<p>I am Taiwanese and this is my second year in USA…
I’ll become a senior in Sep., and college application is AHEAD…
I didn’t do well in SAT…I took it in Jan. and April; however, I got the same score…
So, I decide to concentrate on ACT practice…the math and science in ACT is a little bit difficult, but English is easier than SAT.</p>
<p>I’ll go back to Taiwan for summer vocation and take the TOEFL-iBT there…I miss my family and friends there…好想台灣唷~><"</p>
<p>im so lame… has anyone heard of 183club or 5566? well… its like my new F4… which means a brief period of extreme obsession followed by extreme sickness</p>
<p>i also discovered a whole new level of appreciation for jay chou lately… when i first heard his songs like 5 years ago, i thought it was some pocrap written by a team of songwritters like those for backstreetboys, sung by a guy who doesn’t really have lots of talent so he’s just talking, but then, the more i listen to his songs the more i like them, and then i realize he was the one who wrote them… and then if i listen to it more deeply, i realize there’s so much musical geniusness to it comparable/parallel to mozart and chopin. each of his song is… fresh… yet at the same time you can tell right away its his. </p>
<p>stuff like s.h.e., F4, 183club, cyndi wang, jolin is just… pure cheap crap, but then… its cheap thrill; first 5-10 times hearing it is actually pretty nice. right now im in love with jay chou, f.i.r., 周健雄, and maybe 王力宏 just cuz he’s smart hehe</p>
<p>er… yes… music on cc, unfit, but this is the only forum im subscribed to and im too lazy to jump into new ones like asianfanatics, so bare with me</p>
<p>and er… yes… last 2 days of final im procrastinating to DEATH.</p>
<p>DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH </p>

<p>WoW! It is AMAZING to see so many HIGH ACHIEVERS here. I cannot possibly read all the threads since there is SO MANY! Congrat to all of you!
Ok…here’s a bit about me…I was born in Hangzhou, raised in HK, attended junior high and high school in New Zealand and now I’m here in the US.
I’m going to transfer to Cornell (ILR), instead of UC Berkeley (Haas)—HARD CHOICE, UCLA, UCSD. UCD and UC Irvine. Nice to meet you all!!!</p>
<p>i find it interesting that yahoo.cn gives 3.5G mailbox space, even more than gmail, which is like 2.7 as of now? but then… the rest of yahoo is 1G, like yahoo.hk, yahoo.tw, uk.yahoo.com… etc, and u can send 10mb attachment with yahoo.hk, but then 20mb attachments with yahoo.cn</p>
<p>i love yahoo. ha. </p>
<p>just like how i HATE and despise lin zhi ling (chiling lin… oh PULEASE, what is she trying to prove, “chiling”?) at first because her voice was really fake, and she talks weird, like she has pronounciation problems and i was thinking she should get speech lessons, but now learning she’s a sectionist ( 台独 ), even AFTER recovering from her sickness after treatment in da lian.</p>
<p>lol here’s a link with some stars when they were young</p>
<p>i am shocked at how unpretty jolin cai and elva xiao were, but zhang ziyi was pretty</p>
<p>all the seniors in our school finished their high school career today!!! they are all happy. but for me, that means 80% of the people i know in the school are gone. sigh</p>
<p>i’m here, i’m from chengdu
anyone has any opinions about the korean war? i’m writing a term paper about it argueing that it’s unnessasery for the US to cross the 38 paralell.</p>
