| s'good to be alive. i got my brothers with me holding me down, chillen all day playin 2k8 and shit hahahaha good ass times. lets get to that concert why do people care so much about what i do and what i wear, dizzam if i wanna pull something offhand cuz i just make decisions like that then i will wear a tie on random days. I dont have much else to wear hahahaha its either dressed up or dressed crap for me right now This years lent is teachin me hella about patience. Patience with this hair im growing because if i wasnt then i woulda cut it a long time ago and woulda never gotten to enjoy it like how i am now, patience with ppl at kaiser, waiting in line with people in wheelchairs for hours for their medicine, now you try that! haha, patience and the self discipline im learning this lent to not be so dependent on material things, to learn that you can still be cool without wearing "cool" clothes, to be able to have the same feeling about yourself no matter what you wear! its good to me knowing that this lent has been really life changing, and really im happy for choosing such a hard sacrafice. maybe every year i will give up material things anyways, snow trip is coming up soon. my permit expires pretty soon. planning prom izza bitch. problems, problems, problems. =/ funny how grades arent the least of my concern. what kind of student am i? HAHA | | |
| High school. These are the times of our lives. I got much to worry about. Val-o-grams fundraiser, ordering balloons, helium tank or finding a source of helium, booking a DJ for prom, ordering all that prom stuff...and thats not even counting school. I got a C in bio, a history poster due on monday, 5 sections of history notes.
Lord help me.
It always happens to me. Something i dont calculate into my plans pops up. I really have to start expecting the unexpected. First I take the initiative to head Haunted House with full support of Travis and Doris, whom i trusted that they would help me a lot. Out of nowhere they quit leadership and I'm left out hanging to dry. Haunted House was not a failure, but it was not the best, organizational and planning-wise. I mean what can you expect from someone fresh out of a 14 month hiatus from leadership? Now, Prom is upon us. Guess what happens, Angela is out of leadership due to grades. Im not mad over the situation, im just disappointed in her. No one expected that to happen. It hasnt hit me that she's not in anymore. Probably because she still will be a key part of the juniors even out of leadership, and because she does more shit than most of them anyway.
Life always takes out the support of which i plan upon. I never can guess what's gonna come falling on me next.
I'm really trying to kill myself with all this responsibility, and killer classes. It's not gonna get any easier from here, senior year comes AP everything. HAHAHA.
I find comfort in knowing few people do as much as I do. Michael Jordan was not the best basketball player for his ability to shoot and score alone; he was also a great defender, terrific slam dunker, the best leader, and most driven of all time.Sure, there are people who are smarter than I am, some who are more involved, but few people have the time management to be as active as I am in school and in my community, still maintaining very high grades. I'm not perfect because I forget stuff and dont find time to study as much as I would like-- but hey, I try.
Seeing me on a regular basis, you'd never tell what burdens I have. Its just not shown in my laugh and smile. haha =]

| Watch the wood. That is where I am in my life right now. Just me and my friends, someone on my mind. But at the end of the day, i still got my brothers Alex and Alexis

| Man, today was so freaking informative. Talking to people like that at kaiser, it was so fresh and all these questions about college answered and just listening in on someone else's experience, its just making me so excited. My coordinator is cool, telling me all about her years at Hawaii University and her times in the dorm and meeting new people and all the stuff she went through with friends and all at the same time learning! How freakin cool is that! I just wished i had a tape recorder and i'd listen in on stuff she said that i thought were interesting and such, it just opens your eyes and all your senses that hey, life goes on outside of vallejo, the bay area, past the US, into the world.
Its also fun talking to your own friends about college and your hopes and dreams and aspirations, and working on them together, even though they can be different at times. I'm taking my SAT's this saturday, and its beginning to start to mean more and more to me as the days pass by and as we approach the big day. It's fun immersing yourself with people who are self-driven and are going to be somebody someday, like out there. Knowing they work as hard as you are, trying to get to similar places you strive for. Thank you friends!
It's also just fun to step outside of your comfort range and do things you normally wouldnt do. I think there's been like 3 or 4 instances today where I didnt really have to do much, but i took initiative and did some things i wanted done, and I got alot out off it! I didnt have to volunteer my time working on the Ms. Apache Pageant, I didnt have to check on my PSAT, (which i scored in the 86th percentile among all juniors), and i didnt have to go see my coordinator today, i coulda just sat at the desk for 3 hours and left!
i just dont know, today was cool!
