split ends aren't worth it .

like i said in my last blog, i just keep on pulling out my split ends . i don't split the ends, i just pull them out, if that makes any sense . once i get started it takes me forever to stop, i usually have to tie it up . sad, i know ..

on the bright side, this is a WARM week, its like 80's &70's, i know in the middle of winter ?! well that's just how it works in Southern California . i think today was the hottest day of the week, the five day forcast says so, or is it seven now-a-days .. whatever .

there's a few dates i need to keep in mind, for the 2 upcoming weeks or for the rest of the month .
my second draft of my internal is due on friday .
no school, dad leaves for the philippines &lakers vs cavs on the 19 .
first semester finals 21-23
my final extended essay is due on the 22 .
small group outing on the 23 .
winter formal on the 31 .

i think it's time to erase my whiteboard because it still says "december 08) hah . &i need to find a dress for formal, my first attempt will be this weekend, hopefully .

increase productivity

this weekend, i didn't do much at all . the only things i did that was productive was clean my room, give my dog a bath, go to church, &do a lazy job on my homework . only that for 3 days ! talk about lazy . oh &i made a polyatomic chart &put it on my wall, to help me memorize the charges, formulas &such .

i need to stop pulling my split ends ! if there was some way to practice not touching them, i would do it 24/7 . this very second im trying hard to not touch it . i blogtv'd yesterday with my brother &cousin, to alvin &harvey's friend . it was okay, we just danced &looked stupid . im gonna try &sleep early today, so ill end this nonsense blog now .

connections, somewhat ..

another earthquake today, nothing really big . i think i was shaking my leg, then i stopped &i was like is this an earthquake ? then yeahh . is it me or are earthquakes occuring more often ? i know that earthquakes are always happening, but they're usually so weak that no one can feel it.

so i turned my not finished extended essay into an internal assessment for coop today, i just had to get rid of 506 words . believe me that's not easy, i had to get rid of a lot of things . i have to add like at least 500 words to the extended essay to complete it for ms zizz .i wasn't stressing over it, i didn't have much to research anything, cause i had too much info . i just started to get all stressy like because i said i wanted it done by 12 haha, &i did (:

this one administrator from my school, Dr. Mims came to jordan i think last year &now he left to be the principal at Westchester High School in LA . &guess who graduated from there ... yup, Trevor Ariza ahaha that's pretty crazy . i know we didn't really like Dr. Mims, cause he thought he ruled the school &he was just an administrator but heyy now he can act like that cause he's the principal . honestly i didn't really like the way he was to us, but he was nice to me haha . he was on campus today, cause LAUSD schools are still on break &this one girl was like "why is he here?" . well if you watch this video, you'll see that Trevor Ariza still stops by the school &talks to the basketball team and such, and that Kobe Bryant "adopted" the school &he visits once in a while too . i was telling my cousn about this &i told him i shoulda went up to Dr. Mims &say "get kobe &trevor to come visit jordan" haha but that's kinda messed up . doing the whole i dont like you, but you have the hook ups &be all nice to him kinda deal . basically using the guy . but yeahh, i wouldn't even say anything to him, unless he called me . wow that's long haha .

my dads going to the philippines on the 19 and is going to be gone til feburary 3 . that meanss, i have a car for like three weeks . he's not going to be here during finals week &winter formal . yeah, but im not going to go out &party like something my sister would do ... that also means that its gonna be just me &my mom at home for three weeks, cause my brothers never home .

usually stuff like this doesnt affect me but today i got friend requests, comments, texts & a whole lot of IMs all regarding different things . but they all made me feel happy, helpful &wanted, well not exactly but somewhere around there . its not like i never get this, but today all of it put together had a good affect on me (:


random picture: blood drive day .

sleeping 101

if there was really a class, i would take it . since i seriously don't understand how everytime i take a nap &sleep early, i end up waking up late ... &when i sleep late with a nap or without a nap (doesn't matter still less sleep than sleeping early) i end up waking normal . blah, i guess in order for me to wake up early, i sleep late .


oh my lakers, won today with their lost from yesterday &lamar odom got injured . but he's not seriously injured . hopefully he's back by friday's game, not like that game is big, just saying haha . farmar &walton are still out, due to injuries; hmmm &their both close friends, they planned it so they didn't have to play, just kidding . trevor ariza ♥ had a good game today, season high with 17 points? he had the highest plus points thingys with a +21 (:


i am curious to see Lamar play against Lebron, next monday . cause my brother keeps saying "lamar can be as good as lebron, if he wanted to."

speaking of my brother, he's like never home anymore . a friend was saying how he's the only one home now from his 3 other siblings, one moved out, another in iraq, &the other on the east coast &how he's the only one at home . he was like he's the only child blah . &i realized "heyyy, me tooooo ." not something to be happy about . i mean my sister lives across the street or whatever, but she doesn't stay here long, &my brother is always out, so its basically me, &my parents at home now . at this very moment it's just us three . normally i would never refer to me &my parents as "us three", it usally is me, my brother &sister . but hey things change ...

oh nine so fine

drive better
sooo its O9, im finally driving (: i drove on my own to target on new years eve to get a new camera then today i went to another target to buy a new planner . i drove yesterday but siblings in the car . i think im driving fine, but i know i have to keep on practicing . enough about my driving rants. almost spent the countdown in my sisters car, made it just in time . thank god, rightt ?

school started today, it was a good first day back didn't get homework from my classes, finished She's the Man in english class . we got a new permanent sub in chemistry he's cool this time . yuppp . Secret Life of the American Teenager, Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill all came back today yayuhh, &direct tv doesn't overlap any of the three . just wait till Chuck comes back . Badminton Tryouts tomorrow, hope it goes well . i wonder if i get a say in the tryouts (just cause the TC is me hah)
