September Updates

So... I started school last month, which is a huge reason why I've been neglecting this blog >.<

I started school at a private college (which is a reason why I started in August) and nearly didn't get in, the program I'm in is a 6 month program to be a medical laboratory assistant.

I chose to stop my other schooling because well, it was just taking WAY too long and I just can't stand being at home any more. I seriously think that if I stay here for another 3 years I will commit suicide and honestly this is a great stepping stone into something else if I choose to upgrade later on.

So far the school is great, I've made lots of friends and I found out that I'm the weirdo of the class LOL. This month though is probably gonna be one of the toughest months for the program, we're learning lots of medical terminology and anatomy and physiology (which we haven't started yet) and basically there's a test every day so my brain is fried at the moment lol.

So there goes the summer lol.

**********

I had a discussion with Steve about the future and I told him that I will most likely abandon my parents, probably right after I get a job, hopefully after this program.

I feel like our relationship is beyond rebuild/repair, only because they're not willing to admit the mistakes they made and continue to make and them believing that everyone else is the problem besides themselves.

I told him that I do worry about if/or when the time came when we got married or had kids and I honestly don't want them to be a part of it. I'd worry about my mom causing a scene at my wedding and her spreading lies to Steve's family (like she tried to in the past) or call me a slut while I'm walking down the aisle in Vietnamese so she can snicker with her friends, like at Ashley's wedding.

Or if we had kids I would not want either of my parents to be around them. I can't trust my mom around any kids, she has no sense of right or wrong, even when she drives she almost hits people with the car and she blames them for "getting too close." It's just not happening with my kids, I'm not willing to take the risk and Steve understands (or so he says lol) I know his mom is not going to understand, she can't understand that kids can hate their parents.

My parents can't understand that either, both my parents and Steve's mom share the same mentality about it. Basically (I'm sure I've said this somewhere in a previous post) they believe that Money=Love the more you spend the more you love your kids, it doesn't matter if you're abusive or neglectful, in their eyes they think they're great parents, and sadly its something my parents and Steve's mom share.

I don't hate my entire family, just my parents, they're just not supportive or anything. I see how successful our cousins are and its because their parents actually tried to help them be successful in the future.

(had a tough morning lol its why I'm about them)

So that's that, moving on.

**********

I'm hoping to make at least 1 post per weekend, I have tons of stuff to talk about and share but SCHOOL! lol. I have an exam on Monday but I gotta get some motivation to post stuff lol or at least pre-write some posts so I can just update this blog lol.

If you're wondering what's happening with Steve and his crazy family, That needs its own post LOL. Honestly there's a lot of weird shit and a lot of shit to talk about lol.

So again, so sorry about the neglect!

I'm also thinking of renaming this blog, only because I kinda feel like Style Pop is kind of irrelevant to what I'm doing now lol, maybe I'll just move over to a new blog :)

Thanks for the read!

September Updates

I finally got a new phone!!!

Well.. technically not lol, Steve got a new phone off craigslist (Samsung Galaxy S4) and he gave me his old Iphone 4S! I can actually use Instagram again!! I want the new Samsung Galaxy Note 3!! T_T but I'm poor.. super sad lol.

So sorry about the lack of updates, I wouldn't have thought that school would keep me this busy.. lol.  I  got a wind burn on my lips earlier this month >.< and they were all puffy and red and irritated! I was super pissed off about it! It was so flippin embarrassing to have it too because everyone stares at it. I went out to London Drugs the other day to pick up some Vaseline (Steve told me it helped when he had a windburn a long time ago) and I had a choice between a super monster tub for $5 and a super tiny one for $2... I ended up getting the $2 and I'm pretty sure people at school would be like wtf if I showed up with a big tub of Vaseline lol.

Lips nice and wind burned

thanks nature..

I'm really regretting taking that Mandarin class lol, I mean I like the class and all but its just at a super inconvenient time >.< class starts at 6:30pm ends at 8:30pm and then it takes me like an hour and 15 minutes to get home plus there's like a three hour gap between my two classes and I don't know what to do with myself half of the time. When I signed up I thought it would only be an hour class.. boy was I wrong! lol

Man! Steve's mom should never have taken this course, she makes me do all her stupid work! She'll write her shit down in really crappy english (she took university english classes like WTF! she can't even form a simple sentence!) to the point where I have to re-write the whole damn thing and its SUPER FRUSTRATING especially when I have my own school work to do and usually she asks me to do it the day before a fucking test and she gets SUPER bitchy when I don't do it for her.

I've been so exhausted lately, school is really draining my energy T_T I just wish I went to a school that was much closer but that aint happenin! lol

**********

I was craving ramen SO BAD! So we went to Kintaro Ramen on Denman street ^__^ it was soo goooood!! lol I was gonna order the cheese ramen but then I ended up getting the spicy one.

Why yes that is a massive ball of garlic on top lol

This was really good ramen but holy smokes did it make me gassy lol

Steve got this

I guess its more traditional? Not sure which one he got but it was good

 Massive bowls!

I love gyoza!

If you're visiting Vancouver you gotta check this place out! Warning though they have long lines sometimes.

I guess its a short update, I don't expect the next few months to be any more exciting that what I've posted lol mainly because of school. I'll probably post up things that I purchase and have tried.. lol

First School Week

Mini update!

Maaaan I wish I was taking more classes!!

I'm only taking two right now and I have so much spare time its really annoying, I wish I was doing something more productive -___-' not working though, screw that lol.

I'm only taking English and Mandarin since all the other classes I'm waitlisted in are fucking full >.< AND! I didn't know you can actually go to the classes you are waitlisted in to suck up to the teacher, wtf!

So far I really like my English prof, he seems like a really fun guy so I like him for now... LOL. My Mandarin prof on the other hand.. I feel like she treats us like little kids which is annoying so I don't really like her lol but we will see how it goes.

Moop so I'm going to go see a counselor this week to talk about what I can do for next semester and junk :P

How was your first week of school?

Also, I might join kendo club LOL.

August Updates 2013

Its near the end of the month and that means almost back to school time T_T

So far I've only got one class -___-' (I bitched about it in a previous post) but I might actually pick up one more hopefully another but I doubt it, I have one class where only 4 people are ahead of me on the waitlist and the other class has like 26 people ahead of me.. so I doubt I will get into that one but I really hope that I can get into another class. Come on people drop out of that class! LOL

*edit: I got into another class!! WOOHOOO!!

**********

Steve's sister came back to Vancouver in mid-August and she was only here for about three days, the original plan was for her to stay for like a month and help take care of the dog but she had to leave early for some assessment test for school and Steve was all like "she just doesn't to deal with mom" lol. Then they had an explosive argument at like 2AM. They literally screamed at each other, Steve had to bring Monet into our room (where I was) because she was getting scared from all the yelling, she was all shaky :( but calmed down eventually. Most of the argument was about his sister and how she spends lots of money and has no future goals or something...

Speaking of which apparently his mom changed her work plans. She really really wants to open a restaurant so she's going to take her care aide classes (which is one year) and when she graduates she's going to open a restaurant and his sister graduates next year and wants to take a year or two off to help out at the restaurant. One thing that bugs me is that they have no restaurant experience, neither of them has worked at one and they're just going to go eat at other restaurants and steal their ideas lol.

You know what's annoying? When there are tons of sales and you are totally broke lol Poop I am hoping they're still there when I get some moneys T_T but! when I did have $$$ I ordered a CC cream! O_O review coming soon!

Still having some trouble with eyeliner lol since I have monolids it just doesn't show up lol, people with monolids! help me hahahaha

Other than that there's not much I did this month besides go to a wedding and just hang out with my friends :P

100th Post!

Woohooo! This is my 100th Post!

How do I want to commemorate this? By bitching out!

STUPID SCHOOOOOL!

So the school sent me an email telling me that I can register for my program classes at noon on the 27th of June. I logged in at 11:45AM to see if I can access it and it locked me out saying to come back later, So I was like ok I guess I'll have to come back at noon. I come in at 12 on the dot and ALL THE CLASSES ARE FULL. So I'm fucking waitlisted! I'm like WHAT THE FUUUCK?!!?!??!

Here's the problem with this schools registration program: They will let anyone register for anything as long as you meet the prerequisites.

So technically I don't even have to take Kinesiology classes I can take Nutrition classes or business classes. What I should have done was to register for something totally random and then have an earlier registration time then take the classes I want like really WHAT THE HELL!? Why let someone registered for something else take someone elses seat in the class they want?! I'm literally like position 50 in almost all the classes I signed up for and I only get offered a seat when my position is at 0, so basically there are 50 people ahead of me for one fucking class.

On top of that there are some pre-reqs I don't have for certain classes and if I take this one test I won't have to do a certain course which is like $90.

I go ask my dad for $90 and he's like "no, go ask Steve" its like really? FUCK YOU. He's always said "oh I'll pay for your school so you don't have to worry" and then I ask him for fucking $90 and he says no... and he looked at me like I just killed his family.

Well like what the fuck am I going to do when September drops if I can't get into the courses I want? almost everything is full >.< and fuck that I don't want to work.

Rant over lol.

**********

Second Rant Begins.

So we got a new renter who seems like a really nice girl from the UK so she has like no furniture or anything. So She just asked if it was possible to get a bigger bed so I was like that shouldn't be a big deal we have tons upstairs and they're not all being used. So today me and Steve decide to move the bed and my parents FREAKED THE FUCK OUT. They're like "NO! THAT'S OUR BED! WE NEED IT!" Really? You don't even use that bed and nobody ever wants to stay here.

Basically what they mean is give them the shittiest furniture and other used goods because they can't afford to have their own house -___-' like seriously wtf why even rent, not only that this house is FULL of garbage, if I could afford to pay people to come here and throw out all the useless unnecessary furniture and other garbage I would but I can't cause I'm poor lol.

So then they went on a rampage saying that I'm: a bad daughter, lazy, useless, stupid, mentally disabled, etc.. my mom then asks Steve's mom to make some tea and my mom says to her "I look at her face and her mind and she's no good" I'm like are you fucking kidding? Who says that about their own kid?

I hope to god that she fucking dies soon my dad too and I know how some people will say "if your parents die you'll miss them" and all that bullshit and I'm going to say umm.. NO thanks but no thanks I don't think I'll miss verbal abuse.

Do you know what my favorite thing my mom ever said me was? When I was 12 and I wanted to go sleep over at my friends house for their birthday party my mom said "Why do you want to go sleep there? You just want to have sex with their dad don't you because you want to be a prostitute" Ahh preteen memories. And she asks Steve's mom why Ashley and I don't like her... seriously.

My parents, are just pieces of garbage. I wish when me and Ashley were little we were adopted by real parents instead of having these idiots raise us.

Are your parents similar or worse? How do you deal with them? Let's start a support group lol.

What a way to commemorate 100 posts lol I actually wanted to do something more interesting but this hasn't been a good week and I just had to bitch out lol, so I guess I'll save it for the next post.

April Update! Part 1

READY FOR APRIL UPDATES?!?!!??! I would say this is the most eventful month of the year so far! This is probably THE LONGEST post I've ever written lol

We went back to the hospital because I had severe abdominal pain again.
I got a ultrasound a few weeks ago because they had thought it was something in my uterus or something >..< but it turned out normal so they didn't know what it was so they ordered another ultrasound this time focusing on my stomach.

The doctor that was seeing me asked if I had accidentally left a tampon in there >..< apparently that's super common LOL I was like really?!

They made me get a blood test >.<

I'm no druggie!

I went to get the ultrasound for the second time and this time I got a guy technician (who was cute) and I sent Ashley this text message:

LOL

I was at the hospital for 2 hours >.< took a while for them to give me my result. The doctor came in and told me it was gallstones! I was like REALLY? My guess was WAY off! Apparently I can have an elective surgery to remove my gallbladder if I get the pain too often or I'll have to have it if I come down with a fever and severe pain (which I hope it doesn't come down too) but he said at this point he can't really do anything -___-' so I'm thinking of exercising even more and eating less fatty foods? maybe it'll help, perhaps taking a supplement to lower my cholesterol which isn't high but it might help apparently.

The doctor was like "its most common in obese patients" and I was like in my head "well that makes me feel better" T___T LOL. I was hoping it was my appendix since you know.. you don't need it lol and they can take it out but I wanna keep my gallbladder! Don't want no chronic diarrhea after the surgery! lol But I'm really considering doing it, probably in the summer time.

As soon as I got my result I tried to call Steve first but he was at work so then I called my friend who thought it was kidney stones and he freaked out "I FREAKING TOLD YOU IT WAS THAT! YOU SHOULD'VE LISTENED TO ME!" calm yourself! obviously I'm not going to listen to you because YOU'RE NOT A DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and then I had to endure like a 30 minute conversation of him bashing one of our friends that's having a difficult time in his nursing program -____-' so sick of his drama and how he thinks he's better than everyone.

 **********

In other news! I got into the program I wanted! ^_______________________________^

YEAAAAH! I start in September and I have no intention of telling any of my friends only the ones I can trust LOL. So far only 3 maybe 4 people know? Ashley, Steve my good friend Kerry and probably Ashley's husband lol but that's it!

Lol its all blocked out

I know if I tell my friend I talk to most often he'll just try to convince me to not go to school and that I should abandon the program (what a good friend huh?) he's tried multiple times with various things (same one that thinks he's a doctor LOL) So if he finds out on his own then I'll just tell him I thought I had told him or I forgot hahaha. He told me before "You can't even do much with a Kinesiology degree and if you do become a physiotherapist they get like no pay they start at like $17 an hour" Obviously I didn't believe him cause I did my research before applying LOL. I even checked VCH's website (Vancouver coastal health) and physiotherapists start at like $37/38 or something LOL I think he thinks I'm super gullible or something or he wants to ruin my life.

He graduated almost a year ago from his make-up school program but never tried to find a job or try to work on his portfolio so now he's planning on going back to school for a lab assistant thing (basically you draw out blood out of people for testing, who knew you just had to take a 1-year class to do it?) but he's like $16,000 in the hole because of the make up school so I was pretty surprised that he didn't pursue it since he spent so much on it and he kept boasting about his super awesome makeup abilities lol. His mom is pretty upset about it which I would be too if I were her.

I'm getting a little worried about him, I think his mind might be slowly drifting, I can tell there's been a change in the last few years and its not for the better.. it could be stress related but who knows, I don't think I'll bring it up with him though unless he goes super mental.

I need new friends lol.

**********

My bangs are growing out.. and I'm not sure if I should get a trim or grow them out.

Creepy lol.. I got my haircut back in February so its grown out quite a bit

I think I'm going to just grow it out, I was pretty upset when they first cut my hair lol and I think it makes my face look super fat lol. Steve wants me to keep the bangs though but I don't care what he thinks lol. Hopefully it will be at a decent length by the time its summer :D

I also pulled out Steve's blackheads LOL

He has like super nice clear skin that he never washes/exfoliates (seriously he just rolls out of bed and puts on clothes and leaves) but he gets nasty blackheads on his nose. I do this about once every few months, especially when there's a special occasion, I'll just use tweezers since they come out so easily and then a pore tightening mask afterwards as well as toner and some other stuff to close the pores.

**********

 I also super re-organized the room but it still needs some more work.

 The super messy before shot

Before I moved everything (by myself -___-') I felt that the room had absolutely no space to move around and that everything was super cramped especially when it came to using my desk so I decided to rotate the bed in hopes of freeing up some room

 Yeah.. during the moving process I had to throw a lot of stuff onto this drawer where I keep my beauty products as well as our pants and accessories

More organized!

At one point I got the bed stuck lol but managed to move it and boy did it free up TONS of room! 

So much better now! I can actually sit comfortably at my desk without being squished! 

Steve likes to move around when we sleep he usually pushes me to one side but because the wall is there he can't push me off lol. I was sneaky and chose this side of the room to place the bed because my parents like to leave the heat on during the night our room gets super hot but since I sleep against the wall I can open the window a crack and Steve can get all hot and sweaty lol, this will be especially good during the summer :P

Still have to decide what we're going to do with the living room.. any suggestions?

 So messy! lol

 I blame Steve since I never go there and its all his parents crap in there lol

We want to re-arrange the living room so there's more space but its so cluttered! hmm... what should we do..

**********

Ashley's husband's mom got re-married and I got the chance to attend her wedding, which was interesting in its own way since I've never really met my brother-in-laws side of the family (except one of his cousins that I went on a date with LOL)

I've only been to like 2 weddings, Ashley's and this one. Are they usually quick? I would've thought they would be longer minimum like 30 minutes. I guess if you aren't religious then the ceremony would be super quick since you don't have to do any of the religious traditions... non-religious people let me know! But a short ceremony works for me! Since I have a short attention span lol.

Small ceremony!

Me and Steve talk about what we would do if we get married and had a wedding. I want a simple small one with close friends and favorite aunts/uncles/cousins lol but not ALL of them. Steve's mom insists that we should have a church ceremony (neither of us are religious only his parents are) and that we should invite ALL of his family (that's like 300 people) and do it in Korea, No thank you why the fuck do we have to do it in Korea? To accommodate YOU AND YOUR FAMILY?! And if my family and friends want to come they all have to spend thousands of dollars on plane tickets and hotels, how very considerate. If I had it my way we would just do it in Hawaii or some other destination with like 20 people max lol but I know that ain't gonna happen T..T If Steve insists on doing it in Korea then I'm not showing up LOL he knows that I don't want it and neither does he as far as he has told me.

**********

We're heading back down to the states at the beginning of next week since Steve has to pick up his wheels. I don't think we'll be heading back for the rest of the year. We always talk about going back down for Black Friday but I never really buy that much anyways so.. yeah its kind of pointless. We might come down for Christmas? but who knows Ashley and her husband might decide to come up this year

I doubt anything eventful will happen for the rest of the month besides the fact that Steve's mom is coming back which she changed her flight schedule on us again and didn't tell us so she comes on the 17th instead of the 19th -____-'
