LinkedInA history of Byron (on/around 10/11)
A combination
of guilt and other feelings
make me want to write
I don’t know what I’m really expecting from this year. But, just for fun, here’s some stuff I’ve put up in previous years. Let’s go backwards and see what things were like. Apologies, I know that reading stuff about me isn’t all that interesting, but I think sometimes it’s the easiest way to ease back into things. Also, sorry about the length – I don’t really want to write super long stuff, but sometimes it just happens.
its snowing and pretty =]
Oh Freshman year. That was parents weekend, and my mom came to visit me at NU. It was the first snow of the year – and it was one of the prettiest things I had ever seen. Fluffy snow, floating from the sky. My mom was at a cafe that day while I was in class, and she told me about how she saw it start to snow and stop snowing, and how it melted away when she left. Oh how that gives absolutely no indication of what winter is really like in Chicago
An old animation I found. It was someone’s Xanga profile picture, and I downloaded it.
10/11/05 (multiple posts in a day, oh high school)
Byron currently wants to read….
Jennifer Government and Syrup by Max Barry. i heard they were good, I’ve read a bit of Jennifer Government, if anyone sees those let me know? =)
Well that’s something I’ve gone and done. They are both quite interesting books – both look at American corporate culture and draw them to the extremes to make us realize how insane we are. They bring up some interesting concepts – I wonder if i would be able to understand/appreciate those better now.
im getting shafted in my sciences….chem is murder cuz seran is grading me hard….not really i just suck at studying…im pulling physics off okay also…..
im SO lucky cuz i have a b in both classes and in both classes my quiz avg is like a d….so yeah XD and test in chem is like c and phys is b- but lucky me a lot of the grade is labs and hw…..so *phew*
science bowl today…we kick “bum” so to speak……lol we are number in ALL OF CALIFORNIA who took the qualification thingy so far!! WOOOOOOOT lol (too bad there were only two teams who did today lol)
21/30 so yeah……
so anyways, youth group people?
Basically to preface this, I was kind of one of those asians back in HS. You know what I mean. Explanation for the first bit – I was taking Chem AP and Physics Honors at the same time. Probably one of the more stupid things I did in high school – I got destroyed by both of them (But then again, that’s just like college. Guess things haven’t changed). Additionally yes, I was on one of the science bowl teams my school made. We basically made it through the qualifiers and then got cut the first round because none of us actually knew anything. Good times.
That last statement was regarding a previous post. My mom wanted me to join youth group that year. I didn’t want to, but I asked my friends what they thought. Not really anybody told me anything. Now, 6 years later, I go to LIFE group and learn new things. I guess in another 6 years we can see which way this goes
…i have a strange feeling im phasing out of this world…..unnoticed…….it started as an AIM thing, then into a guild…..into choir……and how its high school…..just watch…i’ll leave and no one will notice….
I was a really emo kid my sophomore and junior year. Things were going badly with all my friends because people just started not talking to me. There were radical shifts in friend groups (this upheaval occurred multiple times actually – basically annually in high school). I apparently was also trying to figure out who to ask to the Homecoming Dance. Previous posts included a lot of really dark thoughts and me just trying to get someone to listen to me. High school bad times indeed (also I ended up not going to the dance)
So it appears that I’ve grown and changed in some aspects, but I’m still the same in others. I still have massive friend upheavals, hate academics, and have stress related depression (to a degree, I guess). Perhaps I just like my emo tendencies, since they were a central part of my personality back then. At least I write with correct grammar and such.
Again, we’ll see what happens in another 6 years. I’ll hopefully not be in school anymore.
