2010 Recap

Okay so it's not the 31, it's actually the first day of 2011, but whatever. Wow 2010, this year was pretty much average, I guess... I don't know. I feel like so much happened this year, but I can't really think bleh but here it goes.
In 2010 I
- Got into a car accident.
- Had a Disneyland pass.
- Got closer to people I've known forever.
- Continued to grow spiritually.
- Went to San Diego last minute with Mimi and stayed at Tita Del's like always.
- Drove around San Diego with only Mimi.
- Went camping twice.
- Started going C&C bible studies.
- Started consistently going CPYF bible studies.
- Watched movies with Wilfred, Alvin, and Kevin thanks to Grace.
- Tokboxed a lot.
- Started playing violin again.
- Grew closer with all sides of the family.
- Saw the little ones growing up.

So much has happened, but I can't name everything that happened. I praise God for everything that has happened because I know God is sovereign. (Romans 8:28).

Winter break, about time ha kidding. Well I'm a little late, but Praise God anyways (: After the slowest final's week so far, I just thank Him for giving me sustenance not only for this week, but the whole semester. Break has been good so far, I just found out that I got an A on my chem final, my first one in college haha; if I got a C I would still be happy because honestly we don't deserve anything but death.

03. C&C Wednesday night bible studies.
04. CPYF Friday night bible studies.
05. Having at least a 3 day weekend every week.
06. Study session Mondays at Mimi's, with Joel sometimes.
07. Once in a while studying with Loris, Abby, etc.
08. Random CPYF tokbox sessions
09. 8 AM classes everyday..til the end.
10. Getting owned by Calc 2, thus taking a W in the class..
11. Lazy days at home.
12. Random lunchbox sessions.
13. Mimi and Ate parking next to or near me.
14. STRESS.
15. God's loving grace and mercy!

Borderline grades.

An email from my professor.
Hi Angelica,
I will only round up if you are .50 points or closer to the next
grade. Since you would need 1.5 points I will not be able to round
your score up.
Thanks,
Josh

Borderline grades suck.

Over the years #1

Mimi and Jeremae Version

Last day of classes for Fall 2010

Yay, it feels really good to be done with classes for the semester, I've been waiting for this semester to end for like a few weeks and it's been going by so slow. This semester has probably been the toughest so far, but I mean it's only my third semester in college, I guess it gets harder every time. I am just go grateful that the LORD is always there, even after the times I decide to do homework, instead of His work. I need to stop pushing the things that matter aside.

Summary of today
1. Debate class for like 25 min
2. Lab for like 30 min.
3. Boba with Christian and Darien
4. "Computered"
5. NAPPPP
6. Curled hair out of boredom.
7. Phone with Serena
8. More computering.
9. Being unproductive.

The longer you stare...

The funnier it gets.

Exam down

I'm going to try and make one of these for every exam, unless I have a mass number of exams right after each other. You guys' have to admit though, that you like that feeling you get right when you turn in your exam and walk out the class, that it's over with feeling, yeah that one, it gets me every single time. Like everything thing this world gives us, that feeling doesn't last, espescially when you start thinking about your answers on your exam and how it got the problem wrong, well.. that's a whole other thing. Now 6 days till the next exam, and it's my make it or break it exam for calculus.

Things learned by studying for this exam
1. Finding pH throughout titration of a diprotic acid/base
2. Principal series
3. My Chemistry class this semester covers a lot of Chem 111A/B Material
3. Studying at home doesn't work for me anymore.

Oh yeah check this out, a room decorated with $10 worth of Sharpies.
Pretty cool.

List #8

1. I'm doing horrible this semester. &it's all on me.
2. Unnecessary distractions.
3. Sadly, my split ends are one of my biggest distractions.
4. I need a more effective way of studying.
5. Seahorses, I miss you guys.
6. The next three weeks are going to be less social and more academic.
7. Follow through!
8. Stop watching tv and DVR everything!
9. Our fellowship with God must be consistent!
10. I like the lab we're doing in Chemistry at the moment.
11. Hang on a few more weeks!

Just like the exams for school, I'm failing God's tests as well. Stop being so selfish Angelica, and sacrifice for the Lord.

19.

First off I just want to praise God for blessing me with 19 years, and of course Christ, because if he hadn't come to save us I wouldn't be here. This year has truly been a blessing, being my first year as an "adult" but I don't really consider that stuff, ahah but I can actually say I've changed this past year (for the better) and it's not because of me but it's because of God, and He deserves all the glory.

What a wonderful day today really was, my phone kept on vibrating/ringing every minute because of happy birthday greetings via text or facebook notifications. I'm very grateful that my Grandpa from Vegas came today also, but I can't really say he came for my birthday cause he didn't ahah. Still it's good that I got to see him, last time I saw him was like ... May?

Since the next 3 weeks are going to be heavy school work, I am grateful for today.

It was a sunglasses kinda day.

Today, well since it's already 2 AM yesterday was a really good day for me, except the fact that I was 20 minutes late to my first class...

1. Really really lovely weather today.
2. Comm 131 was really fun and hilarious, that class is growing on me.
3. Didn't really have a lab to do today, but I stayed for a while to prepare for the next one.
4. Watched this weeks episode of Chuck and Modern Family
5. Also watched some basketball, it's good to have the NBA season back.
6. Got the basics of my speech done.
7. My mom made cinnamon rolls, and I was craving them yesterday!
8. A phone call from my dad, in the Philippines.
9. My hair was actually decent today.

This week, even though it started with rainy weather (that I'm still thankful for, because God is sovereign) was pretty good. I got to sorta hang with Rowena, see Joseph, Jimmy, Kim, and Gerlene, all at different days oh the first semester of last year kids, that I don't see anymore. &Van and Alan. And I got to sorta hang out with the cousins on Tuesday. College and Career bible study is changing things up, but not the bad change. The Lakers had a nice "dramatic" season opener win. I can just go on and on about this week. Another thing is that the week's not over yet! Praise God for blessing me with a wonderful week, even those the past two weeks have been rough I know that God is still there and aware (omnipresent and omniscient) not only for me, but for you who believe and have faith in Him. To God be the glory!

Random Blurb.

I like to connect things I learn at school, church, bible study, devotion to my everyday conversations.

So when you hear me talk about chemistry or calculus to you, I don't mean to sound like a know it all show off; it just helps me remember what I learned for class. However when you hear me talk about God and/or the Bible, it's not only for me, but it's also for you.

Gray Tuesday

It was one of those days where I had a REALLY REALLY horrible day at school, but it ended good.

Happy birthday to "bfffffff"? Joseph!

Joseph 9:31 pm
Joseph: brb
Joseph: spagitti!!
Joseph: XD
angelica 12:45 am
HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYYY
Joseph: 12:46 am

hahaha jk
thankyou<3
eeekangelica 12:46 am
YOU NEVER CAME BACK!
Joseph: 12:46 am

:]

Me and exams.

I have come to a conclusion to why I always do horrible on exams... I take them to simply get them over with...

List #7

1. Ephesians 4:31-32
2. I'm really scared for tomorrow.
3. As difficult as Calculus 2 is, sacrificing for the Lord is much more difficult. But it's prize is much better than a good grade.
4. It's not about what I want.
5. "You're not the only one." "Sometimes I feel like I am."
6. If I was getting distracted by the right things it's acceptable.
7. Study for Calc exam tomorrow!
8. Start research for COMM 131 paper.
9. Clean my room.
10. Read for Chemistry.
11. Catch up on Chem problems!
12. ACTS ACTS ACTS.
13. God, others, then myself.

As long as you are glorified

Constant Reminder.
The Bible says it straight up "do not be conformed to this world", and I try my best to follow God's word every time. This world that we live in is filled with sin, and it is so easy to get caught up in it. And that is where we have to constantly have to remind ourselves that our lives should be centered on God.

So I am sorry if I'm not doing what everyone else is doing, sorry if I'm not performing a song that the world wants to hear, sorry if I'm embarrassing the world; but I mean, if I know I am making the one and only Father happy then their feelings won't matter.

Paul did not care what the Jews thought of him. "For I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus." (Acts 21:13) He knew why the Jews did not like him, but it didn't matter, he was ready to go to prison and even die for God, because his life revolved around God. That's how we all should be as well.

List #6

Thoughts.
1. Finish my review on Acts.
2. Yay, I did a whole calc assignment without a guide.
3. Calc exam next week! Aghhh.
4. I love my reminder on the wall behind my laptop (: Picture soon.
5. My mom, just chill and rest. Stay strong!
6. I wanted to watch World of Color tonight with ALL the cousins ):
7. My voice needs to recover from last week's sore throat.
8. So I can practice with Kuya.
9. I like my inconsistency with watching Chuck. But recently I've been on it.
10. Thankful for DVR, it's not that big to me, but it's nice to have.
11. Nice weather for the next few days.. according to the forecast.
12. Gahh, I just killed a HUGE spider...
13. Also glad that my lab instructor did my second set of titrations for me, and I didn't ask or need help haha.
14. SHARE, SHARE, SHARE!
Go into the world and share the gospel to the whole creation. Mark 16:15.

A gift from lab.

Silver Nitrate stain on my middle finger.
In lab today, I was preparing a solution containing AgNO3. Almost every time we work with AgNO3, I end up with a stain.

Anyways, like the stain on my finger, every thing this world gives us will not last forever. Continuing our study on 1 Peter in College and Career bible study, we went over that we are not redeemed by perishable things like Gold and Silver (1 Peter 1:18). Get it? Get it, like my stain... Silver Nitrate... hey, I tried... But we are redeemed by the precious blood of Christ (1 Peter 1:19). Not saved by money, friends, school, social status, cars, video games, etc. But by the blood of Jesus Christ.

Oh John harvey...

Summer days like these.

Good day, spent with good people.

Word in. Word out.

Taken from Hannah.
(Click photo to enlarge).
Praise God for a very successful youth camp! Knowing some of the struggles the officers had while planning, I was so glad to see everything work out. This weekend was if not the best, one of the best ever; I loved every second of it. I came back from camp with so much, from getting to know more about the girls in my cabin, small group, all the campers, even myself, to, of course being a servant of God. It's amazing what 3 days away from the city can do to a person or at least me. During my one on one session with Loris, I told her one struggle that's really big for me, and I was holding in my tears it was weird, I never would have cried over that. She helped me straighten things out and figure out what I need to do without telling me what to do. Then Pastor Godfrey's message during session 4, really hit me, it was as if Pastor was there during my one on one session. You can have all the things in the world, a good job, nice car, big house, billions of dollars, etc but still be poor. I miss my cabin girls, if we were still together we'd probably talking about food aha. I miss the "full name-ers". I miss group 4 fun night skit group, paaaaaaaaaartyyy! I miss my small group girls, with the awkward silences. I miss camp. Words don't even express how grateful I am, God is sooooo good, all the time and all the time He is good.

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

James 1:22

We must not only read the Bible, we have to do what it tells us to do. Thanks to this morning's personal devotion James 2: 17 clearly says "Faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." We must do what the Bible tells us to do, but before we become doers, we must read it, and understand it.

More about the session 4 message, Jesus left everything to do the work of God. I need to be less selfish and sacrifice for God. I need to set my priorities on what really matters. Like Pastor Godfrey said, "you don't need a fancy college degree", what you need is God. It's going to be one crazy ride, but I'm seat-belted in and ready for Him.

They grow up so fast.

Back in 2008

They were so tiny back then. Now I'm wearing Echo's jersey in my facebook picture ahaha.

Growing up.

"You know you're growing up when the kids that have always been in VBS your whole life are now part of the VBS staff/crew."

Praise God.

Sidetracked

It's took me forever to actually start writing this blog, I've been siting in front of my laptop just looking at my hair.. I had a whole blog going on in my head, but I just can't seem to put it together right now, I'll save that for another time I suppose. Anyways so today I had my midterm for my online history class, I must admit I did pretty good, I mean I only read the first 3 chapters, however it was an open book soooo I guess a decent grade was expected, a 91% sounds about right. Due to me being sidetracked I forgot what I wanted to blog about, and results in this random blog.

Oh and Matt Barnes, I have mixed feelings about this one. I personally am not his biggest fan, but his game can help the team.

Midterm Week in Summer.

Room Cleaning Fun.

As I was playing Animal Crossings: City Folk in Wii, I named my character neon and I was talking to one of my neighbors and they said something like "Oh your name is neon? .... You're a pretty solid person." I don't know it made me laugh.

Anyways this week is midterm week for my summer school class, I did 2 chapter discussions and a video summary already but there's still plenty more to do. I have 1 more chapter discussion and 3 more video summaries due by Wednesday night, but you know me I want everything done by Tuesday.. today. Then I have my midterm on Thursday and Friday.

A Pretty Balanced Day
01. Washed my car
02. 2 Chapter discussions and a video summary.
03. Cherry, pineapple popsicles.
04. Mini cream puffs.
05. My favorite Filipino meal, Nilaga.
06. Jacob and Jeremae came over.
07. Played video games.

It's been 3 years.

Incheon airport.
I believe Makati from the airplane view.

On July 12, 2007 I landed in the Philippines, for what happened to be a very long vacation. I was reading my old blog, and it said that the day before we left for the Philippines, my Dad's passport came in the mail, I so remember that now praise God for that! (Even though it's like 3 years late) On the flight to Philippines, I remember I was trying to do my summer assignment ahah, DS, and listened to my ipod. Then we had a stop over at Incheon, South Korea, that was a very clean, nice, and not crowded airport. Then took a 4 hour flight or something to Philippines and waited from there. Me and my aunt rode with Kuya Momon, and my dad being my dad rode with Kuya Willie. I remember thinking it was dirty and it was raining all of a sudden and super hot. On the way out of the airport, I remember seeing those pink booth thingys and I think we all know what that is. I miss the Philippines.

Sorry Cleveland.

My little cousin's picked my outfit out today.
My Stylists, minus my sister.
Throwing up 3. As in the new big 3?

Those webcam pictures were taken before the whole Lebron special, just saying. Sorry you've probably heard plenty of this already but it's my turn. Lebron, I personally think New Jersey was the best route, think about it.. turning the team that came in last with season wins to like playoffs anddd with the chance of the team moving to Brooklyn c'mon; I would have been fine if he stayed in Cleveland. Oh well too late, but man Miami.. If he wanted a ring that bad, should have just gone to the Lakers. Quote me on that, shooot.

Good day today, spent with my mom's side and Joel and Daniel. Watched Toy Story 3 again, worth it, got free boba as well; those stamp cards sure come in handy eventually.

Good Morning.

It sucks when someone wakes you up to move your car for street sweeping; especially when it's not your car. As grumpy as I was getting out of bed, I'm very thankful now because mornings are so lovely. Since I've been sleeping late, I haven't been awake this early in a while, and it feels good.

Stay

"Letting go doesn’t mean giving up, but rather accepting that there are things that cannot be.

- Anonymous

There's a reason why something is not with you in the present; it belongs in the past and it doesn't belong with you in the future. But sometimes it does, it'll find it's way and meets you in the future.

But as for now, stay in the past and maybe I'll see you in the future.

Monday blog.

As of this moment I have a number of things on my mind, which has caused me to feel down. However I believe that none of those things have a reason to make me feel like this. As much as I love making lists, sometimes it's better to actually talk to a person.

Backyard

Sun was out, therefore lighting was nice outside. I just started taking pictures with my simple camera, nothing great. My dogs wish they were models or something.

I must not give up, keep going! Oh yeah Toy Story 3 is a great movie, it was a perfect way to end the Toy Story series I think. I wouldn't want a 4th installment like Shrek. I should sleep, or try to.

Chill Tuesday.

They're cool :P

Today was fun, I liked it.
1. Bike riding with Grace.
2. Saw Sam at school while waiting for Kevin at his school.
3. Finally saw Kevin after MIA for 2 weeks.
4. Taco Tuesday and Boba with Alvin and Grace.
5. Watched the Laker game at Wilfred's house with everyone.
6. 2-1!
7. I came home to that picture haha.

Jessie

Me: What's the Cowgirl's name in Toy Story 2?
Grace: I don't know, I forgot.
*4 hours later or something.
Grace(to Alvin): What's the Cowgirl in Toy Story?
Alvin(to Grace): I don't know..
Alvin(to Me): What's the Cowgirl in Toy story name?
Me: I don't know I asked Grace that earlier.
*2 days later
Text from Grace: Woody's girlfriend is named Jessie!..

I love how we didn't let this one go hahaha.

Nice game, but it's not over yet. Get business done on the road.

I really wanted to sleep early today, well I've been trying to sleep early for this break, cause I just personally want to. Maybe the nap that I took before the game started might be a factor to why I am still awake. However I must say that, that nap helped me get rid of my headache from earlier.

Freshman year

I finally got it.

Finally Summer vacation is here, meaning that I am done with my first year of college. Yay... Now that it is here, I can wait til June 6 to register for summer school at a local JC. In the mean time, it's time to relax and chill. Catch up on a couple personal things and WORK OUT. I have a goal for myself and it is to Go to the Gym or exercise 4 days a week. I don't know if I can, but I'm going to try. I'm so glad it's May and Summer vacation, now just waiting for people to come and visit. Since you know big Filipino family with family all over the place, at least one family member will come to So Cal every summer. Catching up with Jordan kids on Tuesday, I'm excited; even though we often talk to each other, well ... most of us anyways. Gym tomorrow.

Happy Mother's Day!

My Momma and I when we were at Vegas.

Mother's day which means, finals are right around the corner. Actually I have one tomorrow. &2 more this week. Then 2 on the actual week of finals. Also means summer's right there too!

Metric System

"Fluid ounces? What's that I only know liters and milliliters."

- Myself.

Sorry, I don't have any idea of how large or small a fluid ounce container would be. Seriously.

Bad timing, all the time?

I suppose I have bad timing, so I just finished all my online quizzes problems and when I'm ready to put in my answers the website is down and I can't put it in, sucks. It's due on Wednesday, but me being the person I am wants to get this over with. Which is why I'm blogging right now.


I still have to study for my Calculus exam and Chemistry exam. Last set of midterms this week! I have my version of a countdown kind of. Praise God this week is starting off good. Had a very lovely and productive Sunday, and today was nice as well. Mary and I finally got our perfect quiz score! Ironically we got it on the hardest section, hey we're not complaining though.

List #4

Super Frustrated.
1. Choose a side to write about.
2. Write my thesis.
3. Calculus quiz Monday.
4. English essay rough draft Wednesday.
5. Calculus exam Thursday.
6. Chemistry exam Friday.
7. Chemistry Online quizzes Monday and Wednesday
8. Grateful for not needing to go to Lab til May 5.
9. MUST MANAGE TIME FOR THE NEXT 7 DAYS.
10. My dogs and all the other dogs in this neighborhood need to stop barking at each other!
11. Help?

I cannot write or even start this essay for English. Open Immigration ... it's either I'm for it or not. Like my high school junior and senior history teacher would say, "You're either pregnant or not.". I'm getting so angry, due to the fact I can't do anything on this paper, I haven't done anything else homework wise, since I said I was going down my things to do list I wrote down in my planner with "Thesis" being #1. I'm getting annoyed by the dogs in this neighborhood including mines all barking at each other; they won't stop!

"In your anger do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent."

- Psalms 4:4
I must not let my anger get to me. I will not let it.

Whatever happened to "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas"?

I’m pretty sure everyone has heard that saying some time during their life. As Serena was telling me last night, “You just went to Vegas!”. I went to Vegas about 2 weeks ago or so, and I keep on thinking about when I’m going back again. I don’t know why I want to go back, I mean we did not do much at all; we were shopping for most of the time. I pretty much went there to babysit my 10 year old cousin, so my aunt could go gamble and shop like crazy. The purpose of the whole trip was to visit my Grandpa after his surgery, and we only went out with him once, and that was for Dimsum. It’s good to know he is doing fine though. Back to the point of this blog, nothing interesting happened to me on this trip, the most interesting thing was probably the Vans guy, but that wasn’t even that interesting. Why can’t I just let what happened in Vegas stay there? It’s just Las Vegas…

I must admit, it felt good to be gone for a few days. Few more weeks to go

Not Feeling It.

No I am not talking about that earthquake that happened earlier today. However I did think it was pretty ironic how the earthquake occurred when we kinda a little more than just started but started watching 2012. "God got mad at us for watching the movie" Haa. That movie though... sure is uhh.. fiction, fiction as a fairytale.

Anyways school resumes tomorrow. I really am not feeling this semester, I wish I was but I just am not. The classes I study like crazy for, I don't do good in, however the classes I kind of put aside I am doing great in. I don't know, maybe I put them aside because I know the class isn't hard? Or is it that I am doing bad because I am studying too much... I can't quite figure it out. Hopefully I do.

I just really want to end this semester already.

I thought it was Spring?

Last time I checked it was Spring. This weather is so messing me up, not really but yeah. Even right now one minute the sun is out and the next it's gone. It's so cold, I'm wrapped in my blanket right now. Anyways I am not in the mood for this, but I'm doing my English homework. This class is soooo KJASFL:KJSADLKJAF! I guess it's not really "a lot" of homework, but I just don't want to do it. I shouldn't be complaining.

I am enjoying this break, no need to go out everyday this week. It's called Spring break not vacation. I just need to rest to have enough energy to finish this semester.

A day on the coast of LA

Monday of Spring Break was well spent with Moises and Mike. Filled with lovely weather, sand, Venice, Santa Monica, driving, looking for parking, pictures, airheads and Bubba Gumps.

Hello Spring.

Taken via my phone

No more cold cold cold Winter weather, and onward with Spring weather. I'm looking forward on finishing the last half of this semester and getting to Summer. But got to deal with Spring first. Living day by day, I'm on this much needed SPRING BREAK.

This week

I must get through this week. In order to get to Spring Break.

I must. It's one of those steep hills.

There's other things I can be doing.

This is my 3rd blog, I saved the previous two because I couldn't add more to what I had. I don't know why I blog when I have loads of homework and studying to do. I am not going to say I am ahead, because I am not. With a few changes I must say this week has been better than it's been all semester. However Calculus is not better than it's been all semester, I must get on that. Even when I do, I still don't get the acceptable (for me anyways) scores.

Anyways I'm watching this Portland at Golden State basketball game, GS down by 3, &Portland has the ball, around 20 seconds left and then at like 3 seconds CJ Watson fouls. I mean If you're going to foul don't wait &let 18 seconds go to waste, and if you're waiting for the shot clock to end, don't foul! You would think professionals would know this, but hey they're not perfect. You already know who is. What I'm getting out of this is that if your planning to waste time, make sure you follow through with the reason why your killing time. I don't know if this makes sense, but I just got it from this game.

Keep the Rhythm.
1. Rough draft advertisement essay due Monday.
2. Redo Calculus homework again &again til I get it for Mondays quiz.
3.Study for the nothing I know in Sociology, midterm on Tuesday.
3.5. Thank God for the teacher's Review!
4. Finish up Lab, since I did it early.
5. Continue reading Chapter 16.
6. Rewrite Credo essay for better grade due Friday

Ctrl + C

Why does it feel like, you're copying me?

Every time..

Time to Step Up

"One of the secrets of life is to make stepping stones out of stumbling blocks."

- Jack Penn

It is about time that I do this. It is about that I stop wasting time with people that just waste time. It is about time that I realize what I should and shouldn't be worrying about. It is time.

I didn't even know nor notice that Kobe had some stomach illness until now.




Matt Barnes don't you know that's Kobe Bean Bryant you failed to mess with. He eats basketballs for breakfast.

He will be there.

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."

- Joshua 1:9

I have met my match.

I've had my little bumps on the road, however now I feel like I have a battle to deal with. I've met my match, but no one said I was going to lose. I must fight this, it's not going to be easy, but I have to do this. However my pessimistic self is telling me I can't. I know I can't do this alone, I have to P.U.S.H.

Pray Until Something Happens.

What more can I do?

I don't know what else I can do. I try and try but it doesn't get me anywhere. I seriously thought I was doing better, but I guess not. I already pretty much gave up socializing, and studied 22 hours a day. I suppose the 2 hours really make a difference, it's ridiculous. I felt like I had everything together, but I guess not, what more can is there for me to do?

1. Bad day at school, since I bombed an exam.
2. last two classes didn't meet today.
3. Went out to eat with the most random combination of Aunts and Uncles today.
4. Pashaled at Redondo Beach after.
5. Family came over for dinner today.
6. Andrea must really love my masks.
7. Ate Rosalie and Kuya Nelson have bad memory when they're drunk.

10. Good day for a last day before diet starts.
11. Didn't practice toe spin.
12. Kuya Delfin leaves tomorrow, a sad sight to see.
13. I really miss fishing.
14. I love my family.
15. I miss my dad.
16. Although I do take advantage of our free international calls plan and call him too much.
17. STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY
18. And even #17 won't be enough.

Focused

Woah talk about focus, I pretty much just redid all the homework assigned for the chapters that covers this midterm. And I didn't have a hard time, I must admit it took like 7 hours, but hey I know the material.

Happy 18 Kevin Mashby Rey Ramirez!

Tsa!

I got to get me some of these! It sucks when my tea bag falls into my thermos.

How school can keep you updated.

While working on the Sociology paper that I am suppose to be finishing up at the moment, I wanted to share the article I am doing my paper on.

Living Near a Freeway? Heart Disease may be Higher

It is quite interesting, people that live near a freeway has a higher chance of getting heart disease than people who do not.

I must admit, if I did not have to do this assignment I would most likely not know about this; being that I do not really read the LA times. My only form of news is pretty much the headline articles on Yahoo, and the stories on the local News programs (that I barely watch). Without class assignments like this, I would not be informed on some of the things going on in the world, however fortunately I have class like that..

Okay, back to my paper.

I Got my Own too.

It's not my problem, but why am I in this?

I have my own things to worry about, stuff that really matter..

It's the Truth

I just love (hyperbole) how chemistry sometimes can work as similes to life.

There's a First Time for Everything

Congratulations New Orleans Saints on your first NFL championship!

Like last year I was watching it at home, but instead of being alone for some reason my sister was here as well. And instead of playing piano like last year I was doing homework while watching the game. However just like last year I was screaming and the team I was going for won again (;

Cleaning helps

Majority a Good Day but...

I had a good day today, actually a pretty great day. I got good news, good lessons in class, good weather, a great nap, and so on. However one little thing towards the end of the day just starts to bother me, something that bothered me before, something that shouldn't even be bothering me at all. It sucks because I had such a great day and now it feels as if that didn't mean anything because it's ending on a bad note that shouldn't even exist. It's better when bad things happens earlier in the day because there's always something else that can make me forget about it but since it's at the end of the day there's nothing left to happen for the day.

Come please

Calculus book,
Please come soon, you're about 3 days late already and I ordered you on the 13th of January. You were supposedly shipped on the 14. Since the tracking number I was given to track you is invalid, I have no idea where you are. You are needed at the moment, I am pretty much useless in that class without you. I already paid for you, so come soon. Ugh, I am not planning to get anything below a B in this class so yeah, come soon.

Angelica


Don't get the wrong idea, I just feel like I can't do my work without the book, which makes sense so yeah.

First Day Back Migraine

Every time I come back to school from a long break at the end of the day I always have a migraine bothering me. However I always know the perfect cure for this first day back to school migraine and it's to simply eat when I get home, take tylenol (if I feel like I need to) and then take a nap. Today being my first day of my freshman spring semester, was no different I had a bad mirgraine and just ate and slept it away haha.

First days with bad headache/migraine
- High school Sophomore year
- High school Junior year
- High school Senior year
- Fall 2009 semester
- Spring 2010 semester.

&I expect it to continue..

Change of Plans.

Recently I've made plans to do something, like wash the dogs, buy next semesters parking permit, empty out my backpack, etc. however my plans didn't go through. Earlier this week I went to San Diego for 4 days, therefore I couldn't buy my permit nor empty my backpack. This crazy weather Southern California is having, is preventing me from washing my dogs. There have been quite a few factors that have made me change my plans to do things. As of this very moment, I am suppose to be sleeping because I have to wake up at 8 to get my permit, but instead here I am blogging via my cellphone because I can't sleep. I know I could have slept earlier but I was just so into learning to play 'Something There' on the piano. I was also suppose to continue reading this book after the dissapointing Laker game, but that piano again. Hopefully my plans don't keep changing because I plan on being ready for school before Sunday.

What happened to YOUR thoughts?

I wish people blogged like they did before, like not just posting videos, images, or "reblogging" another person's post. Sure, I know you like whatever you posted, but can you at least happen to tell your audience why you posted it up or something. I mean I read your blog to know what your personal opinion is on things, you know? I just see so much reblogging, or just a video or image; I find that so flat out boring. I like to read and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.

Oranges

Oh the wonderful taste of citrus. Vitamin C, Fiber, Vitamin A, Thiamin, Potassium and more all inn one fruit (:

Grateful

Thinking about all the thoughts in my head
Not really paying attention
Going when it was Red
Really taught me a great lesson
Oh how I was such a fool
I had so many tears going down my face
I was already so close to school
After the incident I get a call from Grace
She comes over with SHC and a few others
They get my mind off of things for a bit
Still missing my phone &being jealous of my mother's
Ending the night with a wonderful game of Scene it

I'm so thankful for the people in my life. They are always there for you, the "are you okay?" that I got today either from phone, person or AIM really mean a lot to me. I just Praise God that I'm okay and the other party and things went down smoothly. &hopefully it stays like that. Things could have gone a lot worst, and I'm just so thankful that it happened the way it did. God is my Savior and today he was there and always is.
