In case you're wondering, those are types of balloons :] and this post dedicated to Sarah's birthday, but I wanted a title more interesting then "Happy Birthday Sarah Zhang!"

cuz that goes down there

Happy Birthday

SARAH ZHANG

I hope you had a really fun/happy/good birthday, and from what little I saw of you it looked like it so I'm happy. ^^ I kinda don't know what to say here because I already said stuff on your card...but your camera was really really cute :O or your mom's camera. whatever (:

You're fifteen now though :D so you congratulations on that! and work on that to-do list yeah? (;

You're a terrible wife, but a really cool person :D and you give my life some spice :] so thanks for that. Especially with random e-mails and messages <3. (that you eventually forget about, but today's your birthday so I'm not talking about that [: )

and now I will blind you with yellow, because it's pretty como tu :D

so you can keep being pretty, and save money on new clothes ;] because you're beautiful without a new outfit every day (;

and someday I'll take a picture with you on a camera that isn't your moms :] if you'll let me [x

~Chris

p.s. Sorry that I have play practice and for the balloon. >.<

Bloody Blood!

Yes I realize I haven't blogged in a while, but it's ALRIGHT. *cougharchiecough* :]

So yesterday I think I set a record for myself :D I slept 13 hours. I guess I was really tired after the bus ride to and from Torrance or something o.o but anyway, I was really tired [x so I fell asleep at 8, and woke up at 1. Then I changed into PJ's and slept until 9 [x so yeah, I'm quite proud of myself :D

Anywho, I was feeling fat and lazy this morning from sleeping so long, so I ran to the Key Club volunteering thing at Liberty Park, and ended up getting there super early and wandering around like some loner idiot -__-x until Sarah and Emily Liu came, and we sat with Abraham Lincoln [x Then we had Avi, Afraz, Eric Ho, Ellie, Sarah, Emily, me, and Grace Lee. :] We went to the building that used to have the summer camp and got makeup :D Avi got a "screwed" ;D in the chest, and then totally ABUSEDDD AND MURDERED AND SLAUGHTEREDDD D: the joke about him getting "Screwed in the park" but whatever [x Afraz had some bones sticking out of his neck, and I had a bloody eye, ear, and nose :] Sarah had a bloody nose, but somehow she was more severe than the rest of us [x except for Afraz, but whatever [x

Guys don't like volunteering >.> I kinda realized that, cuz there were only us 4 guys out of the 17? people we had there, which is pretty sad :/ but Red Cross is full of guys :] so there is hope!

So after volunteering we decided to go to the mall (Ellie, Sarah, Avi, moui) and Ellie and Sarah insisted on putting balloons under their shirts all the way through the Cerritos Auto Square -____-x Sarah wore Avi's shirt though ;D and I guess we came to the conclusion that Avi made them both pregnant (; Avi also says that indians are naturally horny, thus their huge population [x

Anywho...so we get to the mall (Avi and I in full makeup :]) and walk around. Honestly I'm so surprised at how no one asked what happened, or if we're ok -__-x even though I look bruised and beaten up, and avi's got a screw in his chest. maybe because it's close to halloween, or the fact that we're just walking around [x but yeah. you'd think someone would say something. I failed at trying to find a jacket, and Macy's make-up ladies have no sense of humor --x (if you want to know the story ask.)

Then Sarah and Ellie leave, and Avi and I walk to my house :]

The End.

p.s. Now I get to work on my Hall essay, math hw, and beg my mom to go to Santa Monica tomorrow :D

bye~

I miss you.

So today my sister went to JKI w/ Tiff, and I don't go to chinese school anymore, so I got to sleep in :D I woke up at 8:45 though >.> but I honestly thought it was like 10 something. I went to bed late too O.o so that's kinda weird.

Most of this morning was spent slacking off :D which really helps you feel happy.

Oops. completely forgot about Hello xD Hello was alright. :/ I think I might have danced more than Aloha (which is improvement), but at least there was lip sync :] which was REALLY REALLY fun to watch. Good job everyone :] (I'd list names but I'm afraid I'd forget someone and feel bad about it later ><)

Sarah actually came this time, even though it was because of her sister. :P and she had some fun (; hehe.

Shafqat and I had some fun xD weird but interesting fun. Dancing to "You Belong with Me" [x which is totally random to hear at a dance. but ok (: everyone was gone by then anyway for lipsync. but I honestly think that was the highlight of the dance for me besides lip sync ^^

So back to today. This afternoon I made a new friend :D and no we DIDN'T HAVE FUN *coughalicecough* Her name's Nicole and she's in 11th grade at a Christian Highschool somewhere. So I guess my mom somehow volunteered me to help her with Chem and Math? O_o iono. but yesterday she's like "Oh my coworker's daughter needs some help and I thought you could help." >.> well at least I could xD turns out I couldn't do anything about her chem cuz she's in AP this year. but she's doing trig for math, so we spent an hour on trig. Then we watched Wall-E while our parents talked :] I'm pretty sure I'll see her again eventually. She's cool ^^ (and white :DDD)

Then I vacuumed the house and FINALLY got something to eat >.<>

I'm looking forward to tomorrow (: though I don't especially like guacamole.

goodbye~

It's always harder to blog when everything's going right. but it's nice to live it up and enjoy it a while. Posts get boring too, when you post about useless stuff like what you did during the day. Down the the very last detail o.o I mean people's days are interesting, but not every little thing [x

I feel like I've been neglecting my private blog :[ haven't posted in forever. I guess that's kinda good though (: Trusting people is nice when you actually can. I seriously have to find a guy best friend or something though --x explanation for that later. If I ever think about it again. It's really depressing though. So hopefully no time soon (: because that can't be a good thing.

We had a cute little homeroom rep meeting during lunch today >_> and Improta was giving me a freaky stare >.<>

Mini-Rant (:

Ever try practicing singing when you can't let your family hear, because they definitely aren't going to give you any positive feedback --x kinda depressing. I really want to though, cuz I haven't heard myself in a while and I'm afraid I'm getting worse [x and I really wanna be in spring musical.

thanks for reading~

p.s. Sarah go post :O :D

Reverse Pickup-Lines (a.k.a. Dump-Lines) (:

Ever try making some up? (: it's kinda fun when you're in the mood for it. Here's a mean one.

"If I had a dime for every time you said you loved me I'd throw it right back and tell you to shut up." (not very good, but you get it)

Soooo guess what? :D I watched ANOTHER movie today. It's called The Code, and it had Morgan Freeman and Antonio Banderas in it. It reminded me of Wanted. The one with Angelina Jolie. anyway, it wasn't very good >.> (HA SARAH!!) The plot was pretty interesting actually, but it was very dirty...and evidently boobs are considered R, not NA-17 >_> which I found out for all you good children out there. (Alice probably already knew though). I think they cussed too, but I've been hearing so much lately it kinda doesn't even register anymore --x

So today was my Aunt's birthday (: I have no idea how old she is, but my dad does, so I'm glad someone does =] My only other white relative besides my dad. How depressing :[ but my dad promised that someday he'd show me his cousins O.o so they'd be my.............iono you tell me [x

Avi finished his movie today? I think, and had a celebratory dinner at one of my least favorite restaurants in Cerritos, but he was kind enough to invite me anyway (: thanks Avi. but unfortunately I couldn't go. :] I think I want to make a movie myself. A documentary of how Avi has changed since the day Emily Chang began walking the halls of Whitney. (; hehe.

Fun may happen tomorrow (: we shall see.

~Chris

p.s. Alice, I still think you should come up with a better plan ): I don't like your other one.

p.p.s. Sarah, if you ever used tags, you'd know that they alphabetize them for you (;

"Me, I finish things."

So I watched Gran Torino today, and it was REALLY REALLY good (: a lot of profanity though, so I wouldn't suggest it to people who tend to act like the movie they just watched (yes it happens.)

really though! it was soo good (: well, I say that about most of the movies I watch, so I guess I'd be a pretty bad movie critic. but on the bright side, I enjoy movies when I see them =]

then I drafted that ^ and went to go......do something...I can't even remember o.o

and then I had to draft that ^ cuz my dad wanted me off the computer --x so I'm up at 4:30am for no real reason. so yeah (:

oh, something funny happened to me today (:

So this girl called me to tell me she's going to call, and then she doesn't call x] ironic? or is that the wrong word for it?

Schedules, Schedules, Schedules. they're everywhere. I currently have 0 classes with Alice and Sarah, so I'm kinda afraid to exchange schedules anymore --x I like just going to classes and seeing who's there :] but I am not sure if I'm that patient. on the bright side, I got a good locker =] not as good as Alice though >.>

Did you guys know Raymond Lin can drive? :D and he's pretty good too. which reminds me of another funny thing. So, Key Club is doing TV tapings? and they get some money from it, and 7 SENIORS are going, and they all don't have rides. [x isn't that sad? that'd be depressing if senior year I didn't have a car to drive :[

bye now~

p.s. Come back soon Joe :]

Home is where the heart is.

But I have two homes, so does that mean my heart will always be torn?

Back in the US now, but anyone who reads this anymore knows that already (:

I kinda miss it there =/ mostly the moisture [x but the food, the cheapness, the carefree-ness. It really felt like a vacation (: buy what you want (except shirts, which is like THE WHOLE POINT D: (rant to follow)), sleep when you want, eat what you want. it's nice.

The plane ride back wasn't as good as going. I got one seat, next to some guy and his kid. You know kids get better food on planes?! D: it looks more friendly. and they get pudding :[ I was jealous. anyway, watched X-men, Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, and Star Trek. Ghosts was actually pretty good. I liked it (: the brother almost made me cry though :O

There really is nothing to do back home though. I've been really busy and kinda stressed with Red Cross planning, but other than that there's really not much else to do. I talk to Tina a lot [x and have resorted to playing Maplestory --x I'm hoping to meet up with Avi and Paley sometime next week though :] so that should be fun. Guy's night out >:O only prob not gonna be at night xD Tina and I planned a beach trip too, so hopefully we can do that :D

Welcome home Sarah Zhang, and good luck reading through all my boring adventures in Taiwan (: the e-mails were kinda interesting, but I can't post about those (;

I'm really out of it though. I loved just being so free in Taiwan, being immature, being stupid, having fun when nothing's funny. Now I get to come home and be serious and do stuff right and concentrate. What a bummer. :]

~Chris

p.s. one last thing. Don't you hate it when people tell you they miss you when they don't? I mean, why do they even bother saying it if they don't mean it, and you're not asking for it?

Alice....

is a clothing brand in a big superstore kinda place. [x

is a friend in America that I miss.

is a girl in a story that has subliminal sexual messages.

is a nasty little bug >.<>

alright here's my post [x

m’kay so I haven’t posted in a while cuz my uncle took it to work and got it fixed (: so now it can read Chinese, and it can close :D so that’s useful. But then the menus are kinda weird --x and it’s not as pretty, but it’s a FOB computer [x and it’s free. T-minus 2 years and counting for my macbook [x

So anyway, we left my aunt’s house 2 days ago (so for clarification, that was my oldest aunt, and my 2 other aunts live with my grandparents (3 and 4.) so yeah (: my mom’s 2. so anyway, yeah the last days I didn’t blog were stay home days. My sister got a haircut though (: and we made new rules in monopoly w/ the speed die [x but the only person who probably cares about that is Alice, cuz no one else likes Monopoly =/ or that I know of. I love that game (:

I’m ALWAYS ALWAYS hungry D: and I don’t know if I posted that before, cuz I don’t have internet right now -___- I really sound spoiled right now, and I guess I am compared to everyone else here =[ which makes me feel kinda sad and really humbled. I love how cheap stuff is though (: ok back to self-fixing. So Aunt 1 is pretty rich, and so are we in Mei Guo (America for Avi ;]) and now we’re here in Beikang, and no wireless internet, and just yeah. Not what I’m used to. But I think it’s really gonna be good for me :] Especially putting up with my cousin [x you’re gonna hear me rant a LOT about him though xD so please put up with me.

We rode on the high speed train from somewhere near my aunt’s house to somewhere near my grandparents’ house, and driving inbetween xD so yeah. The highspeed train is FAST FAST FAST :O like 100+mph x] no lie. You can look it up (: People stared at me in the train too --x I’m kinda getting tired of stares. But better than the pedo stares Sarah gets in China ;D btw…well more of an FYI…she can’t read this, cuz China blocks blogger, and a whole lot of other stuff which I find quite stupid, but that’s communism for you >_>

Wow this post is getting long [x I seriously hope that you’re reading this in your spare time, cuz it must be really boring. Unless you’re skimming, which you probably are, in which case you might not read this. I’m talking weird =.= must be the English and SAT studying coming out.

You know I can’t think in Spanish anymore? It’s all in Chinese XD so if I come back and speak Chinese to you, and you don’t understand (again Avi x] ) sorry.

Nothing to report except that it took like an hour to set up Chinese highspeed internet [x so yeah. But it needs a cable, so that’s why I’m writing my blog post on Word. So I can copy and paste later (: aren’t I genius? :P

M’kay so now I have to think of something to make this post worthwhile, because I’m sure I’m going to lose what few readers I have to boredom. I’ll serious post tomorrow, because I have a lot on my mind, no one to talk to, and probably nothing to write about tomorrow. In Beikang, we don’t really do much, so yeah. Went shopping today though. My sister’s growing up. She wore short shorts for the first time (x

Music’s pretty much the only thing that keeps me white at this point [x that and my smell and the stares. Can’t get rid of 2 of them, but I like the 3^rd one, so I guess I’ll keep it (:

~Chris

p.s. Sorry for picking on you all the time Avi (: Mandarin isn’t that great (;

p.p.s. Alice, thanks so much for the extra music [x it gives me something to do without internet. But not having cover art and album info kinda kills my OCD.

A GOOD DAY :DDDD

my gosh.........today has been just an amazingly good day (: I'm really glad I'm getting some of these before I leave to go halfway around the world. where the people closest to me will be Tiffany Yeh and Sarah...ewww >.<

Well anyway, so I finished

Fast Food Nation

so that makes me pretty happy (: and I'm going to finish the essay tonight. so be jealous everyone ;D and I'm going to finish the book by tuesday >:] so yeahhhh.......good stuff =] I'm writing the essay for FFN right now, and I really am going to finish this tonight. but it's really hard to fit so much important stuff into one essay. I'm afraid it's gonna be super long >.<>

Anyways (: so about today. Went ice skating with Emily Hwang, Justin, and Pauline (you don't know Justin[or maybe you do]) from like 1:15-3:15 :D and that was fun. The ice was a lot smoother and a lot less people than last time. I failed again at trying to skate backwards but it was fun [x Emily kept trying to make Justin fall down, but he's pretty sturdy xD anyway. they made fun of us guys drinking out of the drinking fountain cuz it was like 2 feet off the ground, and we're like 6 feet w/ skates so yeah >.> kinda weird.

Then we walked to the mall and saw my mom on the way xD and we went to Yogurtland!! :D Justin's never been to Yogurtland, or the movie theaters in the mall D: talk about deprived. So then we went to Bath & Body and you can guess what happened xD

WE WATCHED THE PROPOSAL!!!! Oh mie goodness that is such a good movie. you seriously have to go see it if you haven't. It's cute, and funny, and it's just really really good. so go watch it :D or you can wait for it to come out on DVD, then come to my house and watch it (: I think that's prb funner >:] but go watch it now cuz it's worth it XD

this is seriously a long post o.o

So we were planning on going to Seal Beach on bikes tomorrow? (Avi, Opal, me, and some other people) but I don't think I can cuz I get out of church at 1, and it's kinda hot to bike at 1:30. so I can't go =[ it would have been fun though. so I guess just TWIFing tomorrow :O and maybe playing around on flickr (: I seriously love that website. cuz some of them are really good!!!

Formosa in 4 days :O it's so close!!!! kinda scary [x but I'm excited.

I want to do something on Tuesday, but I don't know who to go with or what to do... :/ quite a predicament. A certain someone wanted to go somewhere at 7/8pm >.> which is kinda not very realistic, but maybe if I'm really really desperate x]

gonna go work again.

bye~

-Chris

Another Last.

Today was my last day of volunteering of this summer, and probably the last time I'll ever see Regina, maybe even Brenda. I might not go back next year =/ depends.

Anyway, today was really fun :D there was this new couple though >.> and they started flirting and PDAing in the freak'n lobby <.<>.> whatever. so I finally figured out how to ride the volunteer's scooter thing :D which made me really happy, cuz I've been wanting to ever since I heard about it. Today was pretty much Gurney day >.> so lots of gurneys, but the good thing is that it takes two people =] so I had company for the whole day. We actually had really good conversation for like the first time :D which is kinda sad cuz it was my last day [x but she's really nice. I love Brenda though =D she's always so cheerful and nice and happy and patient. I wish I could be like her all the time. She kinda reminds me of that lady in To Kill a Mockingbird. The maid lady. cuz she's so protective/iono [x but yeah.

Swim picture today. There's this guy named Grant --x omigosh SOOOO gay D: he's so weird!!! and needs to floss [x but anyway yeah. he kept complaining about my leg, even though it was super tight cramped on the top row >.> (we were standing on bleachers) but yeah.

Jaimini came :D so I had company other than Tina, and Alice was off with Alyssa and her fan club. Then I ended up going on some random walk-adventure thing with Tina on a rocky slope thing, and talking about.......uhhhh.......something stupid x) but she's fun to talk to. Then after the picture we had cake and ice cream and Caprisun, and played with icecubes =D Then Tina and I went on a walk again (how odd O.o) and were looking at those big blue statues at Regional. Has anyone ever really looked at those things? They're about the history of the ocean or something o.o

Then I left. the end. but evidently Alice and her posse and Tina were shouting at me? uhhhhh yeaaahhhhhhh. sorry? x) Tina doesn't talk much on the phone btw. I was talking to her, and all of a sudden it's just quiet, so I hung up.

(btw ppl there are blanks at the end because the list isn't finished (: cuz summer isn't finished)

Hey! I thought I saw you!

Wow.....it's been a while since I last blogged. Well, not really. I have like 3 drafts that I never finished >.<>that badly. Unless you secretly love me (; then tell me so I can look out for stalkers.

So yesterday, I watched the crappiest movie I've ever seen --x like honestly it had the worst plot....actually no plot at all, but it had Nicholas Cage, and his acting was SOSOSOSOSOSOSO amazing. It was actually quite inspiring. (: but the. movie. sucked. so. bad. Honestly watch some clips of it, just to see how great his acting was, but don't waste an hour and a half like I did on that stupid movie =.= btw It's called Vampire's Kiss.

So right now, I could rant about parents and my "siempre mal" attitude, but I'd rather not (: cuz everyone has that, and I'd rather not have a pity party on my blog :D (no offense to everyone who actually does blog like that, do what you like) (:

Instead, I'm going to list everything that's gone right this summer :D but that's going to be on a separate post, cuz yeah (:

Oh joy >.> so my sister is staying in my room to listen to my iTunes, and she cant' find her phone...so she's gonna stay LONGER. but she found it now (: so she's gone. Oh great --x she came back. and I think she's reading this =.= which is VERY ANNOYING and quite distracting. Yay she left again (:

Stuff I still have to plan/do

-Go through Alice's music

-Go to Wild Rivers/Beach? o.o

-Go to Charles' House :D

-Movie Marathon night? =]

-Have Sarah meet my sister

-Finish Human Assignment >.<

-See Alice more.

I need more goals =.=

Honey, we need Therapy.

So today was/is July 5th =] Bloomfield is still closed (the street), and I have no idea why, but that's what they said, which is a little odd o.o since 4th of July is over, but maybe they have to clean up.......extensively.

Anyway, so everything was normal, except that Tim's birthday party was today, so as usual I got there late. This time I was like 2 1/2 hours late [x but at least I got to go.

So I kinda just let myself in [x I have no idea what possessed me to do that, but evidently it was the right thing, cuz later, when people rang the doorbell, Tim didn't wanna go get it xD Alice got tossed into the pool 2350981543 but I was only responsible for like 4 (: Tim did the rest, and Eric did some. but I still kinda feel bad (: (for many things actually xD) so, Sorry Alice!!! =]

Horray for chickenfight fails, Charades, water balloon babies, exposing Tim's secrets, and his really cool mom :D (I still think Alice's still wins though [x)

That questionnaire thing was probably one of the funnest birthday party activity/game things I've ever done in my life XDDD it was so funny and so fun and so intense >:] and of course our team won <3 =D YEAH ISABEL AND SARAH AND RACHEL AND KYLE XP but Kyle'll never see this. xD well I hope not. cuz that'd be kinda odd.

I'm sorry dear!!! for misleading you and abusing your trust!!! I won't do it for a while (: because I feel guilty and quite bad after you explained it like you did [x so yeah. I will be being nice :D and not misleading. and be a good GPS =) Hope that red splat on your back goes away soon. Battle Scars ;D

I iz thinking that Tim is gettingz a newz girlfriendz very soonz (;

~bye

-Chris

p.s. I heard you sing today OTQU (: not bad. a bit louder would have been nice though =]

50%

That's how many of my calls I pick up. No lie.....I pick up 50% of the time. If you'd like, I'll show you the next time I see you.

Now that I think about it, maybe my mom's doing me a favor, pulling me away from connections and communication and just making me sit down for a sec and just stopping. Good stuff. Ignore some calls someday. Put your AIM on invisible and just keep to yourself sometime. It's hard, but you feel so good later. Like it's just you, maybe your family, but just you have control over everything, and you decide who goes in and out of your life.

I make it seem so hard to just not talk to your friends, but it kinda is. Then I look at my family, and my relationship with God, and I'm like. How much time have I been tending with them? Unfortunately not as much as I'd like. Sigh. I love worship though ^^ I don't know. I just feel like, after everything, if I don't listen to the lesson, if I don't understand what they're trying to get me to understand. I'm still there, I'm singing, and it's for Him, and I try to make it more than words, more than a melody. I should really pray more though. but I think God has an easier way of communicating with me, but it's still important.

Today in church, we talked about Gidian, and how he, and no one else, can live up to God's standards, and we somehow got to the subject of grace. Grace is amazing stuff isn't it? (: God just gives us 10 simple rules to live by, and we can't do it for more than 5 or 10 minutes that we're awake.

That 5th commandment though. It's hard (: For Catholic's it's the 4th, but it's all the same. "Honor thy Father and Mother." 5 words. and about 5,000,000,000 mess-ups every day.

but what about sisters? Honestly being a big brother is hard. You're the example, you're the guilty one, you're the protector, you're the punching bag, you're the better one, you're the smarter one, you're the older one. and it sucks because honestly sometimes I just wanna disown her and not have anything to do with her, or any of them. but in the end, they're all you've got. Your friends can move on, or move away, they can die, they can hate you. but in the end, almost always, your family's going to be there, and yes they can die, but unless they are...they're not going to leave you.

Hope you're not too depressed by now [x I could write more on this, but I'd better save it or else i won't have any followers anymore.

So today was BOOORRRRIIINNNGGGGGG D:

Saw some of my friends at church I haven't seen in a while :D talked to Emily (: who none of you know, and then went to Souplantation as usual, and then I napped for about 4 hours. xD cuz my mom wouldn't let me out of the house. We watched Harry Potter 5 at 7. and I read Fast Food Nation from 9:30-10 >:] so I get to be on the computer.

LOL my sister is in love with Harry Potter now, but before she hated everything about them xD so go figure.

NO RESERVATIONS IS A FREAKING GOOD MOVIE :DDDDD go watch it (:

oh gosh --x mom's getting on my nerves again. I'm really bad at this

g'night~

-Chris

p.s. Welcome back Sarah.

p.p.s. My mom just took my phone --x

Only 12-5...6...7

First of all

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRIYANKA :D

Honestly I doubt you'll ever see that [x but yeah........it's the thought that counts (: it just counts more if people see it, so that they know you care.

Today was fun. slept in, and tried to sleep late enough so that I'd wake up after my parents had left. turns out instead I'd end up escorting my mom to Costco [x but it wasn't so bad. COSTCO IS SO EXPENSIVE --X like you just buy stuff, and you buy some stuff out of the coupon book, and it's like BAM $120 O_o scary stuff.

anyways....so I got a curro for breakfast :D and ummmm......yeah. then vacuumed the upstairs. But we might get wood/tile floors this summer >:] so I like the sound of that. plus it's just so much prettier don'tcha think? (: so then off to Priyanka's birthday :D

So much to write about, but I'd rather not [x just to name a little of the stuff we did.

The Tree, Chasing Chris to make him come back, Water Balloon Hugs, Lifting and bringing down people from "The Tree", Dare or Dare fails, Ice, and torture hugs (; that's about it :D remind me if I missed anything Joe/Mary.

Alicealicealicealicealice :O for some reason, I have been having very bad timing with her. it's like trying to high five someone, then missing every time --x and trying to aim for the place they hit last time, just to find they hit the place YOU hit last time [x big sad cycle. She's not going to read this [x so I should seriously stop dedicating paragraphs to people who never read this stuff. but yeah x] that's prb been my biggest problem recently, so not to shabby of a summer. Sister still bothers the crap out of me --x Alice, Sarah, Avi, Catherine, Tiff Liu, and Tiff Yeh can all agree w/ me I'm sure [x

Tomorrow's Sunday :D which means absolutely nothing x] maybe something fun will happen tomorrow. who knows. maybe it will even be as good as today was.

Something Interesting

So I wasn't allowed on the computer last night. but something interesting actually happened yesterday :D so I thought I'd blog.

I honestly think I'm going to stop blogging about Health, just because I have nothing good to say about it besides it's boring. but I have Abi and Sarah to brighten my mornings.

So after, I had tutoring and made some more money :D which is good. then called Sarah like 7 times and left 2 voice mails (notmuch compared to her record) but anyway, finally came over to her house around 2. and then guess what? HER PARENTS COME BACK D: and she's like "OH CRAP! go away go away!" and then they drive away. so I run away and come back in like 10 minutes. kinda creepy cuz I actually thought about them coming back [x but then after that they didn't come back. :D and she didn't get in trouble. so that's good. her mom can recognize me though (; so scary stuff.

We found a place to hide my bike [x and I got to see Rachel's room :D which is really pretty and pink. :D and I got a glimpse of Sarah's room, but she kicked me out ;D but I'll see it eventually.

alright, well I'll finish this later, cuz I've gotta go eat Home Town Buffet. (ewww --x) good cookies though :D

alright, so anyways. ummm Sarah just played on the computer for a while and tried to guess my blogger e-mail. and that didn't work out so well [x then we played Clue with Rachel, which was very boring, so I quit XD and it kinda had something to do with the game going very slowly, and me rolling a 3 >.> 2nd to worst number in the game D: oh well [x then we went to TC and I failed at adjusting my bike. Wal-mart has really cheap food o.o but I don't think I'd walk there if I was hungry [x I'd just wait until my parents came home.

anywaySSSS (; (oh I'm so bad) then we just wandered and Sarah asked Rachel like 2359871398572 times where she wanted to go, and Rachel answered like 2359871398572 times I don't know. :D and then we ended up sitting like loners in Kohls and I got tired so I was just like -___________- then I went home :D and poor Rachel left her cellphone at Kohls =[

Slept

Ate

Went to Polo

You know. I thought I'd suck after like 7 months of no polo, but it wasn't as bad as I thought [x I just have a really bad tan xD but that'll get fixed really quick. you guys should come to our practices sometime :D (esp you girls cuz Sagar's there ;D ooohhhhh) (yes Sagar Shah >.> chill you guys) anyway x] that was my day. and yeah.

Today, nothing interesting like yesterday (: but now I'm ready to start volunteering after all the legal paperwork and whatnot --x I start on Monday =]

-Chris

p.s. Sarah :D have fun on your retreat and don't miss us all too much (; Go make more friends than you already have a get closer to God :D Thanks for letting me come over yesterday too. and tell Rachel she's really nice and prettier than you ;D I think you're leaving really soon. So be safe and I'll miss you ^^

p.p.s. LOL 4 followers now [x my only request is that you don't tell people about this, and let them find it on their own. --x no thanks to Mary Ogawa. (: have fun boring yourselves with my life. xD seriously I prb won't post anything meaningful for a while. and if I do, I'll prb just draft it.

Clue!

Give and Take

Horray --x this sucks.

Alright, so everything was going well this morning. The sun was kinda hidden, I remembered everything I needed to Health. Got up on time, and biked with Ralph w/ no injuries of any sort....

Then things kinda went downhill from there -_______-

So I go there, and they've got me signed up for freaking driver's Ed instead of health, and I kinda need 1st period cuz I've got other things to do during the day. so then I wait for like 30 mins while some lady's passing out schedules which we already got --x and finally she changes it.

btw, I feel really bad for Sarah [x cuz her dad's so protective and stalkerish xD but not, cuz he's her dad. it'd be kinda cute if he wasn't so serious about it.

anyway, so I finally go to class, and there's like no seats --x except for near jeremy wang and one next to David something, who's a senior and likes short answers and not making friends =___= and I'm not gonna blame a certain someone for not saving me a seat, even though the teacher didn't start filling in empy seats until after I came in, cuz it's not like it's that person's problem, or priority >.> I think this is good for me :D cuz I shouldn't blame other people for my problems. it's prb on that success pyramid thing too >_> I hate that thing.

ANYWAYS :DDD so then they got lunch (that we found out later we're not supposed to get x]) then we stayed a while. Saw Alice, and Pauline, and Mary, and yeah :D it felt like school again (: made me happy. and evidently my hair looks dyed now XD according to Tiff.

So then (problem #2), Sarah's kinda confused w/ her dad, but finally ends up going home, so Ralph and I tag along. and it's fun, my butt and _______ kinda hurt (: but I ended up walking my bike and it was a good waste of time :D then she finally got home, and we rode back. You know, actually it's really hard to have a conversation while riding a bike w/ someone, so it's kinda awkward, but there's nothing you can do about it xD so it's kinda not awkward anymore. so anyway I get home, and it's late x] and my dad's like WTHECK! HEALTH ENDED AT 10 WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?! BAD SON! stuff like that =[ and I deserve it cuz I didn't call. but then he has to go all overboard on me and say that I can't bike anymore --x so that kinda ruined my day.

I think I'll prb be able to bike sometime around 5/6pm today (: if everything goes well. I'm kinda crafty like that XD which is bad sometimes, but usually I don't use it for anything bad.

Then (problem #3) my mom reminds me that I have to interview this one dude. --x and here's the story. so I have to turn in contact info for Dalley, and I didn't have my interview yet, so I had to fake it. but then, I get an interviewee the next day, but then my mom already asked, and it's rude to be like "oh we don't need you anymore" so I've gotta interview him next week D: wonderful. but that's also my fault --x so pretty much, I've just screwed myself over pretty bad XD

but each one was kinda a win-lose situation. I just got both ends of it xD but it was worth it =]

bye again~

Father's Day

So of course, Father's Day today >.<>Well it wasn't a complete failure. (: just had some complications this morning.

Kinda worse than usual, but not too bad =] it got better :D

Finally donated my 10% to church today D: I kept forgetting.

oh, well so anyway, I got another job xD a summer job. I got a raise too :D so yay me x]

(sorry Sarah [x you're prb like "WTF so lucky" right now xD)

Anyywayyyys (: ended up getting my dad a card and writing some nice stuff in there (: that I will not be sharing, and a CD of relaxing/calming music :D and I think I like it too so I'll put it on my iTunes later ;D

So this week is health --x which I think is one of the most pointless classes for already educated kids (like ourselves). it should be subjective.....like people who live in bad neighborhoods, or people that actually NEED to learn about living healthy and STD's =.=' oh well. get to see friends on a daily basis for 5 weeks. So let's see. I've got Sarah, Ralph, Abi, and and and....I think I'm missing someone >.<>

Alright, so planning time.

Monday - Health and swim

Tuesday - Health and give Abi a ride home and swim

Wednesday - Health and volunteering orientation and swim

Thursday - Health and tutoring and swim

Friday - Health and swim and Mary's house? possibly.

So I've gotta find something to do to replace swim XD or just to do something for Mon and Tues, but I'll figure out something.

Today's sermon was about being humble, but it didn't really hit hard, because I think I'm doing pretty good with that.

but I guess not >.> cuz I just said that ^ which is pretty hypocritical, which I hate D: GAAAHHHH!

yay --x now I have to go play basketball

bye dears~

Last Day of School.

I'm not going to post about school, cuz not much happened except running around, calling mom, and signing inserts. and SOMEONE writing on my hand >.> in PERMANENT marker x] but it's gone now so it's ok.

Wow i post so late D: I hate getting behind on important stuff that you HAVE to post <.<>

So anyway, afterschool, we ended up NOT walking to TC <3>:] so I'ma try it sometime. Sarah, Mary & Joe went w/ Ralph and Allen to see Night at the Museum, so didn't see them much. and I was freak'n loner bag watcher D: oh well. [x so then movie theatre was packed, and I ended on the edge seat w/ some random girl >.> so I just left and sat on the bottom (: then Archie and BJ came to keep me company.

Afterwards, went to Alice's house. Played some Rockband, ate some pizza, and then SOME PEOPLE tried to scare me from inside the closet xD but that didn't work out too well. Then Jeremy and Angel and Tiff left, so it was just Catherine, Alice and me. they abused me ;P Then we had graduation with really really pretty fireworks and Wendy was Valedictorian :O I was like WOAH :DDD omigosh >.< much ="">

Makes you wonder how it feels to be older. and be an adult. when you're out in the world on your own w/o your parents close by all the time. when you can't just go home and lie in bed when you want to hide from the world. And then what about when my sister graduates? I can't even imagine her becoming an adult and growing up and leaving (x I guess it's a family bond thing, that she'll always be my little sister.

sorry if my blog bores whoever reads this already. I'll post something more meaningful soon (:
