To search for one's true love,
you must first find your true self.
Don't just love yourself, though.
Love the people around you who truly care for you.
为了寻找自己的真爱,
你必须先找到你真正的自我。
不只是爱自己,虽然。
爱你周围的人谁真正关心你。
My Prince, please find me... 我的王子,请找我...
My name is Xiao Yu Di. I love Pochacco, Mangas, Reading, Cup O Noodle, Ramen, Muffins, Performing, Internet, Writing, Sleep, and one
particular guy.
我的名字是小雨滴。 我爱PC狗,曼加斯,读,杯Ø面,拉面,松饼,表演,上网,写作,睡眠,和一个特别的人。
Someone who likes to sing, shine, and at times shy;
Someone who's not afraid to show a lot of emotion;
Someone who's a few years older than me.
I'd date someone who isn't that tall,
but isn't that short (for me) either;
Someone who is average,
Someone who loves to write lyrics, watching movies, and learn Chinese
(I'm not Chinese either, but I'm learning).
Last off, I'll love a guy who has nice skinship,
who's not afraid to be a little bit bad sometimes, ;-)
and who's willing to spend time with an average girl...

Surprisingly Sleepy...
I'm like a freakin` vampire. Lately I've been sleeping around this time and waking up in the middle of day. Everybody Hates Chris is on right now. A rerun episode. Hehe~ I'm spazzin` over SHINee's new album right now! Yeah, I know, last month they released the CD and about 2 weeks ago I got it, but even now I still squeal over their performances and such! I'm addicted to SHINee fanfiction now. :P And now I think I'm slowly getting to reading Fahrenheit fanfiction again. :) I was supposed to be doing my summer projects. Yes, there's 2 of them. AP Literature and AP Government and Economics. Uggggghhh. I'm on my sister's stupid little laptop while she uses my normal "huge" one for her MV version with Tasha and a girl named Melissa of Super Junior's No Other MV. Take a look at it if you're reading this. Also, The Cab's Vegas Skies. You should listen to it. :) It's pretty cool. Found myself listening to it while I was reading a fanfic story. :P I should probably finish my projects soon, huh? Also, before school ended about a month and a half ago, our junior class was advised to send college applications and scholarship applications. I don't know the first thing to do that sort of stuff at home, so I guess I'll wait until school starts again. I know, a bit late, considering since applications end around December of this year for class of 2010 students. But, I just don't feel prepared yet. :( I'll only do things once I feel prepared. I'm still sticking to music as my major, or basically taking more arts as subjects once I get to college in September next year.
As the title states, I will be 17 years old starting in about an hour or so. In Korea, I'd be 18 years old already, depending on Time Zones. Like, right now in the U.S., it's June 24 at 11:30p.m. Also, right now in Korea, it's June 25 at 3:30p.m. And yes, I know, Michael Jackson died last year on my birthday. :( I wonder how it's going to work out tomorrow....?...... As for updates on this blog, I promise I'll post more about anything other thanGuardian chapters. After all, I have all summer.:) By the way, my last day of school was on Wednesday. Which means that now I am a senior in high school. :D Go, Class of 2011! Yeah, yeah, baby~! Heh. I'm listening to Replay by SHINee right now. Now I really wonder if it's possible to make a somewhat female version of that song. Like, maybe Oppa You're So Cute/Handsome? I'd totally sing that! Hahaha~ Seriously though, I even thought of a small tune in my head that's different from the original Replay, so I'm hoping that it's okay for someone to publish a song like that with copyrights authorized and sung out to public. Am I thinking of writing lyrics for Oppa You're So Cute/Handsome? Maybe.... ;-) Oh~ right now I'm listening to I'm Back by Danson Tang featuring Amber from f(x). This song is so hype! Gives you a nice feeling to dance, doesn't it? ^_^ Hmm.... I'll probably make another blog after senior graduation 2011. This is the only blog I'm controlling right now. Hehehe~ I'm thinking of having a masquerade ball next year on my 18th birthday. Whoever's reading this blog right now, you think many people would come? The theme for my masquerade ball would be something like from that music video of Juliette by SHINee. Yeah, that's probably going to be the theme for the masquerade ball. ^_^ Hope many people come to it next year! In that case, I should probably exercise more and lose weight, right? In order to fit into the right dress I want? Hehe... I weigh around 77.3 kg - that's a lot, huh! I'm also 157.48 cm in height. Weird, huh? I'm the tallest out of my family of 4! The shortest is obviously my little sister, but she's a sophomore now and 15 years old! And yet, she's 144.78 cm in height and 54.5 kg... Going off topic here, I'll be posting the last 2 chapters of Guardian. But, the chapters may be delivered in sections like the previous/latest chapter so far. Ah~I wish all my hopes, dreams, and wishes come true!
Omo! Why was this given to me? Usually Drum Captains get this award every year. I admitted to my band teacher that I felt I didn't deserve it, but he said I did. Plus, all the lower classmen thought I deserved it. o_O This was just awarded to me last night. I thought for sure it was going to be Raymond and Josh. But, when the band teacher listed all these things I did as he made one of his "possible made from the impossible" speech, I was literally speechless. As soon as he said from Honor Band, I thought it would be awarded to Josh and Ry. As soon as he said "fixing parts of the music to make things easier", I immediately knew he was talking about me, but I had to make sure. (He said all these things in our annual band banquet.) As soon as he mentioned "she", I kept swaring. "Oh, shit, shit shit shit SHIT!" I was trying to hold back me tears. It worked. Always does. I immediately pointed out in my head that I remember the Honor Band this year. The only girl percussionist was me. The band teacher (I shall call him director) mentioned marimbas, xylophones, and mallet stuff. I cried on the inside. My sister, Connie, (yes, I used her as a character in my story, Guardian. Please read that later on.) looked as though she read my ming, and smiled so brightly at me. So, she still looks up to me, huh. Thought that period of admiring your older sister was over. Right when the band director said my name, I heard hollering and loud screams from behind me and all around me. I only formed a small smile on my face as I quickly made my pace to walk up to the stage. I hugged the band director, and everyone went "Awww~!" I quickly made a short bow as I walked off stage. Dude, I was like freaking nervous! There were a lot of people being awarded in this banquet. Even our band director got a plaque and a special pin! Thank Kevin and Elizabeth for this idea! :D Plus, our #1 band mom just graduated at that award banquet, which means she'll be leaving us! :( But, no worries, she'll still contact us if we need to see her or that we miss her. :) When the band banquet was over, most people left because it was around 8:45 PM?? Whatever. I'm still on that shock process. Almost everyone I was familiar with who stayed after the banquet was over hugged me in sweet embraces. They kept congratulating me. I felt so happy. Josh said he admitted that he thought he deserved the award, but just as well, he felt proud I got the award. As he said that, he kept kissing the top of my head as he hugged me tightly. I felt so confused. Was he... jealous? I felt bad. Later on, I heard from Konini (yeah, sometimes I call her that!) that Josh and David were the only ones so far who didn't think I deserved the award. I know how Josh felt, and I'm glad he admitted it, but I didn't know why David felt that way about me. I got a bit upset. I wish he was more open to me like Josh was. I'm still shocked over the small plaque I got. Percussion Musician of the Year 2009-2010. I'm not revealing my real name yet, but I'll tell you that my name was printed on it. :D This band year has been interesting for me. I'm going to miss the seniors - they'll no longer be hanging out in the band room during class now! D: I'm going to be a senior! *shock* Just finished SATs in the early morning with Ry. We went to Norwalk High School to take them. Can't mention any stuff, though. Sorry. :( Now I will be taking the ACT this Saturday morning at Los Alamitos High School. Why there? My father's taking me, and he'll be going to the horse racing track while I take my exams. Silly fathers.:) Love my daddy! I'm a daddy's little girl. hehe~ I have to think about my future now! Argg~! I'm actually sticking to music as my major. I believe I can become a talented musician in the Asian entertainment industry. Xiao Yu Dian, fighting! Jiayou! My mother wanted me to be a doctor, but depending on how many people I know pursuing the medical career, I'd predict that in the future, there will be too many people not knowing anything else but medicine! Haha~! I'm thinging about dying my hair burgundy. People think I look similar to my sister to the point of thinking that that 4ft 9 inched sister of mine is me! I'm a foot taller than her, at least!
I feel like not many people are reading my blogs, so it wouldn't matter if I post some of my real photos in my blog sometime soon, like, during the summer? I realize maybe I should just be myself. I hate being mysterious for a long time. But for now, please still call me "Xiao Yu Dian". I also posted up 3 pictures that I took by myself last year. It was during a Knotts Berry Farm trip I went to with 2 of my best friends since middle school. I think I'll still post idol pictures from the web, since I don't take a lot of pictures. Also, I'm a moral supporter for certain asian singers/actors. :) Formal dances or INformal dances? To me, either is fine, but if you want to get loose and party, I'd go with INformal dances. Formal dances are for organized events and mostly school formalities (still organized). Lately, this school year, I've had half and half. I went to a Winter formal, but instead of the dance being held at a more fancy areas than my school, it ended up being in a gym due to budget cuts. Sadies Dance was where lots of people went to and got "busy", if you know what I mean....hahaha.... ;-) As for prom, well, I'm supposed to go this year, right? Since I'm currently a junior in high school. But, it passed already. And I didn't go. Why, I don't know. I guess I felt I should lose weight to fit in a cheap prom dress. I'm kind of at the heavy side, but compare me to the other typical girls in my school, I'm sort of average. Maybe it's because I wear sporty clothes or clothes thst boys would wear. And that's probably why I STILL don't wear dresses or skirts anymore. Which is partly why I should just go to parties rather than "dances" which requires formal dress code... I need more vacation time. I think everyone in school needs more vacation time. Been getting more stress lately due to projects, reports, extra credits, skits - can't take it anymore! Need a break!~ There are times when it's drizzling raining, and I'm right inside the classroom, trying to concentrate on writing and studying, but then I look outside. ...do you know that nervous feeling you get when exams are coming up? Then, I start to lose it, randomly asking aloud: "Man, wouldn't it be great to just go to the beach at this time?" Few people around me would look at me for a bit, thinking about how weird I am. You know the longest talk in my life? It was when I was on my new cell phone. It was for 40 minutes! Yes, that's long for me, because I don't talk much! Hahaha~~~~! It was one of my best guy friends. And no, not boyfriends. I talked for that long with him, and all we talked about was: "What are you doing right now? I'm bored." HAHAHAHAHAHA~!!!!! Yeah yeah, we both had nothing to do. I can also remember both of us telling each other about what we're watching. He never talks much on the phone, so I keep asking him if he's actually paying attention. He keeps saying yes, and that he's really bored so it was alright to talk to him. But, I felt like a bothersome to him, seeing as I talk more around him than around anyone else. It's just that I usually don't talk as much as I do now, being all "quiet, shy, innocent" and all that other stuff that I try to portray in front of most people. Why am I so busy? Maybe it's because I have so many responsibilities as a junior high schooler in America. Just got a text from ChaCha system. It's my daily horoscope. It says: Neptune, planet of illusion, makes it hard for you to keep your feet on solid ground now. All is not what it appears. Be cautious. Does this mean I still have to keep being busy? Awww~~~~ this sucks!
During 2010 of February, I signed up for a extra credit activity from my French 2 teacher. Who would've thought she meant the Salsa Club performing for spirit week. It was on a Hat Day. Yes, a Hat Day. Everyone thought my legs looked sexy with the black tights, but those tights were too small for me. While we were dancing on the quad stage, I felt my tights going down quickly, but you can't tell from the dress I'm wearing. We did all right, but I wasn't satisfied with my own part of the performance. At least I got the full 100 extra credit points for my grade. I ended up with an A in that class. :-) Every single day the question's been aired into my head:
Korean Pop versus Mandarin Chinese Pop?
I think both are all right, because Korean Pop gives you these dance moves that are cool to incorporate into your own creativity when it comes to dancing.
Mandarin Chinese Pop gives you this happy feeling like you can sing along and feel like a star.
If I would ever have to perform as a permanent national singer, I wouldn't.
Because I feel conversing into different cultures internationally is a good thing to broaden your horizons and point of view.
Even though it's just music, I'm seriously going to give this a tie.
I've heard that George Lopez has another show.
Man, that guy can be pretty funny.
He has a talkshow called Lopez Tonight during weeknights.
Please support this funny man. Hahaha.
When February passes by, it feels as if there wasn't a month to begin with.
A month of romance just passes by as if it didn't exist.
Well, not for me.
I'm still single, but not desperate, and that's how I still stay standing, never having my lips touch another person's...
Oh! I forgot!
I'm taking 2 exams this June!
Yup, yup, I have to take the SAT exam at NL High School and the next week ACT at another LA High School.
This is a video of Zhang Xuan - Bao Bei. This video has English subtitles AND Pinyin Lyrics.
这是一个视频的章吁鹌-保北。此影片已英文字幕,并拼音歌词。
Enjoy. :]
享受。 :]
Now, let's keep up with Jin Ai Princess:
现在,让我们跟上靳哎公主 :
1. 1st week of February - Monday was PJ Day and Sun Tan Shuai Princess's birthday. Tuesday was Twin Day, but Jin Ai didn't participate in it. It was also Jackie Princess and Tony Prince's birthday.
Wednesday was Stoplight Day; meaning red for relationship, yellow for currently seeing each other, and green for single. Meng Ping Li Prince wore a yellow shirt with a handmade sign that said [Currently Single] in green on the front shirt. On the back of his shirt, it says [Currently Taken] in red. How smart was that! Jin Ai only wore green.
Thursday was Decades Day, and Jin Ai just wore her usual "unusual outfits" that stand out so well, but at the same time no one wants to notice her so she blends in easily.Friday was Rivalry Day, so she wore travel uniform to the Spirit Rally at the gym in school.
It was the deadline for buying roses at lunchtime. Jin Ai became a little "errand boy" and Fan Mei Shen Prince wanted to give a Valentine gift to his girlfriend, Er Kun Ning Princess through Jin Ai's connections in high school; since he's a junior high schooler.
...Jin Ai doesn't know why she's blogging this date. This date must have been special, since she marked it. Must have something to do with either Bei Jing Nu Prince or Hu Rui You Prince...
The preschool-kindergarden classes from church not only celebrated Valentine's Day, but also celebrated Jin Ai's mother's birthday.
学前班- kindergarden班由教会不仅庆祝情人节,但也庆祝靳矮的母亲的生日。
5. February 16th - President's Day
5 。 2月16日-总统日
This was not only a holiday, but Guan Rong Xian Princess and Ma Man Rui Princess's birthdays. There was also a drumline practice, and again Jin Ai doesn't remember what important event happened at that drumline.
6. February 19th - District Honor Band Concert at Excel High
6 。 2月19日-区荣誉音乐会在Excel中高
Jin Ai's mother bought 2 pieces of weird outfits for her to wear that night. The Jia family was just there to watch Xiao Mei perform with the concert band. Lui Jing Xian Prince thought Jin Ai looked "eccentric".
7. February 21st - Drumline practice and Jackie Princess's birthday
7 。 2月21日-乐鼓热线实践和成龙公主的生日
Everyone knows about that now.
人人了解,现在。
8. February 26th - Ping Li's leave for the Philippines
8 。 2月26日-李平的离开菲律宾
Jin Ai sang in private to Ping Li the "Wen Hou Ge" song. He raised an eyebrow once she made some eye contact with him throughout the singing. Jin Ai saw Ping Li's small, soft smile forming. She got nervous and messed the lyrics up in the end. She ran up to hug him. She told him she'd miss him. Ping Li reassured that he'll come back in 2 weeks.
Then, Jin Ai let go of hugging and pulled something from her vest. It was the Pinyin lyrics and English subtitles to "Wen Hou Ge". She gave the folded printed lyrics to Ping Li, then ran off a bit, saying:
"Keep this with you always, okay?" Ping Li nodded politely. Guys like him - Jin Ai would love to go for as her boyfriend. But, she knows it will never be. He might not have the same feelings for her. So, she pushes her feelings for him aside and moves on to the next world.
9. February 27th - Montie High at nighttime for drumline performance
9 。 2月27日- Montie高,夜间为乐鼓热线性能
Jin Ai's school's drumline, Suburban High, performed professionally at their best at Montie High School. It was awesome. :]
靳癌的学校的乐鼓热线, 郊区高,表现在他们的专业最好Montie高中。这很可怕。 :]
10. Last day of February - 1st Drumline Show
10 。 2月最后一天-第一乐鼓热线查看
The Surburban High Drumline got 1st place! Yes! Although there was a lot of flukes during the standstill performance, the performance was still the best! Yeah~~~ baby!
