Today's the BIG DAY (:

Basically today is Graduation. In about 12 hours, I will be a high school graduate. YAY! I can't believe it, but we did it. We survived high school! I'll get back onto the graduating subject in a bit. I would like to update and possibly pour out my feelings. Last Saturday, I went to my niece's one month celebration. I basically hung out with the A+ girls and guys & played with my nephew and rocked the niece to sleep. We ate lots and lots of really good food. We watched "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." That movie is very interesting, but the couple has too much sex. On Sunday, we had our Baccalaureate ceremony along with our panaromic picture that I forgot to order ): After the ceremony, I took a few pictures and headed out to temple for a visit. They all questioned my attire because I was in a dress. I headed out to CSULA after temple to take my math placement test, and my goodness, I got LOST on the way there. That's freakin' SAD ): After the test, I went to go grub with Jamador at Vietnam Kitchen. Their spring rolls were delicious! Yummy! I watched UP that day, too. It's such a cute movie!!! On Monday, we had graduation practice and I lost my ticket because I came late. I sit in the 5th row. It was hot and I had allergies from the grass. Practice was extremely boring. Same thing happened on Tuesday. On Tuesday, I was a bit more annoyed because there are really immature girls that dislike me and like to shout out "BITCH" behind my back OUT LOUD but not to my face. It amazes me how they're still able to act like little middle school kids when they're f***ing seniors in high school. Grow the f*** up, already. I'm tired of your middle school bulls***. It also annoys me how people assume that I've done this or that or have said this or that from what people tell them instead of coming to me and asking me themselves. That's just straight out stupid. Never assume because you end up making an ass out of yourself. I want to get away from this stupid high school drama. People seriously need to grow up. Even I need to grow up, but I'm done dealing with this crap. I'm so glad I'm graduating today so I don't have to see any of those stupid faces again or even hear from them. UGH! I'm ready for the college life. I'm ready to socialize and be out there in the world. I'm ready to expand my knowledge a little more and become a way better and bigger(not physically) person. I have a good feeling that tonight's going to be amazing. I just want to take the time to tell all of my friends how much I appreciate them for always being there for me and listening to my stupid dramatic stories and all that. I thank them for sticking around through the thick and thin. I want to thank them for showing me a different meaning to life and always opening my eyes and heart to a new perspective. I honestly don't know how else I can show my appreciation. Losing certain friends also opened my eyes. It's about equality, not quantity. I'm going to miss each and every single one of you differently. It's been an amazing, crazy, hot tranny mess of 4 years that we've shared. Thanks for being part of those memories.

Amazing Day

Hello (: I'm in such a wonderful mood today. Well, it's more of a happy mood from the day before. There's not really much to say about last weekend. On Saturday, June 6th, I believe I stayed home for the first time in so many weekends. HAHAHA. Sunday was pretty fun. I went to chill with the cousins' and roamed the mall for funzies. Then I started counting down to the days until seniors officially check out of school. I still had work to do in first period. I made up all the work in time and I sure hope I passed that final with an "A". In second period, we sang as usual, but had the returners sing on their own for us seniors to listen. We didn't do anything in third period. We only watched videos, used the computers, and played Taboo. Fourth period was boring as usual. We had to get ready for our show and tell final. I made a collage of New York for my final presentation that I had to say in Spanish for 30 seconds or more. In 5th period, we did our "This I Believe" essays/speeches. Man, majority of the females in the class teared up as they read their "This I Believe" speeches. It really opened up my eyes to a new side that I saw of them that I have never ever seen. It really amazes me how strong these girls and guys with their physical ability to not show their mental weakness. Lots of those speeches really did get to me and I also shared my tears with them. Senior check-out day made me really sad. We were all signing each other's yearbooks. Mr. Whisler sang the song he always sings to the seniors and it made me cry to the point where I had a headache the whole day. I forgot to drop off my yearbook for my counselor to sign ): I need more pages for people to write in. We should have insert pages. Friday was the first day we came to school as non-students. It was extremely boring at Baccalaureate practice. After the practice, Hieu dropped me off at Josh's house so I could wake his ass up to make him get ready to go see people at Gabrielino. I napped for a bit while he was in the shower. Then we drove off to San Gabriel. I haven't seen the side I used to live on in forever! It felt so nice seeing everything from back when I lived there. As soon as we got to campus, the first person I saw was Miranda (: I haven't seen her since the football game. FYI, I haven't seen THESE kids in 10 freakin' years. 10 YEARS, dude! That's a long time! After that, I saw Emilia, Katie, Juliana, Gianna, Sean, and Conrad. Gianna didn't remember Josh and I. Bummer! Afterwards, I saw Allison. I still have a picture of her and I back in kindergarten when we went on this one farm trip. We tried seeing if Jessica Stewart remembered us, but that failed. We saw Bianca and Kimberly. Kimberly doesn't remember us at all. Josh wanted to see Anthony Cruz, so we went to see him, and DAMN he looks good! =X We saw Andrew, Natalie, Efren, Derek, Danny Dang, Danny Van and Tanya afterwards. We caught up with a bunch of memories from kindergarten up until like 2nd grade I think, because that's when I left Wilson. It amazes me how I can remember their faces so well along with the childhood memories I had there. I feel like I have accomplished something that I would so do before I died. It made me really miss Tyler, too. RIP. Aaron had left to Alabama for Speech Nationals or something like that. Now we're going to plan this whole reunion dinner and such so that we can really all catch up before we totally party ways. I've really missed all of them. After this, we headed back to Josh's house and watched Big Fish. He napped while I was watching it. I didn't get to finish the movie. ): Then we went to his little sister's graduation. I thought it was pretty cute what each student had to do. Interesting school, I'll tell you. After, I headed out to the A Cappella party. I ate like a fatty. I signed yearbooks. I made people sign mine. I jumped in the jumper. I got my award. I took a bunch of pictures. I hugged and sang with the group for the last time. ): *teartear. We watched our Spring Concert DVD (: Awesomeness, I tell you. Now I'm at home getting ready to seeeeep! T00DLES!

The Countdown BEGINS (:

Hello blog readers! I'm sitting in AP Gov kicking back in a way. There's some kids playing some game and most of us are on the computers. I believe it's time to update (: I just performed in my last Spring Choir Concert a few weeks ago. On May 28, 2009 ): The day before was our assemblies. They showed our video of A Cappella singing at the Knicks' game in New York. AMAZEBALLS! Hahaha. On the day of the concert, I had my hair curled and pinned up so that later that night, my hair would stay curled. I helped David and some other kids paint the "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" backdrop during 6th period. We also helped set up the risers and shells, too. We decorated the stage with silver streamers and lights. Then I had my mom drop off my pearl necklace and sunglasses for the Lionettes' dance after school. Practice for A Cappella was at 3:45pm. The stage was so HOT! I wanted to go get food, but I had no car because mother didn't want to lend me the van ): I went with Teddy to go get Art's but then I had to drive back to practice with Madrigals -__- Mike ended up getting me two tacos. YUMMAYYYYY. I stayed in the dressing room with the girls so we can get ready for the performance. I had Jocelyn do my make-up since Lionettes were up first. I had to leave my dress to dance in for Lionettes on stage because we had no time to run back and get dressed after the Madrigals second performance. I messed up in each dance HAHAHA. I loved dancing for A Cappella. We went all out that night and it was pretty awesome. I got to see Jamador after the dance (: We didn't hang out enough, but I texted him until I fell asleep at home. We went to BJ's afterwards and I was a bit annoyed due to some reservation problems. We all sat down and some of them left because they were going to charge for an extra table or whatever, but I didn't care; you either stay and eat or you just leave; FUCK the drama. I had a blast at dinner though<3>
[continued June 11, 2009]
After the video project was over, I had an emergency call and I had to go pick up someone. Afterwards, I left to go hang out with Josh at his house. I have no clue what we did. I think we napped, ate sticky rice, drink boba, watched movies, and played cards all day. Then I had to prepare for Senior Boards. I was sooooo nervous, it's not even funny. I had to practice my speech with the english class. It was so nerve wrecking. I kept going over 5 minutes. I had too much information on my card. I had to rewrite my card over like 5 times. Then the day of the boards actually came. We all had to dress up as if we were going in for a corporate interview. My appointment time was at 8:43. I was so nervous because I had Mr. Hernandez on the panel and we had debates in his class and it did not go so well when I had to go up. Anyway, I had 3 other people along with Mr. Hernandez on the panel. I had the school nurse, one of the people who work at the district office, and an alumni from last year. I think I talked under 5 minutes and 30 seconds. I'm not sure, I have to look at my score sheet again. Senior boards were finally over. I had to present after school at the open house to underclassmen and other seniors. The dinner wasn't so great. I got a 93 on my presentation (: AWESOME. The next day was our last renaissance assembly of the year! Wendy and Aimara made me a cute shirt TEEHEEHEE (: THe first assembly went by well and so did the second one. I liked drumline's performance THE BEST (: It was AMAZEBALLS. I didn't go to third period at all. Fourth period, there was nothing to do. 5th period, I don't remember hahahaha. After school, I went home to get ready for Aloha. I went over to Josh's to talk things out with some stupid things that had happened during that week. Everything went well. I went to go get Yogurtland afterwards and headed back to school for the dance. The line was long ): Some kids were drunk, buzzed, high, and rolling and it really annoyed me. The dance was really hot and it smelled, but I had fun. I had a headache so I left early. Josh gave me tylenol and I napped. I went to Denny's with some of the kids to eat (: I had the sampler. It was mmmmmmmmm delicious. I'm lazy. I'll update later.
