AP Adventures

More nonsense brought to you by Alex

2009-06-16T01:49:00.000-07:00

Okay, so I have just realized blogging is FUN. Oh man, what if I become some weirdo emo blogger that blogs 32564523764 times a night and talks about their life to pedobears over the internet!? o____o

Anyways, I forgot to put in my last blog a link to my amateur photography album on Photobucket. So I decided to make a totally new post instead of editing it. I'll put it after this nifty little paragraph. Sound good? Yeah, whoever reads this should check it out. Which is like nobody. Shut up, miss pessimist. <-- Props to spellcheck cause I cant spell, woo!

So this is my first blog I've made in our APblog. Pretty sad, yeah. This is also my first blog, I guess. Happy Patricia? Im FINALLY posting a blog on this darn thing. :)

So anyways, summer vacation has started and now I can stay up as late as I want. What have I been doing on these late nights, you may ask? I've been pressing play on my "Asdfghjkl;" playlist on iTunes and attempting to get in touch with my poetic side... yet again. I say "yet again" because I used to be pretty into poetry- as amateur as I was and still am.

I came across one of my old poems earlier;

Alcohol

We turn to it in times of need

It cleans our cuts when we bleed

We turn to it to find truth;

the perfect weapon for a sleuth

Yeah, not much deep meaning there. I had some pretty good ones, I just cant seem to find them. But I will! Maybe they will provide inspiration for a newer and better poem.

Here's a taste of my current works;

Surreal Ideals

'Til now I had perceived something

nonexistent as a feeling still lingering.

Oh, how I've begged truth to sing

its soothing melody

that I believed would in turn elicit

a beautiful love.

So the canary sang

penetrating every melodious note

and awareness of my fault

flooded my abstract thoughts.

Perhaps my misconception

flourished from a surreal ideal.

An ideal that should soon be abandoned

in the furthermost shadows of my mind.

As you can probably tell, I've ditched the usual rhyme for free verse. I don't know about you, but I feel like I've improved greatly. Well, you haven't seen enough of my old or new writings to be able to judge so just take my word for it. ;]

I hope you've enjoyed my first blog- which happens to be pretty long. I apologize for that.

There's probably nobody that reads this nonsense anyways, what are you worried about Alex?

This is our SECOND AP Adventure.

This time, we wanted to dress up a bit more fashionably and wear make-up(GASP! PATRICIA WEARING MAKE-UP?!) and also take pictures of each other!

So here were the pictures! Patricia's mom took the pictures that had both of us in it, and Patricia took pictures of Alex and Alex took pictures of Patricia. (hope that wasn't too confusing)
Afterward, we ate PAAASTAAA

AP Adventure List

2009-04-12T18:24:00.000-07:00

Hi guys! Here's a short intro to us :D

6/16/09 Patty desires that Alex writes a tid bit in here so she shall. :)

She needs to correct a few things Patty has written anyways, teeheee.

Why is Alex writing in the third person? -.-

AP stands for Alex and Patricia

Alex Friedl is half Korean (HAHAH, THANKS PATTY ^.^) and half Caucasian, and attends Canyon High School, class of 2012. She spends her late nights watching korean dramas, writing poetry, listening to hardcore (just kidding) music, doodling, and editing her amateur photography cause her camera suckzz. Alex tries to play the piano but FAILS because she doesnt even know how to read notes. (Props to youtube) She desires to one day acquire a professional camera but knows thats never going to happen cause they're expensive as @$%#. Her dream job in the future is to become an accountant. * She would love to become a photographer but sometimes we all need to be a bit realistic, right?

Patricia Liu is Taiwanese (even though she is as dark as a filipino person) and also attends Canyon High School, class of 2012. Patricia is an artist and a photographer and loves to draw in her black sketchbook (AMAZING drawings- says Alex, teehee.) and taking pictures of Alex with her Canon Rebel XTi. She is influenced from her mother who is a photographer, artist, and craftsmaker. She also enjoys hip-hop dancing with her friends. She also PWNS at playing the piano and Alex is very very very jealous. Her dream job in the future is to become a graphic designer.

Now that you have a general idea of us, here's the list of events that we HAVE to finish:
1. ~~Go to a museum and bring our Canon's!~~2/22/09
2. Go to the lake in Irvine and write poems
3. Irvine spectrum; ~~URBANOUTFITTERS~~. 2/22/09
4. Wear glasses to school like cool kids! B]
5. ~~Dress up/camera whore day~~ 4/12/09
