So i'm finally starting to feel better. Good thing too... just in time for Saturday =)
I went to my 9am-12pm class today for a group presentation that i couldn't miss. It went well, but my stomach hurt a little. I never intended to stay for the rest of the day since my TA for my ICS class allowed me to turn in the homework via e-mail, so i just left around 12 and ditched my 3pm and my 6pm (which i'm supposed to be at right this very second).
I made a quick stop at Best Buy to pick up a fuse holder and a fuse for my subs. I was expecting worse.... spent about $25 for both and also picked up Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon since it was only $15. I wanted the movie for a long time... just never went to go get it. Now that makes a grand total of two (2) DVD's in my collection. =P
Came home and called Pooks up for some guidance on this stereo stuff. Installed it... he left... i started washing the car. Wow, she's so pretty now =) All clean! I took pictures too... LOL! Yes.. i'm obsessed... i love my car.
More later....

I got so hungry that i finally decided to eat something. It got to the point where i didn't even care if i was nauseated by the thought of eating.
Sometimes the simple things in life are the most fulfilling. I found bread, turkey bologna, mayo, and mustard. Woohoo! Sandwich! OMG that was the BEST sandwich EVER! I just hope my stomach holds it =X So far so good.
Dangit i have so much homework to do =\

Damn i feel like sh*t right now.
Woke up this morning with a stomach ache and didn't feel like eating much. Mommy made me a bowl of noodles and i only ate a little of that with a couple pieces of Char-Siu. I got ready for school and started my 45 min+ drive down to Costa Mesa. About half way there, i get a call from Vi, a fellow tutor and said she had a flat tire and asked if i could help her out. When i got to the elementary school, Vi was already there and the entire car (Mercedes C230) was tilted. I took a look and started to jack up the car to change it. What i didn't know was that mercedes mounts the rim on with a long bolt, so you'd have to feel for the hole to screw on the bolt. That took me about 45 minutes to do. Plus the pavement was wet so i got really dirty. Today was picture day too =P. After about 15 minutes of trying to mount the full size spare.... i realize the damn spare is flat too. Worse than the one that was already on there. Fricken hell. So i have to remount the original tire... which took me another 30 min. So i basically used up all my energy and i had to do my teaching project today too. I had the kids make a chinese dancing dragon. I was super tired though so i just kinda half-assed my way through teaching them. They made some pretty nice ones, despite the fact i was lazy.
By 5:30 i was dead tired. I did not wanna do anything, but i drove Vi to the Shell station down the street and filled her tire with air before she drove back to UCI.
I fought traffic for about an hour, half dozing off, and i decided to go to the 99 cents store to see if they had any candy that makes noise. It's for my Education project. When i tried to get out of the car, my legs almost gave out cuz i was feeling dizzy and tired and just blah. When i walked into the store, everyone started staring at me cuz i looked like a stoner. I walked down the candy isle and didn't find anything, so i left. When i got back into the car i didn't move for about 5-10 minutes cuz i really felt like sh*t.
After driving home, i walked in and collapsed onto the floor of my room for about 10-20 minutes. I tried to eat some Raisin Bran and a chicken pot pie, but it only made me more sick. I passed out on my bed for about 3 hours after that.
I woke up at 9pm and was able to watch Smallville, which was really good, and then Sar called me and told her about my sh*tty day.
So yah.... i feel a lil better now, but my day is still sh*t. I have Sar on the phone right this moment, but she's not saying anything cuz she's still sleepy =P Oh well... we all need our rest. I do too.

So it's been a solid week since i last posted. It's not like you missed much =P
The only thing worth mentioning about school is that i got 40/50 on my ICS104 midterm. Not too shabby i guess.
Friday nite was spent playing basketball with the guys and then a quick run to the local 7-eleven for some slurpees.
Saturday i got my hair cut in the morning (after about a month...geez i was shaggy) and Sar came by afterwards to eat lunch with me, Mommy, and Sis. Came back and hit up the mall with Sar and Sis where Sar picked up some kitchen ware and Sis bought a Card Captor wall scroll (kids... *rolls eyes* =P). Came back and ate a lil before me, Sar, and Kel went to hear the LA Philharmonic play Gustav Holst's "The Planets". It was really fun since i actually played the movements Mars: The Bringer of War and Jupiter: The Bringer of Jollity while i was in my Junior HS band. Afterwards Sar drove us back to her place and cooked us curry (which was really good BTW despite it being runny!).
Sunday morning i woke up and went to play basketball with the entire team. Played for about 3 hours and came home to eat and shower before heading out to Sar's apartment to pick up my glasses and drive her out to Santa Monica so she could do some interviews for her homework assignment. After we were done we came back to do a lil studying before i had to go home.
Today wasn't much different from any other Monday. Class for 4 hours straight and then a meeting with my group and then the long drive home.
Next week we start the basketball league. Hopefully we'll do better this time around. GO RAYGUNS!
Here's the entire Planets Suite in MIDI format. It won't take more than 3 minutes to download on a 56k modem cuz it is only a MIDI file. CLICK HERE!

Woke up this morning kinda early, but it was for a good cause. Went out to have lunch with my babe after her midterm. We went to Sunny's hood (K-town... j/k dude) and got some Korean BBQ. I got chicken and Sar got Shrimp. Sar had to go to work at 2pm, although she was a little late since the food took a while to come out.
I dropped by Circuit City to see if i could find some cd's i liked. While walking from the parking lot, i noticed out of the corner of my eye, this minivan coming. I thought it was gonna stop, but kept coming. I was like... wth??? but kept walking striaight without looking. Then the van honked. For a split second i was like... ok... wtf is your problem, but right after, someone yelled, "Hello Damon!" in a very japanese accent =) Turns out it was Sar's parents =P. Gave a quick hello and went on with my business.
I picked up two cd's today (yah can you believe it?) Last time i bought a cd was when the Eminem Show came out =P. I picked up Missy Elliot's new album, and Aaliyah's Greatest Hits cuz it included a DVD with music videos. Not bad, not bad.
Geez my bank account is running thin. I only have a lil over $100!!! Dang... good thing i got paid for Chinese New Year. Still not enough for a body kit tho, *sigh*. Oh well. After i find a job =)

So here's the breakdown of my Valentine's Day....
The original plan was for us to spend Vday on Saturday cuz both of us were busy till 7pm and it would be a lil late for dinner and we would be both tired, but after a very good idea from Kel, i thought i'd see how good i was at putting together a surprise.
I finished class at 4 and i drove over to the flower shop to pick up my order for a dozen longstem roses. I drove out to USC... hit a little bit of traffic, but it wasn't much. I got there around 5:30 and went out to grab a quick bite with her roommate Serena and her bf Steven before Sar got off work at 7.
7 came around and i call her to see if she's on her way home to the apartment. Turns out she decides to go shopping at the Town Center cuz she was bummed that she wasn't gonna spend Vday with her new boyfriend =). So bummed she was complaining to everyone weeks before =P. Since she was gonna be so close to home, i had to make up a story about having an ODE meeting (Economics Honors Club) till 9pm and that i'd be too tired. Kinda bummed her out even more, but i had to do it to get her back to the apartment.
So she doesn't get back until around 10 and i'm on the phone with her since 9:15 and have to lie to her again about driving home. I hid in one of her roommates rooms and talked to her on the cell until she walked into her room where i placed a big teddy bear and the roses on it's lap. While she was still trying to figure out what it was on her chair since she hadn't turned on the light, I snuck into the hallway and told her on the phone to turn around, and when she did... she screamed and gave me the biggest hug and still couldn't believe i was there. I also got her a "custom-made" Swarovsky Crystal bracelet. Pink and white with pearls. Very nice =)
Pretty good, huh?
We finished off the night with Papa John's pizza and chicken strips (more like nuggets) and some quality alone time =) And to top it off, she got me the new Ninja Turtles Action figures! Woohoo! =)
So tonite (2/15), we went out to Louise's Trattoria in Old Town Pasadena for dinner and then to the ice skating rink for some *duh* skating, and called it a nite.
I know it's late but I'll bet you've been wanting to know about the Happy Tree Friends.

Entries have been scarce. Sorry. So much stuff has been going on that i'm still trying to sort things out. Been spending a lot of time with Sar and if i have any more free time, i most likely spend that time with the guys playing bball.
I've been meaning to get my hair cut again since the front is freakishly long (by my standards), but i just haven't had the time to actually sit down and get it cut.
My car has been dirty for the past.... 4-5 weeks? I dunno. It's dirty. REALLY dirty. I also need new tires, brake pads, and an alignment.
I have a midterm for my ICS104 - Human-Computer Interaction class tomorrow (today) at 3pm. I haven't been keeping up with the reading since the first day of school. That means i had 175 pages to catch up on. At this point i've read about 110. I guess that's an improvement =P I just hope i don't fail tomorrow.
My Education 160 class piled on the homework for this weekend. I'm still not done. I have two more assignments i need to finish before class tomorrow. I dunno if that's gonna be feasible.
Sorry if this entry seems a lil..... umm... monotonous? Without feeling? I dunno... i'm tired. I severely need a vacation.
