When Stephanie Came...
which was really frigging awesome! We did lots of hookah (you can see them in the pics) and we drove down to Southern California to see friends. It was really fun and nice. We stayed at my aunt's house, then spent a night at Dan's apt. Then we stopped by CSUN to check its campus out. We're considering about transferring there, but not for sure...But if that happens, it'd be all GREAT! Stephanie also took some other pictures, but i'll have to wait for them to be developed to show you some more. I hope you guys are enjoying ur spring break! :D ( our vacation ) | | Wednesday, September 21st, 2005 | | 10:43 am |

I Owe You This
August has been the busiest and craziest month ever of the year for me. I got so many things that arent done and need to be immediately! I'm not very thrilled with my accounts. I got some negatives and fees. I wont be able to get some more money until this Friday with my paycheck. I still havent gotten my books for my classes for tomorrow. Hopefully, i can get them before my classes start. Taking Health and Wellness, Criminology, Acting 1, and Triomogetry. Lots of readings to do this semester! My mom and sister are in Greek. Am thinking about giving them a call later tonight when it'd be morning over there. :) I hope they are taking many pictures, souveniors, and other things to share with us! Had 2 friends come over here. Alaina stayed here for 5 days, i think. Anyways, it was nice to see her again. Eventually, we caught our news up and i wish her good luck to go to RIT. Sarah is another friend, who came, too. I drove all the way down to SF (wasted about 2 hours being in the wrong Wharf town), then it was so great to see her again! We had some starbucks, drove up back to Chico. We played pokers and she only stayed for a night, because her mom and she were to go to Oregon to see other family members. I wish her good luck at Gallaudet! :) Yesterday, Dylan, his family, and I all went down to SF (again) for Dylan's godbrother, Bobby's, wedding. A word to describe to this occassion: W O W! The wedding was taken at Noami (the bride)'s parents' home, which looked like a lovely and small resort. The dressings and flowers were so irressible! Dont forget to mention about the champagnes thingy, too, hehe! Dylan and I danced some dances, then we went back to hotel. I just got back, so... look like i will have to clean up the whole apartment and do laundries, too. I'm so glad to see my babies again! I always get worried everytime i left the place, trying to think they will be okay when i come back. :) I'll update more later, i still have so much things to do. Try to go on some more trips to wherever you'll have fun before going back to school! Hugs! | | Friday, July 1st, 2005 | | 5:55 pm |
TGIF...
That's RIGHT! THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY! Because i just received this awesome news from my landlord, saying that dont have to pay 960 dollars for the rent, but 600 dollars instead for this month! 360 dollars is a lot of money and i'm just surprised that they dont ask for it. Whee!!! Today at work wasnt so bad. Actually, it was fast. My manager was so funny today, i told her a joke about what would happen if a cop pulled you over, you'd have to follow his instructions to pass a ticket. "Point to a rock," he would say. So my manager pointed at a rock and than I said that cop would say, "Point to a star." Neverthelessly, she did that, too! I said, "Now do it several times with the exact same instructions." She pointed, pointed, and pointed. All the other barasitas were laughing and said, "You'd get a ticket for being a rockstar!" Eventually, the manager laughed and got it. Hehe. :) Dylan and I just rent 2 movies called Are We There Yet and Bigger Than the SKy. Hope they are good movies, if so, i'll tell you later anyway. :) Cheer!

Sisters, girlfriends, daughters.... A young wife sat on a sofa in on a hot humid day, drinking iced tea and visiting with her Mother. As they talked about life, about marriage, about the responsibilities of life and the obligations of adulthood, the mother clinked the ice cubes in her glass thoughtfully and turned a clear, sober glance upon her daughter. "Don't forget your girlfriends," she advised, swirling the tea leaves to the bottom of her glass. "They'll be more important as you get older. No matter how much you love your husband, no matter how much you love the children you'll have, you are still going to need girlfriends. Remember to go places with them now and then; do things with them. And remember that "girlfriends" are not only your friends, but your sisters, your daughters, and other relatives too. You'll need other women. Women always do." "What a funny piece of advice,' the young woman thought. 'Haven't I just gotten married? Haven't I just joined the couple-world? I'm now a married woman, for goodness sake, a grownup, not a young girl who needs girlfriends! Surely my husband and the family we'll start will be all I need to make my life worthwhile!' But she listened to her Mother. She kept contact with her girlfriends and made more each year. As the years tumbled by, one after another, she gradually came to understand that her Mom really knew what she was talking about. As time and nature work their changes and their mysteries upon a woman, girlfriends are the mainstays of her life. After 50 years of living in this world, here is what she learned: Times passes. Life happens. Distance separates. Children grow up. Love waxes and wanes. Hearts break. Careers end. Jobs come and go. Parents die. Colleagues forget favors. Men don't call when they say they will. BUT girlfriends are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between you. A girlfriend is never farther away than needing her can reach. When you have to walk that lonesome valley, and you have to walk it for yourself, your girlfriends will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on, praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on your behalf, and waiting with open arms at the valley's end. Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you. Or come in and carry you out. My mother, sisters, aunts, nieces, cousins, daughters and friends bless my life! The world wouldn't be the same without them, and neither would I. When we began this adventure called womanhood, we had no idea of the incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead. Nor did we know how much we would need each other. Every day, we need each other still. Pass this on to the women who help make your life work. I just did. | | Friday, April 22nd, 2005 | | 6:27 pm |

I kept wondering what it'd happen when i see her for the first time in a long time! I just couldnt wait to have this wonderful conversation with her once again! I havent seen her for a long time, since my last semester at gallaudet. *whimpers* Ya-hoo, she's gonna be here!!! *shrieks* And for abi... it will be 6 more days til her ass is mine, too!

Take the quiz: "What Kinda Kiss R U?"
Tender KissThe tender kiss is the feeling where you can be anywhere and show your feelings. man, i'd love to be topless with a jean on, making out with dylan on the whitest sand under a glowing moon... just like this picture. *sighs* that's too fucking good to be true. so sexy and very inspiring.

Peek-a-BOO!
testing. testing. testing. I just bought a digital camera and wanted to see if it worked? This is Clementine peeking out of her mini cube-homie. Current Mood: hopeful | | 3:06 pm |
I just found out that one person that i dislike has a lj, too. So, fellows, i'm gonna put my personal friends only as to update. And frankly, i'm tired of anonymous comments, because they are wasting both theirs and mine's time. | | Wednesday, January 12th, 2005 | | 5:49 pm |
Secrets
Dylan and i went to subway's today for lunch. We decided to eat there instead of having the foods to go. We chatted, and somehow i asked him if he still held some secrets from me, because i still know i have one and that one i never spoke of to anyone ever in my life since that secret happened. He said, "Yea i do have some secrets." What he told me was very shocked, but i still feel like it's not enough to make me feeling better about my secret, because it is verrry horrible and unstandable. I told him that he should be thankful that he doesnt have any secrets that are just the same level as mine's. He asked my secret was. Feeling so vulnerablely, I looked up to his eyes, starting to speak, but hestiated very quickly. I trust him, the one who holds my heart...I thought. I sighed and fought myself revealing this horrible hideously secret. He was surprised at first, but told me that it's okay, and that i was very young at that time to understand completely. I told him that what he has told me really made it up for me. I'm glad to said that aloud to him, because holding it inside me for many years had been really making it too intense for me to handle anymore. It's finally out and i feel so damn good about that. After revealing it to him, I feel so much in love with him now, i kept kissing him constantly. I'm really grateful to know him. I really am. :) Off to another subject, i got another new chinchilla. It's a silver white female one! About time i got it! I had been waiting too long. I knew Clementine was really lonely in her cage. Snowball and Pikchu already have each other to cuddle and play with. Dylan and I decided to name it Shiva, the goddess character from FF10. It suits her all wonderful! :) she's so big, much bigger than Clementine! She's doing just fine now. I'm really happy now. :) will talk more later. Current Mood: cheerful | | 5:43 pm |
A Fun Game For You, My Friend (stolen from moelza)
you can ask me seven questions, anything. NO matter how personal, dirty, private or random - i have to answer them honestly. in return, you have to post this message in your own LJ and you have to answer the questions that are asked to you. Current Mood: curious | | 1:21 am |
AHHH-YOOO! :0)
Seem liked i had no motivation to update lately, blah. But i'm in the MOOD now, yupper! :D I'd love to fill you guys in details about what have been happening in the past one week. Remember the interview at Starbuck's? It occurred to them that they forgot about me, so they made another one for me on the next Tuesday. BOY! I couldnt believe it! I waited for that damn interview for more than 3 weeks and they FORGOT it. *sighs* i truly am tired of waiting. But strangely, i took it unpersonally (until now, heh). Good news, when i told Kat (Dylan's mama) about it, she said that i can contact with Norcal (a service for Deaf people with interpreters, etc) and that i could get paid one hundred dollars per a hour in training! Holy smokin', that's frigging great! :D Also, they would make a call with Starbuck, explaining them about ada act (it would increase the opportunity of taking this job greatly!). I already met the manager and she was very nice to me and told me straightly that she would love to have me working with them. So, i'm really hoping that i'd get this job. *prays to God* I helped Dylan doing the job-hunts. He applied to Zumiez's (they are hiring for assistant managers) and Movie Theater 8 (hiring, too, plus Dylan knows the manager personally). He was looking very nice...he wore the navy blue buttoned t-shirt. Mmm! :) I hope he would wear it more often, because heck he looks so good in it! Heh. I bought him another 2 new buttoned shirts, too! *thumbs up* I cant wait to snowboard again, i went snowboarding last Friday at nighttime, it was tons of fun! It has had lots of powders of snow everywhere, so i was having fun, going down faster that i would, because a fall would be soft. I just couldnt believe it that both of the boys (dylan n chris) are THAT expert! They went beyondly high in the air and are very capable of doing much of those wicked tricks. :) -To add this: Dylan was soo sweet when he bought me a snowboard google, because i never had one for myself (i borrowed all the time) while i was in the bathroom. I insisted that i didnt need it and that i would be fine. He said nope, it's already bought and it belongs to you now. I was like aww...gave him a kiss. He really cares about me and i really love him for that. Mwah, bebe.I kept wondering when Dylan and I would be available to visit Michele and Cv in Washington. Things kept conflicting with my plans, arg! For this royaltly stupid example, a forgotten interview. Anyway... Also, i'm so excited that Abi and Stephanie (maybe Beth and Daniel?) might come here for their spring break! I already made a list of several things we could do; Shopping in San Francisco, a visit to Great America (an amusement park), visiting my family in Reno (shoppings and a hugeass Barnes & Nobles for Stephanie to enjoy gathering these anime books, heh!), and Redding. That's for it now, but i'm still thinking for some more. I have to go back to Reno to get the tags and license plate for the car, it expires on 26th on this month. I hope i could get there with no conflicts like snow storms, icy roads, etc. I'll write more later. I feel like i'm writing too much now. I'm gonna play FF10. Adios! Current Mood: busy | | Thursday, January 6th, 2005 | | 9:11 pm |
Little Black Book
is VERY GOOD!!! You all should watch it! :D :D :D When i came back from Arcata, i wasnt in the mood to clean, but knew i had to. So i walked into the apt, everything inside was already cleaned! OH YEA, i thought! Of course, Sam and Kyla cleaned, because they didnt work today. So it's all good. Umm... couldnt think of anything else to write, except that i'm thinking alot about Washington and having friends coming over for the spring break. Hopefully all of things would work out. That would be very lovely! :D Ummm...4 more days til interview at Starbuck's, i hope i get this job, because i need it bad. Paying 500 dollars monthly to mom is A LOT! Remember, i would have to pay for the gas, food, and bills, so that would take me over at least 700 dollars every month. I pray to God that he would let me have it. LoL, i'm being funny... just busted myself talking more when i just stated that i couldnt think of writing any other things. Now i cannot think, hehe! Later. :) Current Mood: bored | | Wednesday, January 5th, 2005 | | 11:45 pm |
Tonight...
is a night full of none things to do. So i decided to rent 3 movies; little black book, king arthur (director's cut), and westender. they all should be very good. Am not looking forward to tomorrow, because we have to take a friend back home in Arcata (3 hours away from here) than come back home. 6 hours of driving... eek! At least i'll get a double choco chip cream frappunico on the way, heh! I just got an email from dad. WOW, I gotta say. He did something that he never did-- asking me questions, like how are you doing? how's school? when are you going to finish school? will you come and visit us? do you still go to church? do you need more of my helps? etc. I feel so strange when he did that, but i really like it tho. It's nice. Of course, i replied him back... because i wanted to keep in touch with my sister. I wrote her 3 letters, but still havent gotten anything from her. He said that i would get a letter from her soon. HOPEFULLY! :D i just cannot wait to get that hugeass couch out of the living room, it's taking too much of the spaces here. Once it's out, i'm gonna buy a huge rug and a new coffeetable. This apt definitely needs to be spiced up! :D i'm gonna watch some movies now! mwah! Current Mood: relaxed | | 11:43 pm |
