Li Hongzhang's Poem After 1895 Treaty of Shimonoseki:

I was inspired by the House of Flying Daggers

Having never released horse saddles or left chariots,

I painstakingly worked out;

Till the reckoning of disaster did I find out

that it was not easy to simply die.

For 300 years, the foot-steps of my motherland had been staggering;

Along the road of 8000 li distance

were scenes of hardship-stricken mourning populace.

In the sobre autumn winds, I, a minister in solitude, was in tears

beside my treasured sword;

With the sun setting, I now stand by the campaigning flag on the generalissimo's altar;

Dusts of war are still floating over all seas, with no sign of settling down;

Gentlemen, please not look upon the developments of our country

as a disinterested bystander.

I am oh sooo Toasted!!!

Today, 20th of May 2005, with a 95 degrees Farenheit temperature outside, my bosom bud and I walked in the cool mall and watched Crash and Monster-in-Law, tsowee kids, I don't wanna watch SW3, at least not until the DVD boxed set (from episodes 1-6) is released. I lurve Sandra B. and I have this tiny crush on Brendan F. but that's not the reason why I wanna see the flick. I wanna see it because it talks about a societal problem that you can encounter everyday, either with your direct involvement or without --- racism. The chick flick was what my gal pal wanted to watch so that's all about it, heheheh =P After being so emotional with Crash, especially in the scene where a Mexican locksmith's daughter hugged her dad to protect him from the bullet shot by an Iranian client who got robbed, we went for a quick read in Borders and then [window-]shopping at Hot Topic. I was really planning on buying something today but this guy in Hot Topic smells so handsomely and was almost everywhere near me that I keep on forgetting why I am in there, what I wanted to buy, and that I have a friend with me. Minutes later I recollected myself and picked up the garments I aimed to buy. I went to the cashier to pay for my puchase but the Audrey (or was it Aubrey) lassie snobbed me so the odoriferous hottie named Justin came to be of service instead. Aside from looking like hell with my hair being blown by the humid wind and lack of sleep last night, the things I wanted to pay for were not to be seen by a guy being purchased by me and I don't have to demand the bitch to come and take care of me instead, right? Ergo, I awkwardly put the two items on the counter and let him enter the digits. I just wanted it to be over when he told me, "You know we've got a lot of cool underwears in stock here," I was so astonished that my rehearsed line that I'm buying those S&M-ish undergraments for my friend's bridal shower went down the drain and instead I answered, "Oh yeah, but these are the only ones that would fit my boobs," so casually then realized it after a few seconds. My blood rushed all-over my body and I felt fever hot with embarassment after it hit me I went to my friend's arms and bit her. Oh dear Lord! I fuckingly screwed myself up!!! I dunno if I can go back to that place again tomorrow to turn my application form in. Ahuhuhuhuh T_T
