Once again, Ni hao!

Hola people! Okay... I know, I know, I haven't posted in like... two weeks? But I've been busy... and I still am busy, but I decided to take a quick break before I EXPLODE! Anyhow.... 中秋节快乐!!! Zhong Qiu Jie Kuai Le!!! That means "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival" in case you were wondering... which is today... Though, I haven't done much to celebrate it, since it's hard to celebrate the glory of the moon and the harvest time without eating any moon cakes or having to harvest anything... Though I probably should harvest my lost brain cells... sigh... if that even makes any sense?

I am loathing school at the moment... I swear that teachers believe that students are actually robots that are able to spend their whole lives doing homework without any kind of sleep or most importantly, A SOCIAL LIFE!!! UGh.... I am NOT happy right now... Math is making NO sense... and I've been working on it since... 4pm today and now it's 9pm. And I know I only have 7 more problems left, but it's just not clicking with me! I swear that I did the whole assignment wrong, but I am too tired to go and check... Sigh... when will this all end?!?!

So, I'll try not to keep going off on a negative note... Um... I sold my old Ipod Touch in order to get a new Ipod Touch 4G. My old one was 3G, so I think it was a good trade. :D Anyhow.... I'd better get going again on my stupid homework... I may just give up and work on it tomorrow at lunch... Sigh...

Oh yeah, I forgot if I ever mentioned that I was going to homecoming... yeah... should be... interesting... sigh....

With all my love... and frustration,
Nicholle

Just because...

Hello, I know, I know, I already posted for today, but my cousin has been begging and begging for me to post something about her... So... Yeah... Anyways... My cousin's name is Jesseca... and she is a 9th grader aka Freshmeat. And this post is for her. Hehe! You asked for it Seca. :D

Anyhow... I'm at my loverly grandparents' house, and have just consumed a delectable meal. She is the best cook ever! I love Chinese food!... though maybe that's cuz I'm Chinese (if you didn't know already...) And I am sooo glad that I don't have school tomorrow! YAY!!!

So, anyways, I'll see you all later... maybe I should start posting a favorite quote per post.... Here's my first one:

Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils ... - Louis Hector Berlioz

I'm Still Alive... I think...

Hello all! I'm just here to say, I'm still alive, if just barley. I've finally passed through my second week of school, and already it feels as if I've been there FOREVER! And even though it's a long weekend, I won't be doing much to enjoy it, due to the mass amount of homework I received... Sigh... Do teacher's think that we have nothing better to do with our lives? I swear, they expect me to spend every minute of my day doing school related things.

The only reason I'm still partly sane is mainly due to books. I finally read Mockingjay, and though It failed a little in my expectations, that was due to the fact that it was too short. It could have been totally better if we could of even had 100 more pages. Too bad Suzanne Collins has a 400 page limit for her books. I do still love the series, and I'm totally going to read Mockingjay again. :D

I also discovered a new series that I love! The first book is called Green Rider by Kristen Britain, and I fell in love with it as soon as I began. I'm too lazy to post my own synopsis so I'm going to post the one from the author's website:

"On her long journey home from school after a fight which will surely lead to her expulsion, Karigan G'ladheon ponders her future as she trudges through the immense forest called Green Cloak. But her thoughts are interrupted by the clattering of hooves as a galloping horse bursts from the woods, the rider slumped over his mount's neck, impaled by two black-shafted arrows. As the young man lies dying on the road, he tells Karigan that he is a Green Rider, one of the legendary messengers of the king, and that he bears a "life and death" message for King Zachary. He begs Karigan to carry his message, warning her not to read it, and when she reluctantly agrees, he makes her swear on his sword to complete his mission "for love of country." As he bestows upon her the golden winged-horse brooch which is the symbol of his office, he whispers on his dying breath, "Beware the shadow man..."

"Karigan's promise changes her life forever. Pursued by unknown assassins, following a path only her horse seems to know, and accompanied by the silent specter of the original messenger, she herself becomes a legendary Green Rider. Caught up in a world of deadly danger and complex magic, compelled by forces she cannot understand, Karigan

is hounded by dark beings bent on seeing that the message, and its reluctant carrier, never reach their destination."

So I finished all of the books within a week... probably not the best thing to do when I had so much homework... but It was a lot funner. :D I can't wait for the next book in the series to come out which is coming out on Feb. 1st. If you are curious about the series, the books are (in order) The Green Rider, The First Rider's Call, and The High King's Tomb.

Oh, I also got asked to Homecoming, but whether or not I'll go is the question... Jason, my swing partner from last year, was the one who asked me... He was also coincidentally my trek brother. I don't know... sigh... The situation's complicated for me, and I'm not going to put it on here for all to see.... But those who know me well will know my predicament. If you don't know, and curiosity is gnawing at your bones, feel free to email me or text.

Anyhow... I'd better go and help my mom... we have guests over... sigh... I just want some QUITE TIME! Is that too much to ask?
