LIFE

‎"Life is about trusting your feelings, taking chances, losing/finding happiness, learning from the past, and realizing people change."

everyone is different. everyone thinks, acts, and want different things.

only YOU know if YOU want to these different people in your life.

do what you want. be who you are. don't change because someone else says to.

i am me, i do me. you either love it or you hate it.

never ask me to change, because that'd be like asking me not to be real. i'm not a barbie.

i am me, and i'm living my life.

1. "Inception" idea

2. opener for "Raiders of the Lost Ark"

3. how to raise a sunken ship

4. a new molecule

5. Manga

Happy New Year! Welcome 2011!

Happy Happy New Year Everyone!

2011 is gonna be an awesome year!

A new year means new beginnings and a new chapter in all of our life stories! This fresh start brings endless possibilities, so make the most out of it and live, laugh, love! Learn from everything that happened in 2010, and use that to grow as a person to make 2011 even better!

As for me, 2010 definitely had it's ups and downs, but it was also a very fun and memorable year! All those laughs, tears, smiles, kisses, and beautiful faces - old and new - it's time to put those down in the memory books and continue the adventures!

Now it's 2011: new year, new phone, new job, keepin' the new short 'do, and starting this year off with a new view.

[and dont get me wrong, yes there are many new things this year, but i am not forgetting the old: all the friends through thick and thin, all the memories, all the past lessons, theyre all a part of what is going to help me make this year one of the best!]

My goals for this year:

- I'm also going to try to be more open and outgoing this year - not take so many precautions and let the wind take me where it wants. I may be a pretty chill person now, but on the facets of me that aren't, im going to try to let loosen those up a little more.

- i want to try to be healthier this year - mind, body, and soul. organize my room and open my mind to the new and unknown. eat healthier/ be more conscious of what im eating. exercise more. and do the things that make me happy with the people that matter!

My Favorite:

Cheers to a wonderful year ahead!

Recap

i havent blogged in a while so here goes:

10.30 went hiking/ exploring the Sutro Baths area with Jennie and people to celebrate Jennie's birthday. we also had crepes and they were really yummy -- mmm kimchi beef crepe! AND the surprise princess cake that we got for her was delicious!!! Then went to Monsterball @ Club NV for Halloween.

11.6 Pledge Auction for JLCs. memory of the night: my Little K saying "Biggg, save me!!!" when Ben won her and Amy. (but i missed it. lol). Also, my Little M almost dying jumping over chairs to get away from creamed Theo. He said: My thought process was "NOO, New $100 jacket! RUNN!!!" ohhh my little twinsies!

11.12 went to Mango Medley for the auction dinner with Amy, Ben, and Kristin and it was yummy! lots of laughs, good food, and a fun night! and boy are them two slick with the bill! So sneaky!

11.17 went to dinner with my Little and Nancy after studying for a few hours for the pledge final. and then went to Arballo to study some more til the wee hours of the morning.

11.26 BLACK FRIDAY! definitely shopped til i dropped from 4am on. then hung out with Jennie, Becky, and Kim for the day. We got free pie! and then saw cute Bailey and then Jason came for dinner and we played BANG! [i ended up staying up for like 22 hours shopping eating and playing games ... but wasnt that tired until the end.]

11.29 hectic day full of APO stuff. speeches and voting was tonight, but i spent it meeting some AGN brothers and then playing in the hall with the Kristinas. :) ended the long day with some In N Out.

11.30 first ever sporting event: Warriors Game vs Spurs! sadly we lost, but it's okay cause Jeremy Lin played the last 3.34 minutes. :) hehehe and i got my Warriors gear.

12.2 lunched with my dear Connie after not seeing her for a while! Nice little lunch at Okazu Ya followed by some shopping. hahaha Then went to Julian's 'grand opening' for his online job thing with Kathy.

12.9 Grand Little Theo's birthday! went to HH at Chevys with Connie, Mike, PD, Theo, Thuy, and John. and then went to Holy Cow at night. good times with good people!

12.11 went out for dinner for Daddy's birthday! yumm pho! then The Spot to celebrate with Kingsley. (shoulda went home tho, so tireddddd)

12.12 very successful shopping trip downtown with Becky for Christmas gifts. got em all done pretty much! then after being tired out and finished, we went for some Japanese at Okazu Ya. delicious salmon sashimi!

and now we're all caught up. LOL throw in some trips to the Gym, Teaway runs, for some almond milk tea, meetings and stuff and that sums up my life. hahhaha

FINALLY!!!!

Finally absolutely and completely done with everything! i love love love my Co Kristina for being there with me through everything and for being the awesome person that she is! love her to pieces! we definitely had lots of ups and downs but we surpassed them all!

We happily relinquish it all over to the new Advisors: Justin and Shervey! Have fun, but if needed, we are here to help.

Way to end Fall 2010!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Today is the day to be thankful for everything we have, all the people that we love that are in our lives, and be with family and friends!

I am thankful for my loving family, wonderful friends, delicious food, cozy home, and everything that i have been able to do and fortunate to have in life!!!

on track

man i really need to get all my ducks in a row and everything on the right track.

life just sucks sometimes ... why must it all be so darn difficult?!

-___-

all i can give now is focus and determination and what shall come will come.

scratch crack chip snap BROKEN

if you hit it, does it hurt and bruise?

if you push it, does it fall?

if you scratch it, does it come off?

if you bend it, does it break?

if you rip it, does it bleed?

if you keep chipping at the wall, then pretty soon it's going to crack, then it's going to crumble, and then it will fall.

if you keep hurting the person that goes behind the door, one day when you open the door again, they're going to be gone.

Quotes To Live By
