Reach Out

My parents want me to take Mandarin major in college. Do I need to say more? I don't want to study Mandarin!!! I'm so done with all this. I don't want to have 'optional skills' that are too common (No offense.) How many non-Chinese people in the world who speaks Chinese? And how many non-Hispanic people in the world who speaks Spanish? Huh. Not as much as Chinese obviously.

And then they were talking about, "What if you go to a job interview, and then they ask you what other language do you speak, and you only say Spanish. and then they're like 'Oh, sorry. we don't use Spanish for our company'?!"

PUH-LEEZE! That's not my style. I don't work for people, people work for ME. I don't do what other tells me to do, because I tell people what to do (Unless for certain occasions and purposes). I don't go to job interviews to get hired -- I go to job interviews to HIRE people. I'm not someone's assistant, I'm the one someone assists. I'm Blair Waldorf, not Jenny Humphrey.

I so don't wanna do the back rows and all. I always want to be on top. The leader. Someday... There'll be my name in big gold letters on a big building in Manhattan or Century City. It'll be the brand of clothing that those big-time celebs wear to the Grammys, and the one the stars wear in a hit TV show. It'll be my name that those little kids scream during a red carpet session. It'll be me that those moms came up to and say "You are a great role model for my daughter". Someday, it'll be me.

Why do I chose something different? Because if someone needs it, I could get paid big-time. Probably bigger than people with common skills. If someone's looking for something different, and I'm the one they're looking for, I'm far more successful than the others.

Ex. : The Wizards Of Waverly Place episode where they learn about the time-reversing spell. and then Max made a one-of-a-kind sandwich and got offered for a major sandwich deal. Then Alex reverses time for 17 times, and then the beardy guy just don't like it because it's just... common. Imagine if Justin didn't mess up 17 times and Alex didn't have to reverse time, the Russos would be RICH! and that's exactly what I believe will happen to me. I know I can make it happen. I am my own director of my life.

I want to go to Spanish Lit, Fashion Design, Psychology, Performing Arts, or Architectural Design major. Not Mandarin or Japanese. If I did get to Mandarin (Even though I hope not!), then my how-many years in college would be pointless. What's the use? Why would I reach out something I don't want? It's like standing between an apple tree and a pine tree. Apple tree is the Spanish major and all, while the pine tree is Chinese major. What's the point to climb out the pine tree, when I want to reach out for one apple way over there?

NO. I am my own director of my life. I decide which path I will use. I decide what's best for me. I decide what major will I take. I decide. No one has the right to do that, but me. No one. N-O O-N-E. Not even my parents, teachers, headmistress (That witch!), SBY, or even OBAMA could do.

Music Update!

Another subscriber! 4 down, 46 to go. Phew, that's... still a long way to go. But, no sweat! Do you know why? 'CUZ I'M LEARNING GUITAR! Yes, I just had my first guitar lesson last Thursday. Well, we're learning classic guitar. But once you can do one genre, the other just needs a little refining. And, I show my music teacher my original songs (Thank goodness!) and he's gonna find the chords for me! YAYYY!

One other thing, though. I wouldn't be getting a mic, but I should get the digital camera fixed. My cell phone camera result is CRAP! Too bad my parents don't know about this. If they do, I can go "Mom, can I get a mic for recording my video?" or "Dad, can we fix the digital camera? I need it for recording videos and upload it to YouTube." at this case, what am I going to say? Photography? I'll work something out.

It's Me Singing!

I have YouTube channel. Me singing covers of songs. Well, for now. I'm planning to post my own song in the future (I'm taking guitar lesson this Thursday! YAY!) and repair the digital camera! I've been recording the videos with my cell phone camera, which kind of sucks. And I need the digital camera to attract more users and even subscribers. Currently, I have three subscribers. My goal is 50. So, it's still 47 to go.

Future Covers:
- Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney (Requested Cover)
- You Can by David Archuleta
- Somebody Out There by David Archuleta
- White Horse by Taylor Swift
- You Belong With Me by Taylor Swift
- Thinking Of You by Katy Perry
- I Will Be by Leona Lewis/Avril Lavigne

Wow. Still... 11 videos to make. Well, I'm gonna do 'Beautiful Soul' first, then 'Just Dance' and 'I Will Be'. The acoustic songs will be posted later, as soon as I can do guitar. Can't wait!

Just a little preview...

A Soap Opera Spin-Off In Real Life

There were the days when you feel like you're with the right people in the right people. Like you're at the top of the world. Everyone likes you. You're good and right at everything. You're so grateful of your life. It seemed like your life was just perfect. Nothing could stop you from doing anything. Until...

You found out that your friends were talking about your bad things behind your backs. They're talking about how spoiled and smart-ass you are. About how mature you act, think, and talk until they don't even understand you. They're talking about how annoying you are, until none of them wants to sit with you in class ever again.

You're thinking about changing your attitude, so that you can still fit in. So you could still be the part of the in-crowd. You didn't want to let go, because the clique was the only place.

But it won't work. This clique is NOT the place where you belong. These people are not your real friends. Real friends don't talk about each other behind their backs. Real friends care about their friends' feelings. Real friends tell the truth. No matter how hurtful it is.

I thought I knew these people so well. But I guess I was wrong. They're just as pathetic as those other pendedoras who betrayed me in the past. It's a shame how stupid I am to believe them. How stupid I am to get stuck in this drama all over again.I've had enough of this. I'm done with the shallow-mindedness. I'm done with the childishness. I'm SICK of this drama! These people might have let me down today. But let me tell you something; I'm going to be a great person one day, whom they look up to, and they're going to regret letting me down back in the day. We'll see about that. No one messes with me. Because no matter how hard I fell, I'll get up again. I won't give up on myself. And I will get out of this drama.

One thing though; You don't need to be the cast of 'The Hills', 'Gossip Girl', or '90210' to get this type of drama. Join the club.
