cali cali cali cali cali

Man, Cali was just legendary. I miss everything already!!! T___T

Song of the trip for me would have to be...





The guys HATED it but T and I looooved it. We heard it inside the Abercrombie & Fitch Kids store and it was so catchy!

But yeah. I REALLY miss Cali T_T In-n-Out was awesome. BEST fast food hamburgers EVER. You guys should all go. Then, our accommodations at the Residence Inn at the Marriott was AMAZING. A bi-level suite complete with a king size bed downstairs, a queen size bed upstairs, two full baths, a complete kitchen, three TVs and a sofa bed n__n It was just EXTREMEEEEEEE!!!! Finally, although it seemed sketchy at first, our rental van was pretty good as well. It had A/C so we didn't die in the heat and it fit all of us xD;

Our activities consisted of endless UNO games, chilling and squeezing in the guys' beds xD, STAPLES CENTREE (<3 Lakers. the area smelled like shit though), Six Flags: Magic Mountain (X2 = XTREEEEEEME and Goliath = LOLOLOLOL), Inception (we always keep getting screwed over whenever we tried watching it here in Vancouver -____- ), The Expendables (LOLOLOL. Shit plot but the action, violence, gore and lame jokes made up for it), shopping, Laguna Beach (shitty bitch. shittier Japanese food), basic Hollywood and Kodak Theatre, PINKBERRYYYY, house hopping, GOOD FOOD (put on like, 5lbs @___@), Robek's Juice for breakfast, and many trips to the same mall xD; We did many more things but those were the highlights =]

Oh, and I can't forget. We missed our last connecting flight from Seattle to Bellingham on the way home (wtf right? LOL) Such a fun experience but I wouldn't have had it any other way nor spent it with other people <3

TEAM MUFUCKA FTW.

Florida/Bahamas Vacation pt7 [CONCLUDING]

And now, the concluding chapter of my vacation!


Day 8 - jul5
9:48am
After a 3hr sleeping trip last night from Fort Lauderdale back to my aunt's house, I just crashed. Not just me but I think the rest of my fam as well. We were just sooo tired @@

Oh! So...after eating dinner, we walked around then since we were on international waters ;) A Pina Colada and a Bahama Mama baby :p They tasted okay. The Pina Colada was beginning to taste really bitter towards the end since I think that the rum settled towards the bottom. After that, my stomach was really full of liquids so I couldn't enjoy the Bahama Mama as much. It was pretty yummy though and I didn't get tipsy at all. n_n training from those two seshes with my bro and his friends.

After all that, we just crashed at our cabin and tried to sleep. Well, my brother and I tried to. My dad slept and my mom was in and out. Then, the wait time for us to get out seemed like foreverrrrr. Stupid customs and border protection -___-

I seem to be having DLS and youth fam bam related dreams lately. Awww...I just miss them is all.

Last-minute packing to go back home na. Aww...it's been a pretty good vacation. Stressful but fun at times :o


10:11am
My sister is being left behind since she doesn't have her Permanent Resident's Card yet. It's probably in our mailbox now.

I received a random text from a Vancouver number and it was from someone that I didn't know. It said something about not enough money and not being able to go. I freaked out and searched desperately for who it might be since it could be someone going on the California trip in August!! But it wasn't. They texted again a minute later saying it was to the wrong number. I wonder who it was. Definitely a girl, for sure. Hmmmmmmm...

1:08pm
Sitting here in the Melbourne International Airport, we're waiting for our flight going to Charlotte, North Carolina. Thank goodness for wi-fi, I was able to check twitter, formspring, Xenophase and my e-mail. Man, so much drama on Xenophase n_n I miss my youth fam bam and I missed outtt!

As our vacation ends, I'm excited. California in August and Victoria as well. This will be a costly, but fun, summer :)

I'm planning to get back into RF again to hopefully spend more time with -censored- and possibly meet new friends. Possible UBC classmates? :D This might actually be a good thing!

3:48pm
Charlotte airport now. Man, we got off at an E gate and we had to walk alllll the way to an A gate and they're on opposite sides of the airport. That's so ridiculous! Imagine hauling a backpack, a rolly bag and another bag on the rolly bag for that long. It must have been a 20 minute walk.


5:42pm
Just finished eating dinner at chili's too. Soooo full! Chicken fajitas and two mugs of mango iced tea (US style) and some chicken buffalo wings. n_n

I have already realized it but I just wanna state it. I eat alot. Like actually.

Checking my phone, I noticed that I have a missed call from BMW. O.o I wonder why she called me.

8:11pm (Texas time)
Houston, Texas. Wow. Houston, Texas. Dang (yes, that's a name) lives here still. I think. Uhm, yeah...we had some history when I was 12, 13ish and we planned out how I'm going to live there with him and everything. Theeeen he disappeared, reappeared two years later and tells me that he never really liked me, as in like like, in the first place. It kinda feels awk being here and the possibility of seeing him, despite it being 0%, or even just being in the same city as him. Eep. Ohhh the adventures of a cheap traveller.

11:44pm (Vancouver time)
Hello Vancouver. How I've missed you <3

The flight wasn't too bad. My brother paid $6 for TV for 4hours and 45minutes. We watched Alice in Wonderland (the latest version) and alternated between Constantine and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Unfortunately, I was too sleepy and couldn't finish PotC.


jul9
12:15am
The journey doesn't end until I'm home! Hahahaha. Sitting here at YVR, I REALLY miss Vancouver :( I miss seeing all the Asians and the dark olive green colours of the airport and the ability to text my friends without having to pay 55cents extra! Hahaha. Strangely enough, I think that I've formed a liking to black boys during this trip :p

12:27am
Even though it's 15degrees, it feels nice. It's a nice cool and not terrible at all. Ahhh. It definitely feels nice :)



That's all folks. I hope you enjoyed reading them, although despite being huge walls of text xD! Next up would be for me to finish the manga features aaaand do a post on my graduation so watch out for those! =)

Florida/Bahamas Vacation pt6

I'll save the finale for last :D!

Day 7 - jul4
10:16am
Woke up around 8 since my parents told us that we had to be ready by 9 for this tour. We've been sitting here for around 30mins now and the transportation that was supposed to be included with the tour that we signed up for isn't here yet at all. I'm starting to think that either...
Also in other news, I texted -censored- last night saying that I miss him so much and I do :( He replied saying to just enjoy my trip. He won't have to worry since I am enjoying my trip :)
a) we got here too late
b) the tour company is late
c) scam

Boooo.

In other news, kuya W is back in Vancouver. Awwww...I miss the youth :(

10:39am
Finally on the bus for our tours and this bus is ghetto. Two-seater on the right side and one-seater on the left. Then, attached to the two-seater is this folding seat and this bus sure is full. Sitting next to a super sweaty, most likely drunk or at least intoxicated, white man, it's pretty nast. Then his friend is cracking up jokes. luuuulz. Sarcastic or not, it's pretty hilair.

10:51am
looooool. My dad with his cowboy hat and wrinkled forehead looks so cute. xD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4:08pm
We're finally on the boat! Time to go back to Florida then go back to Vancouver the day after. Wooooh.

The Bahamas isn't actually all that great. It's nice, I'll admit, but the people here are so hellbent on tourism, tourists and trying to con people out of their money as much as they can that it takes away from the true beauty of the country and island itself. Quite disappointing really.

Florida/Bahamas Vacation pt3

Day 4 - jul1
7:52am
Freaking hell D: It's so early and they say that it's already afternoon =_= Eyebags are huuuuge. I can feeeeeeel them.

9:03am
Woooh. Off to return the rental car and then to the Kennedy Space Center! Wooooooh. My kuya (big brother in Tagalog) is driving my aunt's car for now :p Anyway, he made a good observation. The houses and stuff look so stereotypically American. Each one has those mailboxes out on the front lawn and each house has a front lawn and back yard with older cars n_n It's rather interesting actually.

11:29am
Here at Kennedy Space Cetnre, I'm conducting a travel video experience of my travels to Mars! It's pretty funny :P

12:23pm
Wooooooooow. Talk about otakus. After seeing the VAB (Vehicle Assembly Building), the first thoughts that come into the minds of my brother and I include: "Imagine if an Evangelion was revealed!" or "What if an Evangelion was inside?" and "What if they find Evangelions on Mars?" tsk tsk tsk.

In other news, someone special to me seems to be with me everywhere and it includs Florida. I'm not sure why they used that code for it but they did. [censored] !!! Hahahahaha. Although now fully accurate and similar to their RF ign, it's VERY close. Took a picture just for them :)

12:50pm
JFK looks like Steve Hicks. LOL.

1:18pm
It's actually getting cold inside these airconditioned areas n_n Lunch time at the Moon Rock Cafe!

3:29pm
We're on our way back now and boy, is it hot in this car or what! We didn't get to go to all that we wanted to but it's okay. My dad said that it's because we didn't leave early enough. I don't really mind but that's pretty mean :( Oh well.

In terms of fam issues, my sister was being a real bitch earlier. She said that we were thinking of making her look greedy by taking pictures only with the camera that I'm usually bringing around. I said that we weren't and asked her where she got that idea from or who told her. She replied by telling me that, "Obviously, nobody would say anything," and I was just so mad. Freaking hell =_= like,  what the fuck? Is she THAT paranoid? =___=

7:45pm
Eating dinner at my aunt's house with her 3rd husband but without her. I rather feel bad for this man since he's alone most of the day. It's kinda awkward but then it isn't at the same time. I don't know o_O

Key Lime Pie isn't as good as I thought it'd be. It's too sweet :( it's like a sweetened version of the cake that Sergio's mom made for Valeria, except on Placebo.

9:40pm
I'm about to go to bed now since we're leaving at 4am tomorrow which means that I have to wake up at around 3-3:30am. In Vancouver time...
sleep = 6:40pm
wake up = 12-12:30am
leave = 1am
So this would be like a nap :P In any case, I swear R called me! He says no and I think he's been telling people but my caller id will prove it! It's really weird :/ but this is good because then a certain person will be turned off by the way I'm acting now (I hope) and I'll be inclined to stop liking said person. It's weird though since I feel like I'm in love with someone else already and I've begun liking this person. I don't know. Maybe it's just admiration, similar to what Tiffany had :o Admiration for the person who I'm hoping will be turned off by my attitude, not the latter person. Okaaaaay, getting off-topic again.

Uhm, my aunt has a dog, two birds, two chickens and a goldfish (I think) and each one has a peculiarity or interesting story in their own way.

dog = His name is Chico or Chito and he's a 4-month old Dachshund. He's very friendly and hyper x) He also bit off the wire cord of my aunt's cassette tape player LOL. He drinks water from the hose instead of his water bowl. I actually feel bad for this dog since he doesn't look like he's receiving much love :(

two birds = I think that they're supposed to be love birds but they act far from it. They don't sit next to each other that much AT ALL.

two chickens = My aunt said that once, she ran out of chicken feed so she fed them dog food and they laid two eggs the same day each. LOL. They're also fat :P

goldfish = It lives in a bowl with two shells and a real plant overflowing on top. Apparently, my aunt doesn't give it anything to eat and it somehow survived on it's own. I just thought that that's weird.

I watched an old mystery/cop-ish type movie earlier. It was really weird. This lady said she didn't think her husband would commit suicide but you find out in the end that he does. Apparently, he's "gay" and he couldn't live with it. He also killed one gay person and he was responsibly for the death of a gay mutilator somehow. It was REALLY weird <_<;;

Florida/Bahamas Vacation pt2

Day 3 - jun30
9:31am
Check out day for us but not quite yet. We're going to go hit up the nearest flea market to try and "milk" our stay here in Orlando. I wish we could have stayed an extra day longer so we could have went to Disneyland but it's okay. Universal Studios was definitely worth it :D Breakfast was the same but I think that I was really full from last night so I didn't get to eat much breakfast @@ Strangely enough, I dreamed of drinking milk and it caused me to have a craving for milk. I think that my body was telling me that it's in need of calcium.


10:04am
Eurgh. Up-side to a nurse sister = help in Biology. Down-side = nasty body facts. She told me about how when some guys are ill, their balls become the size of an orange. The big ones. Eurgh.


11:14am
Eating lunch at a diner now. It's like one of those typical diners you see in movies. Maybe not the silver trailer but the whole speaking accent and interaction and everything. It's pretty exciting x) I ordered a Texas Cheesesteak Melt and a coke with cherry flavour :o The drink is pretty yummy.


We were at the flea market just before this and I couldn't find a pasalubong (souvenirs. stuff you bring back from trips, etc. in Tagalog) for the youth :( It's pissing me off :(


11:42am
There's a chili's across the street D: I want to go eat there! One day, I'll eat at a full-sized, actual chili's restaurant. Stupid The Office. lol. Influence me to no end -o-


2:54pm
Sitting at a bathroom stall here in Walmart near my aunt's place, I have to poo :( My stomach is hurting and it's pissing the shit out of me, literally.


3:46pm
We're now at my aunt's house in Palm Bay. We rented a car and it took us around an hour to find it. Then, we chilled at Walmart abit since we were early. My aunt's husband, according to my brother, sounds like Yoda from Star Wars. luuulz.


5:50pm
Sitting here @ Capt. Hiram's eating dinner. Looks really yum yum and it's sea side, or rather, waterfront since it's right beside a river and not a sea :) My brother ordered a beer and he got id'd. lulz. He does look pretty young :p I also made a note to make sure that if I ordered iced tea, that itd' be unsweeted - or at least the non-unsweetened kind that the US usually does not serve. So from remembering this fact, I now have some raspberry iced tea. Not that bad but I'd prefer the cherry coke to the raspberry iced tea :p I plan to get some broiled fish, maybe cajun style with rice x) yum!


7:28pm
Man, I'm sitting here at the very back of an SUV next to my sister with my mother, father and brother in front of us. Now, in an SUV or a van, there's usually only one set of ventilation openings for the AC so the people up front and at the back often end up fighting between who gets what vent. In the Philippines mission trip last year, I went with some church youth and there was this one instance where L managed to sit on the front-er area of the back and pointed to all the vents to himself. The girls at the back, including me, yelled at him. It was really funny xD This similar situation is happening between my brother and I except it isn't as funny or dramatic. But still, it's reminding me of my youth and I miss them :(


10:00pm
Re-watching my debut again, it makes me miss P-Dawg :p silly boy. He said he'll take me to Miami, Florida one day but I can't really trust him when he says those things. It's too far off in the future. Plus, there was this one time when he said he'll take me somewhere that same week but he never did o.O It's okay. I don't mind. Anyway, I'm excited to talk to him again soon when I get back home. I'm actually not allowed to talk to him but meh. He isn't a bad person. He just rolls with a sketchy crowd and has a far-from-perfect past - and I mean far (or so I heard). But I really don't mind. He's a genuinely nice guy. Anyway, this really isn't trip related. I just got reminded of him n_n

Florida/Bahamas Vacation pt1

Hey guys! I'm back from vacation and I have two major events to blog about. My graduation and my vacation. I'll share my vacation first since I kept a nikki (diary for those of you who don't know. Mirai Nikki reference =P) all throughout. I want to upload it from my phone to this blog but coming up with this web page on my phone took forever. My thoughts, added stuff, translations, etc. are in italics =) Also, I'll break it up if the entry begins to get too long =P I realized that Day 3 is HUGE. Anyway, here goes!

Day 1 - jun28
12:15pm (Minneapolis time)
It's like fucking Mission Mexico! Exact same gate and a chili's too! With a 1hr wait in between the connecting flights xD

McD's has better kids meal toys =_=


Day 2 - jun29
9:25am (Orlando time)
Too hot. My mom made me wear sneakers :( Still so full from last night's dinner at Texas de Brazil @@! Sleeping was okay. Putol-putol (choppy in Tagalog) since it was hot and I was wearing only undies and a shirt :/ boooooo.

Man, I miss school so much already (it seems) that I even had a dream about it and how a normal day is like ._. Also, I was singing our grad song in the taxi on the way back from the restaurant and I started tearing up. I cried abit but not that much but I was still really sad.

wtf @ R. Calling me while I'm here. arghh

11:45am
Our first ride was Terminator 2. Not really a ride but more of a 3d experience. It was pretty fun :)

Oops. I forgot to write throughout this whole thing that we went to Universal Studios in Florida. ^^;;

1:25pm
Krustyland and MIB Alien Attack followed. Luckily for us, the lines aren't that long. Krustyland was similar to T2 except not 3d and the kart moved more. MIB was like the Disneyland Toy Story ride [in Hong Kong] where you get on a kart and shoot stuff :p I prevailed with 172k points xD Now in line for Jaws. We had some turkey leg and lots to drink. It's actually really hot. I hope to change later on into a spaghetti strap @@

1:42pm
Okay, it's been less than 20mins but I just HAVE to write this. Okay so in Math 12, I learned about sine and cosine waves. Now, the line in the inner area of Jaws does that snakey thing, to try and get as many people stuck in live/space/etc., and my brother pointed out that we only did one round and the first thought to come to my mind was "omg. He's right! We just went through one sine wave." Then, I thought of how there's the "30mins from here" sign to indicate the wait time from a specific point in the line and began wondering that maybe, by using sine waves and trigonometry, that that's how they calculated it. Then I started wondering how long it took us to get through one "sine wave" in this line and thought of the pi/period/b formula and the graph outline for a formula for a modified sine wave -____- Wow.

4:44pm
Now we're on the other side, the Island of Adventures and we're lining up for the newest and main attraction: Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. It says 90 minute wait n_n I sure do hope that it isn't! I was just outside a minute ago but now I'm in.

5:44pm
wooh. Just got out. It was pretty sweet but could have been better. But still pretty good. The whole wait though was amazing in itself. The inside of the castle was amazing, astounding, outrageous and very detailed. It was sooo beautiful and like, everything was just crazy! I loooooooove the inside. I wish I could have taken a picture but it's okay. The Hogwarts castle is something I definitely won't forget. <3

7:51pm
Dinner time! We pretty much went through all that we wanted to so my fam is good. Painful feet but it was fun, nonetheless. The Spider-man ride was pretty good. Similar to the HP one except it had some 3d stuff :) I bought a Hulk doll and Hulk keychain cause it was sooo cute! I'll give RdC the Hulk keychain since she has "HULKmode" moments :P I also got to see NBA City Restaurant earlier. My kuya bought me a wristband w/ Kobe's jersey. I'll end up using it as an accessory. I was planning to give it to a youth fam member but my bro paid for the wristband so I better not. Oh! And after HP, we got some Butterbeer xD It was REALLY sweet but what do you expect? It's butterscotch based :p Now, we be eating at Latin Quarter Restaurant. I hope it's yummy!

6.14.2010

Wow..seriously?! I'm such a pig =__=

Okay so Saturday..I had like, 3 birthday parties to attend =_=  Then today, I went to eat at Thai Garden with my fam after watching the NBA playoffs ._. Sad LA lost but they'll come back in home court! =D So here's a debriefing of Saturday:

Lunch: All-You-Can-Eat @ Kingsway Sushi [12-2PM]
WOW. All you can eat Japanese overload much?! Crazyyyyyy! It was a birthday party for these two little cute kiddies. Two sisters, one turned 6 and the other turned 4. SOOO cute! x) Their birthday cake was to die for. The parents got it from this cupcake place so yeah. Cream cheese frosting in between and a perfect buttercream frosting. Normally, I hate buttercream icing/frosting cause it's too heavy and think and just gross =/ But this time, it was perrrrrrfect!

Dinner: Home party @ Surrey [7-8:30PM]
Okay so this one was pretty boring =( I didn't eat that much since I was still so full from the day before AND lunch @_@ Also, I wasn't too fond of their family because they kinda seem nosy to me =/ I just really wanted to get out. Luckily, my youth fam bam saved me just in time! Thanks to my dad for being so nice about it =)

Late night: Home party @ Langley [9:30-11:30PM]
One of my youth fam had her birthday last week and we went to her house and celebrated along with her family. We were pretty late but we still managed to be there and not be TOO late. We bought 20 ice cream sandwiches and 20 candles and then we stacked them in a pyramid of 6,5,4,3,2 and yeah. Douche cake apparently o_O But yeah, it was fun =)

Late LAATE night: Boston Pizza's @ Surrey [11:30PM-1:15PM]
We left her house with everyone that came and met up with this other guy at BP's. Apparently, he was really hungry so yeah. Not many people ate. L beside me bought some Pizza Bread. C to L's right bought some NY style cheesecake with raspberry sauce. Yum yum. Had a bite of it =P Then N (the hungry guy) had some Chicken Thai Bites and some pasta dish. RdC had something...totally didn't pay attention and then R had some Apple Crisp dessert. Anyway, while they were eating, W and I were playing Jenga. It got pretty heated. Like, we had 4 or 5 single blocks in a row n_n It was funny too cause I used my long nails to hammer at some blocks wahahhahaha. Then it fell on him. We played again with 3 people this time and the tower collapsed on W. H and I won =D

And yeah. C drove me home. Poor dude was so tired that he wasn't tired at all @_@; I owe him big time. In any case, I'll give profiles of my friends in a post sooner or later =) They're all very cool people!

6.12.2010

Can I eat anymore?! -__-

So...another eating post. Talk about crazy haha. I do have pictures but I'm too lazy to upload them D: Okay so tonight, I chilled with the youth fam bam again. We were gonna do Korean BBQ at this place near Coquitlam Centre but they doubled the prices since I was last there =_= Pissed me off. Anyway, we ended up at ASAHI in Port Coquitlam beside the 7-11. All the guys and I went with the all-you-can-eat while these four other girls went with the usual chicken teriyaki (seriously guys? EXPAND YOUR PALATES. FUCK D: there's other things than chicken teriyaki =__= ) Yep. All-you-can-eat Japanese.

At the end, this guy named JR mixed his over wasabi'd soy sauce with the ginger that was not touched and the raining mound of wasabi on this huuuge plate where all the makis were placed (the restaurant really piled high on the garnish n_n ) and I ended up daring R to eat a part of it. JR got him to eat a teeny piece but I called him a pussy when he refused to eat an even bigger portion and he ended up eating it. Crazy boy hahahaha. n_n;;

We had slurpees afterwards cause the waitress couldn't hear my voice and we were all really thirsty by the time we left =( Then we chilled at M's place cause it was nearby and we played some CoD4, took pics on M's iMac and made some videos. JR and L passed out hahahaha xD I managed to stay up with W and R was half and half. Our hosts M and IA HAD to stay awake of course but yeah. ORP came in somewhere with her two cousins. Kinda awk. Didn't really talk to her <_<; But yeah...

Cost around $24 tonight. Pretty good. Just that my stomach is soo full and it's gurgling and whatnot @_@; I did not even feel like this last week after that large BP pizza. The efff?

Just got back from eating out with the youth fam bam. They came over and we had practice since we're performing tomorrow at another church. Started around 8PM and ended around 10PM then we went out to eat at Boston Pizza which lead to my now, 3-month pregnant look-alike stomach -o-;

So, 11 of us (originally 13 but 2 left) were sitting there wondering what to eat then this conversation came up across the table.

R: Dude, I should order a large pizza.
W: You totes should dude! But you probs can't finish it.
I: Are you kidding me? He ate a large piece of steak AND finished off J's wings two weeks ago. He can finish it.
W: Dude, did you know in sushi, he can eat $23 worth?!
I: Pshh. $23? That's not alot. Pshhh.
W: Oh yeah?
I: Yeah. Y'know what, I'll order one large pizza too.
W: Okay. It's a competition then between R and I.
R: WHAT?!

Then yeah. We had more back and forths then I eventually got persuaded into doing it.

Guess who won?

:D

6/12 slices for me.
9/12 slices for R.

But R gave up.

So I win! :D

Yeah. That's actually really gross. I don't know if guys are turned off by that or if they like girls who can eat a lot <_<; Yeah. LOL. Add another 5 lbs. to the already 10 lbs. that I gained this past few months -___-;

Anyway, I love my youth fam bam =)


Coming up soon...

Spring break already! One week of happiness. Then next week is Mission Mexico!

My plans for Spring Break so far:
Monday - UBC with Ivan
Tuesday - Photoshoot with Harvey
Wednesday - UBC with Ivan in the daytime, Cotillion Practice at night
Thursday - none
Friday - UBC with Ivan

Somewhere in there, I'll be packing for Mission Mexico, working on my UBC Supplemental Application and working on my sermon. Definitely not Monday night (which is tonight) though =P

Mission Mexico is a mission trip that has been in constant planning and fundraising for the past two years. It's a week-long trip where students from my school along with some adults go to Tesopaco, Sonora, Mexico and build schools, teach basic English and tell people about the love of God. We're going there for a week and I'm excited and nervous. I've been to trips without my parents before and with some of my classmates but it's Mexico! They said that it's pretty dangerous. I'm scared but I know that God will protect me so I just have to pray and trust Him.

Yesterday was Sportsfest hosted by our church at an Adventist school. We played volleyball, watched the guys play basketball and eat good food. Lots of fun and I chilled alot with my church fam!

We began cotillion practice for my debut. I'm disappointed that many girls couldn't make it, happy that almost all the guys were there and frustrated that I couldn't teach the late comers properly =(

LIX

We had our first basketball game yesterday and it was against the last team we played against. Pretty fun x) 71-15 for us and I fouled 3 times (I think). 2/3 fouls involved heavy physical contact. The first one, I was defending against a girl and I kinda tripped on my own feet and fell and that was a foul on me apparently @_@; The second one is more entertaining. I was guarding this girl who was gonna have a breakaway but I wouldn't let her at all and I ended up tackling her. Then, instead of rolling AWAY from her, for some reason, I rolled ON her. LOL =X But yeah. Once again, I didn't get any points (I'm too shy T.T;;) and any other positive stats but it's okay.


Attempted to play MW2 on my youth family friend's XBOX 360 tonight. It was hard cause I'm used to my PS3 controller and the shoot/aim down/grenades buttons are switched up *sigh* It's okay. Next time!


In other news, I finally reached my goal of saving up to $300! Unfortunately, as soon as I did, I went to Michael's (the arts and crafts store) to buy stuff for my silk screening attempt and spent around $50 =_=;; But it's worth it! I hope.


In relation to the previous paragraph, attempting my first "silk-screening" project over the weekend. I started last night for the stencil making but it didn't work as well as I did in terms of actually using the stencil on the shirt. I had to go over the lines anyway -__-; I guess it's okay since at least I had a guide. Looking forward to tomorrow when I finish this =) I'll post up pics when I'm done.


Also, I received my term 2 report cards today. I went up in everything except for Bible and Math. Bible, to be expected since my worship wasn't that great. Math, also to be expected just cause our teacher sucks balls. My average went up though by 1%! 92%-->93% Probs because my Drama grade went up to 100%, my English grade went up to 99%, my Chemistry grade went up to 94% and my Biology grade went up to 89%. I know it sounds like I'm bragging but I'm just really happy. Please bear with me :P

Youth Fam Time!

Tonight, the youth wanted to chill and do something instead of just talking so our Youth Leader (Winston) and I thought of like... board games, wings and renting a movie. We went to Carvy's house to have this little hangout and it was really fun. From around 8PM-1:30AM, I spent all that time with them xD

So Winston and the Surrey people bought Taboo and then when they got there, Winston, Trisha, JR and I went out to check out any good movies and to get wings. No movie and the $$ we collected from people weren't enough for the wings so Wins and I just paid the rest.

After 45 minutes and getting bad directions from each other, we got home and ate. Eleven wings later, we played Taboo. First it was 4 on 4 of whoever was there then we did Boys vs Girls and afterwards, Deer Lake School people vs Fraser Valley Academy people. Good times. SOOO funny and SOOO loud n_n Afterwards, Carvy's mom made pancakes for us and they're so fluffy and yummy xD;

I love my Youth Fam. I know that my life is taking a turn for the better and that I'm spending time with the right people. I know that they won't leave me and that they'll always be there for me and I for them. I LOVE YOU FAM.
