Finals Week Baby!

OChem Final this Friday 3-6PM
Physics Final this Saturday 3-6PM

Going to school on a Saturday?? That sucks! :\

Quick Weekend Recap:
Friday I stayed home and welcomed my cousin back to San Diego. She's here for two weeks and I'm pretty happy she's here. She cleans my room, folds my laundry, takes out my trash, gets me drinks from downstairs.. THIS IS THE BEST! Now I know what it's like to have a little sister. If only my parents hadn't reached perfection when they had me, too bad. Since I stayed home I missed out on Momma Mia! So let's go again. I love bruschetta (pronounciation: brusketta >> according to know it all JR.)

On Saturday I took my cousin to Spectrum Mall up in the OC. Lots of shopping was done and much money was spent. Only bummer was coming home we were stuck in 2 & 1/2 hours of traffic. Seriously bumper to bumper the whole way home. Argh. Damn you San Diego Freeway. Then I went to church with my family and afterwards met up at JR's for Excelsior. We made an early arrival to take advantage of the hosted vodka bar. Probably my best night ever because I only spent $2 and I had like 5 drinks! Yay.

Sunday was even more fun cause we played slosh ball and I chugged beer. I wanna play again! Then yummy pizza at Ellen's house afterwards along with yearbook reminiscing and karaoke of course. A great way to end a great weekend!

Pictures coming soon :] Have a good one!

can't lose you!

Biggest Procrastinator Everrr

Even though I'm fully aware of my OChem midterm tonight, I still went online first to check my email, google reader, then myspace, left some comments, and now blog-blog! Haha. Gotta love low averages and a very helpful curve! Just hope it works to my advantage tonight! So keep me in your thoughts & send me some good vibrations :]

CONGRATULATIONS SUPER KRONICS! Such a close game at first and I was getting nervous, but they pulled through with the big W. Good game anyways Purple Haze 1!! Kimtan represented the Viets with a 3-pointer! Yay. Let's get that championship!!

I got a new planner yesterday from Office Depot, haha. And immediately after I had to write in everyone's birthdays and future plans that I know of. So I'm pretty sure I got everyone?? And the only for sure thing I've got planned is August 10th SHOGUN FREE LUNCH, thanks to bff Apes. Me and Alvin were discussing our strategies last night.. what to order and how much to budget for extra stuff. Alvin was super excited! "Do you think we'll have to pay for tip?" Haha, teammates foreverrr.

Have a good one folks. See ya'll this weekend!

basketball junkie =
nap time for me! yaaay!

It's Celebration Week!

Congratulations PURPLE HAZE 2 on a fantastic game! Gotta love them buzzer beaters. We have got to be the loudest fans everrr especially with Auntie Rhoda screaming over my shoulder. Anyway, congrats again on such a great game :]

Celebration time at Friday's afterwards. Who knew we could take up the whole patio?? Brother Bear was feeling extra generous last night and he bought a round of ultimate long islands for everyone! BALLIN'! Golly that drink was nasty but it did the trick. I soon turned a bright red, felt very buzzed, escaped to the car and just stayed there. JR found me, drove us home, and had to escort me up the stairs. HAHA! Oh gawd. I was supposed to study when I got home too.. ixnay on those plans.

Anyway have a terrific day friends :]

taken advantage of! haha

Palm Sizzle

...is what TJ texted JR this weekend. And boy was he right. Palm Springs was sooo facking hot. Like unbelievably hot. Makes you question their sanity, like why the fack would you want to live here? Not to mention there's not a damn thing to do out there besides shop and swim. Unless you like skin cancer and want to burn to a crisp, which is what happened to my shoulders. Sunburns are not fun. And seems like Palm Springs is infested with bugs because I came home with 4 BUG BITES! Itchin like carazy! AAAH! but anyway, Palm Springs with JR's family was pretty fun minus all the aforementioned details. Even better that his parents don't mind us sharing a bed all weekend! Haha, awkward :]

Yesterday was our 1 Year Anny and we didn't do anything too big. Plans to go to Disneyland were postponed to a later date, so we ended up going to dinner at Morton's Steakhouse downtown. Blah, that place is wack. Service was terrible and food was sooo not that good. I've been to quite a few steakhouses in my day and I still love Ruth Chris. Morton's insisted on showing us a visual menu meaning they rolled out a cart showing us all the cuts of meat, a live lobster, and various vegetables for our picking. I would've much rather preferred a printed menu to save time, which they ended up giving to us anyway after the presentation. So tired of that place that we just ended up rushing through dinner and taking our dessert to go which was a good plan. Love yah bf ;]

Plans for this week:
Tonight In class right now till 630pm, Purple Haze games at 825pm
Tuesday Class 930-11am, Work 11-4pm, Class 5-630pm, 5-time @ April's??
Wednesday Same shit, plus JR's playoff game! GO SUPER KRONICS!!
Thursday Same shit, OChem midterm 5pm! (eeks!), plus dinner with Oanh

Don't forget to catch tonight's episode of MTB4: Diddy vs. LaurieAnn!! Haha

"if i ever fall in love again"
forever tarnished HAHA

Nunya Bees Knees

Extremely disappointed yesterday when we tried to watch Harry Potter IMAX style and there was already a long ass line and odors reeking of smelly butt. I seriously had a pout on my face as we were leaving the theatre. Jeez I guess I'll just watch this movie like, three weeks from now!

Trying to be health conscious nowadays, we ate at Panera for some sammiches and salad. $22 for a meal for two. Wow, eating healthy is expensive. But at McDonald's I could get a full meal for two people for half that price. Hmm, what's wrong with this picture?

Work was the best ever yesterday. Not only did my boss leave for her lunch break she didn't come back till after I was off! So me and James finished all the work required within the first hour, dunzo! JR came by and ate lunch with me and ended up hanging out too. I challenged James to a game of UpWords that my boss keeps high on a shelf in her office. I was on the verge of winning too until he busted out the lamest word ever: skank and then followed it with: pimp. Come on now, let's have a little more intelligent game than that. In the end, he won but he's still lame in my book. Haha.

OMG my niece is bugging me now so I have to go.

Revenge of the Nerd.

That would be me. Super nerd status this weekend. Summer school is tough so I really can't fall behind. But thanks for all the good luck cause I PASSED MY MIDTERM! Woot-woot! Next one is scheduled for July 26th, eeks. That's coming up so soon.

As for my water endeavor, I'm still goin! Averaging 4 to 5 bottles a day. Except for today because I had boba. But it's gotta be like 85% water anyway.. what.ev.er. Water does a body good!

So my weekend went a little something like this:
.. Fashion Valley
.. Ran into the Mysters and had an impromptu double date
.. Vietnamese sammiches next to Angie's Fashion (omg, remember that place?!)
.. Homeworking at where else, home!
.. Oanh & Dung's dad's funeral :[
.. Lunch at Sizzler with Orange County friends
.. Best Buy with JR & dinner from Subway
.. My sammich order: turkey mini-sub! Yuuums!
.. Brother's bday lunch aka 4th of July bbq? Wth..
.. Pedicure with Celeste. Gosh, they should really close at 6!
.. Tapioca Heaven for some crepes, boba, and UNO!

And now I'm here. The end of my weekend. Boo.

PS. Hot weather sucks. Buy a fan!

Water Experiment 001

I've been involved in a personal experiment since Sunday. "They" (whoever they may be.. doctors, scientists, health aficionados) suggest or better yet, recommend that you typically should be drinking 8 servings of water each day. Now in my perspective, I'll say 1 serving = 1 bottle of water, which is equivalent to 500mL. Well, since Sunday I've been drinking nothing but water. Hard to believe? You betcha! Water has been my arch nemesis ever since the birth of that bubbly sensation, Coca-Cola. So giving up that carbonated refreshment was no easy task, but somehow I had the willpower and dedication to do so. Error analysis would say I only botched the experiment twice: Monday I had a bottle of apple juice and Tuesday I drank peach iced tea. But for scientific purposes, we'll just let those slide.

Monday: I start off the day with a refrigerated bottle of water (the only way to go man! ICE-COLD!) I'm thinking, not bad.. not bad. By noon-time, I AM DYING FOR FLAVOR. One tiny morsel of sweetness. Something with sugar for pete's sake. So I soon cave and find myself asking for apple juice instead of water. Guilty? Yes. But do I care? Not really. Around dinner time, my food is accompanied by water so the count for Monday is 2 bottles of water.

2 BOTTLES OF WATER? Only two? I'm supposed to be drinking 8 bottles a day yet I could only manage to finish 2. I feel defeated so the next day I increase my intake and make it 3 and a half. Yesterday I drank 5 whole bottles. I am getting up there. But I stop myself and think, is it even humanly possible to drink 8 servings of water? Must I be part-camel in order to drink so much? Who the hell drinks that much water anyway? It is generally the case that if you drink enough fluid so that you rarely feel thirsty and produce between one and two liters of colorless or slightly yellow urine a day, your fluid intake is probably adequate.

So my struggle continues. I'll be triumphant when I'm finishing off the last drops of my eighth bottle. Until then, I'm signing off with my trusty water bottle in hand.


Midterm tonight. Party time afterwards. Wish me luck.

thanks for last night :)

Never Enough Time!

Jeez second week of summer school and my first midterm for my Ochem class is this THURSDAY! Aaaaaah, talk about anxiety attack. I don't get anything that's going on or what he's trying to say and I'm slowly going into stress mode. Yikes. 4 more weeks of school, believe it or not.

Speaking of how time flies, our one year anniversary is coming up! July 22nd <3. I can't believe that just one year ago I had come home from the best Vegas trip ever and watched the sunrise with JR the very next morning. And then Disneyland as our "first date" and a wedding to close out the week. Such fond memories ;]

As for my weekend, not a whole lot went on.
.. American Apparel to stock up on goodies, love that place.
.. Health-conscious sandwiches @ Deli-Icious >> yum!
.. Costco: 30% off magazines and Kirkland white tees
.. Natalie Portman box dvd set $8.99
.. 7.7.07 Lucky Day, bought scratchers, won nada!
.. MM Workshop
.. Kinda sorta invited to Cheesecake Factory, but not really?? Haha jk.
.. Frankie's Italian Deli & boba drinks
.. San Diego Zoo, free tickets thanks to Goodyear!

Somewhere in between there add homeworking and sleep time and you've got my weekend rundown. See you tonight at the basketball games! Go # 12!!

albertson's run-in... HAHAHAHA

I Wish I Wasn't Working...

I bet you're all thinking, "What does it feel like to date the beer pong champion?" I know, I know.. such a huge honor especially when he wins 5 times in a row and I'm tucking him into bed earlier than my grandma would go to sleep. Question: Did anyone catch the real fireworks? I know we were too caught up in our own backyard illegal fireworks, just wondering..

4th of July was chillz. Ribs were good, corn that Alvin made looked good (but I didn't try it), ate a bunch of little piggies, and yummy fruit was refreshing. And that firecracker punch sure caught up with me because my face was warming up by the end of the night. It's those kind of drinks that are sweet and yummy and don't even taste like alcohol that will make you pay for it in the end.

As for tonight, probably study for a physics quiz tomorrow and watch Transformers. Told yah Shia Lebouf was comin up.

Summer Skool

BAH! I start school tomorrow.

MTWTHF 930-1050am Physics.
T TH 1100-400pm Work.
M W 100-250pm Physics Lab.
MTWTHF 500-620pm Class.

Basically school every freaking day of my life.

Summer days really make me lazy. I don't even feel like writing anymore. So I won't.

super close call, haha
