Blog Hiatus...

It has been a long time since I've touched this blog. I've been very busy with a lot of school crap that I had no time to write on this. Although I haven't been writing on it, I kept on thinking what to write here. I want to write things that not only would relieve me from boredom, but also things that would entertain my readers as well. I've gotten a few ideas, namely short stories or a continues story but its going to be in a series... I'm not sure yet. During this break, I'll think of these options. If I am able to write at least 5 stories/chapters, then I'll continue it for the rest of the year next year (and hopefully I keep up with it).

Well, I'll see how it goes. Latez y'all.

Depressed

Ugh... I despise not having my own computer. I feel like a part of me was severed from my body. I was not the only one who broke it. Yet Nexon destroys my computer and potentially destroy my life. I did not even play the MMO and yet it finds a way to ruin me...

My computer might have its problems because of age, but I cannot believe that the person who broke it did not take full responsibility. What a #@$!%!$#@%!!! "I'm partially responsible..." You have no idea what you have caused me. I have never encountered a BSoD on that laptop. You're telling me that it was my laptop's problems that destroyed my laptop... Well, let's use the analogy you tried to use against me but failed because it backfired...

Midterm Week

Damn it. Quarter is going by so fast. I feel that I haven't studied at all (which is actually somewhat true) so I feel unprepared for those midterms. I know I learned a lot of things, however, I don't know if I'll be able to pull those out during the test. I fail at taking tests. That's why I never liked the SATs. Too much pressure. I wish, hope and pray that I don't choke.

P.S.- I don't like ranting about school, but these days, I don't have much to talk about that I want to share.

First Kiss...

Never experienced it. I want to, but I'm afraid. I know after that, I won't know if I'll be able to stop myself...

To do list:: Full, Finished list: Zilch

Well, here we go again. First week of sophomore year is over, and what have I done?

-Start playing Disgaea
-Brawl almost 1/3 of my day
-sleep 1/3 of the day
-go to classes and dont do any reading...
-work in Plaza for 10 hrs/wk

At this rate, I'll be hitting the slumps.With all the crap that I try to get involved in this quarter? CK, AMSA, RPB, ASP, VA,maybe KP? I got lots of things to do. I am hoping for a miracle to pull this off. If everything goes well, then great; if not, then I'm going to be F'd liked I've never been F'd before.

Bored...

I know when people are not fond of my company or when people are bored of me. It shows. There's a saying, "actions speak louder than words." I am who I am, I cannot change who I am, but what I can do is to improve on it. I never like awkward silences during conversations or awkward actions when I do something. It really really really annoys me. How can I improve myself if the people around me don't even bother listening?

I know I have to keep an open mind on things, but I act like I'm a mirror. I reflect the actions, feelings and thoughts back to the person I am with. If you talk to me, I'll respond to you. If you want to get to know me, I'll try to get to know you. If you feel awkward around me, I'll feel the awkwardness and return it to you. Hell, if you don't talk to me, I won't talk to you. If you think like I'm not interesting, then why bother talk to you if you won't even make the effort to conquer that impression of me. I'm not that kind of person that wastes time on something that I know would have little or no results.

I already felt this way before. I have things to connect with,but each connection are just bits and pieces. There are no perfect fits. I would say that I have things that connect with people, but they are mixed. I would compare myself to a sampler appetizer. I have different tastes that appeals the tastebuds, but not enough to satisfy the hunger. Everybody talks about the main course, but hardly the appetizer.

I don't like being noticed, especially when the thing I am being noticed about is something that's not fully me, something that doesn't define my whole identity. I do not have a specific thing, like being the jock, or the clown or the cool guy, or even the annoying guy, that people immediately identifies me with. I am that kind of guy that can fit in with anybody, but not fully, trully fit in. It takes time to get to know each complex side of me, and people nowadays do not have that much time.

Yeah, I know for a fact that I am awkward and shy when people and I meet for the first time. I have a knack for opening up to those who actually takes the time and make the effort to talk to me. If you are reading this right now and just suddenly change your mind about me and actually start to make the effort to get to know me, I would most likely be not inclined to open up to you because it's not natural. I would feel that you are pitying me and you're just acting this way because of this post. Your actions towards me are going to be fake and unnatural and most likely awkward...and like I said a while ago, I am like a mirror and I would reflect that back to you.I will notice if your actions towards me changes, and if it does, I will say to myself "I should not have written that post...maybe I should just cut myself and bleed it out..." (just kidding ^^", I ain't emo and that's someone I would never turn to)...Point is- I wouldn't want you to change

I might be overthinking this situation, but it is hard for me to ignore the facts that are right in front of me. I had this fear before already, but I cannot believe I am actually living it. I'm not writing this so I can get pity, recognition, fame or attention. One reason is to share my mind to those who are actually interested in reading other people's thoughts. I cannot fully express what I think so things come out of me really stupidly and awkwardly face to face. Through writing, I can pause and gather my thoughts and actually express what I want to say. It is one of my huge flaws as a person that I am trying to improve on. Reacting negatively or passively to it won't help me at all. Maybe my voice is not easily heard, or my presence is not easily felt, so I apologize for that. I try to just be chill bout things, but I wouldn't think that it would be to the extreme.

If you feel that I am talking about you, whoever is reading this post right now *points at reader from the screen*, then you're probably the one that is making me rant right now lol... Well I forgot what I was thinking of saying now...sooo I might continue this rant soon...depends

Summer Days...Day...umm..who cares XD

Well, summer break is almost over. I have fulfilled many things, but I feel that I could have done more. I feel that way because I know I could have spent more time exploring the outside world other than the comforts of my house. I did accomplish 2/3 of my main goals for this summer. As for NYRs, I have failed everything on it except for #10 because they were either irrelevant or its already broken.. so yeah... summer... Right now, I would probably give it a 6/10. Who knows, things can get better.

Summer Days: Day 16

Well, day 16 of summer is just getting started. I'm virtually procrastinating on my essay that's due today for class, yet I am not worried. I even have time to write 2 blogs (including this) today.

Summer is taking its toll... I like the long days, but I dread the hotness...Feeling toasted in the heat of the sun and being bored at home is a very bad combination...or is it? I was so thirsty that I went to the fridge to check what drinks we have that is cold. I saw our pitcher of water and a couple cans of Mountain Dew. I decided to take the water because I want to drink O.J. using the powdered O.J. and water. While I was getting a glass, I thought of something interesting to do. I thought I should try doing an experiment.

I put the water back in the fridge and got a can of Mountain Dew instead. I got my glass and emptied the Mountain Dew in it. Then I put about 4 tablespoons of powdered O.J. in the caffeine and sugar filled glass (yeah I know I put too much O.J.) then I mixed them together. Voila! "Orange Dew".

I drank its sugary goodness. The taste was rather interesting. The powdered O.J. was very potent, yet the caffeinated beverage still made its mark. About 10 minutes after I drank the mix, I felt my head ache. Is this sugar rush? Maybe...well actually, I think it is. 4 tbsp (55 grams) of o.j. (which I bet was 2 tbsp sugar or more) and Mountain Dew (highest caffeine among the sodas and the added 46 grams of sugar in it) in a 12 oz glass? Yeah...diabetics, this drink is not for you.

All in all, I still have the sugar rush, and I had that drink... 6-7pm? I don't remember, and I still don't feel the crash... yep... I'll probably be awake for a while...

Final thoughts/advice:
1. Experimenting when bored is fun, especially with food.
2. If you are doing this mix, please dilute it water.
3. This would be a good mix next year during those long, painful all-nighters.
4. Diabetics-this is not for you.

That's it y'all.

P.S.- This was a more successful food experiment than my "Nacho Cheese Dipped Cookie" experiment way back when lol.

Mysteries...

Mystery 1- I have found many answers about this mystery, and now I see its true form. However I could see that I still have many things to learn...nonetheless, my interest is wearing thin....

Mystery 2- Each time I answer a question, more questions arise... Its seemingly endless trail leads to nowhere...Thus, makes my interest in this conundrum decline.

Mystery 3- Even though I slowly uncover thy secrets, I greatly appreciate that my patience is paying off. I will be vigilant.

Mystery 4- The most difficult mystery of all. I could not careless about the other three when this mystery is here. The more I delve myself in this mystery, the more I get curious, but it also makes me want to run away from it... Staying with this mystery would be a great asset in the future...

P.S. Thanks Sameer for the 'Tizzler Sampler'. I'm listening to it atm ^-^

Summer Days: Day 5

I start the countdown of summer June 14, 2009, Sunday. This is the start of the first week of my actual summer break. I wouldn't really call it a break yet because June 15, I went immediately back to school for summer class.

I need to be in this class because I need to work on my college g.e.'s. It is English 101. I have 4 essays to do in 5 weeks. Pretty intimidating at first glance, but I'm sure I could manage it pretty well. It's the only class I'm taking anyways so I could really focus on it more. At least I'm not stuck at home rotting my brains out doing nothing or playing video games all day and being unproductive with my life. It would keep me busy for at least 5 weeks.

I actually finished my first essay already. It is a 4 page descriptive essay on a door. Yes, you read right- a door. You're probably asking yourself how can you describe a door in 4 pages. It's not that hard. I probably could write more, but I'm a lazy and stingy guy. I don't want to waste paper and ink. First week of classes and I already have a paper due 3 days in to it. I don't mind.

My previous weekend I believe is not worth mentioning because all I can take out of it is negativity and bad news. There's a saying, "if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all". I think that's what I'm going to do. Just let it go and move on with my own life. This doesn't mean I don't care; I still care greatly, but I don't want to be consumed by it that I wreak havoc.

Anyways... That's all for today. Sorry to those people who tune in my blog everyday and have not seen a post since...ever! I have been very busy recently so I had no time to post something.

See y'all!

If a picture can paint a thousand words...

...it can sure tell you many things. There are hidden messages surrounding it. You can probably look at the back of it and see a hidden message.

Random scene 6: Inner Self

It's swallowing me from the inside
I hate how this hates my pride
As the days go by I feel weak
Right now the pain is at its peak

Sickness and pestilence
I have no defense
against its ill effects
Why do I have these defects

Must hide the grave
but others I should save
It's touch is gruesome
but I think everyone is numb

Too late when it's detected
Effects of it has been inflicted
Pardon me for being the harbinger
I hate the one to bring danger

Random Scene 5: Picture

"We should take him out of the picture. He is a big threat to both of us."

"I know, Zack. He was able to convince my girlfriend to break up with me. Think of the other things he could do to."

"Yeah I know. Shit happens. I never thought he could really do such a thing. You and Pauline were doing great. I never really saw your break up coming."

"Pauline was everything to me. I love her and it pains me to see her go. Damn you, Clarence! I should have kept him away from her. How did I not see it? Actually, how did I not do anything about it when I saw the signs? Was I that trusting?"

"None of us really thought that Clarence can pull off such thing. It's just hard I guess to predict what's on his mind."

"That's the thing. He was doing things in front us and we did not do a thing. We let him do whatever he wanted. He was even saying things to us, but we did not do anything."

"We just thought he was joking. Come on, it's Clarence. He's a harmless, trustworthy fellow, well, the Clarence I met was."

"He changed. He's not what he used to be."

"Yeah, I liked him back then. He was quiet; he was so shy to girls. Now, man... he makes us look like amateurs."

"That's why we should do something about it. We can't let him step on our manhood anymore. He attracts all the attention. That bastard. Why can't he just go away?"

"That's it! If we just keep him away from Haley I could worry less."

"..."

"And it will benefit you too. You can't be paranoid of him trying to steal your girl no mo'."

"What do you have in mind?"

"Well, if we can show to the girls that Clarence is a lying, conniving prick, they won't like him anymore."

"We got a problem there... He is a good guy, a nice guy. They would not believe it. Clarence would also sense something is wrong if we did that. He'll be able to save his good name and in the end, we'll look like the bad guys."

"But we're not the bad guys. He is."

"How are we going to do it? He's a type of person that you just can't find bad things about, besides him really charismatic to girls."

"We could...I don't know. I'll figure it out."

"I already talked to Pauline about it, but instead of considering my view, she defends him."

"Those girls... they are easy to persuade. Clarence is taking advantage of it, so why should not we? We could extend the truth and they will believe it. Just a little exaggeration should do the trick."

"I don't know...We'll see... I think that plan is flawed, but what the heck. As long as we get him out of the picture."

Random scene 4: Concert

The opening act is done. The crowd’s wait for the headliner is over. Chanting and yelling starts to fill the stadium as the guitarists and drummer of the band is setting foot onstage. The guitarist strums the first note of the intro. The crowd goes wild. The drummer plays his piece. The singer enters the stage with a powerful voice. Fireworks lighted in the back middle of the stage. The frenzy is on.

Edward has been looking forward for this moment. Seeing his favorite band for the first time live was his dream. He wanted to be in front badly that he battled through a big crowd just to get in front, to see the band up close. He is very happy and excited to be in that concert that he would not trade his place at that moment for anything else.

The band played lively songs that got the audience pumped up. The music filled the stadium energy and excitement. It could make a weary ghoul become a vivacious soul. Blithe and ecstasy is in the air. Edward is so hooked into the music that he did not care who is around or who is watching. All he cared about was to have fun. It seemed that the other people shared his sentiments. As the excitement grows, crowd surfers start popping out of the audience. Men and women alike were screaming to get involved in with the music. Many started to dance with the tune. Everybody is having the time of their life.

As Edward was getting in the groove of the song, a girl beside him caught his eye. The girl was wearing a white tank-top with blue jeans. Her striking looks appealed to Edward’s eagle eye. She seemed to be very engaged in the music almost like she was possessed by some spirit. Guess what? He was too.

The girl looked at Edward; she gave him a leer which seemed more to be a tempting glare. Their eyes lined up with each other as they sense the chemistry between them. Both individuals got closer to each other and then they had a mutual understanding; they started to kiss each other. Their hands were rubbing each other’s body, trying to feel each other’s warmth and burning passion. They continued to make out throughout the rest of the song, which took about two minutes.

The last music has been played. The concert ends with a bang. Everybody enjoyed it. Edward loved it. The girl who danced with him approached him. She approached him and gave him a big hug. The girl started to walk away then she suddenly turned around. She waved at him and blew a kiss. Edward was awestruck. He then felt something on his pocket. It was a cell phone, but it wasn't his. He checked it out and he realized that the girl put it in his pocket. He then looked around and then looked at the phone again.

“Oh hot damn! I scored tonight, baby!” he said to himself as he walks towards the exit.

Random scene 3: Dream

My phone under my pillow vibrated. It means I got to get up to get my day started. I really wasn't looking forward to getting up. I had to actually force my eyes to open up. Then some weird laugh echoed in my ear. It sounded like Woody Wood Pecker's laugh so it kind of irritated me.

...

I tried to ignore it, then I felt something creeping in my bed. I thought it was me trying to move around then I realized I was not moving. I opened my eyes and I saw Nikko, climbing my bead and reaching for the the window. I said to him in curiosity and in annoyance, "What the heck are you trying to do?" Then I heard the WWP laugh again. After opening the window, Nikko dashed towards the door then he said, "Fifteen minutes, Mike"( or something like that).

My eyes followed him as he dashed outside the room. After that, I tried to go back to sleep. I straightened up my posture and then a figure by my feet caught my eyes. I looked at it and saw Sameer, doing an Egyptian pose and he was smiling directly at me. I don't know if he was trying to make me laugh or trying to creep me out. I blinked and then he was gone. I heard the WWP laugh again. Now my head started to hurt. I looked towards the direction where the laugh was coming from. Then I saw a figure in the middle of the room. The figure turned around; it was Carlo. Then I looked beside him. My whole desk was beside him. I was startled and bewildered why my desk was right in the center of the room. I asked him furiously, "Why the hell are you moving my stuff? Haven't we been through this 'personal space' conversation?" He just started laughing and then he replied "Cuz you're being a snob." He then continued to laugh and started to move my desk again. I yelled at him " Can you please just stop whatever you're doing?"

...

My phone vibrated again. I checked it. It was 9:50am. I pressed the snooze button. I wanted to just stay in my bed until 9:55am and see if I could make it to work with just 5 minutes to prepare. I heard someone walking inside my room. I thought it was Nikko, who was trying to wake me up. I just told him "I know" and he left the room. Well, I made it to work in record time. 5 minutes of preparation.

No post to day. Sorry guys =(

Due to a series of unfortunate events, I would not be posting a random scene today. I have lot's of things to do. To compromise for this, this Sunday, instead of it being a break from posting, I will post it then. I guess just think of it as a postponed post. To my audience, I deeply apologize and I hope you still tune in. =(

Random scene 2: "School day"

The school bell rang.

Every student went out of their classrooms to go to lunch break. Anne on the other hand, stayed longer in the biology lab to finish her lab report. The Mr. Johnson, her biology teacher, needed to go to a meeting. There was a policy that teachers cannot leave students unattended in classrooms, so Anne was required to leave. Mr. Johnson trusted Anne enough to leave her alone there.

Anne is now all alone in the lab. She is almost done with her paper, then someone went inside the lab. It was Jeremy, Anne's friend and crush. Jeremy went there, looking for Mr. Johnson to ask a question about the upcoming midterm. Jeremy walked towards her to check out what she was doing.

"What are you up to?" asked Jeremy.

"Just finishing up my paper." replied Anne.

Jeremy sat on the empty seat next to Anne. He then continued the conversation.

"Need help?"

"No, it's okay, thank you..."

Anne sense something a bit odd on how Jeremy was acting. Everyday, he is already making fun of her by now for being an overachiever or making fun of her appearance. Today was different. He was awfully very helpful and polite.

"You look beautiful today.Well you always do, that's why every guy in this school wants to be your boyfriend.Oh, did you already say yes to Travis? He's been really in to you. There's also Pete, the guy in our Spanish class. I think they are the two best candidates for you." Jeremy inquired.

Anne giggled. She was weirded out on how Jeremy is acting but at the same time, she is flattered because she has never done this to her before.

Anne stood up and and walked towards the teacher's table to turn in her paper. Jeremy followed her. Jeremy pushed her towards the blackboard. Anne was startled. She did not know what to do. He leaned his right hand at the blackboard while his other hand was at his side.

Jeremy was staring at her face like he was like possessed by something. She tried to avoid eye contact with him, but she cannot resist. Obviously he is trying to make a move on her. She has liked him for a long time so she doesn't know is she should let him make a move on her or shove him away and lose her chance of getting with him. Her heart was beating fast as Jeremy's face moved in closer to her face. Her body temperature was rising.

Jeremy moved in closer to Anne. He then whispered to her, "Would you like a lesson in anatomy?"








"Psyched! Gotcha!" Jeremy started to burst in laughter.

She was still stunned from what just happened as she was watching Jeremy cracking up.

"Oh man! You should have seen your face! It was priceless!" Anne furiously slapped him in the face right when he said that. She bursted to tears and ran outside the classroom.

"That was mean, but it had to be done," said Jeremy to himself as he tried to gather himself together. Mr. Johnson walked back in the classroom.

"I just saw Anne crying. What happened?" asked Mr. Johnson.

"Oh, nothing. It's just another school day." replied Jeremy.

Random scene 1: "The Call"

*phone rings*

"Who could this be? It's friggin' 3 in the morning. This better be a for a good reason." Keila said to herself while dragging herself out of bed to get her cellphone on her desk. She picked up her phone on top of her table.

Keila looked at the caller ID and it was one of her friends, Damon. She was still trying to pull herself together and try to take in what's going on. She was a little bit curious to why Damon would call at that time of the night. He doesn't usually talk to her via phone unless she was the one who called or he needed something very important.

"Hello?" Keila answered the phone. There was no response. All she hears is loud noise in the background. "Damon?" No one answered. She was a little bit weirded out so she decided to just hang up. Before she could press the End button, she heard a voice. She immediately put back the phone on her ear.

"Hello?" Keila said.

"Can you..." a voice responded.

"Damon?" responded to the voice with puzzled voice.

"..."

"What's up, are you alright?"

No response. She then decided to hang up the phone and went back to her bed.

After a couple of minutes, the phone rang again. It was Damon's phone again. Irritated, she quickly answered the phone. " Is this a joke? Cut it out! I need to wake up early tomorrow!"Keila said. This time, it was all silent and there was there was no response.

After that, she heard a noise by her window. She started to get creeped out. She peered at the window and he saw a figure of a man standing with a box on beside his feet. It appears the guy was holding something in his right hand. Keila was terrified. She quickly rushed to the door to lock it.

She peered again outside, the guy was gone but the box was still there. She decided to stay up for a little bit because she was so terrified. She then fell asleep.

In the morning, still terrified, she called Damon. He did not answer his phone. Then she noticed that she missed to read a couple of text messages, all from Damon. Apperently, one was sent before Damon's first call. The text says:

"Happy Birthday!"

The next message says:

"Don't go out of your room."

Then another message:

"Would you like a hand?"

May Gimmick Month: Week 2

Last week's gimmick was a success, at least in my opinion. I enjoyed it a lot and I liked how it turned out. I was surprised I was able to complete all the posts. Thank you to those who read and commented on the posts; I really appreciate it.

Anyways, new week, new gimmick. This week's posts will be scenes that randomly pop in my head. I'll be writing them in here. I would post 1 scene a day, anytime of the day. I'm going to anticipate that the scenes will be covering various things. They could be made up by myself, or just me remembering stuff I have seen. I promise that I'll try my best to keep it politically correct and appropriate for all ages (notice the "try" in this sentence). Do I have anything else to say... nope. That's it for today. I'm looking forward and excited to write this week's blog posts.

Daily Routine: Day 6 Review

Well, this is the last segment of Daily Routine gimmick. I really enjoyed it. Tomorrow I will give a full insight on this week's gimmick, as for now, the day's review.

Things to be done:

• Mall- made it there, got what I needed there, enjoyed my day there: Done
• some Chem hw- nah, tomorrow I'll do it for sure.: Fail
• ressurect my old blogs- I did and it's still in the process.: Ongoing

Well, I was with my friends, Abby and Danielle today at the mall. We looked for gifts for our moms for Mother's day. I don't actually know what they got for their moms. As for me, I got her a card and gift certificate for a movie theatre... Kind of lame huh? That's the only thing I could think of that I haven't given to her before and is very wallet friendly. Plus, I thought that my mom needs to chill and relax so I figured a movie ought to do the trick. So yeah...

That's it for Daily Routine. Next week, I will be doing something different. I will explain the rules of it tomorrow. Have a great week and good night y'all.

Daily Routine: Day 6

Well, this post should have been posted 1 hour ago because that's when I woke up, but I was busy so it was postponed until right now. Anyways let's get on with the program.

First sight: Dad walking in my door to wake me up

First thoughts: ...wow I don't remember it... (it's like an hour ago so I don't remember it exactly)

Dream: I did have a dream, but I don't remember it but the last scene. My friend, Demi, was holding a white paper and then she gave it to me. After that, I woke up.

Things to do:

• Mall
• some Chem hw
• continue to ressurect my other blog

Well that's it for this segment of Daily Routine... OH I have a story to tell before I go.

I was on my computer last night about 2 am. Then all of a sudden I heard a ruckus in front of my window. You see, my room is overlooking a main street and the windows were open because it was hot last night. Anyways, I checked out what the fuss was all about, then I saw two guys getting handcuffed by the police. It was right in front of our porch, exactly in front of it. I was like "What the heck?". I peered more through the window then I saw a car parked awkwardly and then behind it was a police car. Moments later more cops showed up. and the two people handcuffed were just there standing with their hands behind their back. I tried taking pictures of it, but there was poor lighting so I gave up on taking a good picture. I went back to sleep while they were still apprehending the people so I did not see the resolution.

Well, that's it. I got to go do stuff now. Adios y'all.

Daily Routine: Day 5 Review

Well, the school week is over. How fast does time fly? I'm so glad that the week is over, but sad that my first year in college will end.

Things to be done:

• Secret Mission- Okay, here's the "secret" mission. I was suppose to keep my visit back home a secret to my parents, especially my mom, because it is Mother's day. However, I thought that if I do that, there might be scheduling problems that would happen, like problems picking me up at the train station and dropping me back at UCSD. So I just decided to tell them. Also, I did not tell my friends this because I kinda felt like I just want to spend this visit with parents and just rest for a little bit. However, series of events just happened then BAM! Oh well... at least I got some people to be with in the mall for gift shopping =).

I spent most of my day with my suitemate Sameer, who also lives almost in the same area as I do. We took the Metrolink train together. He showed me a cheaper way to get back home lol.I enjoyed his company; I guess we got to know each other a little bit better through our convos.

Well, I guess that's it from me. I'm kinda tired from the trip so I'm going to sleep now. Good night y'all.

Daily Routine: Day 5

TGIF!!! One of the greatest days of week.Whenever it's Friday, I feel so happy and relaxed. Well, I got nothing right now so on to the firsts.

First sight: Sight of Carlo's empty bed

First thoughts: Extra credit and trying to remember my dream

Dream: I cannot remember it fully, but I remember a scene where I was in Suite 450's bathroom then I tried flushing the toilet and it did not recede, but instead it flooded. Jesse went inside the bathroom then he saw me then he said "It's okey man" then he flushed the toilet again. It flooded even more. I went outside the common room then Allen was there. *blank...transition...* Sameer and someone else planning to have a 2x2 square postcard of some sort.

Things to do:

• Secret Mission

I only have one thing to do, and that's the secret mission. I'll tell you guys about it later. As for now, I got to go to Chem Discussion. Have a great Friday and good morning y'all.

Daily Routine: Day 4 Review

Well, Day 4 is over. Overall, it was a tiring, boring, and unproductive day. Work, sleep and stay in front of the computer are the only activities I did. Typical Thursdays. Work really takes out a lot of energy from me, so the other activities I plan on doing do not materialize. I will be tired and then be sleepy. Pretty much nothing spectacular happened.

Things to be done

• Chem hw - ... :Fail
• Film quiz -only productive thing I did: Done
• maybe read a lil? (optional) -It's optional so I did not do it: No grade
• research on community colleges-I figured I should do that when I come home: Fail/Postponed

Oh yeah, I forgot to grade my "things to be done" list last night. I guess I'll just omit them. They were all pretty much done. Anyways, I'm off for the night. Tomorrow, rather today, I will be in a "secret" mission. For you guys out there, I will make sure you're "attendance" will be broken! *evil laugh* [Inside thing so if you don't get it, then it's probably not for you lol] For next week's gimmick, I would like to do a question and answer kind of thing. Ask me anything that you would like to know about me. I mean ANYTHING. It has to be serious though and try not to be too personal, but you CAN ask personal questions. Please submit questions in my email: comebackkid1419@yahoo.com Good night y'all!

Daily Routine: Day 4

Oh my gosh! It's already Thursday?! It was like just 5 minutes ago when I wrote my first blog for this gimmick. How time flies by... I only have 36 days left of my Freshman year in college =O Wow... Anyways, looking at the window outside, I say it's going to be a great day with good weather. When I checked the weather online, the high is 76 degrees; I say that's pretty good. Too bad I can't enjoy it because I'm going to be working inside all day long =/ Well, on to the firsts list

First sight: My clock. When I saw it I was horrified because I looked it was like 1:29. I had to work at 10am, but it turns out that it was upside down and it was really 9:21.

First thoughts:
*looks at the clock*

...5 sec pause... "

WHAT THE HELL?!?!?! My alarm did not go off?!"

*gets up from bed really fast to check cell phone time*

"Oh...nevermind..."

Dreams: zilch

Things to do:

• Chem hw
• Film quiz
• maybe read a lil? (optional)
• research on community colleges

Well, that's it for this morning. Have a great day and good morning y'all.

Daily Routine: Day 3 Review

Another day has passed, another day to look forward to. Another day to live. I guess I'm loving it, for the most part at least. Well, here's the review of the day.
Started off with a Bio Midterm. I did not study as much as I could because of business last week. I know for a fact that I was not prepared for the exam. I'm just hoping that luck is on my side. I guess that's it for academics. Chem and Math are boring to talk about, so no need to spend time on it.

Film class was good. We watched two war documentaries that were pretty damn morbid. The first one had a lot of footage and pictures of the Nazi concentration camps during WWII. It was basically a mini-documentary of a Nazi concentration camp. The second documentary was about the conflict going on in Sierra Leonne in Africa with regards to the diamonds. I classify those videos shown as "eye-openers" to the current condition of our world. I guess that's about it. Nothing special about it. I was so bored that I was doodling during the class and texting my friend.

I say the highlight of the day was the basketball game. I say it was EPIC! Very, very very close. The teams were Nikko, Chase and Jesse vs. Tai, Allen and I. The game was up and down. One team would make a run, then cool off, then the other team make their own run, then they cool off. It was an up and down battle. For the final moments of the game, my team was down and the gym was closing in a couple of minutes, so we decided for last possession. If it switches possessions, the game was over. We had possession of the ball. Allen made a shot that put tied us with the other team. Then it's our possession again. All I remember was after the inbound pass, the other team's defense was so tight that we had trouble controlling the ball. I remember that Tai lost control of it then Nikko and Jesse chased the ball. I reckon seeing them both on the ground trying to get the loose ball. Then for some odd reason, Tai was the one who got it. He dribbled a little bit, then he pulled up for a 3-pointer. I was following the path of the ball, then I yelled out "For the win...!!!" then swish! Tai made the clutch shot for the win! Amazing game. I kudos Jesse for doing well too, offensively and defensively. Very intense game...

Well, that's it for tonight. I got to go to sleep. I got work in about...6.5 hours. Better get some rest. Before I go, I would like to give a shout out to Chase; he is going home for a week =[ Have a safe trip! ( I don't even know if he reads this, but what the heck lol) Well good night y'all!

Daily Routine: Day 3

Well, Day 3 of my Daily Routine May Gimmick. So far, I've been keeping up with it (astonishingly). So yeah... (While reading, imagine me saying these in real life*)

First sights: Everything was dark but a small tiny light guided my way...tiny light=cell phone light

First thoughts: "My alarm went off...Ok...Must not let yesterday happen again."

Dreams: None to report.

Things to do:

• Bio midterm
• Math quiz
• Maybe Chem homework
• Water balloon fight planning...?

Well, that's it for this morning. I know it's kinda short and bland so it's not that exciting... That's why I said in the beginning to imagine me saying it in person. So...if you thought that it was still boring even if you imagined me saying these in real life, then I that means I am a boring person Y-Y... Oh well, enjoy this day and good morning y'all!

* I wrote the * after I was done with the normal outline because I realized it was boring for me.

If you don't understand what "Y-Y" means, try using your eyes. I say that's one of my trademark stuff... It's supposed to be a crying smiley like T-T.

I changed font just for randomness... so yeah...enough P.S.'s

Daily Routine: Day 2 Review

Well, it's that time of the day when people should be having their beauty sleep and resting for a beautiful day ahead of them. Guess what I'm going to do at that time? That's right... Join those people sleeping. Thought I'd say the opposite? Haha, yeah right! Even if I have a midterm tomorrow, or today actually, that I did not study for, I would not deprive myself of one of my pleasures. Anyways, on to the daily review.

Well, the highlight of the day is the MAE concert at the Loft. I was with my buddies Sameer and Nikko. I enjoyed it, and I bet they enjoyed it too. Even the opening acts were good; actually I'm only speaking about Person L. It was a sold out concert, and it being sold out was for a good reason.

List of things to be done:

• Study Biology-did some, but I think not enough: No grade
• Try to finsih Math homework- nothing to be said: Fail
• MAE Concert-overall, a-MAEzing! ( I just wanted to say that xD): Done

Well, going to sleep now. See you guys soon and good night y'all!

Daily Routine: Day 2

Well... Waking up early did not go as planned. My alarm went off at 5:30am, however, I was so exhausted yesterday that I just turned the alarm off and slept through it. " The mind is willing, but the flesh is weak." -_-" I will be basing my "firsts" on the 5:30am.

First sight of the day: I was facing my closet when I woke up so that's the first thing I saw.

First thoughts of the day: "Ughhhh... too...tired...must shut off the annoying alarm...bleh... I'll wake up an hour from now...( did not happen)

Dreams: Is it just me, or are my dreams very repetitive? I always dream of a chase. It's either me being chased, someone else is being chased and I'm just watching, or I'm the one doing the chasing. Today, I was the one being chased. I was with some girl I don't recognize/remember. She was wearing a white dress. We just kept running from an unknown persuer. We suddenly stopped and then she said to me "Go on without me. We can't be together."The dream stops there. Yeah...kinda lame huh? The thing is, I've dreamt a similar dream to this before and I blogged about it on my other blogs. So yeah...the end.

List of things to be done:

• Study Biology (Priority level 1)
• Try to finsih Math homework
• MAE Concert (YAY!!! ^-^)

Well, that's all for today. Have a great day and good afternoon y'all!

Daily Routine: Day 1 Review

Well Day 1 is over. So far, I've been productive this day. I hope this continues throughout the week.

Things to do today:

• get some Math homework done (min 10 questions): Did 14 questions... Done
• get some Bio studying done: nope...Unfinished
• get some Chem homework done (min 10 questions) Did 7 questions...(all have multiple parts so I guess I can count this... Done
• wash dishes...Done
• research on a community college: Instead of doing that, I tried fixing my bike. It had a demolished bearing so I needed it to be fixed... No Grade
• check-deposited: Pass

Final thoughts of the day...sleep time... I think I'll wake up early tomorrow so I could study more. I give up on S. Darko. I'll just watch it another time. I'm too tired and sleepy. Oh well, Good night y'all!

May Gimmick Month

For the month of May, every week, my blog will have posts that have different themes. For the whole week, starting Mondays, I will post blogs according to the theme I picked. The theme for this week is...

Daily Routines

Rules:

Everytime I wake up, I have to write down my first thoughts of the day, the dreams I had that night (if I had any) and the things I'm planning on doing and accomplishing.

Before I go to bed at night, I have to write down a daily report. Basically, normal blogging/online diary cliche crud...

Well, let's see how it goes. Knowing me, I'd probably not keep up with this since I'll be busy or I'll be lazy. We shall see how it goes.
