I have lots of post ideas, believe me....

But after writing essays for the whole morning I'm not in the mood to unleash my creative literary genius on you all. So....

On Audrey's blog they're talking about hair. I love hair. I have normal asian hair. That''s kind of depressing.
Everybody else has so many different beautiful shades of brown, blond, auburn, everything.

We just have.....black.
Yay.

Unless you're one of those Korean/Hong Kong preppy chicks with the super-pale skin and multicolored hair and fancy clothes.

Like so.


That reminds me. People think us Asians are all the same. No, we're not. (Are you Japanese? I'm Chinese. Can you speak Japanese? No, I tell you.) And there's a whole lot of Japanese envy around America. Everyone wants to be Japanese, go to Japan, blah. 
What about us Chinese people? 
The fashion capital of the world is in Hong Kong, not Japan. We were writing on paper when everyone else was still wearing leaves.


So there's my post about not much. Got to go write essays.

  1. I'm Filipino! Asians UNITE!!

    I know there's this big Japanese thing going on... *shrugs*

    I understand your hair thing, believe me... mine looks black, but if I bleached it it would be red, oddly enough. But seriously, I worship anyone who has lighter hair than I do :P

  2. I'm totally white. Just scottish (and only by my roots), yaaay. Boo...D; I have this secret that I wish i was japanese. Just so I can pull of the preppy japanese school girl look. xD This is what I get for reading too many mangas.

  4. Hey, guys. It doesn't matter how you look. Amaranthine, I really wasn't trying to make you feel bad! I just wanted some people's opinions!

  5. I'm Irish, so I wouldn't know much about China or Japan. -_-

    To tell you the truth, I love the Chinese people's black hair. I had a friend with /real/ black, curly hair. I thought it was prettier then brown hair.

    I know what you mean about it always being about Japan and not China. In all the movies, they are always Japanese and never Chinese. I wonder why...

  6. Hello! Has anyone seen the new Karate Kid? That little girl was adorable! :P

  7. I'm mostly Italian, with some Irish and Scottish mixed in.

    And that is very odd how no one really mentions China in movies, just Japan. Maybe it's because they think Japan is more "modern". I don't get it....

    I think having black hair is really cool, sometimes I wish my hair was black.


    No Alex, I haven't seen it, but I really want to.

three amazing--and relatively little known--psalms

So I'm reading Psalms in the Bible right now. Well, Psalms is one of the three places I read from. I'm reading the Bible all the way through and read two chapters from three places--the Old Testament, the middle of the Old Testament, and the New Testament--every day. I'm in Deuteronomy and Romans in the other sections, but in the middle I'm still right where I started from-Psalms. Cause Psalms is really really long. I was getting kind of tired of Psalms(which isn't really the right attitude to be reading the Bible in). But I realized there are some really breathtaking passages in Psalms, and I'm glad I read them. These are my three favorites: *Buck Forester on Flikr Psalm 65 This one is about God's spectacular creation. What mighty praise, O God,      belongs to you in Zion. We will fulfill our vows to you, 2       for you answer our prayers.      All of us must come to you. 3  Though we are overwhelmed by our sins,      you forgive them a

Ciel Phantomhive vs. Artemis Fowl

  Don't laugh. XD The similarities between the two characters are so distinct and obvious that comparison is inevitable for anyone who's read/watched both series. I seriously thought when I first noticed Black Butler(more popularly referred to as Kuroshitsuji) that it was literally an anime adaption of Artemis Fowl.  Other people have read Artemis Fowl and thought "CIEL HAS A CLONE??!?" So I thought I'd outline some of the differences and analyze who would win. XD Similarities: Appearance:  This is the first similarity, and one of the most major, because if they didn't look so darn alike I don't think the comparison would have been as striking. The above picture of Artemis is a fanart, because there aren't really any good pictures of Artemis, and the manga style makes it more obvious. They are both from the British Isles and have black hair and blue eyes. Both of them lose/change/switch an eye resulting in two different colors. 

I need book recommendations!

    I heard this movie stunk. C'mon, I'm dying over here! In other, unrelated news, want to hear one of the most overrated book series I've ever read is? Alex Rider. I picked up Stormbreaker after legions of people going "READ ITZ AMARANTHINE TIS AMAZING". It was alright....I guess. I didn't...fall asleep or anything. But it was definitely not mind blowing. For starters, Alex is way underdeveloped as a character. He was a little funny and relate able but not on the same level as I was expecting. And he's a bit cliched in the fact that he's just generally smart and knows everything, without any explanation or emphasis. I guess you could say that he's only a genius when he needs to be, and it doesn't add any other levels to the story. Oh, and did I mention that he's well versed in martial arts too? Yeah. Ender could still kick his butt though. I guess it would be a good read for boys who don't read much. Definitely not YA lev
