ramblings, opinions, rants, and life happenings of a college student of asian roots. hopefully i made you chuckle along the way. first my nickname was wonton and no one knew my real name. now it has graduated to eggroll, but as many would pronounce it without the l's, hence eggrorr as my mother would say it. its okay i'm not offended. really.

KWASTMAS CHEER FOR ALL!!
So why did Santa get a ticket on Christmas Eve?
He left his sled in the SNOW Parking Zone. get it???
bahahhaaa....i crack myself up.
so when my mummy left this year, she also took with her our christmas spirit with it. which is really sad, because now santa won't be able to power his sled...we don't even have a kwastmas tree this year and i can't find those HEINOUS sweaters with actual jinlgy bells. given our retarded one from last year that my mom decorated where she only bedazzled the front side of the tree leaving the rest naked as shit, it looks like a half-naked uber gay man. i need to find those pictures i took from yesteryear. I've attempted some very pathetic decorating and blasting christmas music all day every day. I think my dad's a little confused by such constant music...okay, i'm off to sip some hot cocoa and listen to some mariah carey holiday songs (lord knows how much i love them). because as buddy the elf once said:
i plan on doing just so!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
there's too much crap in the world, so lets try our best to be merry and jolly when we can!
gawd...this post is cheesy. don't judge me.
love always,

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow
i'm sorry i didn't get to say a proper goodbye but know that...
I thought of you with love today
but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday
and days before that too,
I think of you in silence
I often speak your name
All I have are memories
and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake
with which I’ll never part
God has you in His keeping
I have you in my heart.
i will love and miss you forever,

now listen what i say oh
currently listening to: snow by red hot chili peppers
current mood: STOKED for the holidays!
youtube kinda sucks these days. stupid commercials and lame new format. really crampin' my blog's style...
so last night i had this dream that i was in this really big room on a ghetto bed in the corner and this male asian, i think it was either my dad or my uncle came in, that's when i saw this gray cat lying on the floor. i flipped a shit and begged for the asian person to chase it out/get rid of it. thats when i saw another large striped cat scurry across the room into another corner and then magically fit under the crack of the door. then i lost it. i begged and cry to go back to my room and the asian person disappeared and i was left all alone. poopin myself with fright (well not really). so i wrapped my presh body into the sheet, SPRINTED outta there into my room and jumped on the bed. throwing things around to rid it of cats. then i woke up and was really hungry. i think i need to get this phobia checked out. it's not healthy.
yesterday i watched gone baby gone. it's ben affleck's directorial debut and set in bahsten. fairly good and it left me questioning life choices, but i wont get all deep and mushy for everyone's sake. but it definitely made me miss home, oh dorchester, MA such a beautiful place...and the accents are divine as well...also apparently they filmed some parts of the social network at phillips academy, 5 minutes from my beautiful asian home. UGHHH.
WHY DO I ALWAYS HAVE 2 EXAMS ON A MONDAY??
ruining my football, 60 minutes, and desperate housewives sunday.
have a magical saturday,
Eggrorr
oh yeah, 13 DAYS UNTIL DEATHLY HALLOWS!

(please disregard that its from men's health)
well now this interesting:
well what do ya know, LOOK WHAT'S NUMBER 1. so all those hating on the more natural substances, take a good look before you make judgment.
Look what else grabbed my attention:
Invisibility cloak closer with flexible 'metamaterial'
By Jason Palmer Science and technology reporter, BBC NewsScientists in the UK have demonstrated a flexible film that represents a big step toward the "invisibility cloak" made famous by Harry Potter.
The film contains tiny structures that together form a "metamaterial", which can, among other tricks, manipulate light to render objects invisible.
Flexible metamaterials have been made before, but only work for light of a colour far beyond that which we see.
Physicists have hailed the approach a "huge step forward".
The bendy approach for visible light is reported in the New Journal of Physics.
how all very exciting! did i mention ONLY 15 MORE DAYS TILL DEATHLY HALLOWS!!
oh and i'm buying this present for my lovely brother dick cause he always dutch ovens himself and when dadsicles and i go to wake him up by lifting his covers, IT IS DEATH. i don't know what he eats...oh slim jims. my mum could probably use it too, just sayin'.
ok i am now going to attempt to be a good student.

missin the good ol'baystate
i've gotta about a month till i get to go back, in the meantime, here's a list of all the things that i love and miss about bahsten and its surrounding areas.
-fenway park and the garden (sox hats and gear everywhere and everyday). gillette's too far
-the obnoxious sport fans that no other place can rival. seriously, its in our blood.
-upper crust pizza, papa gino's, spinners, & bertuccis.
-actual DERICIOUS clam chowder in a nice in a bread bowl.
-the boston accents and saying the world wicked w/o being mocked.
-boston common and the movie theater across from it.
-beautiful and chill hippie maine and vermont.
-the really RUDE drivers that have no manners...
-rockingham mall w/the annoying teenyboppers, salem nh.
-cake batter ice cream from emack and bolio's.
-getting mail from my p.o.box in cambridge, yes i have one.
-no sales tax in new hampshire, my fathers love for this and his refusal to buy even a bottle of shampoo in a costco/bj's in mass.
-wrentham outlets
-the nerds at havahd & MIT, the hipsters by berkeley, the prepsters at BC, and the azns at BU.
-market basket
-the shitty T and its efforts to "modernize".
-the incredible amount of trees and ACTUAL mountains.
-Anna's taqueria, no other mexican place matches.
-newbury comics and yes the uber touristy faneuil hall.
-how friggen cheap lobstah is compared to other places, and i like it steamed dipped in butta or the asian style with scallions. plus cornbread & baked beans on the side.
-going to lawrence for whatever reason, always a charming place...
-chinatown and its lovely smell/people.
-legitimate amounts of snow but not shoveling it.
-newbury street, copley, and the pru.
-having a car albeit its shitty conditions.
-obnoxiously loud family and friends, massholes to the core.
-rotary NOT circle, highway NOT freeway, breakdown lane, and the fast lane.
-charles river for earthfest, july 4th, or new years.
-our backyard pool/pond and the ghetto cars
-frances rivera and the whole 7 news team (the anchors elsewhere suck).
-bob's discount furniture, the 1-800-cars-for-kids, ernie bott, (woops i mean BOCH ;) jr. commercials.
-how accessible everything is (beach, city, stores, nature).
it's funny how when you leave, even the most ridiculous things are missed...i'm sure there's more and i'll add onto the list but for now these off the top of my head makes being from NE that much cooler.
ughhh it smells like my roomate's feet in here. that's what happens when you don't wear socks with sneakers. i'm going to go vomit now because of this stench.
oh one more thing, my blog look is mega fugly and i apologize for its 'stuck in the '90s look' but due to my severe retardation with technology, i have no idea how to change it. so if anyone would like to help, it would be much appreciated.
have a great last week of october, oh and do try to keep it classy on halloween.
2010's almost ending, how very strange.
Love Always,

one day your life will flash before your eyes
“You can shed tears that he is gone,
or you can smile because he has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that he'll come back,
or you can open your eyes and see all he's left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see him,
or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember him only that he is gone,
or you can cherish his memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind,
be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what he'd want:
smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”
-David Harkinsso gramps:
I love you and I miss you.
I will always hear your voice in my head
and remember your ernie bott face and mica feet.
I will try my best to live a life that you would be proud of.
May you watch over our entire family, bring us together
and may you forever rest in peace.
always,

seems like everyone's for themselves these days...
it has been far too long and much has happened in my otherwise dull life.
pretty epic summer, saw a lot of people, ate a lot food, went to alotta places, and most importantly, gained a whole new perspective (oh and about an additional 6 lbs, sorry family.) i will update soon with pictures, hopefully...
its the beginning to another school year and its not starting off the way i would like it to. i wish i had my family and friends with me, because they are without a doubt the most important part of my life. And by friends i mean the ones who've stuck by you, take you for who you are no matter what, make you laugh at yourself, and the ones who after being apart for long, it feels as if nothing's changed.
so shout out to everyone who truly matter:
mumsicles & dadsicles
despite my anger towards how gosh darn annoying you two are, i will always miss your "ways" wherever i go and your words of wisdom are always in my head. you might not think it, but i'm listening.
presh little brother, Dicky
you make me so mad sometimes with your obnoxious teenage puberty self, but i'm glad to see how close we are. you are the most special person i've ever met. thanks for the laughs.
guido cousins
jess, jenn, bev, bren for the relationship we have compared to peanuts...and for always being there to play taboo with.
my potato pals (the ones that i actually stayed friends w/after high school and made the effort to make our friendship last)
most importantly- Burkey Turkey, Buhbies, & the Apester, ya'll are RIDICULOUS.
double c's, dewek, brown suga, sometimes the italian stallion and miss. 2.0 avril.
kwastal/moesha/sista from anotha motha
you made my life in maryland bearable. thank you for EVERYTHING
cousins back in the homeland for being AMAZING FOBS, i mean that.
all my aunts and uncles who take such good care of us every time we go back to HK. truly gives me that warm and family feel. some of my happiest moments are with you all.
grandparents-for teaching my parents the morals and values that hopefully will be passed onto me to become a better person.
the aunts & uncles that have no family relation but nevertheless, treat me as if i were their own-
Susie Yee Yee & Uncle Richard, Gracie Yee Yee & Uncle Frankie, Ruby Yee Yee & Family (Jane), godfather David & Auntie Holly (plus Carmen).
i don't know where this post comes from but i think after some reflection on my life, i needed to lay out those who are apart of MY family (blood relation or not). everyone who i owe so much of my happiness to and gave me the feeling that i'm never alone wherever i go. i've realized that money seems to tear so many people apart or their selfish and cheap ways drive people away. the people listed have never been "cheap" or have been stingy with the relationship, whether they have it or not, have been more then willing to put others before themselves. thanks guys for being such great people for me to compare which relationships are real and which are simply not meant to last. people will come and go in my life, but hopefully i can hold onto you all.
WICKED CHEESY but it must be said...
until next time
Peace & Love Always,

i am slowly withering away...
i'm back in the HK. this summer has been way too busy and stressful. i have not stopped since i've come home from school. we just came back from zhuhai/macau and i think i sweated 56% of my body's liquid content away. not to mention i mght now have epilepsy due to my mother's constant camera flash. cause with mumsicles, its no matter if the sun's out and beaming all its powerful rays or all the lights have been turned on, even on auto mode if the picture is taken without flash then it doesnt count, oui these si lai's...in macau i finally got to go into the casinos, pretty rad. too bad it was with a bunch of old geezers and i didn;t know how to play anything. i did walk away with $100 more dollars than i went in with, but i should have made all the bets cause yours truly was 5 for 5, i think i have espN or something. last night my hairy, uber sweaty, insanely phlegmy fob cousin kept us all up due to his freakishly loud snoring. not normal for someone his age, we're sure he has some sort of medical condition. not to mention my lil bro dicky has an extremely weak stomach here and has to poop 4 times a day and death inducing farts. the other day he was pooping and i was chillin in the living room and THIS AWFUL STENCH filled my beautiful nostrils. the servant told us not to breath in but then even she couldn't handle it and had to open up all the windows. i could smell his shitpile in the next bathroom over. IT PERMEATED THROUGH THE WALLS. i wanted to die, kids got issues. and i can't catch up on any of my tv shows. the one english show they have is MONK which is blah. so now i have no choice but to get hooked on these stupid azn soap operas, which i swore i wouldn't...oh another story we were eating and the miss. hong kong pageant was on, #13 won and DICK TWEETED taylor swift about it becuase thats her lucky number. i could go on and on with stories about how special he is. i have to face him day in and day out and i fear for my brain cells by the time i get back to school. okay those are my travel stories for the day, i'm waiting to be retrieved right now but i think my mother forgot to come get us. she forgot her birthday the other day and how old her son is.
hope you're having a good summer bon qui qui ;) ;)
rove always,

SUP PEEPS.
Green Tip: For wrapping and boxing, use recycled paper. Go for boxes made from recycled cardboard. Most post offices and stationers provide these products.

IT'S 4.20!
It’s high time to end marijuana prohibition
By any objective standard, marijuana prohibition is an abject failure.
Nationwide, U.S. law enforcement have arrested over 20 million American citizens for marijuana offenses since 1965, yet today marijuana is more prevalent than ever before, adolescents have easier access to marijuana than ever before, the drug is more potent than ever before, and there is more violence associated with the illegal marijuana trade than ever before.
Over 100 million Americans nationally have used marijuana despite prohibition, and one in ten – according to current government survey data – use it regularly. The criminal prohibition of marijuana has not dissuaded anyone from using marijuana or reduced its availability; however, the strict enforcement of this policy has adversely impacted the lives and careers of millions of people who simply elected to use a substance to relax that is objectively safer than alcohol. NORML believes that the time has come to amend criminal prohibition and replace it with a system of legalization, taxation, regulation, and education.
Only by enacting state and local legislation on the use, production and distribution of marijuana, can state and local governments effectively impose controls regarding:
• Which citizens can legally produce marijuana;
• Which citizens can legally distribute marijuana;
• Which citizens can legally consume marijuana; and
• Where, and under what circumstances, is such use legally permitted.
By contrast, the prohibition of marijuana provides law enforcement and state regulators with no legitimate market controls.This absence of state and local government controls jeopardizes, rather than promotes, public safety.
For example: Prohibition abdicates the control of marijuana production and distribution to criminal entrepreneurs (e.g., drug cartels, street gangs, drug dealers who push additional illegal substances).
Prohibition provides young people with unfettered access to marijuana (e.g., according to a 2009 Columbia University report, adolescents now have easier access to marijuana than they do alcohol).
Prohibition promotes the use of marijuana in inappropriate and potentially dangerous settings (e.g., in automobiles, in public parks, in public restrooms, etc.).
Prohibition promotes disrespect for the law and reinforces ethnic and generation divides between the public and law enforcement (e.g., according to the FBI Uniform Crime Report, 75 percent of all marijuana arrestees are under age 30; African Americans account for only 12 percent of marijuana users, but make up 23 percent of all possession arrests).
Legalizing and regulating adult marijuana use would raise revenue, promote public safety and limit the access that young people have to marijuana. These are goals that lawmakers and the public ought to support.
It's time to end 70-plus years of marijuana prohibition with a policy of legalization, taxation, regulation and education.
Paul Armentano is the deputy director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), and is the co-author of the book Marijuana Is Safer: So Why Are We Driving People to Drink?
hear hear brotha, now i leave you with this:
enjoy the day and take a minute to 'relax' ; )

...sucks balls right now
Green Tip: Use cold water for washing your hands - there are really no health benefits in using hot water as the temperatures that kill bacteria are also too high for human skin.
