Back in Austin

HAI THAR WORLD,

So I arrived back in Austin yesterday. It feels nice to be back at well "home"... although I can't really say that. Without countless hours on the road driving back, it was a pain. I have never been in a car for that long! O_O Who knew sitting down in a car seat could wear you out that much...

But nonetheless, I think my fatigue is also due to the fact that I pulled an all-nighter yesterday. Yuppers, I got home from a long road trip and instead of sleeping.. I stayed up to 7am. Smart move... I know. It was a good experience though. How? Well I don't really stay up late or pull any stunts like that usually. You can say my life is pretty lame :)

What else is new? OH! I GOT CONVERSE :3 Just normal Grey All Stars... but I always wanted them so YAY!!! Converse is awesome. Maybe I'll post a picture of them later but you know what they look like ^_^

ARGH! I have a whole yellow book of noob piano theory to do. Minors, majors, relative minors, double sharps, double flats, tonic, mediant, submediant... I'm going crazy. The worst part is that I totally fail at identifying the key signature of scales.. who do others do it!! >.< So unfair. AHH I wish I better at theory.

So many piano stuff to do; I also have to practice my songs. GAH, why can't I be gifted in piano like all the otehr asians :C. AH BAH.

HARHAR.. I found a baby picture of me; here's baby patty lol:

So small :3

Hypocrite. (Rant)

HAI THAR WORLD!

I'm kinda mad at the moment. Why is it that people can say bad things about the people who I idolize or admire yet when the smallest things said about their idols is the end of the world?

People have different taste in music; deal with it. You can say you don't like a certain band but you don't have to take it to another step and start saying stuff like;

Why would anybody like them? They're just absolutely horrible... I mean really! And keep going on and on and ON AND ON AND ON!! Especially when someone who likes them is right beside you. It's just respect like honestly. But it someone says something bad about YOUR favorite band, they're stupid or don't know anything about music. No, that's not it... they must be crazy but mostly stupid.

LIKE UGH! Do you want to hear about the people who you look up to put down? In a really rude way too...

"Everyone is entitled to their opinion." Yes. THEN RESPECT OTHERS OPINIONS!!!

As a swimmer, I look up to Micheal Phelps. I don't need to hear all the negatives about him. He did drugs, he smokes pot, he parties, he hooks up with girls... okay. That's not why I look up to him. I see him in the water, swimming, winning and doing what he does best. He's one of the best athletes in the world! SO SHUT UP! (I'm sorry that was harsh o.o)

I'm just really frustrated that some people who I'm around at the moment are really opinionated and make sure they get their point across. Like they don't care what other people think.. just what they like. And they're not open to different things, different people... stuff that's not your average joe. Because what they think is the ONLY way to go.

People who are asian are weird or odd.
Rock is horrible... rap is the way to go.
AE, Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister... Why the hell would you wear that?
Family Guy is awesome.
CSI sucks.
Adam Lambert sucks.
Basket-ball is the coolest sport.
Smart cars suck and should be destroyed.
Panic at the Disco and Fall Out Boy are the worst bands EVER.

And many more things...

So basically, I feel left out most of the time... Always being different. I always have to sit there in the car or whatever and listen to their stupid obnoxious comments about the stuff I enjoy.

It's just really annoying...

BAI,
Patty~

American Rant

HAI THAR WORLD (*cough*maggie),

I shall rant a bit more. Although I hate generalizing, I'm not going to but rather just talk about the kids I met so far; American Kids *sigh*.

Rude, talking back to their parents, having no appreciation for what they do, selfish, annoying, well honestly just rude and not listening to what their parents say.

Unlike Canada, America is more like a Melting Pot, a tomato soup where everything is one and the same. People merge to be the same to be accepted. On the other hand, Canada is more of a fruit salad. Where every ingredient keeps its flavor and individuality but is mixed together to form one delicious salad :)

So conclusion? Salads are better than tomato soups >:) AND healthier!

The kids I met here were like your stereotypical Russell Peter Ryan like kid. Not listening to their parents... and I guess we all do that but it's the fact that they're really rude and ignorant too.

Thinking that money grows on trees, that parents are there to make their lives miserable, complaining, taking things for granted, having MAJOR attitude, not appreciating the small things in life and always being moody for some reason.

American kids don't smile much... I find it weird.

I guess that's the end of my rant. It just makes me so mad... cause I can tell their parents try hard to discipline them (nothing like the reverse psycho asian-way) but the kids won't listen. It's really heartbreaking to see the faces of the parents sometimes when the kids won't listen.

They just don't know what to do! That must suck... I guess you don't want your kid to end up in a never-ending life ending hurricane which will lead them to a miserable life regretting the fact that they didn't listen to you and ruined their own life.

Wow that was sad O.o

Anyways, I'm tired.

Later... for now.

THE Grand Canyon

HAI THAR WORLD,

I feel really lucky to be able to see one of the 7 Wonders of the World. Who knew a big ...BIG hole in a rock could be so amazing.

Grand Canyon, Arizona... it was hot. WARNING: Canadians should NOT be exposed to that kind of heat. But I didn't want to be a drag so I kept my mouth shut and didn't complain.

So pweetyy!! <3

The part of the Grand Canyon that I saw was the south rim. I also hiked into 1.5 miles into the canyon. The first part was pretty easy since it was all down hill.. but the way back up; oh boy.

I really hate when people complain. That said, I had to hear the whining of how much people were tired, if their muscles were cramping up and complaining about the remaining distance. They didn't have to carry a back pack; filled with water and fruits.


The grand canyon was really amazing though. Weird how rocks could be so amazing eh? But I totally understand why people travel from all over to see this natural phenomenon. It's really amazing. It's really sad how some people don't appreciate it though.

Anyways, I took the opportunity to practice my fail photography skills:

This is my favorite picture... I don't know why :P

I don't know if you can tell, but it's B&W bark

Aiya, asian pose with Grand Canyon sign

Overall, the Grand Canyon was a super great experience! Just make sure you're fit before hiking down ;)

Adorkable <- tehehehe.. watta weird word
