Coffee, bubble tea, a Bellini, Pho, Dragon Ball / December BBT Tally / Questions 2601-2650 of 5000

Why did it take me 2.5 hours to write up this entry?!

Finally, I'm back home! Went to the hockey game with Jon, Nathan, and Melissa: it turned out that one of the tickets Steph gave us from her workplace was refunded already (their mistake, not hers), so Nathan had to pay $35 to get another ticket! (what was he going to do for three hours to hang out?!) I was hesitant to go down the steps because of the lack of a railing.. going up was fine, though. It was a good game between the US and the Swiss... there were chants of "Let's go, Switzerland!" and "US sucks!" from the crowd at various times. Jon made up his own variations incorporating United Arab Emirates, Lithuania, Kazakhstan, Dubai (apparently, a lot of people from his residence last year were from there), China, Russia, Trinidad and Tobago, and other countries. The Swiss won Nathan's heart ("I want Lindt chocolate after the game, yo!") by scoring two goals in the third to make the game score respectable at 2-2, although they couldn't really do anything off their forecheck. Lots of penalties, and the translation into French of the various calls were a cool touch. At least it was worth the $35 for Nathan, although of course it would have been better if it were free!

After that, we had dinner at Pho while Melissa met her friend Matt elsewhere, then we met at the Laughing Bean coffee shop for a coffee (iced mocha!) before going to church. Nathan decided to skip Fellowship, and the irony was that we actually got there on time instead of being late as usual. Jon went across the street to Dave's place for a dinner, while I went to Bible Study. There were only eight people anyhow, so I discussed a lot of stuff with Frances / Randal / Connie / Stella / Kevin / Ivan / Karen: weight-related remarks by relatives, turkey, brine, beer, tailgate parties, Bible Study stuff, grandmothers passing away / becoming Christians, funerals, Christmas, plans, our weeks, books, cooking shows (Martin Yan, Julia Child, Martha Stewart), etc. When Jon got there, Frances couldn't recognize his voice since he was slowly getting it back: people asked him what he was doing in Toronto, then moved from there to Kevin's health inspection stuff. It was good times, heh.

Then it was off to a surprisingly uncrowded Dragon Ball to meet Dave and a few more people: I had a Chinese pear bubble tea, while Jon mixed blueberry and yogurt together with grass jelly and THEN added his friend's mango with pearls into his existing drink. I think it's a good thing I tasted his drink BEFORE he started mixing things together, haha. The guys mostly discussed Ali G and his funny skits before switching to tomorrow's plans which involve a wedding and such. I don't know how I'm going to get to Eric's tomorrow for the hockey game / movies: maybe I'll call Chinese Eric when I get up, heh. Not sure I'll make it for movies with the girls tomorrow, but you never know. First priority: catch up, and THEN sleep! ;)

Jon called Steph: she, Vivian S., Melissa, her friend Matt, and Kenny were all at Milestones waiting for Terrence to show up. "We" decided to drop by and say hi, which took an hour. Ah well, I certainly didn't mind! My sister decided to introduce Matt to a bunch of family in-jokes, but at least she has a little more tact about it than certain other female family members of mine. When the Poo Help Doctor showed up, we explained that the Bellini they'd ordered for him couldn't be virginized because it was all premixed... for some reason, it went to me by default while Steph told everyone at the table about New Year's dinner last year at the townhouse. Then Terrence told the story of how he and Steph had met: by her very spontaneous invitation for him to go to her church since she was bored and listening in to others' conversations during class, haha. They apparently know some really rich dude who would bring caviar / smoked salmon / wine for them to try, and loaned Steph his wheels to go grocery shopping: of course she'd buy stuff for Terrence, but not tell the rich dude!

Oh, and apparently the dude was so sheltered (being raised by a Chinese drill sergeant of a father that didn't want his mind "polluted with sexual knowledge") that he didn't know what a maxipad or tampon was until the age of 20! This one time at Steph's residence, Terrence told people this joke: "What sucks blood and has wings, but doesn't fly?" My sister decided to give Rich Dude an object lesson, so she ran upstairs to get some maxipads and tampons for him. On the way down, she tripped and little wrapped packages went flying everywhere. The postman chose this inconvenient time to arrive, and my sister was SO embarrassed since he knew her face! (Mom sent her packages every two weeks or so) Afterwards, Rich Dude opened a package up and asked them if this wasn't a wetnap! Hahaha! We also discussed my mom's un-regiftable Christmas present to her last year of a bottle of Metamucil, plus Steph's converting some work manager to All-Bran by a casual remark about constipation! Good times, haha.

Got these questions from this QuestionClub LJ post by Arthurbulla. I'm going to post the survey in 50-question batches, like the original. No worries there! Five thousand questions and answers wouldn't fit as an entry, anyhow. :P

The only complete copy... you'll have to go around erasing answers.

2604. What is the best show on TV? No clue.

2605. Are you more of a tape dispenser or a stereo speaker, and why? Tape dispenser, because I can't control my giving impulses. :P

2606. What do you think is overrated? Celebrities, being overly cheerful, and bubblegum pop / "punk" music.

What is underrated? Metal, downtime, and food.

2607. Can spiders ump? No, I seriously doubt they have umpiring abilities. :P

Did you interpret that as "jump," "hump," "bump," or other words? No, I'm pretty literal. So it was "ump" as in "umpiring."

2608. What's the matter with adults today? We've lost the ability to be like children in a GOOD way.. wondering, spontaneous, and innocent.

2609. Have you ever worked "off the books"? No.

2610. Have you ever worked for a mean boss? No.

If not, do you think you ever will? Yes.

2611. Do men or woman make better bosses? Women.

2612. Do you believe that people should move up through a company, or that the higher up positions should be filled by people hired from outside the company? The first one.

2613. Why is it that no one seems to care about their job? Because the job's not satisfying.

2614. When I go into a store, why doesn't anyone know anything about what they are selling? Because they don't care.

2615. Have you ever seen those people that get that blank, lost expression when they go into a store and kinda shuffle along like zombies? Yes.

Do you wonder how they got up, dressed themselves, and made it to the store in the first place? Sometimes.

2616. Do you value college? Sure.

2617. When will Eminem stop whining about his bad childhood and move on?? He won't. (the original answer was way defensive of Eminem and his upbringing)

2618. I am drug free. Are you drug free? Yes.

2619. I have no tattoos or piercings. Do you? No.

2620. Can you REALLY say that your way is the right way? Yes, sometimes.

Maybe there is a different way for everyone? No.

2621. What do you think of the song Imagine? Original answer: "There are a lot of songs with that name." DUH, obviously the survey maker means the one by John Lennon! *rolleyes* My answer: It's a very good song, and I agree with it.

2622. Can you think of any reason I might have written this, other than I am bored with too much time on my hands? .... you want to give others something to do.

2623. What is the purpose of art? To express yourself.

How about movies? To entertain.

2630. Do you need to be right all the time? Not really, but it would be nice. ;)

2631. There was a sculpture that was supposed to be displayed for a week in the Rockefeller Center in NYC of a falling woman - designed as a memorial to those who jumped or fell to their death from the World Trade Center. It was complained about as grotesque, inappropriate, and described as "not art." What do you think? I can see that point of view.

It was taken down early because it was seen as "offensive." What do you think about that? Good!

The artist, Fischl, said in a statement: "It was a sincere expression of deepest sympathy for the vulnerability of the human condition. Both specifically towards the victims of Sept. 11, and towards humanity in general." Are people just too sensitive? Or maybe people are NOT sensitive ENOUGH to the idea that others may have different views from them (or from the majority)? You're right on both points.

Should these different, opposing, or offensive views be allowed to be expressed freely and openly? Yes.

Why or why not? Because there IS a right to free speech within reason, and this doesn't transcend those boundaries.

2632. What letter's sound do you like the best? S.

2633. What is the last movie you watched? Syriana.

2634. Do you act the same when you are alone as you do when people are watching? No.

2635. Why is everyone so obsessed with superheroes? No clue... we all want to be like them.

2636. What clichés do you hear over-used the most? Too many to list.

2637. Do you handle inconveniences well? No.

2638. Are you a fan of Jackie Chan? He's okay.

2639. Is a promise a big deal? Yes, a huge deal. For me.

2640. What is your place in the universe? Don't know if I have one.

2641. Once, some scientists dug up a woolly mammoth, frozen in ice. It was still completely whole, not rotted or fossilized. The scientists decided to have a dinner party. It was a very posh affair. They served roast woolly mammoth steaks, the rarest meat in all the world. So, if you were invited, would you have eaten it? That would never happen. But if it did, I'd probably take pictures and post 'em up online. Maybe I'd eat it, heh. Or not, depending on my mood.

2642. What are 3 things you DON'T want to know? Graphic details of people's sex lives, how people can be so uncaring in the face of terrible world disasters, and how sausages are made.

2643. It seems to me that a lot of people don't value their lives, or life in general very highly. Why do you suppose that is? Because theirs sucks.

Are you like that? I hope not.

2644. Do you celebrate the harvest moon? Not really.

2645. Do you believe in out-of-body experiences? Yes and no.

2646. Why does so much depend upon a red wheelbarrow glazed with rainwater beside the white chickens? ... o_O

2647. Why do so many people get jobs that they dislike? Because that's the only thing they CAN get.

2648. Do you think that in THIS world, being creative is a handicap? No.

Why or why not? Because it's a good thing!

2649. Do you ever get chills or shivers during movies? What movies? Yeah, usually when there's something climactic going on.

2650. Do you believe in the collective unconsciousness (that people are like onions.. the outer layers are individualistic, and the deeper you go, the more similar we all are)? Sure, to a certain extent.

Christmas cards, dinner, Zulu, and plans

I got Christmas cards from Nyssa (giggles_19) and Rachel (cynicalsiren) today! Rachel included a very cute Hello Kitty drawing with her card... my mom would be ALL over it (since her name is Kitty and all), but I'm not letting her touch it or even know about it! (she tends to be a bit... weird... about these sorts of things... :P)

Currently having an MSN conversation with my brother: it's the optimum way to talk if you've lost your voice like he has! ;) He wanted to go to Zulu Records this week, but since we're meeting Nathan and Melissa at 3:30 PM at the church to go to the US-Switzerland World Juniors hockey game, it's a bit out of the way. Ah well, as long as we can have a ride home from white Eric (although Jon says we'd probably be welcome to hang with him and his Toronto friends) after Fellowship, I'm good to go. Thank goodness we can eat after the game, which should end at 6:30-ish. We get about an hour or so to do that, so joy for having cash! :D (I am NOT a food addict! :P )

Poo on social interaction!

Dinner with Jon, Terrence, Melissa, Terrence's friend Kenny, and my parents was okay... my mom needs to learn tact and not tell me that I need to be taught things I already know! (like it being polite to chip in for parking: gee thanks, Mom: I would NEVER have known that if it weren't for you telling me! *rolleyes* ) She should also quit bringing up certain family in-jokes in front of others, which also goes for my brother. Teasing because they love me: you should know if it makes people UNCOMFORTABLE! Too much of that tonight for my taste... if you really loved me, you wouldn't tease me! :P

Too bad Jon lost his voice, though... Melissa was saying that last night at the hockey game, he'd open up the text message function to type whatever he wanted to say to her, then hold it up. That works, heh.. and apparently Nathan's going with us tomorrow to the US-Switzerland hockey game, so that's cool. Terrence has this loud laugh: we were saying that he and Steph should have a contest to see who was actually louder, haha. He discussed being quarantined in this little house on campus at the height of SARS paranoia: the people in charge didn't give him any food! Steph and people from church gave him what he needed by leaving it on the doorstep, ringing the doorbell, then running away! Jon says he'll email me to make plans for tomorrow: that sounds better than Mom just TELLING me (under the guise of "asking") what to do! I don't react well to that, and she should know. (of course, knowing her, she'd probably dismiss it as my being "cranky"... whatever!) So yeah.. poo on social interaction, especially with certain people. :P


This is the newest icon I added to my collection: thanks, Amy! It definitely fits this post, as well. ;)

Taking excess skin and fat off chicken in dreams / Old Spaghetti Factory ultimatums / quizzes

I dreamed about taking the excess fat / skin off raw chicken, just like I used to do when I lived with my parents. Very weird, but I'm not going to tell them about that... I know better, haha.

I checked my email just now: apparently, what I told Corey at 5:30 AM about "rumors of dinner" is true. Thank goodness, since it's more my speed. It doesn't get me away from certain people, but I guess I can't have everything! I presumably need to bus over there before 5:30... eh, I'll figure something out. ;) ("Mel has gone downtown shopping for the day... and if you're not here before 5:30, I guess you won't be going"... did I ever mention I hate that kind of thing?! :P)

Guess I'm off to take a shower....

In the year 2006, I resolve to: Forget my New Year's Resolution. Get your resolution here

Haha, sounds good to me! ;)



WAAAAAHH!! Your inner Bombshell is the zany
Lucille Ball! You like making people laugh, but
also know how to turn on the glamour when the
time is right. To most guys, you're the perfect
all-around gal. But sometimes you get into
trouble and have a heckuva time talking your
way out of it. You may be accident-prone on the
outside, but you're a first class business woman
on the inside. A pioneer, so to say. Lucy can
still be seen hamming it up on her most famous
television series I Love Lucy.


Who is your inner bombshell?

What "Happy Bunny" phrase are you? you suck and that's sad You are a very compassionate and sympathetic person. You use your divine sense of humor to cheer up a situation.

Click Here to Take This Quiz Brought to you by YouThink.com quizzes and personality tests.

The Librarian-IspLO You scored 34% self-confidence, 34% spontaneity, 53% symbolic-ness, and 64% orbigidity!

The Librarian You are: Insecure / Semi-Spontaneous / Literal / Orbigid The test tracks 4 variables, which are as follows: Insecurity v. Self-Confidence (the social sphere; please note that self-confidence is not a measure of self-esteem) Spontaneity v. Structuredness* (how one arranges activities in daily life) Symbolic-ness v. Literal-ness (way of looking at stuff and, particularly, expressing oneself) Orbigidity v. Banaciousness (way of dealing with information, particularly in the social realm) Most of those are pretty straightforward, I think, except the last. I couldn't find the perfect words to describe what I was trying to measure with that variable (my good friend Thesaurus.com was of no help), so I decided to make up new words because I am better than the English language. Basically... orbigidity is the tendency to look closely at everything, to make sure things are thorough, to investigate and often over-analyze people and situations; banaciousness, which we shall call the opposite of orbigidity, is a carefree acceptance of most things without meticulous examination. If, for example, you'd spend hours writing an OKCupid test only to spend more hours going back and checking for typos or any other possible reason the test-takers might think you are stupid or pretentious, then you are probably more orbigid than banacious. *If your spontaneity score is an uppercase letter ("S" for more structured or "P" for more spontaneous), then it means you take an extreme on one end of the spectrum. The lowercase "sp", however, denotes a way of life that is neither extremely organized / structured / planned, nor extremely impulsive. Yep. So thanks for taking my test and stuff.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 7% on self-confidence You scored higher than 5% on spontaneity You scored higher than 69% on symbolic-ness You scored higher than 77% on orbigidity

Thank goodness we won the Nashville hockey game! / Questions 2501-2550 of 5000

We won 4-3 against Nashville tonight, so I guess it was a good game for Melissa and Jon to attend... the only thing was that the Coyotes scored 38 seconds into the game. There was a great flurry around the Vancouver goal near the end of the game, but thank goodness Morrison took the puck out of that zone! Now the Canucks face a tough test of mettle: 14 out of the next 18 games are on the road, starting with the NYE affair against Minnesota... which we hope to watch at Eric M.'s place. The three stars were Jovanovski, Bertuzzi, and Marek Zidlicky.

Got these questions from this QuestionClub LJ post by Arthurbulla. I'm going to post the survey in 50-question batches, like the original. No worries there! Five thousand questions and answers wouldn't fit as an entry, anyhow. :P

The only complete copy... you'll have to go around erasing answers.

50% off Guinness AND Ripley's books?!

This afternoon was spent making plans with Jon. I eventually showed Melissa how to get to the 98 B-Line bus stop JUST in time to catch a bus. She didn't mind going to the coffee shop to meet Jon before the game on her own, which was fine with me.. she'll be sleeping over at my parents' tonight. Then I went to the mall and got Ripley's Believe It Or Not: Planet Eccentric! and the newest Guinness World Records book for 2006... both were more than 50% off! :D

I figured that if my own mother doesn't listen to me about what I want (or promises it, then doesn't deliver... and this hasn't been the first time, either: I remember the "pooping jellybean moose being less expensive than the Guinness 2003 book and you'd like it more" excuse), I might as well give myself the gifts I've wanted. :P

Afterwards, I had some sushi for a late lunch before going home. I got Christmas cards from Darren and John, which further put a cheery stamp on the day! Now to relax and do some reading...

The Fiery Cross You scored 71% Outlander Points!

You've read the Books, probably more than once. Either that, or you have a very good memory. You've probably decided that Jamie is your dream man and you've kept an eye out for stone circles in your travels. While not obsessed, you know what's good. And that's Jamie.

My test tracked 1 variable How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 0% on sassenachpoints

Link: The Diana Gabaldon's Outlander Test written by sassenach on Ok Cupid, home of the 32-Type Dating Test

Broke four million points in Bookworm! / Questions 2451-2500 of 5000

Earlier tonight while Melissa was doing a bunch of book reflections as homework / studying, I attained a new Bookworm high score: 4,091,740 / Level 41 / Bookworm Supreme / 3:11:20 on Tuesday, 12.27.05!

Everything is closed today! / Downtown plans / How I should improve in 2006

I called my mom this morning, and she insisted that she'd called Melissa yesterday even though it didn't register on her cell phone. Most weird... she also said that Terrence had called her, and we might get together on Thursday. Steph apparently suggested that Mel and I go to the Foggy Dew Irish Pub near my place to watch the hockey games... that might be fine if the games today were actually interesting, and if Mom didn't call Foggy Dew "Fogg n'Sudds" to me! (hahahaha...) Then again, Dad is cutting short his Hong Kong trip by two days to be home tomorrow... I wonder what his reaction will be if I characterize Candy's hockey books as the best gift of the year. It's not about the money, it's about the thought involved! ;)

Melissa and I tried going out later to see things in Richmond, but the stuff we wanted to see was closed today since Christmas was on the weekend. We did walk around the Richmond library, which has changed a lot since the last time I was there. (I should really get around to paying things there, heh) At least we had lunch at White Spot, and went to an ATM so she could change her $50 bills to $20 bills! We passed Shanghai Wind, and I told her about that... there was a Dollar Max nearby, so she told me that she thought of my mom every time she saw a dollar store. Heh, I wouldn't be surprised!

When we got home, I found that Jon had emailed us about tomorrow: his plans are better than my mom's, which consist of taking Melissa to the townhouse by 5-ish tomorrow before they go to the Canucks-Predators hockey game. Since he's planning to go downtown tomorrow and do stuff, it works with Mel's plan of meeting her local friend at his coffee shop workplace. Apparently, Mom got a new cell phone.. that works with Melissa not doing the whole long-distance thing, heh. So we'll see what happens tomorrow: meeting up in the actual area before the game works for us, and doesn't have the stamp of HORROR all over it. ;)

How Leslie should improve for 2006: Watch all the Futurama you can, then quote it at random Take this quiz at QuizGalaxy.com

Oh, and apparently Melissa should "read something other than the tabloids." Haha.

Tentative plans / Questions 2401-2450 of 5000

Through a bunch of Googling / looking through the SuperPages, Melissa and I have some ideas of where we should go tomorrow. My mom wants to have lunch with us, but I could definitely use the break... we'll see. ;) Melissa wants to see a Vancouver Holocaust Museum that she found online, but she couldn't find it at my place. So I Googled it, and it turns out that it's closed during all the time that she's in town.. oh well.

Ideas include the Richmond Art Gallery / Museum / Cultural Centre (SO near here!), the UBC Museum of Anthropology, the Lonsdale Quay, the Nitobe Memorial Gardens also at UBC, and stuff that's generally near here / readily accessible by transit. Admission by donation is a good thing, but not if the place is only open from 10 to 2:30! (we'll be up by then, but not have much time to tour the place)

Hockey and plans

Lost 2-1 to the Calgary Flames tonight.. now they're 0-8 against teams from Alberta, and 0-5 so far in this six-game homestand. Kiprusoff's best friend was the post / crossbar, heh. Three stars: Kiprusoff, Jovanovski, and Jordan Leopold. But at least Canada beat Finland 5-1 in the World Junior Hockey Championships!

Melissa and I are trying to figure out what to do on Tuesday / Thursday that's both cost-efficient and interesting. She'll visit a friend at his coffee shop workplace, get her hockey games in, and might want to go to museums and such... I invited her to Eric M.'s NYE hangout to watch the PPV Vancouver-Minnesota game in the afternoon (then movies or such later), but we figure she'll do whatever Steph does. (and that will be figured out when she gets back!) Eric H. is going to that hockey thing, and I think I will too. Now, to look up stuff online that meets our guidelines...

Melissa here, hockey games, sneaky gift-giving, downloading the Internet

Well, Melissa's finally here: too bad Jon's still not feeling well with a fever! I think we won't go shopping today, as there's too many crowds and such at the mall. I think today will be mostly spent chilling: two hockey games on the radio / TV later! (gotta thank Eric H. for making my TV picture green, haha... and I can blame the apartment management for the TV's state of non-workingness, heh) Let's see... Finland game on at 4 (TEAM 1040) and the Canucks-Calgary game at 7 on CKNW. I can always get those Guinness / Ripley's books at a later date, haha... I need to get cash from the bank at some point to pay my sister back for the US-Switzerland tickets, anyhow. Terrence is in town as well, but we'll see what happens with him after everyone gets settled. It'll be cool. :D

Ooh, Chris' mom is SNEAKY... I loaned her a Bathroom Reader a while ago, and I didn't think anything of it when she gave it back to me yesterday. Then I looked at it just now: she'd also given me a card, a lovely velvet bookmark with my name on it in gold (plus a golden heart), and a pretty mitt ornament. Very unexpected, heh. Then again, my sister is sneaky, too... she emailed me a while ago "out of curiosity" to ask if I had (read) The Book of Lists, The Canadian Edition: The Original Compendium of Curious Information. Guess what was in my present from Melissa's family... they also gave me a $20 Chapters gift card, too. So I gave her a notebook and a book in return, hee.


Downloading the Internet

Download progress / Questions 2351-2400 of 5000

I need to get more progress done on this Arrogant Worms download: it was barely half done in 12 hours, sigh. Thank goodness for pausing / resuming downloads! I'll see what I can get done tonight while I sleep, heh.

Got these questions from this QuestionClub LJ post by Arthurbulla. I'm going to post the survey in 50-question batches, like the original. No worries there! Five thousand questions and answers wouldn't fit as an entry, anyhow. :P

The only complete copy... you'll have to go around erasing answers.


2351. Imagine you are in a writing class. You have been split off into groups. Each group must write an essay and read it to the class. When one group reads, you recognize their essay as being plagiarized from the Internet, but the teacher doesn't know it. Do you say something? Yes.

2352. Let's say you decide to wait until after class and tell the teacher in private. The teacher tells you he cannot change the grades of the plagiarizing group because he has already entered them into his grade book. They got the highest grade in the class on this assignment. How do you feel? Like I've been cheated, and like it's really unfair.

What do you do? I tell the vice-principal and maybe he can do something about it.

2353. Imagine that all of your friends at school (or work) have a mutual friend, Ash. One day Ash gets really drunk, throws on a ski mask, and robs the school club treasury (or work petty cash). The next day you hear from friends what Ash did. The principal (or boss) is trying to find out who did it because now there will not be enough money for a senior prom or trip this year (yes, you and your friends are seniors). You know you will lose all of your in-school friends if you rat out Ash. What do you do? I probably wouldn't rat him out, but I might if it could be done privately / anonymously.

2354. If you ran over an animal, would you get out of the car to try and make sure it was okay? Yes.

If it was someone's cat (collared with address), would you knock on their door and apologize, for running over their cat? Probably not... you never know what people will do these days. I might leave an unsigned note, though...

2355. What places do you get energy from? Nathan's! haha

What places drain you of energy? Any place where my mom is, heh.

2356. There is a kid in high school who is horribly teased, picked on, and made fun of. If this teased person sues the people who made fun of them, who should win? He should, for his pain and suffering.

2357. Do you have an interest in:

guns? No.

explosives? No.

Marilyn Manson? Not really.

trench coats? Not really.

the Mafia? Kinda...

death? Sorta...

Satanism? No!

Nazis? Kinda... but the only kind of Nazi I'll ever be is a spelling / grammar Nazi. :P

that Doom game? No.

2358. If some kids shoot up their school because they were made fun of, whose fault is it (the teasers, the kids who shot up the school, the shooters' parents, all, other, etc.)? The teasers, because they drove the kids to take drastic action.

2359. Is sex an act of magic? Probably not...

2360. Why do we drive on the parkway and park in the driveway? No clue.

2361. When do you get your most peaceful and satisfying sleep? When I don't have to get up at a certain time, when I'm not being bothered by worry, etc.

2362. What gets you going in the morning? Knowing something nice will happen.

2363. Are dreams messages? Sometimes.

2364. Do you get along better with guys or girls (as friends)? Guys, probably.

2365. Technology or simplicity? Simplicity.

2366. Just because we can do something in science, does that always mean that we should do it? No!

Is there anything you think we should NOT do? Cloning, stem cell research, etc.

2367. How many points is the letter Z worth in Scrabble? 10.

In your computer, what does RAM stand for? Random access memory.

In poker, which hand is better: four of a kind or a straight? Four of a kind.

What is the official language of Australia? English.

On what continent would you find British Columbia? Original answer: " *shrug* " I have NO words. The answer, of course, is North America. :P

2368. Do you trust your government? Not really.

2369. I am now going to ask one of the hardest questions in the history of the universe...

How are you? I'm good because I'm talking to Corey, and I'm bad because I've had enough of certain situations / people.

2370. What promise could you never keep? I couldn't keep the promise of NOT telling anyone if my friend was going to commit suicide.

2371. No cat has 8 tails. Every cat has one tail more than no cat. How many tails does every cat have? Nine.

2372. How do you feel about green and purple ketchup? Cool, dude.

2373. Why are movie plots so superficial? No idea.

Would you prefer a movie with great character and story, or great special effects (don't pick both, that's cheating)? Great character and story.

2374. Will you marry me? No... you'd have to do something a lot more stupendous than a 5000-Question survey to get my hand in marriage, even if same-sex marriage IS legal here.

2375. You like shopping in the antique store, don't you? Not really.

How about the used book store? Those are awesome!

2376. Use a simile to describe yourself: Leslie is like a solitary plant in a new field of grass.

Good. Now use a metaphor: Leslie is a house in a hurricane.

2377. Say hello to Mr. Praying Mantis outside my window. Uh.. hi?

2378. I have to know... what is the difference between the potty and the loo (I always thought that potty was a common nickname for toilet.. and I thought that loo was the same thing)? The loo is the bathroom, and the potty is the actual toilet.

Also, what are fingerboards? A mini-skateboard for your fingers.

AND what is with "skirts you can't see"? I have absolutely no idea.

If you can't see them, then are you allowed to wear them in school? Of course not!

One more thing. What does it mean when someone is "just wet"? I don't think I should disseminate this information here, since it's of a sexual nature. Go Google it if you're curious. :P

2379. Have you ever experienced culture shock? No.

2380. In one half hour from when I type this, it will be the anniversary of 9/11. Imagine you were trapped in one of those burning buildings or on a hijacked airplane. Maybe you are lucky enough to have a cell phone with you. Who would you call and what would you say to them in those last few minutes? If I had a last few minutes, I'd try to make sure my survival instinct was still extant. But if not, I'd call my family to tell them that I loved them and to tell my friends the same thing...

The people in that building were not aware that terror would strike on such an average seeming day. Anything can happen. Maybe you should tell people how you really feel now.. just in case.... Okay...

2381. Do you ever go to school or work when you feel like you do not look your best? Yeah, all the time.

Does doing this affect your whole day? Not really.

2382. What makes someone a patriot? If they're really gung-ho about their country.

Do patriots agree with everything their government says? Possibly.

2383. What's the most interesting object in the room with you? The postcards that I got from Charlotte recently. :D

2384. Do you believe that everyone who doesn't believe in your religion is going to hell? No, that's wrong.

2385. What is the best thing about winter? Being able to have an excuse to stay indoors.

2386. Would you ever shovel your neighbor's walk to be nice? Yes.

2387. If you don't say what you are thinking, isn't that a form of lying because you aren't showing your true self? No.

2388. Have you ever looked back at someone you loved and wondered, "What attracted me to THEM?" HAHA, oh yes!

2389. What do you think of Drew Barrymore? Eh, she's certainly gone downhill.

2390. Is there anything you don't do? Smoke, do drugs, have sex, eat pork uteri, tell people how I really feel, etc.

2391. Do you think people see you who you are, or what you are? Who I am... at least, I hope!

2392. Is this survey getting outrageous? Yup.

Truly, truly, truly outrageous? Yes.

2393. Pick 3 random letters: C, D, and Z.

Now think of the first 3 things that pops into your head that starts with each letter. Chinchilla, dovecote, and zirconia.

2394. Do you dress more revealing, or more covered-up? Covered-up.

a) If you dress more revealing, why do you choose to dress like that?

b) If you dress more covered-up, what do you think of people that are more revealing? I think they are sluts / pimps / skanks.

2395. What does it take to be a "real gentleman"? Opening the door for you, visiting you when you're sick, hold onto you when you walk, hold onto you in general, be protective and caring, communicate often, so much more

2396. Where would you go if you were going somewhere you don't usually go? Sean's place!

Who would you talk to if you were going to talk to someone you don't usually talk to? Danny.

What would you read if you were going to read a book that you wouldn't usually read? Probably some book about graphic sexual acts. :P

Why don't you try doing SOMETHING unusual for you, just to see what comes of it? Eh, nah. That would probably result in disaster. :P

2397. On the one-year Sept. 11th anniversary, the New York lottery's winning numbers were 9, 1 and 1. Do you believe this is fate, coincidence, or a conspiracy / plan? Fate.

2398. Did you know there is a lie in the middle of the word believe? Yes.

2399. When (and if) people (or animals) go to heaven... are they issued a harp and a halo? In other words, do they become angels? Yes.

2400. What is your most important body part? Eyes.

Dinner at Dave's / Winnie's email about Megan

Had Christmas dinner at Dave's.. it was all right, although I could have done without being away from home all day. Guess I'll have to get certain Guinness / Ripley's books for myself, since I didn't get them this year... but that's all right, my trust can be eroded further. :P

Oh yay... Melissa comes tomorrow! Guess I'd better pray hard that Jon feels well... ;)

Winnie emailed a bunch of us with news on her baby daughter Megan, and of their move. She attached cute photos of baby and parents..

MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and your family from our family!

Like many other new parents (or not) this year, we somehow ran out of time (and lacked the organization to write our Christmas cards and many thank-you cards!) and therefore, we are sending you our greetings by email instead. As many of you know, we have experienced a few big changes the past year.

First of all – we want to thank you all for your emails, cards, and gifts for the birth of our daughter, Megan Hannah, back in May, 2005. Many of you received the email announcement of her birth 05/05/05. She is doing well. We cannot believe how quickly she is growing. She is now 7.5 months old. She has outgrown many of her clothes. She has two bottom teeth now; she is eating solids; she is sitting on her own, standing with support, and trying to crawl but still doing face-plants. She is a lot of fun! We did have a rough first 3 months with her and with the advice and encouragement from many of you during that time, she is now healthy and thriving.

Secondly, for those of you who don't know – we have moved. Yes, we have left our condo in Vancouver (where we lived for over 4 years) and then decided (Winnie did) it was too cramped and noisy for our little girl. In October, after some renovations, we moved. Kenny's parents are living with us, and of course, the built-in babysitting is just wonderful.

Please email / write / call us and if you're in Vancouver – come visit anytime. We'd love to hear from you or see you!

We wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Love from

Kenny, Winnie, and Megan J


PS – We've attached some (very) recent photos of Megan (plus or minus parents).

The photos in question can be found here.

Santa Megan:

Is Christmas over yet?

Today went all right as far as things with my mom were concerned: Corey did tell me to try to survive her before he went to bed, so that was nice. :) I got up with just enough time to throw on some clothes, start a 240MB Arrogant Worms download (which will hopefully be done when I get home tonight), and brush my teeth / wash my face... that was pretty good for not setting an alarm, even! Maybe God wanted me at church, heh.

I had to wear the stupid object that she was going on about (I planned to wear it to surprise her, but she went on so much about it last night that I wasn't going to)... appeasing Asian mothers isn't easy. *sigh* A bunch of people noticed it, which is what I was afraid of... even little Nathan did, and said I looked weird... thanks, kid. My mother wanted me to have comments from people about it, but I didn't! (it's too embarrassing for me, but she doesn't understand... revenge / payback for the past?)

The baby dedication was cute, though: I like babies, but won't have one of my own till a LONG time from now! I gave Chung, Joe, and Rosanna birthday cards (and wished Julianna a happy birthday)... yup, their birthday is on Christmas Day! Then I gave Silvester and Hien birthday cards, too... theirs aren't till NYE and the day before, but whatever works! Joe / Helen / Nathaniel, Denise / Brian / Julie, and some others got Christmas cards too... Julie gave me some baked goods and a card from her and her siblings. (they do this every year, heh) Then at Sunday School, I got half a Chinese cake / a musical little teddy bear / some candy / a snowman plush. At home, my mom was regifting stuff like it was going out of style: oh well, I might do that too! She gave me pink gloves (NOT my color, which she thinks I like! :P), some "Porcelain Ornament of the Month" angel thing, a huge Toblerone bar, some special shampoo (yay...), and a notebook with a cat on it. (that last has great regifting potential, haha... only because I have enough of those things :P) She also gave me some cookies and cereal for Melissa, whom she characterizes as weird because "Melissa doesn't drink coffee, and she doesn't like eating that much... she'll have cereal for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!" If that's weird, I can show her even more weird stuff... but probably won't, heh. I like my sanity intact, thanks so much. :P

After church, we went for lunch with Sam's family and others in this HOT crowded dim sum place! We were squished like sardines at a large table... thank goodness we can appreciate our heritage, or else we'd be horrified! I have an excuse to not go on some mini-vacation with the parents and Jon after New Year's, since Awana is starting again after a two-week break. (normally, we'd get three) My mom thought I was lying to get out of it, but then I wouldn't do that. Sam had no idea when we started again, but it's all right... I need my downtime, after all. ;) We had a LOT of food at lunch: crab, fish, veggies, noodles, shrimp, BBQ pork buns, and more. Thank goodness my mom's attention was focused elsewhere. :D

After a while, we're going to Dave's place for dinner: apparently, his mom has made turkey / hot and sour soup / who knows what else. Dave did confirm to me today that his mom was cooking up a storm... I'm not surprised! More... food.... can't.... take... it.... Then Melissa and Terrence arrive tomorrow, Jon's friends arrive the day after, and Kate arrives next week... it'll be interesting around here, to say the least!

Oh, and Steph said that Mom was out of it when they got home last night from bubble tea at Dragon Ball. Apparently, they woke her up when talking upstairs... she came out of her room and asked them whether they were leaving yet to go to church for breakfast! Steph's answer: "No, Mom... it's 1 AM!" Then they woke her up again this morning at 7:30 because Steph answered a phone call for Jon... aiyoh. She's losing it in more ways than one, haha.

Merry Christmas! / Candy's Christmas gift / Questions 2301-2350 of 5000

Had dinner tonight at Pastor Fulton's house... it was okay, as Jon / Steph / Sarah / Vernon and I discussed a bunch of topics. But I'm glad to be home finally. :) I'd talk to Corey more, but he's already gone to sleep... I should head that way, too. He says he'll tell me about any neat toys tomorrow... I hope I have the time to talk to him then!

Merry Christmas, I guess... I don't feel like doing much, but I have to. Darn being social. :P

Oh, and since it's now officially Christmas, I can open the present that my online friend Candy and her husband George sent me. (I did this last year with the perfidious blackguard Yazmine's shortbread / memo pad, and Rosanna's Almond Roca) Like I said earlier, it feels like a book... I hope it's not a DVD, as I don't have a DVD player! *unwraps gift* Hey, it's the Canadian Hockey Collection! Sweet! (Canadian Hockey Record Breakers, Weird Facts About Canadian Hockey, and Greatest Moments in Canadian Hockey all in one collection! Whee!) This is the best present this year! :D

2338. If you had to be surgically attached at the hip for two years to either Britney Spears, George W. Bush, or an ugly creepy nasty troublesome nice troll... who would you pick and why? The troll, because you happened to have put the word "nice" in his / her description... therefore it would definately be better than George Bush and Britney Spears because those two would be dodgy. :P

2339. Let's assume that there is a "meaning of life": a reason for humans to be here on this planet. Would you give up both of your legs and one of your arms if it would mean everyone would learn the meaning of life? No, probably not.

(Note: If you meet God, you will never find out if there is intelligent life on other planets, so you can't ask God if aliens exist. Also, you would get no proof that you had talked to him or HER. And finally, if God doesn't exist... then you don't get to meet him or HER!) Whoa... tough question. I'd probably choose to meet God.

2341. Would you rather have sex for five hours, or two minutes? If you're a virgin, would you rather have a lollipop or cotton candy? Cotton candy.

2342. Before you read this question, pick a person from your life, any person. (You have to be thinking about someone before you continue!) Would you rather have the ability to watch that person for one hour per day, or would you rather have that person watch you for one hour per day? Who is it, and why? (you pick the hour - they don't know that they are being watched - it's like there are invisible TV cameras following them around)? Probably I'd rather have the ability to watch Corey for an hour per day, because I just know I'm a klutz in real life!

2343. Would you rather be guaranteed to have your dream job, or never be heartbroken? Dream job... sometimes you can learn from heartbreak.

2344. Have you thought about death today? Yes.

2345. What is a continental breakfast? Muffins, waffles, food from all different places in the world.

2346. God help you if you are an ugly one...

Of course, too pretty is also your demise, because everyone harbors a secret hatred for the prettiest girl in the room. Which would you rather be? Pretty.

2347. What's Growing in Your Rectum? .... I don't want to know!

2348. Have you ever hit a stop sign or made some other dumb traffic move? No.

2349. Are you the life of the party? No.

Do you wish you were? No.

2350. Sdrawkcab daer uoy nac? Yes.
