i'm in such a weird mood lol

(bleh)

i know i'm screwed when.. i start taking online quizzes!!!! [07 Dec 2005|11:34pm]


Your Heart Is Blue



Love is a doing word for you. You know it's love when you treat each other well.

You are a giving lover, but you don't give too much. You expect something in return.



Your flirting style: Friendly



Your lucky first date: Lunch at an outdoor cafe



Your dream lover: Is both generous and selfish



What you bring to relationships: Loyalty






You Are a Mai Tai



You aren't a big drinker, but you'll drink if the atmosphere is festive.

And when you're drunk, watch out! You're easily carried away.





You Are a Schoolgirl!



You're not quite as wild as a "kogyaru", but with your short plaid skirt

and silly white socks, you're still a sexual fetish object.

You can usually be seen hanging out in the girly section of the video game places,

collecting photobooth stickers of you and your friends. You may not be as innocent as you look.

Did those vending machine panties once belong to you?



eww gross lol



You Are a Good Student of Men



You're pretty good at knowing what men are thinking

But you're not dead on 100% of the time

Let your guy off the hook sometimes... because you may be reading him all wrong!


haha


He is a Man



You have yourself a perfect gentleman and a total keeper

Your guy almost always acts appropriately

He's probably even very upstanding when you're not around

There's no boy left in your boyfriend - he's all man!





Men See You As Understated



You are an intreguing mix of girl and woman.

You're feminine, quiet, and a total mystery to most men.

Yet they often feel the urge to protect you, even if they don't know you.

You *are* a flirt, but you usually only flirt with those you know well





You are a Great Girlfriend



When it comes to your guy, you're very thoughtful

But you also haven't stopped thinking of yourself

You're the perfect blend of independent and caring

You're a total catch - make sure your guy knows it too!




Your Scent is Pumpkin Pie



Warm, comforting, and a bit old fashioned

You've got what men want - believe it or not!




You are Milk Chocolate



A total dreamer, you spend most of your time with your head in the clouds.

You often think of the future, and you are always working toward your ideal life.

Also nostelgic, you rarely forget a meaningful moment... even those from long ago.





oh geez, ok i will stop now. these are so addicting.. and the questions they ask are so off-the-wall i have no idea how i get some of these results. ok, must not dwell on these useless quizzes.

(bleh)

the 3 variable funny test!! [06 Dec 2005|02:30am]
the Ham
(38% dark, 50% spontaneous, 36% vulgar)
your humor style:
CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | LIGHT




Your style's goofy, innocent and feel-good. Perfect for parties and for
the dads who chaperone them. You can actually get away with corny
jokes, and I bet your sense of humor is a guilty pleasure for your
friends. People of your type are often the most approachable and
popular people in their circle. Your simple & silly
good-naturedness is immediately recognizable, and it sets you apart in
this sarcastic world.

[ mood | drained ]

i went to the UV to get my nails taken off. After talking to multiple people, it seemed like the best option. well, after this morning i found out it wasn't...

i got there and i was expecting my nails to get soaked in stuff for a while, since i heard it from others and also from online websites. i sat down then the lady just started chipping/pulling them off!!!!! it was torture.... =*( during the whole process i felt my palms get sweaty and then my arms kinda broke out in sweat... i was also wincing, which got one of the other ladies to ask me how i was doing x___x i said i was fine, but it was obvious i really wasn't lol the lady who was taking off the acrylics even turned on a little fan next to me cuz i was really getting uncomfortable

afterwards, they asked if i wanted a manicure.. i considered it for a few seconds but i decided to leave cuz i just wanted to get as far away as possible x___x

right after i dropped by rizza's work to give something she forgot from the apt. apparently i even LOOKED traumatized cuz apparently my eyes were really watery... =(

in conclusion: I WILL NEVER EVER GET FAKE NAILS AGAIN

now i must go wheelthrow.. *sigh* my nails still hurt... =(

(bleh)

long nails = cumbersome [10 Nov 2005|11:56pm]
[ mood | calm ]

this morning i experienced my first real manicure and pedicure. i was really confused when i first came in cuz apparently i accidentally told the appointment lady that i wanted a full set (whatever that meant). so yeah.. i was awkward (as usual). i think the nail ladies got a kick out of me cuz i looked like such an ameteur. i'm pretty sure i looked terrified... i mean, the lady doing my hands had this drill thing and was CUTTING at my cuticles.. gahh.. so yeah, after one hour i came out slightly unscathed (two of my left fingers were bleeding a little =( )

after that, i was VERY aware of my newly extended nails. i have NEVER EVER grown my nails out (due to piano and years of karate). so geez, this was completely new. i felt so HINDERED the whole day lol. like, i tried dialing a number on my cell but i was having troubles with that. also, trying to get a pen out of my bag was quite a challenge. x_x and when i got to work, omg... typing was so tricky!!! right now i kinda know how to angle my fingers in a way to get more finger than nail on the keyboard. omg by the time i got to my last class of the day, i wanted to tear them off...lol oh, since they aren't cheap i was thinking of keeping them as long as possible, but alas (hehe) i have wheelthrowing projects to make by monday night!! so goodbye long nails on sunday (goodbye 20 dollars x_x)

*sigh* this is all for my cousin!!! i have to remember that. her wedding is this saturday and i have no idea how to be a bridesmaid. pllleaaase let me not fall on my face.. freakin' heels lol

looks like i have to overwork my girly self this weekend... great x_x once again, my main concern is falling on my face during the ceremony lol

geez, ok these nails!!!! arggghhhhh.... must stop typing and start packing for san diego tomorrow!

oh wait one more thing... i <3 peppermint mochas!!!!!!! =D

[ mood | relaxed ]

i went to santa monica yesterday with rizza, kristine, and anna and got hair cuts at the vidal sasoon academy. yay for student discounts! lol my hair is a bit shorter (still long) and i have some layering in the front. the shortest is a little more than chin-length. i like it cuz it's really simple. =)

i also got a nice cordoroy blazer at forever 21 cuz i was reallly cold last night. i also got this really nice, semi-dressy shirt at express on sale! so that's what i splurged on last night. good stuff.

for now, i'm waiting for my parents to pick me up. they're, of course, at Chinatown basking in the cheap stuff there lol when we get to san diego, we'll go straight to my cousin's wedding shower... wow, i can't believe she's getting married next month already! ..this will also be my first time being a bridesmaid (oh i sooo hope i din't trip and fall on my face during the ceremony lol)

san diego weekend [26 Sep 2005|06:51pm]
I had a good weekend. I had a chance to: go to my dress fitting (it's coming along well!), see the new tacoma my parents bought just a week or two ago (sooo big!), play halo 2 with my siblings (it was pretty much aj just killing me and rona the whole time... oh and i still need to play sonic the hedgehog!), eat at islands (at the bar with a good view of the USC game!) and watch corpse bride with andrew (yay!), go to church w the family on sunday, eat pho with the family, see my grandma (and also interview her for my upcoming paper!), shop with rona (got a nice shirt for my senior pic appt next week and also got nice shoes at the base), get fed by rizza's mom (of course), see the pomona campus after rizza and i dropped off ej and edric.

now what i didn't have a chance to do was any homework and studying... so now i will be extremely busy this whole week. as long as i remember this weekend was worth all this i hope i don't become too insane =b

!!!!!!!!! [06 Jul 2005|03:25pm]
i really really really really really want to finish The Order of the Phoenix!!! I really really really do. i really need to get a copy of it.... x_x

no.. what i really need is sleep.

here is a summary of what's happened the past few days. thinking back, no wonder i'm so very tired.

Thursday: woke up at 5am to bring mom to work, as usual went to class, after i had lunch with andrew, then bought lunch and dropped it off for aj, then got carne asada fries for anna, drove up to LA, had dinner with everyone there at Swingers, had a great time at BYOG Part 2 (i didn't go to part one, oh well), finally got to sleep at almost 5am (yeah... 24 hrs of no sleep)

Friday: woke up at 8:30 to have breakfast with everyone, went to The Pantry and ate to my hearts content, went back to the apt and packed up to go, left the apt at 1:15, i arrived in San Diego at 5 (gahhhh... 4 hours stuk in traffic by myself made me go slightly insane), had dinner with andrew, drove to coffee bean in mission valley to meet up with carolyn, tricia, daniel, and rizza, we intended to watch war of the worlds but that didn't happen cuz we chatted instead, we left at i think 11:30, went to peter's apt where all the guys were and andrew taught me how to play some poker, i came home around 1:15

Saturday: i did some errands, the siblings and i drove to the Del Mar fair at 4:30. we got to see crazy monster trucks in one of the arenas, saw piglets getting fed by their extremely fat mother, we saw other stuff too, anna, marisa, and mar met us at the fair from LA and we went in search of food, i finally got to try the australian battered potatoes i keep hearing about among other deliciously unhealthy food there, i saw an old classmate working at a taffy stand, we all met up with rizza, ej, rikki, and edric, our now huge group walked around and did the fair things, i left with anna, marisa and mar for downtown to meet with jason who was down in SD with family, we got there and hung out at the chocolate shop there, way later that night, we drove to my house and crashed for the night

sunday: i woke up before the other girls and tried making pancakes, they tasted like crap so i had to cook up plan b with help from rona (filipino-style fried rice), friends woke up and ate while i showered (i heard they liked my cooking. yay!), i drove the 4runner and we picked up andrew on our way to PB, got to pb and dropped off the girls to shop while andrew and i tried finding parking, we shopped and i foudn clothes for that night, after a few hours we left for andrew's friend's house, wil had a bbq burger party going on and we were fed delicious meat lol, i left with the girls for home, we got ready for the house of blues in downtown, we left and luckily found parking across the street, we met my cousin and her friends, we danced in there (lots and lots of filipinos, i'm guessing cuz that might be because a filipino was dj-ing), we left at midnight and planned on going to the party that was happening at peter's but found out andrew left already, we got carne asada fries, we then went to rizza's house instead and had a nice time hanging out with her and playing with tyler, we left at 2 and again we crashed at my place for the night

monday:
________________
hold on, need to finish later cuz my dad needs the computer monitor.. apparently to fix it?! i dunno, it seems fixed to me... lol
________________
ok now it's July 8, 2005 / 2:12pm and i will finish this entry:

so where was I....

Monday: ok so this was the 4th of july. the girls woke up and i made them a quick breakfast before they left. the left and then i just stayed home until relatives arrived. they arrived and i got to play with the cousins. =) andrew arrived and he got to meet more of my family (scary!). it was fine i guess but i think he was still recovering from last night x_x umm... oh yeah, later my mom busted out some mixes and a bottle of tequila!! wow. i never saw this coming... so my family never really served alcohol (other than the occassional beer for the dads) until this day. my mom go this idea from one of her friends at another party and thought it was cool. the thing is, we had no idea how to make these drinks (*cough* well i have an idea...). so guess who got to blend icy margaritas??? andrew! LoL so funny x_x he also helped make virgin pina coladas and strawberry daiquiris for the younger kids. lol even thinking about it now... geez, who would've guessed haha umm so the party was a success. andrew had to go home, but not before my parents and a couple relatives said he should do this for every party haha. so anyway, my parents left all of us to go to a mass downtown. the rest of us drove to the target shopping center and parked there to watch the fireworks. woo! we blasted 96.5 radio during the show and it was cool EXCEPT for about 5 minutes of the program which had the crappiest medley of music ever... they weren't even patriotic or anything. it kinda sounded like someone changing the radio station every few seconds, trying to hear every kind of song ever. that part was annoying.. annoying enough that i was contemplating turning off the radio. good thing it got better in the end lol so yeah.. that was 4th of july

Tuesday: i was a zombie all throughout the day. i had an impromptu speech that day and i survived somehow and i got a 90% on a quiz that i never really got to study foor so that was good. at volunteering i was really tired. the weekend really wore me down. my mom wasn't very helpful about it either lol she just said... all that fun makes you senile. x_x thanks mom for the caring words haha

i don't feel like typing anymore cuz i just wanted to show why i've been so tired lately. i don't know how people can go out all the time. lol it's fun every so often, but geez- this weekend was packed!!

k, time to do something. i think i have to bring my brother to the barber shop. muahahahaha ohh and i get to go out on a date tonight (cheesecake factory and war of the worlds). yay! =)

(bleh)

[10 Jun 2005|12:15pm]
umm dude, i should update this every day so i can remember everything i want to write down x_x

ok, i know i wanted to write a bunch earlier about stuff i can't figure out right now but i'll pretend i'm not bothered by this. i'll just talk about todays topics.

so, i get to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith tonight with andrew and his friends. =) i hope that we can get tickets and good seats considering it opens today. since we're going to be at the mall, i might as well get a new bathing suit cuz according to my sister "they look like something a grandma would wear." what?!?! THANKS RONA. what if i WANT to look like a grandma, huh huh?! what now! -_-'

it would also be nice to buy it tonight because tomorrow my family and i are taking a road trip to..... las vegas!!! wooo! not. i dunno what we're going to do there for 2 days and one night lol well i CAN gamble and drink now but PSHH like i'm going to do that in front of my parents (not that i enjoy doing those things anyway haha -_-). i wil always remember our spring break trip where i got kicked out of multiple casino areas cuz i was the only one of my friends under 21.. wait, no there was one guy who had a fake ID. haha well i DID look the youngest and most guilty looking i guess. grrr x__x lol

hmmmmmmm so what else did i want to stick in here... oh yeah, i tried calling my friend MICHELLE yesterday a billllllion times to wish her a happy birthday but i NEVER got to her x_x so happy birthday michelle!!

oh, i will also start volunteering at the hospital on Monday. i'm so excited =) when i went to orientation two days ago and walked around on the tour i got more and more excited. i really relaly really love working there =) and seeing familiar faces made me smile even more. ohh and i already signed up to help at a nurses station but i think for my next assignment, i'd love to work in the ER. that'll probably happen after i graduate, but yeah, did i mention i love working at the hospital?? i'm kinda sad though cuz with my summer school and this volunteering position, i am at a disadvantage for finding a job this summer. bleh. *sigh* i'll just have to see this as an opportunity to study more... and the volunteering can keep me happy. =)

i wannna be a nurse!!! lol ok enough about that.

mmm i had lunch today and i had leftovers last night. i was the one who actually fried the fish and made the tomato dish. i didnt' get to try it last night but i'm glad it turned out decent =)geez i need to take a shower now lol

(bleh)
