WOW

i went group hopping last nite and met a lot of nice ppol and saw some familiar faces. one of these belonged to joe choe from leland, whom i know better as rebeka's (from good sam) boyfriend. anyways, we were doing the usual "what are you up to?" conversation thing, and as a joke, i asked, "so are you gonna pop the question to becky anytime soon?" and he says, "i did. last week." ((o__o))!!

now the fact that both of them are younger than me lends it some shock value (altho a lot of people are getting married fricken young these days) but that's not what the WOW is for. check out how he proposed to her: www.joeandrebeka.com. it is the cutest thing i have seen in ages. and the last page was so touching... WOW. rebeka is one of the most smiley and bright girls i have ever met and seeing such happiness come to her reminds me that things in the world can be so right.

hrm... aside from that, i learned that stanford law school is really adiverse. i think i made that word up btw; if it's real, i'll be dumbstruck. anyways, their classes are 90% caucasian. sucks for the whole diversity experience thing, but i guess it is reality in a lot of neighborhoods. so every thursday, they do a "bar review" (hahaha. :P) and bar hop in the stanford area. that's gotta be great business for those bars cuz there's a ton of them stanford students. i went cuz i was curious how prestigious law students present themselves. it's definitely a different feel from med student gatherings. interesting to say the least, and always a pleasure seeing the lovely seb.

prior to party hopping, i went to barnes to try to work on my essay, but somehow, i ended up with a huge stack of books, taking up two chairs in a corner of the children's section, totally oblivious to time and the outside world cuz i forgot my cell in the car. i luv how reading good shit can do that to you. food for the soul. books i want to read: veronika decides to die (paolo coehlo), eleventh minute (paolo coehlo), *reread* the alchemist (pc), dumb love *children's book* <--luv these (kathleen jeffrie johnson), angels and demons (dan brown), *reread* the dark trilogy (phillip pullman), the kite runner (khaled hosseim), the problem of pain (cs lewis)... i'm gonna storm the library next week. ^__^ and i bought a book about a pediatric heart surgeon--curious about the profession; mebbe i'll get some ideas.

chulsok is this weekend. free korean culture show in union square this saturday afternoon! :D

which reminds me of something... who would you consider closer? an aunt you never met or an acquaintance in your class? who would you cry more for if they died? when you're watching e! and they do a biography on someone famous and you're touched by their life and death, are those the same feelings of grief you would feel? when someone close to you dies, then, is it for them or for yourself?

ooh, and speaking of death... so weird. a couple days ago i had the freakiest dream that ashbitch had somehow lured me into her home and was subversively trying to torture me. and THEN, yesterday i see one of the three people i hate in the world. ashbitch being one of them, and the girl i saw last nite being another. scaaary.
