need to do it more. I don't think I would ever join a gym, cuz I would hate to pay the fee and I don't know if I would really like being a gym member. I need to start running again, I know why I stopped and it's a stupid reason and it's another story for later. I plan to go on daily runs again.

4) My last Resolution is to move out of Arizona and move back to Oregon. I don't like the climate of Arizona at all. I just don't feel like at home here in Arizona. Oregon however is a different story. I lived there for about 13 to 14 years of my life and because of that I feel more tied to Oregon. Plus I love the rain and the cold.

Now who knows how many I will actually accomplish, but I hope I can complete them all. Some will be harder than others but I know I can do it. It's all comes down to that I actually do them, since I can be lazy and forgetful.

Anyways I hope all of you enjoyed 2008 for everything it brought to you and now lets all welcome 2009 with open arms, cuz it's not going anywhere for another year.

Tagged: 16 Factoids

So two of my friends on Facebook decided to tag me to do a answer session where I tell them 16 random facts that they might not know about. So I decided to do it here instead! Have a look into who I call "Me."

Tag 16: Rules: Make 16 random statements about yourself. Tag 16 people, including the one who tagged you. Got it?

1. I was bit by my own dog right around the eye. I was lucky that she didn't bite hard enough that I could have lost my eyesight in my left eye. I have the scars to prove it as well.

2. I love Twitter. Even though I don't have many people following me on the site I think it's just one of the coolest inventions for the internet. (I have 3 different Twitter apps on my iPod...)

3. I'm a big fan of the Wonder Girls, a South Korean girl group and Pandas. That's where I got the idea for my screen name, plus a video helped as well.

4. I still play Pokemon, even though not as much as I used to when I was younger. It's takes a long time collecting every single Pokemon without cheating, and that's why I like it cuz it's a game I'll be playing for a long time and still enjoy it. Water Pokemon are my favorite

5. I just found that Blogger/Blogspot says "Pokemon" is spelled correctly, yet "pokemon" is not... I find small stupid things like that interesting.

6. I used to collect stuffed animals. I still have like around 5-7 of the ones that mean the most to me and that I would want to past down to my children, but I used to have around the 200s-300s of them.

7. Speaking of stuffed animals, is it weird that I want to go to a "Build-a-Bear" and make a panda?

8. While I am Asian, I can not speak, write, or understand any form of Asian Language. I saw also raised by loving American parents so I don't know anything about my culture either.

9. I hate cars. While I don't mind driving them I really do not like using them if I can walk or travel without them. I will refuse a ride when I know I can get there by myself, even though it might that even longer too.

10. Portland, Oregon is my favorite city. To me the city just has the homey feeling that I love. I love the rain as well, so the city fits me well.

11. I love video games, plain and simple. I'm not a hardcore gamer and I'm not the best but I find it relaxing to just play.

12. I love superhero stories. I've always wanted to have superpowers and go save the world. Telekinesis would be my power!

13. I find Cherry Trees to be the most beautiful trees in the world. To watch them blossom... That's why Sakura/Cherry Blossoms are my favorite flower

14. I like to dance. I find it to be a fun way to express yourself and just have a good time. I don't like it when people say "I don't dance, or I can't dance." Everyone can dance, whether it's good or bad is not important. I see dancing as a fun art form

15. I have an idea of what my dream wedding would be, which is weird because I'm a guy and I don't think I get much say when it comes to planning a wedding :P. Anyways I just view at as beautiful and white, pure I guess you could say.

16. I have what I like to call a dual personality. When I'm around people I act a certain way, but when I'm alone or don't care what's going on then I change drastically, almost to the point of being cruel. It's like I cover myself with numbers of masks and I can change them at will. I don't know why, but it's one of the personality flaws that I have that I love the most about myself.

So there you go. I gave you a little look into what I call "me." It's every hard for me to talk about myself like this since I actually hate to do it, I rather just disappear or focus on another person. Anyways I think this Tag is official done!

Here is the video that pretty much inspired my Screen Name as said above:


(Also I have 4 Twitter apps on my iPod by the time this blog was finished. I need help...)

The Beginning of Something...

After a few days of looking over my "blog" if you could really call it that over at Myspace, all I saw was a teenage kid trying to get attention from his friends. Now that I look back on that I've thought to myself that I could do better than that. That I could create someplace more meaningful than "Look at me, I'm so emo sounding," so that's what I'm going to try and do with this new blog. I'm going to talk about things that interest me and actual thoughts I have about certain areas and stories I find around the interwebs (internet). Let's all hope this one doesn't suck as much as the last one!

I also want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas since today is Christmas eve. There is a reason why I started this blog on Christmas eve and that will be explained in tomorrow's post!
