  • How I've changed since Middle School.

    It's easier than trying to pinpoint it the next time you see me, wonder about it aimlessly, and I've been wondering, too.  So lawl.  Like other people I know from middle school, some of these changes are unfortunately not for the better, but are impossible to ignore.  Rabble.  This is a partial list of whatever I can think of.

    • No longer COMPLETELY lost and confused on plans for the future. (though for the most part, still am)
    • *Less* naive.  Which is almost unfortunate.
    • "Groovy" is no longer apparent in the regular vocabulary.
    • Nor is "square".
    • Or "frickin'", "frackin'", and "fraggin.'"
    • "Gangsta" is, however, very apparent.  So is "poo poo head", "hecka", "like" -- "Like, I was like.." >_> --, "rabble" and "rahhh."
    • I'm less emo-tastic.
    • I listen to the radio less, meaning I don't remember every line to every mainstream rock song.
    • I watch Korean dramas less.
    • Unfortunately, I'm less daring and ambitious to face the impossible.  There's very little opportunity to plot things.
    • I like to share less than I used to. >_>; lol candy
    • A good thing: I have more self-esteem than before.
    • I blog less.
    • I now curse a little.
    • I am more affectionate and passionate towards pets and animals.
    • Even wussier than before.
    • A little obvious: I now have a boyfriend.
    • My clothing is essentially the same, except I no longer am ashamed of a farmer's tan and I wear dress shirts a little less.
    • I attempt to wear make-up sometimes.  I buy it whenever I think it's a bargain, because I can never refuse a bargain.  So it makes no sense if I buy it and not wear it.
    • I no longer bake because I no longer have an oven.
    • Nerdier than ever.
    • I've lost interest in older men because I no longer fear a teenage relationship.
    • More obsessive over healing the injuries of others.
    • Stopped wearing my trademark bracelets.. because I kind of lost them since I moved. >_>
    • My circle of friends in Elk Grove is smaller than it was in San Jose, and is faltering with changing members with no extremely strong emotional attachment.  The only attachment has been with Phuc, who is also the only constant along with Danielle Bartling.
    • I love candy even more.
    • I spell 'color' as 'colour.'
    • I am now able to express my feelings to other people rather than bottling them up as secrets.
    • I devour less noodles on a regular basis.

    Hum.

  • This Quality Burger Required Several Napkins...

    ... It didn't disappoint.

    I hope that at the least, that introduction confused someone.

    SO,
    I really have been trying to update, but my computer's been kooky-sudden-shutting down all the time lately.  I'm really praying that it doesn't do it again before I'm done uploading this entry.  The Wiz is going okay, but keep a secret -- Opening Night is next Friday and we're really not extremely prepared for it.  D:  Poop poop poot.  I feel unproductive for someone who volunteered as Stage Manager cos no one's been off-book yet (usually we start being off-book three-two weeks before opening night) and my line-feeding job keeps gettin' steel'd.  Cos of that, I doubt I'll be that on the play program. I finally found an acceptable costume for the Wiz, cos I was getting paranoid and even prepared to drop out of the play, though we've only run our scene (lol i'm like just a little extra in the play) once, and I've already forgotten how on earth my song even goes.  Not a good sign, but hopefully it'll be okay this Friday.

    On another note completely:
    Happy Year and a Half Anniversary, Mr. Christa!
    From a fortunate line of coincidences, our anniversary coincided with a Friday Night Live field trip to Marine World (or now known as discovery kingdom)!  :D   I just got home and uploaded pictures.  It was a lot of fun and I had a very nice date with Phuc. 

    Ranting run-on sentence: I pulled a Female Move when I kept telling Phuc to go on the big rollercoasters without me with the rest of the group while I was by myself going on the little wussy rides and petting sting rays and dolphins, but after a while I got lonely and mad at him just for following what I told him to do, because we probably spent only half an hour out of the three hours together we were in the amusement park by the time we actually did start hanging out together, and it was our anniversary and he wasn't even around but it wasn't even his fault cos i told heem to go aray; "When we say we're okay, we're probably not!"  Then, when he wanted to go with the group and see the Tiger Show and I wanted to go to the Butterfly Exhibit, I started telling him that I'd rather just go around the park by myself, and I was butt-hurt and kept telling him to go away and "just stay with them and spend time with them without me, like you've been doing all day already." Lol girls are confusing. 

    SO, things are awesome now and that was really a relatively small part of the day, but I'm mentioning it so extensively because I feel guilty about being mad about something stupid, especially on our anniversary.  >_>  I started liking him again after I pee'd faster than him (>________> longstory) and so we went around the whole park together and bought slushees and whatnot.  It was also my first experience of a boy playing a game to win me something, which was sweet.  I liked all the wussy rides (he was a good sport about them too) and the zooooo, and the fact I got to spend so much time with the Phucster.  :D   Whee, some pictures. Photobucket is currently being stupid, so I'll try to have pictures next time, whenever it stops being stupid and I happen not to be lazy.

    I'VE BEEN PLAYING SO MUCH POKEMON LATELY, YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW.  So has been everyone else, except the Pokemon I'm playing is OLD and is for the Gameboy Advance, not the DS.  Lol poor walla walla rbablel arbabralera rabble  DUN DUN DUN TIGER'S WALKIN

    Today's lesson: Love is a marathon composed of pure sprinting.

    take me to the place i love, take me all the way

    Bye for now.

  • Hey guys and dolls.

    I really would like to say that the reason I don't update is because things have been mundane.  But really, did that stop me before?  Did I cease to talk about gummy bears and glow-in-the-dark plankton?  No.  No, I did not.  So uh, yeah.  Wee, update.

    AND JOEVE UPDATED.  WTF THROW UP A HALLELUJAH.  ._.

    WELL, SO, I apparently didn't do too hot for my Lenaea monologue.  As a whole, our school's monologue group got in the 20's which is, quote Miz Townsend, "Not very.. great."  I got a 27, high 20's, almost okay, lol.  I was earnestly surprised at the average, b/c I feel that the other kids from my school did pretty well.  I didn't quite tell anyone, but I wasn't drastically shocked with mine.  I wasn't FEELING it at the actual event in comparison with the school nighttime performances, but I didn't expect to do so.. poorly.  Lol.

    MUNDANE: My pants' buckleholes broke, and then I spilled ranch AND tomato paste on them.  *sad*

    I doubt I reported to y'all yet, but MTHS's is doing a musical -- The Wiz.  I applied for Stage Manager, and I am now going for, well, the double-jobbing for a duty as a very minor role onstage.  Potentially line-less (DAMN BRONECKY I SWEAR -- go long story, go!), almost movement-free, but demands my purchasing a color-coded costume.  I might have to strut.  That'd be interesting.

    MUNDANE: I'm out of led.  My pencil = *sad*

    I went to the uptown Flea Market last Saturday, which I LOVE.  Great deals, great sights, lots of candy and nachos.  You simply cannot go wrong... until something expired or infectious kills your soul, but that's a different story.  Passing by the Pet Center after buying ice cream, stickers, and cow-patterned socks, I saw a very small turtle and came to a shocking realization.  I wanted the turtle.  And that I wanted the chicken next to the turtle, and contemplated the birds next to the chicken.  Alas, when I grow older, my house will be a farm.  Not your typical mucho dog neighborhood, but possibly a repertoire of domesticated mice and rats, some sort of reptile (I'm leaning towards iguanas), hermit crabs, a full fish aquarium, dwarf hamsters, chickens, ducks, a pig, a cow, and of course, the turtle that I saw that the Market.  I visit PetCo and PetSmart at relatively frequent rates, and the multitudes of small animals are entrancing.  Farm animals are just awesome, naturally.

    MUNDANE: I eat a lot, which doesn't go well with how I don't have PE anymore.  *sad*

    Beep, beep.  I miss MapleStory.  >_>;  I'm not out of things to say, I just don't feel that there's enough time to say it all.  Also because I've forgotten the bulk of what I wanted to write about.  Beep.

    Today's lesson: The determination to keep caring in the face of chaos can make all the difference.

    i can hear the sad memories still haunting me; so many things i'd still do again

    Bye for now.
