Today I went shopping for a lanyard (apparently that's what they're called) cuz the metal nametag chain I wear at work is giving me a bad rash on the back of my neck. I went to all these shops at the mall asking for "that necklace-keychain thingy", usually pointing to what the salespeople themselves were wearing. The Disney store didn't have any Pooh lanyards (grr) so I had to settle for the next coolest thing. Check it out.

We got a KITTY CAT!!! I'm gonna have to start a KittyCam. =) She (I do believe it's a girl, after prying oh-so-rudely between her legs) apparently wandered into my landlords' restaurant and hung out in the kitchen all night, sleeping under one of the refrigerators. The landlords decided to bring her home. We did a supervised dog-get-acquainted-with-cat thing (we currently have a Chow/Dalmation mix named Ru-Yi). If anything, the dog wants to be friends, but due to her sheer size probably intimidates the little kitty. We'll see how that goes. I will be bathing her on Saturday. Yay! Oh, still must think of name for her ...

I found yet another good deal, and instead of submitting it to other good deals sites, I decided to start up my own. People are always asking me about where to get stuff for cheap/free. Check out my fledgling page and please lemme know when you find a good deal so I can post it up!

What happens when people are bored? They might occasionally type their cousin's name into the Yahoo/Google search engine. Thanks Min for showing me the way to true procrastination! =)
I found this old page I made back in 1999 in collaboration with Pooh and am posting it up since I did put a bit of effort into it (major understatement!). =) It was a surprise birthday present for our friend Peter. To Peter: I'd link your page up on it but I can't find your URL, e-mail it to me if you see this! And thanks for giving me the opportunity to learn how to make moving gifs at your expense =)

Sigh. Didn't make the first cut of the Pro-Voice competition. Ah well. No biggie =) Here's a free mp3 for you (a rarity these days since the demise of Napster, hehe) of the song - have a listen at my very first attempt at being a singer/songwriter/producer. If anything, this boosts my confidence in my ability to do whatever I put my mind to, and actually inspires me to write more. Now if I could only study with the same fervor ... =P Need help figuring out the meaning behind the group name? Ask your friendly neighborhood Chinese person =)

Sup yo. Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there, including my own. Since I finished my midterms yesterday, I went to San Diego today to chill out and check out a table tennis tournament. As soon as I got there, this guy looked at me and goes, "Hey Whitney!" all smiling and waving and the such. I was thoroughly confused, looked behind me to see if there were any females there, looked back, and went up to the guy to confirm that it was me he was waving at. Upon finding out my real identity, he exclaims, "You look EXACTLY like Whitney Ping!" Several others confirmed his viewpoint. Evidently she is a 16-yr-old in San Francisco who has a rating of over 2000 (which is really good, for all those not familiar with the sport ... you can check out http://www.usatt.org for more info and can search for her name and stuff). Well, take a look here and judge for yourself. (git your own poll tool thingy here)

Calvin's got his first homepage started - welcome to the web! Also, here's my thought of the day: I sure hope "you are what you eat" doesn't hold true. Apparently Bimbo is the name of that cute little bear.

There have been numerous posts all over school bulletin boards concerning vandalism and break-ins to students' cars in the parking lot. In true FOB fashion, there are plenty of grammatical and spelling errors. But even a spell check wouldn't have been able to help this blooper: "Please put away all personal belongings so they are not visible to pubic view."
