Approximately 6:45 PM in Hawaii, Oahu had lost its power according to the spokesman of Hawaiian Electric Co. However, it wasn't till two hours later when the entire islands of Oahu has lost its power due to outage in the generators also. In reference to many of the Informational Websites, power outage had left outage in island's population of 900,000 people and thousands of tourists including vacationing President-elect Barack Obama.
By 6 o'clock in the morning,about 113,000 customer's power has been retored, mostly on the west side of the island. However, it's not till later the remaining of the island's population will gain back their power.
Gov. Linda Lingle has said that the utility will be taking one of the generator to Obama, elected-president's rented beach house, but was informed that he has had already 3 generators in position.
The outage seem to be caused by the thunderstorm little after sun has set, but thunderstorm soon calmed, leaving the island under dark.
As for me, I was in Ala Moana Shopping Center working on my part-time job. Around 7 O'clock we had our power out, leaving most of our customers under ruckus. By 7:45, we had most of our customers leave after their manual check outs and our managements had finally decided to close down the place. By 8 o'clock the employees were informed that we are able to leave after cleaning up some of the mess. Although it was a unconvinient experience, it's one of the 'happenings' that it seems to me as I can share with my co-workers.
Currently, I'm at post by my cell phone since the restaurant has still not gained back its power and I was informed that it's not till later on that we will be opening up again.
By 8:30 am, Hawaiian Electric has restored over half of Oahu. approximately at 179,000 of their 295,000 customers.
We seem to pay one of the most highest pays in electricity bills yet seems as if we also have most unreliable electrical grid in the nation. It is understandable that we are not connected to rest of the nation-wide grid, meaning no back-up system. However, a grid more resilient to minor problems would be very nice..
Yea I lost power around 7:30ish and I was watching a Japanese Drama on the computer and all of a sudden my screen went dark. Good thing I was using a laptop and the whole episode was loaded already lol. It was pitch black and it was so funny because 30min after everything went dark some people started to play a bunch of fireworks ^^. Since there was nothing much to do I ended up playing my DS for a bit and then went to bed kinda early. I tried to read a book but holding a flashlight while reading got annoying. I saw a lot of lightning but I did not hear thunder.
I was wondering if any malls and such went out because I know Pearlridge has a backup generator and so I was assuming that Ala Moana had one too. However, it seems as if even those were not working and everything really did completely black out. There was a Zippy's that still had power tho and my friend said that it was really busy over there. Well it is good that you were able to make it home safely. And lol you were updating this from your phone I probably would have done the same thing cept I don't know if I can use my phone to update xanga. If I had the iphone I could but I only have the itouch and that requires actual internet.
actually i didn use my phone to update a blog. i woke up early in the morning. exactly an hour after the power has come back, i was up online on my computer hoping to keep everyone updated in the time being. well i headed to work this morning and well, the water was still not running at islands, which delayed our openings. So the restaurant later opened up at 4 pm. the company must've lost lots of money.
Today is the 20th Christmas in my life. This may not be as important in one point, but in the other hand, it's 2 decades of history. Looking back at last 19 to 20 years of my life or at least up to the point where I could recall, it really had been a long journey for me. From an early childhood to teen-days and now into the entrance of twenties, I can't even point out when my major change was throughout my life.
As I see the end of 08' close by, if there's anything that I made up my minds on, it's probably how to take care of myself. For last several years of my life, I lived with regrets thinking pondering my course of life. As immature as I was, perhaps all I wanted to do was to stay as a teen or even as a child all my life. However, with a realization as with my maturization, I came up with my new year's resolution.
It would perhaps be to take care of myself. That in fact, to take a full control of myself. I've been putting aside of things that I did not favor and wasted last 20 years of my life. So it would really be helpful if I could at least take control of managing the time and the effor that I put in things whether it's on the studies or working or even on exercises.
There are lots of things that I have in mind, but it seems like I'm having a little trouble with organizing thoughts at late night. Perhaps this is a good time to close.
As for my next entry, we'll hope that it's well organized entry rather than a rant/blunt.
Np bout everything. And yea you will probably do better next semester. The first year is usually kinda hard for freshies cuz everything is new so you have to adjust.
Your new year's resolution is a good one and I am glad our gonna try and stick to it. Everyone on the inside wishes to remain a child even if they wont admit it because it was a time in your life when you could be so carefree about things. But yes we do have to grow up and be responsible for our actions. However, we should still keep a little of our child like personality with us because that is what keeps life enjoyable and fun ^^.
Anyways I hope your Christmas was a good one and that you got some things that you wanted. Soon I am gonna be leaving for my trip and the days seem to be getting shorter. I guess I better get as much fun out of the trip as I can cuz when I come back it is time for school and I am gonna have to start workin too lol ^^;
i hope you make the best out of this trip and have fun while spending your time there. And since we have our classes together whether you have gotten in the japanese class or not, I will hope to see you soon.. or eventually. :] thanx for the comments btw
So, today was the registration for 2009 Spring Semester for us, freshmens. I got the very last time which was 2pm of 2008, December 10th. Although i panicked and freaked out a bit, I am glad I was able to get all the classes that I planned to sign up for.
It was right after the last class of Japanese, so I hurried my brother to take me home to my laptop where I could register. As soon as i got to my computer, I soon found out that my computer was trying to work on its windows update. So w/o a choice, i ran downstairs onto my brother's computer. There were couple of episodes where i pressed on a different link and could have missed the time of registration. But I was able to get back to the add course screen by 1:59. So after plugging in all my classes, i pressed a button, but since there were all the other freshmens trying to sign up for classes, there were huge lags that was caused by heavy burden on the UH servers. So after about 20 minutes which was around 2:20-ish, i was able to find my next semester schedules up online.
So this next semester, I applied for 15 credits. And the classes consists of Chemistry 161, Chemistry 161 Lab, Japanese 102, Math 421, and Hawaiian Studies. Chemistry, Japanese and Math, they all have 4 credits respectively and Hawaiian studies w/ 3 credits. I'm hoping that this isn't a too much of a burden for me as i'm still a freshmen getting to know the whole college system and whatnot.
Hopefully my schedule wouldn't interfere with my working schedule, so i need to look out for that in the future sign ups. I hear lots of fellow students not getting their classes, but I can ensure you that there still are possibilities that you guys can override into the class as long as you get a contact with the professors and show up on the first day of the class in session. Tell professor that you would like to apply or override into the class, and they will tell you guys the next step to take.
Now that my classes are settled, i'm looking forward for my student career development advising. After taking survey, it pretty much tells you what your strength is and possible career or major. For full time students, it has the minimum pay of 20 dollars and i highly recommend to those who have not yet decided on their major or trying to find something else that you are more interested in.
So this is all for my entry :] good luck with you all on your finals.
Yea just tell me when you decide what to do with the site I would love to see it! ^^
Anyways I am glad that everything worked out and that you were able to get the classes that you wanted. I wish I could have gotten all the ones that I wanted -_-;. I would like to override but it was more a time conflict then a no more seats left thing. But so next year we have hawaiian studies together ^^. It is gonna be a long walk to the building. At least we can keep each other company on the journey lol. I think for you the only thing your gonna have to worry about is Chemistry and Math. Well actually your good in math you just have to get up for class .
i just found out that i did pretty bad on my final exams. so hopefully next semester will be much better. thanks for all the encouragements and also keepin up w/ me ^^
It's already been through a whole semester of college. Whether I have done well or not, it has come to the final week. Oh noes; the Finals. The classes that i thought would've been a cruise class, didn't really end up being the class of my thought and became ones that i struggle in.
Like in psychology, although it is pretty interesting, and easy to get through, i've noticed that once you fall behind, it'ss really hard to catch up. Chapters maybe a bit long, but as long as you follow up with daily readings, I believe it's much do-able. It's because of this class of which i could've finished and concentrate more on other classes, is holding me back at the moment.
Math. I highly recommend going to lecture classes. Although at first, everything seem a bit easy and not worth awhile, never judge too early. Through whole 4 mid-term exams, I was managed to do well on the first two. However, after not studying and being unattentive through 2nd half of the semester, failed to manage to get higher than a C - D grade. Uh-oh.. Hopefully it is still manageable to bring up my semester grade through Final Testings.
Japanese. Thanks to my teacher, it has been a pretty cruise class. Although i still haven't gotten down -Te and -Ta forms and such, her grading systems are awesome. I have oral/oral final/final exams coming up. This should be pretty interesting if not a cruise. Therefore, i'll continue to be in next following levels of japanese classes.
English. I haven't really gotten A's in any of my essays or assignments, but i would say her grading systems are pretty easy. Well if you are one of those people who are just dying to get an A, it may be a little bit harsh, but if you can settle for a B or anything lower than that, it's pretty awesome i should say. She jokes alot in class, so i think it was not too bad of a class to be in.
Overall, like any other classes, if you do your daily studyings, it's going to be a pretty cruise classes and if not, a failure on your forehead. Now it's time for me to go to school :] and.. also come up with schedules for the next semester. see you through my next entry!
For Psychology I had the same problem >< I figured that it wasn't gonna be too hard and that I could finish it fast but I ended up putting it off constantly. I am sure you are gonna pass it tho so don't worry d(-.^) And yea our Japanese teacher was really cool. I learned so much better from her than I did in my 3 years of trying to learn it from my teacher in high school. And having a 2 hour break before the class did help so I could study for the quizes lol. If you need help with te and ta form I can help you because I pretty much understand it, just ask me ok ^^. I thought it was really cool tho that are schedules were practically the same. Hanging out everyday was awesome and lots of fun ^^. Although you were evil a lot o(>.<o). Haha but I am gonna miss the hanging out. So we definately have to get the same Japanese class again next semester ok!
so my psychology, now i'm on my last chapter.. or 2nd to last.. idk.. although our last chapter was supposed to be around 17, i missed a class in the beginning of my classes, so i would have to pass chapter 5 also.. but i'm close.. so i am not worrying too much about it ^-^.. hopefully i would be able to pass by tomorrow.. or within this week.. :]
He has no idea why he's not popular among women.
This is a pretty big problem that most of "single men" have.
You have to figure out the problem and start out by solving them.
Problems could be as simple as, not being humorous, being timid, avoiding
eye contacts, etc...
2. Timidity
No women will just show up randomly and ask you out on a date. Women, in most cases, are more timid than men. There may be no guarantees that brave men will get the women, but one thing for sure! Timid men will definately not get ANY women.
3. Conversation
Unless you have the facial characteristics of celebrities or have talents, such as dancing, that is at pro status, if you are not good at building up conversations, you get a big "L" on your head. Learn to build up conversations.
There are lots of ways in doing this. One of the most recommended ways is to get a hold of your friend who is popular among women. "Not the ones who swears in every other words" Be around him/her and observe the way they talk.
Most important point in this is how they are bringing up the humor within themselves in order to carry on with their conversation.
&& Don't Ever Swear in front of women. Its a big No No!
4. Make eye contacts
Women will think guys who avoid eye contacts are not interested in them. Make eye contacts. Look into women's eyes and read their facial expressions. If you can't read their mind, you also can't win their heart. Look into their eyes and read their mind within their expressions.
Stop staring at their boobs, they will be stunned and a bit freaked out.
5. "I'll be the nicest boyfriend!"
First, You don't have to be the nicest man in Earth to get a women. Just treat her like no other.
You may be ready and have your mind set. But what you might not notice is that women can also read your minds by looking into your eyes. If you are shooting out a beam that says "I'm a freak", they will be a bit creeped out by you and do not want to be anywhere around you. Let's not be a little freak who beams out freakish eye contacts.
6. Empty your minds
Let me be straight forward. Newbies are weak in making decisions. You maybe brave and are good in making conversation, but women can see your black-heart by looking into your eyes.
You might look like a wolf aiming for a lone sheep.
Empty your mind and treat her comfortably. It will be much easier to get closer to her.
7. Key Points
Be a Man! There are guys who just can't go any further than being just as a friend. The reason for this is because they tried to stand as Neutral and not as a Man.
From time to time, you have to show women your manly sex appeals.
There are lots of ways to show that you are a real man. But making decision in the right time and leading in physical skinship may also be ones to consider.
Most important thing is the 'Timing' Right timing first comes from experiences, and secondly from grasping the person. (But don't be a pervert, Learn to reach out when the other person want.)
8. Don't be always in a favor to all women.
Who doesn't like kind men? But there's only one person that you should be kind to.
By being kind to others, you may leave a favorable impression, but you may also lose that impression from the person you want to win over.
Dating is an 1:1 battle. It's hard getting into a relationship if you try to win over multiple ppl's heart.
9. Too serious
Don't ever be too serious about relationship. meet up with the person lightly. if they back up, be patient and wait for them. if they come out, go out just a little bit more. If you follow them when they are backing up, you become a stalker.
Losen your shoulders and meet up with a person lightly. There eventually are going to be moments when you really have to be serious.
Until then, save up your seriousness.
10. Realize the difference in between Men & Women
If you really care, study. What's love and what makes complications. if you treat a woman jus like how you treat your guy friends, you may fall into a hole that you might not be able to come back out.
11. Build experiences & don't make same mistakes
If you want to get into a relationship, building experiences are your best options. To be very honest, even if I tell you all these stuff, if you haven't experienced these stuff it's all for nothing.
If you can't learn to share eye contacts and realize something from her two eyes, you are done for.
It's somewhat like riding a bicycle. One you get a hang of it, it's not too hard, but if you haven't had a chance to ride it, you have no idea how the whole thing works. Instead of reading the guide over and over, one experience in riding it may actually help more.
Now it's your turn to get out there and pimp out your skills :]
you have been writing a lot about.. relationship-heart warming stuffies.. ^^ hmm.. this kind of helped me too.. or well girls in general can learn from this too because then they will be able to tell more of what guys are thinking or doing based on the actions that they are taking.. and.. it lest people look at this situation in different perspectives to notice things too.. and at the same time.. this sounds so nice.. because the guy is trying hard because he cares about the girl he likes.. ^^
"&& Don't Ever Swear in front of women. Its a big No No!" <-- :D yay swearing is bad for you ^^!
well i guess that means i have no interest in ANY girls dat i meet because i know i swear alot T.T lol.. i just fail.. at relationship.. haha.. kinda sad.. like i know things for fact yet i just can't follow it myself T.T
See I told you that this entry does not sound weird ^^ You are good at writing these kinds of things Plus you put a lot of time and effort into it so that it sounds right. It is funny tho that you decided to make 11 instead of the usual 10 but thats what makes you unuiqe like I said ^^; btw I am still laughing at the funny music for the clock idk it is jus very random and interesting. I can't believe I didn't realize it was a clock before -_-;; Well whatever... I still think that one line that talks about beaming out freakish eye contacts was super funny lol Anyways... these blogs are good so don't worry about them sounding really weird to you because it always feels that way when a writer reads his/her own work. Good job on the blog (\^o^/)
yay jaeci! :] lol.. haha i like how you waited until someone else commented on my work then comment about how you were right.. haha.. but thanx anywayz ^-^.. i guess i AM good :] ROFL! and yeh. lol the clock thing.. turn off the sound thing -_- it gets a bit irritating afterwards.. BEAMING OUT FREAKISH EYE THINGGY IS FOR REALS!.. lol.. jus like how you always get the stalkers :].
To be honest, it took me hours in thinking whether this topic is humane to even deal with and if I chose to write it, how can I make this persuasive or just right. I think it's ironic how I thought of this topic whether or not it has anything to do with me.
I. First things first! What's most important?
When one starts to like a girl who already has a boyfriend.. These are the topics that you would most likely to get advised by your friends..
1) How's her relationship with her boyfriend? 2) So, there she is. Do you have any chance with her? 3) Let's pretend she's all yours. What are your plans? [What now?] 4) How will you be able to turn her heart? 5) What are the possible risk when fail? 6) Everyone's position in what's wrong and what's right.
However... There are things that are even more important than all of these above. I've asked couple of my friends about this topic and they had listed some of these topics on above, but like others, they are most likely to forget this major point.
Most important point is "desperation" And the 2nd one is "The confidence that you can make this person happier from where she is now"
Are you desperate enough, even to be truthful to your own emotion.. Or is it just because "she's pretty hot", "I feel lonely on weekends", or "What do I have to lose?" What I'm trying to say is that, Without desperation that she is the only one for you, there shouldn't even be a start. If this is where you are heading [w/o desperation], you are just being disrespectful to her.
With desperation, if you have what it takes to be the one*, try and think about Whether you have the ability to make her happier from where she is now. In fact, you may not even be sure of how her relationship is with her boyfriend, but the most important thing in this is the fact that you had taken this in consideration and had at least thought about it. Because your action is based on your thoughts and what you consider of.
With these two points, you don't take account of the damage that you get from failing. If you had already thought about pain received from failing, it means that you aren't "desperate".
when I take account of my past experiences, I would only have a fear that "this may be my only chance in seeing this girl" and not "What if I get rejected". That's the kind of desperation that we look for when in a relationship.
II. Questions without answers
Unless the girl speaks for herself that she's having a hard time with her boyfriend, you can't assume where she's standing in her relationship. As for examples, rumors or gossips that others say of her and her boyfriend's relationship are not valid.
Therefore, there is no real chance that you can calculate chances that this person will come to you.
III. Being a person she needs without having to burden
Are you desperate? Are you confidence? Then be a person who she must have, a person she needs.
IV. Trust
This is where trust comes in and your patience.
So you fullfilled her needs and became the person who she even left her boyfriend for. Should you be happy now?
The answer is 'No'.
Even if this girl may not remember, you do. She left her boyfriend for someone new. And your head is telling you that this can also happen to you. With this suspicion in your head, would you really be able to have the love of your life?
Suspicion and doubt are ways to failure.
So, you need trust and patience.
V. DONZO!
To be straight forward, its your desperation towards the girl you like, and patience for the right timing that will lead you to success. If you can't do these two things, I would rather have you tell me that you are giving up.
Ps. I personally thought this blog entry would turn out to be way much more better than what it had actually came out to be. But.. I gues not..
One late night, I came across reading one of my ol' best buddy's blog which dealt with his first crush. A really long blog entry that just kept me reading. Although I knew it was time for be to hit the hay, I was still up on by the computer, thinking about MY* first crush. I gave it a thought, up to the point where time went beyond when I had been thinking was the first time I had a first crush. More likely, a first love. Because it was at an age where you don't quite remember what really happened and not know for sure if that was the feeling that you had, I still felt a bit confused.
Everyone that I know, remembers and thinks that I had my very first crush during middle school if not in elementary when I first moved to Hawaii. But there's a little history to where I left off. I should say, a time when no one here knows what I've been through and been doing. Because it was such a long time ago, I too don't remember much.
It all took place in Korea. When I just started elementary school. I predict it to be around the year 1994-5. I met a girl who lived not too far away from where I lived. She was a cute little girl who had a smile of an angel (Maybe this is why I started to like girls with nice smiles; I mean who wouldn't). I recall being a normal kid who wasn't as smart nor as athletic at the time. As few girls might have liked me, I wasn't much interested in girls either. As I spent same old normal days through elementary, I met her through group of friends and somehow, we both started to share this common feeling for one another. Everytime i needed to be in a group, i was in with her and wasn't afraid to be teased that I was grouped with a girl.
Whether you believe it or not, the first girl i liked, liked me back. It's really hard to have that all worked out. However, because as shy as I've been all my life, I wasn't able to ask her out, and we never really had a chance to be a couple (but most of the class noticed that we liked each other).
There was also this time when I didn't do my homework and the teacher was punishing us. I am not sure whether our teacher was trying to punish me and my fellow slackers or the girls, but after she's stick a piece of tape onto our faces, she made the chosen girls to take the tapes off of us with their lips. I really had nothing to lose (and thought i should do this more often). But was it a faith? the girl of my first crush was the chosen girl for me. As others screamed in pain of having their tapes taken off of their face by the girls whom i thought was "eww", I stood there with a tiny smile. The girl's small lips came onto my face. As her lips touched my cheeks, i thought a volt of electricity went through my entire body. She missed a couple time (although i'm not sure if that was such a hard thing to do). After her second try, she finally got the tape off and we were both sent back to our assigned seats. With a smile on my face, I spent the rest of the day in a good mood.
However, our time together didn't last very long. After a Good year or two, my parents had decided to immigrate to US. To Hawaii to be exact. As a little kid who thought he was going on a small trip, wasn't able to say good-bye to his first crush, first love. And time passed on. fourth grade, fifth grade... I did meet lots of other girls here and learned the language that i never spoke before and the memory of her slowly faded.
On the year of 2002, my entire family took a trip back to Korea. It was amazing how my mother was still in contact with all the parents of my old friends. And we all met up again. As little more grown up. And there she was. The girl who taught me the feeling of butterflies in stomach. But, things didn't go too well with our relationship. As time has made everything awkward, i wasn't able to talk to her much. I was even too shy to ask her how she was. Just like that, a month in Korea passed by and I left my home country once more.
Then, the memory of her faded again under time...
elementary, intermediate, high school. Even through these 3 stages in my life, I buried her under my heart and never brought her up. And now in college, as a 19 year old grown up mature adult, I dare myself to bring her up in my head...
As she is my very first crush... my very first love...
This entry is so cute ^^ I can tell you had a lot of feelings for this girl. I told you that you have a nice side to you. If you were always an evil person you would not be able to have these kinds of feelings nor express it in the manner you have And so she will go on the list of the few ppl who have seen your really nice side haha even tho it was when you were young. Especially since you said that you were too shy to ask her things I am sure you were not spending those few moments constantly insulting her lol. I am sure if you just were yourself around her and not try to cover yourself up to look "cool" you could have found many things to talk about ^^; Sometimes you just have to take a deep breath clear your mind and go with the flow. Anyways sorry for the long comment. I have been meaning to comment on this one... well actually all your blogs soooo expect more comments soon and I will be expecting more blogs haha.
heh, although this was somewhat unexpected, i really like your comments ^^ thank you. well i guess that's just how all first crushes are, you jus feel shy and nervous just by seeing that person and feel the butterflies in your stomach :].. well i don't think i've ever tried to look or act "cool" in front of ppl just to impress them ^^. I guess it's good that i always try to be myself and maybe time to time.. be able to just be chilled :]
So, Boa has done it again. Her agency had released on Boa's new music video, 'Eat You Up'. I must say, I'm quite impressed with what they had done with her, especially her dancing. It's probably well-known to everyone that she's a great singer, but also a great dancer. It was just a matter of time she came under the US market. She has been showing great success stories throughout Asia and hopefully she will do well in new challenges. 'Eat You Up' has previously been developed through two versions, for Asian & US, but I believe the 2nd version of her music video didn't show much of an effort. I started to question if the agency hasn't started being so cheap with her. Anyways, I wish her a great success, and enjoy the song guys :]
Hm... yea I was not expecting the song to be completely in English ^^;;. And now that I have listened to it I like the song. I do agree that the US verson music video is not as good. At first I thought since you were talking about the US version and the Asian one that one of the two videos you put up was the US one and the other was the Asian one. But after I watched the first video and started to watch the other one I was like "Wait... it is the same music video lol"
yeh she just released her new album in America.. I think.. lol actually i'm not really sure but i think that's what it is.. haha.. ^^;; im glad you like the song though ^-^.. hopefully i'd be able to find more videos && songs that might catch ppls interest ^^
With an interest to Web Applications & programming, over last couple of weeks, i had looked into C++ and VB codes and often found great codes that i could be using one day. However, was my passion too weak? i could not go beyond scrapping codes. I needed inspiration. Only thing i could possibly do, other than scrapping was probably making websites. A website that could continuously remind me what i was trying to do. So i did...
Above image is one of the sites i made. Guruin. Guru means an intellectual or spiritual guide or leader. Also, any person who counsels or advises; mentor or a leader in a particular field. With various of codes that this site can provide to future programmers, Guruin was opened.
http://guruin.com
This is the new banner which was designed during my Math Lecture class in UHM. One morning, an idea popped up on my head. What if i jus simply connected the letters into one word without the spaces in between? and so i did. :] it worked better than i had imagined. Although the 1st and 2nd U's were embedded in between letters, it actually looked pretty good. but it was still somewhat empty. So i added in a huge [dot] and [com] :]. And taha~.
I will continuously update the codes that i come across and i hope it will help not only for me, but others who are interested in this field as well. If you are really interest in something and can't really afford to get a tutor or cram places where you could learn these techniques or skills, i recommend you try to learn it on your own through internet :]. it jus may worth your time :]
wow this site is so nice ^^ but since.. it's all in korean.. and i don't know really understand what the site is actually for.. lol.. then.. >.<.. lol :D but it's still good that you are still making websites like you did before ^^ i still want to be able to make.. like.. how your top part of your website is.. like.. some kind of drawing paint thingy.. with brushes and stuffies.. but it's so hard.. and i don't have the greatest imagination to come up with putting stuffies into it.. haha.. >.<
haha thanks ^-^.. its been awhile since i made something the last time.. and i should say i haven't had much time to myself to be able to make anything.. but since its more of a cruise after the midterms and everything.. i think i have more of a free time for little hobbies. well if you keep practicing and start from the very beginning, you'd be able to make things too :]. just like how you are managing on your myspace layouts and such :] keep up the good work!
Lol I am glad you like me leaving comments on all of your blogs. It is my mission to do every blog eventually ^^. Anyways I remember you telling me about this site. So I went to go try and visit it again but I came to find out that the site is not working no more. Did ya shut it down or something? I mean I can't read the site but I am sure it was helpful to people. It looked really nice lol. I was thinkin about finding a page translator to see if it would work or not ^^;. Hm... you should try and make your xanga look really unique or something since xanga was always easy to toy with. When you have the time tho. Don't stay up till 5am doing it you dork!
yeh actually now im just thinking of something to make, and probably will be using this domain just for profit use. I'll let you know though the next time i make something.. ^^;
For today's blog entry, I'm going to introduce to you, a few Korean Music Videos or Songs those I find very addictive. There are redundant parts where they kept repeating the lyrics, and I happened to find them very addictive in most parts. So here are the videos
Haha you and your Korean music. Lol. Your always showing me Korean music. But I wont lie I usually end up liking them haha. These songs are pretty cool. I really like the wonder girls one the best I think. But the other ones are pretty cool also. The Wonder girls one is kinda stuck in my head now ^^. Which reminds me I haven't listened to the flowerpot song for a bit I think I am gonna listen to it right now. Lol.
lol i like how you go all over the blog leaving comments on every single entries.. thanks :] lol.. i just got home from work and i guess i found myself something to do ^^;; heh~
Leave your greetings here.

By 8:30 am, Hawaiian Electric has restored over half of Oahu. approximately at 179,000 of their 295,000 customers.
We seem to pay one of the most highest pays in electricity bills yet seems as if we also have most unreliable electrical grid in the nation. It is understandable that we are not connected to rest of the nation-wide grid, meaning no back-up system. However, a grid more resilient to minor problems would be very nice..

Yea I lost power around 7:30ish and I was watching a Japanese Drama on the computer and all of a sudden my screen went dark. Good thing I was using a laptop and the whole episode was loaded already lol. It was pitch black and it was so funny because 30min after everything went dark some people started to play a bunch of fireworks ^^. Since there was nothing much to do I ended up playing my DS for a bit and then went to bed kinda early. I tried to read a book but holding a flashlight while reading got annoying. I saw a lot of lightning but I did not hear thunder.
I was wondering if any malls and such went out because I know Pearlridge has a backup generator and so I was assuming that Ala Moana had one too. However, it seems as if even those were not working and everything really did completely black out. There was a Zippy's that still had power tho and my friend said that it was really busy over there. Well it is good that you were able to make it home safely. And lol you were updating this from your phone I probably would have done the same thing cept I don't know if I can use my phone to update xanga. If I had the iphone I could but I only have the itouch and that requires actual internet.

actually i didn use my phone to update a blog. i woke up early in the morning. exactly an hour after the power has come back, i was up online on my computer hoping to keep everyone updated in the time being. well i headed to work this morning and well, the water was still not running at islands, which delayed our openings. So the restaurant later opened up at 4 pm. the company must've lost lots of money.
