"the look"
I have this look. It is the worst look I can make. Its annoying, its irritating, its rude, and its just down right hateable. Ask my family, its been around for 20 years and it still stirs angry emotions left and right.
On Monday, I gave the look to A. Not only did I give him the look, I gave him a long look. I can see on his face while I was giving him The Look, his thought process. It was full...

Canadian Japanese?
Last night, my brother texted me to tell me that my lifelong crush is now single. He’s my brothers friend and he is a combination of BABY FACE and HOT BOD. Can you say ZOMG? BG told me that DTa said that he only wants to date younger girls now… Well, what a coincidence because I’m way younger!! Excitment!!
So… as the typical Monique, DTa was in my dream. I dreamed that he...
Foiled!
I had a little plan in the back of my mind to indirectly see/test whether or not I will dp from SPL.
This weekend is my Mother’s birthday along with 2 of my Aunts. This year, my family will be hosting the event, so as the onyl daughter and an upstanding example of the Nguyen Household, I have to be there. I must act the part of the perfect daughter and perform daughterly duties. I had told...
Puppy Love
1:25 am. H runs in, wakes me up from my deep slumber. “A and I just kissed!!!!”
The complete IRONY of the whole situation because just earlier that day I made H promise to tell me when her first kiss happens. So perfect, so natural, so real. I love how they, in his car on her terms, had a moment of complete, genuine like. Jokes were cracked, honesty voiced. When H came to me...
Red Anger
So much for stepping up. If you can do nothing but complain about the content of my speech, but applaud my composure, presence, introduction, quote, eye contact, and pacing- yet you STILL fail me, and make me re-do my speech?? Not only do I have to write a new speech, it has to have a new topic, new subject, new EVERYTHING. You can shove it up your a-hole BK. You backstabbed your own Vanderbilt!...
Stepping up
Tomorrow night, I shall have to deliver a speaking resume in front of all the active class. My posture, context, answer, and presence will be taken into account. I have less than 24 hours to prepare. Goodness gracious, I need all the luck I can get.

Busy Bee
Happy happy happy. I’m pretty content with happiness right now, with my life unfolding, with how things are falling into place. I always ran away from the idea of being so busy. Of having no leisure time. But I have found that I benefit from it. I am learning and embracing time management. (But I’m also bummed by how much time I’m missing out on fun at The Palace and people I...
I think
I was hazed this morning! Haha, it’s fine though because I walked away with a care package and a Big Bro today.
Side note: some efftard is blasting his stupid rock music and it’s giving me a headache.
I have been so busy lately. It really is mindblowing. I miss all my friends, but loving all the new people I’m getting to know. Today was a pretty fabulous day! There a scavenger...
How I think so-and-so thinks....
Hypothetically there are people in your life. You’re friends with them, but sometimes, you just don’t want them to be part of your life anymore. Is it because I’m bored? Is it because I found something new to take up all my time? They try to hit me up, but I never respond to them out of sheer annoyance at thier persistence. I don’t want to be around thier particular aura;...

H, K, and I. So cozy with white lights. Talking about everything on my side of the room. I miss this! I love this!
2 Birds with 1 Stone
No joke. A unicorn and a man all combined in one. Can you say BEST DREAM EVERR?
(obviously a joke, you sick nastys)
Either fate or dysfunction always brings me back...
yourbelief:
and I swear I didn’t mean to. I mean, I know I didn’t mean to.
Fate or dysfunction or curiosity at that
Fingers finding, date defining, cords connect to you.
Wireless and ethernet and the ether of the past
Fate or dysfunction, or curiosity at that.
Truth. Is technology our greatest accomplishment, or greatest destructive device?
interviews
are actually quite fun! Heehee. Its like a date, but brotherhood <3
My mood to the T
I’m sad. Look at me. Play with me. Spend time with me.
But I want to be left alone and wallow. But I still want you there. Can’t you tell? I’m peeking.
Why do I feel so overwhelmed? Pet me. Thats all I need. Teehee, so cute <3
I wish
to be as successful as this bird. Flawlessly.
Details in the fabric.
mookao:
If its a broken part, replace it.
If its a broken arm, then brace it.
If its a broken heart, then face it.
Ooo, reality.
Jumbled
thoughts.
I just realized that I may not be the best listener on the phone. Not unless I am in the mindset, and had put aside a time a time slot dedicated to talk.
Haha, just talked to Jennk. 420 is tomorrow! I keep on forgetting. Its not something that I remember because I remember that in high school, we would always have a swim meet on 420 so none of the girls were ever able to smoke. I have...

Thursday Nights
are the only nights free for the rest of my life. Oh my god. This is ridiculous. I am not keen on this. I am so lazy. This is not good. Study hours on Sunday, meeting on Mondays, another meeting on Tuesday, and study hours again on Weds and more stuff every Saturday and Sunday. Ohhhhh my goodness. This is going to be death. I can’t do this. I can’t afford all this.
protocol
My clothes must be black, my skirt no shorter than my knees. I have deadlines to meet. I have to write a cover letter, a resume, and wear basic black heels.
I have to have dinner at 7pm, I must send emails. I must set up appointments, I must wear my pin and have my binder.
I can’t wait to get my Blackberry.
boarderline
Why are you always lingering in the back of mind?
Why is it that my thoughts can never let you go?
5 months of constant companionship,
5 months of sweet texts and late night talks.
Was it all for nothing? I don’t think so.
Was it worth it? I would think so.
I just counted in my head, and in all honesty I forgot our ending month!
I my chest isn’t heavy, but my mind goes haywire.

... I can't sleep =.=
Breaking a Sweat
A combination of last night and this morning has been so stressful for me. I stayed out late last night knowing that I would have an 8AM the very next morning. I was running only on 4 hours of sleep practically falling asleep in Econ 20B.
Anyhow, after coming back from my 8AM class, I came back and had a little catch up session with H. It felt as though it has been forever since we’ve been...

Oh bum.
Turns out H & C planned a suprise dinner for me tonight, and I went out for dinner with my family instead. I had planned dinner on Tuesday, but to be honest, I would have rather a suprise dinner! I’ve never been sucessfully suprised before! Haha, oh well. My parents and brother did have to turn down a couple of clients to make time to come down to Irvine and celebrate with me <3
Double Whammy
Two birds with one stone. Cute baby and cute puppies. Can this picture be anymore perfect?
6:30 am, Saturday
Yes. I did wake up at 6:30 am on a Saturday morning. This is not any normal Saturday either. This is the Saturday before my birthday. The day of my very first party.
I’m sitting here and full of comphrehension. I almost logged onto Facebook and cancelled my event. I am so nervous. What if nobody comes? What if we run out of alcohol? What if nobody has fun? What if I get in trouble? And...
Philosophy Class
Wake up in the morning feeling like P. Diddy
Take a ride on that shuttle bus, feeling like a lil kiddy
Cruising on over, walking through the park
It’s on this intellectual journey, that I’m about to embark.
The name of the building is along the lines of Parkview
And as I take a seat there at 8:02

Haha, I swear I know how to park. LOL.
I had a really good day today. I started tweeting again, and I like it alot. All I have to do next is figure out how to login via computer. I ran into P and had a very nice lunch. My newest obsession is the Taco Salad from the Pheonix Grill. Nomnom.
I had classes back to back, and was a rebel and skipped my 6 o’clock class. Heehee. It was worth...

Ping Pong Sunday
I had a fabulous and MOST eventful day ever. I woke up pretty early, having unexpectedly sleeping at home, and had a slow and music filled day with BG. That’s when a series of unforunate events happened because of Easter. My mother had called and asked BG and I to pick up two boxes of paper for the office. Staples was closed. So was Best Buy.
On my to-do list of the day was to buy a swim...
