  • snow.

    a promised blog to come shortly.

    i was stuck in the snow near LA where i was stranded in my car for 4 hours.

    it was definitely an experience i wouldn't forget.

    i guess i know where my graduate school application personal statement will come from.

  • Me, just me.

    Lately I have been in a whirlwind of drama/situations around me that I do not necessarily want to go through but have been affecting my mood lately. Bear with me, this may be a ton of ranting, but hey, this is what has been on my mind and I need to shed it somewhere.

    First.
    School has been driving me to the verge. Taking five classes is a lot more intense than I anticipated, but I know that if I want to enjoy my last quarter as a college student, more classes is necessary in this quarter. However, I did horribly on my last midterm and to be honest, I just want to pass this class (which has not been the case since I switched out of a science major). I was quite bummed out of the fact that switching out of my major I am still at the point of "barely surviving." Yeah, this one class is bad. Then my UWP as usual is on the verge of B (which is typical of me and English classes, never get A's). Nutrition and ETX should be fine (my only potential A's), and possibly an A for HDE 103 if I manage to pull off the final well. So I guess I'm looking at two A's, one A-, one B and one C (if I get lucky).

    Second.
    I have an issue where I run away from whereever I am confronted with problems. First off, I have been locked out of my house many times, there are days where people will deadbolt the door (I do not have the keys to the deadbolt because we usually just use this security code) and that pissed me off because all the girls living here know I do not have a key yet.

    My bestfriend who I have not talked to since I took my GREs back in September finally returns my call while I was driving down to SoCal to invite me to a party. And this is her biggest party of the weekend for her fraternity and she tells me two hours before it is happening. That made me very sad and very disappointed in her. I have tried many times to contact her, ask her to come out with me, but she has either just ignored my texts or said nothing much. And she invites me the last minute for something that is important to her. I'm sorry, but as a bestfriend, I really hope I mean more than that.

    I have lost another friend where she is working on her senior project or whatnot, and I keep trying to contact her to hang out but like usual she's forgotten about me somehow.

    I think either I need to find better friends or something needs to change.

  • Venice Beach

    So the other weekend my friend and I, well, he claimed it was a date, went to Venice Beach. We found lots of seashells, especially sand dollars. =] Sand dollars always make my world a happier place.

    There's just something about beaches. I currently reside in Northern Cal, which is limited in the beaches, so whenever I get a chance I'll drive away for hours just to go to a good beach. Perhaps its the ocean waves, the ocean breeze, the sand... the beach is somewhere that attracts everyone either as a family, a couple, or an individual. The day beaches become extinct will make me very sad.

    On the other hand, school has been school, what more can I say?

    But I did come across an interesting thought:

    People have told me they would take a bullet for me, of course my first response is "how sweet." Of course I'm grateful there are people willing to take a bullet for me... but now that I think about it, if they take a bullet for me (self-sacrifice), then they go to heaven. While I stay on earth..? I just wouldn't know how to think about the entire situation.

    Oh and one of the puppies have officially moved back home because of complications with the other family. She really loves being home to the extent that she gets scared for leaving the house (in fear that she might be sent back to the other place).

    I can't wait to go home....

  • Who

    A boy has been going after me lately, and it has caused some confusion in my life. I am typing this while I have been running high with a fever, yet my thoughts have been racing faster than I can comprehend.

    The boy I mentioned before has lost contact with me (which is pretty typical). Now this new "boy" in my life is different, almost crazy if you ask me.

    For one, he hates going to school but manages to get high grades (A's at time).

    Next off, he loves to play with Legos and has the ability to create random objects with various pieces. I have not seen that type of ability in a long time.

    He is semi-ADHD. He was never tested, so it is unfair to classify him as having certain characteristics, but he has the tendency to move around constantly. It is hard for him to stay in one place.

    He hates driving, he finds it hard to concentrate for long periods of time (similar to ADD I suppose).

    Recently he has picked up drinking, and finds females to be intimidating to talk to (mostly me) and so in order to talk to me he tries to stay inebriated.

    He is semi-OCD. After seeing him for the weekend, everytime he touches the dog he will wash his hands. He constantly brushes his teeth though not extreme but getting there.

    He has insomnia, he has trouble falling asleep and staying asleep.

    The subject on ex-girlfriend is very sensitive - most of his clothes were bought from her, and somehow he didn't think it was right for him to stay with her because she should get to know other guys, too. Perhaps commitment?

    Lastly, he never really liked his ex, apparently he did, but not to an extreme extend, but now he has a strong liking for another girl.

    Crazy?

  • Love that Hurts

    Recently a current boyfriend/kind of/not really (you know how it goes), told me he gets scared of what happens to me and who will take care of me. But given both our circumstances, we are not able to be together. We've talked about the relationship many times but none of the scenarios work out well.

    When he said that he still worries and that he does not know what will happen if he is not there to take care of me, and who will take care of me in place of him, it hurts me more than ever to hear him say that. Someone actually loves me so much that he still wants to make sure I am okay, and that he still cares, and he still puts me before everyone else while the world I live in is self-centered and self-focused.

    Maybe it's just me recently, but I honestly haven't felt the happiest lately, and a part of it comes with the fact that everyone honestly (I'm not saying its horrible or should be banished) only cares about themselves. I see it in so many of my friends, even those that care a ton about me, they honestly care about themselves first. It makes me sad...

    The classes I am taking lately just makes me think more and more about the culture I am in and everything that affects me, college is such a powerful place.
