my crazy dad
and so i was going to church today (during the oakland vs tennessee game)...and i told my dad that i was leaving and will catch the last part of the game when i got back. as i was leaving...he asked me why i have become so church oriented (he hasn't gone to church in years). i said that i just want to go. he then says "i think you're meeting someone over there" as if i were going out on a date. i just asked him what kind of a date would going to church be? he changed the subject, and said "it's good that you're going." i just left after that. as i walked to my car, i couldnt help but laugh at what my dad said. like i said...crazy dad. stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =)

dave and buster's
yeah...u heard it here first, i am no longer a Dave and Buster's virgin. i went there last night with Gee, Alfred, Christian, and Mark Ejanda...my morse high 99er friends. i had called gee up at around 8pm, and she was just chillin w/ alfred in the parking lot at their work. we decided to meet up, and go to DnB's...so they told me to meet em at their work. so i drove over there and saw them just chillin there. they had been there for 2 hours by the time i got there. we just chilled there for awhile, just looking at my pictures, and talking. we were waiting for others to join us there. Nem showed up, and they decided to go inside so nem could relieve her bladder. meanwhile, alfred and i just chilled in the parking lot and talked. while we were waiting, gee's stalker came out, and got into his car and started staring at us (prolly wondering why we were chillin by gee's car). he was there for quite awhile, pretending to be on the cell phone, but really just staring us down. after awhile, he left and we continued our conversation...until gee's object of desire showed up to work(ask her for his name...cuz i dunno if i can share here). gee chickened out in talking to him...so she and nem came back out to the parking lot. by that time, christian had showed up. after deciding what our strategy for the night was...we finally headed off to Friday's in Mission Valley to eat before going to DnB. Mark n Chelle joined us there to eat after mark got off work. we laughed, ate, and were merry (especially gee...who was having textual intercourse w/ her dude the whole time). after eating...we said our goodbyes to nem (who was too young to go to DnB), and chelle (who was tired) and headed to DnB. i had never been there...but it was really fun there...almost like a chuck e. cheese's for adults. i pretty much played the ticket games, which were pretty cool. i saw a few other friends there enjoying themselves. all in all, i had a pretty good night. kept my mind off of things that were kinda bothering me. i shall return to DnB's...anybody wanna come? stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =)

something i noticed
i have talked very highly of the summer bridge program many times in my blogs and to people that i come across both on and off campus. i talk about the great relationships that i built while i was a student in the program, and the fun memories that we shared during that month in 1999 at argo hall in ucsd. even the summer bridge pride that i carried on throughout my first 2 years at ucsd were expressed because of the great experiences that i had. but something that i have noticed over the past couple of years is that i have grown distant from many of the my summer bridge friends that i made during that summer before my first year. and after thinking about it a little further, i begin to wonder whether or not i was fully included among the groups that formed from bridge. as recently as this past friday, i was at a birthday party for Christine Lucero (who didnt go to summer bridge), there were a lot of people there who went to my bridge. i noticed that many of the people who hung out together during and after bridge, were still hanging out with each other. they were dancing, and having a good time together. i even saw some people that i hung out with, hanging out with other people...or chillin with others who i was close with during the program. it got me thinking...why don't i hang out with them anymore? why arent the bonds that i formed with these people just 3 1/2 years ago, not as strong as they once were? why don't i talk to my suitemates anymore? why are other peoples bonds that were formed at the same time mine were, still there? i used to think that i would be close with all of these people because we had summer bridge love for each other...and the summer bridge pride was really flowing during my first couple of years. but now...i feel like i have drifted away from many of these people. i mean, there are a few who i still talk to, and still chill with (you know who u are), and we all still have summer bridge '99 pride and love...but i'm disappointed that my bonds with almost everybody else has weakened to passing familiarity. maybe it's cuz i was a commuter for all 4 years i've gone to ucsd, and the others had easy access to each other since they lived close to each other on campus...maybe it's cuz we just grew apart. i dunno what happened. if i could turn back time to my first year here at ucsd...i would have tried to maintain those bonds that i formed during bridge, and made myself more accessible to those who i had relationships with. time is running out at ucsd for the graduated high school class of 1999, since about half are graduating in june, and the rest of us have up to a year left here...i will still remain true to the spirit of SB '99...let's see how things turn out with them '99ers. stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =/

watching...
macgyver on nick's tv land. i havent seen that show in forever. that guy can make a bomb outta gum and toothpicks! i wish i could do that, then...hmm...i dunno what i would blow up...maybe my books from school. but then again, i spend so much on those books...so scratch that idea...maybe my old notebooks. speaking of school...1st day of school for me is tomorrow...today was the 1st day of school for everybody else...but i dont have mon/weds/fri classes...so i just chilled today and ran a few errands. i got me some new speakers for my computer, since my old one were annoying me too much. ah well...back to macgyver. stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =)

the end of winter break
and so, the end to another christmas break has come. UCSD starts again tomorrow. my AIM buddy list is once again full of people who have returned to san diego to go back to school. college life is once again back. yay...time to study =/ im gonna miss just sitting around and not doing anything but stare at the computer or the tv...or just sleeping in. this quarter is the worst...cuz there isnt much of a vacation waiting at the end...just 1 week for spring break, and then back to school. ah well...i'll make the most of this quarter.

upcoming events
-pcc tryouts
-apaac @ uci
-apsa talent show
-other various events

well i should be pretty busy this quarter, especialy since i still have to deal with class. i'm enrolled in 4 classes for 14 units...but i'm trying to add another one...so that will bring my total up to 18 units. i'm also still looking for a job...so if i get one, add work to my busy schedule. let's hope i survive this quarter...cuz i have 1 more after this one til summer comes. i'm supposed to be graduated in june...but i'm staying another year so i can take my time, and not stress too much. but i can now truthfully say that i'm graduating NEXT YEAR stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =)

random babble
i've rediscovered how cool the later TGIF shows are/were. thanks to the magic of the disney channel, i'm able to enjoy the entertaining qualities of Boy Meets World and Sister, Sister. i think i didnt see too many episodes towards the last years that they were on, prolly cuz they were on during the latter years of my high school life...when i was really busy with yearbook, asb, and class council, as well as with friends. right now i'm watching the christmas episode of Boy Meets World from their first year of college, where mr feeny plays the ghost of christmas future, and past. ahh...the memories. merry christmas eve!!! stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =)

jury duty
so i had jury duty for the past 2 days. i got assigned to a case, so i had to come back for an extra day. the judge that i had was the same judge who did the Westerfield case (that little girl named Danielle Van Dam, who got killed), Judge Mudd. i didn't wanna get assigned...but i did, which sucked at first cuz it took up part of my winter break, but it ended up being kinda fun. i wouldn't do it again right away, but it was an interesting experience. funny thing was that 1 of the jurors was in summer bridge 2001 when i was a resource counselor, and another juror was a professor that i had 2 years ago...so at least i knew some people. well, now that i'm done w/ jury duty...my winter break can start once again. NO MORE JURY DUTY FOR ME FOR 3 YEARS!!! stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =)

i got...
jury duty at 745 am...which is in about 3 1/2 hours from now...why am i awake? maybe it's cuz i'm nocturnal, and i cant go to sleep before 4am anymore...i mean, i did go to sleep at about 2...but after trying to sleep for an hour and a half, i got up and got on the computer. maybe it's also cuz i got something on my mind. i guess, i need some resolution with some people, and its driving me crazy. 1 is with a good friend of mine, 1 is with someone that just met and i'm trying to get to know (actually, i dunno if there is a problem with this person...it's just me worrying...prolly bout nothing). but at any rate, i just hate it when i got things on my mind...it throws me completely off. i'm pretty sure that things will work out in the end...i will take action, cuz it's the holiday season, i dont need any drama hanging over my head. i'm just gonna quit blogging about it...and take some action to resolve things...and quit worrying. ah well...i'm gonna try to get some sleep so i can do my civic responsibility, and report to jury duty. tata for now...stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =/

edit ok...so the drama with the other person was just me worrying bout nothing...so i'm good there =þ

finals
finals has shown its ugly face again...so i think it's appropriate for me to post these levels of stress anxiety that i got from my friend Steph (who is now back in daygo after a year long stay abroad in new zealand.)

Levels of finals anxiety...by Stephanie Aguon
level 1-"ha..i have finals"
level 2-"hmm...i should study..."
level 3-"they're not gonna be that bad..."
level 4-"shit, I have finals"
level 5-"I'm gonna get crapped on!"

i think i'm between level 1 and 2...i wish my finals were earlier in the week, instead of thurs and fri...cuz ive been feeling ok about these finals, but now that it's so late in the week, im likely to procrastinate, which i have been doing a lot of. only 2 finals to study for too...ethnic studies on thurs, and human sexuality on fri...so not too bad. also if it were earlier in the week, i would be done w/ em, and my winter break will start early. oh well...i guess i just have to wait til the end of the week to take em. stay tuned...we'll be back after these messages =)
