saturday march 13, 8:03pm

went out with sugi, melina, and their accounting friends...i thought i wouldnt know anyone...but ended up one of the girls i met at orientation 4 yrs ago, one guy i knew from working at tapioca cuz he came in a lot, and another guy was in my class 2 semesters ago...

not sure how to react to something like this... r.i.p max my thoughts go out to his family and friends...<not your fault>

he was genuinely a very nice guy. spoke an impressive amount of chinese! very easy to talk to. will be missed by many.

heres another personality test:

Who you are

You're a woman who always reaches out to help.
You bring real passion to your life. To you life is about connecting emotionally with the people in your life and trying to make a difference in the world around you. You refuse to settle long-term for a boring job or doing something just because it's expected of you. Love is the same way. Despite your natural charm, you can't pretend to care for someone if you're missing a deep connection. You know what real love feels like and you'll accept no imitations! You're ready and able to experience romance and a powerful "spark" with someone special.

What's dating all about to you?
You're a true romantic. To you, finding a loving relationship is a mission or journey with clear goals and even a timeline. Falling in love is an especially magical experience. You're suddenly free from the rules and thinking that guide your life. You usually keep your feelings and life under control. But remember, the bigger the dam, the bigger the flood when it breaks!

How unique is your type?
Your personality profile is similar to a number of women your age. Looking at over 10,000 women who have taken the test, about 7% (or 1 in 14 women) have very similar beliefs, values, and habits. Of course, the way these qualities are expressed in you is what makes you so unique. (very similar: 7%, somewhat like: 14% very different: 79%)

Quirks men notice
Like all women, you have your strengths as well as your quirks and shortcomings. Ultimately, you want to find someone who will love and accept you "warts and all." Though you have lots of friends, it's important to have at least one person in your life who understands. You have a pretty even-tempered personality and may not have any especially annoying or quirky habits. Of course, seeming to be "perfect" could be seen as a flaw by some, in which case you may just want to pretend to have a bad habit!

Do men like your type?
Notice that 35% of men are generally attracted to your personality type. 14% say they are VERY attracted. With the millions of people on Match.com, that translates into lots of potential matches. (very: 14% attracted: 21% neutral: 64%turned off: 1%)

Who you're looking for

He'll be an enigma.
You're looking for a man who's a natural leader. He has a successful career, and his charisma draws people to him. He'll probably "dazzle" you from the first moment you meet. Given his charm, energy and warmth, it won't be surprising to find he's loved by a wide network of friends and family. He lives a very ordered and busy life, since he's always juggling his career, family and friends, and his involvement in community or social causes. You'll soon learn that he's a man you can respect and count on to do what he says he'll do.

hmm...theres a lot more...and im sure you dont care...so im not going to post the rest of it...haha
