We probably won't be going to Union Square tomorrow. That sucks. I have been waiting this whole week to go there. It was going to be my relax day, I've been working on my report and getting quite a lot done, but I need a break. I got all of my work off of my sister's computer and the computer guys are going to install powerpoint on my computer tomorrow...hopefully.
On a happier note. I've found a movie I wanna see, "A Walk To Remember" it's based on a book of the same title, but I want to see the movie then read the book. Everyone says the book is always better than the movie, but I wanna be different. LOL I've seen the movie trailers online and it looks cheesy (A.K.A. REALLY REALLY good) in my eyes. But I'll have to wait until Jan. 25..hopefully but those dates are almost always pushed back...
P.S. new song I like....go here to see

Ah, how short lived my stress free life was. First of all, I learned that my computer doesn't have powerpoint which I need for my HUGE presentation on Jan. 15. yeah yeah yeah...it's awhile a way, but we're suppose to have them ready by th seventh and I was hoping to have it done by then so that if there were any other important things I needed to fix I could do it then. SECOND My dad and 2 other guys came over to try and network 3 computer's together. no go. They came at 5 and left at about 9:30. and I just found out that my sister's computer which did have powerpoint is not working any more. I am SO stressed at the moment. stress free...how sweet it was. I'm having trouble remembering how to breath. inhale...then what?

Christmas. For the first time in a long time, today felt like Christmas. But we'll get to that later. Well yesterday I went to Auntie Kathy's house and helped Angela make cookies. I've figured out I don't like baking in other people's kitchens. So after that was all done, we came back to my house and we had hot pot for dinner. Not the traditional dinner but still yummy. Then we opened presents.

Auntie Kathy & Uncle David: Nice REAL jewelry
Auntie Pam & Uncle Wilbur & Erin: Nsync backpack & Spongebob Gift card to Target (and they said the new baby is going to be a boy!)
Auntie Karen & Uncle Gary and Scott, Chris, and Ryan: WAY COOL Dolphin Mobile, I love dolphins and A gift card to the Wherehouse
Angela: 2 Tix to the musical "Mama Mía" and a ID wallet purse thingie
Auntie Diane: Dolphin ornament beautiful
Tiffany: Mike Wazouski lollypop holder and CD holder.
Uncle Wally: Christmas Money
Andy & Gina: Gift certificate to Barnes & Nobel
Grandma and Grandpa: Christmas Money
Jamie: Spongebob pillow (WHICH I LOVE as much crap I talk about her she's cool) and the NOW 8 CD

Mom and Dad: (Long list here we go) Pinky ring with diamonds, a 200 cd holder (I've been asking for it), also a spongebob gift card. And every year we get a little after Christmas gifts. I think that was what made it feel like Christmas, that little gift from santa which comes every year on the 26. Well Mom usually does this on Easter, but this year she also did it today, she gave us a little treasure hunt. Of course she made us run up and down the stairs, but it was SOOOOOOOOOOOO worth it. She gave me 2 beanie baby bears, one called America in honor of the victims of Sept. 11 and the other Classy, I'm not sure why...and she also gave me an NSync calender (it's an annual thing) and THE LANCE BOBBLE HEAD FROM BEST BUY! I can't believe she did that! *enter massive smile on my face now* I wasn't going to get it because it you had to make a $25 purchase and then it was $10 but that's my way cool Mom. :D And I'm psyched about going to the City on Saturday, Mom's going to take my sister and me shopping and then to go see Monsters Inc. She hasn't seen it and we've haven't seen the outtakes. I'm ready for that. Plus I got a cell phone. I share it with my mom, but she only takes it on the weekends and I get it when I need it. :D

It doesn't feel like Christmas. No matter how many Christmas songs I listen to, no matter how many mall I see the decorations at. It's not Christmas. I have a theory on why, it all relates back to teachers. Okay, in elementary school, every year we had a little play or preformance EVERY YEAR, and getting ready for that was a Christmas tradition which of course was broken in 5th grade because it was our last. Then in middle school, I usually always had something related to the holidays or fun nearing our vacation. But this year nothing. All I got were 3 tests and P.E. All there was, was a goodbye be safe see you in 2 weeks. Last year we didn't have a tree because we were going to HK and mom said it wasn't worth the trouble. That was like the first year ever we didn't have a tree, except when we were staying at my aunts house, but there was a tree there. I just feels not right. We used to go to Tahoe every Christmas, to see the snow but that stopped a long time ago. too long. We used to put up lights on the outside of our house and it was a whole tradition, my sister and I would put them in a special order while my uncle and my dad went on the ladder to put them up, ours were the only blinking lights. We stopped doing that after we moved 2 years ago. It's suppose to be Christmas eve fun, laughter, peace and happiness goodwill to men, but it's not. I feel kind of depressed, I just can't get into the spirit.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE!!!WHOO HOO I'm so glad, there's only one more day until the day. This year mom and i are going to Union Square, last year we went to Hong Kong and didn't have much time to go anywhere around here before christmas. So i'm glad about that. My fingernails are this outrageous purple color called frozen grape it's deep purple color, Jamie got it for me for being late to pick me up one day, random acts of kindness can appear anywhere.

Dear Al,
Thanks for signing the buuk!!!!! #2...all I have to say about that is "Life sucks then ya die" Dude glad you brought up #18, just saw him today in fact...#2 was making werid faces at him in the window...I wonder what his hair is like, he NEVER takes off that blue and black beanie! (#18) they wanted to borrow our T.V. him another guy came to get it. Man I still think he has a large shnozz... yes I do play DDR! Itz fuuuuun! People in areobics still have to take the mile, ask Chrissy, she did it the same day we did. MUAHAHAHAH you will never escape it's wrath!

I am done. Done with my tests done with everything. History test, mega hard. Spanish test, easy peasy. Math, somewhere in between. Today in spanish after we were all done with our tests, our teacher decided to pop some popcorn for us. So she puts it in the mircowave and sets it for 5 mins. like the package says, but forgets to turn it off when the popping stops. And only remembers when someone in our class yells "SMOKE!" because at this point in time, the microwave is smoking because of the scortched popcorn! When she opened the door, POOF smoke ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL over the place, we opened all the windows and turned on the fan but there was some heavy smokeage. All this time, the smoke alarm never went off, makes ya wonder exactly how MUCH smoke there needs to be in order for it to work...hm
May write later, but for now I AM. TIRED.!

Teachers suck. Friday is my last day of school for 2 weeks. Friday I have 3 tests. One in history. One in Spanish. One in Math. grr. Yesterday my math teacher is like we will have our test on thursday. Today he's like we will have our test on Friday. My brain will be waisted! History tests are hard because there are like 15 vocabulary or identify what happened, 15 are short answer (paragraphs) and 1-2 essay questions. Spanish is just hard for me in general. Math I'm just usually too damn tired to do well because it's after P.E. Oh ya, did my mile test today. 11:50 = D. now 20% of my grade is a D and the rest is probably a C+. I HATE P.E.
Class board, each class is suppose to have T-shirts they design and buy and all that junk. Usually they average from $8-$12. We started having meetings etc. in the first school week in September and we've been discussing what to put on them what color etc. since then. It takes most classes a couple of weeks to put the order in and get them back. I got my T-shirt tuesday. It's been over 3 MONTHS. What makes me even angrier is they are ugly. They are an ugly blue color, the pirate on the back look NASTY LOOKIN', there's a 0 on one side and a 4 on the other side, which seems like a good idea at first, but looks retarded when you put it on. And the worst part is they cost $17. I have to pay $17 for a nasty lookin' T-shirt, I don't think I've ever paid $17 for a shirt that I wanted! I was soooooo mad when I heard the price. I AM BROKE. I have just gone Christmas shopping for friends and family and that comes to a total of like $160 and then I gotta scrounge up almost 20 bucks. >:| This one has me seriously pissed me off. I am one NOT happy camper right now.

You know what sucks right now? P.E. and my P.E. teacher. I have my period and wed. I have to run a mile it's the final for the class. I also have to do at least 35 sit-ups in a minute (which I usually pass) one pull up (no pass) and this strech test (pass) I hate running I hate getting my period. I hate running WITH my period. I wish I could skip it all, but hey at least this is my last year of pe! WHOO HOO! last year of pe and last year of seeing somebody everyday for 90 mins. :( but hey maybe I'll meet a nicer cuter guy who'll like me too. HA! IN A PARALLEL UNIVERSE! IN MY DREAMS! But I'll never stop dreaming.

I went Christmas shopping today. I realized how much I am thankful that it comes but once a year. I hate Christmas shopping, or maybe it's just because it's with my sister. Either way, I'm glad it's over. I bought Chrissy spongebob stuff and I bought Robin a sparkly candle, Janice a pen set from Sanrio, and Tiffany a cookie cookbook. It took 3 hours for that. My feet hurt. This will be a long week, in a way I don't want it to end and in another way I want to speed right through it. I do NOT want to do the mile which I will have to do, and then #2 in my español class. But I want Christmas to be here and for everything to be alright. I know the only homework I will have is in history for my presentation. But that's a doozy in itself. Tomorrow I'm getting up early to take a shower so there might be an entry in the early morning.

My mom's going on a vacation for a week. :( That's gonna suck because I'm gonna find out how much I rely on her, and I rely a LOT! LoL But I'll deal and become a little more independent and it's only for a week.
Tomorrow I'm gonna go shopping for Janice, Chrissy, Robin and Tiffany's Christmas gifts...dude I am so stuck on ideas. I need a haircut seriously. I need to get a crackin' on my history presentation and fast. I was going to go to chrissy's house to play DDR, but then she wasn't home :( Uh not much I'll try to write after I get home from shopping tomorrow.

PEOPLE ARE BEING EXTREMELY STUPID IN MY HOUSE TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!! Let's see, first of all we just got the Rush Hour 2 DVD. I was going to pop some popcorn in the mirowave so I could have some while I was watching. Then my dad reminded me SOMEONE which happened to have been me, needed to take the shirts out of the dryer. THEN my lazy sister who had been sleeping since 3:30 this afternoon told me to put the shirts away. *mudders*LAZYASS!*mudders* grrrr so, all the while my popcorn's still popping and you're suppose to put it on for longer because you can't re-heat it. Everybody knows that you're suppose to watch the popcorn so that it does not burn. And I WOULD have had I not been upstairs hanging the shirts. SO I come down and my dad's like I think 4 minutes was too long but i stopped at 3:45. ARUGH I WANTED TO SCREAM OF COURSE IT'S TOO LONG WHICH IS WHY YOU STOP IT WHEN IT STOPS POPPING DOESN'T EVERYONE KNOW THAT?! APARENTLY EVERYONE EXCEPT FOR MY DAD AND MY SISTER! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I am so pissed off right now it's not funny.

Today was Qiao's birthday but first I'll just write a little about what happened on Saturday.

Saturday I volunteered at the Dunsmuir Mansion, it's this huge house and a LOT of land owned by it. We helped out making orniments with the kids. They decorated doilies and little tiles. It was alright...


Anyway today was a lot more fun. Qiao got a playstation from Kyle and Chrissy brought her Dance Revolution...uh mat thingie, so we could play. It took a little big to figure out how to plug everything in but we finally got it. Let's see, I was there, Chrissy, Janice, Maya, Caroline (who wasn't there for very long), Irene (her neighbor), Tim (a camp councler, MUY fun to pick on but more on that later.) and Vivian but she wasn't there for long either. So for most of the time we just played dance revolution and ate. Chrissy and I were cracking jokes a lot and it was very funny. Tim was the only guy there and it was so funny! We picked on him a lot but I he knew it was all in good fun he was laughing a lot too. He always said "Ladys first..." and all that junk I always called him a loser because no guy really means that. LoL and he did it again later in the day. ANYWAYS when we were eating cake, I had finished my piece and just happened to watch him eat his and he put like half the piece on his fork, and I thought he was only gonna bite a little into it, but instead he but the whole thing into his mouth. Once he did that, I like "OHMYGOD! you put the WHOLE piece in your mouth!" and I started to crack up! Man I was busting up laughing and so was Chrissy and Janice and of course Tim, his face was SO RED! thinking about it now, I should have taken pictures LoL, but he was sooo red, and looked like he was gonna bust, I thought he was gonna spew all over the place. We all tried our hardest to calm ourselves down so that he could swallow and NOT spew, bue once he finished I started to bust out laughing. Man, Chrissy and I were so mean, he was trying to be a gentleman earlier letting the ladys go first and then later he was going to pour himself a cup and I was like "OH so you just pour yourself a cup and don't offer to anyone else! I knew that gentleman thing was an act! LoL" (I didn't say it in a mean way I was just messin' with him.) So he's like offering it to everyone else and I'm like no thank you, and he went around offering the cola, and after everyone said either yes or no he started to pour his and I'm like "WAIT! I wanted some!" LoL and busted out lauging because he stopped in a hurry when I yelled WAIT! But today was major fun. WITH THE EXCEPTION of when Qiao's bunny's attacked me! The first time, I was holding it and it was all cool, but then it decided that it didn't want to be held anymore so it started to move and that thing has MAJOR claws! Part of my neck is all scratched up now, and then A SECOND TIME Qiao was holding it, and it freaked out again and she dropped it, ON ME!! So it sliced into my hands! These aren't just little scrapes, these are cuts! That thing is worse than Alex's demonic Rusty. But overall today was a 10 day!
P.S. That was Dec. 9, 2001

It is now 11:27PM and my hair is dry and frizzy. LoL ooh! Update on Ben! We were watching a movie today so #2 decided that he wanted to see. Whether it be the the movie or Alieen..or even Carl I don't know but he was there none the less. Durn it! And I was almost over that whole crush thing, until he sat by me again and started talking...dude I was THIS CLOSE! *Pinches finger together real close*. Man today was a stressfull day. On Thursday we had an interact meeting and Tiffany signed us up for an event on Saturday, or so she supposed. But actually she signed us up for Sunday. Bad. muy muy malo. ¿Porqué? Because I have to go to Qiao's B-day party on Sunday. This event is special and you have to sign up and actually go because people are expecting you. I called the pres. of the club. Not home. I called Tiff who called the V.P. no go. Until later tonight and she said "I guess you guys can go tomorrow...they probablly need more that day anyways." I'm going, if I'm not needed, then I'M GOIN' HOME! LoL soooo that's that. Man I'm still thinkin' about how just sitting next to him made a difference. How sad, I know. But true too true.
Oh ya, before I left home I re-did the bun in my hair and it stood really well without making my neck sore! And those words NEVER came outta my mouth! LoL Ashley said I looked like a ballerina...I'm hoping that's a complement... :D

It is now 6:37AM. I woke up at 5:50 AM just to take a shower, (I usually take them at night. I am a night person). My hair is in a bun. My head feels extremely unbalanced. I put it up normal and the bun sinks back and the skin on my face tightens. I put my head forward and my neck hurts. Probably by the time I will leave the house, the words "Aw, to hell with the bun" will come out of my mouth.

Life has been going at an okay pace so far... I we STIILL haven't changed seats in spanish, I need a change, but I'll also miss sitting next to Carl, I tell you the man is funnier than the word "yogurt"...okay maybe not as funny as yogurt, but pretty durn close!


The homework's lighting up a little bit, Yippy! I just had a test in spanish on wed. I don't think I did so well... :( Oh, well what can you do? Also today in spanish our teacher was out so we had a sub and we watched a movie on Frida Kahlo, the movie showed some of her more "graphic" paintings. That movie should have been rated R! There were some gross stuff.


We had an assembly today about being united and not making judgements etc... I don't know why the school waste's it money on things like that because it's not all that effective. That assembly is not going to change anyone's minds, they try to have "cool" music which I still didn't like and that makes it seem even more fake. It was stupid, it was talking about you should people a chance but it seemed all too fake. They had schools where everybody looked like a prep, some were different races, but they were all preps. Also they said not to stereotype people by what they look like, and then they show a white person being interviewed and then they play punk rock music, the show a black person being interviewed and they play rap music. Who's stereotyping now? They need to do something at a REAL school like here where people are DIFFERENT and not just interview the preps. Bascially a ghetto school, and then see what people say. But in the end it's really not a life changing thing just an hour of my life wasted.


My 'puter's being a butt-head or maybe it's the DSL modem. Either way grrrrr the dumb things keep on freezing up on me! and the modem doesn't work! It goes WWWWWAAAAAAAYYYY slow still and neopets won't load. grrrr >(

YIPPY! We finally got a DSL modem! Whoo hoo...I have no idea what that means, all I know is that FAST INTERNET ACCESS! heeeeeeey "Bring it around town BRING IT AROUND TOWN!" As spongebob would say! LoL lessee we didn't change seats yet, but so maybe he does acknowledge that I'm alive..hm...Doesn't matter any more any ways. I have to stay late after school tomorrow, Tiffany has to do some service hours for a club and I don't wanna bother robin. Gr...I really don't like staying after school but hey at least I get a ride home. I can't believe it's already Dec. 3. man time flys only when you want it slow down. Ah okay just wanted the world to know that I now can actually see web pages without it taking 50 hours to load! :D

Last night we put up our Chrismas tree! My aunt Diane and Uncle Wally were over and they help decorated it. In the beginning we had some "technical difficulties" but now is all fixed and we have a beatiful tree in our family room! It's waaaaaaaaay better this year because we have tree, last year we had no tree and it wasn't really Christmas. It was cool and we also watched Shrek for the 50th time last night LoL but it a good movie. "NO NOT THE GUMDROP BUTTONS!" "EAT ME!" Gotta love the gingerbread man! LoL
Man I just really hope we change seats in spanish soon...We should change tomorrow, but we also should have changed last monday. Hm...

Happy December everybody! I hope that what I'm feeling now is not a preview of what is to come this month.
