anyway...i'll delete all those stupid posts later. or whatever, i'll just leave them. i don't care all that much. anyway, what i was going to say before was that seeing all these people walking around campus with surf boards makes me want to learn how to surf. i remember when i was first going to ucsd, people would always ask me, so are you gonna learn how to surf?? and i'd always say, hell no. not that i dislike surfing. it always just kinda intimidated me, i guess. especially since i'm not a very strong swimmer. but every time i see someone pass by with a surf board (which is pretty often around here), especially a girl, i get the urge to try it out. and they do offer surfing classes here. hmm...maybe spring quarter? ;)

ARGH! WHY CAN'T I GET INTO BLOGGER.COM??? stupid internet. someone broke it.

ahhh, shit, wasn't supposed to post that last post.

whoops. that last post was a test. i'm blogging from aim right now. ;) i want to erase that last blog, but i can't cuz for some reason i can't get into my blog from blogger.com. so i'll just blog from here. i must say, this is a lot more convenient though.

ahh...what a beautiful, wonderful day. =D so i got off class at noon and as you can see from the little ditty below, i was very happy about it. :) so i ate lunch and just waited for mel to get out of class. she got out at 1 pm and we left for fashion valley around 130-140. the bus to fashion valley took about 45 minutes so we got there a little after two or something. we headed straight to old navy first cuz there was this sweater and track jacket that mel really really wanted that she saw online. turns out they had they had the sweater but not the track jacket and, actually, the sweater didn't look as great in person as it did in the photo online.

so we left and just started walking around. went to charlotte russe next and spent like $60. i was so stupid. while i was waiting in line to pay, i specifically told melissa, "i'm not going to use my credit card. i have to watch what i charge [since my balance is only $83]." and when it was my turn to pay, i didn't even think about what i was doing, i immediately pulled out my credit card without a second thought. i didn't even realize what i did till i was buying a smoothie at the food court. i opened my wallet to pull out some cash and then it dawned on me that i didn't pay for the charlotte russe stuff with cash. pulling out my credit card was like a reflex. see, i think THAT is when you know you need to spend some time apart from your credit card. maaaan. dammit. i really didn't want to pay for that stuff with the credit card just cuz now it's seriously almost maxed out. i can't believe i did that. argh. *bashes head onto keyboard* aoiuwe fLKUAOEIwotija;eoirjw3oi47021ajweorj;45iurIUawoI

OW.

well anyway, aside from the guilty feeling, i got some great stuff!! i'm so happy with my purchases. ;) i bought a long, gray sweater/coat type thing with the sleeves and bottom of the sweater fringed at charlotte russe. i also bought a red 3/4th sleeve shirt and a purple/gray sleeveless top. so then afterwards, me and mel went to the food court because she was seriously starting to go all spacey on me. she was walking around like completely dazed. it was because she hadn't eaten much and it was like around 3 or 4 or something. so we headed to the food court where i had my stupid realization and where mel filled her belly with some food. i don't know how this topic came up, but while we were sitting there, i think i said something like, "hey, we could watch a movie tonight [since there's a theater at fashion valley]." and i think melissa immediately said, "serendipity!" and we just looked at each other and i was like, "do you want to?" and she looked at me and said, "do YOU want to?" and then i said, "well, do YOU want to?" and then she said...well, you get the idea. we just sat there like, "i'll go if you wanna go"; back and forth like that for like several minutes. finally, i said, "okay, let's just go look at the times." so we did. and it turned out there was a show at 530 and it was only like 420 or something like that. so we bought tickets and then walked around a little bit more.

around 510, we headed back to the theater and sat down. i must say, serendipity is SUCH A CUTE MOVIE. there were so many "awww!!" moments, i loved it!!! i gotta admit though, it's a total chick flick. i'm thinking of all my guy friends right now, and i can't think of one that would like it. come to think of it, i think i saw a total of like, one guy in the theater. but whatever. john cusack is SUCH A CUTE MAN. i want him. someone get me him. i love john cusack. he was his lovely, adorable, funny self in this movie. mmm...john cuuuusaaaaack...

anyway, after serendipity, mel and i continued shopping. we hit forever 21 where i got another long sweater thing. this one's like super long. it almost goes to my ankles. and it's multi-colored. but like, with dark colors. it's very fall-ish. i love it. :) so i spent like about $100 today - clothes and movie. ergh...i know, it's not really that much, but for me, it is. :-/ but well...i got such good clothes!! in fact, i think i'm gonna try them on again and tear all the tags off. =D

all in all, fantastic day. weather was warm and sunny and it was even somewhat warm when it got all dark. i was wearing my black halter top and i wasn't cold at all. super day. good weather, good movie, good shopping. ahhh...i'm satisfied. ;)

it's FRIIIIIIIIIIIIIDAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!!!!! and i'm done done done done DONE with class!!! ahahahahaha!! ahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... ahhh....hahahahahahahaha. hah. HAH.

hey, forgot to mention that i got my last of the mohicans poster today! :) i was very happy. the lady that sold it to me was very very nice. i had originally bidded on another last of the mohicans poster she was auctioning off on ebay but someone outbid me and i lost it. i didn't really care too much at the time to put in a higher bid; i just told myself that i'd bid on another one later. but after the auction ended, the lady emailed me and told me that she had found an extra copy of the poster and that she was willing to sell it to me for the original auction price. i was really surprised. i mean, she could've easily put up that extra copy for bid and would probably have gotten more for it instead of selling it to me for the original price. but she didn't. i'm surprised that she even looked up the bid history and like, kinda sought me out. that was incredibly nice of her. i wish i could leave her some positive feedback, but since this wasn't an official ebay transaction, i can't. :-/

nice people are so cool. i know this is going to sound so corny, but even small acts of niceness like opening a door for someone can really brighten a person's day. well, i know it does for me anyway. nice people really inspire me to be a nicer person myself. so go out there and be nice to someone near you today!

well, enough with the corn (or as dylan says, maize). must finish italian homework and then put up last of the mohicans poster. :)

so...it turns out there's a very simple explanation as to why i couldn't buy a plane ticket online with my credit card - it's almost maxed out. at first, i thought that there was something wrong with the credit card. like the bank cut me off or like someone charged something onto my account without me knowing. so the next day, i called my parents and told them that there was something wrong with my credit card. about an hour and a half ago, my dad called and told me that he called the bank and they told him that my balance is now $83, which, i admit, isn't *that* little, but it's a little scary considering that my credit limit is $500 which means that i spent over $400 in less than a month.

ergh... at first, i told my dad that there must be some mistake...that either the bank made a mistake or someone charged something onto my account without me knowing. because i looked at my receipts for my textbooks and i only spent about $170 total on textbooks. but then, after he hung up, i realized that i had also used my credit card to buy groceries and such and i realized that it made sense, unfortunately. :-/ so, i called dad back and told him that i forgot about the groceries and that he didn't have to call the bank tomorrow. i totally expected him to like, yell at me or something, but he didn't, bless his heart. i love my dad. but i still feel really guilty about it, even though my roommates paid me back for the groceries. maybe it's cuz i'm still planning on going major clothes shopping tomorrow with melissa. even after i found out that my credit card wasn't working (or so i thought), i *still* planned on going shopping with melissa. i can't help it. :( i neeed new cloooothes...

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! i really need to marry rich or something. otherwise, i'm gonna be bankrupt and still living with my parents at 28 years old.

well, okay, so maybe i'm like overreacting just a little. the first month of the quarter is always expensive because of books and crap and especially since it's the beginning of the year, we had to stock up on groceries and stuff. so it makes sense, right? i'm not just a bad spender, right? right? hello? hello...?

anyway, the fire drill wasn't too bad. i set my alarm for like 705 because i didn't want to be awakened by the fire alarm. so i woke up at 705, got out of bed, looked around, and then plopped back into bed and just lay there waiting for the alarm. it is the freakiest, scariest alarm i've ever heard. it is NOT a normal alarm. it's like screechy and sounds like it belongs in a horror movie or something. anyway, got out of bed again when i heard the alarm go off. dragged my scrawny ass outside into the FREEZING COLD. it was unbelievably cold this morning. it was painful. it was also really really REALLY foggy. the fog here is really thick and really low since we're so close to the coast so yeah, that was gross too. it was kinda funny seeing like a ton of college sophomores standing outside at 7 am half-asleep and freezing though. okay, so i have a weird sense of humor. we checked in with carlos (our ra) and then just stood around waiting for them to tell us we could go in. me and sanaz just started singing "your song" from moulin rouge like really badly and totally off key. i don't know why we did that. we just did.

ooh!! that reminds me, whose line is it anyway last night was HYSTERICAL. yeah, it usually is, but like, every skit/game just made me burst out laughing. maaan, that show is hilarious. anyway, they played the "scenes from a hat" game, and there was this one scene that was like, "what life would be like if people randomly burst out into song." of course, couldn't help but start laughing because it totally reminded me of what happened last last weekend. and what ryan stiles did was pretty funny. he squat down and started singing, "*WHERE IS ALL THE TOILET PAPER? WHERE IS ALL THE TOILET PAPER?*" ahhh...such a funny show. =D

anyway, back to the fire drill. after we got the okay to go back to our rooms, carlos told all of us to head over to A5 where he had boxes of glazed krispy kreme donuts waiting for us!! he's such a cool guy...our building was the only building that got free krispy kreme donuts!! ;) so then i took one, went back to my room, and fell back asleep. when i woke up at 10, it was really warm and sunny!! such weird weather, man. but i didn't complain. :) love the sun.

blah, this is a boring blog. so i'll stop talking now. can't wait to go shopping with mel tomorrow though. yaaay!! :)

crap, crap, crappity crap. man, this week has been such a sucky one. i mean, nothing bad really happened and i wasn't really that swamped with work or exams or anything, it's just been a yucky week. but i started to cheer up today when i knew that i'd be able to wake up later tomorrow cuz i don't have class till 1245 on thursdays. BUT...just remembered that we have a stupid stupid STUPID emergency drill tomorrow at 7:15 am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good lord. they do this to us in order to spite us, i know it. bastards. damn dirty bastards.

on another cheerful note, my abs hurt like crazy. it feels like a pick up truck ran over my ribs. i can't sit up straight or cough or like, breathe without some pain. i know, i know, i'm such a whiny baby. whatever. aaaand, i can already tell what's going to happen tomorrow morning after i'm painfully woken up at the UNGODLY hour of 7:15 am. my arms are going to hurt like they've never hurt before. it's going to feel as if someone ripped my arms off during the night and then elmer glued them back into the sockets. we did like a bazillion push ups today in kickboxing. and these were not normal push ups. these were like crazy, insane, oh-dear-god-please-help-me push ups. we had to like do a push up, hustle over to the other side, do another push up, hustle back to the other side, do a push up...you get the idea. we did this till like the cows came home...and then went out...and then came back home again.

anyway...ooh!! whose line is on!!

why am i so stupid? why? why? whyyyy?? i hate physics. this really sucks. i'm not getting ANY of the homework. and i keep pestering sanaz and tasha (mostly sanaz) with questions. i don't get any of this. thank god i'm taking physics pass/no pass. but still...i mean, i'm doing some of the homework, but i don't even get how i'm doing it. i'm just like plugging in numbers into random formulas. even IF i was able to finish this stupid homework assignment, it wouldn't help me at all on the midterm and final cuz i JUST. DON'T. GET. ANYTHING.

shit. help. =*(

okay, so i'm sitting here reading physics and like the only thing running through my head is like this montage of all the embarrassing things i've done (that i can remember and haven't already blocked out)...falling off a chair (without being pushed. just...fell off.), getting locked in a bathroom stall during the ap history exam, falling up the stairs, falling down the stairs (at school, at home, at the dorms, etc), unknowingly singing to sanaz's mother, etc etc etc....

uuuuggghhh...can't. stop. COUGHING. well, actually, yes i can, but it still hurts. :( i have so much phlegm, it's gross. that's an interesting word - phlegm. it looks nothing like the way it's pronounced. anyway, i should totally be doing my physics homework right now. but all i wanna do is stare at the tv or perhaps close my eyes and lay down in my bed and not move.

ooh, i made pancakes for dinner today!! it was the first time i made pancakes too. ;) well, actually, when i was little, i used to mix the batter for my mom but she would always pour it onto the pan and do the whole flipping thing. the first pancake i made tonight turned out really funky looking. but whatever, i figured it all goes down the same way. but the other three came out not so bad looking. and when i actually ate it...yummmm...tastiness. ;)

anyway, physics is sitting on my lap. i'd rather bash my head into the wall. i think the reason i'm not caring so much is cuz i'm taking physics pass/no pass. yeah, yeah, yeah, i still need to do my homework. bleh. ;[

lalalalala...PHYSICS CAN KISS MY BONY ASS.

oh god, i'm having hot flashes again. *fans herself*

hey, just added new link down there to the right. say hello to my momma deb. well, actually, just go read her blog. you'll see where i get half of my loopiness from - from momma deb. the other half comes from my papa jo. ;) (haha, that sounds almost like papa john's.)

hmm...i think i'm getting sick. i've been coughing more lately and neha told me my voice is starting to sound more coarse. this is true. but now when i cough, my abs hurt. :( from kickboxing. this happened during the summer too. except that i wasn't sick; it's just that every time i sneezed my abs hurt like a beotch. anyway, neha and tasha were nice enough to get me some cough drops when they took their quick trip to ralph's tonight. but when i popped one in, it stayed in my mouth for a total of one minute before i spit it out - despite vehement protesting on neha and tasha's parts. IT TASTES NNNNNASTY. hecka nast, man. ;)

okay, still haven't taken my socks off yet. actually, they're very comfortable. i'm wearing purple toe socks. with red pajamas. clashing like crazy tonight.

uuugghh...trying to study for vietnamese test. falling asleeeeeep... actually, i was studying for my italian test earlier and i was completely nodding off. i was doing this exercise where i change the noun and adjective to plurals (ex. change patient child to patient children) and i kept nodding off on this one part so i had to erase it and do it over again like five times, but each time i tried to redo it, i would nod off again so it was like *erase* *scribble* *zzzz...* "d'oh!" *erase* *scribble* *zzzz...* "d'oh!!" you get the idea. at one point, i even thought that i was doing a physics problem because i woke up to find a division sign in between the noun and the adjective. i finally woke up when neha called out to natasha.

so then i got up to take a break and make dinner and hopefully wake myself up. it worked up until i started studying for vietnamese. then i started nodding off again. man, the hardest thing about learning vietnamese is like the vocabulary and all the stupid, STUPID accent marks. took my first vietnamese quiz last thursday and like, half the paper was marked in red cuz i missed about a bazillion accent marks or got them wrong or whatever. anyway...why am i so sleepy? i'm thinking it might be the workout in kickboxing today; over the summer, i tended to get really sleepy after kickboxing.

oh, i woke up this morning with like the weeeeirdest feeling. i couldn't put my finger on it. i had no idea why i felt so weird until i was just standing there brushing my teeth and then i started to remember the feeling of my dream. like, i couldn't remember the actual dream or what happened in it, but i could just remember the feeling. like, say you had a dream where big, scary men were chasing after you with knives and guns but you woke up and didn't remember the actual dream but you remember feeling scared. am i making any sense? well, anyway...this feeling that i had...well...this is going to sound bad. but i think i had some kind of kinky, naughty dream or something. i can't believe i'm even writing about this in my blog, but oh well. hmm...i just wrote something very explicit, but i decided to erase it all. ;)

man, i'm hot. time to take off my...socks. ;)

what a waste of a weekend, man. i was so unproductive. today, i watched tv ALL FREAKING DAY LONG. good god, i'm such a bum. and who in the world is "random" in the reblog thing in my last blog? i command thee to reveal thyself!!
