yay for thanksgiving! i could never really list what i was thankful for because really i should be thankful for everything in my life, except for these two bugbites on my arm, but everything good or bad teaches me something. i just hope that i'm smart enough to learn the lessons. anyways, my favorite part about thanksgiving is the food (duh). yum yum yum. i spent the morning cleaning my room because my aunt is sleeping in my room, so i rearranged and moved my bed and cleaned and vaccumed. and then i helped my mom cook!! yay!! the only sucky part is that my mom bought a pre-made turkey to ease the hustle of today. except it was smoked and i'm not the biggest smoked meat fan... boo :( oh well, everyone else enjoyed it. plus we had tons of yummy side dishes. last night i went to howe's and bought everything i wanted for thanksgiving. hehehe. i also really like cooking, it's fun!

Love to eat turkey
'Cause it's good
Love to eat turkey
Like a good boy should
'Cause it's turkey to eat
So good
Turkey for me
Turkey for you
Let's eat the turkey
in my big brown shoe
Love to eat the turkey
At the table
I once saw a movie
With Betty Grable
Eat that turkey
All night long
Fifty million Elvis fans
Can't be wrong
Turkey lurkey doo and
Turkey lurkey dap
I eat that turkey Then I take a nap
Thanksgiving is a special night
Jimmy Walker used to say Dynomite
That's right
Turkey with gravy and cranberry
Can't believe the Mets traded Darryl Strawberry
Turkey for you and
Turkey for me
Can't believe Tyson
Gave that girl V.D.
White meat, dark meat
You just can't lose
I fell off my moped
And I got a bruise
Turkey in the oven
And the buns in the toaster
I'll never take down
My Cheryl Tiegs poster
Wrap the turkey up
In aluminum foil
My brother like to masturbate
With baby oil
Turkey and sweet potato pie
Sammy Davis Jr.
Only had one eye
Turkey for the girls and
Turkey for the boys
My favorite kind of pants
Are corduroys
Gobble gobble goo and
Gobble gobble gickel
I wish turkey
Only cost a nickel
Oh I love turkey on Thanksgiving
-adam sandler
this my favorite thanksgiving day song

wow i'm actually posting from home. i'm not tired because i had a mocha to keep me awake while i went to my first night shift back at the gap (i'm going to get into so much trouble buying too many clothes i don't need) and i need caffeine to get me through the 12 hour/2 job work day. tomorrow morning it's going to kick me in the ass.
i'm pretty excited because next week i'm gonna go see jc chasez in concert at the hob anaheim. oh yea. yeah i know my sister makes fun of him and says he's gay, and he looks god awful with that long hair, and who knows what's going on with *nsync (they're TOTALLY getting back together for another album, duh) but i'm REALLY excited to see him in concert. although i've heard his new stuff isn't going to be so pop, and a little different. i hope i can enjoy it at the first listen. but also tony lucca is going to be opening for him. and although i didn't fall at his feet, i did enjoy him lots and am excited that a) jc is cool like that and helps bring his friends along the road of fame when he can and b) that i'm going to get to see both of them at one show. i know ann is screaming and jumping up and down with excitement, this is like her dream concert. good thing we bought tickets to the anaheim show and not the sunset one. no hollywood traffic/parking and tony lucca. jc is also playing at spreckles theatre in san diego.. *sigh* i miss sd.
one last tidbit o' fun. philly had this way interesting post on her website.. it was awakening to see the responses she got. it makes you realize that the world is a giant play and you're not the only actor.

i think because the last post was so long i got too pooped out to blog again.. but i just started the cycle over because this will probably end up being another long post. i'm lame. i know. but in all fairness i was pretty busy this week :P and plus after i lost, i realized that i have no friends.. so why bother :P i was too depressed to face the music.
anyhow..i'm back in action.. well. not really but whatever. i'll stop with the stupid sayings now.
this week was like the birthday week o' fun. some events were obviously more fun than others. tuesday vivian wanted to take me out for my birthday because she couldn't make it out this weekend because she had to study and take the GRE. (why so ambitious? :P) so the plan was to meet at Joe's Crab Shack (yum) unfortunately 1 minute after i left my house i tarnished my perfect driving record (plus a few parking tickets) but i got into an accident boo. i scratched my bumper and the other guy's door is crumpled. lesson learned.. don't buy hondas.. they crumpled like aluminum cans. i basically freaked out and called my parents and didn't know what to do. but anyways.. so now i'm not accident free anymore :( shoot.. i knew i shouldn't be hanging around sakura so much, she rubbed off on me. vivian came and got me and we had good food and good chocolate dessert. it was good to talk to her again, good to eat good food. i think that we may have gotten past all the crap, but still aren't as close as we were.. but maybe on the way. we'll see. she offered me a place to stay at her apartment for $25/month to sleep on her couch after i had another huge fight and meltdown with my mom. i would in a heartbeat if i didn't have this temp job and the gap. timing is all off, but there's a reason for everything right?
wednesday was practice, we did the usual going from park to park trying to see if they left their lights on and not getting in trouble for interrupting soccer/flag football games. lame lame lame lame lame. we need do need to make practices more efficient. i hate sucking.
thursday was a busy busy day.. but it was my birthday!!! yay! happy birthday to me!! i went to work - the day before they bought me yummy cuban chicken (kind of like el pollo loco, but way better), thursday i got a pack of gum.. haha.. whoo hoo. afterwards i drove with benji to hollywood for the last show of "here come the fosters" sad sad sad. although it was busy, i still miss it, and i'll miss the people because i don't know if i'll see a lot of them again. except we're gonna go visit one of the actors because he's in the brother bear show at california disney. oh yea. but yea.. i realize more and more that i'd like to do stuff in theater, but it's so hard to break into, and my parent would never support me, and plus i don't have a lot of experience or know how to even know where to begin to do it as a career. hmm. afterwards the cast and friends when to this placed called amagi's on sunset and gower. it was a karaoke/bar/thai-japanese restaurant. which was really really good :) nicole and benji came with me (see.. i do have friends!) and they made me sing songs and drink and eat. they made me have a good time. bastards. but i got to chit chat one last time with a few of the cast members, have them freak nicole and just all around good times. when i finally got nicole agree to sing a song, we were going to do it together, but we were WAY down at the bottom of the list. but they gave me a break because it was my birthday and bumped us up, yay! and then had the whole room sing to me. as much as i love that, i also always hated lots of people i didn't know singing happy birthday - like in restaurants in stuff. i think maybe because i feel like other people are annoyed like.. "oh you think you're so special because it's your birthday?" and like that i just want attention and to announce to the whole world it's my birthday. haha.. i don't know.. i have issues.
the next day more celebrations! yay! that night our family went to claim jumper's for dinner. i didn't get steak because i didn't think i was in the mood for it, but my dad ordered it and i basically ate his dinner and a little bit of my chicken. haha. there was a whole ton of people celebrating their birthdays there. the waiter asked us if we wanted dessert and i was kind of bummed we didn't get a free one because it was my birthday, but we had a cake at home so we said no. and then as we were leaving i got up and turned around and there was the waiter with a slice of ice cream cake (the best kind) and was all like "aww. you don't want us to sing to you?" i felt dumb, but i was thought they weren't going to do it because it was pretty late and the only reason we were still sitting was because my sister had to go to the bathroom. but anyways.. i turned and sat back down all embarassed and had the best ice cream cake i've had in awhile. yum yum yum.
then went home had more birthday cake (chocolate!) (this is why i love birthdays.. haha) and got ready to go out. as usual we were late and manny and jill and carrie called me a lot to see where i was and i made them wait (sorry guys). we finally got to sharkeez, waited in line, tried to get manny in, but he wasn't feeling it anymore, waited some more, finally got in (right before nicole showed up :( ) and danced and drank. 10 shots and 3 drinks later (collectively between sakura, carol and i) we stumbled out of the club and sakura, carol, benji, carrie, jill and i met up with jimmy, manny, ryan, beth and nicole and a few of us straggled over to the kettle while the no fun people went home (just kidding.. it was 2am already). the kettle was fun.. we just ate and talked, i swear i'm not a mean drunk, don't listen to manny.. he's perpetuating LIES. but i also got my present from carrie, sakura and nicole. YAY! i got the felicity season 1 (oh yea) and dawson's season finale dvd's (whoo hoo) and the 2004 chippendales calendar (sexxxy) too bad november is an ugly month. but we flipped through it and screamed and cat called to a calendar while all the guys just rolled their eyes. hahah. thanks girls!! i LOVE it!
saturday i watched ucla get beat down, watched hugh jackman in oklahoma! (boo... musicals thhs 114), cleaned a little bit and headed to disneyland (late of course.. again) and FINALLY watched fantasmic (but we got jipped because they didn't have the GRAND finale), drank hot cocoa, rode the carousel and peter pan and just enjoyed the loveliness of the holidays at disneyland. :) it's the first time i've been to disneyland during the holidays.. i always wanted to go to their "very merry.. merry merry christmas!" but never got to. i'm glad i get to now... they do the holidays right. oh.. and the churro man flirted with nicole, he wanted to her to ride his "churro ride" hahha.
sunday was the waffles second game. we lost, by a lot, which is sad because the other team just stopped trying and still kicked the crap out of us. go waffles.
anyhow..i'm back in action.. well. not really but whatever. i'll stop with the stupid sayings now.

dammit.. i can't believe i lost.. and that crazy crack whore won, with fake promises and gimmicks.. that she stole from me! man.. now i know how cruz bustamante feels. wait.. i want a RECALL!! - i think it would be appropriate seeing as how this is a california poll :)
i feel like the weekend passed too fast. it's monday already and i can't wait for friday, well thursday is nice too.. i'm excited for thursday. :)
last wednesday was the freak storms in california. it was pretty awesome... yes yes, i know, we californians are wimps when it comes to weather and crap like that. but right after the fires, the weather freaks out. i guess it's weather karma from it being super sunny and 80-90 degrees all the way through october. wednesday where i was it hailed for a short bit at 3pm, and at 5pm when i got off work the skies looked little gray.. as i drove west i saw a little orange as the sun was setting near the beach and behind me there was lighting in the sky.. it was cool. i heard on the radio about the freaky weather in all different parts, raining and flooding in some parts and beautiful sunsets in the other. when i got home i watched the news with my dad (because the weather was the ONLY thing on tv) and saw that parts of la were flooded and since we're not equipped for that amount of rain in the first hour or so the 3 inches of rain managed to completely shut down la. it was interesting and we ended up getting a little bit of rain, lightning and thunder.. but nothing too bad in torrance :) although the lightning did strike my phone line and caused our line to die, which we didn't discover until thursday and didn't get fixed until wednesday. so i apologize if you tried to reach me and couldn't. (not that any does... ever.)
thursday i had my play and carrie, benji, keri and jerrod came.. yay!!! i do have friends. thanks for coming guys! they said they enjoyed it, so i'm glad, and keri brought me flowers!! yay!!! she loves me. even though i'm not really on stage, it's cool that they came to see the play, and i'm really glad that they liked it and had a good time :) afterwards benji and i went to the cat and fiddle afterwards which is like the post play hang out and just sat, chit chatted, benji attempted to hit on a girl he thought was hot and ate some yummy dinner.
friday i went to souplantation with my daddy.. he loves that place. but it was fun going out to dinner with him and just hanging out with him. for the last few weeks i felt so distant from him.. it sucked. like i felt like we never really talked and all he did was yell at me.. and just always seemed really angry, but i think things are better now. not that we ever really talk about anything real.. but it's just nice to know that i'm not going to get yelled at by him on a daily basis. he was always one of those people that never really got mad a lot, but when he did get mad he would get really really really mad.. like when he left for new york. we had this huge fight and it sucked. but he changed offices so he works in my sister's area, so he goes to her office sometimes to have lunch with her, and my sister showed him my unfinished trailer.. and she said it was really good and he said he liked it too. he didn't really get what it was about because he didn't know what the project was about, but i feel like he was impressed. enough to mention to me that he saw it. and its weird because that meant SO much to me. like my parents were never super interested in anything that did.. outside of the obligatory things that i made them go to like my band concerts and when i was in the musical, but like when i played sports my dad would sometimes come to games.. or like when i was doing circle k my parents would always complain about how i was doing too much "key club" stuff and what not. and they've never really seen/heard any of my projects that i've done. like, it's not a huge deal, and i feel kind of like a brat whining about it, but it mattered to me that people take interest in things that i'm interested in. SO ANYWAYS.. sorry for this long winded tangent (with no mention of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches BY THE WAY ;P...) i'm really happy that my sister showed it to him, and that he liked it and showed some amount of interest... it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
but i do feel like maybe one of the reasons why i'm a daddy's girl is because i'm kinda a tomboy in the sense that i liked sports and i liked to wrestle with my dad and stuff like that. i think that my dad (like all dads) probably was sad that he didn't get a son.. we were in sportmart the other day buying stuff for the greatest softball team in the world and he wanted to buy this wooden bat.. and
me: what are you going to do with a bat?
my daddy: yea.. i'm going to buy it and teach my kids how to play baseball.
me: what? huh? what kids are you going to teach.
my daddy: i'll adopt some kids and teach them how to play
it was cute in a depressing kind of way. like it's one of those things that you're totally grateful for things you have, but yet you wish you still had that one thing that's missing.
so yea.. anyways.. saturday sakura and i drove out to the wrong side of the tracks .. the boonies.. CHINO hills because nicole bribed us, and carrie, with free food and chocolate and whined about how she couldn't go anywhere because her car was sad. but it was a lot of fun, we played with her oh so cute puppy, ate yummy yummy food, made fun of each other, watched tv and sappy girly movies. we tried to watch skinemax and find the soft porn, but we only caught the end of "passion's peak" and all the good stuff already happened. i really wanted to know what happened with the stripper who was trying to rebuild her life so she renovated a hotel. umm.. yea.. i'm not making this stuff up people. it was fun, and the food was yummerific and the company was great. thanks to the girls - and carlene and sonny.. you guys rock :)
yesterday was the waffles first big game! whoo hoo!! too bad we lost. :( it's okay.. we let them win.. ahah yup. we let them win by sucking. just kidding. it was our first game and we didn't really know what it was going to be like. and we'll play them again and kick their asses cuz we know what our faults are and what we need to work on. it was also the first time we met as a whole team.. so we have to get that chemistry thing going too. but it'll be good.. i can feel it :) i just have to get this slow-pitch thing down (the arch needs to be 8-12 feet and land on a mat behind home base for it to be a strike.. hmm.) and we need to fill the holes in our outfield and beth needs to go to the batting cages to catch balls :) i also need to learn how to not giggle in the middle of the game. but i like to laugh at what a dumb ass i am. :P highlights of our first game include
*me running in to the large and in charge guy standing on first base and bouncing off him like he was a rubber wall and getting this huge scrape on my leg (there's something about me and getting knocked down by huge fat guys when i play for ryan skophammer)
*this girl running into beth (at home plate) because she didn't slide (thus her getting out) and so this girl fell down and beth felt bad and tried to help her up and she said "don't touch me" (i would have smacked her beth) and our whole team yelling "yea beth!!! great job!!"
*right before that happened i caught the ball, turned around and threw the ball to beth - but i lost my balance, so i immediately fell after that and rolled around in the dirt - missing watching beth's heroic moment. damn. i also felt like an ass and the guy from the other team asked me "what was that" and i just said "i have no idea" in the midst of my fits of giggles
*this girl hitting a grounder right to me, i caught it, but then proceeded to play popcorn with it, the ball jumped around and i fumbled (huh.. wrong sport? no.) and dropped the ball and let the girl on base. yup.. i'm good. giggles attacked me here too.
*us being up by a run in the second inning.. too bad that wasn't the end of the game.
and last but certainly not least..
*the BEST TEAM MOM/PHOTOGRAPHER/TREASURER IN THE WHOLE WORLD brought us cut up oranges for our after game snack. she not only sliced the oranges, but also sliced the fruit part from the peel so it would be less messy in eating them. WOW. sakura rocks my socks off.
after the game jill, sakura, beth and i went to rocky cola cafe for our post game celebratory (?? can you call it that if you lost??) dinner. we shared the wings and things #1 appetizer - which included chicken wings, zucchini sticks, buffalo wings and we subsituted the onion rings for garlic fries - and came with celery and carrots and ranch, honey mustard and bleu cheese (which we asked for another ranch) and then shared the chocolate skyscraper cake, with whip cream and two scoops of vanilla ice cream on the side. and we all drank ice water. (are you happy now holiday?)
i feel like the weekend passed too fast. it's monday already and i can't wait for friday, well thursday is nice too.. i'm excited for thursday. :)

thursday i had my play and carrie, benji, keri and jerrod came.. yay!!! i do have friends. thanks for coming guys! they said they enjoyed it, so i'm glad, and keri brought me flowers!! yay!!! she loves me. even though i'm not really on stage, it's cool that they came to see the play, and i'm really glad that they liked it and had a good time :) afterwards benji and i went to the cat and fiddle afterwards which is like the post play hang out and just sat, chit chatted, benji attempted to hit on a girl he thought was hot and ate some yummy dinner.
friday i went to souplantation with my daddy.. he loves that place. but it was fun going out to dinner with him and just hanging out with him. for the last few weeks i felt so distant from him.. it sucked. like i felt like we never really talked and all he did was yell at me.. and just always seemed really angry, but i think things are better now. not that we ever really talk about anything real.. but it's just nice to know that i'm not going to get yelled at by him on a daily basis. he was always one of those people that never really got mad a lot, but when he did get mad he would get really really really mad.. like when he left for new york. we had this huge fight and it sucked. but he changed offices so he works in my sister's area, so he goes to her office sometimes to have lunch with her, and my sister showed him my unfinished trailer.. and she said it was really good and he said he liked it too. he didn't really get what it was about because he didn't know what the project was about, but i feel like he was impressed. enough to mention to me that he saw it. and its weird because that meant SO much to me. like my parents were never super interested in anything that did.. outside of the obligatory things that i made them go to like my band concerts and when i was in the musical, but like when i played sports my dad would sometimes come to games.. or like when i was doing circle k my parents would always complain about how i was doing too much "key club" stuff and what not. and they've never really seen/heard any of my projects that i've done. like, it's not a huge deal, and i feel kind of like a brat whining about it, but it mattered to me that people take interest in things that i'm interested in. SO ANYWAYS.. sorry for this long winded tangent (with no mention of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches BY THE WAY ;P...) i'm really happy that my sister showed it to him, and that he liked it and showed some amount of interest... it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
but i do feel like maybe one of the reasons why i'm a daddy's girl is because i'm kinda a tomboy in the sense that i liked sports and i liked to wrestle with my dad and stuff like that. i think that my dad (like all dads) probably was sad that he didn't get a son.. we were in sportmart the other day buying stuff for the greatest softball team in the world and he wanted to buy this wooden bat.. and
me: what are you going to do with a bat?
my daddy: yea.. i'm going to buy it and teach my kids how to play baseball.
me: what? huh? what kids are you going to teach.
my daddy: i'll adopt some kids and teach them how to play
it was cute in a depressing kind of way. like it's one of those things that you're totally grateful for things you have, but yet you wish you still had that one thing that's missing.
so yea.. anyways.. saturday sakura and i drove out to the wrong side of the tracks .. the boonies.. CHINO hills because nicole bribed us, and carrie, with free food and chocolate and whined about how she couldn't go anywhere because her car was sad. but it was a lot of fun, we played with her oh so cute puppy, ate yummy yummy food, made fun of each other, watched tv and sappy girly movies. we tried to watch skinemax and find the soft porn, but we only caught the end of "passion's peak" and all the good stuff already happened. i really wanted to know what happened with the stripper who was trying to rebuild her life so she renovated a hotel. umm.. yea.. i'm not making this stuff up people. it was fun, and the food was yummerific and the company was great. thanks to the girls - and carlene and sonny.. you guys rock :)
yesterday was the waffles first big game! whoo hoo!! too bad we lost. :( it's okay.. we let them win.. ahah yup. we let them win by sucking. just kidding. it was our first game and we didn't really know what it was going to be like. and we'll play them again and kick their asses cuz we know what our faults are and what we need to work on. it was also the first time we met as a whole team.. so we have to get that chemistry thing going too. but it'll be good.. i can feel it :) i just have to get this slow-pitch thing down (the arch needs to be 8-12 feet and land on a mat behind home base for it to be a strike.. hmm.) and we need to fill the holes in our outfield and beth needs to go to the batting cages to catch balls :) i also need to learn how to not giggle in the middle of the game. but i like to laugh at what a dumb ass i am. :P highlights of our first game include
*me running in to the large and in charge guy standing on first base and bouncing off him like he was a rubber wall and getting this huge scrape on my leg (there's something about me and getting knocked down by huge fat guys when i play for ryan skophammer)
*this girl running into beth (at home plate) because she didn't slide (thus her getting out) and so this girl fell down and beth felt bad and tried to help her up and she said "don't touch me" (i would have smacked her beth) and our whole team yelling "yea beth!!! great job!!"
*right before that happened i caught the ball, turned around and threw the ball to beth - but i lost my balance, so i immediately fell after that and rolled around in the dirt - missing watching beth's heroic moment. damn. i also felt like an ass and the guy from the other team asked me "what was that" and i just said "i have no idea" in the midst of my fits of giggles
*this girl hitting a grounder right to me, i caught it, but then proceeded to play popcorn with it, the ball jumped around and i fumbled (huh.. wrong sport? no.) and dropped the ball and let the girl on base. yup.. i'm good. giggles attacked me here too.
*us being up by a run in the second inning.. too bad that wasn't the end of the game.
and last but certainly not least..
*the BEST TEAM MOM/PHOTOGRAPHER/TREASURER IN THE WHOLE WORLD brought us cut up oranges for our after game snack. she not only sliced the oranges, but also sliced the fruit part from the peel so it would be less messy in eating them. WOW. sakura rocks my socks off.
after the game jill, sakura, beth and i went to rocky cola cafe for our post game celebratory (?? can you call it that if you lost??) dinner. we shared the wings and things #1 appetizer - which included chicken wings, zucchini sticks, buffalo wings and we subsituted the onion rings for garlic fries - and came with celery and carrots and ranch, honey mustard and bleu cheese (which we asked for another ranch) and then shared the chocolate skyscraper cake, with whip cream and two scoops of vanilla ice cream on the side. and we all drank ice water. (are you happy now holiday?)

So I can't go down without a fight. :P
Pete's lastest poll in his ever lasting sweeps is to have one of his california groupies.. err.. friend's post on his site. apparently nicole is kicking all our asses in this vote. i tell you it's fixed dammit.. and there's too much propaganda for nicole withing 100ft of the polling place.. so this is my small effort to fight back.
Nicole is a politician.. PLUS she wears toe socks. Yes.. I know my hate has already been "overblown" on her site, but really.. you know they creep you out.. toe socks?! COME ON!! and she's already so cocky and confident.. i swear she already has her guest post written out and proofread. i'm currently tied with carrie.. and are you really going to let me get less votes than her?.. she's a self proclaimed rabbit! how can an animal be the most popular one? if you vote for her that's one step away from saying you love barney. plus, she can't even cook... what good could ever come out of that? TAKE THEM DOWN!
So I'm going to make fake promises I won't be able to do, or gimmicks to have you vote for me.. but you should.. just because :)
go and vote

happy veteran's day.
too bad i don't get work off.. sucky. but both of my parents did and so i went out to lunch with them at the pizza hut lunch buffet! yummy. it was SUPER crowded and i got there first so i put in our "order" and waited nicely for a table, these two other guys came and then my parents walked through the door. so this other guy was a jerk and was all harassing the waitress, telling her that she wasn't trying her hardest, that he was going to go clean off the table cuz she's so slow.. blah blah.. and then she went to clean off the table and he started to go sit down. at that point my mom was all like "hey hey hey" because she was all worried that i had to get back to work on time. and his friend who was a lot nicer was like.. "oh.. they were here first" but i'm sure he didn't hear because he had his head too far up his ass and was trying to argue and the waitress who looked like she wanted to murder someone already was all "please we're all grown-ups, we can work this out" but no.. there was no "working out" because i was there first.. plain and simple. so the guy was all like "if you think you were here first, then i'll let you go." what an asshole. i was like.. "no..i KNOW i WAS here first, i watched you walk in the door".. and as we were going to sit down at our rightfully ours table, he was like "your welcome" and i was just like.. "whatever dude.. i was here first, what am i supposed to thank you for giving me what was already mine?" what a jerkface. but anyways.. he sat down like at the table next to us like 2 minutes later. (great). he was all harassing the waitress, complaining about everything and how he wasn't going to leave a tip, and just being plain rude. and then afterwards he went up and complained some more about his experience was "horrible" he was just a very unhappy windbag. karma's totally going to get him. and besides... what ever happened to chivalry, or 'ladies first?' my mom is this little asian lady and this guy is being a huge jerk.. like what is wrong with you? whatever dude. i hate how people just think that pushing their weight around and yelling makes them look important and/or is going to automatically get them what you want. it just makes you look like an ass.
but i still ate plenty of pizza and got a slice of my chicken and mushroom.. mmm... and just working. fun fun stuff.
but while i am occupying myself at work i wanted to post about beloved o-town.. from mtv.com
"After much speculation, it's official — O-Town are O-Ver. According to a statement they sent to fan site Insideotown.com, the group will not continue on, but will remain "best friends." The decision was mutual, and each member has moved on to other projects: Jacob is working as a volunteer firefighter in San Diego, Dan is writing and producing, Trevor is studying acting, Ashley is recording a solo album and Erik-Michael is going solo and exploring acting. "
que lastima.. it's okay.. they were loved. take a moment of silence for them today.
(ps. for those of you who read nicole's blog.. don't be fooled.. i'm the one who told her this very important news.. i'm not just copying her blog cuz i have nothing important in my life. but we are both equally sad. hahah.. and don't worry nicole.. you can still go buy there cd's .. go now!)

so the weekend is already over. damn. i wish i could say that i get tomorrow off for veteran's day but no such luck. damn. this weekend was chill.. friday ann and i fought traffic to get to the jason mraz show at the wiltern. we met up with carrie, nicole and beth and donated our food and went inside. it's a pretty cool little venue.. very cute, not huge, but also not small. it was a good show. we stood in the back just because it was a bit too crowded and we're a bit too short. dang.. i should have worn my tall shoes. it was kind to stand behind the sound and light boards.. but also a bit distracting. and we also saw the set list (which beth obtained afterwards :P) so a few yays and nays about what he was playing before the show even started. although under "acoustic break" he didn't actually list 0% interest.. so i started jumping up and down and screaming like a school girl when he started to strumm the chords as nicole and beth looked at me like i was a weirdo. but it was interesting to see the show evolve.. it was really flashy and cool, but i did find myself staring at the lights and how they moved and not even listening to the show (oohh.. shiny).. especially from the back. nicole is so funny- as jason was coming on stage.. the theater was all dark and then these yellow lights started to wave around the theater and i think there was some "pump you up" music playing and nicole screams "i thought we were here to see jason mraz! not *nsync" so sad, yet kind of true. but during one of jason's last songs he was saying how he thought the lights were ridiculous.. haha.. at least he knows :P i wonder if it's hard for him to play and concentrate like that. i read some interview with blink 182 and they were saying how it's so hard to play with all the flashing, strobing lights. i bet it's the same for jason mraz.. well.. at least at first. but he had this giant backdrop that came in half way through the show and it was like the background of his cd cover.. and then after a song or two they shined lights on it to change it so it looked like the street at night.. there were little lamps, and a moon and lyrics from various songs were printed on it. it was very disneyland and really rad. soooo different.. but still cool :) i am still a teenybopper so i can enjoy these things, and still love it and have a good time, but it's definitely interesting to see the differences. but i'm glad that my friends had a good time. they are all sorry now that they thought that i was insane when i tried to get them to go see jason mraz with me last summer. the official retractions are now in their blogs. haha.. i'm just glad that they don't think i'm crazy anymore.. they have too fallen under the spell. :) rad.
after the show i said goodbye to philly and gave her some paraphernilia stuff i had.. i hope she loves it.. or else i'll regret that i didn't hock it on ebay and make some money i so desperately need. haha jk. and i also saw aran too.. which was exciting.. i screamed and we hugged.. our usual routine. i love him. (one more thing about bigger venues, i didn't get to see "everyone" too bad) afterwards i drove ann home after a late dinner at in n out. saturday i just cleaned, fought with my mom.. the same usual weekend drama. i did watch my tv that i recorded that week.. i finally had time to catch up.. one tree hill, friends, but i frikkin forgot to tape miss match. damn. sunday i cooked some really nasty mac n cheese.. if you ever cook it.. don't put pepper in it. i always see people do it and i thought it would be good. it's not. it's nasty.. don't do it. and then i went to go see love actually with manny and sakura. it was alright.. we got there late so we had to sit in the second row.. my eyes watered at some points from being too close up. it was interesting to have that many storylines in one movie.. and i do feel that not all them played out as well as they could have.. but it was good. i was expecting something else.. but it was okay. and hugh grant is such a cutie. i'll love him even if he likes hookers. afterwards sakura and i went to elephant bar and shared a really good appetizer.. it was yummy. mm.. i kind of almost want to go there right now and have it again for lunch :P
this week we're starting to do softball stuff. we have our first "practice" tomorrow.. yay! i love softball. but i do need to go find my glove.. i completely misplaced it (like everything else in my life). i'm so excited though. yay! i hope i don't suck too much. kudos to beth for making a blogger for us already.. i think she's already working on a tshirt too.. hahah.. i want cute baseball tees :P i feel like i should go do some exercise to get in shape.. cuz i definitely missed spring training. i huffed and puffed my way up 5 flights of stairs while everyone else was breathing normally. :P go me. go waffles!

so i finally get to blog. i've been wanting to for awhile.. but just haven't had the time or been too tired.. or wasn't in a big typing mood. but i look at my blog and it looks so sad and lonely.. so i'm sorry blog.. i love you.. i really do.
not much .. i've been a tad busy with nothing. fun huh? my grandma left :( which sucks because she was a lot of fun.. we got to hang out a lot and was even fun to just watch tv with. plus she liked to cook for me and do the dishes. she was rad. hopefully i'll get to see her soon. my sister also went to taiwan.. but she'll be back soon.. monday to be exact, with lots of presents in hand .. whoo hoo! i told her what to buy me.. hehe. but in the airport we also perused the duty free shop and i got a new watch :) i've lost/broken the last few i have, and just rely on my cell phone for time, but i also like a good watch, so of course i went looking. it's courtesy of my grandma.. she said she bought it as a birthday present for me. :) the only sucky thing is that since it's duty free i have to wait until my sister comes back from taiwan to get it. oh well. it's purtty and shiny .. i'm excited.
i also went to the virgin howie day instore (without driving in triangles... thank goodness) with erika and beth. we got there late.. but he was great.. :) and then through erika i got tickets to the concert the next day (which was actually supposed to be the day before, but got postponed because of the fires because his plane couldn't land) and dragged benji to the concert with me. he was the only who would go.. i would have been so sad if i couldn't find someone to go with. benji is the best. the concert was SO good and full band and solo work by howie was sweet. he also did this looping thing that was really really awesome where he makes all these different chords, sounds, beats and loops them all together on stage in front of you to make a whole song.. it's neat. apparently he's done it forever.. but this is the first time i've seen him live and it rocked. not to mention that his bassist looked like a relative of steve kim hehehe. not quite as hot, but definitely not ugly. he just needs to not smile with his mouth open though.. he had pirate teeth. haha. but i enjoyed it. matt nathanson was also lovely and funny. thanks again benji!
wednesday i finally called up the temp agency again (since i hadn't heard from them in forever) and asked them to call me again. it works out well because before i felt bad for leaving my grandma at home by herself, but now that she's gone it's good that i can work so my parents won't nag me about me being a useless lump of nothing eating their food and using their money. but so the temp agency called me about an "indefinite" job which was pretty close to my house (16 minutes in traffic) so it's nice. the bad part is that it's 8am-5pm.. which is normal like most jobs, and not too heinous, but when i've been waking up at 1pm.. 8am is kicking me in arse. i'm super tired all day and what not.. but it's chill and not stressful. a bit boring.. i punch numbers ALL day.. but it's easy and leaves me with plenty of time to surf the net, email and chat. but i DO get all my work done and then some.. so i figure it's alright. that's what everyone else there does too. but i'm also getting paid, which is definitely nice.. my funds were running pretty low... so it's good to have income.. now i can be even more wasteful and frivolous. but i'm also crazy and applied at the gap for part time (nights and weekends) which means if i got it then i'd be going straight from one job to another. i don't know why.. i just had this overwhelming desire to work there still. it's not like i NEED the money (although it is nice to have extra) and not like i NEED the clothes either.. (my closet constantly looks like it's thrown up all over my room) .. i don't know.. i just really wanted to, and thought it would be fun. but i guess we'll see. what if they don't hire me? that would be pretty sad. but it would follow my current hiring trend. how sad would it be if i got rejected from the gap. damn.
halloween came and went, i passed out candy to some really cute kids. i saw these kids that were a set a crayons!! it was so cute. and then i really wanted to see a set of kids dressed up as harry, ron and hermione. how AWESOME would that be... but it didn't happen.. kids are dumb.. haha. i was supposed to hang out with carrie but couldn't because i got in a fight with my mom (yes again) so i just stayed home and wallowed. boo... i know.
the play is going well. just two weeks left. opening night was good good.. and then it just kinda has been all over the place since then. since it only shows once a week and we don't do anything in between.. it's like those classes that you only had once a week were you forget everything from the week before. i've fudged up a little with lights and sounds.. nothing TOO noticeable.. but it kind of sucks. there are flaws.. but most everyone seems to not notice and enjoy it. i just know because that's my job right? it sucked though because last week we had to start and hour later because on of the actor's cars broke down. this week was good.. it just sucks with traffic and parking. damn hollywood. but some people have mentioned that they're going to come to the next two shows.. so i'm excited.. i'll have friends. haha. i hope i don't mess up too badly from the pressure.
i also worked on editing my trailer for my sister's shorts. i went late late at nights and my mom freaked.. but it's all good. i didn't quite finish, but i will soon.. although they already showed them.. and people responded well. i still think it a p.o.s. but that's what i always think. but it's been fun piecing this stuff together and every once in awhile i like getting compliments that i pretend not to care about and say i'm unworthy of ;) but deep down.. it makes me all warm and tingly. i'm smiling on the inside.
ryan and i finally got the details of the softball worked out.. so i'm pretty excited. although i'm writing a fat check that i don't have money for.. i hope they don't cash it right away. :P but hopefully we won't suck to bad and maybe even kick ass. go waffles!
and i'm going to see jason mraz tonight. sexy.
not much .. i've been a tad busy with nothing. fun huh? my grandma left :( which sucks because she was a lot of fun.. we got to hang out a lot and was even fun to just watch tv with. plus she liked to cook for me and do the dishes. she was rad. hopefully i'll get to see her soon. my sister also went to taiwan.. but she'll be back soon.. monday to be exact, with lots of presents in hand .. whoo hoo! i told her what to buy me.. hehe. but in the airport we also perused the duty free shop and i got a new watch :) i've lost/broken the last few i have, and just rely on my cell phone for time, but i also like a good watch, so of course i went looking. it's courtesy of my grandma.. she said she bought it as a birthday present for me. :) the only sucky thing is that since it's duty free i have to wait until my sister comes back from taiwan to get it. oh well. it's purtty and shiny .. i'm excited.

wednesday i finally called up the temp agency again (since i hadn't heard from them in forever) and asked them to call me again. it works out well because before i felt bad for leaving my grandma at home by herself, but now that she's gone it's good that i can work so my parents won't nag me about me being a useless lump of nothing eating their food and using their money. but so the temp agency called me about an "indefinite" job which was pretty close to my house (16 minutes in traffic) so it's nice. the bad part is that it's 8am-5pm.. which is normal like most jobs, and not too heinous, but when i've been waking up at 1pm.. 8am is kicking me in arse. i'm super tired all day and what not.. but it's chill and not stressful. a bit boring.. i punch numbers ALL day.. but it's easy and leaves me with plenty of time to surf the net, email and chat. but i DO get all my work done and then some.. so i figure it's alright. that's what everyone else there does too. but i'm also getting paid, which is definitely nice.. my funds were running pretty low... so it's good to have income.. now i can be even more wasteful and frivolous. but i'm also crazy and applied at the gap for part time (nights and weekends) which means if i got it then i'd be going straight from one job to another. i don't know why.. i just had this overwhelming desire to work there still. it's not like i NEED the money (although it is nice to have extra) and not like i NEED the clothes either.. (my closet constantly looks like it's thrown up all over my room) .. i don't know.. i just really wanted to, and thought it would be fun. but i guess we'll see. what if they don't hire me? that would be pretty sad. but it would follow my current hiring trend. how sad would it be if i got rejected from the gap. damn.
halloween came and went, i passed out candy to some really cute kids. i saw these kids that were a set a crayons!! it was so cute. and then i really wanted to see a set of kids dressed up as harry, ron and hermione. how AWESOME would that be... but it didn't happen.. kids are dumb.. haha. i was supposed to hang out with carrie but couldn't because i got in a fight with my mom (yes again) so i just stayed home and wallowed. boo... i know.
the play is going well. just two weeks left. opening night was good good.. and then it just kinda has been all over the place since then. since it only shows once a week and we don't do anything in between.. it's like those classes that you only had once a week were you forget everything from the week before. i've fudged up a little with lights and sounds.. nothing TOO noticeable.. but it kind of sucks. there are flaws.. but most everyone seems to not notice and enjoy it. i just know because that's my job right? it sucked though because last week we had to start and hour later because on of the actor's cars broke down. this week was good.. it just sucks with traffic and parking. damn hollywood. but some people have mentioned that they're going to come to the next two shows.. so i'm excited.. i'll have friends. haha. i hope i don't mess up too badly from the pressure.
i also worked on editing my trailer for my sister's shorts. i went late late at nights and my mom freaked.. but it's all good. i didn't quite finish, but i will soon.. although they already showed them.. and people responded well. i still think it a p.o.s. but that's what i always think. but it's been fun piecing this stuff together and every once in awhile i like getting compliments that i pretend not to care about and say i'm unworthy of ;) but deep down.. it makes me all warm and tingly. i'm smiling on the inside.
ryan and i finally got the details of the softball worked out.. so i'm pretty excited. although i'm writing a fat check that i don't have money for.. i hope they don't cash it right away. :P but hopefully we won't suck to bad and maybe even kick ass. go waffles!
and i'm going to see jason mraz tonight. sexy.
