FUCK drama.
(Soulmate, I agree with you. Everything should come out into the open, yet I know that when everything does.. a lot of feelings will be hurt.)
Okay, I've come to the conclusion that my life should be free from BS. Starting now, I am anti-bs. Please don't attempt to talk to me if all that is going to come out of your mouth is shit. I find it quite disrespectful when you talk to me just for your benefit. For that, you are on the 'slap list'.
I can't stand how a person can have feelings of strong dislike for a certain person, yet still act like they love that person to death when they're around. Simply put, all of that is complete shit. I don't understand how someone can put up a front and act that way.. or even live their life like that.
Another thing I've realized.. I've found something that can help me pick out my true friends from my fake ass ones. The fake ones love you when you do things for them, go with them to do things they have to do, give them things, complement them, lend a shoulder for them to cry on, act as a sound board when they have to vent, and sacrifice things that you rather do just to please them. Yet, when you are in need, when you need someone to vent to, when you need a shoulder to cry on, when you are put down, they are nowhere in sight. Those are classifications of fake people that don't deserve your friendship.

How do you pronounce the word rhinoceros? Rye-no-ser-us? Ahahahah good times, good times.
Woke up at 5:30 am. Yeah, a tad bit too early for me. I straightened my hair for the first time in months, ate breakfast, washed up, dressed up, and headed to Kat's around 6:45 am. Kat drove (thanks buddy! I owe you! =) and we got Starbucks (I can feel the heat!) Went to Bosco and had a bit of trouble parking, lol... Yeah, it was all G though. Senior Seminar was lame. It was cool to see a lot of people again but the actual seminar was dumb. Oh well.. Kat, Pho, Joan, and I made the best of it. I saw big brah, Steven, and he made me sign his yearbook. I also saw some sexy guys but, eh, whatever. We did absolutely nothing productive at seminar, it was worthless. Next, Kat, Pho, Goan, and I went to Cerritos mall to eat some chickens and "carpe diem". Junior met us up over there and had lunch with us. There were a grip of SJ people at the mall, everywhere you look is our uniform! We went to all the department stores and Pho and Goan did their *ahem ahem* business. Kat and I left and went to Toys-R-Us to buy Pho a birthday gift (a little trouble parking there too, ahahaha jp!). Yeah, anyway, I hope she likes it! Now I'm here and I just put my culottes in the wash because Kat and I had an ice cream mishap in the car.
If you live in Southern California, you must agree with me that it is BLAZING HOT today. AHH, the steering wheel in my car was too hot to touch! Lol.. okay, well.. I have some projects to do for tomorrow. BYE.

SSX3 comes out today.. but it's not available till Wednesday.. either way, WHOOOOOO! I'm excited, I absolutely looooooooved SSX and SSX Tricky! Tricky, trick-tricky.. lol.
I'ts confirmed. I am officially a LOTR (Lord of the Rings) fan. I've watched The Fellowship about 5 times and I rented The Two Towers Saturday. I can't wait for the third one! EEEE!
Tomorrow is Senior Seminar @ St. John Bosco. Eh, I'm excited.. but not. I hope I have at least one person that I requested in my group. I also believe that it will be odd if I am in 45's group.. he's a group leader. EH. He and Lynette are leader partners and I requested Lynette (along with Soulmate, Pho, and Joan). Hopefully everything works out. We have to be @ SJB by 8 am and I'm carpooling with Soulmate. I'll guess I'll get to Cypress around 7 am and perhaps we will get Starbucks. We might even meet up with Phoebe in Buena Park/La Palma/Cypress (LOL).. but we couldn't discuss it because Pho wasn't at school today! LUCKY!
Kimba: Your eyes are a window to heaven. Your smile could heal a million souls. Your love completes my existence. Youre the only other half that makes me whole, your the only other half that makes me whole! Lol, I hope you feel better! Let's venture and purchase Simon and Garfunkel tickets!

Debut of KIWIN'S website yesterday at the weekly meeting. Hrm, yeah. I'm not going to say anything about the KIWIN'S situation. Lol...
Yesterday was an okay day. Last night was not fun. I hate blank people. Fill in the blank.
Last night, I realized something. Any moment in my life in which I feel sad, angry, and/or dejected is a waste of my time and life. I don't need to be around people that make me feel less than I am. I don't need others treating me as if I were lower than they are. I hate the fact that you made me question my self worth. I hate the fact that I let you and your pathetic life get to me. Don't take your shit out on me. If I were to stop doing all of the things that I do for you (the things I did because I wanted to and because I looked out for you) you would be no where. You cannot function on your own. You would be one of those species that would make themselves extinct due to their lack of productivity. It's simply a matter of principle. No one should ever feel down and out because of someone else or because of something someone else says. No one should ever question their self worth because of what someone else says.
It's hard to go home when you know it's no longer your save haven.
Damn. Last night was not a good night. Thanks to my fah-fah-fah-friends for being so supportive and willingness to listen to my ranting. "I love you's" to: Kat and Phoebe!
Finally, Friday has come! Half day.. ahwhoohoo! Bleh, I have mucho homework though:
H Physics [A]: Page 94-95 #s 89, 96, 92
Dance I [B]: Swing paper with visualizations, due Monday
Pre Cal [C]: For the first time.. NOTHING! =)
US Govt [D]: Group work and Political Cartoon paper, due Monday
Christian Voc [E]: Blah nothing.. just bring college stuff tomorrow
20th Cent Lit [F]: UC Personal Statement first draft due tomorrow! Yikes! And finish The Age of Innocence by tomorrow! AHHHHH

POO on the SAT / SAT on the POO
Well, hello all! Today.. was not the grandest of days (due to the SATs). Blah, I almost over slept. There was a grip of people taking them at Valley Christian. I saw a lot of SJ people. Hrm.. I think it was Kat, Tracy, Jeannette, Jeannette's sister, Cherilyn (sp?), Bonnie, Joan, etc. I know that Lynette and Liza also took it there as well, but I didn't see them. I also saw my fave bro in the whole wide world, Steven! First thing we talk about: John Mayer, what else? LOL. I love that guy with all my heart. Eh.. the tests were okay, I didn't know anyone in my room.. which was good so I could concentrate. The SATs bring down my day. I feel quite tired and sleepy for the rest of the day. Oh well, I'll just hit the sack early tonight!
I worked on the KIWIN'S website all day. I made an awesome graphic for the top portion of the layout. After I finished it, I was so overjoyed.. I forgot how good it felt to create something and show it to others. It actually made me consider having another website. If I did get one, I'd keep the old name (withstanding)..hopefully no one has taken it. =X
Matchooo's fam birthday party is tomorrow. My mom is making him a cake in the shape of a guitar, lol. He's turning 21.. he can finally drink (legally)! Ahahahhaa... the party is at his house which means I get the chance to bang the drums (hopelessly and without rhythm) again and to ball up. WHOO WHOO!
This computer (the old one) is getting all psycho again. It's not just the internet anymore, it's the whole computer. Ahhh I'm moving all my files onto disks so that if it crashes, it's semi-okay. Lol.. Arg.. I'm tired.. fare thee well!

SATs tomorrow. Oh joy.
That means right after I finish typing this, I have to study.. eat, take a shower.. study more.. and sleep as early as possible. Hopefully I'm in the same room as Kat or Tracy. Too bad Pho is taking her test at Nor-whack.
The annual SJ Jog-a-Thon was today! It was fun. We got free t-shirts this year! Yeah, but they made us wear them while we ran... lame.. ahaha. Gosh, after we ran, we had about an hour and a half to do absolutely nothing. Phoebe and I were so amped up to play games but hardly anyone wanted to play with us. Poo. Oh well. But Lynette and I did make up a new dance.. ahahahahha.. funny stuff.
Yeah, I think I should go study now because I didn't do all that great on my last SATs. Oh well... good luck to everyone taking their SATs tomorrow!

Yo.
Today is California's historic recall election. GO ROCK THE VOTE! Your vote makes a difference, even if you think one vote doesn't matter. The outcome of this election could forever shape the future of California, so if you're 18 years or older, reside in CA, and are registered.. GO ROCK THE VOTE!
Uh.. I'm going to Vegas again on the 25th. Wish my family luck that we find a suitable house.
Okay, so I've finished my CSU applications and my UC's (except for the personal statement =X). Ahh, I guess I picked my major.. not quite certain yet. The madness, the madness.
I don't really talk about my day in here. I think I'll go against the grain today and explain it.
Today was an okay day.. Went to school around 8 because we had a 9:10 day. Got a good parking spot and then I bought a Jamba Juice because they looked so tempting! Mwhaaha. In block D (US Govt) we had fake elections and the result was: YES on the recall, and the new governor would be Tom McClintock. Suprise suprise. Break was funny stuff. Kat, Phoebe, and I decided to go into the Library because we saw Mr. Bucko go in there. We were discussing how we would help him find whatever he needed when we got in there and right as we walked in, he walks right into us. LOL. I was being a fool (as usual) and sorta bolted out of the door to follow him and I see him turn around and laugh. fun fun funny..mwhahahaha. Oh geez, in block F (20th Cent. Lit) we switched seats.. and I was happy knowing that I wouldn't have to sit next to "SB" anymore.. and BAM, we end up getting seated next to each other AGAIN. Lucky me. Ah, it doesn't really bother me it's just at times, when I've had a semi-bad day and I get to that class.. she puts me over the top.. she's quite annoying. Block A (H Physics) with Mr. Bucko, nuff said. Ahahahah. The rest of my classes were normal, nothing interesting happened.
Hrm. Okay.. perhaps I will assemble my new computer now. TA DA! =)
I hope you have a nice day.

Hrm. So we didn't get the home yet in LV. Stupid drawing, I knew we wouldn't be called in the first eight names. It should be first come, first served.. not a drawing. Oh well, we're on the priority list now. I guess it's okay because we can look for more expensive homes from different builders now. I'm falling in love with all the Pardee Homes..
Due to this new information, I've made the decision to go to a Cal State instead of a UC. I don't think I'd want to try swinging the UC tuition + housing and a new home in LV. So it looks like I'm going to be a commuter for the next four years. Perhaps I'll just attend UNLV, I hear it's a pretty darn good school.. but hard to get into. More than likely I'll end up attending Cal Poly Pomona. And y'know what? That's fine with me. When vacation time comes, I'll have an awesome home in LV, Nevada to go to. Plus, I figure I might as well save my money for Med/Pharm school. What's the point in shelling out extra cash to go to a UC when I can simply get my B.S. from a perfectly qualified Cal State? If I went to Fullerton, I wouldn't even have to take the freeway to school.. lol. Dominguez.. eh, the 91 freeway is poo. Long Beach.. not even going to apply there.. haha. Hrm, so many decisions.
Mother says John Mayer is on SNL tonight. FARE THEE WELL!

Life, or Something Like It
PREPARE to read some things that you might not think are important.
The following contains MY thoughts, not exactly a way to live your life and certainly not what I'm trying to say. It's an opinion and everyone is entitled to one. Anyway, this is actually geared toward a certain someone.
Well. Today I was "blog stalking" as Laur would call it. As I read through all of these people's thoughts and feelings, it occurred to me.. life is good. It's a known fact that is always in the back of my mind, but sometimes people need to be reminded of that fact. Life is good. Often times, people complain about all the shit that is happening to them in their lives. I just feel like screaming at them! The things that you complain about, when you really think about it, is meaningless drama. There are people in this world who's goal in life is to have all the things that we were born into. I understand that a person might be frustrated in their life, but to say things that sound as if they have nothing good in their life.. it truly amazes me. I know, from experience, because I used to be one of those people that thought they had nothing to live for. I thought that my life was the worst and that if I died, it really wouldn't matter... nothing mattered. I don't know what it was, but something made me step back and think about all the great things in my life. It's not like I'm always peachy-keen and carefree, but I know that there is more to life... more coming my way.
These are a few good things that are often overshadowed by frustrated feelings:
(1) You have a family that loves and cares for you (although they might not always show it).
(2) You have a home, a place that shelters you from the major elements.
(3) People, whether they are friends or family, love and care for you and your well being.
(4) You're able to go to school. Some people aren't lucky enough to receive a formal education.
(5) Food is always on the table. You don't struggle for the day's meal.
(6) You have running hot and cold water, a toilet, electricity, a shower/bath.. etc.
(7) Access to a computer. Some people don't even know what a computer or the internet is.
(8) Luxuries such as a cd player, a television, a cell phone.. things of that sort.
This list could go on and on.
As I wrote that list, another thought came to my mind. Don't live with regret, don't live with hate, don't say things that you don't mean. Live like there would be no tomorrow and as if you would never see the person next to you again, because you might not. I don't know why, but last week I couldn't sleep because I kept thinking about my Lola (RIP). I kept thinking about the last time I saw her and I couldn't remember what I said to her. I started to cry and think about what my last words to her were. I couldn't remember if I kissed her when I saw her last, and I was frustrated because I did not get to see her before she went into surgery. I was just angry because I couldn't remember anything about the last time I saw her. I don't even know when it was. Then, a lot of old memories kept popping up into my mind about her. I regret not talking to her more, not being with her more, not making an effort to really know her. And if anyone know's me, this is why I hate the feeling of regret.
I do believe in a higher power, but I still don't know why she had to leave us so early. The situation made me question my faith, my life, and everything that I believed in. That was almost two years ago. Her 2 year death anniversary is coming up on November 20, 2003. Currently, I still don't know where I stand concerning religion. I guess her death prompted me to mature a bit quicker. I am the eldest female cousin on that side of my family and it was hard seeing my younger cousins have to deal with it. My relatives were all unstable at the time and I was unsure of what to do with myself and younger my cousins. It's also hard knowing that they won't experience her culinary expertise, her small out-of-the-blue gifts, her funny accent, all her unique traits.. ever again. I'm amazed that I made it through that experience. I had a pretty bad outlook on life immediately after I found out. But.. a few months after her death, I finally realized that all of our minute tasks and seemingly important events really don't matter. I realized all of the truly important things in my life. What matters is family. What matters is how you treat others. What matters is how you view your life. The few above paragraphs explain a little bit about how I view my life... now maybe you should re-evaluate yours.

This journal contain's random thoughts and at times, deep insights into my life and the lives of those around me. You aren't forced to read this so use your God-given common sense to choose whether or not you will return here. Enjoy your stay and feel free to leave comments anywhere you see fit. =)
OH, HELLO. The name's Angela. I also go by the alias' of Ang, G-La, Angeeewah and sometimes Jude. My date of birth is the second of January. I was born and raised in sunny Southern California and am still currently residing there. I attend an all-girls Catholic College-Prepatory school and no, that does not make me a lesbian (and if that thought immediately crossed your mind, please click the "X" at the top right hand of your screen).
OH, YES. The beach is grand. It's a beautiful place that I hope to live closer to as I get older. Food is grand. The harvesting, the preparation, the cooking, the presentation, and of course the taste of food, are all wonderful. From day one, food has been a calling to me and I hope to become a pastry chef in this lifetime. Family is grand. There are priorities in life and family comes first no matter what.
OH, NO. Ignorance, hypocrites, and close-mindedness are things that I wish this world could be free of.
OH, SEXY. Jude Law. He has talent, he is handsome, he's graceful, and not to mention.. that accent. John Mayer. Although he may seem somewhat "awkward" to some, he is quite the looker in my opinion. He also has a great songwriting and singing talent. Rocco DiSpirito. Not only is he Italian and sexy, he can cook. Boy, can he cook. From what I've seen and heard, he's quite the charmer. Jesse James of Monster Garage. Ohhh, this guy is the manly man- yet sweet guy inside type. He's a major mechanic and has accomplished a lot in his life. I love his show. Oh and hes from LBC! =)
OH, LINKS
