3.31.05//What a day. Uugghh! It's ok. Let's see. Where to start. Yesterday, after school, I went to play tennis at 2:30. Then I got back home AT 5:30, and Mom and I left to the airport to pick up our relatives, who are currently staying with us, by the way. So then we went out to dinner and I didn't get home till about 10:30. That wasn't fun. I still had tons to do. I had to shower from tennis, and do some homework and a bunch of other things. I didn't get to bed until midnight. Yikes. But luckily, I didn't have a tired groggy feeling this morning. I have tennis later. Allen's in BIG TROUBLE. I'd hate to be him right now.

3.22.05//So we have a sub today, and of course - as always - everyone is goofing off and whatnot. And I am still the lowly T.A. It's quite lovely. Um... so I'm just hanging out. What else is new. Absolutely nothing. It's STILL raining, and it STILL SUCKS that it's raining. BORING! It gives me absolutely nothing to do! And I have to get ready for my tournament this weekend! UGH!! I've been eating really unhealthy too. That's pretty bad. Anyways.. 'sigh'. I'm tired. I'm gonna listen to some music now to figure out what I want to do for the Cavalcade. Tryouts are on Friday. Mercedes and I have the first part down - we just need to do the closing. Hopefully - it'll be aallll gooood.

3.14.05// My ASF scholarship is due tomorrow. Shit. I still have to copy down one of the essays. Damn! I hate scholarships. Deadlines suck. I got a 10,000 grant from UOP, that was exciting. Now I only have to pay fucking 20 grand more for the full tuition a year. No wait. My bad. maybe 15 grand. That's still a lot, if you ask me. I have a tournament this weekend. It's funny, because every time I sign up for a tourney, it's supposed to rain. And whaddaya know- it's supposed to rain this weekend! but for some odd reason it's supposed to stop just for Sunday, then continue on through the rest of the week. How messed up is that?! Yikes. Okay, time for some Angels and Demons...

3.3.05//Like my new layout? I LOVE IT! How awesome is HTML? Jeff just mentioned that I'm a dork for knowing it, when I can just use Dreamweaver and it'll do all of the HTML for me. Bah. Anyways.. today I'm supposed to work out with Kevin at 1:30. But I really feel like crap cuz it's the first day of my time of the month. But I will go through with it because he's Kevin, and I've been holding him off for a really, really long time. I need a workout anyways. Good excuse to vege on candy later while watching the boys play. Speaking of candy, I need to buy more chocolate. I have a Sour Patch packet and a bag of Skittles, but I really need some chocolate. I'm dying without chocolate. Shit. lol. Noah's supposed to come watch the game too. And then I will probably go to my COM class later. That class is SO BORING now. It's crazy. It's just.. that all the adults in it are so.. slow. I dunno. It's like everything has to be repeated 3 or 4 times before we can move on! Picture this - while I was gone, I didn't miss ANYTHING, cuz they're slow. But it ok. Whatevs. I can deal. At least I have an A in that class. Or perhaps a 99 percent. Who knows. I don't think I'll do as well on the next test. But that's just me. So far, the tests have been really, really easy. Oh yeah - Zuleika and Caitlin got into UC Santa Cruz! I'm so happy for them! I think UCSC was one of Caitlin's top.. and it was Zuleika's 2nd choice after Scripps. But I have a feeling that she'll definitely get into Scripps. Anyways, I'd better go now. I'm getting hungry, and we get out in like 4 minutes. Woot. And it's a short day. Aahh.. *breathes* I'm in love with short days. Oh yeah - Jake is my prom date. It's exciting. Jake, from the tennis team. Weee! He kewl.

2.12.05//It's a miracle that I'm actually typing this from home. I suppose it's also exciting. I've been so damn busy lately, it's crazy. But it's good, time seems to be going by faster than I think. I can't even believe my birthday is going to be in only 10 days. I'll be 18, finally. Wow. So Noah and I got our mixed doubles draw. I'm looking forward to playing some matches. Poor dude is currently sick and trying to sleep off his sore throat at this very moment. Poor babyyyyy! I already sent in my deposit for UOP to keep my spot- I'm excited! the only tough things to deal with now are the scholarships. There are so many different deadlines that I have to follow and keep track of- it's driving me nuts! I go to bed completely EXHAUSTED, because I've been jotting down figures and writing essays and organizing envelopes with addresses and all that! And then work comes along, and I have to put in some time to that. Then I have my tournaments. THEN I also do my volunteer work! Which reminds me... I need to get that recommendation out. SHOOT! Oh well. I'll do that sometime next week if I volunteer there. NARF! I'm thinking about painting my nails so that I'll stop chewing them. That ALWAYS works. But then I just get lazy about taking off the nail polish when it starts to chip, which happens EVERY TIME I PLAY TENNIS, WHICH IS ALMOST EVERY DAY.. so there's almost no point in me wearing nail polish. But maybe I'll try it. My nails just look so bad.. 'cuz I chew them.. when I get bored. It's sad. Hehe. I'm palying in the ClubSport Open next Saturday. Wish me luck!

1.20.05//despite the fact that i had to wait 3 more days to get my acceptance letter than i was told... I GOT INTO UOP! WEEEE!! so i'm definitely going there. it's official! just have to send in my tuition and housing deposit. yaaayy.... 'sigh'! school is going pretty well. i really wish i would dedicate more time to my biology class. but i'm so busy working hard in ENGLISH, 'cuz it requires tons of reading and writing notes and writing in-class essays and all that. but so far, i've been getting really good grades in it.. today we got two papers back.. harvard got an a on one and a c on the other. i got a's on BOTH! WOOOO HOOO!! i rock. weee!! and tennis will be starting up.. the whole marin open doubles thing with nobaba will be funnn.. so we've been practicing our dubs. it cool.

HAH! class is boring as usual. time to look at some songs.
Song: "(none)"
1.4.05//wow, welcome to '05. and in memory of noe espinoza. poor guy. um.. let's see. 2nd period, traditional day. talk about boring. but at least each class is only like 50 minutes long. phew. so i got to english class.. luckily ON TIME, WOW. and then she was calling everyone up to tell us what we got on the final.. ends up i got an A! wowza.. amazing! lol. one of the few, i might add. now if only it could be the same for biology.. i'm kinda spooked about what i'm getting in that class. sheeeeeit. i'm also hoping it doesn't rain so that i can at least play some tennis. i mean shit, i haven't worked out for all of winter break, which is all of 2 fucking weeks. oh well. i wanna download minesweeper on this comp. but.. better not. i think i'll look over my schedule. yeah, that sounds good.

12.20.04//it's 451 am. i'm waiting for the noah to pick me up. it's so early. oh man. however, i sorta couldn't sleep and i woke up at around 330 so i played some ps2 for a while. not a good idea. um. so yeah. i think it's time for minesweeper. yay.

12.17.04//dude. this is awesome. i'm done with finals! weeee!!! i think i did pretty well on the english final. plus, ms. lee really really liked the fact that i gave her a gift. yay! she said she was gonna put it under her very small tree. i gave all of my teachers gifts. it awesome. giving is good. so.. yeah! going up skiing with noah on monday, that's the next thing to look forward to. actually, getting my haircut tomorrow. gawsh, i need a haircut so badly. i hope it's kinda sunny tomorrow morning. i'd like to play some tennis. last time i played was on tuesday. i feel so lazy. and then i have to work today. hmm.. i wonder what i should get for dinner. i feel bad, cuz every time noah asks me, i keep saying i don't know. i have to come up with an answer SOMETIME. ugh. but i am gonna go to taumoha's for some lunch.. her mom makes the BEST FOOD EVER. anyways... i guess i'm gonna go. see ya!

12.13.04//45 minutes left in this class. why does it go by so slowly? i feel incomplete right now- i forgot to put my phone in my backpack. ew. supposed to go shopping for snowboarding outfits today with noah. should b fun. we're gonna go up to northstar next monday, just for a day. can't wait to teach him how to board.. i'm sure he'll get the hang of it in an instant, since he's a former skater boy.. heheahha.. but i hear it's easier to switch from skating to snowboarding than vice versa. actually, i know that fact from experience. the snoboarding to skating goes NOT work. snow is so much nicer than pavement, i'll tell you that much. weee!!! gosh. i'm trying to figure out what else to say. but there's really nothing. um.. oh, this week is finals. i really only have 2 to study for, and they are both sciences.. physics and biology. god. those are gonna SUCK. especially the 2 biology essays. i'm hoping to at least pass with a C on both. that'll be hard. and the english final, eh.. whatevs. if i get something around a B, at least, i think it'll be fine. i'll probably just have a B in that class. oh, i also found my watch the other day. the black leather one. i was so excited. and stupid me.. it was in my tennis bag all along! and i thought my roommate from stanford stole it.. dang, i felt empty without it! it awesome..

12.7.04//i was going to mention that i had already submitted my apps. but apparently i mentioned all that stuff already. yay. supposedly, UOP has not received my transcript, so i had to go the woman today and she said she sent it on the 19th. understandable. and then i saw this little note on the UOP website that they'd b kinda slow in processing all of their mail b/c they getting a lot. but the woman said she'd send it again just to be safe. phew. so she IS somewhat concerned. that's good news. i really hope i can pull off an A for the second semester of english. i think i have one. either that, or a REALLY REALLY REALLY high B. that would be awesome. yes. but then, finals will most likely bring it back down to a regular B. for biology, i'll probably get a B. physics, eh- MAYBE a b. most likely a b. then english, probably a B. then 2 A's, for econ and for art. yay. that's not TOO bad. hm.
Song: "(none)"
11.30.04//today sucks for the people who haven't completed their UC or CSU apps. they're both due today. i turned those in on friday. woot. we're reading Catch-22 in english. it's pretty good when it comes to comedy, i must admit. however, understanding that shit in chronological order is a serious biatch. oh well. gotta do whatcha gotta do, right? i can't believe christmas is right around the corner. let's see.. i have presents for.. mom, noah, and steve-o.. and linda.. and.. that's all so far. shit, i need to do some SHOPPING! yeah, but i need to get my paycheck first. LOL. this saturday is the los lonely boys concert! woot woot! i'm excited. it sounds so fun! mom is really getting into that band too. she wants to buy the CD. lol. k, well.. i am now officially talking to The Noah. So.. i'm out! wooooot!

11.9.04//I guess no tennis season results in less blogging. that's understandable, right? the weirdest thing happened yesterday. i got a tamagotchi. lol. and i named it noba. it's so cute, all it does right now is roll around and poop all over the place. i'm gonna bring it to work incase i get bored. which just might happen! wee! tonight is the tennis party thing. mom is making egg rolls. it starts sometime around 6... or rather. can't wait to get my MVP award. god, i swear if i don't get it- grr... lol. but i'm sure i'll get it. i'm the only one on the team with an 11-3 record. only makes sense, right? college application deadlines are encroaching quicker than i can see. it's crazy! all of a sudden it's nov. 9, and the uc apps are due by nov. 30. i don't even know when the csu apps are due. yikes.. i think i'll go find out now. the dude next to me is making a hummingbird.. an animated one..
