Plans always change... (Hey, i just heard fireworks outside my window). Pooks, Elg, and Johnny are heading out to some restaurant in Hollywood and then to watch some kinda fireworks display somewhere in the area. I didn't feel like going cuz i feel like crap since i'm sitting here coughing and that in turn is giving me a headache. I guess i'm spending new years with my family this year. Wonder if there's gonna be any new virus releases or dormant virus awakenings tonight. =P Ah well.. what can you do? I could probably make one too if i sat down and really thought about it. JAVA programming.... heh-heh-heh =)
First time all of us are 21... legal in all aspects (and illegal in some =P)... we are doing absolutely nothing for New Years 2002. Ah well... it's not like we normally do anything anyway. I think most of us are planning to stay home. At least i am. Johnny was supposed to go to Vegas but that plan went sour when his friend Thanh changed the plans. =P Sunny is gonna attend a company party and has plans with Minah afterward. I think Elgin is going to a club. Pooks is..... ok, i think it's just me, Johnny, and Pooks that have nothing to do. Well... Three's Company. Guess we'll just chill at my house until the ball drops. It's all good. At least i'm chillin' with a few friends rather than by myself. It's not like New Years is a big thing for me.... now Chinese New Years... heheheh... now THAT is a holiday to celebrate! =D
I wasn't expecting to go out today, so i signed online kinda early. 2pm to be exact. I normally don't sign online that early unless i'm really bored. So yah.. i was REALLLLY bored today. I downloaded a few songs and then Johnny IMed me saying he was bored too. So i went and picked him up and went with me to Office Depot to make some copies for my Dad. We then headed out to the La Puente Best Buy, but when we got there it was closed. =P We ended up going to Circuit City next door. We were getting kinda hungry so we headed down to LA to eat at Farmer Boys. While there, Johnny tried to break his record of stuffing 18 soup crackers in his mouth. He never made it cuz i started making comments about a cop that was there and had said, "Hey Baby" when he walked by our table. Heheheh... at first i thought he was talking to John, but it turns out the cop was talking on his cell. We were just cracking up in the restaurant. Hehe... all in good fun.
Came back, Pooks came over, and we just chilled in Johnny's room and played CS. I guess another "normal" night. Well.. if i don't get to post tomorrow nite due to blogger always dying on holidays....
A big "THANK YOU" to the sib. I am officially sick. Having to take medicine qualifies as being sick. Gonna go take some Robitussin right now...
blah.....
You know the Sav-on's commercial that goes something like.. "You can count on people who care" and "There's a store open 24 hours near you"??? Well.. i found out that's a bunch of BS. First i drove to Rite Aide on Montebello Blvd..... closed... then went to Sav-on next to Schurr... closed.... then went to Albertsons... closed... then went BACK to the Vons next to Rite Aide on Montebello Blvd... EXPENSIVE..and they only had the huge bottle... then went to the Sav-on down on the corner of Montebello and Whittier... closed....then i FINALLY went to the Rite Aide at Atlantic Square which is the closest 24 hour drug store around this godforsaken town, and it was only 11pm. Geeez. All that for Robitussin. FRICK!
On a happier note... Pooks took me to go get a replacement bulb for my busted headlight, so no more worrying about tickets! At least for the time being. =P
Pretty nice night. Not too cold for once. Didn't need my jacket, but it was still nice to have. Too bad it's gonna rain tomorrow. =/ Anywhoo... not much today. Just another dinner and movie with the guys. We ate at El Tepeyac (a mexican restaurant off Potrero) and went to puente to see Not Another Teen Movie. It was STUPID. Funny.... but STUPID. Rent it. Not much else to talk about. Maybe more interesting stuff tomorrow... although i highly doubt it.

Well... i almost didn't come online tonite, err... correction... this morning, due to me being HELLA tired. I'm still pretty damn tired, by the way. I actually woke up before 10am today! Dang, you don't understand. I haven't been up before 12 in the past 3 weeks. Oh, well... i guess it's not too bad considering what me and Johnny were talking about coming back from the theater last nite: basically he said i'm making up for sleep lost last quarter. Hehe... i'm thinking it's more like over compensating for this-coming quarter. I'm seriously scared of the coming winter quarter. Acutally... i don't think i'm over compensating enough =/.
Even though i woke up fairly early today... it wasn't intentional. It was because my sister kept ringing the damn doorbell 20 billion times. Well... not really. More like 2 billion. I coulda swore she said she was leaving for Big Bear at 8am. It turns out my mom did drop off my sister at Christine's house... but she came back because Christine's mom had invited my mom to join the excursion. So the mom comes back.. changes into warmer clothes... the whole caravan comes by with my sister... and the sib rings the damn doorbell................ geez! You get the picture >=( I get up out of bed just in time to find all that stuff out. Couldn't go back to sleep. Blah!
At around 1pm Elgin calls me up from John's house and wants to go to some malls, so i head over. Me, Pooks, John, and Elg end up going to West Covina Mall. Please note: West Co. mall sucks. Don't go there. Then we drive off to the Beverly Center. That sucked too... not because the mall sucks... but because we couldn't afford anything there.
After the famous "rush-hour" traffic LA is known for... Pooks and John went with me to pick up my CoCo Lee album. I'm actually listening to it right now. I don't understand any of it.... but it sounds pretty good so far. Hahaha... i'm on track 11 =). Anyways... it was 7pm and i needed to come home to help my dad cook dinner since mommy and sister wasn't gonna be back till 9:30.
Turns out mom and sib has been back since 6:30. Oh well. I asked them how the trip went. They basically said it was ... to put it nicely... boring. Hahhaa...ofcourse! You didn't ski or snowboard, you barely had a snowball fight. Come on now... gotta use yellow snowballs! Built a half-assed snowman... and above all, it was freaking cold! And to think they asked if i wanted to go before they left. HA! I'm not stupid. =) I basically spent the rest of the night watching Akira. It's an Anime if you don't know. That's pretty much why i'm online so late. I don't intend to stay any longer. I'm so frickin' tired. My vision is starting to blur..... so....... forgive me for not making my blog nice and pretty with links and all the other html stuff........
ok.... that's it................................................shoot me please =X
So here i am... sitting here doing the same thing i do everynight: go online. Not necessarily to chat, since i only talk to maybe about 5 of the 119 people on my buddy list, and not necessarily to blog on my page. No... i just go on because it's a force of habit. Only thing different tonight is that i'm drinking sparkling white grape juice.... oooOOOooOooOoooo. No, not Welch's sparkling white grape juice... Ralph's sparkling white grape juice. Ahhh...the ghettoness of generic brands... lovely.
Anyways... i went out with the guys once again. Guys meaning Johnny and Pooky. It's been like that for a while now. "Guys" meaning the *single* guys, but that's another story within itself =). We met up at John's house and (as usual), wondered what we wanted to do. Johnny's dad needed mouthwash, so we went down to the local Sav-on to pick some up. I started wandering around the store until i looked back toward the pharmacy and saw Katherine. It had completely slipped my mind that she worked there. I walked over and stood there for a couple minutes until i finally caught her eye. Her reaction was, "Oh, what the heck??" which i found hilarious =). The pharmacy was kinda busy so i just waved goodbye and John went to pay for the mouthwash.
At that point we still had not decided on what it was we wanted to do... so i just suggested going to see if i could get the latest CoCo Lee album. They didn't have it at the bookstore where i saw it last, but we went to a different one and they had it on shipment so i prepaid for it. So i got CoCo's latest album and i'm going to go pick it up tomorrow. WHOA... yes, everyone... i bought a CD. The first one in 2 months since Michelle Branch. It's off schedule from my regular 6-month interval of buying a CD. Ok Ok Ok...moving on.... we decided on Shakey's since John was being picky about not wanting Asian, Mexican, or burgers. After that... John just drove us to Tower Records and did some magazine reading. Kinda odd since no one consented to that idea... but at the same time we didn't complain.
At around 10 Pook got needed to go home for whatever reason. So me and John decided to go watch a movie. When we got to Puente, everything was either sold out or we had missed the times. It was either Ali, or Behind Enemy Lines. I heard Behind Enemy Lines was pretty good, plus i had a free movie watcher ticket so we went for that. =) Pretty good movie afterall, but i'd wait for the video... if you like war movies that is.
So that is my day ladies and gents... feel free to IM me if you're online, cuz it's not like i'm going to sleep anytime soon. BTW... the sib is going up to Big Bear tomorrow morning with her friend. So she's gonna go see snow while i'm stuck at home tomorrow. So i'm the only one in my family that hasn't seen real life, honest-to-goodness, snow. How pathetic am i? Very much so? Why, Thank you! =)
Anyways... today was Christmas! Well.. yesterday was. Again... my house doesn't feel very Christmas-y (refer to post 12/24). I opened the one gift that i had at 12 midnite. Yah... didn't get much this year, but then again i wasn't expecting much. Parents have been wutevers about gifts since i was 15. They normally just go out and buy a gift that they have me pick out. Now they just pay me back when i go out and buy whatever i want... ofcourse within reasonable limits. I think i want a spoiler for my car this year... just gotta go out and buy it. Whenever that may be. =P Anyways... it was a book from Kelly. She bought me "The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook". It's a great book... i read the whole thing after i opened it. Now i know how to hot-wire a car .... hehehehe! Check out www.worstcasescenarios.com if you're interested in this book. THANKS KEL! The sib didn't have anything to open, since she opened all of hers the second she got 'em. Hahhaha... sucker!
We did have a home-cooked holiday meal with my Aunt, Uncle, and cousin. They basically came, ate, and left. And that was pretty much it as far as my day went. More tomorrow.
30 minutes until Christmas day. It doesn't even really feel like Christmas. My family didn't put up a tree this year... but then again we haven't put up a tree for a few years now. I think the reason why is due to the fact we don't really have anyplace to put it. The house is so full of furniture, it's hard enough walking around as it is. Eh..it's ok. I only have one gift this year and my sister already opened all hers. I'm actually being patient this year. Normally i'd rip it open the minute i get the gift, but i'm waiting... at least until midnite =P. It's funny how the commercials on TV keep talking about making Christmas wishes come true. I'm not very suprestitious... but i do wish for things sometimes... and hope they come true. Anyways... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I went to Q's in Old Town Pasadena yesterday with Johnny, Pooks, and Elgin. The rain was coming down HARD. I was starting to wonder if it was still a good idea to go, but by the time we got there... the rain had stopped. While getting patted down for weapons, one of the security guards told Elgin he couldn't get in because he didn't meet the dress-code. He was wearing tennis shoes. =P Anyway... so he took Johnny's keys and drove back and said he'd come pick us up when we were done.
I was expecting a dance-club atmosphere, but i was pleasantly surprised. Q's is more of a Restaurant-Bar-Billiards-Dance Club. No smokers! WOOHA! We met up with Johnny's friend Thanh (the birthday boy) and his friends. I wasn't planning on drinking, but the guys bought me a drink... a Midori Sour of all drinks... so i didn't wanna be a punk and push it away. After a while.. Thanh started to tax everyone for drinks. =P So i had a lemon drop with him. After that... he bought everyone a shot of Hennesy XO. Bastard... I DIDN'T WANNA DRINK!!! At least i didn't get messed up. 3 drinks... not too bad i guess. I was done at that point... altho Pooks and Johnny kept taking shots of the Hennesy and the Remy Martin. Damn. All that and Thanh didn't get the waitress' number. Hahah! At about 1:15am we were ready to hit the dancefloor. Me and Pook went down first, but it was so packed all we could do was watch from the outside perimeter. As we started back up the stairs, Johnny and Thanh were coming down... so we followed, but the security guard at the door told us to go back up cuz they were starting to close. Bummer. Elgin came to pick us up.. and we headed back to Johnny's house. It was a pretty fun nite. Would've been more fun to go with some girls since everyone there was taken or already had friends to dance with. Next time i guess.
I think the most intersting thing i did today was get gas for my car. At least it's cheap. $1.13 a gallon for premium isn't bad. Just watch. The gas prices are gonna shoot up and we're gonna freak out again. I also tried to see if the Keyless entry remote Pooky gave me yesterday would work on my car. I found some instructions on PreludeOnline.com and tried to program it myself. Didn't work. I guess it's cuz the remote was originally for his Accord. Oh well. Maybe things will be more interesting tomorrow.

So my day starts again at 11:30am. Finally got my oil changed today. I figured smelling something burning coming from my car isn't exactly good. Since my car is over a thousand miles overdue for an oilchange... hehe. My car is happy again...but now it's hungry. The low-fuel light just came on. Crap... gotta get gas tomorrow. I went to Cerritos mall with Pooks and Johnny today. I picked up a messenger bag from Aeropostale for my sister. They're having a HUGE sale if you're interested. If you don't know... Aero's style is like Abercrombie's.... just not as heavy on the pocketbook. I also got a new CPU fan today. My computer was seriously dying for the past couple days. The new one is REALLY loud tho, but i guess that's cool since the RPM is really high. Keeps my CPU nice and cool.
It's funny how you start running into people you know during the holidays. Everyone is back home from school. I saw Kimie at the mall last week, and just today i saw Lily Lam at the Hat. She looked different, but then again.... a lot of people change when you don't see them every once in a while. She's going to school at UCSD and majoring in Chem. Like WHOA. And get this... she's graduating on time. DUDE. Good job.
I've pulled out my flute a couple times over break. It's so ugly I embarrass myself. That's why I play when no one (or at least I think no one...) can hear. *eek*
I feel rather nauseous right now as well, but I think it's because I'm tired. I remember I used to start feeling sick every day first period junior year. I think nausea is a sign of stress. But I'm not stressed (or at least I don't think I am) I'm just tired. Blogger isn't working. Blogger can kiss it (I don't mean that...I love Blogger...but y'know...)
I feel like crap. In-n-Out and then a round of DDR DO NOT MIX. I wanna puke... but i won't. =X I didn't get anything done today. I just took my sister and my mom to the Puente Hills Mall. Sis wanted to exchange stuffs at Old Navy. I didn't go get my cpu fan yet so i'm on my sister's computer typing this. Damn standard 104-key keyboards. I want my erognomic keyboard =/. I swear... with the amount of time society spends in front of the computer, it's amazing carpal tunnel syndrome isn't found in 5 year olds... at least not to my knowledge. Here's some pretty simple excercises i found on the web. CLICK HERE if CTS concerns you. =P Anyways... i forgot to mention last nite that i got so bored, i pulled out my trumpet and started playing it. I didn't have any sheet music but i was able to play several songs by ear. I played: 2nd & 3rd parts to "Taco Mambo", "Pep Rep", "Go Big Green", the christmas jingle we played during the christmas marching season (some of it), "Hot Cross Buns", "Mary Had a Little Lamb", "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", and some other simple songs and football songs. Not too bad considering i haven't played for about 3 years. Hehe... although i sound horrible. My head hurts.

I'd say it was a pretty productive day. Got most of my shopping done. Need a couple more gifts... and then i gotta wrap everything. Oh shiz...i still gotta get cards!
I got back home around 6-ish, i was hecka tired. Dunno why. I walked into my sister's room and just knocked out for 3 hours on her bed while she was chatting online. I think it's because i've been bumming around ever since i finished school so my laziness has taken over. I told myself that i'd wake up early to go running at least 2-3 times a week. HA! That has yet to happen. Earliest i've woken up since finals week was this past saturday morning. Woke up at 11am. Like WHOA. That's early for me. Damn my lazy butt.
Not very many people to talk to online tonite. Maybe i'll go to bed early! (Yah, right). Although i am in a really good mood, since i got a lot of stuff off my chest. Shopping was one of them. I think i'm gonna get a REALLY good night's rest tonite. =) Anyways... yah... RIGHT ON!
Not a very eventful week even with all my friends out of school ( well..cept Sunny. I think he's off pretty soon ). It was raining pretty hard Friday afternoon. I wasn't planning to go out, but Johnny insisted i go out to USC with him. His sister wanted to go to Disneyland so Johnny was gonna buy tickets at SC. Pook came along for the trip, but it turns out we didn't need to go to SC anymore since Johnny's sister wasn't sure if she wanted to go. We ended up stopping by the Montebello Towne Center. I haven't been there in ages. The mall feels really weird now that we have a Macy's. It just somehow doesn't fit. The Ghettoness of Montebello. Despite the ghettoness... i ran into Kimie inside Macy's. She was shopping with her parents. She gave me a hug but she seemed kinda weirded out... guess it was because of her parents. *shrug* It had stopped raining by the time we met up with the rest of the crew, so we went to Tony Romas in Old Town to eat. Nothing special. Damn... i'm going broke!
Same deal today... just... longer day. Few more interesting things that were worth mentioning. Today was TELE adjustment period. For all you non-UCI people, TELE is the phone system we use for adding/dropping classes. The adjustment period is when those who didn't pay their tuition on time, they get dropped from their classes... which means i get to add! Problem is EVERYONE is trying the same thing. I'm not kidding when i say it took me 20 minutes of dialing, getting a busy signal, and redialing before i got through. Luckily i got the classes i wanted.
Today was also "Manly, install your own car parts day" for us. =P We were installing Sunny's subwoofer in his car and Elgin was installing his new foglights in his. Pook was supposed to install his sub... but we didn't expect to take that long on Sunny's install. They were there since 11am. I came around 3. We ended at 6. We did get everything to work... just didn't get to Pooky's car. Oh well.... next time. At least Sunny's happy. We decided to eat dinner at Hooters in Santa Monica on 3rd Street Promenade. "Is it just me, or do the girls keep getting worse every time we come here?". Haha.. i forgot who said it..but i agree. The Hooters girls didn't look too happy tonite. Even our waitress was wutevers with our order and wasn't being very friendly. She looked kinda mean too. Oh yah...hahah... another flashback to Senior year of H.S.... Pooky and his Poncho's Nightmare recurrence. Damn you guys are nuts with the Hot Sauce. Pooky looked like a waterfall again. Dude... lay off the hot sauce =).
3:35am... tired as hell... why am i not sleeping? *shrug* I'm an internet freak. More tomorrow............z.zzz.z.z..z.z.zzzzzzzzzz

Me and Pooks walked into A&F today at Santa Anita Mall and i saw a T-shirt that said, "Got a Sister?" I looked at Pooks and just started cracking up. That shirt is too perfect for him.

You have an unhealthy obsession with downloading mp3s. I suggest you get help. This may affect school, work, and any future relationships you might have. Admitting you have a problem is the first step to a full recovery. You don't have to go through this alone.

Hey! Ghetto Pico Rivera, Montebello, and Monterey Park was on TV today! We had a car chase running through our towns! It was on channel 9 around 8:30-9:00pm. They finally got the two gang members to lose control of the stolen car and had them crash somewhere near Whittier and Telegraph. It was pretty much in our neck of the woods... they passed by the Montebello Golf Course on Garfield... turned onto i think Riggin... and then onto Atlantic passing The Hat, Tower, and all the other stores over there. =P I've always told myself that if i ever found out i had 12 hours to live... i'd take police on a high-speed chase.. just for the heck of it =).
Anyways... i took my dad down to Kaiser Hospital in LA yesterday as planned, and basically spent the day over there. His appointment was at 1pm so we left the house at 12. I found out why my Dad couldn't drive himself. The doctor didn't want my dad driving after being drugged. The doctor assured me it wouldn't be long and he said we'd be outta there by 2:30pm. HA! Yah, right. I sat there till 4pm. I thought i was smart for bringing my Discman and a whole bunch of my CD's to listen to while waiting. Turns out i'm a freaking retard. I forgot the batteries. So i sat there watching "General Hospital" and i think "One Life to Live". After daytime drama was over... Oprah came on. Oh god. I wanted to shoot myself. Getting a root canal would've been more fun. I was able to pass out in the waiting room for about a half-hour. So i guess that was productive... if you can call sleeping productive.
Today was just another day with the parents. Dad and Mom went with me down to UCI to pay next quarter's tuition. $1300 freaking dollars. Damn. I remember when tuition was only $980. Damn UC Regents...Damn them and their 6-figure yearly incomes... Damn them to hell! That's basically all i did today. Be taxi driver again. More of my boring life tomorrow.
I just remembered when i went to pick up my sister from the Interact social, i was coming down Potrero Grand and at one of the signals, i saw that someone had *strategically* covered up fingers on the pedestrian crossing sign so that when the universal "Don't Walk" symbol came on, it looked like it was giving the finger... Hahahahhaha! I just thought that was hilarious.

Yah.. ok, a lil correction made by Pook regarding yesterday's post... before the comment on me having no life ( which i don't by the way ), i AIM-ed him something along the lines of: "1352 MP3s on my HD = 96:05:11 of music." NO...it's NOT an obsession ( yah..i'm talking to YOU =P ), it's a HOBBY. Anyways... I'm still bored at home. Didn't do anything but shuttle my parents around town today. Tomorrow i gotta take Dad down to Kaiser Hospital on Sunset Blvd. for tests. Hope everything goes well. I'll be there for an estimated 4 hours, so i guess i won't be going shopping again. I better go soon or else i'm gonna be screwed! =X

Very well put by Pooks, considering i didn't do anything the whole day besides going out with him and Elgin to buy Sunny's subwoofer enclosure for his car. Then at 4pm i went to pick up the sibling from Garvey Ranch Park. She was there for an Interact Social today. I didn't mind so much as to going to pick her up since i was just sitting at home not doing anything anyway, but right when i got to Rosemead Blvd. she goes, "Oh shoot, i forgot the cooler!" Lovely. So i make a U-turn and go ALL THE FREAKIN' WAY BACK! Grr.. now i have no gas. Luckily it started to rain after we got back home. I would've been even more pissed if the car got wet since i washed it yesterday, but it didn't =). God i'm so bored!!!
If I were a work of art, I would be Pablo Picasso's Three Musicians.
I am colourful and provoking, always looking to break out of the mould and to pioneer new ways of doing things. I have a jaunty outlook and although I am a bit weird, most people have some idea what I'm about.

The party only included the birthday boy, Pook, Elgin, Minah and her younger sister (Hey Sunny..what was her name again? Dude..i can't say it OR spell it =P), and me. Johnny didn't come out with us since he starts finals this week. He's got a 50 page report due on Wed. Good luck man! Anyways... we had a pretty good time. I got my usual favorite: "the Mile High meatloaf sandwich." No drinks for me, but we did buy Sunny a "Fuzzy Peach" which is basically a "Fuzzy Navel" with Ice Cream... *shrug*. He said it tasted like candy. Guess the alcohol contend wasn't even there. =P. After we had finished eating, Minah and her sister surprised him with a strawberry cake. They were able to get our waitress to bring it out and sing "Happy Birthday" with us. Gifts for Sunny included a Muscle T-shirt and jeans from Abercrombie, a gift card to Banana Republic, and a whoopee cusion from me =D. I had gotten it from Gameworks earlier from finding about 30 tickets by just walking around. Cool huh? Hahha.. it's ok... we'll get Sunny's *real* gift later on.. since we got lazy this year and just basically asked what the designated birthday-boy wanted. Saves us time and saves him from getting a crappy present =). After dinner we just hung out at Gameworks since we couldn't go to Dave & Busters since Minah's sister isn't 21... but mainly because we didn't wanna pay the $3 cover charget per person. =P We were playing games until the place closed (2am). Some interesting information:Pooky and Minah's sister seemed to hit it off quite well tonite. Hmm... not bad. "Just friends for now" is what Pook said, "we plan to have more group outings later." OooooOOOOooooo... hehehe. So we'll see how that goes. After we had circled Irvine Spectrum before leaving, because first of all.. Sunny forgot his *new* phone at Gameworks, and THEN he couldn't find the 5 frwy entrance so he couldn't see that Minah and her sister got back safely, we finally got on the freeway and we were on our way. It felt like a presidential caravan with Sunny and Pook leading in Sunny's Altima, the VIP's in their Altima, and me and Elg in my car. Oh yah.. dammit!!! I found out one of my headlights are out... i just washed my car today too. =( Oh well. We saw the VIP's off the freeway and then Sunny wanted to race. "HA! You think you can defeat ME? I think you wrong....." ( think bad chinese Kung-fu movie English translation accent ). Hmm... 3am... hardly any cars on the freeway... i got one word for you Sunny.... VVVVRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!! Anyways... yah... so now i'm at home, it's 4:50am and i'm hecka tired. Need to go Christmas shopping tomorrow. Argh.. on a Sunday! Dang.. there's so much HTML in this post... =P Think i have enough links?

(Sorry if you're offended that i stole your comic oishiri chan! Just yell at me if you are!) This is too hilarious cuz i can relate to the phrase, "RIGHT ON."

Geez... what a way to start off your first day of winter break. I ALREADY got my final score for psychology. I scored a 37 out of 60.. which means i scored only one point above what i needed to maintain a solid "B" in the entire class on a straight scale. =X Yikes! Well... at least this class is curved so i think i'll be ok. Anyways... i'm a lil down cuz i was expecting a lil better than 37 out of 60.... but i guess i should be happy considering i didn't really study for it =P I'm happy with a "B", i just hope i kicked butt in ICS-21... THAT'S the class i have high hopes for. *crossing fingers* So i guess i still need some luck on my side. =/ Dammit... i feel so dumb =(

well..since the last post didn't publish until just right now... guess there's real no point in wishing me luck, however... if you absolutely must... my last final is tomorrow morning at 10:30am. It's the psychology final so it shouldn't be too bad. Also i'm at the UCI Commons right now studying... so if you're reading this now (it's 4:07pm... i'm probably gonna be here for the next few hours... don't feel like driving through traffic)...

Women are not evil. They just seem that way because they know how to apes starts here--->stop pulling my hair kelly!! *ouchh* that hurted =*(<---apes ends here manipulate people...sheer brilliance.
Yes I pulled Apes hair. I'm still a nice person though :)
Ahhh... Midnite screams. I remember my freshman days back in room #206 - Snowbourn. My room was right next to the balcony on the second floor so i was able to run out and see the action almost right away. At first i had no idea what the heck was going on my first week of finals my freshman year (Fall Quarter - Dec. '98). When i finally figured it out... i screamed too. It felt good. The screams went on for the next couple of nites, but started to die down as the week came to a close. Guess a lot of people had left since they were done. Didn't see any streakers. I missed it =/ Darn. Winter Quarter finals week (March '99) was the same deal... cept this one was WAY more interesting. The first nite opened up with screams and streakers. One guy went butt nekkid. Second nite... oooohhh.. lordy lord.. water balloons, shaving cream balloons, video cameras, and a whooooole lotta people. Seemed like EVERYONE came out to see the streakers. This time there were two. Same guy. Everyone booo-ed. And then came out the Girl... BUTT NEKKID. Cheers came from everywhere... and then the mayhem begins. Apparently someone yelled "whore" and "slut" while she streaked so when she came back out fully dressed..she confronted the culprits. Exchange of a few *choice* words and the in the face i-dare-you-to-thow-the-first-punch stares, but *luckily* (Darn) the supervisor came out and stopped everything. The following 3 nites consisted of cops and supervisors all over the place waiting for something to happen. We weren't allowed to come out or anything. If we did they questioned us. No fun. Spring Quarter (June '99) was the same deal. Cops..but not as much. There were some screams..but no streakers. Darn. Oh well. It was fun. I actually feel like screaming now. I'm stressed out and my back hurts. Darn.

Apparently my mom doesn't follow convention when it comes to "house-hold gourmet." I woke up to some mouth-watering smells coming from the kitchen. My room is actually the Den/Study/Guest/Library room... or whatever you wanna call it... so it's outside next to the living room... which is in turn next to the kitchen. Turns out my sister was making omletts! By the time i got up and washed my face, she was done and my mom started making them... however... coming back to the "not following convention"... my mom made some weird omlett-looking thing. It looked more like scrambled eggs than an omlett. =/ You see.. mommy likes to think ahead. In her mind.. "why make an omlett one at a time, when i can just do it all at once so i can save time, and since it looks like scrambled eggs... i can make fried rice later!" Apparently she doesn't understand that when you want an omlett... you want an omlett.. not some jumbled up mush. Oh well... i ended up making a sandwich outta that mush. It still tasted ok. =P Nothing else really happened today, other than my ICS-21 review session from 3-6pm. I came straight home cuz i was starving ( guess that mush sandwich didn't fill me up ). Good timing too cuz i got home right before it started to rain! WooHA.. gotchu all in check! Hehe.. i like that line. If you don't kno where that came from... it's from Busta Rhymes' "Woo Ha!" *shrug* I just like quoting it. Anyways... first final tomorrow.. i'm outs.

The Fall quarter came to an official close yesterday. That means the freshmen class have just completed their first quarter at college. Yay for you! What does the end of Fall quarter mean to me? Another quarter down... 5 (hopefully) more to go in this hell-hole. Hehe... maybe i'm being a lil too anti-UCI right now... considering IT IS FINALS WEEK! Dammit... i hate tests. I freak when i have to sit there trying to access files from my head, especially when the file i need at a particular moment doesn't *exist*. =/ Gosh.. i wish i was done already...i wish i was on Christmas break already....... I wish i was a little bit taller, i wish i was a baller, i wish i had a girl who look good, i would call her, i wish i had a rabbit in a hat with a bat, and a six-four Impala.......
