I started working on some little outfit accomplices after some boring days passed by. These are what I've made so far. They are all hand sewn due to my sewing machine being a piece of crap :/ If I have one of those big real sewing machines, it would take me so long, and it wouldn't look as sloppy. & Yes some of the stitching is crooked but whatever,

Magical Mayhem
So lately, the world of magic has greatly intruiged me. It all started after I watched Ed Alonzo at Great America perform. His combination of comedy and magic really wowed me. After seeing his performance, I wanted to meet him because he was signing after the show, but my anxious little brother didn't want to wait in line, so we left. I'm kicking myself right now, for missing this chance to meet an actual celebrity. If you didn't recognize his name or picture now, you might remember him as Max the diner owner of The Max on the hit TV show Saved By The Bell. He's going to be at Great America until September 1st. Then he's coming back again to Santa Clara to perform at the Halloween Haunt. Hopefully I will have the opportunity to meet him again. I've been learning simple magic tricks lately. It definetely helps the time pass. So far I've learned 2 coin tricks and 2 card tricks. I've noticed by trying to learn these tricks, my hands are very small. I can't palm coins in my hand due to the lack of fat being able to grip it. And I cannot fully perform the "shapeshifter" trick because the gap between my thumb and index finger is so small.

Summer!
Hm so basically I haven't been blogging everysingle day. But on the plus side, it's because I've been occupied for once. So last saturday, my family & I decided to go swimming. It brought my parents so much closer. The week before they barely acknowledged the others prescence. Then after my family was done swimming I invited some of my friends over to go swimming. It was funny becasue we heard thunder and had doubts about going swimming. But we did anyway. Took some pictures by the pool and stuff. And dranks pink lemonade in ice cream glasses. It was all because Julie wanted to take a picture in the jacuzzi. I caught up on the latests with everyone, and we just sat, ate, watched the monkees, and played wii. When Sherry left. Kristine, Julie & I made a youtube video called The Monkees Spoof. It's pretty cool you should check it out.
Sunday went to Ikea, and started looking around for bedroom ideas. My mom will not permit me to paint my room so we were just looking for some stuff to stick on my wall. At first I wanted my room to be super colorful. But due to not painting the walls, I'm sticking strictly to Black&white. So we bought these 5 little mirrors to stick above my bed. We were about to buy some fabric with flower shilloutes and stickers but I wasn't too sure. My mom wouldnt let me get a rug either -__-. But She said next time we'll buy this really cute book shelf thats black with white flowers and leaves. I can't wait for the finished project.
Aside from dreaming about my dream room, I've been cleaning basically everysingle day. I know I'm such a good girl :). But I think it's because I'm avoiding my English AP homework. I'm currently reading The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell. It's pretty interessting. I haven't even finished chapter one, but I am determined to finish that chapter by tonight.
So I don't know what the rest of my plans are for the summer. Probably going to Great America on July 4th with my aunt. So I must say goodbye and end it here. I should finish the rest of chapter one.
Au revoir.

Father's Day
So today was Fathers day. It was a pretty relaxed day. I woke up early around 7 or so and baked my dad brownies. (Which are delicious by the way). Then went to eat at Black Angus. I ate so much, I think I became a cow. After went home to rest for a while, then went to Great Mall for my sisters piano lessons. Saw a bunch of familiar faces. I also finally bought my crochet hat! Er, well my dad did. I'm completely broke. Right after the mall, my mom and two siblings headed over to my grandmas house for a little party. My dad never goes to any family parties. He's very anitsocial. After all was done, we came back home and I had to massage my dad's stinky feet.
Well tomorrow marks the first day of summer. No school! But still it feels like a week of summer already passed, even though it's just the weekend. Hopefully summer will get better.
That's all for now. Tune in tomorrow to read my oh so boring day blog :)

What You've Missed
I used to watch these guys ever since I was little. Of course I wasn't born around that era, but my parents used to play re-runs for me. I love the corny situations, the jokes, the "romance", and 3 attractive guys running around doing crazy antics. Yes there are 4: Peter Tork, Mike Nesmith, Mickey Dolenz, & Davy Jones. But again I said only 3 are attractive. Meaning Davy isn't one of them. I love their songs and the melodies of all of them. I have successfully learned how to play "I'm A Believer" on the guitar. If you haven't had a chance to watch the monkees, you should search it up on YouTube. I would've suggested that you check them out on Comcast OnDemand, but they recently took it out. Also from watching this series, I've fell in love with their style! I am making an effort to change my wardrobe into the 1960's. Posted by Allison Chan at 10:55 PM 0 comments

What a Disgrace!
I'm sorry for not checking in as often. Life has been very busy. So I think where I left off was my birthday party. It went swell. Pictures can be found on my myspace which is: www.myspace.com/comedy_is_here
This week is spring break but it's almost over. I went to the beach, hung out with friends and finally got to see my boyfriend after almost 2 weeks. one week he's been out because he's been terribly sick, and then 4 days he was in Vegas with Patrick.
I really don't want to go back to school. I'm not ready to deal with all of the stress again. I've done nothing school related this break, and probably when school kicks in again, I will be totally dumbfounded.
In other news today I watched the Kids Choice Awards. Each year the awards show gets worse. I was very upset with some of the winners and some performances. I can't believe that Fall Out Boy, Linkin Park, and Boys Like Girls got beaten by a stupid boy band, Jonas Brothers. Then Alvin and the Chipmunks beat movies such as Pirate Of The Caribbean, Transformers! It's all very surprising. I also think the voting is rigged because they usually just give to the award to the celebrity who actually shows up to the awards. Although I am glad Johnny Depp won for Best Movie Actor, I was upset because he wasn't there. They never do via satalite for any celebrities!The best KCA was in 2005. Simple Plan performed, and Johnny Depp was there and he got slimed. Except in 2005 I really didn't know who Johnny Depp was, but I fell in love with Simple Plan after their performance because of the lyrics to "Shut Up"
Well my grandma is telling to to go to sleep, so it shall end here.
