Ash Catsup, duh

Yesterday, my mom convinced me to go clothes shopping with her. It took some effort, because I was tired and I didn't feel like going anyway, and I haven't shopped for clothes with my mom in a long time. I'm too old! Ok, not. Well, it was good to go with my mom, because she talked me out of not spending a lot of money on things. She basically forced me to spend a billion dollars on everything. I bought new sneaks, some more blank t-shirts for understuffs, couple of those outershirty thingies, some khakis, jeans, shorts, and a jacket. Kono would be very proud of me. That night, I went to a persian shindig. I was tired, and didn't dance, because I didn't feel like it. We got there at about 10.30 pm, and got home by about 3 am. While there, I just chilled with Matt, had some pretty good sushi, fell asleep in a little boy's (my dad's cousin's son) bed with Matt, fell asleep in a swing benchy thing with Matt, and that was that. That sounds inappropriate. :)

Today, I went on over to Ivy's house, for we wanted some beaching fun with the Chang Gang. Poppa Chang didn't come. :/ But it was an adventure, and we went in the water, faced the waves, or she only did sometimes, and jumped and had hills and such. Then us kiddies (Justin, Iris, Ivy, and myself) started digging holes and building canals and mountails with tunnels and it was way too much fun. <3 shovel and pail <3. Rinse, dry, change. Off to the pier. Veggie burger (narn will enjoy that) followed by ice cream, which I'm still horrible at eating. She's such a meanie head! We walked around, did one of those photo sticker booth things (hottt), paid 50 cents to ride one of those kiddy ride dog thingies, and promptly got kicked off because our total weight was more than 70 lbs. Car ride, nap almost, not quite. Sitting on the couch, nothinging. Really a rather complete day. Gahhhhhhhhhhh she's so hott. Feh feh feh feh feh feh feh feh feh feh.

There's more to say, but for another day.


001. I don't think I wore jeans in middle school. Apparently I wore them a lot in elementary school, and then in high school, but I despised them during those three years.
002. I spoke Farsi fluently until about the age of six. Then I started school, and started speaking English, and it's been mostly downhill from there.
003. It turns out I have a pretty big butt. I used to be far more self-conscious about it, but I kinda like it now.
004. I hate it when people think they're too "good" or "smart" or "important" to associate with others.
005. I don't hate people, but I do hate some ideals and stuff like that.
006. On the other hand, there are many people that I love, and I do so dearly.
007. My favorite food is bread. This makes Passover probably the hardest eight days of each year.
008. I can think of four times I've cried in the past half year. I don't think there's anything wrong with crying.
009. I wasn't allowed to play trumpet in the fourth grade because my parents were convinced it would make me impotent. I started playing in the fifth grade. I guess they realized that was ridiculous.
010. My mom asked me on Saturday if Ivy was my "first love," and I didn't answer her. The answer to that question was yes.
011. The part(s?) of my body that I am most uncomfortable with are my feet. They're just frickin' weird.
012. I've never broken any bones, but I've gotten stitches twice: once on my right arm, and the other time on my tongue.
013. The only annoying thing about mack is that I can't complain about not getting mack anymore.
014. I am horrible at keeping in touch with old friends, unless they make it a point to keep in touch with me. I'd like to change that about me.
015. I'm actually not that hairy, especially when compared to most Persians. Especially in terms of chest hair.
016. I think I'm the only male in the world who can truthfully say he was rearended by Narain Kumar. I'm proud of that fact.
017. I really like the idea of money. I like to invest it, and I like to make money off money. This seems rather stereotypical. I must be racist.
018. For a while, I saved all of the voicemail messages that Ivy left me. Sadly, they were mysteriously erased some time ago.
019. I considered myself shy until some point during 10th grade.
020. I've slept in a bed with each member of MFF for at least one night.
021. Contrary to the above, I'm really not that easy.

025. I didn't learn to swim until I was eight.
026. I weigh more than double what I used to weigh in fifth grade.
027. I won my first grade spelling bee with the word "business." The other girl got it wrong, and then I got it right.
028. Twenty-seven is my favorite number.
029. I don't like writing by hand because I think faster than I write. This is not as true when it comes to typing.
030. I lie infrequently, but I still lie. I don't lie when asked direct questions.
031. I don't know what I want to do when I grow up.
032. My bed is pretty small. My feet sometimes hand off the end.

034. Arabic music invariably sounds good to me.
035. I used to like cows quite a bit from 5th to 8th grade.

038. I played through the games Pokemon Blue and Pokemon Gold.
039. On my 8th birthday, my mom wrote "Nate the Great is Eight" on my cake.
040. I made approximately $71 from AllAdvantage, a program that paid you for simply surfing the internet with an adbar, back in the day.
041. "Speaker for the Dead" by Orson Scott Card was my favorite book for many years.
042. I think women are better than men.

045. I kiss my parents every time I say hi or bye to them.

048. My favorite drink is water. I haven't had any soda for about one year.
049. My favorite pair of pants has a large hole in the crotch and another in the right butt area. You've seen me wear it.
050. My first AOL (eew) screenname was "turcow," since my brother liked turtles and I liked cows.
051. My favorite places to think are in bed before I fall asleep, and in the bath. Baths are cool.
052. I don't believe I'm allergic to anything, but then again, I haven't tried many things.
053. There were probably about 300 people at my barmitzvah.
054. I'm probably the only person that liked Ceremony more than The Great Gatsby. Then again, I'm the only one that actually read Ceremony. :)
055. Once in a while, I'll look at people, and see what they really look like. It's weird.
056. I really like chocolate, but most other candy doesn't appeal to me at all.
057. Sometimes, when eating specific foods, I eat too fast and choke on what I'm eating. I proceed to not be able to breathe.
058. My favorite persian dish is still khoreshte ghormesabzi, but it has to be made right.
059. Aside from Ni Hao Chicas, I can say "I like ___" and "I love you" in one of the chineses (I always forget which).
060. The first three years of Marching Band were important for my development as a person.
061. One time, when I was three, my mom accidentally left me in the elevator, and I got out on a different floor. I was scared.
062. I got a nasty infection on my toe in 8th grade that required cutting off the entire toenail. Pain ensued when the toe started healing, considering my flesh was fusing with the bandage.
063. I've read every article on Maddox's website, although I don't find him very funny anymore.
064. My internet "identity" is NatNit. I came up with this name while sitting on a toilet.
065. I used to be an subscriber/avid reader of the magazine Nintendo Power, and I entered all the contests. I never won.
066. I played a lot of basketball as a young'un, and actually had a pretty nice jumpshot back in the day. Then again, I was like ten or something.
067. My fastest mile time in eighth grade was 8:57. Running is pretty boring.
068. In fifth grade, I remember we had this "butt slapping game," and only guys played. In hindsight, that was pretty gay.
069. It was also against the rules to "run" in the yard. That seemed like a crappy rule, so we played tag and got in trouble often.
070. I washed my car twice in 2005. I used soap one of those times.
071. My brain jumps from one topic to another really quickly, and draws weird connections. I think that's pretty nifty.
072. Apparently, when I had to poop when I was like two, I'd hide under the dining room table and give my diapers a filling.
073. I like my middle name, but I think my last name is unwieldy. I don't think I look like a "Nathan" either.
074. I was really really afraid of rollercoasters until about 11th grade. That was lame of me, because they're awesome.
075. "Your mom" is actually a surprisingly effective comeback. Giggle.
076. I giggle at very inappropriate times, i.e. when I'm supposed to be quiet. Actually, I can control it now, but most of the time, I don't want to.
078. I feel ill when having eggs with a glass of milk. I have to wait in between.
079. I'm decent at skiing and snowboarding, but horrible at rollerblading or skateboarding.
080. At any given time, Andrew He knows what I'm thinking.
081. There are many people for whom words are not enough.
082. I like to eat apples whole, including core, stem, and seeds. While on the topic, I like soup in bread bowls.
083. I completely cleaned out and reorganized my closet today. There must be something wrong with me.
084. I prefer chocolate cupcakes to vanilla cupcakes. Neither are the best kind though.
085. I know the decimal representation of any proper fraction with a whole number denominator up to, and including, twelve.
086. I practice squaring two digit numbers in my head when I think my mental math is going to crap.

088. I always forget the difference between empathy and sympathy.
089. I really really enjoy saying the word "mulch."
090. I don't own very many books. I usually borrow books from the library or friends if I want to read something.
091. When I first learned the word "nepotism," I was surprised it existed because it seems like such a specific word.
092. I had the highest grade in my LAVC Spanish class. This was awesome because Madame Vincent was in said class. Pwnd.
093. I'm more reluctant to use the word "stupid" than the word "fuck."

095. The notions of friendship and loyalty are incredibly important to me.
096. This "No Pants Allowed" theme on my livejournal seems to have gotten me into quite a bit of trouble.
097. I really love the word mack when it is used properly, and I can't wait for September 29th.
098. The answer to the universe is 42, obviously. The question is: How many elephants does Amit have in his house?
099. I can easily touch my toes, but I can do that weird make your hands touch behind your back think that looks like an 'S'.
100. I like to keep a lot of sentimental things in the headresty thing of my bed. I can't explain what it is.


Yayz done done done!
