Wow I just realized that I haven't updated in quite a while. Well things have been alright and now with a new year I'm hoping to fulfill some New Year's resolutions. And plus, January's an awesome month cuz my b-day's on the 26th so yay me! lol anyways I've been wanting a premium rapidshare account (i already have a megaupload one) but i'm broke after spending a fortune on Christmas presents for my friends and family. I found this cool way to earn some easy money to pay for it by using this method:

1) Sign up for a paypal account (www.paypal.com)

2) Sign up for a premier or business account

3) After creating a paypal account sign up to some of these sites (they're mostly sites that pay you to click on their ads but some pay you to take surveys or use their search engine):

I get my inspiration from everything around me whether it be nature and it's wonders or people around me that serve as my muses.

    I realized I never introduced myself officially (you know just in case anybody is curious which I'm sure no one is). My name's Anne. I'm 16 yrs old and am a Chinese/ Vietnamese - American residing here in California, USA. I'm a high school junior and all-around good student. My interests include kpop, jpop, cpop, jrock, alternative rock, indie rock, and metal (all types). I'm rather short haha standing a mere 5 ft tall and about 102 lbs last time I checked. I'm currently interested in foreign languages and cultural studies. Ugh SATs and ACT tests coming up. Boo hoo. Hopefully I'll get a satisfactory score. Anyways, where was I on my self-introduction? Oh I forgot to say that I'm a huge animal lover and I have a dog and a cat and snake. Love 'em all!
    Sadly today is 9/11. Today is a day of remembrance of the tragedy that occurred 6 yrs ago. I was 11 yrs old at the time and I was in my 5th grade class when the principal announced over the intercom that the Twin Towers had fallen and that we were under attack from terrorists. As an American I am deeply affected by this incident. It's like a slap in the face of what America stands for which is liberty and freedom for all. It is a day of great sorrow and mixed emotions from everyone. This is a day to remember the heroes who fell and it was a wake-up call to show us that not all of humanity has good intentions. People lost their lives, their loved ones, and their hope to the country they call home, a refuge that was not doubted. But nowadays it's hard to trust anyone and unity is something hard to achieve when everyone is watching their backs ready to attack the other if need be. *sigh* Well I've ranted enough about this topic. Tomorrow's a new day and comes with a refreshed state of mind. So three cheers to a new day!

oooh second entry on my LJ hehe. Anyways, it's the third day of school and I'm already getting used to the schedule. I miss summer already T.T. But that's okay cuz I like to go to school  to see my friends. Hmm...there's been some asshole prank calling my house for the past week or so and it freaks me out! He calls and when you answer all you hear are strange noises. My sister said she heard a strange sucking sound and I heard weird noises (voices?). I suspect this freak is the guy my mom's been having an affair with. It really annoys me and frightens me cuz I'm a little paranoid cuz it reminds of a horror movie and I don't wanna wait around until he comes crashing through my door and kills me *shivers* I'll be pissed off if he calls again and I'll threaten him that I'll call the police. But I should think of happy thoughts so it doesn't stress me out cuz I don't need that right now. Humph I had to go get a shot today, a vaccination shot. Ugh the pain. I got woozy afterward and fell asleep for an hour and a half. Shoot I still have homework to do. *sigh* I promised myself that this year I would stop procrastinating and really stay on task with school work and whatnot. I mean I'm a really good student and I mostly get A's and B's but I do badly in math T^T. No matter what efforts I put in it's like math seems to always defeat me but nevertheless I will push forward this year with an optimistic attitude and really not have that give-up attitude. This year has to be my 4.0 year cuz the past 2 years I've gotten 3.5 and above but I really need to step it up especially since this is my junior year in high school and I only have one more year left next year so that I can go to the university of my dreams. I also plan to study in a foreign country as well such as Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. I understand Mandarin so living in Taiwan would be no problem (I'm half chinese.) Living in Japan and Korea would be a great experience culture-wise. I love new experiences so this would make a good memory to have after experiencing it ^_^ Future goals : gain true happiness in life and really fulfill my dreams:]

oooh....I've never done any blog-type diary thing before so this is going to be a little awkward. I express myself but I don't write things down so who knows if I'll ever even write another entry again. But I feel like I'm babbling about rubbish lol. Anyways you can say this is like a test drive on my livejournal since I've never done anything on it other than to visit others' livejournals or comms to d/l from. It'd be a waste not to even use it once so here goes. Hopefully I'll write more and express myself and so on. I want to use this as a way to put down my thoughts and whatnot so as to not always keep it all in my head. Haha cuz I might go crazy and burst if I don't say it or write about it. Usually I'd tell someone close, a friend perhaps, or my sister about things that trouble me or a dilemma in life but I should write it down too. For what reason I don't know of at the moment but I'm sure it's important somehow. Hmm...it feels as if I'm talking nothing really so I guess that's it. Whoever reads this would have to be deathly bored or really really have nothing to do so enjoy!
