current selection | madeleine ost – track 17 (i cant read korean!)
feelin’ | the munchies
m3ntal note: amino calpis tastes like water! no wonder its not bad for you. grr. also of note, calpis soda is not good for you, but lemon/lime calpis soda is. and they taste the same! go fig. but the lemon/lime calpis is also harder to track down. can’t remember whether i found it at jasmart or sunrise. er. while we’re on the topic of do’s and donts…those gyozas in the fancy colored bags? day-lee i think? they suck…the skin is like pudding and the filling is mediocre. yokohama gyozas (the ones that come in 4 trays of 12) use a better skin, but their fillings bleh! top choice is and always will be yokohama chinatown (which i can only find at m2m). tastes jus like the ones my mom makes! so unless she intends on coming into the city in the near future and making a big batch for me, yokohama chinatown gyoza’s the shiz.

funny how yesterdays topic was how shaolin soccer was being shown in cantonese. upon a friends recommendation, i bought the korean movie il mare yesterday. mmm…ji-hyun jun. im all excited and shit…so after i get back from the gym and take a shower, i cook up some tortellini and pop in the movie. as the movie starts, ji-hyun suddenly starts spouting mandarin! im like, stupid default settings. i go into the audio menu and change the settings. ni hao….di ma lei….ni hao….di ma lei. its only in mandarin and cantonese? argh!! who does that? the least they couldve done was to include the original korean audio! so i spent all day today running from dvd store to dvd store. kims video had the same version that i had…and the 2 stores down in chinatown didnt even have it. grr. so now im jus going to order it over the internet. buggers.
anyhoo…so im back in union square and im about to head over to catch a bus in front of the palladium. as im about to cross 14th, i hear someone holler my name. im like, eh? i turn around and shit, i ran right by grace, my old roma cohort! we’d kept in touch a little after graduation, but we more or less jus lost contact with each other b/c we both sucked like that. we talk as we walk over to virgin, where grace was meeting dre, another cornellian. we talk, trade numbers, and then split. ok…so hopefully this time we’ll actually do the keeping in touch thing.
