Congratulations to my fellow Class of 2005 classmates! It has been a great ride and I enjoyed every minute with each and everyone. Thanks to those who stood by me (family, Emily, brothers, friends, etc.) What is next for everyone? Some will find joy in traveling while others will enter the work force. As for Khoa, a chapter closes and a new one waiting. I will be going to Philadelphia to attend law school this fall. I am excited, yet scared, happy yet sad, joyful but fearful. I carry on my past and experiences, but yet, I leave all my love ones: from family to friends, brothers to significant other, professors to co-workers, and my college life. It seems as though I was only 17 (4 years ago) when I first stepped onto campus and now, like a snap, I turned my tassel to the left side of my black graduation cap. Where did all the time go? Did it all go to late night studying, or arguing with the girlfriend, OR…having too much fun with Sigma Nu brothers? Unfortunately, most likely it was not the last reason, more so studying than partying. My Made in China plate grew wider and wider as time passed and too many things covered the innocent white surface. Within couple more weeks, I’ll have a fresh one waiting to be filled up with more stress, lack of sleep, and legal studies.
My roommate is from Boston sharing a 2bed/bath with me. I’m really excited to go away from Orange County and explore something else. Don’t get me wrong, I love this town and the people, I just need a little change. Don’t get your hopes up; I’ll eventually come back here. I am going to miss everyone. Change…sigh, I guess that’s life. I racked up a heavy sum of loans for going to an east coast school, it better be worth it. I am specializing in trail advocacy and litigation (the school’s program is #1 in the country). Anyways, hopefully I will try updating this a little more often.
Last “real” summer, the summer between undergraduate studies and law school. I went to Hawaii two weeks ago with professor and colleagues – Waikiki for a school-sponsored conference. Fully paid – it was fun.
Emily and I will be going back there to Maui before I leave for school (AUGUST 19th that is).
I am also visiting Philly in July. Slaving away at the law firm and restaurant to pay for all my bling bling travel expenses. BTW, I’m selling my baby car and my fish tank! =(((. I plan to relax (which never happens), spend time with family and Emily as much as possible. Take the GMAT and hopefully read a bit.
I always tell Emily that it is never a “Good-Bye”, but a “I’ll see you soon.”
My sister and Ken got me a dell laptop for my graduation present. Check it out: =))

| I am at work. I am getting fat - need to excercise. Need to study. Senioritis formally has kicked in. My eyes hurt because I’m exhausted.
Blah, I wanted to write something but I lost it.
Check out these lyrics from The Used: it’s crazy.
Small, simple, safe price.
Rise the wake and carry me with all of my regrets.
This is not a small cut that scabs, and dries, and flakes, and heals.
And I am not afraid to die.
I'm not afraid to bleed, and fuck, and fight.
I want the pain of payment.
What's left, but a section of pigmy size cuts.
Much like a slew of a thousand unwanted fucks.
Would you be my little cut?
Would you be my thousand fucks?
And make mark leaving space for the guilt to be liquid.
To fill, and spill over, and under my thoughts.
My sad, sorry, selfish cry out to the cutter.
I'm cutting trying to picture your black broken heart.
Love is not like anything.
Especially a fucking knife.

| It is Friday and I am at work. My schedule has become outrageously out of control with school, work, meetings, school, working, meetings, you get the point. Time flies when you are having too much fun – well for the most part. Despite all my complaining and whining about stress, etc., I am living life – just cruising through life. If everything else fails, I will still have myself. After learning about memory and brain structures, I find that we all take our brain for granted. Say thank you to the most integrate structure in the universal existence (so far). It makes who you are so don’t take it for granted.
Random, Game Theory can explain everything in the world. I promise you.
I want to know where I will be attending next fall! Still, waiting for Wisconsin and I will not hear anything till late May. LATE MAY. I requested housing for Rutgers already. I will be a 21 yr/old graduate student living in the dorms with a meal plan. How pathetic. I guess four years delayed from undergrad has caught up to me.
Emily and I are under
stressful times right now, not internally but externally mainly because
of our hectic schedules. BTW, I saw tryouts for cheer yesterday.
*smile* the girls are cool.
Another random thing: Congratulations to SIGMA NU for winning Sonfest 2005 performing Chicago!
It is midterm galore: 4 in the next 3 weeks!
May 14: UROP research symposium
May 20-21: MUN HS conference
Memorial Weekend: Norcal with parents and Emily
June 3-4: Sigma Nu White Rose Formal
June 12-14: Hawaii Conference (tentatively) & Finals that week as well
June 18: graduation
August 1st: Law school (tentatively)
I want to party like a Rockstar with my little bro.

| I owe an apology to myself and others for not updating in long time. Many have asked what has been going on in my life and to answer that question, I would have to write endless complaints to what life does not live up to my expectation. I am not going to do that; instead, I will highlight things that I deemed important and effected my life within the couple months. From now on, I am going to try to reflect on my life as often as I can on my little space on the internet.
First and foremost, I cannot even measure the extent in how much I appreciate and love Emily. She is extremely important to me and dear to my heart. I can only image that our relationship will flourish as time goes on. During our spring break 2005, we both went to the east coast (NY, NJ, Marlyand, and DC) and that was my first vacation since who knows when. She planned everything out and it was fun!
Law school is another nightmare that I go to sleep to each night. Rutgers Law School is where I will most likely be attending. However, I still have 6 more schools pending with 4 waitlisted school including Wisconsin. A few weeks ago, I visited Wisconsin and I feel in love. Now I dream of Wisconsin and hope I can attend this coming fall.
School is school. School now is like what economists would call deadweight loss. I do not need school, yet I still have to obtain good grades. Last quarter I took Business Law, Leadership, and Law in the 21st Century. This quarter, a little more variety including: Memory, Info Mgmt, Quantitative Mgmt, and Game Theory. Graduation is on June 18th, 5pm.
I love my parents; they are the world to me. Ever since I have been at Irvine, they have given me their up most support and love for me. I hope I made them proud.
Randomness: I went to an American Idol taping. I hate LBC cops. 2 days in Vegas with my fraternity during spring break. Working at Banana Republic. I have a little bro – Richard Voung. 7 more weeks till graduation.
Life is well, why aren’t I satisfied? I’ll leave this for another day. | | |
