29 September 2003Yay! Bought stuff on Gap online.You can only use one discount code at a time. Grr. But that's ok. Got my bag and my hat. :) It's kinda pathetic how such little things can make me so happy. Although I guess they're not so little. The total was about...ahemeightydollarsahem. Cuz I got other stuff too. Hm. Ok, NOW no more spending. Especially in October. NO MORE SHOPPING ONLINE. Yep yep. Must follow this. Oh yeah. But I also just bought magazines from Nikhil's sister for her Foothill magazine drive. I remember when Faith and Amos would sell them to us...but anyway. Yes. Back to the magazines. Teen Vogue and Marie Claire. I need magazines for Photo anyway, cuz we cut them up to paste pictures into our "Photo Journals," which are really more like scrapbooks and collages, but yes. Need magazines for that. It's part of my grade! So that's semi-justified. Right? :) Right. Must go to Bonanza Books in November, when I can actually buy things again, and browse through those used books. Want to find books of poetry, slim hardcover ones I can easily slip into a handbag or backpack to read when I'm bored or inspired. Editions not easily found in regular bookstores. Especially older versions. Shiver of delight down my back just thinking about it. :) Ok, back to work. Photo assignment, and...oh yeah. Must call Mike Lee back. Fold laundry too. I'll get to SAT II studying and Personal Essay editing tomorrow. dreaming aloud at 9:30 PM
Sigh. First day of No AIM. I feel lonely already. Been drowning my sorrows in online shopping. I know I said I wouldn't shop for the next month, but...technically, it's not October yet, right? :) And I have a discount on Gap stuff (15% off $75), plus free shipping for over $75! And the bag and hat I want are on sale. So does that count? dreaming aloud at 8:13 PM
WHAT?! I've been on for 5 hours and 30 minutes?!?!?!?!?! This is not good. Kicking this habit, NOW. October is gonna suck, but I have to do this for my own good. And health. No shopping, no AIM, no hanging out (much); only studying for SAT's, college apps, schoolwork, church, volunteering, etc. And a bedtime of at least midnight. Hopefully 11, but I'm doubtful. If I can get to bed by midnight every night, I'll be happy. Someone make sure I stick to this, please. dreaming aloud at 1:47 AM
Darn me again. Should have been in bed at 11. Instead, good conversations keep me up. Sigh. I have no self control. Plus, I'm in a reading/writing mood. Except I have no words to write. No inspiration. Just giddy happiness. Sometimes I find myself smiling for almost no reason. Except I know I have reason to smile. Lots of reasons. :) I hope they read the MRI tomorrow! I can't wait any longer!! (My dad just had an MRI scan on Saturday morning. I want to know the results!) I am in denial of school tomorrow. *yawn* Ok, getting sleepy. Goodnight, and sweet dreams. :) dreaming aloud at 1:43 AM
I just remembered another funny quote, from youth group. "I feel catastrophic!" -Alfred (I'll never let you hear the end of this one!! teehee) I love the psalms. They are so beautifully poetic. We read Psalm 46 today in church. "...he lifts his voice, the earth melts." -Psalm 46:6 "Be still, and know that I am God..." -Psalm 46:10 dreaming aloud at 12:38 AM
28 September 2003Oh yeah, and Mike bought me the new John Mayer Heavier Things cd!! :) Another thing that made my day great.Oh, and You've Got Mail was on TV while Alias was on. So during the commercials of Alias, I flipped to that and watched snippets of it. :) That made me happy. Doesn't take much to make me happy, eh? I'm going to send off my senior picture reprints order form tomorrow. So I'll have lots of pictures soon, so if anyone wants one...just ask. I forget who has already asked me...so just ask me again k? Thanks. :) Funny AIM convo: RedLibertyX: you know what's crazy? RedLibertyX: I'm pretty close to knocking the green thing down RedLibertyX: the green monkey RedLibertyX: very close RedLibertyX: he's on his last tail! RedLibertyX: or only tail RedLibertyX: but he's close to falling! RedLibertyX: and where is that stupid poo thing ... RedLibertyX: so how's things? RedLibertyX: the deliberate butchery of the english language a staple of Chris' general vocabulary. dreaming aloud at 11:23 PM
JK. I watched it. Wow it's good. And to think I missed a whole season...DARN DARN DOUBLE DARN!!! Must watch DVD's. Alias marathon, anyone? Chloe? Christina? Sigh. Can't believe Vaughn. Darn him. I'm SO disappointed in him. Makes me wonder what I missed in the last season...everything that happened between him and Sydney. Tonight's show made me cry. Why is it that these things always make me cry? dreaming aloud at 10:04 PM
Yesterday was a good day. Woke up in a great mood (although an hour early, but went back to bed so s'all good) because of sweet dreams and fun songs on the radio. Volunteered at John Muir (and saw Russ!). Gonna shadow Lisa from now on. Yay! Finally someone steady I can depend on. Met really sweet elderly people while volunteering. Ate lunch with my parents and had a good talk with them about my future, majors, colleges, and such. Went to Jeff's house to bring him chocolates and did physics. (Jeff's sick. :( Boo.) Did more physics and chatted online at home. Went to Youth Group. Talked on the phone with Mike. Had a good night's sleep. Today was fun too. Church in the morning. Drove my dad, brother, and his friend Chris home safely. :) Yay! I drive so much better without my mom in the car, hahaha. Did some physics while listening to good music, talked on phone while doing physics, then went to concert. Concert was SOOO good. I'm so glad I went. They played all of my fave Disney songs!! I almost melted and thought I'd cry. And they played a Beach Boys medley! :) And we had Starburks! Kid's cocoa...mmm. :) And now I'm all mellowed out from the concert. *happy sigh* And now, for more physics... I don't think I'll be watching the season premiere of Alias tonight. Chloe, can you fill me in?? dreaming aloud at 9:04 PM
27 September 2003And three weeks until Eddie and Cindy's wedding!! :)dreaming aloud at 6:39 PM
Two weeks until SAT's! Yikes. I should start studying. Anyone wanna study with me? (I tend to do better when I do homework or study with other people, it seems. Dunno why. Maybe it's motivation. Or maybe cuz we help each other, which is nice. Moral support?) One week until my mom's bday!! :) Yay. I finally get to give her that necklace I bought a LONG time ago. (translation: summer = ages ago.) And we'll probably go out to dinner, too. Yum. Hm. Speaking of dinner...I'm hungry. Think I'll go see what Mom's making for dinner...*wanders into kitchen* dreaming aloud at 6:29 PM
Ferrero Rocher chocolates are SO GOOD. I was happy to spend some time talking with the girls this week. I miss them. Barely get to see them cuz of our darn schedules not matching up, and no classes with almost anyone. But lunch is fun. :) Especially glad I got to catch up (a tiny bit) with Diana, Joanne, and Smee this week. That is all. I should sleep now. (Wow I said that over an hour and a half ago. Darn me. Can never sleep early, even when I try.) dreaming aloud at 12:38 AM
26 September 2003ARGH!!! I just realized that I can't vote next year. In the presidential election. Because my birthday is too late. DARN DARN DOUBLE DARN. No freakin fair.Wow. I can't believe I just wrote that. A year ago, I wouldn't have cared. But politics is surprisingly interesting. And video games too. They're fun. Some, anyway. Hm. Friends do influence you a lot, I guess. They showed me a different side of things, to say the least. That's good, though. Glad I get to experience new things. Good things, not bad. Poopershnickles. :) Teehee. Shrinky dinks!!! That's such a funny phrase. :) Ok, I'm happy again. :) (Doesn't take much to make me happy, I guess. When I'm in a good mood, anyway.) But darn it. Still annoyed I can't vote. dreaming aloud at 11:40 PM
Songs of tonight: "The Way You Look Tonight" by Frank Sinatra. (I heard it on a TV commercial while my dad was watching TV! Haha. :) Good song. It's also in...some other movie, I forget which one.) "Fly With Me" by 98 degrees. "Miss You Babe" by Aerosmith. Aah I want these songs on a cd. ...*in a sing-song voice* oh, Elmo............. :) These songs are so sweet. And I'm smiling like an idiot right now. I hope no one walks over to the computer area and sees me grinning so widely. They might think something's wrong with me, and ask. And I don't want to give details. :) I think I'll go to sleep now, with these happy thoughts in my head. :) dreaming aloud at 10:59 PM
25 September 2003Slept around 4 last night. Got about three hours of sleep. I'm amazed I'm still awake...no naps either!! :) Well...a few five-minute naps. Hehe. Today was a pretty good day. I didn't feel too sluggish. :) Got 100% on my Stat test...yay! After school I went to the park with Jeff, Amaris, and Chris. That was fun stuff. Funny too, hehehe. Then went to Chris' for some ice cream. We're almost done!! Only the chocolate part left. Cookie dough soon!! YAY!! Then went to tutor Drew. Then walked home. Ate lots of yummy food and watched TV all afternoon. Nice and relaxing. "The Bachelor" and "Friends" make me happy. Now it is time to go to bed. Because I am oh-so-very tired. Although a nice, long shower sounds especially inviting at the moment.dreaming aloud at 9:18 PM
23 September 2003Funny moments today at lunch and during physics:"I don't do that with trees anymore!!" -Rozita So Smee does animals, Rozita does trees, and Diana does TRL... "Politics just isn't my thing...I'd rather follow baseball." -Christian dreaming aloud at 7:52 PM
22 September 2003Head hurts. Throat hurts. Whole body aches.Fell asleep today while studying. Naps suck. Especially unintentional ones. Luckily Jo called and I was woken up by the phone ringing. Although my brother had to pick up because I was still too sleepy/tired. But then I had to talk anyway. Oh well. Look, everyone, I'm going to bed before 12!!!!! :) I'm so proud. Wow, my bed and pillow sound so nice...so welcoming right now. Goodnight! dreaming aloud at 11:07 PM
I want popcorn. Kettle corn, to be specific. And cheese. I want to play Soul Calibur 2 and Tekken 4. My feet want to be in the sand. And I want to watch When Harry Met Sally again. But no. Homework still. How am I ever gonna finish?! dreaming aloud at 8:12 PM
Hm. I think I want kettle corn again. Maybe I should have boughten some, because now that I'm not so full anymore from all the pizza and funnel cake...I'm craving it again. Hehe. Just a little. Oh, and I want some cheese. Darn it, we don't have any. :( Not any Singles, anyway. Sigh. Me and my random cravings. I feel sorry for my husband already...poor him, when I get pregnant...(sorry, I know a few of you really don't like that image...and don't want to think of having kids yet). dreaming aloud at 12:24 AM
Walnut Festival was tons o fun. Lots of randomness. Now exhausted (feet tired), head hurts (nauseous from rides), throat hurts (from screaming). But it was all worth it. Friends are great. :) Now I'm checking out college stuff online. It's interesting. I wish I knew what I want to major in. I have ideas...but I don't know for sure yet. I'm getting really worried about college apps. I know the deadlines are still a while away, but I'm worried anyway. (Yes, I know, I worry too much.) I want to get them done and over with...but...I'm scared about my essay...don't know what to write about. Anyway. Must check this site out. Plus Biola's site too. Hafta check out pictures of rooms and campus and such. I'm taking SAT II's in October...should I do them again in November, or try to improve my SAT I score? I dunno which one to sign up for. Someone please help me decide!! Pros/cons, benefits/disadvantages? I need to make a list. Haha. I love lists. My goal is to not buy any type of clothing, shoes, handbags and other accessories, CDs, DVDs, and books for the next month and a half. Til the end of October. Unless they are really necessary. Let's see if I can do this...:) Should I apply for a job at Best Buy? dreaming aloud at 12:22 AM
21 September 2003"I can understand that. I mean, you can disconnect from everything but a kiss. A kiss is so intimate--two peoples' lips together, their breath, a little bit of their souls... I just meant that a kiss is where the romance is." -Kate (Meg Ryan), French KissI watched that movie last night. Liked the quote. Thought I'd put it up. Ok, now I'm REALLY going to bed. The shower only helped a little. But the shoes fit! :) dreaming aloud at 2:31 AM
Ok. Finally going to bed. I really should get some sleep. After I take a nice, long, hot shower. Hm. Might be a while. And I have to wake up early tomorrow. Semi-early, anyway. Wow I've been up for a long part of the day. Too many hours. Sleep, I guess, is a good thing. dreaming aloud at 1:13 AM
Why are we so full of emotions and feelings? I feel as if I'm made up of nothing, no substance, but these darn feelings. Stupid feelings. dreaming aloud at 1:00 AM
Hm. Yes. Again, you're right, Amaris. I should stop blogging also. Dwelling on things never helped any. dreaming aloud at 12:47 AM
Why do guys make you feel soooo incredibly happy? And then totally crush you? Why do I let them get to me? Why do I set myself up to be crushed? dreaming aloud at 12:46 AM
rugrat510: well... when you're sad... u kno i'll always be here to listen rugrat510: and to try to get you back to happy Aww...:) Thanks. :) dreaming aloud at 12:40 AM
Who will tell me that it's ok to be sad? Who will let me just cry? Instead of saying, don't be sad...don't cry...don't be discouraged...be happy! Being sad is no fun... Yes. I know all this. But sometimes I just need to be sad. Please, when I am sad, just hold me. Let me cry. Don't stop me, please. This is not to anyone in particular. Just my thoughts to myself. And if you said anything like this to me, I don't mean to offend you. I just need to get this out for me. And, unlike Amaris, my sulking buddy as of now, I am not editing the one post. Usually I would, but right now that requires too much energy. Something I do not have right now. Although I do have enough energy to still be up, online, blogging and chatting. Well, semi-chatting. To people that will talk to me. Because that's not many. What was my point again? Oh yeah. So I'll just be chain-posting. And not compiling all my petty thoughts into one big post. That is all. (For now.) dreaming aloud at 12:38 AM
Life stinks right now because... drama sucks. caring too much sucks. ____ suck. I suck. I'm extremely stupid. I hate myself for being so stupid. And don't try to tell me I'm not. Because I am. dreaming aloud at 12:28 AM
Why am I sad? Again. Like yesterday. Like today. Why?? I know I shouldn't be. There were too many good things that happened today; there is no excuse. But...why am I sad? Why am I discouraged? I am in a very Ian-hating mood at the moment. dreaming aloud at 12:26 AM
Hm. I noticed that I tend to chain-post when I'm in a not-so-good mood. About nothing particularly important. Just random thoughts and rants. ... Why do I let people ruin my good mood/days? dreaming aloud at 12:22 AM
Sometimes life sucks. dreaming aloud at 12:20 AM
I still really want my Evanescence cd. It's my comfort music. Or 98 degrees. But I don't even have that. dreaming aloud at 12:05 AM

*note to self: Order reprints on http://www.happyd.com/. And apply online at http://careers.bestbuy.com. And sign up for November SAT II's. Or I's. And start college apps! Argh. Too many things. I want the world to go away. dreaming aloud at 12:00 AM

ARGH. What. the. heck. Why is he being such a butt about this?? So stubborn. About NOTHING. This is stupid. Whatever. Darn TWO. Anyways. I spent over one hundred dollars today. Sigh. But it's the first time I used my debit card!! :) At Gap, too. :) And then Barnes & Noble. Yay. And Pauls got me the shoes!!! Excitedness...I still must try them on to see if they fit. Will do later. Oh, and I found a new scent I like...the bottle and label caught my eye as we were walking out of Nordstrom...Burberry Brit. Yum. It smells good. :) And Amaris and I applied for jobs. At Macy's, Yogurt Park, and (soon) Best Buy. Hopefully we'll get one of those. Hopefully Best Buy, so we can hang out with Mike! Or Yogurt Park, so we can hang out with Mari. March-a-thon was today. Tiring. Don't feel like posting about the rest of the day. Not in such a good mood anymore. Too much stupid drama between all my friends. None directly affecting me, but I'm being pulled in anyway. Not that I mind too much, because they're my friends, so I hear about their problems and they affect me and stuff. And I'm probably not making much sense right now so I think I'll stop. I'll just think about all the happy things of today and go think happy thoughts. Goodbye. dreaming aloud at 11:29 PM

A spontaneous love song that burst from my heart and unto my lips: You Alone You are the only one I need, I Bow all of me at your feet, I Worship you alone You have given me more than I could Ever have wanted and I want To give you my heart and my soul You alone are Father and You alone are good You alone are savior and You alone are God dreaming aloud at 9:13 PM
16 September 2003I don't like being sick. Colds are no fun. Headaches, dripping noses, sneezing, stuffy heads, flushed cheeks, stomachaches.And I don't understand physics. I'm so behind in Stat it's not even funny. I have loads of other hwk, it seems. I can't get motivated to start any of it, I'm distracted easily, and I don't feel well enough to do it anyway. Lots of drama between friends. None of it touching me directly, though. But life is still good. God is good. :) dreaming aloud at 9:42 PM
12 September 2003Today at lunch, I felt a deep sadness within me well up and take over my entire body. Everyone was standing around, chatting happily in little clumps here and there. I felt...out of my body, for a while. I stood there, looking dazedly around, my gaze wandering, or lingering on nothing particular. Suddenly I felt the sadness wash over me, but still inside of me, and I had to sit down, it was so heavy. I felt so tired. I wish I knew what made me sad, what was bothering me...I still can't figure it out. Sometimes I get into these moods, and I don't know why I feel these things. I am so much feelings and not enough thoughts. Sometimes I wish I was different. I wish I was a deeper thinker. I wish I had profound thoughts, words of wisdom and knowledge and pondering. I wish I didn't have all these crazy emotions bouncing around, consuming me. Other times I know I'd rather have all these feelings than feel nothing at all. Apathy, in my opinion, is one of the worst states of being. And the most offensive. To me, anyway.I wish to fall asleep under the stars. To have the moon smile down on me, the night sky to blanket me, the stars to comfort me, as my friends. To feel what they must feel, to know what they know. To listen to the stillness of night, to feel the night air around me, to smell the morning dew and be awakened by shoulders, face, sun-kissed and warm. I am in a dreamy state now...yet also filled with nostalgia, the taste of bittersweet on my tongue. Parting is such sweet sorrow... dreaming aloud at 12:36 AM
10 September 2003How do I republish my archives??? I don't understand this new format of Blogger.dreaming aloud at 11:05 PM

09 September 2003Wow. I did absolutely nothing today.Yesterday was a lot more productive. I got home, ate some food and watched TV, went online, and then...the partying begins. HAHA. I went out to go shoe-shopping with Pauls and Bert, and we picked up Kevin on the way. Big 5 didn't have the shoes we wanted, but we decided to go to Target to get the Three Doors Down cd ($9.99!). I, being the impulse shopper that I am, ended up with more than just that (of course). I got two DVDs (Notting Hill and Say Anything) and also the Switchfoot cd. And a Shick Intuition razor that came with an FM shower radio!! And accordian files for school papers. All on sale, of course. So I felt very productive. And afterwards I decided to go bowling with them, cuz I didn't have homework. So we met up with Steph Choi, Phyllis, Phillip, Brian, Dan Chang, Dan Hom, and Brandon at Diablo Lanes. Fun stuff. I bowled my best in a LONG time...116 the first game and 132 the next. I don't know how that happened. But it was awesome. :) Yay, I actually got strikes and spares! Then I was up last night, thinking again, cuz I always do. So I listened to Evanescence...was in the mood for that kind of music. I love Evanescence. It helps me think, and it always makes me cry. Which is very releasing. I actually wrote...on paper, with pencil...some "poetry"...for the first time in a while. And, A Ring of Endless Light is such a good book. It is very comforting. Anyway. Today I guess was productive, sort of. After school I decided to go observe JSA/NFL/whatever else they're called...but not enough people showed up, so I guess I'm off the hook. Haha. (Chris persuaded me to come.) So then Amaris, Chris, Bob, and I went to the band room and saw Jeff and Nikhil. We dragged Jeff along to go to the tennis courts to visit Dianna, Steph, and Sayoko. And then guess who I saw...Ellie Seo!!!!!!! OMG I KNEW she looked familiar!!!!! She was at the youth retreat (Sky Mountain) the same time we were! OMG now everything makes sense...everything clicks! (We went to Palmer together.) Anyways. So yes. And then Jeff had to go home and Amaris and I decided to go to Chris' house again, for more ice cream. YUM. Except no cookie dough...boo. :( Chris and I walked to his house while Amaris drove. Darn her, she can drive. But it's good cuz then she can hang out. :) So no darn her. And Bob showed up...and that was a bit weird. Everything was a little awkward for awhile...but ice cream made it better. So we hung out there for a while, and then Amaris and I had to go home...but then we went outside and started talking more, and we were standing there for about 15 minutes before we decided to hang at the park for a while. We rang Chris' doorbell again to ask him if he wanted to come, haha. And yep. More fun stuff. Then I went home and tried to watch the Newshour with Jim Lehrer for Govt, but it was too boring and I almost fell asleep. I was listening but also thinking about other stuff, so nothing really stuck. Plus I had to keep switching the channel to Friends to keep me awake and interested (and of course, ended up watching Friends and not the Jim Lehrer hour). So not much productivity there. And then I dug through old homework for Chewy (she wants my old calc stuff), and I ended up looking through a lot of old essays and things. That was fun. Then dinner...my brother wasn't really hungry, so it was just me and my dad...and we ended up having a really good talk. :) That was so awesome. Then online...you know how that goes. Fun though. :) Just...no homework getting done today. Oh well. I'll do it tomorrow. Amaris is coming over to help me on Govt and Physics, so hopefully we'll get stuff done then. Wow I'm SUCH a slacker. This is not good. At least I organized my school stuff in that file thingy of mine. That was one productive thing I did. Yay, go me. I think it's time for bed soon. Time for me to get off the computer, at least. Nitey nite. dreaming aloud at 11:25 PM
07 September 2003Camping pictures! Come see.Perfect Match New York is a good TV show. So cute, so sweet. :) I wish everyone could have a happy ending. "Anger as soon as fed is dead- 'Tis starving makes it fat." -Emily Dickinson I like this quote. It's very true. Get your anger out, and you'll feel better. I love this blog. Ranting helps so much. I feel so much better now. Well, ok, friends have a lot to do with it to. :) dreaming aloud at 10:23 PM
Oh. One more thing. I hate non-confrontational people. On a happier note...I discovered a favorite snack food: Snickers Ice Cream Bars (and regular Snickers bars too). YUM. And toasted marshmallows. THE reason to go camping. Haha. Camping is fun. Knocking down the poles of a huge tent on four guys inside is even more fun. Uno (with cuts) at night is fun when we're delirious, but Phase Ten was pushing it. Although I still had fun...cause I was still delirious, haha. Some people were a bit cranky though. dreaming aloud at 9:56 PM
I hope you know that I'm super pissed at you right now. Only about the fact that I can't talk to you online. Because you take forever to respond. And then you have to leave. So how am I supposed to talk to you? It's so one-sided. I really want to sit you down and fire off a billion questions that are swimming in my head, and make you answer every single one. To my face, so I can see your reactions and your facial expressions and hear the tone in your voice and read your body language, and actually have a real conversation with you. I want to get everything out in the open. But I know that forcing you to talk would not be good. So I'll try to be patient. Darn miscommunication. dreaming aloud at 9:50 PM
03 September 2003ARGH I JUST LOST MY ENTIRE POST.I have a question. It asks you, would you like to save this post or leave without saving? And I clicked save because I still wanted to retrieve it...but of course it saves and then takes you to the thing you clicked on by accident. So where does it save the posts to??? I WANT IT BACK. I'M NOT RETYPING IT ALL. ARGH. dreaming aloud at 11:40 PM

02 September 2003Ok I just realized that my last post says "I just came back from SF," but I took a while to write this post because I was talking to people online as I was writing. So I didn't get home at 1. More like 10:30. HAHA. (But I didn't start writing until...12?) WOW it took me an hour to write all that? How pathetic.dreaming aloud at 1:16 AM
Blueberry cheesecake never tasted so good. I just came back from the Cheesecake Factory in SF. Yummy stuff. BART is always fun. We celebrated Amaris' bday, sorta...except we sang happy birthday to Chris!!! HAHAHA. Virgin strawberry daquiri, HUGE breakfast burrito (what was it called? Sunrise Fiesta Burrito?) -- btw, breakfast food is SO GOOD at night! -- shared with Chris, and a slice of blueberry cheesecake shared with Jeff. I almost got Chris delirious!! So close. But then Amaris totally ditched me for Joanne. So I got sad. Haha. So no more delirium. Well ok, there was more delirium. But in random spurts. (Yes, I'm weird. Ignore me.) Anyways. This is the first time I've gone to the Cheesecake Factory to eat cheesecake and NOT gotten a stomach ache afterwards! Yay! Oh I forgot to mention that we had a 40 minute wait. So we all went off in different directions. The guys went to...Nike wherehouse? And Borders? (And we thought they were gonna go to Metreon...haha free games.) Christina and Rosa went to Sephora to look at makeup. And Amaris, Jo, and I went to Jessica McClintock. Since we were bored and needed to kill time, we decided to pick out dresses for the other two to wear...one that we would never ever want to buy or even think about trying on, and one that we thought would look good on the person. So I got the worst out of all of them. Aiya. A shockingly bright pink granny dress. Ugh. But then we found a really pretty gold dress that I really like now and maybe want. Haha. So I guess it all evens out. We made Jo try on a black dress with like a sheer midriff, and then a strapless patterned one (the material and pattern were SO cute). And for Amaris, we picked out a candy pink strapless poofy dress, and then a silvery-gray spaghetti strap dress (the back was cool). Um. Back to Cheesecake Factory. Funny moment: "No gun, no fun." - Chris Whoa. He discovered that he can rhyme. Hehe. Ehh, lots of random stuff happened tonight. I can't even record all the weird moments. Fun stuff though. "Would you like some funny-ly cake-ily?" - me and Amaris when somewhat delirious (again). Anyway. So I slept at around 4:30 last night (this morning?) because of a good conversation on AIM with a certain Mike Lee, who is NOT BORING and NOT OLD (I know you're reading this, Mike! You really aren't. Old or boring.). Don't feel bad for "keeping me up," cuz it was fun. But I got woken up by a certain someone [*ahem*Jeff*ahem*] at 9:30...waking up to your cell phone ringing is a weird feeling. At least usually it's the regular house phone. But it's good that I got woken up, cuz otherwise I wouldn't have gotten up in time to make phone calls about tonight's dinner. Wow, this is the latest last-minute planning we've ever done for group things. Hey, we're getting better! :) Less stressed, hopefully. And then I went out for lunch (well, grocery shopping and lunch) with my family at the Pacific East Mall...Ranch 99, 168, and all those other stores. I had stinky tofu today!! Yay! YUM. I know everyone thinks it's soo gross, but I love it. Taiwanese food is the best. So that made me and my tummy really happy. And then we went to visit my grandma in Oakland. I actually talked to her a lot more today. That also made me happy. Using my (poor, broken) Chinese, and cheering her up a bit. :) And then...we went home, and I had a little time before I had to be at the BART station, so I went online cuz I didn't know what else to do. (I'm dumb, I should have just watched TV. Because I always spend more time than I mean to online, when chatting. So silly me, of course I spend too much time, and then I had to change, and rush to BART -- and, as always, I was late.) Well, I got to drive today, anyway. To BART. Haha. I haven't driven in soo long. Ok I think this post is long enough. I feel like I haven't blogged in FOREVER. So just thought I'd write a bit today. But now I'm done. dreaming aloud at 1:03 AM
