Disney-fied Hamlet
Little crackhead idea of mine... enjoy, everyone! (DISCLAIMER-- I OWN NONE OF THE SONG LYRICS)
Scene opens on Hamlet, Ophelia, and Horatio.
(cue dramatic music and flashing neon lights)
Hamlet: (boom, boom, firepower) I'm gonna be a mighty king, so enemies beware!
Horatio: Well I've never seen a king of beasts with quite so little hair.
Hamlet: (ignoring Horatio) I'm gonna be the main event like no king was before! I'm brushing up on looking down, I'm working on my ROAR.
Horatio: Thus far a rather, uninspiring thing
Hamlet: Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Horatio: You've got a rather long way to go, young master, if you think-
Hamlet: (grins at Ophilia) No one saying "do this"!
Horatio: Now when I said that--
Ophelia: (distracting Horatio) No one saying "be there"!
Horatio: What I meant was--
Hamlet: No one saying "stop that"!
Horatio: What you don't realize--
Hamlet/Ophelia: (run away together screaming) No one saying "see here"!
Horatio: (in hot pursuit) NOW SEE HERE!
Hamlet: (riding into the sunset on an ostrich with Ophelia) Free to run around all day!
Horatio: Well that's definitely out--
Hamlet: Free to do it all my way!
Horatio: I think it's time that you and I arranged a heart-to-heart-- (goes splat on a hippo's rump)
Hamlet: Kings don't need advice from little hornbills for a start.
Horatio: (sulking on a floating log) If this is where the monarchy is headed, count me out! Out of service, out of Africa, I wouldn't hang about! (log falls down a waterfall) (echoing) This child is getting wildly out of wing!
Hamlet: (totally ignoring Horatio's plight) Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
(dancing animals appear from nowhere)
Hamlet: (with cheerleader routine) Everybody look left! Everybody look right! Everywhere you look I'm-- (cue random floodlight) in the spotlight!
Horatio: Not YET-- (squashed by a mob of Denmark-ians and red elephants)
Denmark: (eappearing from somewhere off-screen) Let every creature go for broke and sing, let's hear it in the herd and on the wing! It's gonna be King Hamlet (the younger)'s finest fling!
Hamlet: Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
(giraffes throw Hamlet and Ophelia into the air with their noses)
Denmark: (running madly to avoid being trampled by said giraffes) Oh, he just can't wait to be king!
Hamlet: (mad air guitar) Oh, I just can't wait...
Denmark: (giant mosh pit) Just can't wait...
TO BE KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!
Giraffes lose balance.
People scream.
Hamlet and Ophelia mysteriously disappear somewhere.
Horatio is stuck under a rhino rump.
Elisnor is in complete disarray.
Scene closes on general mayhem and seventeen ambulances.

Song of the Day
When you were in trouble
That crooked little smile could melt my heart of stone
I look at you, then I’ve turned around and you’ve almost grown
Sometimes you’re asleep I’ll whisper I love you at the door
As I walk away I hear you say, Daddy love you more
Beautiful baby from the outside in
Chase your dreams but always know the road that’ll lead you home again
...
Song of the Day
If I were in their skin
I’d treasure every instant
Out there strolling by Seine
Taste a morning out there like ordinary men
Who freely walk about there
Just one day and then, I swear I’ll be content with my share
Won’t resent, won’t despair, oh and then I won’t care,
I’ll have spent one day out there….
I am going through a Disney classics phase...
“To and…”
“Fro.”
“Fro?”
“Yes,...”

Asada, just give up. Tomorrow’s gold is Yuna’s.
And to clear misunderstandings caused by the pronunciation mistakes of reporters nationwide: HER name is pronounced YUH-nah, and my name is pronounced YOO-nah. There is a difference, as much as Julie and Julia in English.
precious moments
Euna: Mom, I need to finish my Art drawings since they're due tomorrow.
Mom: ..........
Euna: Just letting you know.
Mom: So if you know so much, why should I stress about your SAT scores?
Euna: What?
Mom: I guess my conventional approach just doesn't work, is that what you think? Don't you know that you have SATs and AP exams coming up?
Euna: (mumbles) Don't I know...
Mom: (doesn't hear) Fine, I just won't care anymore, do whatever you want.
Euna: ................................................................

i adore my technology teacher
I was having an okay day back at school after the monster snowstorm that left Baltimore buried for a week.
My dad forgot to tell us that school opened 1hr late because he only checked his email, not the school website. Result: Stuck in the car with my hyper siblings for an hour, parked at Whole Foods while my mom did grocery shopping. With a Starbucks skinny vanilla latte.
First period, Chinese...
my mother is contradictory
After dinner (curry with veggies served on white rice), I was talking with my dad in the family study room when my brother, Joshua, comes in.
Josh: Hey Dad, Mom says to come for dessert.
Dad (finishing an email): One second.
Josh: But Mom said to come!
Euna: What am I, chopped liver?
Josh: Mom specifically ordered me not to invite you.
Euna: Oh... wow.
Two minutes later.
Mom (calling from the kitchen): Euna, want dessert?
Euna: No.
Mom: What? It's pumpkin cake, I thought you loved pumpkin!
Josh: I told her that you ordered me not to invite her.
Mom: ........Euna, want dessert?
Euna: NO.
oh chinese...
Today I was finishing the Chinese homework I had put off doing this entire week, when I was suddenly unable to breathe.
According to my textbook, “Harry Potter”, properly pronounced in Chinese, should sound like “Hālì Bōtè”.
My mom had to bring me a glass of water.
abandon house!!
After coming home from church today, my family and I set out to solve a problem which has been plaguing us ever since all this wonderful snow started to melt.
Our house is leaking. On every single floor. I usually don’t like talking about it much, but there’s no denying our house is pretty big. There’s a smell of damp wood as you walk in the door, leaks everywhere, and my...

AMAZING NEWS!!!
YEEEAH, IT HAS FINALLY HAPPENED!!
I’ve finally gotten a new laptop (Dell Studio 16, with the 64-bit i5 processor and over 400GB of memory, ZOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) after six years with my old one.
My dad decided it was time for a new one, partially because my dear old laptop decided that you really can’t teach an old dog new tricks, and has been committing slow suicide ever since I...
good week
“2/10/2010 Because of the major winter storm, Bryn Mawr School will remain closed on Thursday, February 11th and Friday, February 12th.”
School has been canceled this entire week because of this storm raging outside right now.
If only I could stop my teachers from emailing the homework….

Watchsince this is a live video it’ll probably go down at some point… but just being able to see this miracle of life touched me.

for shame!
jjoongie:
Elementary grammatical errors are slipping past me. Maybe it helps that a good number of years have passed should be “maybe it helps that a good number of years has passed.”
My former grammar Nazi instructor would have all rights to demand my head on a silver platter. Forsooth!
Perhaps you should have gone to the Bryn Mawr School for Girls, like I have done for the past 11 years. ...

I’ve basically spent the entire afternoon playing with the html in my theme, so now there’s a few improvements I’m quite happy about.

random anecdotes of today
Today, I discovered how useful desktop gadgets (I use Windows 7) can actually be. After playing with notes, calendars, iTunes controls, and Pandora, it was the Pesoguin digital clock that convinced me.
For all of his life, my little brother has been my elbow rest. But today, we both realized the top of his head is the same height as my nose. We are currently trying to figure out a compromise...

who would've thought...?
An interesting conversation with my mom left me with a story I am still confused about.
During his residency, my dad had to choose a specialization. He was debating between neurology, his passion but one of the most difficult fields with no guarantee of success, and cardiology, the more straightforward and secure path. Either way he wanted to be a surgeon, but he wasn’t sure which one...

preface
I’ve just started reading C.S.Lewis’s “Mere Christianity”. What I can see while I read, purely as 17 year old Euna Park, will go here.
Though my parents raised all of us kids to be Christian and take us to church every Sunday possible, I have only recently decided realized that anything I claimed as my faith was only repetitive sermons and lectures from my parents. There...
