YO~ I'm Ji. This world will probably used for everything and anything I'm thinking about... which may or may not be so monotonously boring that it bores you to death (hence the name).

(I have more favorites but my mind is drawing a blank atm. As you can see, I have a lot of favorites, simply because I cannot choose which one is the best.)

Favorite Dramas (Taiwanese, Korean, and Japanese): I've probably watched over 100+ dramas in my lifetime ROFL
ISWAK, Playful Kiss, Boys over Flowers, 49 Days, Miss Ripley, ROOFTOP PRINCEEEEEEE, Dream High (1 not 2), Hi, My Sweetheart, ToGetHer, Smiling Pasta, Pasta, Hana Kimi, Hana Yori Dango, Man of Honor, Nobuta wa Produce, Romantic Princess, Tokyo Juliet, City Hunter, SKK Scandal, Personal Taste

Biases: Usui Takumi (Kaichou wa maid Sama), AJ (UKISS), Touji (Peach Girl), Akiyama (Matsuda Shouta in Liar Game)

Music: Kpop, Jpop, Jrock, Tpop, Anime, Classical, and whatever I come across and like... so basically almost everything? o-o

Killing Time

So, today my 6 year old cousin came to visit us. At 8 AM in the morning. Thank goodness I decided to sleep early last night and didn't do another all nighter watching anime LOL. She and my aunt woke up at 3 AM in the morning to come visit us, and had a LOT of trouble finding our house so they came 1 hour late. Not sure if I'm happy or upset about that hah.

Anyways, we had a lot of fun. I was the "old kid" though so I kinda felt out of the loop.

External Image
FAIILLLL

We went outside and ran around, we played ball, we sang, we danced, we lip synched to random songs we had never heard of before, and we also played hide-and-go-seek. The only down side about playing hide and go seek is that most good hiding places are too small for me to hide in now so....
yeah. Long story short, I have major back pain right now LOL. I AM TOO YOUNG FOR THIS. Oh, and we also went to Wendy's. I was going to stick to getting just a 99 cent frosty, but in the end the crispy chicken sandwich and strawberry shortcake parfait tempted me too much... and then I just had to get gum. Goodness, and I thought I promised myself that I'd start dieting today. Meh.

External Image External Image
hehehe hehehe; yes, more irrelevant GIFs

So yeah. Anyways, major back pain ftw. I wish I was still 4 feet tall (well not really, but I wish I could shrink and grow at my own will...) so that I could hide in cabinets and stuff. I was always the first one to be found. /awkwardly flails

I feel like a little kid again though. HAPPEEEEEEE.

External Image

She left just now. We played for 7 hours before she left and now I'm exhausted. Which is baaaad. School starts in three days and I haven't done my summer reading. I was planning to finish it today but oh well. I want to nap and do random stuff on TheO now though... Oh summer reading what will I do with you.

Peach Girl and Anime Recs Please?

Warning: If you are in the middle of watching Peach Girl, don't read. There are spoilers~

So last night, I stayed up to 4AM watching Peach Girl. Right when I woke up today, I continued watching Peach Girl and so over the time span of less than a day, I managed to get up to episode 19 (and I'm still going).

As someone who has killed time watching over 200+ anime/dramas combined, I can't see the reasoning of some writers. In BOF, at first, I was all for JihooxJandi but after rewatching, I realize that Junpyo and Jandi are a better match. In some romcoms/dramas/anime, the main female protagonist ending with the "bad guy" actually works out quite well, and I'm perfectly fine with it.

Actually, I probably obsess over some dramas a lot more than I should cough rainie yang and wilber pan cough cough

GOING OFF ON A TANGENT FOR A QUICK SECOND:
I lufffffffffleeeee some couples. For example, OtanixRisa, UsuixMisaki, HikarixKei, Lee GakxBak Ha, just to name a few.
It makes me happeeeee.

BUT NOT IN PEACH GIRL.
Anyways, at the beginning I was like kyaaaaaaa this might be a cute anime, and so I kept watching. I thought Touji was awesome, and I also thought Kairi was awesome as well so I figured it would be a win win situation regardless of who Momo ended with. Touji broke up with Momo in order to protect her from having her image tainted, but still liked her the whole time he pretended to hate her. Kairi helped her feel better and Momo felt happy around Kairi. IMO the anime itself wasn't the best (very slow, don't like the female lead, etc but I'm really bored and don't feel like watching MIT compsci videos LOL), but I kept watching because I was bored and it seemed like there would be a decent ending.

ASKDLASDKLA; BUT THEN. When Kairi starts going out with Momo it turns out that Kairi doesn't even like Momo that much and is still thinking about Misao who, not to mention, is like 10 years older than Kairi while he goes out with Momo. And the only reason Momo ever started going out with Kairi and fell in love with him was because Touji was forced by Sae to break up with Momo so that Sae wouldn't leak the images of Momo. -_____-; AND THEN WHILE KAIRI IS DATING MOMO HE KISSES MISAO AND CONFESSES TO HER. WTH. I'm no dating expert, but I'm fairly sure that you're not supposed to confess to other girls while you are already dating someone else... I sympathize with Touji, who sincerely loves Momo and will never end with her. Bah.

Anyways that made me mad askflasdfasd; it's like Kairi is just using Momo since he knows that Misao will never think of him as anything more than a younger brother who is probably at least 9 years younger than her. Impatient to watch all the way to the end, I googled to see who Momo would end with, and as I expected-Kairi.

WHYY WRITERS WHHYYYYY.
If you had Momo go with Touji I would have frolicked in my chair (if that's even possible LOL) and praised this for having a smart ending despite having some choppy writing and character flaws. Or at least if you didn't turn Kairi from one of the best characters in this whole anime to the worst--seriously. I loved Kairi in the beginning for being so funny and supportive but now he's just a jerk.

It's almost like writers of all romance-related stuff are obsessed with bad guys like Ethan Ruan's character in Fated to Love You, but that's a whole different rant LOL. An anime/drama doesn't need the girl to end with a bad guy to make it good, believe it or not.

Anyways, I've heard that Momo goes back to Touji in around ep 19 and stays with him until the last episode so as I sulk in my little corner, I'll probably go watch those few eps where Touji and Momo are together so that I can convince myself that Kairi never ends with Momo.

ON A COMPLETELY RANDOM NOTE.

lawl these guys are the most pwnsome fails of all fails

Does anyone else feel like there are SO many animes/dramas where the girl ends with the bad guy without a proper development or reason behind it?
I FEEL LIKE THAT SO OFTEN OMG.
well, less often than not but still. hnnnnnng.
And no, I'm not an obsessive fangirl as most of you may think or I hope at least hehehehehe.
But I really do wonder what the people who write these stories are thinking... I wonder what went through their minds as they wrote this. I'm fairly sure if this was an irl situation, the girl would much rather go to the guy who actually cares for her but maybe that's just imo.

ANYWAYS can anyone give me recommendations of good anime to watch? I like a lot of stuff (but I hate ecchi and would prefer not to watch something with a LOT of blood and gore like High School of the Dead-I had to quit watching that after 2 minutes because I was so creeped out rofl). I've watched everything from Death Note to Pandora Hearts to Mermaid Melody to Kaichou wa Maid Sama to Gakuen Alice to OHSHC so I like a variety of different things. I need an anime to watch (or drama too, but you'd probably have trouble giving me a drama rec since I've watched so many lolol) and would really appreciate any suggestions!

왜 항상 나쁜 사람만 이기는걸가? 인생은 참 이상하다 ㅋㅋ ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ휴휴휴휴~

이제 난 공부해야징 ㅠㅠ;

EDIT: OHMYGAWSH I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING. has anyone else noticed the age gap between the people in Kdramas and Tdramas?
Most of the famous Kdramas I've watched have protagonists that are like, 22 to 29 years old (rarely older-an exceptions are Gong Yoo in Big), but most of the people in Tdramas are like, 29+ (Kingone Wang, Ethan Ruan, Dean Fujioka, Joe Chen, etc. The only two people who are kinda young that I can think of at the moment are Rainie Yang and Mike He (<3 in Why Why Love), but they are also 28 LOL)

I wonder why that is.
A difference in culture maybe? o3o
My parents always made it sound like in Korea, people would start losing popularity after they got older so I can understand why most recent famous actors are all in their 20's...

Studying and Procrastination

I FOUND SO MANY AMAZING ROOFTOP PRINCE GIFS ASKDLASDA;ASDKJASDA;
Okay, semi-irrelevant but who cares. I LOVE THIS STUFF.

Anyways.
So, I went to work yesterday and realized something. SCHOOL STARTS IN EXACTLY A WEEK. When did time fly by so quickly?
I still have to finish my summer reading notes, so basically I've been panicking for the last three hours doing nothing to actually finish my work LOL.

External Image
SAVE ME AUGHHHHHH

So yeah. That's basically been my morning. I slept insanely late last night because I ate too much chicken and had a tummy ache, and then my dad woke me up super early today to work on something. I'm half asleep at the moment but I can't get myself to fall back asleep. Blah.

External Image
TOO MUCH STRESS TO HANDLE ASDKLASDAA;

Anyways. So, being the insanely masochistic person that my alter ego is, I subconsciously decided to take 11 AP exams (self studying 9 of them roflroflrofl), attempt to get to semis for USABO, and take an online AP class to maintain my salutatorian rank (band-lacking rich people who can afford more online APs than me, you so lucky-lolbutnosrsly, I have to take two online APs just to have the same weighted GPA as someone who isn't in band.)

External Image
And Yoochun thinks... "It's all your fault" - not that a ring is anyhow relevant to anything I'm talking about but I like this GIF and his face

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MANAGE THIS LOLOLOL. Is it even possible for me to maintain my ECs, GPA, sport (which I suck at fufufu), SAT scores, SAT II study, and everything else along with this?
Then again, it probably is my fault for not having opened any of my AP study guides over summer vacation...... I blame TheO. For July at least lol. NO idea what I even did during June, thanks to my fail memory.

External Image
orlynao?

I opened my AP chem book today and after the first thing I was like whaaat. It was talking about quantum numbers and orbitals and... other stuff. I was lost after two words. And for AP comp sci... the introduction discussed data sets and I couldn't even understand the definitions of the terms LOL.

I do not live up to stereotypical Asian expectations, no I don't.
I'd rather watch dramas all day and practice my dancing. Yush. LIKE DEES.

내가 너무예쁘, 너무 너무 예쁘, 라라라라라라라라라랄라ㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏ~ 후후후하하하히히히휴휴휴휴.

Before I frolic off into the distance to start working on my summer reading notes, I must say something.

POWER RANGERS PEACE OUT.

gawdiloverooftopprincesomuch.

By the way is anyone planning on taking the SAT in October, November or December? If so we should totally be study buddies. :D

That and for these AP exams: AP Chem, AP HuG, APES, AP US Govt, both AP economics, AP English lang, APUSH, AP stats, AP comp sci, and possibly AP Calc BC (I'm highly considering selfing this one because I just realized that in a month, I completely forgot all of my trig and I'm worried about what would happen if I didn't open a math textbook for a whole school year lol.)

we can fight you~

Graphics Advice and Shtuff?

I don't have anymore time today, but I did find some really awesome scans that I'd like to use in a possible next wallpaper or eCard. :D

I Like Potatoes and Strawberry Ice Cream omnomnom

For the next few days, I'm going to be experimenting a lot with different styles of graphics (eg playing around with blur and sharpen, layer curves, colors, etc) in order to improve my work so I'd really appreciate any tips!

Also, are you supposed to have your username on every graphics thing? I just realized that I've done it, but only a few times because I hate typography and hate having text on my stuff (hence why my typography on my eCards and wallpapers is so trololol LOL). I think I should start putting my name in every corner, but I think it would look really ugly and awkward. xC

Useless Work or Unhealthy Obsessions?

This is a very long essay-length post about my unhealthy obsessions and fetishes and habits and whatnot. YAY FOR PRATTLING ON ABOUT RANDOMNESS LIKE A NARCISSISTIC PIG. 8D To be honest, I'm not even sure what I'm talking about at the moment...
External Image
AHAHAHA YESSSSSSSSSS WE GONNA PARTY BROS loljknotreally
By the way, no one has to read this. I just get really bored and like talking to myself. LOL

I'm an obsessive and creepy stalkerish fangirl who has studied so much for the SAT, and I like to ramble on and on and on and on about the most pointless things in the world. To be honest, I think I have WAY too much free time on my hands. These 10+ hours on my hands doing nothing could be used to cure cancer or build my own EEG but you know, I'm just not motivated enough. I wish I was though ha.

First of all, as you've probably noticed, I LOVE GIFS asdfklasdfklasdfa;sdfklasdf;asdfa. I love my GIFs. Well, they aren't really mine since I didn't make them (I just got them off of my bff tumblr lol), but THEY ARE MINE. ALL MINEEEE.
Seriously. There have been days when I just look at GIFs for 4 hours and do nothing else. Literally. Yes, usually, I don't have a great attention span but I can sit still for when it counts. And yes, I kill a lot of time. As you can see. Which leads me to point number 1.5. I spend so much time on dramacrazy and youtube that I have probably watched every korean drama (and 80% of the t/j dramas) you name.

External Image
WOOO I JUST PASSED DRAMA CLASS. too bad that isn't really a class. I'd be the smartest in my school if there honors and AP Korean drama offered at my school LOL.

And since I just forgot what I was going to say, on to the next point. Procrastination. omg. MY BEST AND WORST FEATURE. So this year, I took 3 AP exams, and I only took the class for one. I did read through biology and psychology study guides barely, but I never seemed to soak anything in, and I never really cared to do anything about it. And then, on the weekend before my exams, I studied for 15 hours straight per day for two days (and maybe I sneaked in a kdrama in between.... coughcough) and ended up getting 5's on all of my exams. beast. Too bad I can't do that this year, since I'm probably taking like, 11 asdkflasdfkas;df. I'M GONNA DIEEEE.
Anyways, and then for English in 9th grade, I ended up leaving my summer reading (The Hobbit) until the DAY BEFORE SCHOOL STARTED. Luckily, I'm fast at reading and writing, but I was reading and taking notes until 1 PM (part of the reason because I was on neo throughout the whole morning chatting on boards and feeding my pets rofl).
In the end, my teacher didn't check our notes until like, a week after school started so I regretted staying up.
THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS. I don't know about you but for me, whenever I procrastinate until last minute to do something and stay up all night working on my stuff, something really lucky happens like the teacher decides to grade easily or postpones the deadline or something or other.

YES KARMA LOVES ME. Except for with technology, which I have already mentioned before.

Anyways. Digressing again. I told you this was going to be random. AWKWARD MOMENTS. So, believe it or not, in real life I'm quite an introvert when I'm around people I don't know or feel comfortable with. I don't talk at all. But then, when I'm around my friends, I LAUGH AND TALK LIKE A DONKEY OMG. And I laugh at everything, which doesn't help my case. If we're in the middle of a class, and someone does something slightly funny, then I start cracking up and my guffaw reverberates through the class and everyone stares at me.

External Image

derpderphimynameisjiandyoucanignoremenow.i'lljuststandhereanddancewhileyouguysturnawayhehe

Yes. Awkwardness. And then when I'm frolicking and half-attempting to sing in an opera-like falsetto, someone just HAS to walk into the room. I stop midway between my failure of a "dance" and then I look all funny.

Same with pictures. Whenever my family takes pictures, I HAVE THE WEIRDEST EXPRESSIONS in every. single. one. When we went to a springs resort and I was in the spa, my sister secretly took a picture of me while I was getting up out of the water and my face looked like this:

External Image

My parents were literally laughing their heads off for hours after that. WHY ARE PICTURES SO EVIL. They always get my awkward moments and never my good ones. Then again, cameras are technology so I'm not surprised.

ALSO, EATING. I JUST HAVE TO GET THIS OUT THERE FUFUFUFU.
I love eating.
Everything.
Yesterday, I ate 2 pounds of ribeye steak with rice and kimchi and lettuce. I didn't even realize I ate that much but yeah, I ate that much. AND THEN AFTERWARDS I ATE MOAR. I probably ate like 5000 calories worth of food that day, rofl. There is a reason why I'm chubby. x( I eat as a habit. My parents got a free box of fortune cookies (by box, I mean a box bigger than my school backpack and my lunch box combined...) and I've been eating 3 a day. I finally realize now that I do believe in fortune cookies... and the chinese words on the back. I now know how to say 13 new words in Chinese. WIN.
I wanted to lose weight over summer vacation and I did manage to lose 5 pounds over the course of the first 2 weeks of June... and then I gained it all back plus more. WHY PARENTS? WHY? After that little success there they ended up bringing hot wings every night at like 11 PM and woke me up to eat with them and have "family bonding time", which was nice, but I ate most of the stuff they brought, which was like 1000 calories worth of my favorite yummies. u___u I'm not sure if I should be happy or sad right now LOL.

Anyways, I feel like posting my Asian quiz retake results because I'm bored out of my mind and feel like posting more GIFs (and you need nice, big blocks of text to make the GIFs stand out more heeheeheeee)

Gawdilovegifssomuch.
And by the way, does anyone agree about the stereotypes associated with nerds?
Most people say that smart people do nothing but study all day and would never waste time doing anything like killing time on the internet (aka like every single one of my cousins and their parents LOL)... but I go online more than I sleep and eat every day and I still get good grades/SAT practice test scores/SAT IIs/APs and such. And I have ECs. My parents want me to apply to HYPSM and I'm debating on whether or not I should actually stop coming online so much so that I can focus on studying more.... I dunno if it will even be worth it though LOL.
