So, this week has been a bit of a doozy. Friday, I was supposed to hang out with someone, but she flaked. Bit bummed cause I missed out on a good Vietnamese French lunch..but so goes life sometimes. I hung out with Elisa :) who also happened to be left to hang dry since no one called her back LoL. So we decided to go shopping, we went to Stoneridge and I found a b-day card for Tiff and Elisa found a jacket for her brother...just not in the size necessary. That size was in Emeryville. So! off to Emeryville. We picked up the sized jacket that was good for her brother, I found the final part to Tiffany's gift and Elisa tried on the most amazing pair of shoes...which she didn't buy :( But maybe one day, she will :) And ate at the Elephant Bar, muy bueno. although the food took a while. Sorry Elisa!!! Next time we will go to Hometown Buffet!!! you can get your mashed potatoes and fried chicken...

Saturday, also a bit of a bummer theme to it seeing as how everyone except for Benny and me bailed on Tiffany's birthday. Got to Tiffany's house at 11am or so, then she opened her gift, from me anyways :) Elisa came by to drop off her gift, which Tiffany then brought with her to the movies :D. And then we headed to Union City. Got there noon-ish, bought the tickets to the 1:40 showing, oddly enough saw my cousin in line LoL, then we went to go have burgers and fries at In N Out :D. Ate there and walked back at 1:00...good idea to buy tickets way early...bad idea not to get to the theater way early. LoL We had to wait in line to get in and we were near the end, but we got seats together and not way way in the back, I'd say they were good seats. I snuck in the left over french fries in my bag...which now has a nice "french fry scent" to it :D can't buy that at Kragen! LoL

Then, highly satisfied by the movie, we went back home :) I went to dinner for my Aunt's birthday where my family had a rousing discussion about my henna tattoo... apparently there's not much other news in the world. LoL

The school week was laaaaaame. Had a paper due on thursday..and the second midterm for anthro, and then I had 2 music tests on thursday also. I gave up reading the books, I forgot how enjoyable these classes are. I couldn't "forget the reading (or homework)" in calculus, chem or physics, although in music and anthro, I basically can and feel moderately confident after taking the exams. Music class is such a pushover though, dude, it's 50 multiple choice questions about 50% or so is not at all in the book or in the lectures. It is however in the previous edition of the book, which they don't sell anymore and why he still uses the tests for that book? cause he's too frickin lazy to make new ones. So it doesn't matter how much you read you still won't find half the answers in the book or lectures. This is why he gives copious amounts of extra credit....whatever, good thing this isn't a prerequisite for any other class, I'm pretty sure I'll get an A in this one. I just won't learn anything.

This weekend I'm going to see pirates again on saturday :) My dad bought tickets for a fundraiser and they were only $5 for the movie, popcorn and soda. I think they made a mistake on the tickets though cause it says "voucher valid for 32oz soda and 85oz popcorn" ...85 oz is approximately 5.3lbs...of popcorn. that's a lot. LoL

Then Sunday I'm getting an early birthday gift from my cousin. She bought tickets for me to go to this Chinese Acrobat thing at the Symphony Hall....and then monday again arugh. although since my music teacher is cutting out a week early, it'll be my last week of music class LoL...the dude is such a flake.

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Face Down

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Face Down


Title: Face Down
Artist: The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Album: RJA
Year: 2006

Hey girl you know you drive me crazy
one look puts the rhythm in my hand.
Still I'll never understand why you hang around
I see what's going down.

Cover up with make up in the mirror
tell yourself it's never gonna happen again
you cry alone and then he swears he loves you.

Do you feel like a man
when you push her around?
Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?
Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end
as your lies crumble down, a new life she has found.

A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect
every action in this world will bear a consequence
If you wade around forever you will surely drown
I see what's going down.

I see the way you go and say you're right again,
say you're right again
heed my lecture

Do you feel like a man
when you push her around?
Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?
Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end
as your lies crumble down a new life she has.

One day she will tell you that she has had enough
it's coming 'round again.
(repeat)

Do you feel like a man, when you push her around?
Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?
Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end
as your lies crumble down, a new life she has.

Face down in the dirt she says, "this doesn't hurt" she says, "I finally had enough."

Face down in the dirt she says, "this doesn't hurt" she says, "I finally had enough."

Beef of the Day

Alright, so I'm reading the chapters for Anthropology and one of the tables has a list of organisms and the number of chromosomes in them. Next to the common name of organism, they have the scientific name of it, i.e.
  • Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes)
  • Dog (Canis familiaris)
  • Corn (Zea mays)
  • Gorilla (Gorilla gorilla)


...and therefore I frown. GORILLA GORILLA?!?!?!? What the heck kinda scientific name is that? did they just get tired and was like...eh let's be eddy the echo. :( How much more freakin redundant can you get?!?!?! Pin Identificus Numberous Numberous. :( they totally got gipped in the scientific name.

Random other updates, uhm back from NY, started back at summmer school. Things seem to be going well...I feel gipped with my music class. The instructor is nice and all, but he goes off topic a lot and talks long times about stuff that isn't going to be on the test and isn't in the book. And then it's already just a 6 week class, but he's cutting out the last week to teach some Jazz camp, so he's making it a 5 week class. It's an 8 am class and he tells us to get there on time, he usually by 8:05...and then spends 10 minutes puttering around getting papers ready or whatever....so we don't start until like 8:15 and then he lets us out kinda early and the day we had a test, it took definitely less than an hour, but he let us go afterwards...so we lost an hour that day. He doesn't seem to be moving anyfaster so I don't think we're going to make up that last week.

Anthro...I've had at least 3 I can think of now, Indian teachers and they've all had accents, but none quite like the one I have now. He speaks really soft too, but at least I feel like I'm sorta learning something...it just feels good to have easy classes. Finally a kick back! :)

uhm. the end I suppose
(Yay to Joe Thornton for winning MVP :D) uhm. the end for real.

Float On

This is my favorite song to listen to when I'm feeling bummed out, but this video to go with it just makes it all that much better. I love the whole thing. My favorite part though is when he's dancing with the shoes. LoL. most awesome!

Davis

Yesterday, went to Davis with Elisa :D Yay for Elisa for driving :) So we got there, with basically no getting lost LoL :) We're getting better!!! Went to the all you can eat sushi place there. Which was good, although we failed at eating compared to some other tables LoL. Really bizarre, we went up to get some food and then came back and there was this dirty eaten off plate on our table!... it was nasty and not ours. :(

It was quite toasty there that day, like 90F, not my exact favorite type of weather, but there was a breeze and stuff so it could have been worse. After we ate, we met up with Benny and we went bowling! :) Eh I suck at bowling LoL but Elisa got into a pattern, gutter ball, then strike! LoL That was really fun, and it wasn't too crowded. But near the end there was this really bizarre guy who kept on bugging us, it was weird at first and then it just got to be like harassment. But it was near the end the last like 15 minutes or so. So it didn't rain too much on our fun, but, yeah that was weird.

Then we went to go and get some jamba juice, I got the sixteen ounce, benny got the orignal and elisa got the power. LoL I can't believe that anyone could drink that much in one sitting. It was good and nice and cool in that warm weather. Then we went to the apartment that Benny shares with 4 other roomates. We played a bit of guitar hero. LoL I totally wish that was on xbox too, I'd definitely get it. Then Jeffery came back and we hung out a bit and went to dinner at Pluto's. It was good a salad and sandwich place. Their salads are massive. I probably should have gotten a side, but whatever. it was still good. and then, what else ,but MORE food. Lol We went to a crepe place and had dessert crepes. I had a caramel apple one, Elisa had a chocolate banana and Benny had a strawberry chocolate one. I liked mine, good stuff :) an excessive amount of whipped cream LoL

After that, we went to the apartment and watched a bit of tv, a tennis match and then Elisa drove home. Good day, good day.

Cut my hair today...its shorter than I thought it'd be. But hm, still long enough to tie back which is good or else there would be the horrific time of reliving middle school. gah. New look before vacation. It'll be alright LoL TIME TO WAX!

I am so spastic right now. LoL Oh yeah, and Happy 060606 666!!!!

Maria's backyard=most awesome place ever. It's like eating outdoors at a bistro, without the annoying other people. She had like jazz music playing, and a swinging chair/bench thingie, and it was just the most comfortable place. ahhhh. Plus the food. totally awesome burgers, and spaghetti :D and of course the pork skewers. LoL of which Charlie had 1,892 of them. Totally awesome, she also had a "Happy" Birthday cake LoL from Loards, and this flan type of thing was had like 700% of your daily recommended allowence of cholesterol, but tasted soooooo gooooood! :) Maria's parties are always the most awesome cause she is the most awesome! :) YAY for Maria!

Today was a bummer day, totally got up on the wrong side of the bed. Was in a sucky mood for no reason, but washed my car and my dad's car. Made ice cream, and started watching a movie about pigeons. Bizarro day.
