   I'm back
I've been quite lazy recently. I've been quite sleepy these past few days. I dunno why. 8 hours of sleep aren't enough anymore. I still feel tired and all that. I'm not always like this. I dunno why I'm always feeling tired and sleepy. Blah...I think that I'm finally catching up in my sleep coz I didn't really get any when school was in.

Christmas is just next Sunday and I haven't even done my Christmas shopping. To tell the truth, I'm not into the Christmas spirit this year...T_T....

So far I haven't gotten sick with the cold this year. I'm usually sick this time of year and I'm glad that I haven't gotten sick so far. Hahaha! Me don't like getting sick... =P

I don't have much to say...

Later!

   Thank you Yuna2004


I got this card from my buddy Yuna2004. Thank you, Yuna!!!

I feel bad not being able to make holiday cards for everyone here. I lack the computer program to do them. I hope that next year I'll be able to afford one ^_^!

Well here is the Dragonbll Z pics I promised to show. They're from the real action movie:



Hahahaha!!



Goku and his typical "flying-to-save-the-world" pose.



That's supposed to be Goku's grandpa...O.o...Doesn't look like him. Goku's asking him if he can teach him how to play billiards.



And that's supposed to be Bulma...weird, but ooookkkk...



Those are the evil characters. Um...don't they look rather ridiculous? They remind me of the evil ones on Power Rangers. Hahaha!!



This Oolong doesn't look like Oolong. This one looks like Mr. Popo =P



The actual Oolong.



The actual Mr.Popo...




Yamcha doesn't look like a Yamcha...haha...



Goku on the Nimbus cloud...ROFL!!!!!



Haha...this looks more convincing.



Anywayyyy....enough of that.


*Friday*

Typical day. Woke up late. It was cold. Had breakfast. Played video games all day. Around 4:00 pm, went to pick up my lil bro from school. At 6:30 pm, my mom and I went with a neighbor of ours (my sister-in-law's grandma actually) to a Posada. It was fun but very cold. We were invited to another one tonight. It's gonna be fun. Yay!

I guess that's all for now...

Later!

   Yay!
*Thursday*


Went to the mall on the bus. Bought something @ Sanrio. Paid my cell phone bill. Couldn't believe how much I owed O.O (it wasn't that bad). Saw a "Scarface" poster (the scene where Tony Montana goes "SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!!" and all those Cubans are blown away from the door). Just then remembered how similar GTA: Vice City is to Scarface. Came back to town on an Express bus (yay!). Went to my Lil bro's band potluck. hEHEHE....I saw my old friend Fernando!!!!! He's always calling me "sexy" =P...He's so awesome. I missed him...We kinda talked and then he began talking about his Hilary Duff experience. Apparently, he was at some dance event in LA and there were celebs leading it. Some people were chosen to go up stage and meet the stars. He was one of the ppl selected. He said that he went up stage and was in line for something when someone bumped into him from behind and he was pushed forward, eventually hitting Hilary Duff and she getting hit against some rail. He said "sorry" to her and she just looked at him. Haha...and then he said that she acted like a total b***h. The way she talked and acted was like a total "b" word. That's what he said! Hahaha!


Here she is...

Has anyone heard about the DBZ action movie? Real actors, fake effects... click here for the cheesy pics.

***ummm...if the link doesn't work for you, I'll post the cheesy pics here tomorrow. They're FUNNY!!!!***


L8TER!!!

~Wednesday*~

Woke up at 6:20 am to get ready to go to school for my 8:00 am Bio final. I'm NOT a morning person so I was kinda "ugh" in the morning. Very sleepy since I went to sleep at 1 am the night before. Anyway, drove like 25 minutes to school, got there, it was very cold. Like 42 degrees cold. Luckily, I had a big sweater hoodie and a beanie on. Haha! Got to class at 7:40 am. Good thing I got there early coz after I arrived more kids began to show up and some didn't even get to sit on their own desks. Some kids that I never saw since the 1st day, showed up today O.o. Weird. The final was in two parts: short answer and multiple choice.....

IT WAS HELL!!!!!!!!

Gaa!! I knew some of stuff in the test but I always suck on the short answer ones. Boo. I think I did ok on the multiple choice, but the short answers were KILLER bad. Very bad. Like...Runaway and hide bad. I think most kids had problems with the short answers coz it was the talk after the final. Anyway...that's an experience I want to forget.

So after the lame final, I stuck around til 12:30 pm coz it was when I had to turn in my English paper final thing to my Prof.'s box. She was gonna come by at that time to pick them up. I hope I get a good grade on it. I worked my @$$ off on it. lol... She had us attach a business sized envelope to it incase we wanted it back during winter break.

I stuck around school some more and then went home around 2:20 pm...

~Plans*~

Winter Break is a real vacation. No homework, like in high school. In high school, they give you stuff to do over winter break. Not anymore!! I finally get to see my old high school buddies again!! I have friends coming over from CSUN, UCD, and UCSB. Woot woot! I miss them so much =D We haven't really hung out since school started. lol!! Yeah, we're gonna meet up again and hang out over winter break, so that will be awesome. I might get around buying some manga or book to read over winter break. I really get into books =P. I know...I'm a bookworm
-.-


You are a peaceful sleeper. You recognize that
sleep is a necessary part of life, and
understand that there is no way for you to
fully appreciate everything around you if you
dont give yourself a break once in a while.
You are a very calm and collected person who
seems to have all of their ducks in a row, so
to speak. You enjoy life without getting
over-enthusiastic and appreciate harmony in all
things.

   So Say Goodnight to the Bad Guy!!
*~~December 8th, early dawn hours~~*

Ok...so it was like 12:30 am, early Thursday, and I was beginning to doze off to sleep when like about 6 police cars ZOOMED by my street with their loud sirens! I thought there had been some kind of late night car accident at the intersection by the end of my street since that darn ol' intersection always has accidents. I tried to go back to sleep again but I could still hear their sirens going around my neighborhood and so obviously I had to be awaken again like 5 minutes later. I went to take a peek at from my window into the street when the same police cars came around again. Haha! It turns out they were chasing this guy in this fancy white car all over my neighborhood. He had about 5 police cars, two of those white cars that seize narcotics, chasing after him. That's when I realized that the thug had drugs in his possession. The bad guy wasn't even traveling that fast. He was just teasing them or something. The police had lights shining on him from behind and you could see him talking on his cell phone. He was prolly getting some advice from his fellow bad guy friends or something on how to ditch the police or something. In the end, they popped his tires and the guy kept on going until he finally stopped in front of my neighbor's house. The K-9 units where there and the police shouted at him to come out of the car but he wouldn't. After 20 minutes, he did ^0^.

Oh yeah, that same night I had a dream! O.O It was more of a nightmarish kinda dream. It was a about a big earthquake in So. Cal O.O Scary stuff...

Anyway, the rest of Thursday was spent on studying for my Bio midterm. Next week I have a final for that class -_-.

Right now I'm in my Frosh Seminar class. We're having a party and since the class has computers, everyone is on the internet =P.

Glad it's Friday at last =D I'd be happier if it was next week's Friday.

Later!

Well I got meet up with Chuy Trevino yesterday. Hehe...he is the ACTUAL director of all those shows I mentioned in my last post. He was a very kewl and interesting guy to talk to. Very V.I.P =D He talked about the Chicano civil rights movement and how he was involved in it during the Vietnam War era in the 1970s. He's also written many books about Chicanos and about his experiences growing up in East LA as a Chicano. He talked about a lot of stuff and experiences that I could relate too.

   That's taken care of...
For my Political Science class we had to find a guest speaker to talk about civil rights. My group leader ended up having good connections with Jesus Salvador Trevino, also known as a writer/director whose television directing credits include NYPD BLUE, THIRD WATCH, ER, THE PRACTICE, CHICAGO HOPE, DAWSON'S CREEK, NEW YORK UNDERCOVER, THE PRETENDER, NASH BRIDGES, MARTIAL LAW, BRIMSTONE, SEAQUEST, STAR TREK: VOYAGER, BABYLON FIVE, STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE, SWEET JUSTICE, SPACE: ABOVE AND BEYOND, THE BURNING ZONE and HAWKEYE.

He is also an activist promoting Chicano rights and has done many documentaries profiling the civil right movements during the 1960s until today.

He's gonna have a discussion with my class. Yay!

Our group was kinda stressing in finding someone who had connections to civil right movements. Miraculouslu (sp?) she knew him and was available to come today (Wednesday).
