Central Library

So, there's no school today. YAY? I still studied my butt off. Today, Chiara, Bernadette and Me went to the Central Library. Yup the one downtown. IT WAS SO AWESOME. The nicest library I've ever been to. =D

We planned to meet at this bus stop near my house around 9am. BUT SOMEONE *cough* Bernadette *cough* came at like 8:30am!! She called me and she was like, "I'm getting off the bus!" I was like, "WHAT?! I thought we were meeting at 9ish!?" When she called, I was still in my pajamas. Yupz. Plus I was taking care of Ellie. After I changed, I told me mom that I was going to walk down to the bus stop and bring Bernadette to my house. When I met up with Bernadette, we decided to wait for Chiara. I called her and she said that she was on her way. I was so impatient. LOL. She finally arrived. Her dad dropped her off and we walked back to my house. =D

They stayed outside for awhile. I brought Ellie out so that they could see her absolute cuteness! HAHA xD I was going in and out of the house. I was getting my bag, books, shoes... and yeah. rofl. It was a bit hectic. Around 9:40, my mom drove us to the libary. =D

When we arrived, the library was still closed. It opens at 10am. We got there a bit early. There was a bunch of people waiting outside. A mixture of hobos and normal people. Rofl~ My mom told us not to wander around too much. I told her we'd wait outside till the library opened. Then she drove off. About 2 mins later, she calls me and tells me to walk down the street because there was a nice garden there and another library entrance. On our way down there, I saw a starbucks. LOL. An opportunity to use the gift card Fenny gave me! <3>

The garden was so cool. The steps had all these different languages on the steps. xD There was even "math" language. I took a picture of that. I am so going to show Mr. Luu (math teacher) tommorrow! XD I also liked how there we trees all over. It was so nice and green. I felt like I could just sit under a tree and fall asleep. ^_^

Anyway, the first thing we did when we entered the library was go to the gift shop. LOL There were so many cool things in there! Chiara saw this really cool rainbow bracelet and bought it. I really liked it too and I bought one later (after we came back from lunch). ;P There were also these cool musical boxes. It played classical music. My favorite one was Edelwise! =D

After Chiara got her bracelet, we went upstairs to the teen section. Apparently, it's called "teen 'scape." xD cool name! Bernadette and I followed Chiara into the teen section. She knew the way. haha. She led us to this huge room. There were all these computers when we entered. I was like wow nice! Then we walked to the back of the room and there were these HUGE BEAN BAGS! OMGOSH It was so cool!!~~~~ I lay down on one and woahh I could've just fallen asleep~ xD
Then I saw a HUGE FLAT SCREEN TV in front of the bean bags!!! NICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~
It wasn't on though. Chiara said that they would usually play it. I guess it was too early in the morning. So they didn't play anything. ROFL. Plus, there were only like 7 people in the libary including the 3 of us. xD

After checking out the place, I went to a table and started to study. =) We studied until 11ish (almost noonish). Then, Yong and Rey came. Yupz. We studied a bit more and then we went out for lunch. Across the street was this undergroud food court. We went there for lunch yupz~ The guys got sushi, I was lazy and did not want to wait in line so I got pizza. LOL Chiara got McD and Bernadette got some mexican food. After we ate, the guys wanted frozen yogurt. We had to wait for them. Yeap. Yong had A LOT of toppings and every 5 seconds, we'd see some toppings drop off. It was really funny.

Yong took forever to finish his yogurt. The rest of us were waiting for him to finish it so that we could go back to the libary. When he FINALLY finished his yogurt, we went back to the library and I got the rainbow bracelet. =D Then we went upstairs and studied somemore.

We're NERDS!

When we walked in, the library was FULL of people. Ever computer was occupied. I was like wow....wow....wow~ haha. We went back to the same table and got back to work. About half an hour later, the TV was turned on and it started to play "Resident's Evil" Everyone got distracted. LOL I tried really hard to concentrate. I managed to finish 1/3 of US history chapter. =)

Around 3pm, I called my mom and asked her to pick us up. She said she'd arrive around 3:30pm. So I chilled on one of the giant bean bags with Chiara and talked. =) It was really nice to just chill haha. Yeap.

My mom called me when she arrived. We said byebye to the guys and went downstairs. xD My mom drove Chiara and Bernadette home. Muahaha I know where they live now!!! ;P I will stalk them! jk~jk~

Anyway, that was my day. Surprisingly, I was really tired. Studying really does suck energy out of you. LOL^_^

The library was so cool. I wanna go back there again next time! =P

1st Day of Autumn

Here I am in computer class again. I'm seriously bored. I iPod died on me in 4th period. I didn't even use it yet. Oh well.

Anyway, if I am not mistaken, today is the First Day of Autumn. If not, it was yesterday. lol It doesn't feel like autumn. It feels more like summer, but summer this year didn't reall feel like summer. It was cooler than usual.

Since I have so much time in computer class, I think I will use the time here to like change my blog skin. Maybe I'll change it to an autumn theme or like a car theme. LOLOL

Driving~ *CRASH*

One day, Waverly was happily driving a car when suddenly... *CRASH!!!!!!!!*

JK!!!!! That so did not happen!

I had my first driving lesson today! Yay! I only got to drive for like 15 minutes (kinda disappointing). Basically, I was at the park and I got to drive up and down this road. I wasn't nervous I was like super duper happy and excited. LOL

It was really cool. The car moves when I'm in the driver seat! HAHAhA SO COOL! Anyway, My dad was like holding onto the steering wheel. He didn't want me to crash into the cars parked on the side of the road. There were a lot of cars. It was kinda weird because there usually are no cars during the weekdays. But anyway, it was a lot of fun!

I also got my new glasses. Its the exact same kinda Vannessa Lam has... >.>" except mine is tinted lol. Yeapp... I'm not ever gona wear it to school. Only outside of school. =D

Yay! Today was coooool xD

Take a chill pill

My weekend was pretty chill. I was kinda tired, but I guess it was still "OK."

Saturday was SAT class at Young Nak. Today, Chiara, Bernadette and Byran joined us in the class. It was cool. I liked it, but I felt really tired after that class. My brain worked too hard. LOL jk~ Anyway, after class, Bernadette, Paula and I went to Dino Jr's and had lunch. We had chilli fries. Yummie. haha. My dad and bro picked me up when I was done with lunch. I had no choice but to go to the barber shop with them. It was really boring. I just sat there and waited for them. They have so little hair and it took so long.

We get home and I took a nap. I felt much better after waking up. A little cranky, but refreshed. hahaha. Then around 5:30pm, my family left home and we went to church. There was a potluck and some performance and games to play. The food was goooood. I just love this one tomato vegetable soup. I need to find out who made that soup and get the recipe. LOL The potluck ended around 9pm. I got home around 9:30pm and I started to do some homework. I think I finished around 11pm. Then I stayed up for about an hour playing the guitar until I felt like I was going to fall off my chair.

Sunday was an okay day. I was suppose to learn how to drive that day, but my mom ended up not taking me out to the park to teach me. >.>" She kept saying that there was a lot of cars because of the Dodger game. @($*%&)#% Stupid Dodger game!!!! =(

Monday, which is today, so far it is pretty good, kinda. I got to school today and went to this spot I hung out at every morning in Sophomore year. My friends were there hanging out, doing homework, studying and stuff like that. One of my friend grabs my hand and starts telling me about how she was going to be "doomed" in first period. I pulled my hand away and I stepped aside. Honestly, I didn't want to listen to her complains anymore. She needs to take a chill pill. Every single time I talk to her, it's about a person she dislikes, a class she hates, a teacher she hates, or about how horrible she is. >.>" I don't want her to drown me with all her problems. I used to feel bad for her, but now it is just getting to my nerves.

On Saturday, my mom was telling me to stay away from her and be careful. The reason she said that was because my mom gives her rides home sometimes. So she's heard some of the conversations we've had. My mom said that she keeps talking about negative things about everyone. So if she does that, I have to be careful because she may do that to me (which has already happened). So yeah.

After I pulled my hand away from her, she got up and gave me some attitude and moved away to the table in front of the one I was at. After that, I went to talk to another friend. I needed to give her some money. So I went over and when I was done, I started to talk to other people. My friend who was mad at me happened to sit right in front of where I was standing. She had a really angry face and she'd just drop her text books so that it would make really loud noises. Everyone ignored her. Lily noticed and I told her about what happened and about how I didn't want to listen to her complains. Lily just nodded her head in agreement because she was pretty sick of her complains too. Lily kept telling me she needs to calm down. I for one agree.

I mean if you over react once in a while I don't think people would mind. However, if you are like that ALL THE TIME... guess what?! It gets other people stressed out! =.=" So yeah... It does stresses me out and get me all tense when she tells me all these negative stuff. Its not like I don't have my problems already. Plus I don't public show people my problems. It's not written in my expression and actions. gosh. I only tell a couple of people my problems and this blog. LOL.

Anywayyy................

Later, I had a 50 states quiz in second period. I aced that test. Lol. Oh yeah, throughout the weekend, I would bring my map of America everywhere I went, even to church so that I could study it. =D

Third period was chill as usual. I graded and recorded third and fifth period's homework. It took me the whole period, but I was cool with it. Fourth period was awesome as usual. I always look forward to third and fourth period. =)

I think I am done writing now. yay!

In comp class & bored

So right now, like my last couple of posts, I am in computer class. It's boring. I just finished my work. Yupz. Anyway, I'm just going to write about some stuff that happened today.

This morning I woke up and did the usual routine. Wake up, shower, dry hair, etc. Right before I was about to dry my hair, Michelle Baek texts me and says she needs help on the AP US history essay that is basically due today at 2nd period. I didn't want to text so I called her and explained a bunch of stuff to her. She managed to finish and turn it on time. Yay!

1st period we had a vocab test. My teacher went in alphabetical order of last name. I was suppose to be one of the first few, but then I turned out to be one of the last few. The reason was because I signed into the class late so I ended up at the end of the roster. I was cool with it though, I just studied my vocab words all period. When it was almost my turn, the bell rang. I was like DAMN! T_T" I wanted to get my vocab words over with. My teacher told me to come back during nutrition. So after 2nd period, I went back and I totally aced it! xD

Anyway, after that I went next door to Luu's class. I was going to have him for 3rd period anyway, so I figured that I might as well just leave my stuff in his classroom while I go to the student store and get my locker combination. I forgot my locker combination. So I have been storing my two giant AP US history books in Yong's locker. Thanks man.

I waited in the looonnnnnggggggg line to get my locker combination. Yupz. The bell rang and I was still waiting in line. It was like 1 more person till me so I just waited. Luu doesn't care if I get to his class late anyway. I was his service student, not student (for that period at least). LOL
While I was waiting in line, I noticed that the girl (I think freshman) in front of me, had no eyebrows. It looked really weird. I kept wondering if she shaved it off. There were two girls who lined up behind me too. They kept talking about how they wanted to get pregnant. o.o" It was a very disturbing conversation. I finally got my locker and took my sweet time walking to Luu's class. hahahaha

During 3rd period, I took roll, and record grades and then read chapter 4 of AP US History. Today, Luu gave his class a test. About 10minutes into the test, I noticed that one of my friends in that class was missing. So I asked Luu where she was. He told me that she had checked out. =( so sad. Anyway, whenever someone checks out of a class, the teacher has to highlight their name and write down the date they checked out and the class they transfered to.

About 5minutes later, Luu comes up to me again and told me he wanted another student out of his class. He pointed at the seating chart again and this time it was Jordon Arroyo. Another one of my former classmates (for AP Biology). I looked at Jordan and he was just sitting there. He didn't even try to do his test. I guess it was expected of him. After all he got like a D or F in AP Bio. I don't remember which but yeah.

Me, "He was in my AP Bio class." (whisper)

Luu was about to laugh as if it was some kind of joke, "Really?" (also in whisper, out whole convo was whispers)

He started writing down Jordan's name and birthday.

Me, "Yeahh. He got a D or something."

Luu, "But that's not math."

Me, "Yeahh, I know but you know.. it connects."

Luu rolls his eyes and says, "Take this to Salcido (counselor) tell her that I want him out of my class and I am curious to what he got for Algebra 2."

Me, "okayyy."

I go down to the office and Salcido was talking to a student. I waited for a while and when she was done I told her about how Luu wanted Jordan out.

Me, "Ms. Salcido, Mr Luu wants this student out of his class."
I hand her the paper.

Salcido, "Let's see."

Me, "Oh, and he wants to know what his grades were for Algebra 2 too."

Salcido searches his name in the computer and writes down the grade. It was a D and C. =/
Then she wrote on the paper, "Need to see Salcido."

I ran back to class, but the bell had rang and Jordan was gone. So, I just gave the paper to Luu. Then I saw Franky who was just about to walk out. I ask him if he knew where Jordan's 4th period was. How fortunate for Luu, Franky had next period with Jordan. So Luu was like, "Tell him his counselor needs to see him."

Then, it was my period. Calculus. Yay! Not really. LOL

Anyway, after that nothing much happened. Laterz

Day 1 w/ Luu

I'm in computer class right now. I finished all my work the day before! woohoo!

I really like servicing for Luu, even though it has only been day 1. xD I don't have to do anything. I just sit at the back and do homework. Luu told me that I won't have any work till the end of the week.

So I just sat at the back of the classroom and did AP English homework. I really liked doing the homework it was so interesting. I liked reading the book and answering some of the challenging questions. It just made that period not boring. YAY!

In the middle of class, Luu came up to me and asked me if my counselor Ms. Salcido was busy right now. I told him probably not and then I asked why? Then he pointed at this one dude. I was like who?! Then he looked at his seating chart and pointed at Tyler Smith's name. He looked kinda pissed and annoyed.

I asked why and Luu said, "I want him out!"

I looked at Tyler and he was sleeping.

Then I was like, "He's like that in most of his classes."

Luu, "I want him out!"

He was sooo annoyed. Then he walked back to the front of the classroom and continued teaching. Throughout class, I noticed that he's just lay there and occasionally raise his head to look at something. Other than that, he was totally slacking. I felt bad for him because Tyler was my classmate in 9th grade. He was a pretty good student. Not so much anymore though, I heard that ever since he joined the football team his grades had been dropping.

The period ends and Luu walks to the back of the classroom and tells me that Tyler is just annoying him. Then I told Luu that Tyler was on the football team. Luu had this really sarcastic laugh and was like, "Not when I am done with him!" I agreed with him. "I am doing him a FAVOR!" I also agreed with that, since footballers needed a minimum GPA of like 2.0 or something like that. I don't know I'm not an athlete.

Yupz~

Also, I fixed Mr. Luu's shaking table problem it was SOOOOO annoying. I swear I wanted to kick the table because while I was doing my homework I couldn't do it without the table wobbling. So I was like, "Okay, I have to fix this." I got some random piece of paper and put it under the table. Yay~ problem solved~ I am a genius! MUAHAHA

After that was Calculus with Luu. I didn't have to go anywhere except move to the front! FRONT ROW SEAT! CHEYYAAA =D

After that was Lunch. I didn't want to go to the GEAR UP meeting. I was too lazy and annoyed by it. Yupz~ So I just stayed in Luu's class. It is way cooler. A-Bao and Anagaby stayed in there with me. Mr. Yom came in like about 5mins after. First thing Yom said was, "I keep throwing up!" I was like O_O" Yom said that it usually happens to him every 6months. Then he took out his food and gave Anagaby each his sandwich. He told us he couldn't eat. >.< So we ate the sandwich for him. Luu and Yom talked about their math classes, about how they hate the Algebra classes, students, Tyler Smith, kicking students out blablabla~ lol

It was cool~ xD

After that, bell rang and I had to go to 5th period, which is this class. lol xD

Changed another class

Well, if you've read my last post, you'll know that I have changed my classes! YAY! I thought it was perfect. I thought... until I found out that band class was a wind pipe class >.>" They play flutes, clarinets stuff like that.

So, in 3rd period, the teacher was passing around the parts where you blow into the flutes just so we knew what it was like to "play" the flute. I thought it was really nasty even though sanitizers were sprayed on it every time a person was done using it. I watched the people before me play the flute and I just had this expression of disgust on my face. Nikki kept laughing at me. Seriously, I don't really think it is funny. That is so gross. When it got to my turn, I was very hesitant. I had to do it because everyone and the teacher was staring at me. >.>"

The flute wasn't that bad. You just put it under your lower lip and blow across not into it. The clarinet was different. You had to put it into your mouth and bite down on it. I saw that and I was like O.O!!!! I so do not want that in my mouth!!! So I hoped really hard that the bell would ring before it got to my turn. THANK GOD IT DID!!!! It was just 1 person away from being my turn. Ewwwwww

Anyway, my next class was Mr. Luu. During class, he told us that he needed service students. I raised my hand very excitedly and waved it all around even though he was right in front of me and said that I'd do it! Then Mr. Luu was like, "We'll talk later~"

So after class, I was like, "Mr. Luu!! Do you want me to be your service student?"

GPA Killer, "Sure, just go to your counsellor and tell her you want me for service. She knows that I need service students."

Friend interupts, "Isn't service only for seniors?!"

GPA Killer (sounds annoyed), "It's a new administration~ Just play dumb and tell them you want me for service!"

LOLOLOLOL

Me, "OOOOKkkkayyy~"

So during lunch, which happens to be right after Luu's class, I went to the office with Joey to pick up a slip so that I could change my class. I owe Joey even more now, instead of doing 1 week. I have to do 2 weeks of throwing away her trash. I still think it is worth it. I mean c'mon it is so damn hard to get to the counselor and it is Mr. Luu!! Woooo awesomest teacher ever!! xD

hahaha... so yeah.. I got it changed this is my permanant most perfect schedule ever....

Period 1- AP English Language - Mr. De Pauw
Period 2- AP U.S. History - Mr. Wong
Period 3- Service Math Analysis - Mr. Luu
Period 4- AP Calculus - Mr. Luu
Period 5- Computers - Mr Gonzales
Period 6- Academic Deacthlon - Ms. Kwan

How I got my classes

How I got my classes changed is kind of a funny story. Kind of~ Apparently my dad laughed at it... soooo yeah! LOL

This is going to be short and simple.

I have been bugging my counselor since last Thursday. Anyway, She summoned me out on Thursday and said that the class I wanted was full. She told me to go get a note from the teacher and she'd put me in the class. So that was exactly what I did. I went to the teacher and begged him to write me a note. He wrote it! I brought it back to my counselor and she told me to leave. >.>"

So I went back the next day. Guess whhatt? She told me to leave again! So this time I left the note with her. I think she ignored it, as usual. I got really pissed that she didn't summon me out and kept telling me to leave.

During lunch, I found out that Joey was my counselor's service student. I was so freaking happy. I asked her to find my note and summon me out of my class during 6th period so that I could see my counselor. But she told me I had to throw her trash away for her during nutrition and lunch for a week. Without any hesitation I said YES YES YES! LOL

That was what Joey did for me. She summoned me out and I went to my counselor. The class was still full. So, what she did was send me to the Assistant Principle. I had to wait for him for about 45 mins and when he was finally not busy, he put me into the class! XD

THANK YOU JOEY! <3

I was so happy. Yes. That totally made my day =)

Day 1

Okay... right now, I'm in computer class. I've finished my work and the teacher said that we can use the internet. So here I am. Lol

Now I shall blog about Day 1. It was a pretty hectic day. My mom dropped Katie and me off at the front gate and we went to these boards set up outside the school. I looked for my name and I was assigned to Room 214 for 1st period. After that, I went to look for my counselor but she was busy. If you've read my last post, you'll know that I want to change my 1st and 3rd period. Yup. Anyway, I figured that it's okay. She'll summon me out and all. So I didn't mind (at first) that she was busy and didn't want to see me.

Fast forward to when the bell had rung. I walked to my 1st period and I guess what? I went into the wrong room! I went into 204 instead of 214. >.>" I am so smart. I went into Mchammer's class instead of Kelley's. What's even more crazy was that after I realized that I was in the wrong class, Mchammer wouldn't let me out of her class so that I could go to my 1st period. How nice of her. =.=" So I sat in the wrong class for the whole period listening to her talk. I think she's a bit crazy.

Anyway, 2nd period was Mr. Wong's AP US class. I walked to his class then walked back to my first period (the RIGHT one) so that I could get this yellow student sign in slip that all my teachers had to sign. I got that and went back to Wong's class. I liked that class. It reminded me of all the good AP Euro times. hahaha. Yupz. I had Wong for AP European History when I was a freshman. It was an awesome class. Enough of side tracking. So Wong introduces himself and everything and he started to hand out text books. We were also assigned homework already - Read Chapter 2 and test this coming Monday. Crazy.

Next was nutrition, it was back to hanging out with my friends. Lily, Phan, Dinh, Nikki, Ivan, Yong, Diane, Jenny and Joey. ;P I missed them. =D I didn't eat because I wasn't hungry, so I gave my lunch ticket to Yong.


3rd period was AP English Language class with Mrs. Kennedy. From what I've heard, she's a crazy strict teacher. Turns out she IS strict but really nice too. I really want to stay in her class but then it would fit into the schedule I want. Kennedy is like sooooo cool. She's worked with like Apple, Microsoft, AOL, Disneyland and more that I don't remember. She designed websites and stuff for the companies. She's also started her own business before. I was thinking omg that is so cool! She handed out textbooks and it was smaller than most textbooks, but DANNGGG IT WAS SO HEAVY!!!!!

4th period was AP Calculus AB with my favorite GPA killer Mr. Luu! =D He handed out the shiny Calculus books that I have seen the Junior's last year carry around. Yup. Now it's my turn! ;P I sat in the very very very front! Yup! Not in the front and center though. I didn't want to sit in the center because there was a pile of books and I wouldn't be able to see anything if I sat there. So, I sat on the seat beside it. xD Luu scared the class telling us about how he is the GPA killer of the school. What's really funny about Luu is that he's "lazy". I was like, "Mr. Luu are you going to sign our paper or do we sign in ourselves like last year?" ( I meant the yellow student sign in sheet and I had Luu in my sophmore year for Math Analysis) He looked at my paper and thought for a while then he was like, "Nahhh~ just sign it yourselves~ I'm too lazzyy~" LOL So we all signed the paper ourselves. Hahahaha. Oh yeah, Luu scared us by saying we had a test too. Turns out it was just a worksheet. =D Homework. It was easy. Just a review of Math Analysis.

Next was lunch! Time toooooo eaaatt. I was hungry. I did not eat breakfast or nutrition. But you know what I gave it to Yong. LOL so I had no food. Fortunately, Fenny and YuQi had given me some Famous Amos cookies and sweets in the morning. So I ate that, with milk of course. Cookies would not be complete without cookies. hahaha

5th period which is the period I am in now. Computers. The first thing I thought of when I walked into this room was, "OMG IT IS SO HOT!" Apparently, the air-cond was not working. So yeah... We were assigned seats in computer class unlike all my other class which had free-seating. I was so lucky. I was assigned to a computer that did not work. LOL but it's okay, it works now

6th period, it was Academic Decathlon. Ms. Cajina was sub-ing for Ms. Kwan. Kwan is still on maternity leave. She had a baby girl named Alyssa Luc! She'll be back in 2 weeks. So Brian and I basically took charge since we knew what to do. First thing we did was Impromptus. I got to be one of the judges and Brian (even though not a judge) was the critic. haha. We just wanted to give the newbies a feel on what we were going to be doing. There was also some dude named Kennedy who was claimed he was "put in the class without being asked". I think he's lying because the counselor will not put just ANYONE in AcaDeca. You actually have to request for it. He was really annoying he kept talking when people we doing the impromptus. >.>" I wanted to yell at him and tell him to shut up but I didn't know him well enough to do so. Cajina kept telling him to be quiet be he kept talking anyway. Also, he didn't know if he wanted to stay in AcaDeca. Brian and I were really annoyed because we had to make copies of the materials for him if he wanted to stay and he was all "fickle" about it. I say he might as well get out. Seriously, he won't survive. He even told the whole class that he was a bad student. AcaDeca is all about self-studying, self-motivation and teamwork. And if we have a weak-link I don't think we'll get to state finals! GRRRR. And that's what we're totally aiming for!

Anyway, after that, school ended.
HOME TIME! =D
I went home and yeah.. I chilled...
then did some homework =D,
then practiced playing guitar and yeah! ;P

My first day! There you have it. I'll think about blogging about my 2nd day. Lol.

Will try to blog abt 1st Day ASAP

So school started on Wednesday! Yay! I am so glad I am back in school. So, it's Junior year. Crazy year. Today is my second day and there's so much work already.

I will try to blog about my first day ASAP, maybe I'll do that in computer class.

Anyway, these are the classes I got assigned to:

1st - Drawing - Kelley (never met her.... I never went to 1st period. LOL)
2nd - AP US History - Wong (Hardest Teacher in the entire school)
3rd - AP Eng Lang - Kennedy (Kinda crazy but cool~)
4th - AP Calc AB - Luu (aka GPA Killer)
5th - Computers - Gonzalez (super chill~)
6th - Academic Decathlon - Kwan (Mama Kwan!)

I'm going to change my 1st and 3rd period though. I've been trying to change it since last Thursday! GOSH! I want to change my 1st period to AP Eng Lang with De Pauw and 3rd period to Jazz Band with Santos (that way I can practice playing the guitar and piano!)

After tomorrow, my classes should be PERFECT! <3 I will have all the classes I want with the teachers I like! Woohoo. My friends say I am crazy to love school.
Maybe I am, a bit, a teeny tiny bit. ;P

Till the next post! Baibai~ =3

3 in 1

So for the past 2 days and today, I had to be mommie, daddie, and jiejie. My parents went to a retreat and stayed over.

My parents asked my grandma to "babysit" us. She didn't really babysit us. It was more like she was just around and I took care of everything else. She usually lives in a temple and works there as a housekeeper. She insisted on doing the dishes, which no one argued over. lol.

The first day, we were okay. Ellie was really playful and hyper. She didn't really want to eat her food either. So, I had a hard time getting her to eat her food! She even woke up 2am in the morning and played for 2 hours before going back to sleep. Then, she woke up around 6am. @_@

I cooked lunch and dinner too. Everyone helped themselves to breakfast (except Ellie, duh. I fed her. Lol). Anyway, I was sleep deprived after Day 1. I didn't really get sleep. Even if I was "sleeping" I wasn't fully asleep.

My parents called to check up on us. I'd put them on loud speaker so that Ellie could hear them and she'd say, "Mama, Papa" whenever she heard their voices. Cute xD

My brother and sisters took care of themselves. They watched movies, played their computer games, ate when they were hungry. They were totally independant. Its just that sometimes I have to scold them to do thing like take their showers or like clean some mess up or help take care of Ellie for like 5mins while I do something real quick.

Day 2, everything was a bit better. Ellie ate more, slept longer and she pooped. <>.>" See, this is how I do the laundry. White clothes with white clothes, Colored with colored, Dark with dark. Done washing go into dryer and then fold.

My grandma is so redundant and separates it into white guy clothes, white girl underwear, colored girl clothes, etc. you get what I mean. She's like no no, you can't put girl and guy clothes together. You can't wash and fold boy clothes. OMG who cares! They're ALL DIRTY CLOTHES. They're all going into the washing machine to get cleaned and then dryer and then ONE person folds it, ME. So no matter how much she separates it, I'm still going to be folding everything. I do laundry all the time. =.="

Ellie slept through the night this time. That was good, but I still woke up 2 or 3 am and checked on her and made sure she was okay even though I slept right next to her.

Day 3, Ellie woke up around 7am. Good time. I wake up around that time too. I was too lazy to get up, so Ellie was crawling on me, walking around, playing with her toys and flipping through her books. She ate her food and was a good baby, pooped twice and took a long nap. She just woke up btw. Lol.

My bro was so nice today. He prepared lunch. Hotdogs. haha. He's cool like that. I totally appreciate him doing that. lol. I guess it was a satisfying lunch. lol =) Ellie sat with us on her high chair and watched Sesame Street. She really liked it. hahaha.

My mom called today and told us that they'd come home around 6 and take us out for dinner. Yay. I don't have to cook or eat my grandma's cooking. LOL

Annnddd, I end here. =D

Not a boring day

Okay, so this morning I went to school because I had an Acadeca class. It starts at 9am (happy Adrian?! LOL) but I went a bit earlier so that I could go see my counselor. I want to drop my AP Chemistry and check to make sure I have the classes and teachers I want. =D

Turns out, I have everything I want except the AP English Language, but my counselor was so nice to me and helped me drop my AP Chem and told me to come back on the first day of school and she'd help put in the AP English class I wanted. Happy <3

Acadeca was cool. We basically studied 2 hrs and talked and fooled around the last hour. haha. Nothing much to say there but basically everyone had a good time studying, dicussing ;P being realy nerds and dorks.. hahaha.

Lastly, I went to FongYi's house and it just made my whole day because Sammy taught me how to play the guitar! I learned the C, G, D, A chord and E minor chord. <3>

At first (meaning a few weeks ago), I didn't want to bring the guitar home, but after I started learning how to play Amazing Grace, I just didn't want to let go of the guitar. I just HAD TO learn how to play the song! So, I told Sammy, "I want to bring it home!" hahaha I was so happy ^_^

Thank you so much Sammy. I totally feel like learning the guitar is redeaming my musical self. =) That's another story, which I may post tommorrow or whenever I have the time and feel like it. Hehe..

NEW MONITOR

"It only took two weeks" - I quote Adrian. LOL

Yes, it only took 2 weeks for my new monitor to arrive!!! FINALLY!!!! I had to use my bro's computer and he'd always kick me off the computer! >=O But it's okay. I have my precious new monitor now. HE HE HE *evil laugh* LOL jkjk~

Anyway, I'm glad I have the monitor now, because I'll totally need it for school. ^_^

It's basically the same size as my last monitor. Same color. Not the same brand. LOL I don't know what my last monitor's brand was, but this one is Acer. =D

*hugs my monitor* YAY!

Weird weather

I woke up today expecting another hot hot hot day. I guess it isn't hot anymore. So the first noticeable thing was that it wasn't as hot. Second, the sky was like grey. (Lily's favourite weather) Third, there was ash all over my backyard. I walked out and i was like "WOAH" there was all these little black specks on the ground and grass. O_O"

This is reminds me of the time I went camping with Michelle, Lena, Binh... at Malibu. There was a mountain fire nearby so we had to leave like the very next day. Even though we stayed over night, ironically, it wasn't even 24hours! The reason was because, we arrived at Malibu around 9pm at night and set up our tents and blabla... the very next day around 2pm we had to leave. The park rangers were closing the park because of HORRIBLE air quality. We didn't want to leave but of course we had no choice at all. I remember when I got home and blew my nose on the tissue, all these black stuff came out along with my boogers. That was when I realized how serious it was.

Yup.
