...SO that was the calm before the storm...

Yeah, so as the family Christmas went really well and quiet, wow. our friend's christmas went really well :D awesome. I guess I should start at the very beginning.

After Christmas I think I unofficially lived at Chrissy's house. I have been there everyday since Christmas. On that Sunday Dec. 26th, I went over to use some of her thread to finish off some of the ribbon fish for my friends :) and then just hung out. woah. the polyphonic spree...us at 11pm and Chrissy on cold medicine makes for one really...really interesting night....yeaaaaah...'nuff said about that one :)

December 27th Tiff and Janice had come back from Las Vegas and so we [Chrissy, Me, Tiffany and Janice] went shopping to finish off the rest of Chrismtas shopping. We went mainly to get Maria's gift, ooh that spa was all nice and in a fancy area, you had to like press a number code to get in and everything thing, it felt so "upper class" LoL :D We went shopping...for like ever, I found Janice pt. 2 gift and some soap on sale for me.
Gah it was pouring cats and dogs out there, so we had our umbrellas and braved the weather :D Tiffany got kinda tired after we got back so then I had my car at Chrissy's house anyways, Tiffany dropped us all off there. We had some..."fun" ;) at chrissy's house :D and some awesome chicken rice :D more polyphonic spree oi. oy to the vey.

December 28th Tuesday: Kinda chilled at home, cleaned some stuff up, it had been a couple of days since I had been home for a while, but yeah, basically chilled. Andy and Gina asked if we wanted to go to dinner, so that night Jamie and I went to this Coryian (Korean...spelled just...weird) Hot Pot place...it was all right, I came back smelling like fried food though...no really not bueno.

December 29th WEDNESDAY!!!!/December 30th TODAY: wow.
Okay so got up at 9 something, showered and stuff, got ready to go to Chrissy's at 10 I was running kind of late, but I eventually got there :D Me and my massive bag of presents. None of the guys except for Benny decided to show due to the "early" [11am] time call for the movie or other priorities...We waited for Maria initially, but she woke up late and decided not to go also, but I drove Janice, Chrissy and Elisa to Union City where we met up with Tiffany and Benny to go see Ocean's 12. It was pretty good, I'm not sure if I'd totally see it again, but it was good :)

After the movie we went to Pasta Pomodoro, I had some great ravioli :D service was kinda slow, but it usually is...the food was good though. :) we saw some friends too. After that we decided to go back to Elisa's house to pick some stuff up she forgot and the we went to pick up Justin at his apartment and then headed back to Chrissy's house where Tiffany, Benny, Kyle and Charlie had already met. We hung around a while for Maria...no one could get a hold of her for a while...and two hours later the Sexy arrives :D with her great beautiful haircut! :D This was at about 6pm and then we all rushed out to Castro Valley to go to bowling, :D I did alright, the girls took a bit longer seeing as how there were six of us so the guys played two games while we only played one I got a 97 I was quite satisfied with my score LoL I got a strike on my first try WHOOT :D

After bowling at like 8:15 or so, we went to Oakland for "SFO Pizza [formally UNO'S]" Gah there was MAD NASTY weather!! it was crazy and kinda scary, I didn't bring my rain jacket, I didn't think we'd be out too much ...but I was wrong, we were out enough..it was windy like mad too though so I'm not sure how much good an umbrella would have done anyhow.

After that we went back to Chrissy's house to open presents. WOW there were tons. It was awesome we decided to do it in "birthday style" where we passed out all of the presents and then we waited for each person to unwrap all of their gifts before going on to the next person. Much more orderly than having everyone ripping into the gifts at the same time. :D I got to go first :) Among my stuff I got a mug that says "<3 u mom" with a picture of my senior portrate on it! oi. from the buffness ....le sigh LoL I did have quite the laugh [as did my mom after I showed it to her too], I got a Kosher Bone from chrissy (which I also happen to see the same day that we all went to San Francisco after we split to do some shopping...LoL and I bought for janice), A STUFFED LLAMA!, a very pretty dolphin statuette :D, a transformers t-shirt (insert frown here :( LoL ) and chocolate's from benny. OOh also a clapper from Charlie I really want to see if it works LoL that'd be great if it did.

So we went around everybody :D (we started at like 9:30ish pm) and ended about 11pm which Elisa had to leave and go home :( The rest were very interested in mostly Benny's toys :D and video games that Phillip and Justin had brought to her house. After we wrangeled up everyone again, we decided to have our Cranium game, traditionally boys against girls. While the boys put up a very valiant effort and were ahead of the girls for quite a while, the girls did continue our winning streak and came out on top :D The wager was that the whoever lost would make breakfast for everyone. :) That was quite a long game and we ended around 1:30 something in the morning. Then Charlie and Kyle got these riddle/puzzle books from tiffany (i think) and then everyone got into solving these types of riddles wow we were stuck on that for quite a while...Slowly people started dozing off and splitting off, the guys kinda went to play the PS2 games, by 3am tiffany was sleeping, Chrissy was chatting on the computer and Justin and Janice were talking to each other so Maria and I went over to visit the rest of the guys and see what they were doing.

Maria was tired, but didn't wanna be by herself so she slept in the family room while they were playing video games. I was like UBER wired and so I kept on watching them play this X-Men game...it was like a "King of the Hill" type of game and whoever got this glowy thing and held on to it the longest without being killed by the others trying to take it would win. Kyle kicked butt at that game LoL Benny had a slow start but got real good also. Then they started playing Def Jam...something or another, it's a fighting game and stuff, I was kinda bored so I decided I wanted to try also (it seemed like a button mashing game, you just kinda hit random buttons and kick other people's butts LoL) I was doing alright I played Xzibit :D I beat Benny, Kyle and Charlie, Phillip beat me and so did Justin, but I was still happy LoL. Justin and Janice poked their heads in every once in a while...I eventually saw the time and then boom it had suddenly become like 5:45am...time goes by really fast. and then we had more fun playing the games, and no one else was going to sleep...as long as there was stuff to do (i.e. video games) I would be up....and then we just kept on playing and I watched the others play and stuff...then it was like 7:00AM...(we agreed the night before that the guy's breakfast has to be ready by 10:00am...and they still had to go and buy some stuff)...so that means they would have to start getting ready in a couple hours anyways.

A couple of guys started to fall out by 6:30AM but I hate waking up, so I just decided not to go to sleep, I watched some tv, there was always someone to talk to whether it was Justin or Janice or Phillip....and then around 8:30AM ish People started waking up more and more.....It was so bizarre, I have never stayed up 24 hours straight like that before. I'm glad i've never had to do it for school or anything, this was definitely a fun cause :D LoL The closest thing was probably grad trip, but even then, I slept on the bus down to Disneyland.

Tiffany, Chrissy, Charlie and Benny(I think) went out to go get the breakfast supplies and then came back and the guys cooked and awesome breakfast (with some slight super vision) but it was very tasty and a lot of hard work went into it. :D I played a lot of video games for a while, I watched them play San Andreas...(horrid game. oi) ...and then they put in Chrissy's Tekkin Tag :D Which me and Benny did pretty well at against Kyle :D ....the day was really slow I think cause not many people got much sleep the night before LoL we mostly hung around and did nothing...LoL a lot of "we should do something..." but nothing actually came up, we played another game of cranium, it wasn't boys against girls or anything big, just for fun. Then Tiff and benny had to go, Justin and Janice left before that and then Phillip left around the same time as tiffany and benny. Maria, Charlie, Kyle and I were left at Chrissy's house, Maria and Charlie played DDR, it was Maria's first time, she was really good, I was/am starting to get pooped. lackage of sleep...definitely kicking in. LoL

All in all weather could have been better, but it was definitely a fun weekend. (ironic since the sleep-over didn't really consist of much sleep) the girls were ment to sleep in Lee's cleared out room, most of us never set foot in there for more than five minutes LoL.

Gah Things are getting fuzzy I've had a busy week...and lackage of sleep recently, so this may be incoherent and have typos..but i'm trying...at this point I haven't sleep in 36 hours....i really do hate waking up LoL so when i sleep i do it for a loooooong time and when i stay up i stay up for a loooooooong time...i doubt this will be something i'll be doing anytime soon LoL

Holidays

....for like the first time in a long time the holidays have come and gone with out too much drama.... I don't know, sometimes we all seem more into the holiday spirit than others. This year the yule-level was a lot lower. We had a dinner my aunt made :) The kids were ..eh, started acting out every once in a while, I think Braden's schizo. hella randomly he'd just shout "NOOOOOOO STOP" I mean like really random..we were just eating dinner in the kitchen (I got banished to the kid table, which consisted of me, my sister my older cousin and the two short persons) and then he was just fine then he suddenly shouted "NO" put his hand out (like the "stop in the name of love" motion LoL) and jumped out of his chair into the other room. I am not a fan of kids.

We opened gifts, I got a lot of jewlery....much of which I will never wear.... and a car safety kit...some money and some gift certificates...nothing too thrilling. This year was a low key year. I'm surprised I didn't get any games for my xbox. oh well. it went by well, I played jr. monopoly with my cousins...uhm very "quiet" (not in the decibel sense but in the event sense)

Today was real "quiet" too, I started cleaning up a bit and then I shopped online at towerrecords.com cause EVERYTHING was on sale so yeah. bought some cd's and stuff. Uhm. watched the Disney Christmas Parade. Had chicken for dinner.

I can't wait until wednesday :D I really hope things go well :)

Chrissy! *GASP*

PrNiShUsAnGl3482 (8:26:29 PM): for the mailman in my pantry yes :P

I need some help. these finals are too oppressing. My brain is reading things wrong LoL. HAHAHAAHHHAAHAHAH *goes nuts*

I wish school was done.

UGGGGGGGGGH. I wish I could just work like super insanely fast and get this final paper over and done with. I finally figured out when I'm going christmas shopping. :D ....after christmas.

It's just not going to get done anytime before. I haven't even thought about doing math homework or studying for that final which I actually need to do. ugh. *insert pathetic bursts of tears*

I donated blood with Chrissy today :D It's just not as much fun when you're by yourself. Anywhoo it was held at the boys scout center thingie on Davis St. and so there's a lobby when you enter and the lady pointed us down towards the assembly rooms farther down the hall and so we headed in that direction and then Chrissy was like "HEY it's your cousin!" ...i was like WOAH. RANDOM FAMILY MEMBER. LoL He had gotten his Eagle scout status earlier this year so they put his picture up on the wall...it was so bizarre. LoL ....i did stuff at chrissy's house...and then went back to eat lunch at mine

I was taking a break from my essay today and watched the episode of ellen..and "Big Gin" was Justin Timberlake. DUDE. freaking hilarious seeing him dance in that gingerbread man suit. LoL freaking awesome. brightened up my day just a tad ;)

then I started back on my essay....which I will still proceed to do...now...

*insert cow moo here*

Per request of the Buff Stuff I have decided to proceed with an update.
Kreatr2 (9:12:34 PM): lol Kreatr2 (9:12:39 PM): i do have nuts

also throwing off my train of thought....Uh..haven't done much. checked out a ton of books for my english paper which I still have no idea what the flippin heck i'm gonna do. I have a meeting with her on Monday though, hopefully i'll figure it out then.

Uh.....I went shopping with my mom on friday. We went to Stoneridge to go eat lunch with my dad and then shop at the lego store, and toy stores looking for stuff for my cousins. We went to Best buy for my other cousins and then back to Toys R Us for the little persons. very long shopping day, but I did actually get started on christmas gifts. Charlie's, Janice's and part of Chrissy's is done....I don't know when the rest is gonna get done, I have to finish finals stuff..which ends on the 22nd...doesn't leave much time :(

But I don't actually know when we're exchanging gifts...so maybe i have a couple of days after christmas? ....hmmmm

i lead a very boring life...*insert cow moo here*

An Elmo Joke

There is a factory in America which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys. The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arm.

A new employee is hired at the Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her first day promptly at 08:00. The next day at 08:45 there is a knock at the Personnel Manager's door.

The Foreman from the assembly line throws open the door and begins to rant about the new employee. He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behindschedule. The Personnel Manager decides he should see this for himself so the 2 men march down to the factory floor.

When they get there the line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor and they're really beginning to pile up.

At the end of the line stands the new employee surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me Elmo's. She has a roll of plush red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles. The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs.

After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches the woman.

"I'm sorry," he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face, "but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday."

"Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles."

Janice is Freaking awesome man...

Janice is Freaking awesome (and buff) man...

Pasta Night November 2004

I got a ride from Kyle on Friday cause his errands were finished early :) then him, me, chrissy, janice and justin all went to safeway to get grocerys for the pasta night :D We got back to Chrissy's house and chilled for a bit, they played DDR and I watched...I can only play around Chrissy and Janice LoL with anyone else there it's weird...

Then at 4:40 we started making the brownies so they'd have enough time to cool. That wasn't so bad...next time the marshmallows go on top of the brownies, not in them. The marshmallows just made the brownies get poofy, and you couldn't really taste them anyways. :( but Kyle likes to lick the bowl! AAAAAAAAACK of all the years my mom makes cookies and all of that stuff, I've NEVER eaten the dough or licked the bowl eeech. He licked the spoons and part of the bowl. I tried to turn a blind eye but I just couldn't take it any longer so I took the bowl and filled it with water so he'd stop LoL he didn't take all too kindly to that one but oh well it was nasty.

Then by the time it got into the oven and all of that, it was 5 so we started with the spaghetti sauce. I taught kyle how to take the casing off of the sausage so you can easily break it apart. He did a very good job :) and then he also cooked the sausage very efficiently (eh, he's a pro!) We dumped the two sauces in the pot and stirred, instant maranara sauce and meatballs LoL :) then we just waited for people to come. Phillip came, then Charlie, then elisa and tiff and benny came later at 8 ish. Pasta was good, sauce excellent, garlic bread awesome :D, salad very good. I think it was a successful dinner :)

Then Tiffany and Benny came with Cranium :) They finished watching the episode, and we started to figure out the wager. Janice and I thought of one that the boys had to plan our next event. That was iffy I dunno, then someone thought of the one that they had to wash our cars if we won :D ...I thought we went with that one, but I guess it got changed, also one that they had to cook for us was thrown out cause that could seriously backfire on us...after 50 billion hours, the guys finally decided that we would make them bacon and grilled cheese sandwiches if they won.
After "good vibrations", martha stewart, JFK, and model airplanes the girls were victorious once again WHOOT! So now the boys have to plan a sincere event for all of us :) I hope it works out.

We went on to eat the brownies a la mode with vanilla ice cream :) the brownies turned out all right...eh. marshmellows in it were a bad idea, they only go on top, or they have to go into DEEP brownies, not short ones like we made.

We cleaned up...ahem. and then people started leaving 11:40 ish? Elisa, Kyle and I stuck around for a little while longer than he dropped me off at my house, said our goodbyes and I wandered in at about 3am LoL...gotta love easy going parents. :D

Boy do I feel Crummy.

Boy do I feel crummy.

1) I have two essay's due on the days we come back Monday and Tuesday. I'm not thrilled about either. English I can either write about Wacko-Jacko (That's right, the infamous Michael Jackson) or observe guys and girls in groups at the mall...it's only slightly stalkerish. Sociology I have to break a cultural norm and then write about it. I'm honestly not thrilled to do either cause I have no ideas for either and this is my holiday too, the teachers shouldn't be the only ones to get off.
So today I went to New Park Mall to attempt to accomplish both. I was going to try to do something weird with my hair; that is until I came to the conclusion that I have too much hair to do anything coolweird with it. So I gave up on doing that. and I was going to wait until 3:30 ish to go to the food court and creepily stare at people. Within that time I went throughout the mall, I had a $30 gift certificate. I found nothing good to buy, kinda ticked me off BUT ALAS! I think I see hope! A shiny glimmer in the form of those toy dispenser thingies. I found one with these stickers of these cute animals. I hadn't seen those stickers since the last time Alex and I went to Bayfair on a Wednesday afternoon. I was fairly stoked and inserted my .50 hopeing I wouldn't get the one I already have. Well I guess I wished too hard. I got nothing. I turned and turned with bated breath only to find NOTHING CAME OUT. that machine ate my money, I guess that one probably hadn't been refilled since I got the one at Bayfair either. Well they say a sucker is born every minute....58.....59....me.
It was still kinda early, so I went to Old Navy and see if they had anything on sale...strike that..anything good on sale. Which they didn't but I remember they had awesomely big bouncy balls for only a quarter...and me, being the glutton for punishment (and food) that I am, I used my last quarter to put into a machine (of the types that had unmercifully eaten my previous two) and possibly get one nasty looking piece of rubber. I guess the toy vending machine gods had served me their wrath and found that I was worthy of one good thing. so I got a fairly cool looking bouncy ball.
I didn't find anything, nothing cool was on sale and I was still bitter about having to go all the way to Newark. I was bored of walking around and it was about 3:40pm then so decided to mosey back to the food court to see. Yeah, I wasn't feeling real stalkerish then and actually quite lonely and upset that my plans didn't work (I didn't get my hair in a mohawk and I didn't buy anything with my gift certificate) so since I was up there, I figured it'd look weird if I was just sitting there by myself staring at people and then taking notes. So I walked around and see if anything "tickled" my fancy. None did, so I went with the old faithful "Starbucks" Checked out the holiday specials and settled on the Peppermint Mocha frapp. only to find that all that was left in my wallet were two receipts. "Ah, oh well I'll just have to break my emergency $20" ...yeah. it doesn't really work if you don't have it. I had left all my money in my other pants and was only left with plastic. I figured it'd be pretty pathetic to charge $2.90 and I didn't really want that tall peppermint mocha crapp (I know it's a typo, but I left it anyways...funny how close those two words are)

so the fact that I had no cash, the stupid machine ate my .50, I didn't find anything good, and when I did the pants were too long, my plans were spoiled and I was all alone was putting me pretty far down on the "HI I'M HAPPY!!!!!" scale. : so I sat for five minutes, let all that anger and bitterness swell inside of me and stormed off in a true juvenile fashion. Only to get back to my car, begin to drive off and then sit in traffic for a long time.

Things that sucked today at the mall:

• Not being able to stick my hair in a mohawk
• Having to do these two stupid essay's to begin with
• Having to stress about these two stupid essays
• The fact that the machine ate my .50 cents
• There weren't any good stuff at the mall today
• I had no cash to buy ...I had no cash
• Driving back home in traffic with crazy people...in stupid mazda 3's

One good thing..hanging in the middle of the mall (where the elevators are) is this HUGE sign maybe 7 or 8 feet by 6 feet that has a picture of this women kinda cartoonish in black and white I forgot what she was doing, but I was like...hm "i wonder what that's for" and then I looked in the lower right corner to see in big bold letters "Kotex fits. Period." CHA! I had a mini laugh over that one...

UGH I cannot wait for thursday and FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hurry. please.

busy busy busy!

Last weekend wasn't so chill as I thought it was going to be, but it was still fun none the less :)

11/11 Thursday-GAH! someone let the waterworks run! gah. pouring rain, and so of course, Al and I decide to go to an outdoor mall LoL we had lunch a Mimi's pretty good :) I had this chicken parmigana thing :) and corn chowdah!

Then we went to go to see Alfie at the Hacienda theater, OMG stupid box office outside! gr. the line was SO LONG! 20 yards or so, all the way back. It was veterians day so kids were out of school, and it was raining, the incredibles is a hugely popular movie and the polar express had just opened the day before. gah. the line moved fairly quickly...there were a couple of times where it down poured...dude. kids were playing in the fountain thingie and it didn't really make much difference it was that wet LoL.

So we bought out ticket and then we went to Any Mountain (where al bought a hat) and then Bed Bath and Beyond, we wandered around and bought some candy :) Also went to Best buy and I bought a couple of CD'S :) Snow patrol for 6.99 WHOOT!

We walked back and got to the the theater at 1:30 (showing was at 2:00pm) but they weren't letting ANYONE in! Cause people were lined up all over the place for the incredibles! grrrr so we were waiting outside forever it was madness, people didn't know what line to go in our movie started at 2:00 and it was 1:55 and STILL no one was letting us in! ugh. it was so stupid and crowded and unorganized. they needed some signs. serious signs. I don't understand why they didn't let us in! we weren't in line for the incredibles our tickets proved that, they should have just let in the people with tickets for alfie go in at 1:30 or whatever and then there would have been one less group of people out there. gah. whatever. So the movie was alright, kinda drawn out, but jude law was good...not exactly a feel-good movie though LoL

11/12 Friday: Maria and I met up at 10:30AM WHOOT! she was so on time :D Then we went to bart to go to bezerkeley lol. We walked through the campus and then through some shops, the met up with tiffany at 12:00pm :D Before that, Elisa called me saying that the rally was at 1:00pm instead of the normal 2:00pm. We were counting it to be at 2 so we could eat lunch there and then go visit the campus and tiff's dorm! :( but that didn't work. So we rushed and ate at the cafeteria, awesome :) fresh food lots of vegeterian stuff if you wanted. SOFTIES! LoL maria and I had some fun :) lol Joey came near the end so we got to talk to him for a bit too :) Gah we walked as fast as we could to get to the bart station in hopes of not missing the whole rally. We just missed the 1:20 train and the next one was at 1:40 :( so we just hung out for a bit...from the bart station to school isn't far, and we got there in time for the sophomore's skit. When we got there, it was so packed in the back of the gym it was hard to see and wasn't really worth staying there, so we tried the other sides still packed with jr. and seniors and RANK MUSTY! yech. muy apesta. Tiff and maria had the bright idea of trying to get to the top of the gym LoL ah so I just went along, we just ended up on the stage. No said anything about us being up there....none of the teachers kicked us off LoL so we just hung out there and watched the skits. they weren't that great..infact they sucked.

We crashed at my house for a little bit, tiff went to go home and rest a bit and maria stayed for dinner. Awesome video gamer maria has nearly finished my game for me! hee hee :D

11/13 Saturday: I went with my mom to the harvest festival, it was alright. I didn't find anything :( mom had tix at will-call so we got to surpass the really long line WHOOT! Then we went to dinner at this vietnamese restaurant on e14th street really good :)

11/14 Sunday: Dad, and everyone else came back from their china trip. Awesome it was like christmas LoL a buncha stuff and a new mp3 player :D whoot! That night uncle wilbur was coming over so I cleaned all my files off the computer so I could give it to him to fix cause it wouldn't register things plugged into the usb ports, so no digital pictures or mp3's. I had that digital camera for two years but never used it cause the pictures couldn't be uploaded, I had that mp3 player for less than a day before I got the computer fixed so I could use it LoL my priorities are seriously messed up LoL

This past weekend I wasn't too busy, friday I did a bunch of homework cause my computer was still getting fixed... I went to dinner with Alex, Janice and Chrissy at Denny's we went to baker's square for dessert and we watched ELF at chrissy's house. (Janice, you're FAMOUS!)

11/15 Saturday, I honestly cannot remember what I did...wow I have a sucky memory LoL ha!....
11/16 Sunday, I went to REI with my mom to spend my gift certificate uhm. yah after fifty billion hours i finally settled on a pair of Teva flip flops (not even the ones I wanted :'( and a photon light (not the color i wanted) but I was already there and not planning to make a second trip...and yeah. went to an awesome place called Barney's Burgers in albany on SOLANO ave! ha i finally remembered...after I asked my mom LoL anyway they make AWESOME burgers and root beer floats! three scoop of dryers grand vanilla ice cream and a bottle of IBC root beer who could as for anything more? ah...

Then I went to go see the Incredibles with Tiffany, Benny, Emily, Karen and Jason wow I hadn't seen them in a long time...they got big LoL it was a good movie...Jack Jack is one bizarro kid....really. Edna was hilarious LoL :) I enjoyed it :)

Gah so thanksgiving all ready! :( wow. November has gone by so fast DUDE freaking 96.5 is already playing christmas songs ugh. I can't listen to them yet LoL this sucks though stupid teachers give me an essay due on monday and one on tuesday CHA like I'm gonna acutally work this weekend! grrr. i like teachers with the philosophy that if they get the holiday we get a holiday too. but nooooooooooooo. ugh. oh well I'll probably be doing it on sunday LoL ha.

My car needs a wash...i should be doing it now, along with my psych studying...but no. i'm taking a break LoL

WHOO GO FRIDAY! we're having our own little pasta/thanksgiving leftovers dinner at chrissy's house followed by a cranium game heh heh heh :) I can't wait to see everyone :)

Bleh things have been a bit busy, essay, tests etc. But today was soo nice and relaxing, turned in my essay and the rest of the day was a breeze :)

Tomorrow's easy, I have to sit through math, but that's no biggie, and then I get to go home. The psych class is going to the library for people that aren't going to do the extra credit, but I've done well on both of the tests and hw stuff so I'm not going to waste my time.
I do have to sign up for spring classes tomorrow, a majority started signing up today, so I hope there's still the classes I want, gah it was hard enough to organize when I'm figuring they're all free to get into, but who knows. I'm gonna try to log on in the morning and get it all done before some other people...hopefully it'll help, but who knows.

Last weekend was Janice's b-day celebration (just a little bit late LoL) We went to this cambodian restaurant which was good, it was less family style and more larger personal portions, or family style for like four people. It was alright, the food tasted good :D We then went to chrissy's house and made the most MASSIVE sundae ever! a buncha banananas, whipped cream, candy, sprinkles, cherries, chocolate and caramel sauce, and the ice cream! can't forget that LoL two different types. It was really good, we all should have gone into a sugar coma after that though LoL. Janice got some earrings, and a weight with her head over this superhero's body LoL "Funky (Wo)man" :D a necklace from me, shirts from chrissy and the Family Guy season DVD. :D we had fun times :) lots of laughing and a couple of good pictures ;)

This weekend's gonna be chill, I'm gonna hang out with al cause she doesn't have work and then Saturday I'm gonna go with my mom to this Fall Harvest festival thing pretty cool stuff. ahhhh and relax :D

Sock'er

...I thought some of you might get a kick outta this one LoL

San Luis Obispo

The short version...cause the long one got WAAAAAAAY too drawn out LoL

Left a little later than expected, but it was all good :) Some slight traffic, but overall good driving experince getting there...the ride was a bit long, but many odd things were said along the way. Don't put three hungry girls in a car ride for an extended amount of time. Too much comes out of that like "CHUUUUUUUALAR" "OPEN TRENCH" "chaps :( ...and all that came after that...gah ...emotional chaps?!"

Had issues finding Kyle's dorm cause Cal Poly thought..."HEY! Let's put unidentified identical buildings shrouded by shrubs so no one can figure out where they are!!!" ....yeah. no bueno. but by some luck we found his dorm...and him too LoL. (in desperate need of a hair cut..and also afflicted with the lame disease) lots of hugs and "we missed you" thrown in there too :)

We has serious munchies so we went driving around for a place to eat...not many actually....but we eventually found one...weird italian/asian food in wraps or bowls...it was okay. satisfied the hunger. Ooh then we went to Ralphs to pick up some munchies :) that took a bit of time, but in the end the choices were made and we went back to the hotel.

Before sleeping, they all decided to torture me...cause they thought it was fun...yeah like pouring salt on a snail is fun....UNLESS YOU'RE THE SNAIL. OI. gah..emotional chaps, PSSSSSSST, that horrid song that shall go unnamed...someone singing the unamed song. ugh, all in all good laughs and staying up until 2am lol :)

First thing we did (after getting up at like 10) was getting a haircut for mr. shaggy head! that took half hour, 45 minutes? went to ihop :) had some lunch, ohmygod. they made me watch it again. team america, i swear to you, it doesn't get any better...no matter how many times you suffer through it. But then we proceeded to shop around, janice and chrissy made some purchases...eh I didn't really feel there were any worth my money, so I didn't buy anything...
(small random note though, I think I saw one other asian, the whole weekend....it was a bit bizarre...)

so anyways, back to the hotel..OMG. i think we saw EVERY episode of "Pimp My Ride" made! LoL they just seemed to keep coming! ...uhm we saw a clip of a madtv skit....which was just unexplicably hilarious to them... :/ We were gonna go to an arcade..until we figured it was too far, I was sick of driving LoL, I finally caved and let kyle drive back to his dorm (only after he drove did I remember he hasn't in over a month and a half ) LoL but we got there just fine and dandy...picked up more munches (others ran low) ...then went back for bed..and lots more talking..and random leg drumming..LoL OOh and chrissy's hand juggling LoL greeeeat stuff :)

bleh then the next morning woke up (WHOOOOO GO DST!) and then went to this cafe place..eh..it was okay (they really don't have great food in San Luis Obispo...) walked around the shops one last time and then said goodbyes...wow was that depressing. yeah...but it only took us 35 minutes! LoL and we got to see the people next door LoL

drive home was quick about 3hrs. and 15 mins. not bad.

overall trip was really good :) I think we all had a lot of fun, and yeah.
el fin.

Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day

I walk a lonely road
The only one I that have ever known
Don't know were it goes
But it's home and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I'll walk alone

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And where I walk alone

Read between the lines of what's
F***ed up and everything's all right

Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I'll walk alone

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh

I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a..

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I'll walk away


Here's an awesome mix of this song, "Wonderwall" and part of a travis song
"Boulevard of Broken Songs (right click "save as")
you can also find it at www.partyben.com There are a bunch of cool mixes there :)

Meet Joe Black

Cheesy Chick Flick Hee hee :)

"I know it's a cornball thing but love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? I say fall head over heels. Find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart."

This Weekend.

Things have been going pretty well lately :) Friday I kinda chilled, after thursday bleh, being sick during class in not fun, but luckily you can leave when you need to and I got a car...sans those two things, I wouldn't have made it through thursday LoL
Got Charlie's birthday gift, went to jamba juice, had some slight technical difficulties, but I got there in once piece :D Watched the movie Pieces of April, it wasn't as great as I thought I'd be, but it wasn't horrible.

Saturday..was slightly quite stressful. I was a bit of a Frazzled Frizzy LoL and Wow I don't know if I've ever talked that much on the phone ever LoL everyone was calling! I picked up Chrissy on time! ....everything after that went slightly downhill. Tiff suggested that someone get charlie baloons since it was his birthday, and chrissy didn't really have a gift, so she was gonna get that for him. It was a saturday morning and the line really wasn't as busy as it could have been. But there was some really stupid person in front of us. grrrrrrrrrrrrr. made me
SUPER frusterated! and well he FINALLY got out of the way and that took an extra 10-15 minutes, (in that time we were suppose to pick up Janice :( but we got the baloons, and then headed down to the library, which also took 15 minutes. and Got there a half an hour late picking up Janice :( Gah I felt so bad, I hate when people have to wait for me. :(

But it was okay because Charlie, Justin and Phillip still weren't there LoL although tiff, benny, elisa, mr. del, maria and her jyun were there. Tiff and Benny got him boston creme pie and we gave him his gifts :) We had a good time. many "comments" were made ;)
Chrissy, Janice and I hung out afterwards, we weren't really planning to, but then we drove by Bayfair and the lure of Kohls drew us in LoL. So we checked it out, it's like a Mervyns it was okay, but I thought it was kinda cramped....not a good place for clausterphobes. Yeah. Then we went to target, I found my 3/8" ribbon WHOOT! and the Uptown Girl's DVD for $9.44 I love target :) the little neurotic girl in that movie is funny LoL. and she's really quite talented.
That night, I went to my aunt's house where my other aunt and uncle got back from DisneyWorld. They went with another couple and their kids, so they were over at the house too. OMG. The decibels grows exponentially with each new child. There were four and it was really really loud. I left a bit early and my sister and dad stayed a bit after. Then I watched some tv and fell asleep.

Today I went to Dim sum with my aunt and cousin and sister in San Mateo really good :) thennn we came home and I did reading bleh.

Quote of the Moment: "Faster! Faster! HARDER!!!" Tiff. C :)

I probably should be writing...

(I'm taking a slightl break from my paper, but I've gotten three pages done and it's not due until wed. so I've got some time) :D
Okay, so on Friday I called maria at 1:30pm and was like, hey let's hang out, since she wasn't going to go SL and neither of us had classes, she said she was getting ready to go and I got cleaned up too (i.e. at least outta my pj's) and in true sexy maria form, she didn't get to my house until 2:45pm LoL :D we love you mariaaa! :D

We played some video games :D whoo go voodoo vince :) and then we went to go eat dim sum stuff at 5:00pm with Tiffany and Janice and Chrissy and manny was with them too. :) We chatted and had some good times ("DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE STARBUCKS!" "rectal?!") and then at 6:15-ish we went out separate ways, Maria had to go to her house and fill up on gas and then she so kindly drove to Tiffany's Church where we stayed and listened and then we went to Castro Valley to go mini golfing at Golfland. Si Maria the Sexy was so good LoL Tiffany had to cool off her ball a couple of times an "fan" it :D but she was really good too, I stunk on the other hand LoL expecially at those ones where the hole was on top of a mound LoL

Then Maria and I had the Mad (Menstrual for Maria) Munchies so we went to Wendy's (eat great even late!) and I got a frosty and she got some nuggets :D and we ate at my house and then she left :(

Saturday was...uhm hectic to say the least LoL we were suppose to go to a baseball game with fireworks that day at 6:05 I think the game started, but anywhoo I guess it was a big game they wanted to televise so they moved the game to 1:05 without letting like ANYONE know gah we only knew because my aunt called us at like 11:45 after reading the newspaper. Gah okay so yeah we went to the game the A's lost it after leading for like a buncha innings...oh well I was still bitter because they had the fireworks last night and not tonight GRRRRRRRR. Then we went to eat Japanese food on E14th. and yeah it was good. Rented CSI for my english essay (don't ask LoL) and had a nightmare gah those shows are graphic!

Today...I wrote my essay...for a looooong time from like 10:30am-2:30pm (with a break for lunch LoL) gah I should get back to it now, still have some reading to do...yaaaaay. (that was totally deadpanned by the way)

Jaaaaaano: the one I took notice was the oasis song :) but the song by Hellogoodbye was good too :) very..peppy LoL :D LoL gah we have to visit the bumming HQ soon :( I haven't been there in forever long! I <3 you to Jaaaaaaaaano!!! :D

Happy 25th. mom and dad :)

Happy 25th Anniversary Mom and Dad :)

Yay today was their celebration (the acutal thing is on wed.)
Most of today was planning and getting stuff for their celebration thingie. We went to party city to pick up baloons and then to fremont (to eat first with my aunt LoL) and then we shopped around a bit and then picked up their cake (mocha and apricot) YUMMY! Then we went to the home cause we forgot the address of the flower shop, so then we went back out to the flower shop, (15:20 and they closed at 15:30) so we got a hand boquet which looked really great :) They went to their dinner reservations at Kinkaids at 6:30 and we went to Auntie Kathy's house for dinner.
Uncle Wilbur and the little people were there...dinner was good...as usual :D uhm, then mom and dad came back from their dinner and we surprised them with the flowers, baloons and cake. and then came the real surprised, dad's ring for her :) gah it was soooooo nice :) she was genuinely surprised too :D Overall it was a really great night :) I'm glad they finally had one good evening :)
cha I didn't even know it was their 25th, until monday....they say %50 of people who get married get divorced...but I guess that still leaves %50 still together...Nowadays, that's something rare, and for 25 years? extraordinary...eventually I want a marrage that'll last that long.

That's mostly what I did today...uhm I started watching Meet Joe Black, it's got high points and REALLY low points, gah some parts I was nearly falling asleep, and then Brad Pitt breaks out with his Jamacian accent gah I was SO cracking up over that one LoL HA! super greatness. Stupid "encore", channel with no actual "encores" GAH!

I might even rent it, we got a 2 fer 1 card for block buster, and I still need to see whale rider. ...

Gah I should go to sleep now, I've been cranky and tired all day.

p.s. I don't know what to do with kids. really. don't hand them to me, I have no idea what to do with them. although i did learn how to build a cruise ship with legos today. ....it turned out the same..ish. legos have SUCKY instructions.

College is great becauseeeeeee

It's great because teachers cancel class, and students get to go home at 10:15 :D....well I did :D super great :)

Super not great is me losing this really important card :( I have another one...but it's slightly uneasy that there's another card out there with the stuff I need on it...I REALLY don't know where'd it be at.....this really sucks :(

oh well tomorrow i'm hanging out with chrissy and maria...if I can find her LoL si so yeahhhh I dunno I'll post later ..some other time. gah getting shocked everytime you get out of the car sucks. booty.

I also got a few pictues from the monterey trip up :) I didn't take too many though :(
Pictures from our Monterey Trip :)

Teri Go Boom.

Omg today was such a stressful day This weekend was really busy, I had work, dinner and other stuff to do and that english paper. So usually in math, we go over the section and then she suggests problems and it's up to you if you want to do them etc...so I totally forgot what we did on thursday so I figured it was just the same until yesterday afternoon i opened the book and was like OHCRAP! I have to do this "graded review" thingie...where she actually checks it unlike the rest of the "homeworks" So I was freaking out because it was 1, really hard and 2 worth points ( I suck at math and need all the points I can get) (But I figured it was worth 15 or 20 pts)
And then I had a psych test today too, and I wasn't that well prepared (probably the worst prepared I'd ever been for a test) and I needed to finish reading the chapter and going over all the notes, there was SO MUCH to review...So I was freaking out about that and spend all last night doing that :( and then early this morning too. I woke up at 6AM to try and study more and finish more of the math, which I couldn't get done.
So as I was going through the math syllabus I saw that we only have four of those "graded reviews" and that it was worth 100pts. same as a test! and I skipped like 5 outta 15 problems! I was about to have a mental breakdown...gah noooooooo bueno..

But at the end I was just like whatever, I did what I could; what's done is done, and I'll just have to do that much better on all the other tests, but I felt soooooooooo bad this morning BLEH. But I got through today...hakuna matata

I got my pictures back from my monterey trip, I didn't take too many, but the puter the scanner's hooked up to isn't working so I can't scan them yet :( But when I do I'll post the link

Company Outting :)

This morning was raining! :( bleh....But I woke up at 9:30 and double checked if we were still having our co-worker bbq today :) and Patty, Rosolva and Rocio were already at the park so I showered and got ready and went to the park at 11

Almost everybody was already there, Rocio, Patty, Rosolva, Norbert, Tiffany, Harrison, Autumn and Elisa...I think that was it...and they were playing football, which I suck at so I just kinda watched. Then we snacked for a while, and we started getting hungry, but Peter was still at safeway getting ligher fluid which we needed to start cooking. He eventually came, and then we stared the bbq, and They stared cooking hotdogs, but we had no ice chest and no soap, we really needed soap so me and Harrison drove back to my house to get ice, an ice chest and soap. We also went to safeway to get more bottles of soda since we seemed to go through them pretty fast and they were on sale :D So we bought more ice at safeway and nearly outta the Greenhouse, we get a call and they want charcoal. bleh! so we had to drive back, and wait in line etc. for the charcoal. Then we went back to the park, not many people were really there since I guess it was Sunday and last night/this morning it was raining so their parties got cancled.

They had cooked some hotdogs by the time we got back and so we munched on those for a bit. Now that the soap was back, we started cooking the raw chicken etc and so I didn't want to eat it off of the nasty grill so, we wrapped it in foil (I tried suggesting that we cover the grill not the chicken, but they took it the other way around. So the chicken kinda steamed in its own juices, but it still was tasty and juicy :)

Autumn and Tiffany had to go, but Danielle came a lot later with no cupcakes :( But we ate listened to music, had fun, took tons of pictures :D and stuff. So we decided that instead of having danielle go to her house, pick up the cupcakes and bring them back, we would just go to her house. (bleh, so I put the cooler in the trunk, but I lifted up the carpet thingie thinking it would get dirty, and the plastic table would be easier to clean, but the cooler just moved all around and scratched everything up AHHHHHHH :( the table looks so messed up now :( I am so upset) Anywhoo so at Danielle's house, we saw her room and had cupcakes :) yay! We chilled there for a bit and then I had to be home for dinner and I was getting SO tired, so I left at 6pm, Peter and Elisa left too cause they had to go.

And the end! LoL it was pretty fun and YAY! I finally made it to one of the company outings! LoL

Helping the economy anyway I can LoL

I went shopppppppppping today! the first time I've gotten out since last friday. gah I need to get out more. Definitely needed today Thank you Janice!!! so yes I finished off my paper today :D WHOOT! and then Janice and I went to checkout the sales at Stoneridge. :D We had quite of bit of fun at Aeropostal LoL :D I bought some jeans for $13.50 WHOOT! I love 'em then I bought 2 shirts for $22 and two keychain thingies...I probably shouldn't have bought the second one cause it wasn't really exactly what I wanted, but the one I wanted was pink. i really could not handle the pink. but I wanted the detachable clippie oh well :) LoL :D

uhm yessss and so we had some CPK, the garlic chicken was REALLY good :) (great choice janice) and then we kinda walked some of it off and then I took her back home :D

super good day!!! and new clothes! I haven't gotten those in a while LoL I knew working was good for something...:)

EDITED TO ADD: this freaking hilarious picture LoL!!! gah thanks Al!!!!

totally made me laugh :)

My Fatal Flaw, by Ephram Brown

Whoo I LOVE Everwood :) great show...too truthful, I wonder who actually wrote this. I was flipping through old random quotes and stuff I saved over the years, and this was something I was re-reading and thought it'd be nice to post.


My Fatal Flaw, by Ephram Brown

The more things change, the more they stay the same. I'm not sure who the first person was who said that. Probably Shakespeare. Or maybe Sting. But at the moment, it's the sentence that best explains my tragic flaw: my inability to change.

I don't think I'm alone in this. The more I get to know other people, the more I realize it's kind of everyone's flaw. Staying exactly the same for as long as possible, standing perfectly still... It feels safer somehow. And if you are suffering, at least the pain is familiar. Because if you took that leap of faith, went outside the box, did something unexpected... Who knows what other pain might be out there, waiting for you. Chances are it could be even worse.

So you maintain the status quo. Choose the road already traveled and it doesn't seem that bad. Not as far as flaws go. You're not a drug addict. You're not killing anyone... Except maybe yourself a little.

When we finally do change, I don't think it happens like an earthquake or an explosion, where all of a sudden we're like this different person. I think it's smaller than that. The kind of thing most people wouldn't even notice unless they looked at us really close. Which, thank God, they never do.

But you notice it. Inside you that change feels like a world of difference. And you hope this is it. This is the person you get to be forever... that you'll never have to change again.

Essay's suck.

I hate doing papers, but if I don't do it I feel so unproductive bleh. I need it done by monday.

Today I had a sociology test, I hate true or false questions. More than half the test was true or false. greeeeeeeeat. English test wasn't that bad. No more schooooool :( I deposited my check today yay! lol finally gah it takes me forever to do things like that.

I really don't wanna go back to my essay...

PMS sucks. sooper dooper sucks.

I have the shortest attention span right now.

I can't write about something this lame :( sooper dooper lame. I want to go do something fun...

I haven't done anything fun since...last thursday. that was a while ago.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII need to get out.

It is way too hot to be 19:35.

Handsfree Headsets are great...until they randomly hang up on people...NOT MY FAULT.

"IIIIIIIIIIIII smiled through the blue for you"-go random evan and jaron song

I just feel like being super random.

Green pea soup sank in my stomach after the pumpernickle toast. (I SO was gonna write "humpernickle" there lol wow. that was immature)

"The philosopher, Kierkegaard, he said the most painful state of being is remembering the future. Particularly one you can never have."
Things change. The world spins. Time moves. Life goes on.

Say Cheese! :D

Uhm, lessee. Not too much has happened...Thursday I finally quenched my thirst for a rootbeer float yummy I've been wanting one forever!...well not really only since sunday LoL :) uhm, yessss that was super good, and then hung out for a bit :)

Friday went to chrissy's house :) made spaghetti and sausage for kyle's goodbye lunch LoL, had some good caramel ice cream :) they played simpsons "hit and run" ..i think ? some simpsons game LoL pretty funny, and then we played a bit of ddr (with the masters ms. chrissy and janice) :D and then we said goodbye and I dropped him off. (sorry bout the lateness)

uhm yeah not much has happened LoL a lotta talking, whew. :) and a lotta reading bleh homework sucks. school overall isn't too bad when you're not spacing out LoL :)

siiiiii ooh I uploaded the pix, if you guys wanted to use it, here it is

I, am a little slow LoL

I finally saw I, Robot today after it's been out for billions of months, but this movie definitely made up for Once Upon A Time in Mexico...oi. :D thank you kyle :D

So I went to school...gah but it's only a three day week :) today we went over review math stuff, (go stuff i already know!) whoot LoL and then psych was just boring lectures :(

then I came home and did homework blaaaaah. lame reading :( and socio. uhm...let's see then yes, I went online for a while, talked on the phone during the daytime for more then 3 minutes...that's really weird. don't try to talk to me on the phone while i'm watchin tv, it produces unsatisfactory results....then decided to go to movies (dude. no one goes on tuesday nights) I drove (the volvo) and we went to go see I, Robot. movie theater was EMPTY. somebody made fun of me for wanting to check out the movie posters BAH. >( and then we sat in the empty movie theater for 20 minutes...still super empty [so we went at it like rabbits! ha. no okay, just seeing if you were paying attention (as of this date this was the only mention of rabbits)] . takes for ever to get comfy and i'm super paranoid about the hairs on the back of the chairs at the movie theater BLEH! bah and then we watched the movie, it was pretty good (one person wandered in about 5 minutes into it)

after the movie and all the credits, we went to Jamba Juice (passed all the lame people who have nothing else better to do on a tuesday night) and I got a "Lime It Up" (but they were out of lime shebert, so it was a lime it up rasberry which kyle claims tastes like strawberry pez, but it's been so long since i've had one i don't remember. ) he got an orange berry blitz, quite good I have to remember to get that sometime. uhm, yes then the Karmatic dolphin nearly poked his eyes out :D and then we drove home...si.

el fin?

Kickin it with Chrissy and Janice :)

Dude you guys spoil me too much LoL BUT I'M OKAY :D okay LoL really. but it was a quite a fun...and HOT day bah! super hot :( uhm, let's see we had some GREEEEEEEEEEEEEAT pho :D and then we did uhm "stuff" ...had some cake and ice cream :) and then played DDR wow, i hadn't even attempted that since like last year! wow. yes,

school does also but at least i only have three days this week :)

this end of this week is gonna suck major buttcakes.

"baa baa black sheep have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full." ;)

[I didn't flat-line! I swear, I'm still alive]

Give Life!

WHOO Chrissy and I gave blood today :) this time sucked more than last since the lady was like new at this, and she couldn't find the vein (which resulted in like SUPER constriction of my upper arm gah [stupid blood pressure cuffs]), when she did find the vein, she tried "anchoring" it, by pressing really hard on it, but that only resulted in her moving it over so when she poked me, it didn't work. >( and then they dug the needle around to find it...but didn't so after like 5 minutes of digging around they decided that they weren't gonna find it there, so i had to switch seats while they dug around my left arm. At least this time the woman found it and it was all good. It wasn't as scary and went SO much quicker (minus the "digging" time) gah we also got hot dogs since it was a Labor Day bbq too :) yay! uhm yes...ran some errands "special" errands :D Can't wait to show most of you guys...and tomorrow "SAY CHEESE!"

You all better make it! :D yes okay :) adios for now. over and out.

lAme

this was lame, but I had to do it LoL :D

I guess that's it. I've had way too much deep fried stuff this week. baaaaaaad teri. i must go back to the cardboard healthy stuff...soon. LoL ..."back" HA!

Tomorrow at least is my fun day :) english and sociology :D yeah. and I get out early, always a plus. sorry for the lameness and shortness and boringness of this post...i'm just feeling kinda lame now...

New Template :D

Whooo new template! The other one was getting a bit dark for me...I really like this layout and the fonts :) so WHOOT LoL Homework stinks, but it is a necessary evil. Tons of reading :( bah eventually the words just begin to swirl in my head..oi. uhm English and Sociology are great...math kinda sucks, but the teacher seems kinda funny and this chick that sits next to me seems cool, psych. well justin is quite entertaining, but I can't say the same for the instructor. As justin said, "you could take a piece of plywood, stick a happy face on it, and it'd have more personality than this lady"....too true, too true...

The radio in the volvo broke today waaaaaaaah. I think it's a connector thingie to the antenna, cause it'll work sometimes, and then suddenly go out, but then the display and everything in the radio works fine..bah that sucks

cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese. [I wish I had more time :'( ]

booooooredome.

yeah, I got home at like 12:10 after dinner and hanging out at chrissy's house...LoL throwing peanut shells on the floor is just so bizarre. uhm. yeahhhhh LoL it was a good dinner, but the service was kinda sucky... uhm yeah. work was hot and long...it stunk :( and made me stink LoL

Gah I got through my first "week" lol of "college" week is in quotes because i only have school from mon-thu and 9-noon so they're short anyways and college is in quotes because...it's chabot. Met cool new people, new chick in math class from castro valley, super cool, which is good because I'm sure I'm gonna need a study buddy for that class...

Go wednesday! I needed Chrissy's ultimate knowledge in folding cranes and so I went over and it happened that Janice and Kyle were coming over 15mins. later anyways. :) So yes we all hung out. Uhm, watched music videos manga manga'd on Chrissy's ultimate food :D I had to go pick up my Mom at BART but then I came back and yes we had some super great stir fry with seafood and fresh veggies :D We did watch BASEketball...uhm. not exactly the movie for me LoL...uhm..."Bring your Own Chicken Day"? LoL lessee, we just kinda ate and hung out and then Chrissy went to church and I had to go home to do homewooooork baaaaaah.

Homework isn't so bad, but it involves SO much freaking reading! read chapter 1, chapter 3 and then these 3 essays...bah! oh well they give enough time to do it. I've found that reading in the car is a good place, nice and quiet, and I have to get there early to get a good parking space anyways LoL. sometimes I fall asleep though...no bueno LoL. a bit too comfy LoL :)

If you need anything, go to chrissy!

So I guess I should start off with my plan...and then how things really went...LoL oi. this morning has been quite eventful wow.

Plan:

• Have alarm go off at 5:55AM to give me five-ten minutes to roll around in bed and wake up
• Get dressed, eat breakfast get ready etc...
• Leave the house at 7:10AM
• Get to school by 7:35AM so I can find parking (I heard it was absolutely horrible, and then wait in line to get into the bookstore)
• Get my books, drop the ones I don't need off and then get ready to go to class

Reality:

• When checking that alarm clock is set, accidently turn it off instead so I wake up at 7:22AM ...freak out.
• Brush my teeth, throw on a pair of pant and shirt (forgetting sweatshirt and proceed to nearly freeze)
• Super quick double check making sure I have paperwork I need
• Grab muffin throw it in backpack
• Run out the door, into the car and the zoom off to school
• Luckily there was parking and thank goodness! I bought my parking permit earlier so I didn't have to wait in the super long line for the daily one. (luckily I caught a lot of green lights so I got there at like 7:50am)
• Dump my backpack into those mini lockers, find my books wait in the fairly long line, but I quickly got my books so I was in line at 8:00AM
• I get there and they don't accept debit cards, I would have had to go to the atm and it charges me bah. stupidos. so I went back out and got my checkbook, I started filling out the crap and then he tells me I need this W# (it's like an ID number, but before i was using my SSN and it worked fine for everything else) bah so I write the check out and all that crap and then he says if I don't have that number I can't use a check, so I have to go to the ATM withdraw the money...and bah. so I finally just pay in cash. [it's more depressing to have to hand the actual cash over :( ] my books were 319.02 more than I get in one pay check :'(
• I got finished at 8:20 so I had enough time to go to my car and drop off the books that I didn't need today.

Overall it could have gone a heck of a lot worse. i.e. I could have gotten up at like 8:45 instead of 7:20...wow. that would have super sucked. really. and at least there was still parking and they had all my books. so yeah I think the morning was okay LoL

My classes today weren't too bad, my first two teachers seem pretty cool. At least they're not dull and they don't drone. Everyone that said it's like high school all over again...uhm lied. I don't think it's like school at all, it's more like separate classes. I dunno LoL it just doesn't feel like school. I like it :D mainly cause the classes are no more than an hour and 15 and NO BELLS! Whoo! and the teacher lets you out whenever she's done. that's super great. I dunno it seems okay, but I haven't been to math yet :'( i HATE MATH! aaaaaah. L-A-M-E (whenever things seem okay in the beginning it tends to get worse, and things that are really bad get easier...i have a bad preception of how hard things are/will be LoL)

so overall? first day of school not bad. (except people smoke EVERWHERE :( bleck) and I get out at 11:45 :D

The summer's all in bloom
The summer is ending soon

It's alright and it's nice not to be so alone
But I hold on to your secrets in white houses

Maybe I'm a little bit over my head
I come undone at the things he said
And he's so funny in his bright red shirt
We were all in love and we all got hurt

-white houses by vanessa carlton

I don't want to go back to school.
This has been the greatest summer ever. (well maybe not ever, but as far as I can remember this has been the greatest summer. :D Chrissy's house was the official headquarters of the bumming. Rightfully so. her house is the freaking greatest!!!!!!!!! she's got a massive bed, always tons of food, super duper comfy couches :D dang...there's heaven down the block! LoL :D of course we can't forget the most important part of chrissy's house....CHRISSY DUH! and all the people her orange aura draws in :D the buff stuff ms. Jaaaaanice, the sexay ms. maria, elisa..(sorry got no title for her) LoL, the dorky/nerdy/weird. mr. T and ...well I guess me too LoL :D but yes. her house is freaking great.. and it is, and will ALWAYS be...crackalackin'.

I've just had so many good days :D like super good days*. and of course my birthday, and bennay's birthday, and our trip to carmel WHOOT. and just like so maaaaaany good memories *sniff sniff* I hate for them to stop. but I guess things come and go, and you just have to appreciate what you've got while you have it...and I think because of previous experience, I do :) well, maybe I could appreciate them more...but dangit. i think I really am. I know i've got some good stuff. and memories no one could steal away from me. Growing up has its ups and downs, and I've done the down stuff, the lonely hermit stuff, this kinda feels like a reward :) I've got the greatest friends in the world (who've proven that time and time and time and time again ;) , and I may not deserve them, but I'm holding on while I can. :) ...in conclusion....chrissy has the greatest puns, janice has the super buffness (and supportiveness and the kindness, and the strength [figuratively/metaphorically and literally] ), Maria just has the freaking sexayness that we can all admire, and Kyle's got the nerdyness, wit and all knowingness....Tiff (working hard this summer...or hardly working? hmmmmm? LoL) has the just freaking greatness in organization, and humor :D, and optmisim. Al, who may have not been a HQ a lot, but has still made the whole summer a lot better (go "Without a Paddle" ) :D and seeing spiderman 2...okay so it wasn't super great, but james franco was worth it :D) her and her randomness and comic greatness :D I don't even know what this is...besides a super long runon paragraph, but I guess a thank you? I dunno. but if not. hey. thank you anyways :D This summer would have been seriously sucky without you. sniff sniff. I'll still be here...never moving away...and leaving forevur. If you ever get bored. yes. estoy aquí. adiooooooos. alooooooooha.

*Coffee, Joe Coffee might have had some slight power usage in those days. muahahaha. wow that made total nonsense. but go randomness! [talk 2 me] muahahahahaa.

yes.

you can stop now...

I said bye...

In different languages...

wow I haven't done one of these in a while...

okay I shall leave...

until I'm back again...

which will probably be soon...

SOMBRERO...CHEESE...FELT...FLOAATY...TEPID....and da woooooooosh.

bah, I'm learning to use the phone....it's a scary thing, and it likes to make my ear sore. I'm finally actually seeing how long my phone battery will last....LoL not too long actually, it sorta surprised me. I should learn how to hang up earlier because....i got 2.5 hr. of sleep then had to wake up and drive mom to work. got 3 hrs. of sleep and then went to work. bah. oh well.

private posts shall ne'er be read by foreign eyes!!!! even if bases and or rabbits are mentioned ;)

Sorry for the randomness of this post, as you can kinda see, i got very little sleep! Work doesn't suck as much as last year, but the paycheck is certainly a lot smaller. no bueno.

talk 2 me.

This Is Your Life
Yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
Yesterday is a promise that you've broken
Don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes,
This is your life.
And today is all you've got now.
And today is all you'll ever have.
Don't close your eyes.
(chorus)
This is your life, are you who you want to be?
This is your life, are you who you want to be?
This is your life, is it everything that you dreamed
That it would be when the world was younger,
And you had everything to lose?
Yesterday is a kid in the corner
Yesterday is dead and over.
(chorus)
This is your life, are you who you want to be?
This is your life, are you who you want to be?

Take the jump.

Wow this trip was so fun :) It was so nice to get away for a little while :D

We started off early bah! ><>Super duper mad great driving skills got us through safe and sound :) We arrived at Monterey at 10:00am :) We walked around the various shops and such, there was a shop with random antique-ish stuff and there were a couple of machines things LoL like there was one of a slot machine that spits out coins that had monterey on it and a small picture pretty cool (regardless if you get a combo or not :D ) and there was also a machine that you squeezed the handle and it had various qualities about a person, Kyle took it and it said "naughty" hm...LoL...just hm...we got a few laughs out of that. Charlie had fun in the candy store and bought a lot of taffy's :) uhm....Oh then as we were walking by one of the shops there was a restaurant giving out free samples of their clam chowdah (us, being asian, we snached them up :D ) but they were actually really really good, so it was nearly lunch time and we decided to eat there :) Kyle, Chrissy, Janice and I all had the same thing, (clam chowdah in a breadbowl), Charlie had fruit and clam chowdah, tiff had calimari, benny had a chicken sandwich. We didn't eat in the section with the view, but the restaurant was still in a location with lots of windows that we could look out and get a cheap view :D

Then we went to the beach :) None of us went full dive in, but we all kinda a waded as the tide went in and out, everything there is by meters so we only stayed for an hour an 15 minutes. That was enough :) it was kinda chilly, but at least the sun was out and all bright. :)

After that, we went to go check out the hotel, it was really new and the rooms were nice and clean :) It would have been nice to stay an extra night, but oh well ;( We all kinda mooshed in one room anyways for most of the time. It was a bit bizarre though, the mirror and sink were outside of the bathroom, but it was all good, the toilets had like SUPER flushing ability LoL...:)

So once we dumped our stuff off, we decided to go shopping and the shopping center was called the "Del Monte Shopping Center" but is conviently not located on delmonte road/street/whatever LoL So we stopped by a holiday inn and asked for directions, and shortly after, we arrived at the open air mall. Since it was a sunday, most of the stores closed at 5ish but some of the big ones closed at 6 or 7. Tiffany, Chrissy and I all bought stuff from the Gap (WHOO go $7 shirt :D) and Janice bought stuff from victoria secret (sexy stuff for the buff!) and the guys went to EB games and Waldenbooks (what neeeeeerds :D ) They were having fun with their math and logical game books LoL we hung out there until closing and then Lunch was big so we didn't really want dinner then and there so we went back to the hotel.

Then we brought out the Cranium :D LoL that is the greatest game ever. As usual, the girls won :D whoot!!! Go Chrissy for her cameo/humdingers (leave it to beaver!), Go Janice for her drawings and freaking great spelling abilities, Go Tiffany for her overall greatness and especially in the data head parts. Anyways as usual we also had a wager, that whoever lost would have to go get dinner. :D The boys went out and got jack-in-the-box and we cleaned up. The jack-in-the-box pannido which was really good :) We watched some of the olympics, (mens swimming and womens gymastics) yeah, so we kinda just hung out and were really boring LoL :D

Tiff was really tired after a day of driving and stuff so at midnight, her and benny went up to the other room and got some sleep, the rest of us just hung out and picked on charlie LoL cause dang that's fun and easy :) LoL I think at like 12:45 or one ish, we kinda started winding down and got ready to go to sleep LoL per usual Chrissy was the first one out LoL :D The rest of us mostly slept by 4:00am :D but gah, for those of you who don't know, if it doesn't say on the package, "caffene free" then midol had caffene in it LoL I didn't realize this, until I was wide awake at 5:00am and then 6:45 and 7:30am LoL...it kinda sucked...i was just like...totally up. it was bizarre. when most of us got up, we turned on the tv and watched the end of Austin Powers Goldmember. And by that time it was like 9:45 so we got ready to pack up and make sure we didn't leave anything since check out time was 11:00am We cleaned out, and then went to Denny's for breakfast.

Then we headed out to the 17 Mile Drive and omg. there were just SO many rich people there! we used the restrooms at one of the resorts there and in that parking lot there were so many ferrarri's, lamborghinis, roles royces! omg. it was just WOW. along the drive, there were so many "houses" i put houses in quotes because some of them were more like mansions! it's just OMG! it was amazing how much wealth some people have. We stopped at a small lighthouse, and walked through it, it was kinda cool. We made a couple of stops on the road, but for the most part, we just drove by and admired from the car. Then at the end we went to Carmel but the weather was kinda sucky and really overcast near sprinkling at times. We just went into all the small shops and stuff, some of us bought candy at this candy import store. (Mia if you're reading this, me and my friend bought a pack of smarties...uhm yeah they're just M&M's with a harder shell...it wasn't exactly worth it for a $2.00 box of M&M's LoL)

After shopping and stuff, we needed to go back anyways, so we headed out of Carmel and started home, charlie bought the game "rush hour" so they were playing that in the car, we tried one of them, but it was hard, so we decided to forget it and sleep LoL, then we stopped at Applebee's for dinner in gilroy. I had a half sized oriental chicken salad which was perfect since I wasn't that hungry really. :D yeah, so then after we went shopping, I didn't buy anything, but they went into the gap and the billabong outlet, and claire's...yeah...then we left at like 8 something, and we got back to SL at 9:45 or something, and I got back home at 10...overall this was a super great trip :D super duper. LoL :) it definitely should be a tradition :D

Today was a kick back day, I woke up showahed, went to pick up chrizzy, :D

She hung out at my house for the day, which is now much more fun since I got a second controller for my xbox :D and thanks to Kyle, I have a game to play it with :D OOH! AND!!!!!!!! another UBER UBER UBER COOL feature, is if you copy music from a cd onto the xbox hard drive, you can play it during the game! so you can have your own selection playing :D we put the yellowcard cd on, and then selected tracks from the spidy 2 sdtk and switchfoot. :D so freaking cool :D there were also songs already on there that are pretty cool "WU-HA"! by The Dude LoL :D

And then we went to see the Princess Diaries 2 at Bayfair. It was a pretty good movie, I liked both of them a lot actually :) This second one had a lot more random parts in it, seriously hecka random. LoL but still funny :)
Kyle was working so he popped his head in and out for a bit :)

We spend quite a while at Target too, I got these SPF lipsmackers thing, it came with a stretchy band and stuff so I can hook it to my bag or purse :) quite convienent :D yay! only $2 not so bad :) and then I bought a bottle of green nail polish, i wanna see how it looks soon yay :) uhm yeah and then I took chrissy home, and I got home at 9-ish. Ooh also at Target, we also bumped into joey, finsen, jeffery and daniel :) they were looking for bikes for the campus yeah :) go exercising! whoot! :D LoL

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWZA. super wowza.

Let's see okay. Friday we went to Waterworld to celebrate my birthday :D WHOOT! A whole buttload of people came :D and it wouldn't have been the same without them (Tiffany, Benny, Kyle, Chrissy, Janice, Justin, Charlie, Phillip, Finsen, Joey, Robin, Theresa, Jeffery, Elisa, Daniel)
It was a pretty relaxed day, we went on a couple of rides, (gah the waterslides that you don't have the tubes give MAJOR wedgies bah) Spent tons of time in the lazy pool which was super duper friggin frigid, and just kinda hung out. I drove! WHOOT. Super-Duper-Better-Than-A-GPS-System Kyle navigated me and yes everyone got there in one piece LoL I think...:D

We went to Claim Jumpers for dinner with their super duper portions :D and pretty good food, my sandwich was okay....it was "honey chicken" .....I thought it would be a honey sauce, and not just literally honey and chicken LoL but it was still tasty :D

Saturday I went to work that really sucked. I was sick still, and then saturdays' are our busiest days and I felt so miesrable at work It was so hot, and I was running around...:( I just wanted to go home. I got off at 5:30 and then it took me a half hour to drive back home, and the I had to quickly shower and change so I could go to dinner for Benny's Birthday. Elisa came at around 6:30 and then we went to SF, we got to Embarcadero at like 6:50 ish not bad timing, but we weren't sure about the parking and all and exactly how far it was, so we saw parking at pier 27 and we stopped there. mistake. BIG MISTAKE. We looked like insane crazy persons running down sidewalk in flip flops and she was in a skirt oi vey. We started at 27 and it turns out that the restaurant was past 43. (they go by odd numbers, but it was still a really long walk) We got there at 7:35 but it was okay since Tiff said it took about a half hour to get the tables together. Justin, Charlie and Phillip all came late since charlie and phil were in stanford, then they had to pick up justin. Anyways, Joe's Crab Shack, is like a super loud restauruant and they make you do embarrassing things on your birthday, so Benny wouldn't do it by himself and I wouldn't do it by myself, but together, we made complete asses of ourselves LoL. We ran around the restaurant flapping take out boxes like wings LoL it was hilarous :D and I had tons of fun... :D

We then went to Tiff's house to open presents and benny got lots of cool stuff (including a paper pickle from meeeee) :D and yeah....

Sunday I was still sick and wiped from the weekend, so I decided to let elisa go in for me at work, she wanted the hours anyways, so I got to sleep in a little more, and then my mom and sister went to San Francisco to visit my grandparents and my sister drove, so the volvo was here. I got bored, and hungout with Kyle, we suck at thinking of places to go, i.e. that is not my house and that is not his house, so being sponanious, a lightening bolt struck me and I suggested we go to tapioca express, we really didn't want to go back to our houses, and the bummage house (i.e. chrissy's cause yes we DO BUM there) wasn't picking up, so we stuck around tapioca express for like a hour. watching baseball. yes. baseball. I REALLY do not like baseball and here is why.

So we get there, and it was on, it was already at the 12th inning when we got there, so we sat down, and I didn't have really much to say LoL so I was actually watching for a little bit, and then I get on my soap box about how NOTHING happens in baseball, a prime example that day. We sat for the next hour watching NOTHING happen in the game gah it was like the 16th or 17th inning and STILL it was 3-3 nothing happened, I was quite peeved that nothing was happening but i still wanted to wait until something did, but chrissy called back, so we bummed at her house and by the time we got there, the game ended and it was the 18th inning (oakland A's won 6-5 over the Minnesota twins) bah. Okay and then yeah janice came over and we bummed until 10 and yeah. :D

Monday actual birthday WHOOT! I slept in a bit, and then I got up at like 10am to go to work since Danielle made me and Erika (another girl at work whose birthday is the same day) a cake :D So I hung out there and they lit up candles and I got to make a wish, Danielle made some super good cake. gah even though it was chocolate, it was like caramel and had heath candy bar on top :D it was super good.

Then I hung out with Chrissy at her house, and we made some super duper good spaghetti and sausage, and salad and garlic bread yummah! and we watched some tv, Made where that girl goes to school with a buncha super cute guys OMG wow. LoL

That night I went to dinner with my family at Mr. Fongs yummy :D and then my cousin got me this lemon mousse cake and my mom got a loards strawberry ice cream cake :D yummy! :D so yeah, I got a book of maps from my cousin LoL and an anklet from my aunt and other cool stuff from my family members :D
