didn't feel like writing, but i DID feel like updating. so here's an update from my sexy boyfriend...
Thanksgiving Day
OMG I had to work this morning at best buy and let me tell you... people were fighting, pushing - everything you can think of - just to get into the store. I think 1000+ people came in. It was crazy! I started work at 4am and finished my shift at 12. I got home, went to sleep, woke up, and felt like crap. I ended up going online for the rest of the day. I WAS SOOOO BORED and I ended up going back to sleep.
I woke up today feeling good because I knew that I was gonna see my wonderful and sexy and GORGEOUS Girlfriend! It sucks, though, cause I gave her my cold(play). hehe. so she's feeling like SHAT BALLS. Anyways, my cousins
came down from the Sac Town. We met up with them at my Grandma's house, had some food, did a little gossip (you know how we roll). I could tell Miss Angela wanted to go out so we went to Santana Row. Decieded to stop by Best Buy because I remembered she wanted some movies. I bought her My Father The Hero. We bought her brother Detroit Rock City. And uhhh I bought The Starting Line acoustic album and Coming To America. After that, we took a little drive back to my house cause Angela had to go back home. ummmm that's about it.... I just wanted to let people know Angela is the tightest girlfriend ever! I mean this chick makes me feel soooooo goddamn good, it's just toooo crazy...I don't know what I would do if I wasn't with this girl!! ANGELA I LOVE YOU SOOOO MUCH! I think you're amazing!
wait why am I posting?

best day out of the entire year!
happy fatty day!! omg, i had SOOOOOOO much to eat today! i was able to sleep in till around noon time, and right when i woke up, my parents were ready to eat a good thanksgiving lunch. after spending time with mi familia, i went to johnny's to spend time with him and his family. and i ended up eating AGAIN over there. we had a fun time watching football and just chillin. i love johnny's family. they're all so sweet and i always find myself having a good time when i'm around them. awww... and i love my boyfriend for being the greatest boyfriend ever!!! ahhh yeah! when i got home, my family and i headed to my aunt's house in the hills for MORE grubbin. DAMN. talk about goood eatin! i swear i had something from every dish. i even had lobster... ON THANKSGIVING! haha. i'm actually excited for the left-overs. my brothers and i played monopoly for the first time EVER. for real. we used to have monopoly when i was younger, but for some reason the three of us never played it. i always ended up playing by myself or with my dad. i had tons of fun. there were all these little babies running around my auntie's house, which really got me excited. for some reason, a grand piano attracts the eyes of little kiddies. when i was on it, two little ones came to me and started banging on the keys. hahaha gotta love 'em!
after my auntie's, i met up with mio, benny, and the gang for a late night movie. we watched 'bad santa.' FUNNNNY movie. good, kinda sad. i liked it. after the movie, mio and i stopped by benny's because she wanted to say hi to his parents. we chilled there for a little while benny showed us old school pictures of him and his brothers. fun fun. unfortunately, there was no pink stuff, but i had some fruit salad stuff that was ALMOST as good. haha. anyway, mio dropped me off and here i be. feeling fatter than ever, and tired as hell. good night and i hope your thanksgiving was as good and as FAT as mine!
saturday.november.22.2003
thank you for the help that i like it. i am proud to be a true fatty!
geez. been a long time since i've updated. unfortunately, i don't have the memory capacity to remember everything that has happened since my last update. i've just been so busy with school that it has left me with no time to have fun.
today was our last field show for marching band. so sad. we lost to tulsa by two points, but the game was definitely an entertaining one. for some reason, the entire pit, minus aux man steve, was going crazy! i can't decide it it was the sun or the food from wendy's that turned us into complete nuts! i'm sure it was just a combo of both. the colleenanator and i went to grab more food for 99 cents at the taqueria by johnny's. damn. we loaded up on FOOD today. her car is no longer ross - it's THE FATTY MOBILE! haha.
geez, i can't believe how fast this season flew by! i guess i was just having too much fun. heh. i'm actually really excited for this season's concert and the banquet! i'm actually helping out with the banquet too, so i'm sure that's gonna be a blast. it'll be nice to get dressed up for something again. i remember last year's banquet was way fun to get ready for... AND i had my way hot boyfriend by my side!
well for some reason, i've been stressed lately. i think i've just been analyzing everything in my life and i'm going crazy trying to fix all the problems. well, i'm starting to break out again. i hate it! i absolutely hate how my emotions and my body work together. whenever i'm feeling stressed, worried, upset, or whatever... my body reacts by giving me a few pimples, or a tummy ache, or a headache. in the most extreme cases, my heart feels it. i feel this like... weird pain in my chest, as if my heart forgot to beat or something. i've actually been feeling the heart one every now and then. ack! i swear i'm gonna tear my body apart before the age of thirty!!
i saw the early november thursday night in the oak-town and they were freakin TIGHT!!! the other bands were pretty tight too. i think i really liked that band copeland. haha. once again, my memory is horrible. but my sweet honey pie bought me a shirt and a poster. and he helped me get all the guys' signatures. so now it hangs on my wall along with signed audio karate and signed starting line. hehe. i feel so spoiled. i swear, my boyfriend totally spoils me. i feel bad sometimes that i can't get him the things he wants because i'm poor. damn i need a job. i try my best to repay him with love. ohhh yeah. now that's what i'm talking about. *wink wink*
looks like it's time to do the laundry. yayee. plus, i need to get my mind off of things. ahh, gotta love those fresh, clean clothes straight out of the dryer! hot hot hot!
ps. fats, i love you forever and ever and ever! you can be my snookums bookums any time you want! xoxo!

paper towels=trees
what an amazing day! johnny and i travelled to monterey to visit the marine life! we found parking after driving around forever. grabbed some GOOOD grub at bubba gumps. it was so cute... there was a seagull totally sitting with us for lunch. i fed him a few shrimp from my plate and he totally gobbled it down. it was cute because he knew exactly when we were going to leave. awww fatty seagull. my hunky guy and i went to the aquarium and seriously had a blast! we saw a crazy octopus, fatty tuna, my cuttlefish babies, squishy sea cucumbers, nemo, amazing jellyfishies, and fatty penguins and otters. ahhh.. i love the aquarium. after our fun adventure, we went up and down the street into all the different stores. we went into this one store that had magic trick and prank stuff. there was this crazy ass one with a donut and a plastic roach right under it. SCARY stuff. i got sooooo scared. AND i hate roaches with a passion. anyway, we got back to my hunny's house and ate some pizza and watched family guy again. hahaha. i swear, everyday i'm over, we watch the family guy. it's so great though!
to update you really quickly on my weekend, i went to anaheim for a marching band exhibition at mission viejo. the trip down there was fun. i got josh into liking the prizefight. haha, i bet chubby would be very proud of me! we kicked butt at the high school. poor manny was having the hardest time getting the pit and the trailer to a spot to practice at. EVERYONE and their mom were in our way! i totally wanted manny to hit someone for not moving. there were seriously so many damn high school kids there that no one would've noticed their absence. ugh.. anyway, we got back to the hotel and partied our asses off. mio didn't make it down, which disappointed me. we haven't seen or talked to each other in forever. but i'm sure i'll see her on thanksgiving. there was a lot of chaos, both inside and outside the hotel. a group of us were in search of drummers hiding around outside. then when we headed inside, we had a brawl about pizza and what we had to watch on the tele. there was also chaos when mike met alcohol. ohhh gosh. i had the worst time trying to sleep, in addition, i had a horrible dream. for the rest of the night, i was either getting interrupted from falling back asleep, or just couldn't get to sleep. on sunday, we went to the california adventure land - well outside. took a bunch of wacky pictures. then headed to downtown disney. colleen and i ventured around the whole downtown. played inside sephora. the group of us went to espn zone, while colleen and i fell asleep inside the arcade. we were SOO tired. umm... on the way home, i ended up telling someone off. i heard the guys played football inside mcdonalds. i totally fell asleep. hmmm... and today, i'm still tired.
sorry about all that info in brief. i'm actually getting tired right now. booo school. i'm glad i had today off. i totally needed it!

just keep swimming!
amazingly i'm awake on a thursday morning... and i'm probably going to go to school ON TIME today. eh. school is still school. marching band is marching band. yesterday was funny because somebody and somebody else got into some huge argument and she started crying. bleh. i know, pretty cold-hearted of me to say something like that, but too bad - i don't like her. i really try to get along with people, really i do. and i don't like disliking people, but sometimes it's this weird feeling inside you that you can't ignore. i realized i'm the type of person to really be affected by my emotions. for example, if i'm upset or jealous (which has to be the WORST emotion EVER!), i'll totally feel it inside my body... and i'll end up getting a headache, or start throwing up. something like that. it's really odd. just recently i've been totally feeling unhappy about a lot of stuff. mio and i ended up talking a little about insecurities and how they SUCK. but that was a lot of what i was upset about. and the whole time, my body just felt really torn up. i was always having stomach aches, and i was throwing up. i couldn't even eat. i never understood it. but i'm glad i'm feeling WAY better. now i'm eating like a FATTY again! :) i'm also still learning how to control my emotions better. i think i just had one of those weird emotional break downs. luckily, i had johnny there the entire time. i love my fatty boyfriend!!!!
hmm.. i'm going to anaheim this weekend. we have a gig at mission viejo high school, then we get to PARTY! haha. colleen and i are planning on bringing a duffel bag full of food since:
1)we're both fatties
2)we're POOR fatties
i'm disappointed that our room doesn't have a fridge or a microwave. all it has is a stinkin coffee pot! eh, we can bring cup of noodles! yeah, today i might go fatty shopping with the mom. yay food!
friday.october.31.2003
and the cold weather strikes...
last night was awesome! the boys had a show for this 'fright nite' thing at club rio. i brought my brother abel along with colleen, which was really fun. i dressed up as an asian rice picker, asian hat and all! hahaha. we threw my dad's work clothes on abel, and he was a post office worker for the night. colleen had her clever idea to be a serial (cereal) killer. the boys played really well. the only thing that sucked was the sound. firme played after, which was also awesome since it feels like i haven't seen them in forever. colleen and i hit the dance floor for our first club experience and man... it was quite interesting. now i can really say that the whole club scene is not my thang. booty is EVERYWHERE you turn. bleh. and really nasty guys trying to hit on girls. bleh. luckily, the chica and i were safe - whew!
today was a fun day. went to school only to see that like three people went! so sad. i actually left. went with abel around town to get supplies for his costume. went to band in the freezing cold. i was hoping that we'd get rained out. but according to arlene, scott has a deal with the devil. here it goes: no matter how gloomy and rainy it is when you're driving to practice, there will always be a sunny patch over our rehearsal field. i think it's only been proven wrong twice or something. ack. after practice i headed to johnny's, and we went to dinner at red lobster with his parents. mmmhmm... good food! after that, we went back to the house, and johnny and i ended up watching one episode of the family guy. OHHHHH YEAH! haha. i headed to abel's house and helped him get ready for his costume party. he decided to be the crow this year, so i helped him with his makeup, hair, outfit. fun fun fun. he looks pretty damn scary! haha. i know my mom would be freaked out if she saw her second born looking like that. haha.
well, we have a damn football game hella early tomorrow morning. joy. at least they're gonna feed us something. us fatties need our energy. and then in the evening, i'm torn between what to do. there's a band costume party, but there's also a show in frisco. the boys and sputter doll are playing... but what makes it a little more special is that this is brian (doll)'s last show with sputter doll. so sad. so yeah, no idea what i'm going to do. hohum.

greencard... yellowcard... which one is tighter?
last night was SO much fun! on last minute notice, johnny picked me up from marching band at sjsu, and we went to palo alto for the YELLOWCARD show. yup yup. it was the concert that was a buck and forty-nine cents, courtesy of channel 104.9. TIZIGHT. we got there just in time to see saosin kick some ass on stage. i usually don't dig screaming all that much, but they were tight. best part of the show was when the guitarist jumped off his amp (i think) onto the stage while doing a guitar flip. it was SOOOOOO unbelievable. yellowcard was tight. i was especially excited to see sean the violinist. heck yeah! representing the asians AND the violinists! hahaha. they played their new stuff and some of their old stuff, as well as two of the best songs in the world - according to me. hehehe. anyway, the show was mighty fun, AND my hunky boyfriend bought me a shirt. ahhh yeah.
today i decided not to go to school and spend the day with my wonderful boyfriend. it's been a while since we've had time to ourselves, so we were able to catch up on that. mmmHMMM. good stuff!
thursday.october.23.2003
crack is whack.
wow. i think i have just survived one of the most intense weeks i have had so far this semester. i had a revised essay due tuesday, a photo lecture midterm and a group speech for public speaking on wednesday, and a research paper due today. however, i still have tomorrow with three mounted photos due. but so far, everything else has been kicking the crap out of me. the weekend is going to be just as busy, though. tomorrow night, the boys have a show in frisco. saturday we have an exhibition in gilroy. on sunday, my cousin is throwing a party in fairfield and the boys are playing at the gaslighter. man. so much for relaxing, eh?
i was really urked when i took a long time to write up a detailed update on october seventeenth **my lover's birthday** and it didn't even go through. ahh well...
i was supposed to watch a play at school today with johnny, but we decided to turn around. the play was so expensive too! i mean, it costs less to watch a movie at general admission in the theaters than it does to watch that play going on at my school. johnny and i went to streetlight and valley fair, then back to his house. we watched a newly bought all american rejects dvd. mostly spent some GOOOOOD time together. it was really something we needed. ahh yeah.
sunday.october.05.2003
currently enjoying the best of new order.
let's back track to yesterday:
i went cd shopping with johnny at streetlight and picked up a couple. drove back to his house to chill. his cousin kimmy came over to show us her new convertible. it's sooooooo freakin' cute. we got to cruise around the block in it! great stuff. when i got home, my mom's friends were visiting from hanford. i soon left to take my grandma home, picked up colleen, and headed to the boys' show in fremont. the show didn't have a good turn-out, which sucked. but the guys played really well. we stayed for the next band, karate high school. they were pretty hard, but i felt a groove in there somewhere. i thought they had good effects with their keyboards. after that band, all of us packed up and left to mcdnalds. chomp chomp chomp. i dropped off colleen, then met up with johnny, kevin, ray, bren, and ronnie at johnny's. we then drove to meet with sammy, morgan, and jason at the cement slides at the park. OHHHH MAN! let me just tell you - these slides are SOOOO off the hook! they're curvy and way high. so yeah, the guys thought of sliding down these crazy slides with cardboard or a plastic tray. ohhh man. i was about to pee in my pants the first time i went down because it's such a rush! ahhh... i'm getting all excited talking about it. i did, unfortunately, get myself a nice scratch on my forearm, but it's nothing i can't shake off. i was really glad my night ended with something so great!
woke up at nine in the am and headed to church with abel. chatted with grandpa and the auntie for a little. went to abel's, ate lunch there, bathed his birds, then went to my house. i played with his new laptop. it's so tizight! hahah. i ended up gathering up some cd's we've had collecting dust, picked up josh, and went to streetlight. i tried to sell those back and one of the cd's i bought yesterday. i was only going to get back THREE dollars for a TWELVE dollar cd. i was actually able to trade in two for one cd, though. we then went to rasputin, and i was also offered THREE measley dollars for it. josh recommended we try this cd store by his house. so we went back to sunnyvale and i ended up trading it for another cd. the guy was really kool about it too, which made me feel better. i dropped off josh (by the way, josh has a really cute kitty!), then went to albertson's because mommy sent me to buy bananas. got home, spent time with the family, practiced my violin for a bit, watched a pregnant spider outside build its web, and now i'm here. ack.
wednesday.october.01.2003
three hundred sixty-five days.
happy one year, fatty! yup. the day has come - fatty and i have reached a milestone in our relationship. it's so great. what's kind of funny is that today in my public speaking class, a girl gave a speech about love. she spoke about how she just dated here and there, but after she met the guy of her dreams, she fell madly in love. and she actually said something very true. love is very difficult to describe. i mean, it's such a deep feeling that really there are no words that could describe every single emotion. it was actually really nice to hear that girl's speech, especially today. it was probably like the perfect day for me to hear her speech.
well, i didn't do too much out of the ordinary. went to school. stopped by johnny's for lunch. and he brought me flowers!!! ohhh, they were so beautiful! anyway, i went to the field for a L-O-N-G day of band. i hate days when the band learns drill. it's so pointless for us to be there for the entire rehearsal, especially when we finish running thru stuff - like today. ahh well.. after band, i went back to johnny's for dinner with his parents. mmm. FATTY ALERT! haha. we just chilled with the television on the couch for the rest of the night. it was nice to just chill with my fatty boyfriend.
*I LOVE YOU, JOHNNY!*
monday.september.29.2003
cakes loves fatty forever and ever!!!
my day went pretty well. i started off a little on the rough side - woke up late, bombed my photography lecture quiz, allergies started to kick in a little. but the rest of my day improved. we're doing our life-changing event speech in public speaking, and it was the first group's turn. ohhh man, i almost cried because this girl started speaking about how her grandfather was kidnapped over fourteen years ago, and to this day, they still don't know where he is or what happened. everyone's speech is about death. it's a bit depressing. i mean, i almost feel awkward speaking about music, rather than death. anyway, i went to my honey's house. spent some quality time together and ate a good ol' homemade lunch. he dropped me off at band since it was at state today. band was pretty fun. got some new music that actually makes sense thanks to lane (no thanks to stuart), sight-read with the band, played with the band and drumline. goood stuff. my baby picked me up, we dropped colleen at home, and then i went back to johnny's for dinner. man, i'm a total fatty at johnny's! i'm always getting fed there. in fact, more than at home! aiyah, so sad. well after a really REALLY good dinner, we had some good ol' couch & television time. how great is this? sixteen candles came on! greatest movie ever. not to mention our favorite movie! anyway, it was time to get home and as soon as i did, i had the sudden urge to watch charlotte's web. colleen and i have been going crazy because there's a part in "that's amore!" that sounds like the smorgasbord song in charlotte's web. hehe.
well, like johnny said in my guestbook, our one year is approaching. crazy! it doesn't seem like a year at all. i can't remember a time of my life where i've ever been more happy and satisfied. johnny is the guy of my dreams and i'm so madly in love with him. it's really interesting how love works out. actually, johnny and i were talking about how weird life works out today in the car. there have been so many chances where we would've met each other sooner, like in high school. we knew a bunch of the same people and it's just puzzling how we NEVER even had an introduction to each other. ah well. life is good right now, and even getting better each and every day, and that's all that matters to me.
by the way, johnny showed me this funny ass clip of a janky kid flowin' to some beats. everyone that has sound on their computer - me excluded - peep crispy's new freestyle!
saturday.september.28.2003
like a flower bending in the breeze.
not in one of those peppy moods to update. woke up kinda late and took my car in to alain's to get my tire fixed. i was so tired in the morning because joanne and i headed for a drive to the hills and to townsend to catch up and have some girl talk. *thanks again, jo* i then headed down to kamera korner, picked a few goodies, then drove back home. vaccuumed my poor, dirty car. i had plans to wash it, but i think that's going to be postponed till tomorrow. johnny came by and we went for a long walk downtown, with the occasional stop for me to shoot some film. went back to his house for a little to chill, dropped by guitar center, then he brought me home. i drove my parents downtown to the reception of a wedding they went to earlier in the day. what's really trippy is johnny and i walked by the building the reception was at... and we were admiring the decorations. then johnny says jokingly that it's where my parents are going to be. and coincidentally, it was. i ended up chillin at home with my lazy ass older brother, watched a few movies, then decided it was time to get out. i stayed for a while at victor's to watch some of the boys' set before my parents called me to pick them up. all of what happened after that put me in a really shitty mood. alain sent me to buy him food and a damn soda at jack in the box. i went to the one by great mall and the drive thru line was seriously a thirty minute wait just to get to the order box. i left and drove to the one by johnny's. got my order, left, and realized right when i got to the house that the lady didn't give me change. if it was like a buck, i wouldn't have cared... yeah, i cared cause it was more like FIFTEEN. daddy went back with me and we had to wait in the damn line. got my change and drove back home. alain was fucking SLEEPING when i gave him his food. what a fuck face. sorry for all the vulgar words, but this really ruined my day. ack.
anyway, i await for my lover to 'clal' me. hehehe. hopefully, tomorrow holds much better luck for me.
friday.september.26.2003
pork chop sandwiches!
this is horrible. i've been so busy, especially with school. i can't believe how much school is kicking my ass! it's all good though because i have johnny here to rub it and make it feel nice and GOOOOOOOOOD. ahh yeah.
today could've been a better day, like many others. woke up a little bit more rested than usual. decided to shoot film around the outside of the house, but just as i stepped back inside the house, i realized i needed to jet for school. taking pictures is time consuming! the minutes just fly by. anyway, i got to school and had to deal with my retarded lab classmates. oh geezus. i'm not even interested in describing them because i know i'm just going to get in a bad mood. the lab went by SOOOO slow because we developed film AS A CLASS! i mean, it already takes about an hour to develop film on your own. how much more do you think it takes for EVERYONE to do it together?!? ack.
i headed to johnny's before i went to band. we had a nice homemade lunch together. mmhmm! went to band, and just as i parked, i realized my freakin back tire was flat! i guess i ran over a nail and it punctured my tire. my most incredible boyfriend came to my rescue and fixed it for me! gosh, he's such a sweetheart. the really shitty thing, though, is that band was such a fucking waste today. there were only three of us there (colleen, alexa, and me). we unloaded EVERYTHING which took about an hour. and then scott has the nerve to give us "THE LOOK", more likely due to the fact that we're not working on anything. ugh. after we do get started, lane realizes that this music that good ol' stuart wrote makes no freakin' sense. so the entire band practice, us girls were just talking, chillin, or practicing exercizes. bah. colleen and i had some good talks, too. always fun to throw in a little girl talk here and there.
anyway, throughout the week it's just crazy. i haven't been getting enough sleep, i'm doing my readings for one class in another, falling asleep during lectures, doing homework in class the day it's due... ack! talk about slacking. i just don't think my body can handle all the crazy stunts i used to pull back in high school. damn, high school was nothing BUT bullshitting, sleepless nights, and complete PROCRASTINATION.
well, you all should be proud of me because i'm actually home for once, and online at a decent hour! AND i'm updating. in fact, i'm talking to karen, who i haven't talked to in what feels like forever. she showed me her totally dope hair color. it's purple!!! it looks so great. wheee! i wish i had some balls to do something exciting like that!
