*bids tearful goodbye to two-and-a-half-year-old blog*


Don't worry, the new one looks nearly the same. 8D;;

Yup, it is 3.33am and I'm almost done setting up my new blog.


Will post the new link here soon (meaning sometime tomorrow), so stay tuned. (:

Mood: sad

Don't watch Super Junior Animal Farm.


DO NOT WATCH Super Junior Animal Farm.


That is, unless you want to watch Ryeowook adopt one of the most adorable puppies in the world, find out it has severe pneumonia, watch it rapidly deteriorate in health, do everything possible to protect it from the slightest cold, and then see it die. Bonus: You even get to see the puppy's carcass.


I am so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so depressed.


I am SO DEPRESSED.


And I kind of hate Eeteuk now for that one second where Ryeowook was trying to wrap the poor Ddabong in a warm towel and Eeteuk went and switched on the air-conditioning because he was feeling too hot. EVEN THOUGH Ryeowook told him not to, EVEN THOUGH Yesung told him the dog was not well, EVEN THOUGH Ryeowook went straight up to him, ignoring all sunbae-hoobae formalities, and told him to his face to switch it off. What did Eeteuk say? "It's so hot, just for a little while." And three days later the dog died. WTF. I EFFING HATE HIM. I have never been an uber animal rights campaign-y type person (I mean, I would just..keel over and die without my regular supply of meat), but how can anyone be so selfish and just so...self-absorbed? I hope Ddabong's doggy ghost haunts Eeteuk and his descendants for the rest of eternity. Either that, or that Eeteuk dies a horrible death at the jaws of a rabid canine. UGH. I have lost any respect I might have had for him as SuJu's leader, and it's all gone multiplefold to Ryeowook.

I need to go mourn a little dog's death now. And throw darts at Eeteuk's face on my wall. And figure out what to do about the gazillion conflicting comments I've gotten about my application essay. (If one person feels it's too A, and one person feels it's too opposite-of-A, does this mean I am safe leaving it as it is and assuming it's middleground A? I am beginning to see the logic in my mom's advice to limit the amount of people I send this thing to. I think pinkpau needs to add that to her article. MORE IS NOT BETTER.) EVERYONE, ADOPT A PUPPY TODAY.

Mood: satisfied

Busy, busy, busy, busy......

I just want to take this opportunity to thank Richmond Yau (...Jia Chng? What's his Chinese name again? D:) for introducing me to pinkpau's blog and her recent posts on applying to the US because she's helped SO MUCH. Looking through some of her posts (I'd always heard of her but never actually bothered to go read her blog, much the same way as I am with Xiaxue) I had the sneaking suspicion that this girl might be more similar to me than I'd have originally thought...and hey, I was right. (:

I never show my personal writing to anyone, even if it's for something dreadfully important or lifechanging - like my application essays last year, or my own ramblings, or the short stories I used to write in secondary school - and I probably wouldn't have decided to get my essay this year proofread if pinkpau (or maybe I should say Su Ann, yeah, we have similar names as well) hadn't mentioned the exact same thing in her blog:

"i'm the sort of person who never lets anyone read my personal writing (yes, weird i know, coming from someone who blogs publicly), even if it's for important things like essay writing competitions or college admissions. but when i wrote my first essay (the skirt one) and sent it to some of my very closest friends, i got such amazing critique that made my essay SO much better after i applied them. then i thought, hmm, maybe there's something to this proofreading thing after all! so i started sending out my essays to people to read. and i'm not exaggerating when i said that this is the best thing i did for myself. other people can contribute fresh perspectives that you've never even thought of, and also give you good suggestions on how to make your piece better."

So I stepped out of my comfort zone and sent my essay (written after changing topics at least twice, and discarding tons of well-written but not flow-suitable paragraphs) to a varied bunch of people for proofreading. (: The Lit bunch who are in the UK now, Malaysians who've moved to the US, Singaporeans, Bulgarians, my ex-editor...Yes, Su Ann was one of them, and she basically told me what I had suspected, that we're very similar people. Apparently she wrote on almost the exact same thing for her own Columbia essay. I also plucked up the courage to send it to my Cornell interviewer from last year (Chen Chow, who's really active in the Malaysian youth scene) and now we're going to be going for dinner next week! (: It turns out Chen Chow and Su Ann are writing a book on US apps together, so I guess the Malaysian US application scene is a crazy small world. I really hope more Malaysian students open their eyes to the US education scene in the years to come, because ask any employer right now, and they'll tell you what the few of us already know: the UK is going all the way down, Australia is coming up, and the US is the place to be.

Needless to say, the US is still my top choice despite all the trauma it gave me last year, but I am still really fine with the idea of going to Sydney. (: I'm basically trying not to get my hopes up (which is what I keep saying, but I'm such a horrible liar - either that, or I'm in extreme denial). Whatever happens, I'll be okay as long as I'm at a university that's right for me - it's time to grow up, Lynn, and embrace failure, and move on. (: Easier said than done, right? But hey, we've all got to start somewhere.


EDIT: I don't get it. Why is my blog a hotspot for porn ads?

Mood: rushed

The O'Briens WiFi download speed is GODLIKE. O_________________O

I just finished downloading a 250MB DBSK file in 10 minutes. The average download speed was 400KB/s O_O wtf. I need to go sneak into their back office and find out what plan and router they're using (I will shoot myself if it's Streamyx).

Oh, by the way, if you thought my naming obsession was bad. Eunhyuk and Eeteuk managed to convince this guy named Alex to name his kids Aladdin, Alfredo, Alpacino, and Alphabet. (￣_￣ i) Quote: "Alphabet sounds like a really good name to give a girl!" O RLY?


Poor kids.

*looks for more downloads to exploit WiFi with*


(Btw, I am considering starting a sekrut alter-ego blog once my university application hell period dies over. Don't ask why, because idk so I can't tell. I mean, not like I have enough material for one blog in the first place. Oh, and [insert offhand remark] I am once again applying to three countries for uni. I quote Miss Caroline. "Could your life get any more complicated? Because you're doing an awful good job at it.")


EDIT: OH. Wait. Best Engrish lyrics ever:

"Inside your shaking body
There spins my magic stick
(Magic stick)
I've felt the unbreakable limit of body shake
(Body shake)"

From Rain's comeback single Rainism. HAHA. 8DDDDD
