Thank you for the advice on my last entry. ♥
I went through almost all my old entries today. When I was reading them, I realized that most of the entries centered around my junior and senior year... which are both of my favorite years in high school. So for a majority of them I couldn't bring myself to delete them because I was laughing or smiling at all the different events that had happened to me. Embarrassing as they were, they made me feel good on the inside because I would remember the fun I had at the time. I did private entries that I found were too embarrassing, but felt like it was time to delete them just yet. I did delete entries that I felt were extremely irrelevant to me and I honestly feel a lot better that they are now gone.

Something that I found interesting was looking at the pictures that I had posted. Especially of the ones of me, I look different now! My features haven't really changed, but it's interesting to see the subtle changes that I made. Another thing that I saw was the change in how I wrote my entries. My older ones were are more "excited" and filled with emoticons. However, the entries this year are bit longer and I talk a lot more about my feelings. Interesting right?

I'll finish up going through my entries tomorrow. <3


So today I went to my grandma's house to pick the mini fridge that I will be bringing with me to UCLA. I'm a little mad at the fridge though because it punctured a hole in my car seat. ): But I am moving into UCLA next Saturday! So insane! I'm going to be a college girl. I'm going to be taking three classes this first quarter: Design Culture, Drawing, and History of... Southeastern Crossroads lol. I'm a little scared for drawing...since I can't draw. ;; I wish they gave me Color class instead of Drawing, but I have to wait until the next quarter.

I watched The Vampire Diaries today~ haha. I want to read the books though since it sounds interesting.

I've been listening to Pink all day!

This my new bebe that I picked when we were returning from Las Vegas. Her name is Pudding and she is 2 months old. ♥ She is really sweet and extremely playful. Pocket loves her and Pumpkin has kindly accepted her. Her fur is really soft and I love cuddling her in my arms.

It's really funny how different Pumpkin and Pudding are other than their difference in fur color and gender. Pudding is such a girl. She feels really comfortable being held and she LOVES LOVES stuffed animals! Everytime we let her loose in the house, she will always have my stuffed monkey or my little brother's stuffed horse in her mouth. She really likes it when others play with her.

Pumpkin is a different story. He is a lot more independent and doesn't care whether or not if we play with him. He always finds a way to entertain himself. Rather than "playing", he loves to explore new places and to find holes. He's also quite aggressive.

Pumpkin and Pudding are also on opposite sleeping schedules. For some reason, Pudding is more active at night while Pumpkin is more active during the day. So whenever I want to bring them into the house to play, I can only bring one in because the other is sleeping.

Also, Pudding is really big and fat. Dad is a bit confused about how tiny and scrawny Pumpkin is since he's older and is a male. (Females are supposed to be smaller). Mom think it's because Pudding has baby fat. I don't think that's the case though. I think Pudding just came from a big family... or Pumpkin came from a really small one. ^^ Haha.


In other neeeews, the band CDs are in! I have yet to pick up my copy. I really want to see how my cover turned out in print! <3 My band teacher sounds really happy about it though... from the text and Myspace status comment he left.

I look through the art of one of my friends I had met at UCLA. She's in the same major as me... and she's really good! She drawing skills are AMAZING! Honestly, everything in my portfolio pales in comparison. :'D I feel so lame right now. I knew my lack of technique and traditional art skills would bite me in the butt one day. I am going to fail drawing class in the Fall Quarter. ._.

I've been working on the icon requests over at [info]fairycoma. My hand hurts so much from clicking and cropping. CROP CLICK CLICK CLICK CROP CLICK CLICK CLICK RIGHT CLICK = me all day. I'm not used to making over 60 icons in one sitting. D: How in the world do other people mass produce that many icons... and still be able to post like... four times a week?!? How do you guys do it?!? I must have low icon stamina.

"
There goes my stamina guage!

CROP CLICK CLICK CLICK CROP CLICK CLICK CLICK RIGHT CLICK MOUSE BUTTON SMASH.

Zero.

Game Over!

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Hello everyone. ♥ I feel like I have been gone forever.

Since I my last entry, I haven't felt any different. I still feel the same or rather nothing at all. Actually, I've been very busy so my mind has been wondering about the place. I told you that when August comes I'll be busy again!

So what's new... I don't even now where to begin. Chayo came home, Orange County Fair, volunteering at the Health Fair for Janet Ngyuen...


My band teacher asked me to make the covers for the CDs this year. I'm really excited to see them come out. I hope everybody likes it. ♥ It's really nice that now more people IRL know that I do graphics and stuff. I feel really honored when they ask me to create things for them because they know that I can. I'll show the cover later. ♥

Did I mention Chayo came home? I'm really happy that she's back. I was able to see most of my friends from school last week and I haven't seen them in awhile. It feels so good to be with them again. Now we are planning on a trip to go to Downtown L.A in two weeks! I'm so excited!

I'm also addicted to this MMORPG called Perfect World. I play with my little brother and cousin. Usually I don't play alot of MMORPGs, but I happen to be really fond of this one. Good stuff.

Next week is my Orientation and I will be staying at UCLA for three days. After that I will be leaving to Las Vegas for another three days with my family and cousins. Gah. So excited.


I don't know what else to share, so I hope everyone is doing well and having a good week.

May tomorrow I'll go shopping... I need a new light sweater.

Oh wow! I haven't updated in awhile. I miss everyone!


My summer so far has been pretty bland and uneventful. All I do is bum around the house. It seems that everything that I have planned for summer happens in August. Next month is my orientation, my sister's wedding, and I go to Las Vegas with my cousins! My best friend is coming home this week from so maybe I can do some things with her before July is over.


Yesterday was my grandma's death anniversary. My cousin Jennier taught me this cool fortune telling thing that tells you have many kids you will have!--- And their gender. It was accurate on all my uncles, aunts, and my parents. It's really fun! Jennifer predicted that I'm going to have a son. There goes my dream of not wanting a child. XD I wish I could share it with all of you, but I need your hand to read. XD Maybe I will make a video so you all can do it yourself. :D


Today is my Novice moves-in-the-fields test for ice skating. I'm so scared. I didn't know it was my test today until my coach reminded me on Saturday! I thought it was next week. Coach Rebecca reassured me that I was ready and I'm going over to the rink in about 15 minutes to have extra practice. Wish me good luck!


I'm really addicted to this game called Plants VS Zombies. It's fabulous! <3


Take care everyone, I'll update later.

I'm currently having some money issues. I'm trying to save up to buy two new Canon camera lenses, but it seems like money is burning through my pockets. I haven't been spending my money on necessarily bad things. Just things like food, gas, and obligatory birthday gifts for people.

Although, today I did spend money on lipgloss. Hahaha. *__* I bought Bare Escentuals Buxom Lips in Dolly. It's pricey for the amount of lipgloss you get, but I'm out of my old one... so I had to buy it. x:




I'm getting this gloss in April next when I solve my cash problems.




So I counted my money today and in total I have $420. It is more than enough for the Canon 50mm f/1.8 lens, but hardly enough for the other lens that I want. I hope to get them for my half-sister's wedding since I'm her backup photography for the day.

I'm saving up every single penny that I could find! I have to reach my goal for that second lens (and April lipgloss). I'm searching for a job right now too. :/ I've only sent in an application for Aerie, but who knows when they'll call me back. I'm also applying for Sidecca since they are hiring and I'm sending in the application tomorrow. It's a little long though because they put in interview questions. Bleh. I hate this job searching crap.


And an old meme that has been floating everywhere and I felt like doing it.

List 10 of your favorite characters from different fandoms, and ask people to spot patterns in your choices, and if they're so inclined, to draw conclusions about you based on the patterns they've spotted.

#oo1. Sailor Mars/Rei Hino → BISHOUJO SENSHI SAILOR MOON
#oo2. Rue/Princess Kraehe & Princess Tutu → PRINCESS TUTU (I switch them from time to time so I put both)
#oo3. Ami Kawashima → TORADORA
#oo4. Asuka Langley Soryu → NEON GENESIS EVANGELION
#oo5. Misuzu Kamio → AIR
#oo6. Ariel → THE LITTLE MERMAID
#oo7. Amalthea → THE LAST UNICORN
#oo8. Popuri → HARVEST MOON
#oo9. Namine → KINGDOM HEARTS
#o10. Rina Touin → MERMAID MELODY PICHI PICHI PITCH


This was so hard to do since I haven't watched/played most of these series in awhile. And I don't really attach myself to characters very much. So it's a mix of old favorite characters and new ones.


Oh, I also just bought the book, The City of Ember. I saw the movie and thought it was pretty, but heard the book even better. O:
