Oh the Nostalgia...

Daniel has no homework, no projects, no school. All this translates into a very bored Daniel Kang. Because he was so bored, he decided to read his past blogs. As he read his blogs, some of them made him chuckle, but others made him question his sanity. However, as he continued to read, he stumbled upon one particular blog titled Last Year! In this blog, Daniel had promised himself to accomplish certain activities, and he did accomplish most of them.

• get straight A's
• go to prom
• go to at least one school event other than prom
• go to the beach with friends
• finish college apps early so I can relax :)
• Eat all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ with a bunch of friends and drive that restaurant out of business
• get more involved with church
• improve lost friendships

Sure, he accomplished about half of his promises, but Daniel was sad because he had had the opportunity to clear this list. As Daniel continued to read his past blogs, he stumbled on yet another blog. This one was titled Which one? In this blog, he stated his rule about promises: whatever promise he makes first, comes first. Then it dawned on him, hadn't he made the promise to accomplish everything on his list before anything else? Had he forgotten the promise he had made to himself amidst all the other promises? And that's when he decided that he would firmly complete his promise to himself but in a very strategic manner.

My Valentine

This year's Valentine's Day was one I will never forget. I don't mean to be lackluster, but this day was not one that I shared with the coolest girl in the world (I hope to do this someday). I shared this day with my friends, who were all single, I might add. This year, I was told a tradition for singles on Valentine's Day: singles eat jjajangmyun. The jjajangmyun tasted especially good this day and our conversations were filled with laughter and joy. Everything went great except for the jjajangmyun sauce I discovered  on my white shirt. Who knew Alex could be so clumsy. Biting his tongue twice, getting sauce in his eye, and spraying sauce over his white shirt and mine provided for great entertainment overall.

We then decided to grab some boba at 5.2 Patio. At 5.2 Patio, I got my first taste of taro boba which tasted much like butterscotch and popcorn. It wasn't bad, but it was too unique for my taste. Apparently, Ben likes this kind of stuff. I'm pretty sure we just talked for almost two hours, and I noticed the owners were becoming quite irritated. Ignoring their glances, we talked about Joyce's odd "Flappjack" laugher, sports, Joanne's slightly perverted mind, and the strange and torturous things we do to our older and younger siblings. And who can forget Alex's famous line, "So ya.... How's life guys?" which provided for multiple moments of awkwardness. By that time, it was almost 9:00, so we decided to head on home despite our desires not to. After our goodbyes, I had to drive four boys home. Now I know how Phil feels like. As I was driving them, I decided to have a little fun by farting and locking the windows, The boys soon broke out into an argument about who farted in which I casually said it wasn't me. After some time, I decided I would be the kind and merciful person that I am and open the windows

This day was one of the best days of my senior year. Why hadn't I thought of something like this sooner? I earnestly hope to experience these kind of days in the future. Singles for life! NOT

Last Dance

Tomorrow is my last soccer game I will ever play in high school and possibly college. It feels so weird though. After tomorrow, I will never step on another soccer field. Sigh.... It's all so depressing. Why do I have to graduate? I really don't want to leave high school.
I'm kind of worried about the team too, mainly because we haven't won a single game this year. I don't want to hear about another year without a win. But at the same time, I have a gut feeling that the team will do much better next year (CIF?). I've done my job. It's now my turn to step down and let those younger than me take the lead.

Senioritis

Although I hate to admit it, senioritis is finally catching up with me. Whenever I go to school, my energy level drops and I appear to be tired/bored. It's becoming harder and harder to stay awake in classes too. I just pray to God that I have the mental willpower to finish the year strong.
