ha. so i'm finally completing this for virginia and for anyone else that would like to know 20 random things about me:
1) since junior high, through high school, and my first year of college i was OBSESSED (no, like freakin' OBSESSED) with general hospital. i used to tape every episode if i was in class/work from 2-3pm so that i wouldn't get behind in all the storylines. i even went on to message boards to express my disdain for what i felt were storylines gone bad or for characters i hated that always seemed to still get their way. i still have a bunch of those tapes at my house house. . . i'm SO weird.
2) my space IS good for something! just recently i found my hardcore crush of 5th grade on that crazy network . . . and yes, he is still as freakin' hot as i remember him like 10 years ago. ha! man, when i found him on myspace, i swear my heart skipped a beat. no, seriously.
3) speaking of elementary school days (when my friends and i used to love having sanrio ish), i remember claiming pochacco, my friend cindy had pekkle, and my other friend kim had keroppi. wtf?! and then in 8th grade, my friend natalie and i made pochacco and keroppi paper mache dolls in our crafts class. good times, good times.
4) i played volleyball for a year when i was a sophomore in high school. my friend stephanie started calling me superfrank after a game against amador (or foothill? i can't remember now) because i had been up against the net blockin' ish like crazy.
5) in 7th grade (fremont days), i got punked by all these wannabe chola girls who had beef with me for i don't even know what. that ish made me feel HELLA shitty . . . to the point where moving to san ramon actually seemed like a good idea (which it ended up being. yay!)
6) me and kellie . . . liam and kurt = mad crushes of the '96-'97 school year. ha. that was a good year!!
7) when i started kindergarten, i walked myself to school and back all by myself. ha! what was i, like six years old!? who does that?? i guess it helps when your house is less than a 2 minute walk to school AND you don't have to cross any streets.
8) i was student body president in 6th grade. i ran against a boy that i ended up dating later in the year . . . for like, a week. this was after he got over me kickin' his ass in the elections. haha. oh man. i can't believe i still remember that 'ish. i just saw him on myspace too!
9) i can kill a 40 oz. in about an hour and a half. and yes, i actually did time myself! winter quarter '04 = lots of 40s, a ridiculous amount of hookah, drinkin' and partyin' til the sun came up, 'HOW THE FUCK did you guys get in here?!', sushi mac, and a weird 'love' triangle. good times.
10) i used to take tap, ballet, and jazz dance classes when i was little. i can still do a somewhat decent buffalo step.
11) somehow i've managed to fall in love with at least one favorite band of each of my ex-bfs: from U2 to 311 to taking back sunday. now, i can't get enough of them. go figure.
12) my two favorite years of college: 1st and 3rd year. as freshman we still had the craziness of black sunday (oh how i miss the days of dancing on the bar at sig ep), the lounge kids, playin' lots and LOTS of guitar in the hall b/c we had a SICK ass RA that was totally laid-back (oh how i hate michelle tobias for ruining our 4N experience), the 'triple threat' along with kaveh, ricky, and steve (hahaha), random trips to vegas because we had the IDs that bert made us, my eyebrow ring, when all the SR kids (including myself) still had the time and effort to see each other . . . 3rd year definitely started slow (w/ a new apartment, a 'different' roommate, and a breakup), but winter/spring quarter more than made up for it. (see no. 9)
13) i used to be deathly afraid of roller coasters until i was about 14 and my bf at the time dragged me onto the demon at great america. (great america . . . THE spot to try and find cute boys or for boys to get some digits.) i think i bonded with kelly flores in that line because we were the only two that DIDN'T want to go. needless to say, i got over my fear and thought it was the funnest thing ever. (and yes, i know that's not grammatically correct bitches. haha.)
14) gyrl 6 = me, trisha, kellie, kathy, aaryn, and eleanor. omg. . .i'm so embarrassed just typing it out. dude, how cheesy were we?!?! hahaha. kellie and trish, you guys can only top this 'ish if you can remember all of the names that we had for each other!
15) (virginia - this is for you . . .) so, our senior year of high school a bunch of us got into playing this game, assassins. we all had to put money in to get into the game and whichever team was the last one standing had claims to the pot. hahaha. ANYWAY, as a diversion after a high school dance, i switched cars with my friend virginia so that the "assassins" would follow her thinking that it was me and kellie. ha. that way, kellie and i were able to hide out at my house until we could come up with a safe place to meet virginia up at after. how smart were we!?! dude, those bitches even staked out in front of starbucks after kellie and i had to close together!! we managed to make a clean get away though, thanks to kellie's dad's amazing racer skills.
16) in 2nd grade, my friend john laureta had a crush on me . . . so much so that he had plans on giving me a ring to show his affection. (where he got the ring, i have no idea.) when i found out, i responded by running into the girls bathroom crying, trying to hide from him. hahahaha.
17) in 3rd grade, john's friend alex had a crush on me. on valentine's day, he gave me a rose. . .like, a real rose (who does that at 8 years old?!?! haha.) anyway, i was so freaked out that my dad was going to see it that i personally walked it to the trash can in the backyard and threw it away. hahahahaha.
18) at first i thought mimosas were called hermosas. so, i spent the entire champagne brunch at the bellagio asking for hermosas like a dumbass and yves, toby, and nolan didn't say a damn thing!
19) kellie, brandon, jeremy, mehrad, and i were so easily amused our senior year of high school that when we got tired of using eggs to throw at houses, we would resort to throwing vegetables and whatever other perishable goods we had. OR we would go off-roading in the hills behind my house (before that whole dougherty/bollinger section became a housing development gold mine. . . bitches!) because that was CRAZY fun. haha.
20) in the summer of 2000, a brand new starbucks opened up at the marketplace, right down the street from my house and across the parking lot from my friend mehrad's family owned cafe. the corporate bastards forced my friend's family to close up shop (those roast beef sandwiches were amazing! :::tear:::) not too long after i got hired there. and that's how my crazy starbucks story began . . .

| so, myspace is down and i have about an hour to kill before my review session. it's one of those things where i don't really want to go, but i know i should because it'll probably be helpful to me - the one who only starts studying the night before her tests because she doesn't mind settling for a C.
i'm so antsy to finish up school. i can't believe this is going to be my last quarter. craziness. i suppose it's good i'm getting out right now too - i hear my quarterly tuition has actually exceeded the 2G mark. mechadong mahal if you ask me. (that's tagalog for really expensive.) i figure my last quarter being fall quarter business is meant to be, though, because this will be the year that ucla will actually beat usc in the four years i've been here. yes, it's fate. i'm going to see the bruins finally triumph! (God, i hope so anyway!)
this time next week i'll be relaxing at home in the SR. i've been looking forward to this for at least a month now. i have to get out of this Godforsaken city, it's stressin' me out. well, maybe i just need to go home . . . give myself some time to settle down, mellow out, and let my mind clear and what not. i didn't realize graduating would bring me this much stress and grief. it would almost be easier to just stay in school. *sigh* if life could only be so easy . . . and school not so expensive. : )

| duuuuuuuuuuuude - i never update this ish anymore. well, there isn't much to report. if you'd like europe news, check out my pics or ask me for the 411. that ish is too long to put on xanga.
i'm finally at my apt in LA - well, it's not really mine, i'm just subletting for session C until fall quarter starts. which reminds me - i still need a place to stay for the fall. craziness. i HATE moving.
anyway, this place is nice. it's right next to the apt building that i lived in third year. it's not close to campus like landfair, but it's close to all the westwood ish, which is nice. i'll miss the accessibility to parties though. oh well. what can you do??
the rest of my summer is proving to be rather slow and dull. class is okay, but i always manage to doze off during the second hour. i swear, econ classes aren't meant to be anything longer than an hour. it's hard enough trying to sit through an hour of econ, much less two hours. my attention span isn't that great. aside from class, i have work, work, and more work. it's okay though because i need the money. however, i've been having crazy opening shifts ever since i've gotten back so my sleeping schedule is all fucked up. not to mention my party nights are always shot b/c i ALWAYS have to open on the weekends. wtf is up with that shiet?! *sigh*
speaking of opening, i open again tomorrow, which is in about 5 or so hours. . . goodnite! | | |

| i'm done!! yay!! right now, i'm drinking a mango flavored parrot bay mixer with some orange-strawberry-banana juice. it's quite lovely . . . and getting me quite buzzed. mmmMMMmMMm. i'm in the process of finalizing my tagalog portfolio, and then i'll be really finished!
the undie run is tonight and you better believe i'll be running - in my underwear no less! it's tradition, and uber cool b/c it takes place right in front of my apartment and a gang, a GANG, of people are out there wilin' out and shit. i watched it last quarter and only wished i didn't have an 8am final the next morning so that i could quicky run inside my apartment and strip down to my underwear. it's like midnight yell - one of those good ol' stress relievers. if it weren't finals week, i'm sure it would have the potential of turning into one giant, public orgy. | | |
