Well for sarters, my name is Ann. Kinda plain, unlike my personality. I am nocturnal and intellectual. I actually do not have a favorite color and I enjoy reading about culture and mythology. I used to be pretty good at soccer, and i think I still am. Seriously considering taking up Taekwondo or Judo though.
I love to listen to Asian Pop, esp. FT Island, DBSK, Super Junior and Bang Bang Tang(Lollipop)! I recently have become addicted to Fahrenheit and Big Bang!!! Ahh, I just love Asian stuff! After all, it's in my blood, literally. It's wierd though. I'm a mixed Asian. I' part Korean, Chinese, Phillipino and American. I don't know what to call myself exactly, so I'm Asian-American!! ^_~ Any way, if you want to chat, feel free to, although I may not be on alot, I'll try to reply ASAP! ^_~

Coming soon to the lives of many teens and young children around the world..... School!

I know. I'm being way too dramatic here, but I really don't want to go back to school yet. I feel so nervous about meeting all of my teachers. True, I would like to see all of my friends at school everyday, but there are other things that I really don't want to face...
1) My Pre-AP Chemistry teacher:
My mom, apparently, talked to him at the beginning of summer vacation and asked him about the textbooks we would be using in his class. I didn't thinl it was possible, but at registration when we went to pick up my textbooks and stuff, he recognized my mom and now he expects me to have read through the whole text by now! I did read a few chapters or so, but not by my own accord. I am soo doomed when I go to his class on the first day! To him, I'm already labeled as a nerd and he probably expects alot out of me. Well, to be honest, I am smart, not nerdy-ish though, but I don't like high expectations right off the bat like that. It makes me feel very nervous and stressed. Like I can't disappoint anyone, so I must be perfect. Sigh, what a mess....
2) Orchestra:
So, this year I made it into the top orchestra as a freshman. The music they play is usally meant for juniors and seniors easily, but for sophmores and epsecially freshman, the music can be rather challenging. Again, it's my whole problem with expctations. My family, as well as my violin tutor, expect only the best from me. I have to be in the top orchestra. I have to try out for all-region and all-state. Make high scores in solo and ensemble; no less than a 1. Strive for first chair, Ann. Arggh! I know they mean well, but I can only do so much. I used to love to play the violin, but once it got all competitive, I found myself hating to practice. At times, I still love it, and I really love its sound. It's just when everything gets competitve is when I start to loathe it. Don't misunderstand me, though. I love competition and I understand that my family only wants the best for me, but I really want to not have to worry about my chair or wether I'm a first violin or not. It wouldn't really matter much to me if made it into all-region or not, either. I just want to play what I like and understand. Right now I'm being taught things I barely understand, and there's still much more to learn. A slower pace would be nice.
3) "....." :
Okay, so there's this guy I had a crush on last year. I thought I got over it, notice I'm referring to him as an "it", during the summer. But when I saw himat registration, just a glance at him too, I'm beginning to doubt myself. The worst part is that he's one of those people that I just dislike. He's one of those stuck-up rich popular kind, but he's all that I've wished for in a guy. It kills me to say this but, he's athletic, has musical talent, he's smart, and he's Asian and cute. I hate/like him. He's even better than me at playing the violin, I must admit. Oh, I just hate him! I used to loathe him before I started hating him. Maybe it's true what they say, Jeez, why do I have to like him!!!!
Anyways, if you read this: Thanks. It feels much better to let all this out. I have problems with expressing myself through words. On paper or typed up on a blog or whatever, it's easier to say what I want to without breaking down. ^_^ I feel refreshed!!~~~
