October 1st was my birthday. Unfortunately I barely had any internet connection so I couldn't update my journal or my gallery and etc. I was planning on posting something today but my brother is asleep in his room 6pm in the fricking afternoon. anyhow I thought since its my 16th birthday I would give 16 facts about myself... which is sorta lame now that I think of it.

1.In first grade I was put in speech because I couldn't pronouce the "T" and "L" sounds. I remember my speech teacher picking me up during my free time. there's a reason why I couldn't prounounce those two sounds correctly I didn't have my upper front teeth. it was taken out for some unknown reason. I remember that I was bleeding like crazy. and because of that I have crooket teeth now. >_< nobody ever noticed because I never showed my teeth even while smiling. Of course I wouldn't.

2.I'm just as unsocial online as I am offline.>_> I'm really just weird that way.

3.when I was a kid until I was in 6th grade I had a bowl cut. It was fricking terrible... I'm pretty sure thats why I didn't have alot of friends. In first grade when we were doing a head count of both the boys and girls and we had more girls a boy said, "hey doesn't Bao count?"

as terrible as it was, I remember I got a whole bag full of candy and then some during Halloween.I'm not sure if it was because my dad knew all the best places for candy or the fact that I wasn't wearing a costume. but I barely remember even eating any of that candy, I think my brothers ate most of it.

4.My nick-name as a kid was bow-wow. that name ruined my life. everyone just yelled me that name just so I would chase them but when they got tired I didn't have any idea what to do to them. I remember I ran home crying one time. when I told my mom she didn't help. there was even a song that gone with it. "Bow-wow-wow-wow, yippee yo, yippee ye, where my dogs out?" what a ghetto song now that I think about it. nowadays nothing bothers as it use to. one of the boys that used to tease me is in my high school his name is Andy. I remember him going to Iraq in 2nd grade. his friend D.R. was kinda sad. he hated me for some reason.

5.I'm a big crybaby. I mean like huge. if you make me frustrated i'll break out crying a bit. I blame my brother. I remember him teasing me alot and hitting me and making me cry. of course who wouldn't cry after all the teasing in and out of school? Bleh.

6.I've never been back to Vietnam or a plane. I've asked my family members that i really want to go since forever but I've decided that I'll never go back to veitnam, I'll go to England and Japan but I'll never visit veitnam. I will never ever go there out of spite to all my family members. So, HA!...

It only works if they care if I go or not.

7.I get car-sick, ugh I hate going on cars. If I'm on a car for more than 45 minutes I get dizzy and I must go to sleep to stop myself from puking. horrible, horrible memories.

8.For my first job I want to work at safeway. it seems like a fun job and I wouldn't mind telling people that I work there. and plus it seems kinda fun. either that or an apprentice to a tailor.

9.I walk everywhere when I want to buy something, because I'm too much of an idiot and a bit of a coward to use public transportation. the last time I used the bus I had to walk a really long time home like 3 hours home. i would of been lost if I wasn't looking out for the land marks. I make my family members drive me somewhere once and just so I can walk there.

10.I'm a pessimistic. The motto I live by is "always think the worst of everything that might happen, so if it does happen you won't be dissapointed" I think that started with expecting my mom saying no to everything. but it works fairly well.

11.I don't know how to hold my chopsticks properly.even tho I'm aware of it I'm not doing anything big to change it. I think about 70% of Asians in America can't actually. to know if someone is holding there chopsticks properly is if the sticks form a triangle not an "X".

12.I'm not good with kids. anyone at least 5 years younger than me I'm terrible with. I turn immature around them.

13.i learned English by watching Weta kids when I was little. I know more English than I do Vietnamese.

14.I love sour candy and those bubblegun that are shaped like fat small cylinders, are pink, and wrapped up.

15.If I put something off for more than 2 weeks I'll either never do it or do it at the last second if its school related.

16.uummmm..... uhhh... I... like... oh! I really like punk clothing and collar shirts and ties. I can't wear punk clothing because my mom dosen't let me buy any, but every once in awhile I do wear a white button down shirt and a tie.

whew... that's the last time I'm doing anything like this. Its gonna be a pain reading this and editing.I wonder if anyone's even going to read through all this. Its really quite boring.
