Friends will be the end of me. I sacrifice so much sleep for them. But s'all good, I love you guys. But ahh! Why am I still online? I'm getting off now. Yay for me. And for hot showers and sleep.

Maybe I should try going without AIM or the phone for...a day. Haha maybe a week if I feel adventurous. Hm. Let's see how long I can last.

Darn you, Amaris! I want a Nutri-grain bar. Blueberry. But I'm settling for a piece of pumpkin cranberry bread.

Woohoo I'm pretty much done with senior paper! I keep looking over it, wanting to edit more (being the nerdy perfectionist I am). But I have to wake up early tomorrow and make photocopies of two poems. I hope I get to school on time. When is the paper due? 7:45?! AHHH I have to wake up super early. Much earlier than my usual 7:30. Haha I'm so lazy.

Too much to write about, too little time. I'll write more later.

i don't like how blogger does not let me post with spaces. why must it left margin align everything?

oh well. i copied the poem into a word document.

even though i've been falling asleep all day, today has been awesome. i have great friends. who needs anyone else? :)

i love the familiarity of voices. hearing them is like slowly drinking something wonderfully warm, liquid and comforting, running down your throat smoothly and savoring the taste on your tongue, and the warmth spreading into your stomach and reaching all your insides and wrapping around your body, your hand, your heart, and trickles into every crevice and soon you are smiling from the inside out.

What's with all the Mustangs at school?

dreaming aloud at 1:20 AM



My cousin and his girlfriend are trying to convince me to go to UCLA. And they both went to Cal! Now Greg's at UCLA for grad school, and Yi Yin is at USC. Pshaw. I'm wavering again...

They do have valid points. Especially because Yi Yin was a bio major for a while. But...Andy and Pam and all them said the bio program was pretty good! And Andy majored in bio at Cal. I give up. I don't know. Back to debating between the two again.

AHHHHH I hate college. Even though I really want to go, badly. But I can't freakin make up my mind. I know what I want, but I don't know if it's the right choice.

So I gave in and went on AIM. And there's not really anyone to talk to anyway. But at least the mindless chatter keeps me awake. More or less. Back to work I go. I wrote...one sentence. Oh boy...it's gonna be a l o o o n g night.

dreaming aloud at 11:46 PM



It's so hard not to go on AIM...

Senioritis is definitely kicking in at top speed. I haven't done any homework since Monday. I've started to do some English homework tonight, but I can't concentrate at all. My fingers are itching to sign in AIM and talk to people, or pick up the phone and call someone. But I know I shouldn't. I have SO MUCH junk to do and I just want to sleep. Curses to senior paper. I just want to work on the project, darnit!

Maybe someone will call me and keep me awake to do work. Or just to keep me company. Or just to say hi. Or goodnight. Because they'll probably sleep earlier than me. Although I'm seriously considering scrapping all the work I have to do and just going to bed early. But no. I can't. Senior paper. After this stupid English assignment I'm not going to fully complete. I'm going to stop whining now and actually get some work done. Everyone ignore this pointless post. I just needed to talk/type to SOMEone. Heckove sad. I'm talking to my blog. Or me. Or...something. I dunno. I'm not even making sense anymore. Why am I still here?

forget it i'm going to sleep.

dreaming aloud at 12:34 AM



Today has been a brainless, lazy day. Relaxing and not, because things are hanging over my head, my to-do list growing longer by the minute, and still I sit here, typing away; still I am on the phone, talking away. At least I enjoy myself. I guess it could be considered productive, and definitely worth my time, because I value people over other work (like schoolwork, ick). Although it'd be nice to get things done. And sleep early. I wonder what that's like. To sleep early every day. How do people do it? These last few days I've been talking on the phone way too much. Since I got back from So-Cal I guess. Every time I do, I have to plug my phone into its charger because it keeps running out of battery. There is too much to say about the road trip, so I won't. Not now. And college decisions too. I'm sure all of you know where I'm headed anyway. I'm so excited to work on my poetry book! I stayed up til 3 or 3:30 last night, gathering all my poems together, and sifting through the junk. There is a LOT of junk. Some poems I'm rather pleased with though. And I love (y)our cover and title idea. :) Thanks Justin. Where are my Matchbox Twenty cds, btw? :) About the poetry book...I need to know how many copies to print. Hm. I wonder who actually wants one. If you do, let me know. Another note to self before I forget: I think people owe me money. For the yearbook page still. But I forget who does. I think it's Jo, Christina, Felicia, Susu, and Rosa. But I could be wrong. Did you already pay me back, Freesh? And Amaris and Christian, for Applebee's. And Peter Brown, for Senior Banquet. Ok this was a long useless post but I just felt like rambling. And reminding myself of things. Let's see if I can get some English homework done. But doubtful. Very doubtful.

Darn, no Disneyland. Goodbye for three days. Yeah So-Cal! :)

Getting stuff in the mail is fun. Non-college related, that is. And no bills either.

Davis is an option. I love the luxuries of being an Integrated Studies student! (I hope I am one...I can't find my letter, so I'm not sure.) And the money doesn't hurt either. It's very homey and comfortable and safe...I'm just afraid I'll get bored, with no busyness around. So that's why Cal is appealing. I think I really like NorCal. I dunno if I can leave. But that might change when we visit LA and SD this week...road trip!! Woohoo!! :) And maybe Disneyland? :)

Break needs to be longer.

You feel so far away. But I know it is me who left.

i want a boyfriend.

open my heart to love again


I just watched Moulin Rouge. Was so much better than I expected. Cried buckets. Still want a typewriter.

Spent the afternoon in SF. Beautiful weather, great company, fun driving. :) Thanks, chauffeur.

Was more exhausted than I thought. Going to crash.


when did i close myself off?
