okay, so i have, like 15 minutes until it's time for me to leave for class and i actually just finished my outlines and stuff for my speeches that i'm giving tonight. hopefully they come off okay. i hate this nervous feeling that i get everytime im about to go to this class. you know, it's one thing to get up and talk and teach my students at St. Dom's, but it's another to have to stand up and give a speech about something you're not as sure about or as prepared for to a bunch of people that you barely know or you'll barely ever know since the classes go by so quickly...it just makes me nervous and i just wanna get a good grade...i just wanna do well...shit...im nervous...weird, huh? i've gotten so used to speaking at Confirmation that i normally just get up there and do it, but i don't know, there's something about getting graded for how you talk, not what you talk about that kinda scares me. i dunno...oh well, hopefully I'll feel God with me up in there! talk to you all later...i'm off to class!

today's been an interesting day...first of all, it was very busy at work today - very busy. it hasn't been that busy at work in a long time, so it was pretty cool having something to help make my day pass a little faster so it kinda was a welcome relief, it really helped me get back into the swing of things after being out of the office for some many days...anyways, yeah, very fast day at work today, then some light dvd browsing with connie and kookee...and lo and behold it was time for our Confirmation meeting...long meeting tonight, WAY longer than i had intended, but hopefully it wasn't so bad, shit, we still got out by 830! and yeah...LC of course! fun times...i have gotten myself and paul a pair of pretty good tickets to the Gary Valenciano concert in LA (yeah, i know what you're all thinking - FOB!!! and yes, i am one, and proud of it!) and i'm starting to be pretty psyched about it! woohoo! i just love Gary V! okay...yeah...that's it...i should get to sleep, i don't wanna wake up late for work again tomorrow...peace OUTside!!!

posted at 11:06 PM

wow long time no post...haahaa...well, have to tell you all that my computer has a mind of it's own, and it doesn't seem to like me - it only turns on for kookee...sad, huh? oh well, whatever...i've had a pretty cool weekend actually, so let me re-cap - it was pretty rela*ing too (sorry some keys on my key*oard aren't working, so you'll just have to figure out some of the things that i'm trying to type)...anyways...so to re-cap...

Friday: *reakfast with Patricia at Camillo's (that place is really good!), then an afternoon at Universal Studios with Paul and Henry, and...some dinner and shopping with Chi, Paul, and Henry...i actually ate at Tommy's guys...i did it for them...sometimes you have to give in too...

Saturday: lunch with mika, kookee, diana (mika's sister), and carlo (mika's cousin) at *uko...it was pretty cool...hopefully kookee and carlo will *e friends...and after...hmmm...chillen with jay, shopping, and dinner at my favorite restaurant ever - SUSHI ON *RAND!!! woohoo! and to end the night, a very nice night of conversations with some good friends of mine...paul, jay and i ran into patricia and randy while we were at sworks, and it was nice to just sit and chat with them. it's *een a pretty long time since i've spent time with them and it was really refreshing to have that time together to just rela and enjoy each other's company...

Sunday: lunch with Monica...it's *een a long time since we've had some time out...she's really great, and i'm glad that we're such good friends...dinner with chi and dad - i think this is gonna *e the new sunday ritual, the new sunday dinner...and yeah...that's it...that's my weekend...

hmmm...today...nothing much...i had to go to the doctor - and shit...i had to wait for 1 hour cu* the doctor was running 50 minutes late!!! terri*le, huh? well, it's alright, i got that out of the way...anyways, after, i had a nice quiet lunch with paul at islands (it's *een a while since i've eaten there), and then i ran some errands with kookee after i picked her up, and that's a*out it...pretty *oring, huh?

oh well...i *etter get to *ed, i've got a class to go to in downey tomorrow...i'll *log more later...or sometime this week...we'll see...if the computer works...Peace OUTside!

OMG!!! i have just learned the lesson of procrastination!!! I WILL NEVER PROCRASTINATE AGAIN - okay, so maybe that's not really possible, but I really learned a lesson today! I had class tonight, and i had 2 speeches due today, and i had to turn in outlines, but my lazy ass just waited to do it for the last minute, and guess what?! MY COMPUTER WOULDN"T TURN ON LAST NIGHT - OR THIS MORNING!!! It's like God was teaching me a lesson, and this POS didn't work for me, but today when kookee tried to use it it turned on! damn comptuer! bleh...

anyways...i've also realized that i haven't blogged in a few days, so let me re-cap...

Tuesday night, i decided to get off my ass...i'm young, i don't have to be home early, i should enjoy my life, so i finally dragged my ass out...jay talked me into going to dinner with her, tina, and angel at this restaurant on Hillhurst called Shin's. it's a pretty good japanese restaurant, and it was really cool to get out for once and stop being a couch potato. i'm getting better. haahaa...

then wednesday night - of course it was LC night, but before that i had some "gail and mark" time before confirmation, and that was really refreshing. it's been quite some time since we'd done that, and i'm glad we got the chance to, even if it did mean that i PROCRASTINATED...but spending time with the SDYMers was well worth it...now on to today...it was a very good day...first of all - I was off! no work! haahaaa...then connie, drew, paul, michelle, and i had dim sum for lunch - woohoo! i haven't had dim sum in forever and it was MMmmmMMMMmm good! after, connie, kookee, and i headed out to do some shopping, some costco and best buy shopping - the best kind of shopping, but can you believe it, i only bought one dvd?! i'm losing my touch! haahaaa...and yeah...i had class tonight, and surprisingly enough, i had a really good class. can you believe that there were only 3 students in my class tonight?! haahaa...i was home by 830! and class isn't supposed to end until 10! it was great, and i think i gave some pretty good speeches in class, and i'm pretty satisfied with myself right now...i'm pretty happy...so yeah...

okay...i've realized that i'm not a loser - i'm an old lady. shit...i passed up a night out with some very good friends cuz i was lazy, feeling pretty cheap, and i wanted to just stay home and watch tv...haahaa...im a geek. i hope teen and jay aren't hurt cuz i didn't go with them. they probably didn't mind, at least i hope they didn't. okay...tomorrow, for sure, no flaking out on them. dinner out tomorrow...im gonna go - for sure...okay...enough...bye

i don't know...i guess maybe i'm just starting to get bored with life...in looking back at my weekend - i don't think i really got anything accomplished. yeah, i helped paul get some stuff for his room, and yeah, i had dinner with my friends last night, and yeah, i spent some time with my sister and my dad...but other than that...did i really do anything productive? or anything really fun? jeez...we were gonna go watch a movie tonight, but we just got too lazy...shit...im turning into an old woman, a boring old woman...i need to find myself a life...

okay...so i'm starting to get worried...my lola's at the hospital again, she's not feeling well...please pray for her guys...it's kinda sad for me, i had been having a pretty bad week, and it was starting to pick up and get better (wednesday was really a turning point for my week), and now i'm back to being worried. my mom went to take her to the hospital - a long time ago supposedly - and she's not home yet. i hope everything is alright...i kinda feel bad for having a good time tonight. i just need to pray, and keep faith...all things happen for a reason right?

fuck...i had just posted a bunch of stuff, and it all got deleted...piece of shit...oh well...i don't feel like blogging it all again...

to make a long story short...

1. i had wanted to go to universal tomorrow, but due to circumstances beyond my control - i had to cancel on some of my friends
2. i'm kinda worried about my lola, her blood pressure just sky-rocketed
3. school was fun today
4. there are only 5 students in my class
5. we're going to the ice house on sunday...anyone (18 or older) wanna come? maybe we can get more free tickets, but i can't really promise anything...

that's it...im done

posted at 11:13 PM

okay, i'm back! feeling, quite a bit better. i'm getting over my "depression" and last night was really something i needed - a night of talking, sharing, and fellowship with some very good friends - thanks tanya, bobby, mark, and joey, and a very good talk with my best friend - thanks paul - im starting to just let go of all hurt i've been keeping all week, and i'm reaching the point of just accepting that shit happens and people change...so yeah. i just wanted to thank everyone for last night, all the talks, all the laughs, and all the fellowship...you guys are the best. you guys remind me of what friendship should be. i love you guys...

anyways, in other news, im kinda anxious right now cuz im starting school (yeah, finally i know) tonight. i've got a stupid speech class that i'm gonna take actually, hopefully it won't be boring and a waste of my time and money. that'll really, really, be very bad. so yeah. anyways, i have to give a speech about and EXPERIENCE i've had that DESCRIBES WHO I AM. dude! why can't i just introduce myself? wouldn't that be so much easier?! terrible, huH? oh well. anyways, i'll live i guess...hopefully it'll turn out okay...wish me luck!

woohoo! i'm off tomorrow!!!

okay...so i was just reading my friend ivy's blog, and it made me think...she was talking about not having a best friend, and it's weird...im the type of person to have tons of "friends" and tons of "best friends", sometimes you need to really think about who your friends are. in conversation today, i learned that there are some people out there that are my "friends" who hear people talk shit about me, yet they choose to do nothing about it. shit. i was really upset. if you know me, i have a big mouth, and i'm not gonna deny it - i'm a bitch. i speak my mind, and yeah, i talk a lot of shit, but you know what? i'd back my shit up. i'm not fake to those that i don't like - if i don't like you, then im pretty sure you know it too. so i don't understand what the big deal is. fuck...dude...im off subject, well, not so far actually...i guess what i'm trying to say is, i know what it's like to not have a lot of people that you can always trust. as i've been growing up (and i know im still growing up), i've found myself drifting in and out of different groups, crews, or whatever you may call them. different "regulars" that i hang out with, different people that i have no problem calling up and just chillen with. and as time has gone by, i feel like i've come full circle, i've gone through grade school friends, and high school friends, and even college and work friends, and i feel like i'm only starting to learn now what friendship is. it's growing up, and most importantly growing together. like everyone says, we all mature at different speeds, and my best friend today isn't the same best friend i had 5 years ago, i barely met my best friend today 5 years ago...im constantly growing, meeting new people, changing, and hopefully all those that i already call friends, and the best friend i have, will grow with me, but i'll understand if circumstance and life just happens to drift us apart cuz that won't mean that they'll cease meaning something to me, because my best friend from 5 years ago, is still someone i love very much, someone that i still believe in, someone who's friendship i still cherish very deeply, but it's not the same and i doubt it'll ever be the same...we change, we grow up, and we find our "friends", i've found mine...

to get to the point...i've been in and out of friends, and in and out of groups and clicks, but i'm growing up, and i'm learning that i'm very blessed to have a best friend, to have good friends, and to know who i am...that's all i can ask for...eventhough i've been hurt (or i am hurting) because of my "friends"...shit..i'm learning too...

tonight i went to see THE FOUR FEATHERS with my sister and my cousin (as some call her, my other sister...haahaaa...) and dude...the story was sooooo touching. friendship, being willing to give of yourself totally for another, what a powerful feeling. to be able to trust that there'll be someone who will always be willing to give their lives for you. it's an amazing feeling. i'd like to think that i'd be so lucky to have a friend like heath ledger was to his friends...and i hope to be a friend like that to my friends...

okay, paul just left here a little while ago, and now it's almost time for me to go to bed...dude...i remember when i first got home from pinas, i could barely sleep - that was terrible! and now...look at me, it's 1030 and i'm sleepy! terrible, you can totally see that i'm getting back into my bedtime habits. haahaa...anyways, yeah...dude! im sooo happy to be starting school next week cuz it's been forever since i've done something productive with my time. i'm totally getting tired of being a lazy bum at home, so yeah, i'm kinda excited to go to school, BUT...the downside - no more watching FRIENDS and WILL AND GRACE and OFF CENTRE!!! i'm gonna have to tape it now!!! that sux!!! but oh well...it'll be alright, at least now i have something to fill my time...haahaaa...shit, i'm such a dork - i have no life...thank God tomorrow's friday - the weekend's practically here! i only have to get through tomorrow, and i'll be good - WEEKEND OFF!!! i better enjoy it, cuz i'm back to work the weekend after - booooooo...but it's cool, i've just got to get through one more day - AND IM OFF!!!! woohoo...im excited!

anyways, hmmm...today was pretty cool...i was in a better mood this afternoon...for some reason, paul and i were being pretty silly at work, and henry was even joining in with our silliness too! haahaa...it was a funny afternoon at work....what else? hmmm...the confirmation team meeting went really well. i think they're gonna go pretty well from now on. i'm kinda excited about that. we started the meeting at 705 -almost on time, or about as on time that we're ever gonna get - with a pretty good turn out, and they we're really good at listening and getting through the meeting. i'm glad that on meeting nights we'll be able to start getting home a little earlier...after the meeting, kris, monica, bobby, and i headed off to get some grub - so pete's it was for us, and i'm glad that it wasn't such a big group, and i'm glad that we got to spend some time to just chill and enjoy eachother's company...i love those guys...okay...yeah...that's it...bye

oh jeez...i dont know what's wrong with me...i've realized today that i'm just feeling totally BLEH lately. maybe it's almost that time of the month for me (maybe that's too much information for some of you guys out there), but uh...i don't know...my last blog alluded to this feeling, but i guess i'm just really irritated with myself for not having a life. i'm a total couch potato, and it's starting to disgust me...im actually very happy to be going back to school next week - even if it only is one class - and it's on thursday! terrible - it's on friends night! oh goodness...see, im totally just proving my dorky geeky-ness...aaarrrruuuuggghhhh...i don't konw...plus, i've been getting pretty irritated very easily lately...i even got mad at paul for something stupid...as soon as i got mad, i felt bad after...i think it's all cuz of this damn BLEH feeling i have!!! hopefully a night with my SDYM friends will cure this tomorrow...i'm praying...
