GET ME OUTTA HERE!
it starts simple: opening all the windows and the curtains (mine included) and letting all the sunshine and heat and HEAT into the room all day long (even though when i leave in the morning, i have my window and curtain closed), and turning off the fan even though it's like 80 something degrees in the room at 9 or 10 PM
then she crosses a line: closing my IM boxes
*forgiven*
then it gets annoying: hearing the "blub,blub" water/ocean-sounds on her computer's hibernate mode
then it gets a lil more annoying: not turning off her goddam alarm clock since it goes off every two hours EVERY night! get a simpler sleep pattern, sheesh... I'm the one who wakes up to her alarm, not her... and she leaves the light on, too! a few days ago, it was sooooooo bright in here that i thought i had oversleep or something... NO! IT WAS 3 AM!
...and when i thought i could finally tolerate it all...
she gets annoying: SHUTTING DOWN MY WHOLE COMPUTER because the AIM sounds were bothering her at night (even though i don't shut down hers when her sounds annoy me)
WTF!
am i being unreasonable with being frustrated w/ my living situation? |

things i'd like to change about myself right this instant: btw.. this isn't a deep, self-reflective list either. this is as shallow and freakin self-absorbed i can be at the moment
+ CUT THE HAIR!
ok. it's just too hot right now. it's such a burden and it's not behaving... i can't pull it back into a decent ponytail - not even if my life depended on it. not anymore. it's been trained to be down for the last, idk, 5 months! now it won't comply! COMPLY DAMNIT! (ha, as if it could talk back to me.. woah, what if it could? scary...)
besides it's bad behavior, it's just becoming a nuisance. like, i need to dance with it down... so just humor me, and think about this: hot day + non-stop hip-hop dancing for 5 1/2 minutes w/ lots of head movement (up, down, side to side, roll) + lipgloss + long hair = 1/2 swept & stuck to my face + 1/2 tangled mess. get the picture. i might as well be dancing w/ blindfolds on, cuz that's how i feel at different points in this dance. i try to exaggerate my movements even more to get my damn hair out of my face
plus, who the heck am i trying to impress w/ my hair. no time to think of such things with midterms and trying to figure out what the hell i'm gonna be doing for next sem classes.... yup, save the trying to impress for my last sem of formal education. it seemed to work in HS.
granted, a year and a half ago it was practically down to my ass and only then did i chop off 14 inches to give to Locks of Love... but hey, these are different circumstances--time to let it go...
so how short? i'm open to suggestions...
+ FAKE & BAKE ME!
now for the skin... i hate these damn tan lines... it's so ugly. i still have tan lines from last year's cheer camp @ UC Davis.. that was over a YEAR ago! plus the cheer shell tan lines and the sports bra lines and the swimsuit lines and now.... FLIP FLOP lines! CRAZY!
winter will be here soon (i hope) and i'll be all covered up berkeley style, but the lines will still be there.. only to rear their ugliness next summer along with ever popular, ever frightening freshman 15! YUCK!
+ 9 YEARS OF DENTAL WORK and STILL NO IMPROVEMENT!
yup... i think i'm just gonna have to accept this one. i'll have this trademark gap for the rest of my life. say bye-bye to whatever shot i had to be an "artista" in the Philippines... haha! oh wow. those teeny boppers have PERFECT white teeth... i'm so jealous.
ok... so that's all for now. when i start to pity myself more, i'll continue... till then i've got a paper to write. fun fun....

I Don't Wanna Go On - Innerlude
Verse 1:
Last night, I said some things I didn't mean to say.
Some how I let my pride get in the way,
and I'm so sorry.
(sorry for letting you go)
I know I was wrong, but you just give me one chance,
I'll make it up to you.
Do anything you ask me to...
Chorus:
'Cause I don't wanna go on without you in my life.
I'll make any sacrifice for you,
do anything you ask me to.
No I don't wanna go on without you in my life.
I'll make any sacrifice for you,
do anything you ask me to.
(do anything you ask me to)
Verse 2:
Last night, I laid awake,
I couldn't stop thinking of you.
(thinking of you)
I must of called you a thousand times,
but I couldn't get through,
so much was going throughout my mind.
(did I really lose you this time?)
I just want you to come back home,
'cause since you been gone,
I haven't been the same.
I would do anything...
Chorus:
'Cause I don't wanna go on without you in my life.
I would do anything for you,
(do anything you ask me to)
No I don't wanna go on without you in my life.
I'll make any sacrifice for you,
do anything you ask me to.
(do anything you ask me to)
Bridge:
I realize how much I really need you
(in my life)
Cause without you here my life is incomplete.
Baby you are my destiny
(Oh ho ohhhh)
Chorus:
'Cause I don't wanna go on without you in my life.
I'll make any sacrifice for you,
do anything you ask me to.
No I don't wanna go on without you in my life.
I'll make any sacrifice for you,
do anything you ask me to.
(do anything you ask me to) |

WARNING! do not proceed if you are easily troubled by references to the human body... OK!! i'm warning you... don't get upset, if you go and read this entry..
you've been warned... and i shall go forth.
ok. so i heard this today... i thought it was pretty absurd but kinda memorable... like one of those things you might just say off-hand one day. idk.
she said "life is a dick, when it gets hard"
so.... here's where i'm troubled. it's like a dangling modifier (no pun intended). like is she refering to life getting hard. or a d*** getting hard. ya feel? (oy... again. didn't mean that)
ANYWAYS...
that's all i've got to say right now. updated my pics... added a bunch on my webshots album. go see if you're in there, yet... hehe! *muah*

so this weekend i read a whole girly novel. it was called, don't die, my love. i know i know.. it just screams high school romance turned all wrong... and yup. that's what it was. but it was SOOO sad. like all these emotions pinned down within me just wanted to explode. it made me all nostalgic for high school and those "carefree" days and all that good stuff... and all the drama. everything's so chill nowadays... and don't get me wrong, i love it. really i do... but it wouldn't hurt to hear some rumors here or there, idk.. some juicy gossip unrelated to politics or whatever. maybe that's just me being immature. i don't know. all i know is that after friday's football game @ dvc, i just wanted to relive certain parts of my past.
talking on the phone yesterday with lauren put me in that mood again too... it's so crazy how much we'd bonded in like 2 years.... absolutely, crazy. but a totally awesome crazy nonetheless. (am i making any sense?) i can just picture us being those two old ladies on my happy 17th birthday card talking about our exploits and of course, talking about men... (not boys). hahaha.. oh dear. and certain men in particular i'm sure! lauren, let's face it... we'll never be rid of this odd fascination. it's like an old habit that'll never break. that just lingers and finds way of popping out at us out of nowhere... i honestly don't think there's any way to forget about it either... we've got too many "resources"... haha! time to start writing those screenplays... the WB will LOVE us!
anyways... aside from that, what else is there to say??
*think*
oh ok, dinner tonight w/ the CO bunch was really fun! took a trip down college ave. w/ the whole lot.. good times. good times.
*think*
random personal issue: i miss getting flowers!
someone get me flowers! a flower! a picture of a flower! idk... i miss seeing those. i never see flowers anymore.. it's all grass and ivy and trees around here... enough w/ the green. what i wouldn't give for a rose right about now?
ok. i'm weird like that... deal with it. i am. |

my week at a glance... a long extended gotta-scroll-down-the-page glance:
monday 10/13: honestly don't remember.. it's been a week, people. how sad... (*edit 45 minutes later*: i called up justin bedecarre and emailed karla anselmo to say happy birthday! the first two kids on our class roster for 9 years... yup! i remembered! did some catching up with justin.. he sounds like he's having a grand time @ cal! he's pledging beta. busy guy... we should do lunch or dinner or something sometime soon.)
tuesday 10/14: on tuesday i woke up at 6:30! yes, 6:30! and i didn't even have class till 12:30!! why, you ask? because I thought I had to do morning flyering evey week. boy was i wrong... stupid stupid! oh well, it was just me w/ my trusty blueberry muffin & milk and the dudes in the sweeper trucks down at the sproul fountain. at least the brisk walk back downhill woke me up early... but those construction guys are really freakin me out. i feel like they're undressing me with their eyes or something... eek!!! gross..
when i got back to stern, it was allllllllll about studying my ass off for the chem midterm. sheesh. math discussion was alright. grigor is possibly the coolest math GSI ever! we really have fun in that class.. we being: me, brian, and david.. in that order. it's become our new seating arrangement.. ever since brian decided to switch it up a few weeks back. s'all good. ooo, and beverly is my friendster now! lol!! isn't friendster wonderful... join! join! be my friend! lol... wow, it's addicting.
after that i decided that some last minute studying and food and rest was in order before the midterm.. so that's what i did. but not in that order. i ate, then slept (napped) then studied... unfortunately, i left my phone off and phil had called to see if i wanted to go grab something to eat with him before the test. darn! missed opportunity to chat it up with one of my favorite berkeley poeple.. oh well... so i took the test. and i felt ok coming out of it... three hours later the grades were posted. quick, i know! didn't do too shabby.. i missed more problems than last time though, which is kinda sad.. cuz you think you'd do better the next time around. no worries.. the extra credit'll even it out and still put me in A range. thank goodness for those extra two questions!
tuesday night was also pretty damn hectic. i went to 4 (count 'em.. 1,2,3,4) hall asses! what a work out! first was ours... then hillside to drop off their michael moore tickets and an invitation for their president, monty... then la loma to deliver more invitations. they were having a slumber party theme. it looked pretty cool, plus they raffle off prizes... nifty, huh? i kinda felt out of place being fully clothed 'n all.. but whatever. i got some free cheesy sticks in the process.. i was a happy gal... and then i met up with shea from bowles and dorie to go to unit 1 freeborn/putnam to solicit $$$ for Bowles Halloween party.. they were having a cross-dressing theme. very interesting apparel... very. interesting. lol. jenn was really cool about us coming this week and even last week... it's good to have connections. they decided to give us $100. they rock! after that we all walked up to stern & bowles. somehow, it didn't seem as bad. it never really seems as bad at night or when you're walking and talking with people on the way up... i wonder why that is. (note: next time i meet up with phil, don't talk on the way up... see if it feels different) maybe the conversation lightens your mood or something, and you're not concentrating on how much the walking sucks, but on the topic at hand (fix note: don't talk on part of the way up.. i like phil convos. plus i wouldn't wanna be a boring escortee)
and later that night, i talked to christina kim (deputy chief of staff) about my morning adventure... alone.
chris J kim1221: did you go today??
CaLxPiNaYx07: yes
CaLxPiNaYx07: at least it got me outta bed.

chris J kim1221: ahhh i hate talking on the phone
CaLxPiNaYx07: i don't usually talk on the phone. just with my super duper close friends.. that live hundreds of miles away now.
chris J kim1221: yeahyeahhh that's when i make the exception
CaLxPiNaYx07: exactly
CaLxPiNaYx07: i just don't call people randomly..
CaLxPiNaYx07: lol
CaLxPiNaYx07: that's weird
chris J kim1221: i used to though in junior high
chris J kim1221: like everyone would get bored
chris J kim1221: so we would page each other in pager codes
chris J kim1221: and call ands tuff
CaLxPiNaYx07: oh man! pager code! that was like ages ago
CaLxPiNaYx07: i never really got the hang of it.
chris J kim1221: 4011 010177?
chris J kim1221: hahahahaha
CaLxPiNaYx07: what?
chris J kim1221: ahhh mannn i was pro at pager codes
chris J kim1221: you didn't?
chris J kim1221: "you didn't"
chris J kim1221: that's what i put
CaLxPiNaYx07: OMG!
CaLxPiNaYx07: i never wouldn't figured that out
chris J kim1221: i guess you're not as cool as me
chris J kim1221:
chris J kim1221: 
CaLxPiNaYx07: i probably would've tried to all night and then come into the office tomorrow screaming at you to tell me, if you hadn't just now.
CaLxPiNaYx07: 
chris J kim1221: you know what....
chris J kim1221: that sounds like a good idea!
CaLxPiNaYx07: what?
CaLxPiNaYx07: NO! don't!!
chris J kim1221: 50 ... 40111 623 4011 001179 12176?
CaLxPiNaYx07: the daily cal will just have one more thing to write about "crazy interns screaming numbers"
chris J kim1221: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
chris J kim1221: i bet you they would!
chris J kim1221: if you run into the office going "christina!!1 23987239458734592857324989"
chris J kim1221: ok i gotta make like tom and cruiseeeeeeeee
chris J kim1221: i'll ttyl!
CaLxPiNaYx07: aight
CaLxPiNaYx07: later girl!
oh man... good times online. oh.. and it only took me like 20 minutes to figure out that she said "so... how are you doing rita?".. lol. duh.
(i personally have nothing against the daily cal. yes, a lot of it is baised AGAINST the ASUC. but hey, you can't win 'em all.. but they should just chill with the bad talk for a lil while. i mean, without eshleman hall, they'd be out of work.)
wednesday 10/15: had classes like I normally do. 9-10 chem 1a / 10-11 math 1a / 12-1 intro to CE... had lunch with jordan and kelsey and two more of her CE friends that i hadn't met before... the dude she was with had such cool hair. if he was a girl, i'd be so jealous... lol. i mean, it was black like mine (i think it was black) but it had loose ringlet-y curls. soooo pretty. i'd want hair like that for a day or so. i bet it's a bitch to handle though. it looked so soft. idk... i just wanted to run my fingers through it. haha, i've got a thing for guy's hair. hahahahahahahaha... anyone want a head massage?? i'm down if you've got good hair. how superficial of me!
later, i went to Eshleman to do some work in the OP.. i love working there! another family. anyway, i wrote myself a lil task/idea list as the new marketing director (external marketing). i thought it was pretty damn good. after that, i compiled more contacts for our mailing lists to the JCs in the Bay Area.. yup yup. representin Cal to the fullest 'round da yay... haha (that one's for you jamie.. the pnay frum da yay) around 5 i got bored... so did christina. so i taught her a dance.. lol. we shut the door to kris' office so he would be "disturbed"... lol. or see us making fools of ourselves dancing in the office. lol. i'm sure he knew though.. i was counting loud enough.. haha. richard showed up a lil later.. we weren't expecting him, but it was a nice surprise. around 5:45 me and richard headed over to Greg's pizza for our weekly community outreach meeting
.... ok. gonna take a break. having dinner with frances & her roomie. i'll be back to finish this thing... see, this is what happens when you procrastinate with your logs... you never have enough time to finish!! lol |

so.. right now, it's 2:08. technically, i should be at the OP office by now, but what's a half hour. i put in more than 5 hours a week anyway. it's kinda weird. idk if i'm at intern status or cabinet/senior staff status now... i have a bigger role but i still only have to do 5 hours... i'd willingly do more. i really enjoy working there despite recent events... it's all good. we're a family. we've got each other's back. so don't go messing with us... lol. forget democratic gov't. we'll go mafia family on your ass... (JK!!!!) which reminds me, on monday, some of us in the office were thinking of little activities we could do to bond! cranium. game night. talent show. camping trip <-- i think that's happening in november! yay! tahoe!. secret santas. dinner. movies. SF day trip/Jack London Square. and ASSASSINS!!! yeah.. assassins! ASU-sassins... hahahahahaha... so many people were hyped about that one! we'll see what happens.
i'll be back to write more later. i think i should go to the office now... feeling irresponsible. eek! |

+ if you're frig is set on level 6, you will have no more juice. you will have ice.

+ frozen sobe, frozen water (duh. ice), frozen juice... thank goodness for milk
+ food. ah! christina got me thinking about food again! |

| tanya is the greatest blog designer EVER!! girl.. you must be psychic on so many levels. i mean, you created this blog temp for ents, but how perfect is it for me, too? SUPER DUPER PERFECT! oh my! jamie and me and rachel have been belting this one out for awhile now... tanya, you're the best "ate" ever!! that's why you're the ULTIMATE ATE! haha.. way better than cito (#1) or josh (#2) ever could be! lol... must be the increased levels of estrogen or somethin? however, josh and cito have exhibited a highly feminine side a time or two. sorry guys, it's true. but nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. feminine fingers and being very open about lots of things is cool. i swear. it's cool! oh, and i must say that winky has quite an attraction to joshy-poo. awwww! how cute. get 'em winky. josh, you just don't know what you're missing!! lol... tanya's so lucky to have winky in her life. i say WINKY FOR GOVERNOR! better yet. FOR GOVERNATOR! hahahahahah... just kidding, but ya know... i bet winky could totally take on schwartzenegger (sp?).. i think that's the right spelling? maybe? dude, i can't even spell his name confidently. must practice... might see it on my diploma some day (oh how i hope it doesn't come to that. aye-yi-yi...) |

from lauren's blog:
thinking while i was looking out the window (because really, how can one focus when its that pretty outside?) i remembered that part from "about a boy" when marcus is talking about his relationship with ellie: where he explains that he wants to be with her all the time, wants to tell her everything, and doesn't want her to have another boyfriend....and if he can have all these things, he doesn't really mind whether he touches her or not....and it totally connected with what we talked about in philosophy today, about the nature of eros and the hypocrisy of the pederasts in ancient greece who claimed that the most virtuous love was the platonic form in which gratification wasn't necessary as long as you could share ideas and speeches and, in that one person find the completion of yourself (hypocritcal because they almost never resisted gratifying their lovers, just to make that clear)....and the thing is, society is still like that now; we say we're in love at first sight, that we "need" someone without really knowing them...there's no way you can be completed, made whole, made to understand the whole, simply by "embracing" another person who you find attractive at first sight; you need to find out about them, talk to them...and its these people, rather than the strikingly attractive at first glance, who you suddenly discover complete you. good way to judge love, and something to think about in the 5 minutes of spare time you have when you're not studying for midterms or writing papers or something: why do you love someone? and in the case of eros, or erotic love, would you love the person if you couldn't touch them, etc? ( i realize its more fun this way, you know...but i'm trying to be lofty for just a minute here; just let me get it out of my system...although, really, i think it makes good sense) would they mean as much to you if you couldn't be physically intimate? does the person you desire physical closeness with complete you, or at least do they have to potential to do so?
well... the last two weeks have been pretty cool. minimal stress, drama, and such... but upon reading my best bud's blog, i found myself falling back into a state of sadness. thanks lauren. i know it's unintentional and has nothing to do with me in particular... but, still, damn... hit em where it hurt. or hurts....
see. maybe that's my problem.. i thought i was moving on--moving forward. but i think i might've just been fooling myself all along.
the other day he sent me a link of his friend's online photo album. i hadn't seen him in a month and a half, but then seeing the pictures... idk, something inside of me that must've been holding onto his memory must've kicked into gear or something. it's weird. we've been keeping contact. talking on aim a few nights a week. the occassional phone call. an email or two. but actually seeing him ("evil eyes" and all) at college weakened me, i think. it's like they're there... but they're not. (if that makes any sense at all)
i don't think this should be bothering me, but it is. and i need to get it out in the open. it's hard not to have my usual posse around to talk to and gossip with and get all "lugubrious" on. detached/random statements on AIM. virtual hugs. awkward silences. is this how the next 4 years will continue? i guess i might as well get used to it.
sometimes i wonder if people will remember me. b/c i know i'll always remember them.
i feel alone.
oh yeah, i am. my roomie decided not to come back till tomorrow. thus begins my looooong night of hw. |
