wrapup shiet

Hmm... once again, baseball has taken hold of my life. Not just the Cubs... JAVY.

Oh hell yes you're seein right. .577 thus far. That's my baby =D Um, so Anne's worried about my well-being due to this baseball obsession, so I guess I am going extreme. I remember how it was earlier this school year... interesting since there are two seasons per school year, and this seems like such a "new beginning" type thing. It gives me some new energy.

Track is going pretty well.. not that I'm GOOD at it, but I feel good doing it. Okay, not physically, but MENTALLY... and afterwards it always feels rewarding. Even though we did sprint workouts all last week... sprinted at least 2 miles a day cept Friday (running in the forest preserve aka TRACK BOYS IN THE FOREST! We wish!). Hawkette tryouts are Mon-Thu this week and I'm pretty much definitely not going to do that again next year. I've got really mixed up feelings about this, but I guess I'm pretty confident in my decision. =T Ask me for details, I guess?

It was ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS this weekend. Friday uptown, having our hispanic heritage discussions, seeing Andrew get arrested for dealing, and just about everyone who lives in Action Ridge. Saturday OLD ORCHARD for the first time since god knows when. Got all this free shit from Nordstrom... candy, perfume, purses, candy, pop, candy... MAn... just a GREAT day =D. I tried on a really perty skirt =( but uh my legs looked "bad" (replacement of word for Elyse's sake) though according to Mary they are more like "coveted". Wtf. Who covets my legs?? o_O Today after chinese school I had a picnic with my family (aka daddy and jieh jieh). Which was FUN. Wheeeeeeeeee... Sorry, what a random post. BUT YOU LOVE IT.

PS: minimal AIMage this week... don't feel offended if I leave a lot.

"You can NEVER go wrong with Lee st!"

Red bean bing? =P "Uh, where IS coffeehaus?"

The REAL reason Franklin wouldn't hang out with us... but I forgave him, cuz he's mah roomie =)

"Let's play a game.. it's called.. FOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" [and then jason stabbed andrew..]

WHEW!!! Great one, guys. I basically did everything that I've wanted to do for the longest time. That would be:

+ BAKE!! [pictures to come]
+ hang out with Maria and Tamara and discuss our non-evil plans
+ get bubble tea
+ chill with tafers [pix to come]
+ watch a cubs game! (i <3 gonzo, patterson, wood, grudz, walker, et al)
+ amble around my town on a nice day
+ sleep for more than 10 hrs (this has not happened since winter break)
+ HAMMOCK!!!!

Got to chill with lots of people I usually don't see, talk to people I usually don't talk to, have all sorts of awesome conversations and all that great stuff... you guys are awesome =D Thanks for making me actually feel happy for the first time in a long while... I'll update this when I have time later =T I just had to let everyone know that I'm happy for once ~_^

people who piss me off: volume CXXVIII

(+) flirts. guys who feel the need to flirt with one girl plus 20 of her friends. No, you do not look like a pimp when you do that. No, it does not make you cool. No, you will not gain any more respect from the girl by doing so. Yes, you should just shut up.
(+) fake people. the ones that feel the need to be known by everybody. Just because you know somebody doesn't mean they like you/wish to interact with you. Nobody thinks you're any cooler because of our great all-knowingness, and if they do, then they're pansies anyway so why bother gaining their respect?
(+) needy bastards. those who could not wipe their own ass for themselves nor do anything alone. YOU are the only person you will always have, so satisfy your own damn needs. If you can't spend time alone with yourself, then who the hell are you?
(+) validation whores. people who cannot do anything without someone's approval. Who's approval are you looking for anyway? Someone who you can blame if your initial action was incorrect? Take some goddamn responsibility for yourself and have the guts to do it. If you're wrong, then learn to deal with it (god knows you will need this skill often).
(+) drama queens. dearlordwillyoupleasejustbequiet-type-people. To be honest, nobody cares. So just bandage your fucking finger to a popsicle stick and play your goddamn soccer game. Making a big deal out of it won't do shit for you.
(+) misery whores. those who cannot stop talking about their misfortune. That's great and all kid, and I feel bad for you, but what do you want me to say?? I can say sorry all I want, but you'll just say "no, it'd not your fault." I'll be here to listen to you, but you look at me as if you expect me to say something. WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT ME TO SAY?? Are you seriously looking for admiration from me, for you enduring through so much stress? Those who deserve my goddamn admiration do not need to SEEK it. Get your act together, think happier, and pull it through.
(+) mary kate and ashley olsen. Just... ew.

THE LONGEST WEEK EVER!!

And I have an actual reason this time! My aunt is driving me NUTS! Someone SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVE MEEEEEEEE I'm going INSANE here!!! And my cousins invaded my house yesterday. Argh! I seriously can't take this any longer. You have NO idea of what I'm dealing with here... it's like a level of ignorance that not even the most moronic EVEN AT MY SCHOOL could/would dare to fathom. My daddy's not comin home till Friday ::cries:: My stress level is escalating, damnit... as proved in the past, that is NOT a good thing. In fact, it's detrimental to my memory storage. Damn straight. If I failed the 12 chapter cumulative geometry test on Friday, I blame the aunt.

I think I'll do a weekly update from now on, unless I really feel like saying something in the middle of the week. Because really, I am just totally lacking inspiration. And you, my faithful blog reader, can suggest whatever you very well please. Not that I'll comply, but you can always try! The best part is that... I only have 3 days of school this week =D. FuAhaHAha... I've already got reserves for my extended weekend. Wednesday nite= track meet! >=( sooo will probably miss Ari's pool bash.. DAMNIT! sorry baby... Thursday= cook/bakefest with Maria and Tamara uh with nooooo hidden evil plan whatsoever... Friday= TAF peoples day, though we still need to plan (cuz the lord knows THAT takes forever)... nothin for Saturday yet? EhHh we'll come up with something =D. Uh, no more ice skating though. I'm done with that, thanks =P.

**IN DESPERATE NEED OF NEW GOOD SONGS... you know what I like ~_^... suggestions?**
