Okay, my favorite food has to be Japanese-at least for now. In China, we went to a Japanese restaurant. It was so cute! There were conveyor belts around the room, with little plates of sushi, sweet peas, Japanese salad, and more sushi. You could take however many plates you wanted, and the waitress would then add up the number of plates. Oh, and each plates had a different color blue the most expensive and white the least expensive. It was pretty cute. I especially love the buckwheat noodles with egg and vegetables. I love the Japanese vingery rice. YUMMY IN MY TUMMY (as Derek would say). Nonetheless, I had a very UNHEALTHY diet today. 4 cookies with milk for breakfast (they are about 1.5 inches wide and 1 inch tall) with chocolate cake that contained extra chocolate chip cookies. I didn't snack until lunch (except for a pear) where I had that atrocious "bloody" hamburger, topped off with cow-tracks ice cream (my favorite). I think I'm gonna get aids. Yeah-and what if those cows have aids?

I need to stop buying all this unhealthy food (or at least my mom needs to) and start going to dong fang dian!! Buy more tofu, fish, rice products, manto, bok choy, bai cai, and eat healthier! I didn't gain one pound when I went to China, but I ate at least 3x more food! It's because it matters what you eat, not how much. Just like the quote says, quality, not quantity. A very good thing indeed, especially with friends.

I'm going to four year old's birthday party soon. It's very sad. I feel like I have no friends. A four year old? I'm going with my brother, but that's also sad, because I feel like people are going to make fun of him and beat him up. So it's all very *sad* in the end.

Women's gymnastics tonight at 7! All around champion! Congratulations to Paul Hamm who won the title of being "The best male gymnast on the planet!" wow, that would be an awesome title. Whenever you would be doing gymnastics, you could always think "I'm better than him."

I'm writing every day!!! well so far. I have a ton of things to do before I go to NEW York the (no, not the garden state, that's new jersey) whatever state. I'll go on the Empire state building, walk on times square, central park, take a ferry to manhatten/brooklyn/ and the other islands, take a walk on fifth avenue, pretend I'm rich and shop at Sak's, go to Chinatown, go to Niagra Falls and get wet, Statue of Liberty, what else?? I don't know, but I'm sure I'll be pretty occupied.

Can you use your manual on the driver's test? Because I have seen a lot of people like that.

Oh, and I got my new glasses! I look very NERDY-it's amazing.

and I have no idea how or what I'm going to wear for picture day. Somethign that'll make my shoulders look smaller. It's weird because I was looking at the Olympic gymnasts and we sorta have the same body type-big muscular thighs and big shoulders with small boobs. lol if only I could be compared to that caliber. Guess what? I grew!! not in height but in bra size... lol, you didn't need to know that. I went bra shopping yesterday and I got REAL BRAS. hehe, they're very *sexy* lol. They even have lace! Oh and another thing, Jennifer Garner has a good body to look after, so does Britney Spears in my opinion. But not Paris Hilton, NOT the Olsen twins, and not Calista Flockhart adn all those creepy skinny girls. Go for muscle and meat! lol okay, that beef has gotten into me.

Non-american boys are (at least some of them) are hot. It's weird because in China, there were a lot of really PRETTY girls and they were a half a head taller than their boyfriends or whatever. And they were a lot PRETTIER. maybe they're after their money. Hm.. who knows?

Now I want to see the original Dirty dancing. I wonder if it's the same.

My brother is four! He is hungry! I better go feed him!!!

Have fun at the sleepover azn sista party!!! while i'm bored out of my mind at driver's ed.

Not all guys smoke in China, but a lot of them do. My two uncles smoke and my grandma. It's culture. It' sculture to smoke and sit and talk with your friends. The girls don't smoke though... it's weird. I think the girls want to keep their complexions :). It's also weird how old people don't die from smoking. I mean here in the US, you hear these horror stories about getting lung cancer and stuff. But the truth is, most people who have lung cancer have never smoked a cigarette in their life. Smoking is not looked down upon, but it's not favored either. Sometimes the type of cigarette is a sign of class.

I miss china. I"ve only been home twelve hours. I want to be able to walk down the stairs of the apartment and buy a popsicle. I want to be able to eat beef noodles or go window shopping.

They say America's century has passed, and now it's China's. The country is BLOOMING! Most everyone has cell phones and digital cameras and computers just like here in the US. The cell phones are a lot more sophisticated there. you can im on you phone too! i tried it with my cousin's. You right a word in chinese and the cell phone tries to read the work and it gives you choices to which one your word resembles. awesome! and in china, people put lil trinkets in this hole on their phone. i bought a bunch to give to friends and stuff.
