My self-summary
Who am I? The girl who wears short skirt, knee-hi, glasses and pony
tails. ;)
I'm a girl that grew up in a small town in the Midwest. My ambition
took me to a larger city, also in the Midwest, but it didn't stop
there- which is why I'm here in the bay area ;)
I'm a girl that does graphic, web, interactive design. A girl that
designs and models clothing ;) So what do I enjoy? Writing, reading
graphic novels, visiting museums, art galleries/ events, fashion
shows, parks, beaches, mountains, lounging, coffee shops,
bookstores.
I'm the girl with a goofy mind and a sensitive heart. The one that
cries for sad movies, and gets scared at horror ones. I smile and
compliment strangers walking down the street. I'm also the one with
energy at 6AM in the morning as well as 11PM at night :). I have a
sweet tooth for dessert wine and treats.
I'm a girl who lives up to Patience, Persistent and Perspective!

What I'm doing with my life
As I find myself peaceful,...too peaceful in the city of Sioux
Falls, where my motivation reached no alertness, Minneapolis,
however, awaken my creativity and evoked my desire to imagine,
then, left it with no turns. Leaving the two unalike - similar
cities, I then met the city filled with artistic edges. The city
gave me the energy while teasing to take it away with its moodiness
at any time. So unpredictable with its weather, San Francisco gave
its people the challenge to always be prepare. As tiny of a city,
yet so beautifully diverse, San Francisco is comparable to a petite
lady with much strength and wisdom to offer her partner, therefore,
asked an equal quality in return.
As fortunate as I am to have lived and tasted the beauty of the 3
cities, I, at times, admired and envied of the people, like my
loved ones in SD and MN, for I do not have (or have lost?) the
ability to live in such simplicity of a life. As my desire of
reaching out grew, I have gained the ability to be ambitious, to be
strong willed about life, determine about needs, and...losing my
ability to settle, to be easily pleased and satisfied... It's a
win-lose, lose-win, or no lose-no win game?
I suddenly miss the saying, "Ignorance is a bliss"...
I'm really good at
- Walking under and watching the rain
- Being goofy and girly
- Getting away with acting childish
- Hugging trees
- Playing with pets and babies
- Drinking hot coco
- Eating bread
- Being clumsy and get my boo boo kissed
- Hearing a lullaby
and...
- Picking on the guy I like ;)
The first thing(s) people usually notice about me
It's about time I share my experiences of being a familiar face on
Market St... Fortunately for me, I haven't come across any negative
situations... Most are just amusingly strange... So here are the
things that happened in my past 2 yrs of being in SF...
- During a fire alarm @ school, we were standing outside the
building waiting, I was chatting w/ some girls, a strange man
stopped RITE INFRONT of me, and STARRED right at my face for a
while, my friends and I started to freak out a bit, then he spoke-
"You're so beautiful"... That was my first time getting a
compliment that almost made me pass out...literally... L0lz
- One time walking up the stairs from the Bart station, someone
walking down waved at me and asked "Excuse me Miss, do you know
where Beautiful Ave is?" I paused for a sec, errrrr, never heard of
it, so replied "No". He then smiled and said "You're beautiful!"
Hahaha, that made me laugh... Sweet, and strange
- A black female said "You look like Mulan"... "Hmp!" That was my
reply, hehehe, for I didn't know what else to say? Thank you?
- Another time at the bus stop, a man with headfones on kept
starring at me... I sat down on a bench and he slowly came
sat...right next to me and...starred at me from the side... Okay...
That was...strange, but I didn't wanna be rude and walk away- so I
waited for a bit, picked up the phone and walked away, calling my
best friend up, l0lz....
- On a bus, I had a man pat my shoulder from the back... I thought
it was someone I knew, so turned around- it was a complete
stranger! He started talking... Saying I'm attractive, asking if
I'm single, etc... I, of course said I'm taken, hahahah. He was
speaking so loud, and I tried to be nice but I'm sure others can
tell I was suffering, l0lz... Then he got off the bus before me,
and asked if I could give him a hug... Errrrrrrrrrrrrr, "No, I
don't give hugs. Sorry" L0lz.... The ride was a lot quieter
afterward
I walked down the st to school, a guy walked by and tried talking
to me- even though I had my headfones on, so he said "ur beautiful,
'n I just couldn't help but gotta tell you that" Awww, isnt that
swt? I smiled 'n thanked him. Then another min walking close by, he
said- "I know you hear this all the time, bcuz u really should be
told everyday that ur beautiful" L0lz... Now it's kinda amusing,
but it made me smile
Those so far are the strangest ones that happened to me on Market
St, beside the common things that I'm sure alot of people walking
on Market also experienced, like "Oh lala! Hi cutie! You're
gorgeous, got a bf?"...
So I have come to a conclusion: people in SF are sweet! For we
don't give enough compliments to others, but the bums on Market St
knows better, 'n no, I'm not just saying this bcuz I get so many
from them, but it's a big part of it, hehehe

us?"

forward.”

anything. What you feel only matters to you. It's what you do to
the people you say you love, that's what matters. It's the only
thing that counts."

soon?"
Shrek- "NO. Layers. Onions have layers. Ogres have layers. Onions
have layers. You get it? We both have layers."

The six things I could never do without
family 'n friends, music, computer, sewing machine 'n swt treats ;)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Another rainy season has come... Remembering when I first stepped
inside this city of love and romance, I, a fool of romance,
couldn't help but imagine what a beautiful love this city could
bring to people. Under the full colors of an umbrella, one could
breath in the air - its wetness. The ocean's breeze gives enough
chill for one body to move closer to another...
I, myself, imagined being in someone's arms, walking under the
freshness of drops, feeling the heat aside, knowing he really does
exists... Imagined myself revowing those 3 magical words in the
witness of rain fairy... Seeing my hands being held tightly in
another's... Feeling the love getting stronger and closer in the
beauty of nature... I, waited for the rain to come, to be with the
special person... I, found myself imagining the same love everytime
raining seasons starts...
In the city of such beauty and romance, how can one find the same
heartbeat when everyone's busy looking? ...

On a typical Friday night I am
Going out, doing homework, reading, eating...sleeping? :p :D
The most private thing I'm willing to admit here
Fate
"...is building a bridge of chances for the one you love"
Fate has brought you to me, but it didn't bring me to you, that's
why on this merry holiday, I'm sitting here, missing all those
times we've shared together
I miss our first kiss at the park, snuggling in the blanket,
sharing each other's warmth in a cold cloudy day..
I miss spending times at the coffee house with you, having you lean
over to give me a kiss at the window seat
I miss getting lost in your eyes, knowing you're only looking at me
and no one else...
I miss going to the chocolate factory with you and the movie we
watched at Berkeley that night
I miss being beside you, putting my hand in your pocket while we
walk
I miss sitting on the bus, resting my head on your shoulder, or the
time our eyes locked and our hands touched when you're sitting
across
I miss walking down the street to get bread with you on a
Sunday
I miss our last kiss at the front door, you said "give me a long
kiss that shows you wanna see me again"... 'N I did!
I miss...missing you everyday, waiting for the next time you hold
me close
But most of all, I miss us planning things together- sharing our
first kiss on NY's Eve, cooking at your place, going to Napa...
and... kissing each other in the rain
The first time we kissed, I never knew it was love at first sight..
‘Til you're no longer here, and this pain's chewing up my little
heart
You're gone, and I'm still left behind, trying to stand up but keep
falling down...
On another cold day, listening to Tamia singing "Almost", my heart
chokes...
"I cannot believe I let you go
Or what I should say I should've grabbed you up and never let you
go"
If fate has brought us together once, could it, once again, bring
you back to me?
You should message me if
When do we stop chasing one another? When do we stop and wait for
the other?
Move
Move
