meme from... everyone...

you know how sometimes people on your friends list post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think, "wait a minute? since when were they working there? since when were they dating him/her? since when!?" and then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you should already know? it happens to all of us sometimes.

please copy the topics below, erase my answers and put yours in their place, and then post it in your journal! please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration. one-word-answers seldom help anyone out. (:

FIRST NAME: jessie. there isn't any interesting story behind it -- it just means "god is gracious" or something. i don't really have any nicknames (my rl friends just call me jessie and only my teachers or lb say "jess," haha) but i'm fine with whatever, really. my chinese name is jing lin (靜霖). i've also started going by dellingr/del in some places (mostly sekamero).

AGE: seventeen, often mistaken for younger /sighhhh (i'm asian)

LOCATION: i technically live in greenburgh/edgemont, but i've gotten used to saying scarsdale since i have a scarsdale mailing address. either way, both are in westchester county, new york. it's pretty nice here and only about a half hour from the city. i uhhh DON'T HAVE MUCH ELSE TO SAY (we're on wikipedia? lol idk)

OCCUPATION: high school senior, first semester. you know how it gets around now. (HHNNNNNGGGGGGGRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAA)

PARTNER: nominally engaged to rebecca gold just for fun, but otherwise have no interest in romantic relationships and honestly don't really get the point ffffffff forever in deeply romantic passionate lovey love with rebecca gold, who requested i amend my previous mistake in return for sexual favors

KIDS: aaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAA never leave me alone with a small child i will PUNCH IT IN THE FACE (that means no)

BROTHERS/SISTERS: one younger brother, william, age fourteen. we used to really hate each other until about a year ago, but since then things have gone a bit more smoothly. i'm not exactly sure what happened, but last thanksgiving we stayed over at a family friend's house and watched movies for like three days in a row and after that we just MAGICALLY GOT ALONG idek. we shared a hotel room in hong kong this past summer and i guess it was a great ~~~SIBLING BONDING EXPERIENCE~~~ HAHAHA we watched a lot of tv together and played video games and stuff and ACTUALLY HAD CONVERSATIONS WITHOUT ME WANTING TO CUT OFF HIS HEAD WITH A CLOTHES HANGER or something. i wouldn't say we're extremely close (during the school year we hardly talk at all) but the atmosphere between us has definitely improved from a few years ago and we frequently make poop jokes and stuff together.

PETS: i've gone through like three hamsters THEY ALL DIED but i now have a dog named truffle, a mix of something-or-other i have no idea. he is ridiculously spoiled and barks when you sneeze and has absolutely no sense of smell at all and NEVER STOPS LICKING MY HAND but he is very friendly and i love him. i also desperately want an axolotl (or a snake, maybe) and might get one when i go to college, if i'm allowed.

3-5 BIG THINGS GOING ON: RIGHT NOW EVERYTHING IS BASICALLY COLLEGE APPS, UNLESS IT'S SCHOOLWORK OR TESTS OR SOMETHING ELSE KIND OF RELATED TO SCHOOL OR COLLEGE. i had an interview friday and yesterday and i have another one on monday, and then i'll be done with interviews and can focus completely on essays fml. OH but i'll be hearing back from bard college some time this week since i applied to their (non-binding) immediate decision program. if i get in i'll hopefully be able to relax a little bit and possibly cut out a bunch of my safety schools, haha. other than that uhhhhh i have senior forum on tuesday and wednesday which is like TWO DAYS OF FUN so that'll also be a nice break yay. in addition to essays there's also my portfolio to work on, which reminds me that i still need to post a giant artdump some time soon (maybe) ffffff

PARENTS: my dad is 48, though he often gets mistaken for older and sometimes gets asked about his "grandchildren." he was a structural engineer and one of the heads of his company up until a few years ago when he decided to quit his job and go to seminary to become a pastor. it sounds like a pretty huge change but it actually hasn't been a big deal, really. uhh he's a really authoritative and take-control type of person, and apparently gives off a really... idk INVINCIBLE/DAUNTLESS aura (i don't see it HAHAHA), but SECRETLY HE CRIES AT PIXAR MOVIES (LIKE RATATOUILLE), NO LIE. my mom is 45/46? i think? fuck idk. she's a landscape architect and usually works at home. i'm not as close with her as i am with my dad and sometimes we have trouble communicating, especially with college apps and everything she's been like BREATHING DOWN MY NECK 24/7 but she really does care, honestly. nnnn i guess i'm pretty lucky, my parents get along really well and care about me and have been really supportive throughout my life, hahaha.

CLOSEST FRIENDS: IRL there's US, whatever we're called (we totally need a name): ruriko and grace and ben and ross scott and andre and kyara and rebecca and newman and alissa and noah (when he's around) and sharon and lyle and THESE ARE MY NAKAMA. uhhh online i tend to lurk and not comment or initiate conversation or anything so i don't really have any SUPER CLOSE FRIENDS but you are all still fantabulotastically awesome and GREAT FRIENDS, FOR SURE.

what's google wave?
[identity profile] pyrotol.livejournal.com on November 23rd, 2009 02:30 am (UTC)
it's like this ~~~innovative new thing~~~ by google I'M ACTUALLY NOT COMPLETELY SURE WHAT IT IS but wiki says:
"a personal communication and collaboration tool"
"a web-based service, computing platform, and communications protocol designed to merge e-mail, instant messaging, wikis, and social networking"

except nobody has an invite so the social networking aspect is kind of failing

done!

idk how long it'll take for you to get it, though. invites seem to be slow and the invite page says, "Invitations will not be sent immediately. We have a lot of stamps to lick."

yay thanks :D

it's cool, I've got stuff to do today anyway.
