so if you're lonely, you know i'm here waiting for you.

first time in my bed at home for more than a month, and i already miss my home at berkeley. but wait, so many friends to see, so many things to do, so much to catch up on! happy thanksgiving, but the real celebration comes tonight, with all the family and food! those potatoes mashed up, the pumpkin pie whipped with cream, the stuffing unstuffed, ahhh the goodness! and i'll finally be able to see all my aunts and uncles, the cousins big and small and smaller. i miss them! i hope i'm not the center of attention now that i'm a college boy..

things to get (generally prioritized?): digital slr camera ("eek!" with excitement and by looking at the prices), longboard, umbrella, ds cycloevolution card, shoes, acoustic guitar, pants, sunglasses.

yes, i got called out as a victim of blog chains, but unlike mindy here, i'm going to keep this at 16 facts, and this time, i'm passing it on to you, alex (asis). enjoy!

16 random facts about me:

1. i'm insecure about my future, afraid i won't find the "things i love with a passion," that i'll regret my job.

2. i'm shy, more of an introvert, but i love attention! ;) (hence, why i know how to play the guitar)

3. i've learned to live with masks so well that it's hard to show my true colors.

4. i'm afraid of being forgotten.

5. i love the feeling of looking through the viewfinder and hearing the click of the shutter as a piece of me gets recorded on the negative of film. (but digital works just as well!)

6. i tend to pick favorites

7. i don't really feel creative. i'm just really (really really) good at copying!

8. i hate bugs with a passion.

9. i have really good visual memory! so if i happen to remember you address or phone number, don't automatically think i'm a creep (though that may be part of it ;P)

10. people go to me for relationship advice, but looking back at my own love life, i'm not really sure why.

11. if i was able to change any physical aspect of me, i would have a super sexy, amazing singing voice on par with john mayer's as well as his super sexy, amazing guitar skills.

12. i'm relatively good at sight reading piano music, but i'd really wish i could play music on the spot.

13. i regret so much that has happened, thinking 'if only...'...

14. i'm a human sponge that soaks up all negative feelings and i've never really been angry (i.e. in a rage) at anyone since i was a small kid. sometimes, i wish i could explode.

15. if someone were to sing for me, i would go with you into the streets and play the guitar for money

16. i always listen
