it's tough

...life, that is. I got a lot of stuff to think about. Family, friends, school, whatever. but hey, I guess that's life.

too much has happened, so I'll just jot down what I remember. well, I'm getting paid, 'cause I work in my family's bakery in Vallejo. good stuff. I'm finally getting money to get stuff I think I really need: clothes. call me materialistic, I don't care. I really like to buy stuff. it's whatever, but still. I also need to get that TE arcade stick (really worth the $150?).

Summer's been going good too. I just came back from New Jersey. and I must say, White Castle is bomb. I wish we had a few of them here. But you know, honestly, I can't really tell the difference between the microwaved ones and the real ones. haha, so it's not all that bad, I guess. I also got to be in a wedding as a groomsmen. I wore a tuxedo and all that. It felt like prom. sigh, good times.

I've noticed a lot of people saying that they can't wait for college. But that's only for some people, 'cause I know some who don't want to go back to all the stress and pressure that is called "college". But as for me, I'm kind of in the between. I mean, don't get me wrong. college is great. experience after experience. But I like being laid back and doing nothing but chill. I like the feeling when I can wake up at any time I want to. I have so much free time, it's craaazy. But I also can't wait for college too. I guess it's more like something for me to do, and also for me to fix a couple of things I wish I did my first year. If anything, I wish my second year will be much much better. But I know it's only me who can make that happen.

Plus I need to turn in my clinical shit and parking permit application to USF. lol, fml.

sup.

long time no blog. but don't fear! here, i am. nothing's been going on really. school ended, i significantly raised my GPA, so i'm back to my confidence dealing with schoolwork.

but recent events that happened are: Fanime and Santa Cruz trip.

Fanime '09 was sick. saw so many cosplayers, and some were actually real sick. like this one Master Chief from Halo; i'll post a picture later. But it felt nice being around people with a common interest: anime, anime, and anime. it's not really a feeling i feel very often.

Santa Cruz trip was tiiiring. I was driver, and it was just me, matt, and joanne. me and matt picked up joanne, and then we were headed off! we came to surprise mine and matt's friend kimi for her 19th birthday. and then we ate at this bomb chinese buffet. shit, it was 4 star status. and for only $12. it may seem expensive, but i got my money's worth. haha.

but enough of that, i'm blogging now mainly to let out some thoughts. thoughts about one thing that's one every student's mind right now: summer. it's a time to hang out with friends without the pressure of school. but it's hard for me, since i barely have time to spend with other people. i feel that even though it is summer, i still have to juggle my life and organize my time for other people. i like my friends, and i love the time spent, it's just that it's hard to keep track. i don't know, i feel that i should be able to do it, but i don't know what i'm lacking in. and right now, i just want to give a big shout out to john uy, 'cause i always know you try hard for me to hang out with you, but i sometimes come short. but i just wanted you to know that i'm gonna try harder. i only say this right now, 'cause i know you're gonna read my blog 'cause you told me to update. alright, much love.

pz, <3, and ice cream.

studying studying studying.

I haven't posted in awhile. so I'm just do a real quick update.

I've been feeling a whole lot better overall. no more emo kid in the corner. that's what's up. I feel like things are looking up for me, school-wise and relationships-wise. Balancing it out is still no easy task, but I'm a trooper, so I think I can handle it. My latest obsession: Korean dramas. Wtf man? I didn't think I'd see the day. I've finished watching Coffee Prince, and I'm not gonna lie, I cried a bit. It just totally got to me. And now I'm watching Soulmate, which is pretty good in its own right. However, I recommend Coffee Prince. I believe there's this underlying message that I should get across, but it's just way too deep for people to get if they haven't watched it. So go. watch. cry. :)

I got a midterm in about 4 hours. I'm really chill about it. I feel like I got everything down. But I want to stay up late. I don't think it's a good idea, since I have to drive tomorrow, but I just can't sleep. I plan to sleep at my friend's house. I also want to bring my digital SLR again for those sunny days. Capturing beauty is one thing, but showing its true beauty is something I plan to do. Anyways, I don't have any cool-ass pictures, but here's a picture of myself right now as I write at 4:42 a.m. tee hee. :D

WDYWT: Levi's 511's, Plaid shirt, H&M sweater, Van's Sk8.
nah, i'm just kidding. I don't wear good enough shit to post about. I just want to pretend I'm cool in this one post.

YES! YES! A MILLION TIMES YES!

Yes! I've watched Yes Man yesterday. I'm gonna review/contemplate about this movie now. In a nutshell, it's about a man who vowed to always say yes to everything. There's something about how it will open up more opportunities and if you just say no or avoid something all together, you will get some kind of negative karma. There is some truth in this. I've always wondered what would happen if I said yes to everything; there can be some kind of good consequence, but hey, if I said no, how would I ever know, right? Now, I strive to make opportunities happen to me now. I don't really want to live life like a routine; I like spontaneity sometimes in my life. I mean, who doesn't?

The movie, overall, is a hit or miss. It's either you like the comedy or you don't. But it does leave the watchers thinking though. Seriously, how different my life would be if I said YES to everything? but yeah, I would recommend it to Jim Carrey fans. And oh! One thing that bothered me somewhat was that Jim Carrey was pretty old compared to his friends and main girl! I was like...wow, so sad. But yeah, I liked the movie. Byah! 'Til next time. And here's a couple of pictures from the other day since I don't have any from the movies yesterday. D:
