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.
