this is effin retarded

http://www.cyberpresse.ca/international/etats-unis/201002/28/01-4256077-lavortement-un-complot-contre-les-noirs.php?utm_categorieinterne=trafficdrivers&utm_contenuinterne=cyberpresse_aujourdhui-sur-cyberpresse_267_accueil_ECRAN1POS1


je ne suis même pas d'humeur à commenter là-dessus.
il me semble que la première cause de l'avortement, c'est les grossesses non désirées...si c'est plus fréquent chez un groupe ethnique et qu'elles ne veulent pas le garder, c'est logique que le taux d'avortement soit + élevé chez ces dernières.
mais faire un lien entre l'esclavage et l'avortement, et dire que c'est un complot envers le peuple noir..........

i remember that I once wrote a post on xanga, on the topic of abortion, and some freak left me a one page comment, with hateful threats and references to the bible..and it wasn't too pretty.  I try to fill my blog with mostly pictures, videos and entertaining material, but from time to time, I will bitch about politics and stupidities of society in general.  It's easy to label someone as a sexist, or racist, or homophobic, but these are just labels, try to come up with arguments and facts, and we can discuss about it. 
So bear with me, and if you don't agree with my opinions, leave me a comment & I'll glady brainwash you haha

but please, no references to the Bible. You wouldn't put that in your bibliography for school, so it doesn't work with me neither.

TEAM CANADA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Although I was following the game through the radio (thats right, i dont watch tv)   I FELT THE INTENSITY MAN!!!!

PROUD TO BE CANADIAN TONIGHT!!!

we did, after all, invent hockey ;)
i thought curling was invented by Canadians, when it fact it already existed in Scotland in the 16th century.

finally, "spring" break.  I'm working all week, but its ok, because I need the money. Maybe I'll go ski, I should, pas fait de sport de tout l'hiver.

Reminiscing...Picture spam!

So happy tonight, not because I got raped by 3 exams in a row, but I have found more forgotten pictures!! 

la fontaine de Bartholdi à Lyon in 1996, I went to see it again last year, it lost its magic... maybe cuz it was being renovated, or cuz of the subway behind it.  its just not the same anymore.

Henri & Christiane... they had a little black cat called Minette, I never understood what they said, but they were really kind to me!
everyone had playmobil hair at some point in their life!

 doesnt she look like a doll herself?

back then we still had snow in Nantong!

I'm ballin'!!  is this a truck? a limousine??

my favorite apple sweater!!!  the softest sweater of all!!
apple sweater + skirt + purple leggings .....



I'm so happy I found this picture. It was taken on the boat on our way to Shanghai. It's always warm in Grandma's arms.   Love to all the grandmas in the world!

How to recognize a HEC douche from afar

Here's the douchebag uniform in my university.
yes I made a collage, because I know you are all very visual.


the obligatory Canada Goose, it also comes in beige, red, white , but you can't go wrong with black!
throw in a low v neck, you can tell its low enough when your chesthair sticks out.
(i couldnt find one, but for the sake of this picture a polo will do, its Abercrombie&douche anyway. )
then put on some tight jeans, low rise, but not too tight!! you still need space to put your iphone!

complete your look with the aviators and longchamp bag, and ta-da!

in HEC, it's all about being unique  :)

while we're on the subject of promiscuity...

I read in the news that a Taiwanese music student in Paris came up with the idea of kissing 100 strangers in the city and take pictures of it.  way to turn promiscuity into "art" haha.   I think Jasmin could beat it, in Bordeaux, you can do it! Just don't eat kebab with onions beforehand.   


I suppose enrique inglesias lookalikes don't have any mouth disease.

I think she has collected 54 kisses so far, so beware if you are in the area, you might be on the next picture ;)

Pathetic.

What the heck is wrong with the American society, Tiger doesn't owe the public an apology, nobody beside his family is affected by his affairs, and what he does in his spare time is none of our business.  It was the media who created this perfect image of him anyway, and the same media who blew this whole thing out of proportion, soooo hypocrite...only in America siiiigh.

dude, you mastered golf and women... two things that most men in the world dream about mastering.  but I'm digressing.


you should have just ripped that script in half and say f you to the public, and settle the rest with your family.

ps:  during study breaks, I send job applications ;)  just applied for Société Générale Marketing & Strategy Analysis intern position, please please make me happy...All this lack of response is causing serious damage to my "professional self-esteem" :(     Even housekeeping positions ask for 5 years of experience.      

I'm downloading a set of 800 songs from the 80s. one day I will write a post dedicated to this epic decade, about leggings over the tight, big mullets, high rise blue jeans, cheesy but oh-so-enjoyable power ballads. 

Je vous laisse sur un clip super RINGARD/quétaine/  the 80s fashion was really ugly, yet so awesome(am I the only one who thinks so?)  and props to Lionel for making stalking look cool!

rôles inversés

Pour commencer, bonjour à mon nouveau lecteur qui-ne-laissera-jamais-de-commentaire, Alex! tu remarqueras qu'en 4 ans, on n'a jamais pris de photo ensemble, il faut se rattraper :P

Trop de révision en finance réduit le cerveau en bouillie. sauf que j'ai même pas encore commencé à réviser que déjà je sens mes forces me quitter. 

Anyway, for some reason I'm obsessed with Gainsbourg's songs these days. The guy was a genius.    If you are stressed out, watch this video, sliiiiightly mildly erotic... Alain Chamfort and the gorgeous Mylene Jampanoi's version of Decadanse.

La Décadanse

Jasmin, take notes, if you happen to be in the staircase with a cute Bordelais, this is what you do and say!

daily questions

Why am I in business?
Why am I studying finance when I know my lack of interest in math?

Why didn't I choose architecture, or graphic design ? 
or just continue in science  ?  tous les gens que je connais qui sont présentement en science adore ça!!!  All the rest switched to commerce, more precisely accounting.  smart choice, you won't have trouble finding a job.
Why didn't I go into law ? I had the grades for it. Peut-être parce que j'ai tjs eu l'impression qu'étudier pendant des années pour crosser les gens et prostituer notre âme n'en valaient pas la peine.  mais c'est complètement faux de penser comme ça, on peut également crosser les gens en finance, en compta, en marketing encore plus même.  Il faut juste faire ses choix.   Étudier en droit et s'en servir pour aider les gens, ça aurait été un bon choix.   Mais si j'avais pas fait l'école de commerce, je n'aurai jamais pensé à faire un stage à natixis, et j'aurai jamais rencontré ma lavette. et rien que pour ça, je n'ai aucun regret. 
j'aurai voulu étudier en politique aussi. vous imaginez, une petite chinoise étudier en politique canadienne muahaha.

so, so , sooo many possibilities.  sigh.

BEIJING HIRE ME !!!!! BEGGING FOR AN INTERNSHIP!!!

l'amour physique est sans issue


1 am ...
please teammates, spare me from another nuit blanche, just send your parts dammit!!!

oldies

Une des choses que j'aime le plus au monde, c'est de trouver des vieilles photos, même si c'est des souvenirs qui ne m'appartiennent pas!

C'est fou comme je ressemble à ma mère, mais en plus masculin et carré lol
Ah c'est triste voir les parents vieillir !

 



my dad in red and my uncle from texas.  why does my dad look like jay chou?!

I loved that toy puppy so much...I wonder where it is now :(

ray bans for the win haha
Why didn't they ever show me these pics?  I'm going to scan all of them to show my kids one day !

tic tac tic tac


Sleepless....
Aucune explication possible, je suis complètement crevée....ou alors il doit se cacher un pois sous mon matelas.
only 2hours left until my alarm goes off, so might as well just stay awake right?

I swear youtube was invented for insomniac vampires like me!
listening to Sade's new album... her songs are just perfect.... music for the soul. it says so much feelings, without saying much.    I feel the same when I listen to Bjork, it takes me to another world, je flotte.   It sends shivers down my spine and ..my mind breaks free, its like mental freedom.
Ok I'm going to stop here before you think I'm high on weed.



this song is like a hug after the longest day of work.

Joga.
It's so beautiful, I'm on the verge of tears haha 

you don't have to speak - i feel

....you're kidding me!

Mademoiselle Gall!!!  Pauvre fille! Mais il faut vraiment être innocent pour ne pas se rendre compte du sens des paroles...

Lorsque le sucre d'orge

Parfumé à l'anis

Coule dans la gorge d'Annie,

Elle est au paradis.

.......................oh well,  it's really catchy! Gotta love the 60s :)

Top Romantic Movies, from a goose's point of view

Dearest Jasmin,
I RECEIVED YOUR LOVE LETTER TODAY!!! Oh how it made me happy, after a long long day at school. Thank you for thinking of me, (as always), I will keep it by my bed and read it before I go to sleep every night. Knowing how you trust my taste in movies(alright ill pay u back 6euros for watching 2012 &  u give me back ur trust), I've listed my favorite romantic movies that will (or did?), most definitely, move and shatter your little heart of stone. I hope you find a charming boy in bordeaux soon with whom you can watch these, in the comfort of Alcatraz.

no one is allowed to disagree with this list,or question my taste. well no one comments anyways haha

" Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind "


I don't even know where to begin, it's basically Jim Carey undergoing a procedure of memory-erasing after a bad breakup but during the operation, he tries to protect the little bits left of what he and Kate once had from being erased.  Actually, this movie is best when you watch it alone, with a whole tub of ice cream.

 
" Cinema Paradiso "

now that I think of it, it could possibly be my favorite movie of all time.  I watched it for the first time in english class at Marianopolis, I was luckily sitting in the last row, because I cried until I ran out of breath.  And the movie is far from being sad, it kind of restored my faith in humanity...  Best acting, scenario, soundtrack, ever ever ever.

wow I had to stop 10 minutes because just listening to the love theme made me cry again.


I shouldnt have brought up this movie, now I can't think of anything else better than this..... It makes the rest of the movies look like crap.

If you cried at the end of The Notebook, or at the beginning of Up, you're going to become blind after this one!!  talking about the notebook, my favorite scene is when they fight at the end, and the dialogue goes like:


Allie: You arrogant son of a B****


Noah: Would you just stay with me?


Allie: Stay with you? What for? Look at us, we're already fightin'


Noah: Well that's what we do, we fight... You tell me when I am being an arrogant son of a B**** and I tell you when you are a pain in the ass. Which you are, 99% of the time. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. You have like a 2 second rebound rate, then you're back doing the next pain-in-the-ass thing.



um  and I so fail at making a list.   Wait I think Wall-E could make it to the list.  and Leon the Professional.  Gone with the Wind. Forrest Gump.  the Butterfly Effect?  La vita e bella.  Cyrano de Bergerac. My Sassy Girl.                   the Lake House.(alright, im biased cuz of Keanu)

perfection...

Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.

Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end

waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

Valentines Post

I read my horoscope today (believe me its rare =_=) and it was a special Valentines astrology.  It said something like..... Scorpios are mysterious and sexy, this year, offer something special to your other half, give him the gift of trust and reveal yourself to him. Write all your passwords on a paper and give it to him during an intimate moment.       --- who's the retard who wrote this ?!!

There are so many alternatives to this...

You could for example shoot a pole dancing video for your sweetheart, if you're too broke to pay for a studio you could go to my school's beautiful cafeteria...it has 4 hidden poles, you cant see them in the pictures...



If you happen to be in Shanghai, you could go up the 87th floor of Jin Mao tower..for free! Have a pic nic in the refuge room, take the stairs, run around the corridors of Grand Hyatt, make a wish and drop a coin into the atrium:
just kiddin! its like 40 floors, you could cut someone's head in two. Grad your coin, get a coffee in Sky Lounge, and enjoy the view :)



And if you're on a serious relationship with a future doctor like Yang, you should consider getting her the sweetest of rings, the Ring Pop! yum yum

Knowing that Yang has to do many TRs at the hospital, you certainly don't want to see her lose a 10k ring in some patient's butt, so I suggest you getting her the candy ring.

But if you want to get an insight of Yang's expensive taste, here's a ring she picked from Tiffany and showed me one day... My dear, it's nice, but you'd eventually have to explain to your kids why you couln't afford to send them to school.



Today, I was offered a position as a school crossing guard. I have a $200,000 degree in Economics from a top 20 University and was offered a position to hold a stop sign and wear a reflective vest. I was tempted to accept. FML

 saddest & most discouraging comments ever.

ex: "I have an education which has left me 60k in debt. Now, I am working for 12.50 and hour with no benefits..but hey at least I am working. I actually applied at Mcdonalds and I have a masters!"

"Take the damn job, you self-entitled bastard.
Thousands of unemployed people would KILL for a JOB, ANY JOB. "  T___T
 
"If you knew anything about recruiting, you know that majors don't matter at all. They're nothing. You do what you want in college because you like it. You gain various skills pertaining to it and then for the summer you intern at places you want to work at. All the recruiters look at is your work experience and extracurriculars. Majors aren't shit. And seriously, do you guys even know what it means to go a top 20 school? We worked our asses off in high school to get here and I'm sorry but hard work and brains definitely entitles us to a better job. That is the whole purpose of going to a good school."
 
Heads up, graduate students!! Gotta stay positive and patient!

Jay Chou's 你听得到 featuring Jasmin

Tonight, its Jay Chou night!!  Yes, kickin it oldschool style, all the way back to 2003, when I had a huge, huge crush on Jay.  I bought his album Ye Hui Mei during the summer and listened to it a million times... I liked ALL of the tracks on that album, but one in particular, 你听得到.  It wasn't Jay's best composition, but the music video really grabbed my attention and I thought to myself that I would find out where that place is, if such a fairytale-like city really existed... I would go there before I die, or just die on the spot stunned by the beauty of it all.

Dreams do come true !! (twice, thank you to WizzAir!)


So, in this story you see "Jasmin" having a fight with her boyfriend, because she is whiny and unsecure and jealous and he's just sick of it. Then this girl with a STAR (its not a mole!!) on her cheek appears, and introduces herself as the sms messenger. She exists only in the virtual world...   I even bought the novel about the story haha it's in chinese, with a lot of pictures, and it describes the city quite in detail.

So, dear Jasmin, I wish you tons of fun in Prague!



我舍不得离开。。。
