Hunger Game Review

Word of the day:
contingent

On Friday, I finally watched the Hunger Games. Yess! (It got postphoned twice)
The movie was more than 2 hours. 142minutes! to be exact.
But I didn't mind because all good movies are supposed to be long. Yasmin quoted "If it included everything from the book, I won't mind watching a 6 hour movie."
The movie was surprisingly accurate to the book!
Well right, they didn't show the whole chunk of Katniss and Gayle together, and how they met and what they talked about. They also, according to Yasmin, missed the whole thing about Peeta's armer and the face of the dogs in the very last scene of the hunger games.

Lists of small things that the movie bugged me
1. I expected Cinna to be more charismatic.
2. There was supposed to have a make up artist with green skin.
3. Peeta looked too old and too well built. He was supposed to be the baker guy! Bakers are not supposed to look hot. They should be a bit fattish and stuff.
4. First 15 minutes of the film was soooo shaky!! I was thinking "What the hell, does the camera guy have the Parkinson's disease."
5. The first dress of the "girl on fire" had horrible CG. It looked too fake.... and it wasn't wild and flamming-ish like I had imaged.
6. President Rose looked like the KFC grandpa... He didn't look mean at all. AND!!! THE ROSEEE
THEY FORGOT THE ROSES!!!!! A;SLKDFJ;ALDSKFJA;DLSKFJ;ASLDKFJA;SDKFLJ
WELL YEAH, HE HAD A ROSE PIN ON. BUT I DON'T THINK PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T READ THE BOOK BUT WATCHED THE MOVIE REALIZED HIS PASSION TOWARD ROSESSSSSS ;(

The best part was during the game.
The action was great and woahhhh I loved it.
Especially the part when the game makers creates stuff on their white computer screen thingy. I don't remember that been mentioned in the book but was cool.

I now can't wait for the second movie because the second is ze BESTT
and the third one of course! But the last is a bit different...not much 'action' but a lot of talking.

Oh funny things:
I nearly died laughing when I saw Carrot's face expressing his urgent-ness to the bathroom.


When Yasmin
muttered "Simbaa" to Carrot. The scene was when Peeta smuged blood on Katniss's face. In the Lion King movie, they do that too. The blue monkey guy does it to the new born cub.

YOU SEE!? IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME LOL
RIGHT ABOVE THE EYE BROW  

This is the blue monkey guy....

Google's reaction when the Coyotes suddenly jumped from nowhere. I also nearly screamed out of surprise but hahahahahh oh Google. He looked really terrified. I must not bring him to movies that are above PG-13. 

He quoted "I nearly pissed myself" and then when he wasn't there, Carrott made an imitation of what he could have done. omg, I was tearing up.lol

That awkward moment when you realize there are like 20 students from your school at the cinema.

Google choosing Jelly Beans. I swear, I've never seen anyone putting that much effort into selecting them. 

They all taste the same... so why bother to choose all the flavours...(that's only my opinion)

Oh! another awkward moment I made... (omg I feel so bad now.. but whatever)

So, there were two students from our school. One girl and one boy. They were outside together and I was surprised to see them together. By seeing them together, I assumed that they were on a date... and then.. I asked a question that made them both feel... uncomfortable...

I asked.. "So you two came together?"

and then they both were talking at the same time in a loud voice shaking their head right and left how they came with a group and everyone left except them... 

bahahahhahahah it was hilarious because when I asked that, they suddenly made distances between them stammering "No, No, No"

ahhahahahhahah

I am sorry for that akwss question but you guys did look like a couple.. and I mean.. you two have similar like..interests and all. 

Anyways, Hungergames foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr♥

TELL ME THAT HE IS TOO HOT TO BE the son of a baker
OMG THAT SMILE ♥

that sentence stopped my heart for 0.000000001 sec ♥   ♥   ♥  ♥

asldfj;alkdsfj;aldskfj;asldkfj;adslkfja;dsj
STOPPED MY HEART AGAIN. THIS TIME, 0.1 SEC. 

NOW, WHAT I DON'T GET. 

IF SOMEONE SAID THAT TO ME, MY FACE WON'T BE 

 

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN 

STRAIGHT AWAY

♥

 

Spring break please hurry up.

Please, I am ridiculously tired of school. 

Mamma Mia Reviewww

It's weird to write a post after not writing it for like few days...
I went to Mamma Mia again for the second time :P but I went there like 30 minutes before it finished
I just couldn't get over the finale
So I went there to watch only the finale.
I was standing then ended up sitting down laughing
I love their costume and like everything about it
It's legit entertainment.
But when Rodrigo jumped with that... 10cm... high heels.. it gave me a shudder..
He really doesn't know the dangers of high heels...lol

overall, I loved it ♥


THIS WAS MY FAVOURITE PART

sorry the video is side ways. 

Sorry for the shaky-ness, I couldn't stop laughing it was adorableeeeeeeeeeeee

BEST MOMENT OF MY LIFEEEE

Yes. It's a minute before the dead line.
And yes, that requires skill.
And right, that means I get 10 extra credit.
Well yep, I might get 110% in this assignment.
But nah, I will screammmmmmmm if I get over 84

Worst Algebra 2 class everrr

Today's this female came to substitute for Mrs. Wescott.

She has a brittish accent and is a bit curvy. She also has brown hair and... writes letter 'F' weird. It looks like a L. I don't think she knows how to teach math.

I hate her shoes....it's black... looks like it's for grandmothers.

Appearenlty, the last time she taught Algebra was 3 or 4 years ago.

She also says she got a headache the moment she came into our math class room.

I think that's mean!

I mean that's saying math makes her sick!

She made this face (below)

now she's gone to the nurse.

I want to get a drink from the cafe.

Joy Luck Club book fav.parts

1. “The moon lady! The Moon Lady!” I said, jumping up and down with great delight.

2. “What is a secret wish?”

“It is what you want but cannot ask,” said Amah.

“Why can’t I ask?”

“This is because… because if you ask it…it is no longer a wish but a selfish desire,” said Amah “Haven’t I taught you-that it is wrong to think of your own needs? A girl can never ask, only listen.”

3.“That night, after Popo told me this, I sat by the pond, looking into the water. And because I was so weak I began to cry. Then I saw this turtle swimming to the top and his beak was eating my tears as soon as they touched the water. He ate them quickly, five, six, seven tears, then climbed out of the pond, crawled onto a smooth rock and began to speak.

The turtle said, ‘I have eaten your tears, and this is why I know your misery. But I must warn you. If you cry, your life will always be sad.’

Then the turtle opened his beak and out poured five, six, seven pearly eggs. The eggs broke open and from them emerged seven pearly eggs. The eggs broke open and from them emerged seven birds, who immediately began to chatter and sing. I knew from their snow-white bellies and pretty voices that they were magpies, birds of joy. These birds bent their beaks to the pond and began to drink greedily. And when I reached out my hand to capture one, they all rose up, beat their black wings in my face and flew up into the air, laughing.

‘Now you see’, said the turtle, drifting back into the pond, ‘why it is useless to cry. Your tears do not wash away your sorrows. They feed someone else’s joy. And that is why you must learn to swallow your own tears.’”

4. A psychiatrist does not want you to wake up. He tells you to dream some more, to find the pond and pour more tears into it, and really, he is just another bird drinking from your misery.

5.I brushed my hair ninety-nine times a night to bring luck to your marital bed, in hopes of conceiving a son.

ewww hate sex education

I didn't know condom was oily... ewlkfja;sffen

Zombie Kids!

I find this hilarious. I painted it. They are digging to find corpse when they are actually digging potatoes.. lol

I am going to be 16 in three days.

I hope everyone who is reading this post know that it's my birthday in THREE days :)

Although my birthday isn't today, our family went out to dinner and ate. ate.ate.

Eating is my favourite thing to do.

Then, my mother surprisingly asked what I want for my birthday gift. Okay, that might be a normal question for your parents to ask. BUT. to me, that is not usual. For the past 16 years of living, I don't remember my parents asking me that question. So without hesitation, I asked for an earphone. I broke mine after using it for a year..the wire..got cut...

Anyways, I don't think my parents knew earphones costs more than 200NIS because she said yes too, without hesitation. LOL.

I went to BUGS and first chose skull candy with Paul Frank edition. But it looked so.. cheap

Then the shop guy came to me and suggested an AKG one.

From the price difference of 200NIS, I decided to chose ARG.

The earphone costed similar to the cost of our dinner lol

the blue one!! :D

Probably the most expensive ear phone I have bought in my life.

399

There were beats. But I think they are purely fashion item. And, it's one of those item you buy to show off you can afford one.

Why I hate sickle's class

*I wrote the draft of this post during history class yesterday lol

OKAY. HOW STUPID CAN 10TH GRADERS BE?

Mr.Sickle spent the whole class yesterday explaining bibliography. I can't understand why 10^th graders have to be taught on how to cite. I mean, OMF***, it's only citing! And we are 17! Can't students just search on the web and learn by themself? I hate sickle for giving a lecture on citing instead of renaissance, which is way more interesting.

That is what I don't like about Mr. Sickle's class. We often don't focus on actual history. Today, we talked about citation. Last last, we talked about what a good diplomat needs. We spent precious 20 minutes on that. WTF. Those are additional information! I don't get why he doesn't focus on actual history. Please, sickle, stick to your history, not on small stories of yours and jokes. I swear, I don't remember learning actual history. 95% I felt like I learned nothing when I walk outside his class. We never got to cover what we read for homework. To be honest, I don't like Sickle as a teacher much. I prefer him as a person, a guy I just know at school, like Mr. Wassupman. Maya used to like him until he became her English teacher. Also, another reason why I HATE HISTORY is because of few students who asks stupid questions. DONT ASK QUESTIONS IF IT IS NOT IMPORTANT. ASK THOSE AFTER CLASS. DON'T WASTE OTHER PPL'S TIME. I hate those who ask. I can bear questions, but OMFG, someone in my class asked at least 10 questions in 5 minutes about where to put a period when citing. F3UK. WHY CAN'T YOU ASK HIM AFTER CLASS? I HATE HISTORY CLASS.

So 5 minutes before 3, I went outside to the bathroom to continue writing my draft for my blog. I went out although I only had 5 minutes till end because I couldn’t handle Mr.S and his lectures on THE DAMN CITIATION WHICH I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY STUDENTS DON'T GET.I want to ask ppl how old they are.

There really are times when I think to myself, 'Should I tell Mr. Sickle to not get off topic?'

Once I did. And that was actually the first time for me to not hear his little life stories.

Here are few information I know about him because he talks A.LOT.ABOUT HIS LIFE.

1. He is married to a Jewish wife

2. He went to at least 3 universities in including H.Univ

3. He lives at a luxury apartment in T.A (I even know the name lol because he talks about his life a lot in class)

4. He used to work for the government in America

5. He taught orphans in Nepal... somewhere really poor in Asia

6. He doesn't speak fluent Hebrew. (I thought he did)

7. He played American football

8. He tried to learn Japanese

9. He. KNOWS. EVERYTHING.

1. That is scary.

Anyway, my point is that I think Mr. S talks too much about things that are not directly related to the theme we read for homework. I also hate him for making us bring our textbook. In our history class history, I remember using the textbook 5 times since August. The textbook weighs around a kg. I.Hate.Him. For making us carry to school. Why do we even bring them if we don't talk about the readings we did during class? That's what I hate about the American system. Teachers tend to not teach students directly. They make us learn ourselves by them giving out ideas and doing activities somehow similar to the topic. One major difference between Korean education and American, is that in Korea, I always would feel I learned something new everyday. But. HUH? I NEVER HAD THAT FEELING EXCEPT MATH FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS IN AIS.

This is what I personally feel like.

Math Actually learn something but don't give any challenging questions.

Art NA

French I learn tiny and forget it the moment I leave class. Doesn't explain well on basic.

History Learn practically nothing in class. I have to learn everything by myself by reading nearly 20 pages everyday and getting a hard test which Sickle didn't teach us well.

PE The only class that is good. Hate danny.

English Also learn nothing in that class except reading books. Last year, I learned vocab words. This year, I learned really nothing. I am sorry.

Chemistry A class I am starting to hate very much.

So you see, my parents pay few thousand dollars for this.

I HATE AMERICAN SYSTEM. American's don't teach by giving information. They expect us to learn the material ourselves in a magical way.

Example: When I think of English class, I think of grammars and vocabularies. But today, we practiced how to outline an argument paper. -.-

What a time consuming pointless work? I hate those... pointless... lectures and classes!

My ideal English class would be:

1. Writing a lot to improve our skill

2. Learning new vocabulary and practicing SAT questions every class

3. Learning Latin

4. Learning cursive

5. Teaching handwriting to guys. PLEASE T_T

6. Grammar

I think the time has come to write another teacher report cards.

Maybe in few days.

Hate.Hate.Hate.

and the most dreadful personality. Blonds are all the same.

If you don't know

K, for those who doesn't know when my birthday is, it's on the 20th of March.

And, if you are wondering what to buy for me, don't hesitate and buy me this bag from Pull&Bear.

It's only 170♥

I went to the supermarket few days ago, and found a
new 5 gum! At first glance, I swear I thought it was a period taste.
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE IMAGE OF THE PACKET. I mean what the? that's blood drops! Ewww. I don't remember what the flavour was called, but I don't want to try it. Only the mint one tastes good. The watermelon and orangey thing are bad.

I lost one pair of contact lenses. ;(

If you don't want to buy me a bag, you can buy any one of these for me. 

lol yep, I know.

I must earn money somehow. 

I might get a babysitting job in Spring break!:D

Two days ago, we had our first sex education class. Obviously, everyone was super excited and could't wait for the class. Mrs.L first asked when we should have sex. 96% of the class said we should have it when you know your partner and yourself are ready. I wrote "When you need money."

Jokes. I wanted to write that but I thought it had to be serious.. so I wrote you should have sex when you are in a stable relationship. Yep. I have no idea what that means. Someone wrote "Tonight" lol

Then, we brainstormed ideas. Unfortunately, we only have Tommy in our class. So it wasn't particularly fun.

8th grade was the best with L.Mess*

But I must admit, although we only had Tom, he surly did a good job making the class feel 'eky/horny'

I nearly puked when he mentioned his experience with white dreams and how he solved the problem. 

Also when he mentioned that he doesn't want to have sex with virgins because he would freak out by the blood pouring out. hahhaahha blood pours out. hahahahhahah like a rainfall. hahahhaah 

When he told someone that you can get a surgery to make yourself virgin again... ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

WHY WOULD SOMEONE GET A SURGERY TO STUFF THE BLOOD IN AGAIN?!?!?

 

From history text book lol

Castiglione’s ideal differend for men and women. The ideal man, he wrote, is athletic but now overactive. He is good at games, but not a gambler. He plays a musical instrument and knows literature and history but is not arrogant. The idea woman offers a balance to men. She is graceful and kind, lively but reserved. She is beautiful, “for outer beauty,” wrote Castiglione, “is the true sign of inner goodness.”

Homesick

I am so homesick... I want to go back to Korea ;< It has been more than two years!

I wish I could go during the summer vacation this year... 96% not

I miss it too much. My friends, my school, social life in Korea and EVERYTHING ;(

KOREA!! btw, my dad got a year extension~ woot woot

I guess I am staying in AIS until I finish 11th grade. It sad and good news at the same time.
Sad because I am staying another year in Israel...

Good because I am staying anther year in Israel...

it's a confusing feeling..

also, my birthday is coming soon! Yasmin remembered me

THAT MEANS THE HUNGER GAMES IS COMING OUT REALLY SOON ON MARCH 23rd!!

Wednesday_FIRST +Overall

The winner of the All Star Rookie team gets to go to St.Louis, America.
The Jokers won that award : <
I expected a bit to win the All Star because we managed to the semi finals when other Rookie teams didn't.
The Ladies First team won 2 awards. One for inspiration. Another for building..
WHICH MADE NO SENSE.
Okay, inspiration for chanting songs and being happy when they were ranked like the last 10. But building?!
Holy shuotu. If it's because their robot was pink, I am going to paint our robot pink with Justin Beiver's face on it.
The Steam Punk didn't win the Chairman award but they won second place : 3 good job

It was funny when the Californian team won the Israel region.
I mean.. the Americans came to Israel by invitation and won.. lol
They were surly good. #1662!

With all the ceremony and games done, we went to eat shwama.
While we were eating, the Ra'anana team packed our robotic stuff. lol
I was like..

lol

Oh funny thing:
On Wednesday, my dad saw our robot for the first time. (my mum hasn't seen it lol)
Usually when parents visit, they compliments us how we did a fantastic job and how amazing we built this in our first year from scratch.
But my dad was different.
He just nodded and didn't say a single motivating word.
I hate Korean/Asian parents.
ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


My mum became furious after she realized that she isn't going to get her $500 repaid. lol
She hates the project.
She hates it. 
When I came back on Wednesday, she started to scream how I came home at 11pm probably for the third time that week.
I don't know why, but she thinks I partied until 11pm. I've got no idea where she got that from. Eventually, I had to tell her where I was every 30 minutes that night.
She really doesn't understand the project and it's worth.
Too bad. I feel bad for her because one can't understand such thing if they haven't done it.
Since I figured out that there is no point to argue something she would never understand, I went upstairs silently and read the book club book and fell asleep.

I received an email from Mr Jackover. He wants a debrief on the 18th with all the parents and students involved in Robotics. My parents weren't near glad or happy when I told them we went to the semi finals.
It's most likely they are not going to come. lol

I hope I get to join next year.
50% not..because
1. My parents won't invest $500 on someone who got the Deans list not the Honor list.
2. Have 4 Cs, 2Bs and 1 A (So many Cs in my life time...lol)
3. 20 absences
4.Mr Sickle hates me now

Tuesday_FIRST+Wednesday_photos

So I woke up at 6:18am. 13 minutes late what I was planning.
I rushed to the shower and texted Carter that my father would drive me at 7am to the stadium.
When I left the house at 7ish, and arrived at school, Carter wasn't there. Carter decided to go to the stadium at 8:30a.m. by train. Dang. you could have told me that beforeee

Arrived at the stadium around 7:30 and dad dropped me off.
It was funny how he didn't even wanted to see our robot.. When I arrived, I went to a driver meeting even though I wasn't a driver. It was pretty boring.
Our first game was at like 10am.
I thought we would lost all our games. But we DIDN'T.
We had a record of 5wins 5loses and 0 ties.
We were the 36th out of around 50 teams!


It was pretty good result because we were the Rookies.
We were the third in the rookie teams
The Jokers, 4320 was amazing. I couldn't believe their team built such a big, chunky, accurate robot in their first year. They were ranked first with like 7wins and 4 loses I think.
The other team which I don't remember the name but do remember the number, 4326, was good too.
Their accuracy in shooting balls were terrific.
http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/frc-season-calendar

There was a team from an Orthodox Jewish girl highschool Be'er Sheva.
Their robot was pink and won like 1 or 2 games. They lost the rest of 6 games.
Ladies First kept on chanting holiday songs during the whole game inside the tent.
It was unspeakably annoying because it was noisy enough inside the tent without them singing.
Inside the tent, there were around 50 teams. The screeching sound of the metal cutter, the sharp irritating noise of saw cutting and the radio with pop music was surly wan't the best environment to work at.

Around 1pm, they started to give out few awards.
The Woodie Flower Award
and 4other awards. Gosh I forgot all the rest.
We didn't win anything :' < because we didn't know awards other than the Chairman and the Winner existed.lol
Oh well, next year.

Actual competition day of FIRST

Okay. I am really hungry.

I must eat something. But can't at NIGHT! >_< oh god.

sorry, I must sleep now. I have to wake up at 6am.

bye bye

good night

Practice day of FIRST

Woke up at 6:25am and went to school at 7am to pickup Carter to the train station.

kevin was supposed to meet at school too but he decided to meet us at the train station.

Carter and I was lucky enough to catch the 7:20am train to Ha Shalom.

Kevin wasn't. I found it half funny and half felt bad for Kevin. I kept on worrying about him.

But turns out Kevin met David and Elise at the train station! So Kevin safely arrived to the Nokia stadium.

When we arrived, there were lots of groups standing outside the stadium waiting to get inside the tent. I had no idea we had to go inside the tent. So I wondered around the place and found a gap where there was no security guard! I slipped inside. It turns out students weren't allowed to do that. Oh whatever, that's me. Breaking the rules all the time. I went inside the tend where 50 teams in Israel were working!

*Funny thing. Until our mentor arrived at Nokia Stadium, our team couldn't do anything because he had all the tools in his car. One of the judges thought we went home. lol

I spent 30 minutes taking a good look at each team's robots.

I thought we did a good job.. but others.. were... spectacular.

But again, we are the Rookies. They are not.

One team had 5 glass trophies, 5medals and a 'Winner of 2011 Israel Region' flag in front of their booth to show off. hmph. Since I had no knowledge of these 'booths' although Uri explained it as three side walls, I was surprised at how each team had their own 'unique-ness.'

Our booth is.. dull. But it won't be next year!

Today was just a practise day.

That meant we practise playing the game by actually controlling the robot by moving the joy-sticks. We played a lot of practise games than other teams I think. We had around 7? or 5? practise games.

For two games, our robot didn't move because of software problems

For the rest of the games, we moved but wasn't able to score for somehow :(

WE DID SO WELL AT THE SCHOOL AUDITORIUM

I am sure we are going to do better tomorrow.

on the REAL DAY.

When we weren't watching practise games, I went to the stadium and watched other team's game strategy. But most of the time, we were busy making last changes and fixes on the robot.

The damn bumper was the main problem.

Kept on acting retarded and didn't get screwed enough.

I acted so bitchy to tal and jay today hahahahahha

I was furious how they didn't understand what I was saying.

When I told them to make the bumpers stick to the shasi(?), they were like "what? how do you do that?" AND when I said "Hand me M6" they were looking at me as if I spoke Chinese to them.

aldjflak;dsjf;aldskfja;sldkfj;aldskfjasdlk;fja;dslkfja;dslfjk

I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE LIKE THEM, WHO CAME TO AT MOST 10 MEETINGS OUT OF 100 CAME TO THE PRACTISE GAME TODAY.

ESPECIALLY JAY. I DON'T THINK HE PAID

Jay probably hates me now lol

Oh well. :P

btw, I got home at 11pm.

I nearly died in the Nokia Stadium.

There are tons of stairs.

History research paper

History research paper?
