and tripped and sprained my knee. Go me!!!! =) Yes, what an Anna thing to do. Now hold up, wait a minute, don't go rushing to the local post office to send me get well packages yet, folks. It's nothing big and I should be fine in a day or two.
Now some people were shocked when they heard Anna did this rushing to dance practice. Anna. Anna Yeung. Dancing. Yeah. Anna. The girl with about as much poise, grace, and elegance as silly putty. I'm not too confident about that either, but we'll see how it works out!
Also, it's come to my attention that some of you guys have been spreading inflated rumors about my exploits here on the east coast. Please talk to me for the real scoop, and I'll be really honest because I wouldn't want any of you walking around thinking I've become some sort of hardcore crazy social butterfly that never sleeps. Don't worry, Anna is staying way in the boundaries! =)
Classes, classes, classes... what can I say besides chinese is kicking my ass, and isn't that sad? I am chinese for god's sake, you'd think I would be able to cope with my own language!
Furthermore, I miss all of you guys like crazy, and I can't believe I still have like, 2.5 months till I see all of you again. However, I am super pshyced that everyone has started school though! Now you will understand my frustration, lol.
Signing off for the night, ta ta!
XXOO,
Anna

My unborn babies...
created blogspot.
J/k!
Settling into life here right now, it's a total rollercoaster ride still!
Ups: classes, people, atmosphere, being able to do what I want, whenever I want
Downs: The chinese department, something else, the weather!
Chinese department: I know they're trying, but omg, totally frustrating dealing with them and trying to form a class that will actually take cantonese students! They've been pushing me from class to class, and I failed the first quiz at Harvard because I didn't know about it! =(
Classes:
Economics 10 is taught by the Greg Mankiw, who probably wrote whatever Economics books you're using right now. It's an interesting class, except there's like, 1000 or so kids in it so we're in a theater where it's sooo easy to fall asleep!
Expository writing: don't know yet, but I'm pushing for "tales of murder". Fingers crossed please?
Hebrew Bible: Long story. interesting class! Talk more about it later
Chinese Ba: Maybe? Also long story!
Social Life: went to the Democrats Party: couldn't get through door. went to Chinese Students Association party. That one got busted. Went to one at Kappa something? Awkward without friends around, me and my floormates left ASAP! =( When I signed onto harvard, I was promised a social life. Not exactly happening yet, I want a refund!
more later, tired.

Move-In Day...
and I'm in. Got lucky through a coin toss and I have a single for now. Not lovin' it here. =( Want to go home already. Everyone else is clicking and seems to know a bunch of people, I'm walking around acting like this awkward loser. It magnificently sucks. So my cousin tried to warn me that I should get to know everyone around here ASAP, and everyone back home goes, "Oh, it's sooo easy to make new friends, make sure you do it soon, just talk and act friendly," but no, it's totally not working and is alot harder than it seems. Worse, everyone else seems to have become best friends with their roommates, and all of mine are cool, but I definitely haven't reached that point right now. Darnit, I knew I should have just tried to flunk senior year, I'm not ready for this! Help!
Oh, and the electricity ran out in most of the school last night, I was lucky. People had to sleep in the gym on cots or in the science lecture halls. At Harvard. Seriously! It's wierd having your own room. =(

I'm shipping up to Boston...
and I'm scheduled to be there tomorrow. Damn! Anyways, my flight is tonight at 10:50, so I still have a good five hours or so before I'm out of here? I haven't even left the state and I'm already depressed. Maybe mom was right, I should have stayed closer to home!... No, actually, I would probably be complaining that I should have gone farther, the world happens to turn like that.
And yeah, what should go here is a really long rant about how sad I am to be leaving and everything, but I think you already get the picture. Also, I'm really at a loss for words (I know, shocking, isn't it?)!
Anyways, if you're reading this, you can bet that I will most likely miss you like crazy and the fact that I'm leaving everyone here is killing me.
More when I get there!

A little less...
than 48 hours till my flight?
I actually woke up and realized, "Holy crap, did I realize what I signed myself into when I pushed the 'attending' button?" Had to do goodbyes today. It stung worse than pulling off a really sticky band-aid. Maybe it would have been better to sneak off slowly in the night without warning, lol.
Maybe I can chain myself to the wall? That way, at least I'll be able to stay for a bit longer!
