Highlights of my Day... Friday, May 25

1. Well, I didn't wake up with the black of blackest hearts, instead I woke up to a text message from Pretty Boy. It was nothing special, kind of rude actually. That's all I got from him all day though. Hmm.... I figured that because love is this so-called "Cat and Mouse" game that I'd try to push him into being the cat. And so I stuck to my promise that I had made to Hannah and didn't text or call him all day... that was hard but I figure he'd give in. He didn't.

2. And if waking up and being disappointed with still having a heart and it being crushed so early in the morning, Mi Nam had the worst gas today!!! I'm SERIOUSLY thinking about checking this little boy into the doggie hospital for fear of my hair either being totally curled or the wallpaper peeling off the wall cause of his gas!!!

3. Had quite the interesting conversation with my Elite Class today in regards to my boxing incident last Monday. I told them all about my Nazi boxing trainer and his super crazy, majorly intense, hardcore training and abuse he puts me through. All 3 students claimed that they are convinced this means he must like me! Oh my gosh... are we back in grade three where they boys would pull your hair if they liked you?! This must me he's totally, head over heels, madly in love with me.... hehehe.

4. So funny... one of my students is named Bobby and well, today they changed his name to that of my brothers, Bobby-B. It's rather ironic considering they're opposites in every sense of the word but the name rolls of the tongue quite nicely and so it's funny to say.... ok, so this story wasn't as funny telling it as I thought. I guess you really had to be there.... hmmm... pass!

5. Got my first office call from a student. I was quite excited too. It was a student from my Friday night class. He wasn't able to come to last class and he wouldn't be coming to tonight's class. Trying to explain this and me trying to understand this was quite the difficult task. I gave up trying to speak in English and thus resorted to pure Konglish.... hehehe. It's funny how these students sound like 12 year olds on the phone... so cute!

6. My evening class was quite relaxed tonight and full of laughs. They're always quite nervous at volunteering to come up to the front and so tonight I offered them an awesome bribe... the chance to change their last quiz mark to a perfect mark if they volunteered to write their answer on the board. I had written a set of directions on the board and told them to come pick out the errors in them. Congrats to Young Hoon who scored the bribe!!!

7. Hit the gym and ended up kicking my own butt on the treadmill. While the other girls on the treadmills gracefully jogged, I busted my butt and sprinted... leaving me drenched in sweat. I was so past the stage of glowing; I was soaked and I loved it!

8. Finally figured out what song to do a music video to. I figured I'd either do a song by Madonna, Pink or Gwen Stefani. My love for Madonna is obvious... she's the Queen of pop with a totally-toned body. She's pushed the limits and has put in motion various trends. But as for Pink and Gwen Stefani, I love Pink's independent and tough girl attitude. She's small but full of spunk and doesn't try to be all girlie. I love Gwen's uniqueness and style... and her wicked blonde hair!!!

9. How ironic is this, tonight I got relationship advice from a guy I use to date... Mr. Money Bags. Tonight I talked to him on msn. Every time I chat with him he always jokes around and says that he's waiting for me to come back and marry him. I know he's joking but honestly, it doesn't sound that bad of a deal. Considering the bad luck that I have with love, I figure that if I wait around for my Prince, I'm bound to only end up a single old lady with ten billion cats and knitting as my hobby. Don't get me wrong, you should marry for love but then again, what about arrange marriages?! One of my friends in Canada who's Pakistani had an arranged marriage. She didn't love him at first but she grew to love him and now they've been married for 10 years!

10. So, the thought of marrying Mr. Money Bags isn't such a far-fetched idea... hmmm. My parents really liked him, my brother liked him cause he had a Porshe, my friends loved him cause he had his own company and so they got to go to posh parties,... but then again, I didn't love him. He was ten years older than me and although he was everything I thought I could ever find in a mate, he was all about his work. He just didn't know how to relax and not think about work.

QUESTION OF THE DAY...
Would you ever agree to an arranged marriage?
