Black Friday

So not sleeping until 2am today, I woke up at 6am because Ben miscalled me while stepping on his phone. So I stayed up until now without any sleep in between, and I got to say, this is quite tiring.

So checking on facebook what everyone was up to, some of my friends lined up in front of staples and PacSun to get good deals on clothes and laptops, i wonder if it was worth it? Sitting there looking at the news of people parking in places where no car should be parked in front of Walmart and people running in and out with big brown boxes.

After a couple of hours, My mom, my sis, and I decided to go shopping for minor things since we already got pretty recent computers and t.v. We went first to Office Depot where we got my orange sony earbuds and my sister's 8gb flashdrive. The line wasn't that long since it was like 8-9am in the morning, while all the computers are gone. Next we went to Staples were my sis got a laptop cooler and there was practically no line there, but shit was on the ground and laptops where gone. Last we went to Citadel Cathedral Outlet mall where there was a lot of 50% off everything in store til' ___ time and by one get second one 50% off. I got my orange DC zip hoodie and black jeans. My sis got a hoodie as well, i dont know how to describe it, but i think it looks cool with a mosaic of blue, greens and yellow. We also bought a wind breaker jacket for my dad since he's too much of a conservative spender to buy a new one.

Went to Carl's Jr. grabbed some burgers to eat and went home.

I was planning to go to Glendale to see the stuff there but it was about 2-3pm in the afternoon and my mom has been driving for a while and everyone's pretty tired so I'm guessing we're going to go tomorrow since most of the major department stores has 2 day sales.

What I wanted to look for was a PSP that was used for cheap but I couldn't find, let alone see any, anywhere.

While home, we tallied up how much we spent today, I believe the total was around $160 for everything, which I thought wasn't that bad compared to last year's $700.

switched into my PJ's and sat here in front of my monitor until now checking up on facebook, talking on AIM and gaming.

Did I mention the 3 hour study of SAT? that was so fun =_=". My dad thinks there is a line between passing and failing the SAT's. I mean there is but there's only a score. He then hovered over me for about an hour to make sure I was really studying...

blah blah blah.

My karma/luck has been so bad lately, like i told leega. Anyways yea.

Everything will be fine soon.

"to have known someone who can level you with her eyes..."
-good will hunting

-Thanks-

Things that I'm not thankful for:

The Grading System( report cards, SAT's, ACT, etc.)
Spam/Junk Mail (all of it)
Money (and everything you have ruined)
Prejudice(for judging people because they're different)
Abuse

For everything else, theres maste- just kidding!
For everything else I'm content with

Before I sleep.

Before my eyes give away from the shot of the licorice tasting medicine, I think i'll blog until then.

Grades, not looking so good... goddamn, end of story.

I've been trying to talk to her personally for a while now, but the bashful nature that is her be preventing us from doing that. Seeing as how everyone is so open these past few weeks there would be no surprise if there was one. Having conversation about other people's love life got me wonder: "wow." I don't know how this girl got to this point but she's a party animal, and a heart breaker at one point I bet. Even though it made me flinch a little, it had no significant effect upon me since it IS high school after all. The birth place of rumors, dramas, and everything in between. Then again, it's these things that put people closer together, whether it is more of the friendship direction or closer emotionally. Maybe that's why they created high school reunions, maybe because since high school is real life in a nut shell that they want to compare it to the real life adults go through.
I may not be the most fun of people when it comes to things I really believe in, since I am 80% of the time being non-serious, if I want something I am determine to get it with the additive amount of procrastination. However I do go for quality then quantity, so I dont care how long it takes as long as the customer is happy.

going on a tangent and away from the subject above: can you alumnis please tell me exactly what I have to do for the next 4 -5 months? because EOP is killing me on the deadline and I didn't know what to right and I didn't realize that the EOP for UC's is just one application, while CSU's are required to have 2 letters of recommendations and your tax returns.

back to the subject, yea... I dont get life. But as of right now, the life everyone is accustom to is that everything is based off first impressions.

I think life should just be one huge learning experience, dont care about grades, or strict standards, but what works, work and learning how it works is fine, but dont butcher it. Dont take the fun out of the equation, because in one form or another, fun is always there.

Concentration

Nujabes makes my epiphany gore on my thoughts...

I'm like the elementary school problem that makes calculus students over think,
I am of solid with ink.
All it takes is a question and i'll open like a book, but if you don't start reading, the middle and end would be of no use telling you.

If you're going to play the sport, come with dignity, sportsmanship, and humaneness...

"Nut up or Shut up" (that's going to stick with me for a while)

So

Start of B-term and I need to Ace this whole term because i need to make up for my A-term mess due to mr. mendelsohn screwing me over and being an asshole about all of this...

I dont know exactly what my grades are but i know I got a "C" for kemples and a "B" in Reinharts and an "A" in Van Baal, I'm just hoping for the worst in english because yea... low expectations can be a good thing in times like these.

Still reading pride and prejudice, I'm on chapter 19. I still enjoy the book.

I'm in FML-mode right now with a little HC after-memory still in my head(thats the only thing that makes me smile contently) :)

Kevin Vicente popped my racquet so I think I'm going to string it tomorrow after school

One Piece came out early this week so I was moderately happy to see that show up

Pride and Prejudice chpt 1 -16

So far I like the book haha. I especially like Mr. Bennett in the story, he reminds me of Mr. Reimer. Straight forward with an under-humor where you have to pay attention to get his funnies haha.

btw. there are alot of bitches/assholes in the story... goddamn.

Homecoming <3

Enjoy the music :]


It was be the best night of my life with the most beautiful girl in the world :) After the visit to Janice's house and teaching her little brother (Matthew) a thing or two about playing the Wii and the akward check-in's my troubles just floated away like a loose paper caught in an updraft.

So I started with my day planning everything out so that it would go smoothly. The torturous wait for the hand striking 4, but it was worth it. I met up with Suk in front of Gates elementary school getting ready to ride the dash to chinatown and then changing to the #48 metro to Janice's house. There I got ready first because, knowing girls, they'll take some time and I don't blame them. It was a fun situation with Janice's little brother because her family thought I didn't understand cantonese until I answered back in the same dialect haha. Matthew didn't want to leave the wii and go shower, because he would go into the bathroom, and come out naked(yea how's it hanging).

After the girls got ready(Suk, Liz, Vera, Sandy and Janice)and I had the honor to take their group photo, Mrs.Li gave us a ride to school and the car ride there consisted of over-the-radio singing and random thoughts.

Arriving at homecoming I had my backpack and my tennis sweater on because my parents knew I was going to homecoming, but they didn't know the outfit I was going to wear. They wanted me to go in my government outfit(i know...). So after I met up with the guys n' girls (btw, you guys looked so nice) I went to go check-in my luggage. I immediately went into Sidney-meeting mode, haha I went back and forth looking for ms.Vu.

I dont know whether or not I should guide you readers into the next 3 hours of my life, but all I gotta say is:

She's a lovely dancer, I couldn't dance for my life, breakdance battle, pictures and congo line.

again, for putting up with me two times in a row

thank you i'll never forget this day :)

Day off & rule #17

So today, was my day off from school because of Veteran's day and I much appreciate that because I had a load of homework to research and type up that I couldn't do it all in the regular time I usually have.

government homework and I had to research Obama's plans for health care reform and I don't know how to present it but I think i'll just wing it with the notes I took down today.

English homework, was a hassle. so little to read, so much to type up.

thinking about homecoming :] because its almost here and I can't wait, the only night for a long time that I can be myself that late haha, i know it sounds weird but iono, just a thought.

Other then the above, I just sat in front of my flat monitor computer screen listening to John Mayer and playing games like any other guy with no life. Eating bun mai thats left over from the day before and going on facebook as usual.

Did I mention I watched Zombieland? That movie was fun, but sad to say, I would still perfer shaun of the dead over zombieland even though emma stone did looked attractive. Jesse Eisenberg made a good main character for that movie haha.

i will not be attending VHHS' homecoming football game because i would rather chill in the asian room then to sit in the freezing beachers at night to watch our teach lose... and if we do win, damn, how much did the other team slack off? I've seen our football players that are still on the team... bunch of immature boys...

rule # 17: be a hero
rule # 32: enjoy the little things

top half outfit

haha!


haha! x 2


fail x3 why? b/c it was 1 size too large and I hate looking sloppy in nice occasions

Homecoming pt. 2 [update]

Well, I convinced my dad that I could to go to homecoming and he was super skeptical about it, thanks to the stupid media. He told me the story about the girl that got raped and how no one who was standing around helped her. Of course the lecture too... telling me that its too late at night and that it's at school...

my excuses: my friends collaborated into buying me a homecoming ticket that's nonrefundable and they really wanted me to go

Suk's mom will be driving me up there and ceejay's mom is going to drive me home...

-FUCK- my dad told me he'll teach me how to dance... the cha cha... FML.

anyways yea... my friends at the only reason I'm still in this so I thank you guys for going into this.

Thanks to my uptight, rod-in-the-butt dad, I can't go to prom because this is my only chance I can do this... so sorry guys. no prom. :[

and I guess I have to thank my sister for not bringing up that I was going to go to HC with a girl.

[update] yea... I edited it. HC not prom, but I probably still can't go to prom as of this point, but hopefully I can get good enough grades and etc etc to make my dad proud and yea... hopefully do something with my social life.

the one time I get to go on a date with a girl, he ruins it for me... and almost crushed it...

So yea, I'll stop here and go to sleep... blog out.

Congrats VHHS Girl's tennis team and HomeComing

YES! the girls won their first round city championship game against Marshall High School (4-3) with Amy Nam and Ellen Pan clutching their tie breaker 7-2. Anne and Liz won 6-6, 6-2. Samantha won and Carol won, I don't know their scores but who cares, its time to celebrate for a day!
That's right, a day
because we're going up against Taft High school Friday~
good luck you you girls!!

I promised Sandy that I will train with her tomorrow for Friday's game.


Anyways, yea... if you guys haven't heard, uh... I got a date with Sidney Vu to homecoming on the 14th >_<" she hasn't decided the color of her dress and I think we both need a ride of some sort. I think I'll be telling my parents I'll be going to homecoming with "friends". If not my excuse will be "I'm going to my friends birthday party". Thanks in advance to Ryan N. for being my last resort ride home. I have to shop secretly and do a lot of things secretly about this for the next few days so yea...fml why can't my parents be cool about things like this?!

They are always too nosy when it comes to these types of events "who are you going with?" "is she your girlfriend?" "does she know you?" "you can dance?!" etc... all those quotes has been used by them btw. mostly during the time when my facebook was on because I wanted to get a cup of apple juice and my mom passed by my computer screen....

anyways, my personal statement is looking worse and worse every time I correct it =/
