Random Saturday, Part 2

Like I said, I just found my old xanga account and going thru posts. 

Now this cracks me up.

If you're Asian, you would probably laugh. 

I'm Asian, so I did laugh.


Apparently I got this from an email (back in January 22, 2004!), and I posted this on my xanga.

this is just for shiz-and-giggles. If you're offended by this, oh well. 

What kind of Asian are you? 
Young Asians in America come in many forms. Below are the major categories. Most Asians fit into multiple groups. For example, Rice-boys can also be Fobs and many Tabs are Fobulous. The only groups that are never part of another group are the Twinkies and the Asian-Americans. Claim your Fobbiness! When you see your Asian friend, greet them with "Wassup Fob!" And if your Asian friend says something ridiculous, say "Fob please!" Of course, when a non-Asian calls you a Fob that is grounds for a fight. Ahahaha... The categories below are to be taken lightheartedly. Read, recognize and laugh. 

Twinkie
Besides your nationality, there is little to distinguish you from white people.
Your significant other is not Asian and never has been.
You have few Asian friends, if any.
You are embarrassed at family events because you cannot speak your language and everyone has to switch to English to communicate with you.
You have no idea that the other types of Asians on this list even exist.
You think Hello Kitty is dumb and do not know what Sanrio is.
You are the only Asian on the list that does not know what Bubble Tea is.
You drive a Ford or some other domestic car and if you drive a Honda, it is stock.

You claim yourself as Asian, but real Asians think you're whitewashed and non-Asians see you as a foreigner. You fit in nowhere.
You have heard of Bubble Tea but have never actually had any.
You are confused about your cultural identity and express this frustration through spoken word performances at your college.
You read A. magazine and think it's great.

 You have taken the Asian Studies course at college.
You are trying to learn as much as possible about your culture to make up for your lifetime of trying to be white (Twinkie; Banana) or White (Chigger; Thousand year old egg).
If you are lucky, you will grow to become Fobulous.

Gangsta Fob
You have shot another Asian.
Your favorite hangout is a pool hall.
When you talk, you sound like a cross between a Fob and an urban black kid.

Random Saturday

So I finally looked up my old xanga account, and now I just spent the last 3 hours clicking thru it, knowing how naive I was back then... and how EMO I was back then. Ah the good ol' college days. A little FYI, back in college, I didn't have many friends. most of my friends were church friends and the jerk-ex-boyfriend (whom i truly did love at the time, apparently).

I found this post and I couldn't help but not to re-post. 

~How To Annoy People In An Elevator~
  • Burp, and then say “mmmm...tasty!”
  • Call out, “Group hug!” and enforce it. 
  • Do Tai Chi exercises.
  • Drop a pen and wait until someone reaches to help pick it up, then scream, “That’s mine!” 
  • Hum the theme from Mission Impossible with yours eyes darting around the elevator. 
  • Lean against the button panel.
  • Move your desk in to the elevator, and whenever someone gets on, ask if they have an appointment.
  • Play dead. 
  • Read a book upside down. 
  • Say "Ding!" at each floor. 
  • Stare at your thumb and say, "I think it's getting larger." 
  • Wear a Santa suit...in June.
  • When the elevator is silent, look around and ask, "Is that your beeper?" 

~Annoying Things To Do In A Discount Superstore~
  • As the cashier runs your purchases over the scanner, look mesmerized and say, "Wow. Magic!" 
  • Dart around suspiciously while humming the theme from "Mission: Impossible." 
  • Fill your shopping cart with matchbooks and gasoline and walk around smiling at people.
  • Go into the dressing room and yell real loud... “Hey, we’re out of toilet paper in here!”
  • Grab handfulls of super bounce balls and go wild.
  • Move "Caution: Wet Floor" signs to carpeted areas. 
  • Put random items in the shopping carts of others while they aren't looking. 
  • Repeat whatever the store clerk tells you. 
  • Set up a "Valet Parking" sign in front of the store. 
  • Take all of the free AOL cd's on the end of the check out counter

~Ways To Annoy People At The Movies~
  • Throw popcorn in the air and yell, "It's snowing!"
  • Go, "Oooooh..." whenever anyone kisses.
  • Clap when the good guy gets killed.
  • During the previews, yell, "Can you fast-forward it?"
  • Wear 3d glasses. Complain loudly how bad the effect are.
  • Bring a remote control. Complain that you can't change the channel.
  • Bring a beach ball. Toss it around.
  • Try to start a wave.
  • Every time someone curses cover your ears and scream, "No profanity!"
  • Sing with the theme music.
  • Use binoculars. Stare at the audience rather than the movie.
  • Laugh hysterically during the sad parts in the movie, cry during the funny ones.
  • Say "Shhhhh" every 5 minutes.
  • Pass by a room that’s showing a movie you’ve already seen, put your head into the room, and scream the ending.
Would any of you do this? Haha... I don't think I would.

Guest Post: JanMLoves


Today, we have a treat, fellow bunnies. A Moonbeamer, Ms. Jan M of JanMLoves, a fellow SoCal girl like moi, had the time to answer some of my questions for my Guest Post for today. Yay.

Twitter | Pinterest
Cool fact: We both love FOOD. Wait. Who doesn't?

What I love about her is how family oriented and down to earth she is. AAAANNNDDD she has better fashion sense than me. Hahaha.

Well thank you for answering my weird questions, Jan.
  • Do you believe in Astrology? Why/Why Not? What is your sign?

I don't. I don't mind if other people do though! Last year, our office actually hired a Psychic to visit our office for Halloween. She's one of those celebrity ones and I didn't go to a session with her. Why? Because one, it's kind of against Christianity and second, I don't want to know anything about my future...I'd rather cross the bridge when I get there rather than getting my hopes up because she felt teh positive vibration ;) I'm a Gemini - people say we have 2 personalities. I know what mine are - my professional office personality and the real me. Some people in my office get to see both though! 
  • What was the last thing you ever got grounded for?

I honestly never got grounded. EVER. The worst thing I got as a punishment when I was a kid was when my mom won't talk to me because she's pissed. Haha! That still bothers me when we argue and we don't make up right away until now.
  • If you had to choose to not ever wash your bed sheets again or not wash your bath towel ever again, which would you rather not wash?

Not wash my sheets. I'll just sleep on the couch ;)
  • If you don’t already have a family of your own- what do you imagine your family to be like? If you do, did you ever dream your family would be like it is now?

Ready to travel to Jan's imaginary world? Okay let's go...Ron and I will have 2 kids, a boy and a girl. We'll let them both try everything from piano lessons to the Kobe Bryant Basketball Camp until they become passionate about something. ;)

Mkay, for the last question, that was just a weird gag question. Haha... I had this book called The Bible - About my Friends Book that I got back in 2004 from Urban Outfitters. If I read it, all the answers that my friends wrote, crack me up. There's even a entry by Robert, back in the days. He was trying to be Mr. Mysterious. I'm gonna have him fill it up again. 

Thanks again to Jan for taking time to do a guest post aka Q&A with Bolu :)
