oh, it is spring!

How I wish to get those words outta my mouth already.

It’s already middle of January. Is it just me, or does time fly by hella fast nowadays? A weekend starts and in a blink of an eye, it’s Monday. And now the calendar tells me it’s Thursday. The first half of this week was finals craze with late night studying and occasional outings. So much has been going on and now that finals are over, I can finally sit down and blog. Oh joy.

Monday was long and eventful. After short finals, first period was spent with name talks. I hate when I see/find a good name for my future kids and then forget it later on. I guess that’s, in a way, a pet peeve of mine. After, Michelle and Joyce started imitating some teachers. I joined in and we all started laughing uncontrollably loud. I bet the whole class was staring at us at one point. Too bad we were too busy with laughing to notice. French was gay, no different from other days. And PE! With Ganske gone, we didn’t have to dress out. So I took countless ugly pictures with Britney and Danny. And more pictures of “Danny Likes Men” posters. Hahaha. The rest of the day went by with its boring tone. After school, I had pho, which is quite surprising, since I NEVER eat that thing. In fact, the very last time I attempted to try that dish took place around Christmas of 2006. And I almost barfed that day: an explanation of why I haven’t had it for two years. Hm, and I had a conversation about how disgusting pho is just last weekend. But what a little hypocrite I can be. It turns out those noodles aren’t as bad as I thought. Not terrific, but alriggght. Just alright for now. Ha. After, my mom took me to my hair done! Yay! Finaaallly. Only it wasn’t much, just trimming and shorter bangs. But stopping at the hair salon always manages to improve my mood. And ice cream is always a nice after-treat. Yumm.

Yesterday was hellaa chill with easy finals and a trip to Valley Fair. Total Fitness – me, Danny and Britney, took more dumbass pictures with our ghetto phones and danced to I-pod music. After brunch, I went to feed myself with Wahoo’s I’ve been craving lately. In high heels and newly painted red toes for the interview. But! The place was closed when I arrived there with Brian and Sarah. But the wait was worthy; those quesadillas were deliciaaaous. Then Core final happened - the dreaded interview. The last minutes were nerve wrecking and I couldn’t sit still. Despite all the pre-interview jitters, however, it went fantastically great. At lunchtime, Maria and I took the bus to Valley Fair. It felt so strange to go shopping through public transportation on a school day. Yet, I enjoyed the freedom. Our first stop was A&F since Maria needed flip flops to save her feet from being murdered by her killer heels. I haven’t shopped at the place for months, but I ended up getting a pair of soft sweatpants for myself. Oh, and Aritzia! Whatta chic and friendly store. Discovery of interesting places is one of those things that make my day. And Aritzia was definitely one of those. I just hate that now is that bothersome season where pricey spring clothes appear everywhere in the still-chilly weather.

After food and all the good stuff, our last stop was Sephora where we can spend hours playing with makeup and spraying perfumes. Which we did, of course. When we got in to the bus to go home, I thought the day would end on a good note. Until Maria realized we were headed to Alum Rock, not our homes. We hella panicked and got off the bus, handed free day passes from the generous driver. But those passes were useless cus all the other bus stops were “deleted.” Then a horrible thought swept our minds: We are fucking lost. We walked around everywhere for like 20 minutes until Maria decided to call her brother to find us. And we killed time taking “WE ARE LOST” video and pictures. Sadly, when her brother came, we realized we were only two blocks away from Valley Fair =O Such a hilarious day with a twist.

Whaatta nice way to end finals today. I didn’t arrive at school until 10:20 for Chem finals. For some reason, Kinkade let all of us out hella early so I had few minutes to spare before I headed to lunch. Wahooo’s again! Yipeee. Almost went to Fresh Choice for fundraiser and poker with some of the guys, but Maria and I decided we want quality food. Strangely, my lazy self disappeared today and I didn’t mind walking all the way to Wahoo’s. I guess I was too ecstatic that finals were over and all. Well, lunch was fun. We talked about code names and Maria peeled off a sticker that she claimed to be hers. Haha. Thank God no one caught her. With our full tummies, we went to the asian store across the street for more food. I got a bag of mango jelly things for me and finished the whole bag within 20 minutes. Stopped by Jo Ann after to check out the fabrics and stuff. Reminder: Convince Mom to get me a sewing machine.

Well, no school for four days! And no homework to pester me on Sunday night. Jusss good movies and bonding time for me this weekend! Hurrrah.
