Mike & Justin.

You know who I really miss…?

Mike & Justin.

They were always such a blast to hang out with. That Christmas was one of the best because of them since I haven’t seen them in forever. We were always laughing and playing games, Justin’s Wii. I know the others might not agree with me but I enjoyed that Christmas. I was happy that day.

I know Mike can be mean sometimes, but you’ll always know that there’s a sensitive, sweet guy in there. He’s always making people laugh. *sigh* Mr. Walk to Remember. Haha.

Today, at tito Roland’s birthday party, I just hung out with Mike the whole time. Just talking and catching up. I haven’t seen or spent time with Mike since my birthday, and I BARELY spent time with him on my birthday since he came late. :(



I honestly didn’t expect him to walk up to me and start talking to me. I guess… at every party I feel like “Oh. He’s too cool. He wouldn’t talk to me.” But he did. He lives such an interesting life.

We talked about our plans and what we’ve been up to. He told me of his San Fran trip with choir people and how he slept in his car. I told him of how I was about to go to San Fran but things didn’t work out. We talked about movies and such. His favorite part in Knocked Up was when the guys ate shrooms and they were in the hotel room when Pete stuck his fist into his mouth and said “It tastes like rainbow!” lol.

It’s awesome that he’s gotten into tennis, just like most of the cousins (Justin, Gevie, Sandy, Anty, Me). The way he talked, I feel like Mike will beat my ass in tennis, even though I’ve been playing longer. He said that he started playing the beginning of this year and that he’s been playing every other day, which is awesome. Poor Mike’s leg was messed up so he hasn’t played in a while. Poor cripple. He’s “addicted” to tennis. :P

We played badminton on the street for a bit. “It’s a LOT different than tennis.” He said. lol. He sucked but I guess it was because of his leg. :/

I swear that boy is a frickin chimney. He just did NOT stop smoking. He said that he smokes a pack a day. :/ It made me wonder how the heck he could play tennis when he can’t get ANY oxygen. He said that he even smokes while playing sometimes. Whoa dang.

Mike wanted to play tennis on the Wii. We first played Rockband. Mr. MMDrummerboy was on the drums of course. Kevin was on the guitar. And the jerks stuck me with the mic. Some of the songs, I didn’t even know how they went and even with the lyrics there, it was still hard! X[ But thank goodness they started choosing songs that I knew. Like Say it Ain’t So and Maps. <3 It was really fun. Sadly, Mike, who owns a set of drums, didn’t do so well on the drums. LOL. STILL fun though. My mom kept coming by saying “Let’s go!” and I would reply with “One more song! XD” I said that 2 times. hehehe. Mom came by again wanting to go home. “Wait. One tennis game! XD”

So we stopped playing Rockband and I played a tennis match with Mike. I, of course, beat his noob ass! Hee hee hee. “Cheater!” is what he would say every time he lost a point. :P I won 3-1. :) Then I had to leave. I hugged him and said goodbye.

It was really nice spending time with him. I missed him.

Justin! I haven’t seen you since my birthday, either! I think it was 2 weeks ago, the last time I saw him since my birthday. There was a party at his house because his mom was going to the PI with nanay. At first I just hung out with Chris in the living room when I heard Justin leave his room to take a shower. I decided that I wanted to scare him so I hid. I waited and waited and DAMN does that boy take long showers! I was hiding behind his door for like 30 minutes! I heard him come out of the bathroom and I prepared myself. He walked in and I screamed “BOOOOOOOOOO!” and he continued walking and just stared at me like I was crazy. -_-
“You didn’t get scared!?”
“I don’t get scared…”
“But I waited for like… 30 minutes! It’s not fair!”
Hahaha.

So I chatted with him for a bit, asking him what he planned on doing next semester. He let me draw with his tablet, only making me want one of my own even more! X[ It was fun. We started watching Freaks and Geeks. I only kind of remember watching it as a child. Justin kept talking about a movie called Grandma’s Boy where pretty much everyone from Freaks and Geeks were in it. Don’t remember that movie a t all… Freaks and Geeks was pretty funny, pretty good. Justin started burning the show for me but dang it I had to leave because we were going to the airport. I asked him if he could burn all of them for me but he just told me to download it. -_- Jerk. I liked spending time with him that day…

I remember in like freshman year we were tennis partners or something. I’m not really sure. But we kind of bonded in that way. But then I remember that we were playing a tournament with the whole class and I made us lose. You were so angry that you threw your racket on the ground. After that you didn’t speak to me… and that really hurt. It was so long ago but yeah… It was just a game you know… Then I got a new partner and I played much better and we had another tournament and we made it almost to the top and you were like “How come NOW you play better?” well it was because I wasn’t afraid of my partner because he wouldn’t get mad if I missed a shot. :P I’m not really sure what brought this up but I guess it was this… we had a chance to bond again as cousins and you let me down.

Ok well past is past and I was really glad that you started talking to me again during our junior year. It was fun talking to you about Ms. Watt and how much we hated her and how she hated us and stuff like that. And how much we LOATHED that STUPID summer reading of Into the Wild. Then how we had to read the book all over again… CHAPTER by CHAPTER analyzing every frickin line!!! The madness of it all! And annotating! We always had to annotate all those frickin papers! But hey. At least you passed the AP test. Then those good ol’ times in APUSH and how we brought our Pokemon cards during the last days of school. Oh and the marshmallow pop corn! :) Then there was Spanish 3 but I don’t think we talked much in that class. Lol. I just remember you copying my homework every once in a while. Sorry about the whole top ramen hair thing. But it was true!

Senior year. I miss hanging out with you in APES, playing cards with Anthony and Allen, telling each other stories and stuff like that. Like how nanay would try to escape my house. And you would always suggest some good music to me. Thanks for that. :) Then there was you making fun of Anthony any chance you got. Those were some good times. Then we graduated and we never heard from you again. Well not really but I mean geez, I wanted at least one picture with you when we graduated. :/

Yeah. I miss those guys. I really do.

Final Friday of Freedom.

My day started off with an eye exam in Pasadena. It took about 2 hours. I’m getting new glasses because my insurance doesn’t cover new contacts. :( *sigh* I suppose I’ll get contacts next year or something.

After my appointment, I picked up Ron since I was already in his area. Let’s see. We went to Target, me to print out some pictures and Ron to buy a lock for his locker at the gym. We picked up Jess and went back to my place.

We played a bit o ping pong on the long table. Can’t believe how tiring ping pong can be. lol.

They went through ALL the music on my computer and Jess painted Ron’s nails pink. HOT metallic pink, to be exact. lol. Just what he wanted. That pink lover. :P


Fun fun! :D


Jess started to fix my nails and I started to draw on Ron’s arm. It started with just a banana-monkey but Ron wanted more. So I made a nice chain. :P



As Jess was cleaning my nails, she cut too deep and my thumb started bleeding. And it continued to bleed… and bleed… lol. It’s ok Jess. It’s healing up nicely. I didn’t really want her to finish fixing my nails after that incident. So only one of my hands has nice nails, while the other… not so much. Haha. I hope no one notices.

Ron tried to draw on me as well, but he horribly failed. Jess had to take over. I think she did a nice job. :) Nice and artsy. Sadly, Jess didn’t finish it.



Jean came over and we went out to buy some drinks. Before we left the house I was like “Mommy! Look! We painted Ron’s nails! XD They’re pink!” haha. This only confirmed my mom’s suspicions that Ron is gay. Hee hee hee. Probably, when she heard that, she thought to herself “I knew it! I freaking knew it!” lol. Anyways, we went back to Target because the lock Ron bought was too small and I wanted to pick up my pictures. At Super A, Jess and I were trying to get out since, for some reason, Super A chains up the lines that aren’t in use so that people can’t get out. I tried to squeeze through the turnstile and I got stuck. The bag boy was laughing at me and this guy that wanted to get in stood there, annoyed. :( It was funny though.


Bat mobile outside of Super A. :P

We went back to my house and started up a movie, Black Knight. Jess was like “Wow! Finally, a movie that Ron HASN’T seen.” :P We ate pizza & ice cream. :’d Yummeh.

Lesh see… After the movie, we started filming our music video for the Ding Dong Song by Gunther. We copied bits and pieces from the original music video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbk6kExKf2Q). I’ll only show you the video if I want to, or if you ask me. I do NOT want to post it up publicly. Too embarrassing. X[ But here’s a picture from the video.

Jean was just TOO hilarious in the video. G’job Jean. :)


We filmed for about 2 hours, maybe more. It was SO fun. We were cracking up so bad. It was really hard to keep a straight face, I swear. And my scene, it took FOREVER! Maybe 10 or more tries. I just couldn’t remember the damn lines. And it was SO easy too! “You tease me. Oh please me. I want you to be my lovetoy. Come near me. Don’t fear me. I just can’t get enough of you boy.” I mean, how easy is that!? We had to change angles multiple times because I couldn’t say the whole thing in one take. -_-
Fracking guys “Stef! Be sexy!”
“I don’t KNOW how to be sexy!”
“Look!” *grabs SpongeBob toy *“Pretend to seduce SpongeBob!”
-_-
Jess did a pretty dang good job, though. It only took her 3 tries.

I swear. Pretty much EVERYONE I showed it to, their reactions were "wow." -_- For the last time I'm not naked! >:[ But I'm glad that everyone thought it was funny. Me so happy. But I'm still very much embarrassed. XP

After filming, we took a break. Jess started drawing on Jean and I continued drawing on Ron. Here you go. I think I did a pretty good job. lol.


Haha! Jean in the back. :P



Ice cream. Nicely done, Jess.



Pwetty stars.



He didn’t know I was drawing Itachi(his fav) for him because he was half asleep. Psh.



And SINCE he was half asleep, I drew on his nails. :)



My AWESOME dragon! XD At first he kept complaining “It looks like a worm!” Jerk.



He also wanted a fairy. So I found one online of Sasuke or Emosuke as Ron calls him. :P



The phrase that was stuck in our heads by the end of the night. -_-


When we finished drawing, we started a game of Life: Pirates of the Caribbean. We were all so sure that Jess was gonna win since she had Jack Sparrow, but she didn’t. I knew right from the start that I wasn’t going to win. lol. I had the least amount of money, I bought the second most expensive ship, AND I had the least amount of life tiles. :( Surprisingly, Ron won and not by that much, a couple hundred. Poor Jessy.



After the game, they kinda knocked out. Well, not really. I guess they were sleepy? Lol. I mean, it WAS 4 am. I wasn’t very sleepy so I suggested that we put on a movie to help us fall asleep. I popped in Shanghai Knights.

There they are… Semi knocked out.

I started dozing off, still able to hear the movie in the background, eyes getting heavy. Suddenly I just woke up and noticed that everyone else was sleeping. I stopped the movie, cleaned up a bit, turned off all the lights, and fell asleep next to Jess. It was 5am. We’ve been hanging out for 12 hours straight… and it was AWESOME. lol.

Unfortunately, the boys started snoring so I went to my nice, comfy, bed in my nice, comfy room. :)

That’s not the end, though. My mom woke me up at 9! Fracking 9! X[ She made pancakes for breakfast. I noticed that there weren’t enough for everyone so I settled for an apple and banana. Yay healthyness! XD

We decided to finish Shanghai Knights and right after they popped in Shanghai Noon. :P I bought some El Pollo Loco for lunch. Om nom nom. Right when the movie ended, I had finished editing our music video. I presented it to them and I made copies. I dropped Ron and Jess off at around 4 or 5. So that means we all hung out for a whole 24 hours. Pretty dang fun if you ask me. :) Thanks for an awesome time. Sadly, we probably won’t be seeing each other for a VERY long time and that makes me sad. I’ll miss you guys! X[….

So. That’s it. My last Friday/Saturday of freedom. Well there was a family party for tito Roland’s birthday (which was fun too) but I’ll talk about that later. But yeah. I had a pretty good last week of freedom. Thanks to everyone that made it so. <3

Also, since I had to upload the videos for our music video from Jess’s memory card, I also took some pictures from Jean’s birthday. :P


I was peeling Ron’s sunburnt skin. Eww…




I made a mountain/back rest. :P Poor Jessy’s ice cream got ruined. :(


We wuv him. <3 Well, Ron loves him more. haha.


Cards = Life of the Party. No lie.


Sober Steffy. :)


[fin.]

To Long Beach.

I wanted to practice driving to LB, for once. Jess was my navigator. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Although, there was one point where I was fiddling with my ipod and the car started merging into the left lane without me knowing. Haha. Ergh. Yeah. Jess’ll be riding with me for the first week so I can get used to driving to LB. :)

We picked up Michelle and went back and forth from Aida’s to school to buy our books for class. My total turned out to be more than $500 and Jess’s was over $600. o_O And on top of the books, I also had to buy a parking permit. -_-

After we finished our book business, we went to Michelle’s apartment. It seemed like forever since the last time Jess & I were there. And I finally got back my gray flats that I left there. XD Haha. Michelle said that they were behind the couch for the longest time. :P

Marvin & Michelle brought us to this dim sum place in Westminster. It was deeelish but the waiters were a bit rude. I didn’t think I was going to eat that much but I actually ate a lot. lol.

After lunch, we went to this place called Znows, a Mexican ice cream shop. All of us got mango with chili (lucas) except for jess who got mango with caramel. It was soooo good. XD It was a really cool place. Nice and chill. It reminded me of the crepe place Genkai Living, in Arcadia. Nice atmosphere. :)


"Joy" says the cup. "Om nom nom!" says I. XP


We decided to buy Alex and Kyle some ice cream and visit them at work. Hehe. We only gave them one spoon so that the lovers could enjoy it together. ;) Wow. We haven’t seen Kyle or Alex in forever. Not since Michelle’s birthday, and we didn’t spend that much time with them that day, either. :/ It was cool seeing them again. Jess & I drew all over their whiteboard. Hehe. And goodness, they call THAT work? All they did was sit around and go online and stuff. I saw Kyle wrap up a package, but he just ended up kicking it around with Alex. Haha. Silly boys.


Notice the drawing of Kyle and Alex feeding each other ice cream. ;)


In the warehouse, they had a bowflex and a bunch of bikes. Geez am I weak. I could barely pull the bowflex. -_- Bleh. Jess and Marvin tried to ride the bike but the seat was too high for them. haha. When Marvin had a go at it, the seat looked like it was ramming up his arse. :P

It was fun. We showed them the Ding Dong Song music video. They were singing “Ohhh. You touch my tra la la” by the time we said goodbye.

After that, we visited Mike who was working at the movie theater. He was the manager so he got us in for free. XD Thanks Mike! I finally watched Iron Man. FINALLY. Lol. I loved it! X)

My mom called so it was time to drive back to L.A. Whoopeee! Lol. The drive back home wasn’t bad either. I hung out at Jess’s place for a bit to eat dinner and plan out our last Friday of freedom. We wanted to go clubbing but pretty much everyone I asked just couldn’t make it. So we just decided on a sleepover. :)

[fin.]

With Chris & Anty

Anty & I drove to Chris’s place to hang out. I never realized how far Chris had to drive every time he came over to hang out with me. Poor Chrissy.


Dearest Anty. I have no idea why she wore that wrap. It was fracking hot!


I was going to get my haircut but the place Chris brought us to said that they didn’t cut short hair. Like WTF??? But it was ok. I think I need to grow my hair out a little bit more before I cut it.

We went to the Topanga mall, walked around, and bought a couple of things. I FINALLY got a skinny black tie! XD It was fun. I bought them pretzels. Om nom. :) Then we tried to look for shoe laces for Chris but we were unsuccessful. :/


Chris shmoking. :/





Afterwards, we went back to Chris’s place and we walked to the boba place nearby. We argued about whether or not Chris’s shortcut was, indeed, a shortcut because Anty and I both agreed that it seemed like a longer route. Anyways, I bought them boba and we walked back to Chris’s to watch movies. We were torn between watching The Mummy and Blade Trinity. We decided on Blade because Chris wanted to see Jessica Biel and Anty & I wanted to see Ryan Reynolds. ;)


Went home at 10. It was a fun day. Happy happy! Joy joy! :) Love you guys! <3

[fin.]

Jean's 21st Birthday.

Still awake at 2am right after Jean's party. The reason for the seashells and Flounder is because we went to the Venice Beach today and I didn't take any pictures. lol.

I woke up at 6 to get ready for the beach. 6 freaking AM. lol. I got to Jess's house by 8. We had to pick up a number of people. Kaycee, Ron, Paolo. So sad that Jean has to drive on his birthday but I guess he's used to it. :/

Paolo said to me "This is the first time you're chilling with me, huh? So you're sarcastic, I'm weird... I don't think we're gonna get along." haha.

The water was frickin cold but we got used to it in time. We couldn't feel our feet. :P There were so many surfers there. You could tell they were all noobs because most of them would wipe out at the weakest of waves. And sadly, the waves weren't that great, but it was enough to satisfy me. :)

Jess was making the Ice Cream logo in the sand. It was amazing how perfect she was making it. Really nice stuff. Sadly, the waves came before she was even finished, before she even took a picture of it. :(

This time I wanted to make just a regular castle instead of a duck or turtle. Major FAIL! :( The sand I was using was too dry and adding water didn't help that much. *sigh* I declared my project a mountain and called it a day. I ended up using it as a back rest. :P

After the beach, we went to Mt. St. Mary's to pick up Paolo's girlfriend. She was moving into her dorm. I remembered Christia saying that she was moving back on Saturday as well so I tried calling her. I gave up because I swear, there is NO reception at all up there! They sure have a nice view, though. lol. Anyways, we were walking to Andrea's dorm when I heard a car beep and a familiar voice yell "Stephannie!!!" haha. I quickly turned and yelled back "Christiaaaaaaa!!!" I had to keep walking because the others were leaving me so I just waved goodbye. Such a coincidence that Christia just happened to be driving up the hill as we were crossing the street. We bumped into her once more when Andrea was showing us around her dorm. Another concidence that Christia just HAPPENED to live in the same building. haha. Then yet AGAIN, as we were leaving, we saw Christia carrying things to her dorm with her brother. Destiny I tell you! haha. Yeah, I thought that was cool.

Jess, Ron and I had buy Jean's gift, bags, wrapping paper and cakes. Ron and I got Jean some black converse, which he has been wanting for a while but Jess had yet to buy it for him. Jess got ube cake from Goldilocks and red velvet ice cream cake from Coldstone. Yummeh! I dropped Jess & Ron off, drove home, quickly showered, threw on a dress, and drove back to Jess's so we could go to Jean's together. We were all STARVING and couldn't wait to get to Jean's. lol.

The BIG 21! Ya know what that means!? Drinks! haha. We were the first ones at Jean's house. He told us 6 so we CAME at 6! Then when we got there he said 7. haha. A little late for that. So we helped Jean buy his drinks.

It was funny how Jean was opening gifts, pretending to be surprised. You should see the pictures. It was like O.O "a sweater!!" ^o^

Some people were SO dang messy with their alcohol. Spilling all over the place. I didn't drink that much. Only to the point where I was semi-buzzed. Those who were drunk were rather entertaining. Sarah was druuuuunk. Crazy drunk. So much laughing. Oh so much. :)

As usual, the cards and DSs provided entertainment. haha. At first we were just playing pusoy dos for shots but we later moved on to playing the animal game so that more people could play. Sarah was always asking us what animal we were and would say "youuu!" every time. It was funny. Albert was funny too. He had trouble pronouncing platypus. haha.

Sandy picked us up and we dropped off Jess and Ron home. It was a VERY long day and tomorrow they'll be at work, and I'll be hanging out with my cousins. haha. Had fun today. :)

Haha. And one more thing... Ron is "just like them." o_O I had no idea.


082408

Anty did my nails. You likey? lol.

Today I watched Death Race with the cousins. The movie wasn't bad. It was entertaining. Anty was being her silly self, making odd comments every now and then, saying things like "No! Don't do that!" or "You killed his wife!" Pretty funny but I think the guy sitting in front of us wanted to tell her to shut up. haha.

We ate out and went back to my place to hang out. We watched Atonement and Anty did my nails. :) Black & green. After they left, I started to watch Spaced and I realized that a lot of the things John said at my party were from the show. Too bad I had only watched the first episode before the party, otherwise I would've laughed. haha. oh wells.

One more week of freedom. Must enjoy it while it lasts! X]

[fin]

Party.

8 am the morning after and I'm doing A OK. lol... kinda.
Well, actually my head and tummy hurt, I'm pretty sleepy, and I'm hungry. :<

Yesterday was my little party with my Long Beach buddies. I haven't seen most of them all summer. Sadness. :(

I told them to come at 2 but they came at 4 which was fine since we still had some cooking to do. Mmmm. Spam musubi... Om nom nom. Also had some grilled hamburgers, fish and meat. John brought some pork buns and sesame balls (my fav) from china town. Jess bought a pizza. I now notice that all I ate last night was a pork bun, a bite of spam musubi (since Ron ate the rest of it :( ) and some meat. So much food and that's all I ate!? Sadness. :(

We watched Silent Hill, Ron's choice, and at the end, poor Jess started to cry and was scared to go home. :/ It's ok Jess. No monsters shall get you while you sleep. Acutally, I'm pretty surprised that Jess lasted the whole movie. I thought she would just get up and go outside or something but she actually watched it. Good job Jess! Scary movies only from now on.

It was different from the dream because we were alone in the dark and there weren't people laughing and staring. lol. But it was very nice. haha. I don't even know how long it lasted. And that's all I have to say about that.

I beat Jean and Ron's asses at ping pong. Ron was trying to be all fancy with his spins and crap but I still won. :) When I did a rematch with Jean, he beat my arse because HE started to be all fancy shmancy too. >:P Good game guys.

We played this board game where you were given a subject and you had to think of words that started with a certain letter that were related to that subject. Twas fun. Silly Phillip kept saying "boobs." Same with Taboo. "BOOBS!" haha. Silly boy. We played up to 40. Our team A won. :)

Lets see... we also played Operation which was a horrible failure. Shit's hard. lol.

Ron used the term "pounce" to describe my behavior. haha. Silly boy. And why the heck did you take a video!? Jerk.

Charlie made a bet with me before the party started. All he said was "Hey Steph, you wanna make a bet?" I asked him what. All he had to do was make that look with a big smile and wide eyes, and nod his head and I already knew what he was thinking. He didn't have to say a word. We shook on it and the competition was on. And darn it I lost. :( Bye bye $2. haha.

Everyone left around 1 or 2. I don’t really remember. I was really worried about them driving. :/ I felt really bad that they all cleaned up the place while I was sleeping (or trying to) on the couch. Thanks you guys. Thanks for taking care of me.


poor noob had no ride home so he slept over

So little sleep for Steffy. Woke up around 7 to clean up and bring Ron home. There wasn't that much to clean since the others had already done my work for me last night. Thanksies! :) On my way back, I got home 2 mins before my dad. Phew. Close one.

My mom called asking if everyone was gone and if I was awake and such. Then she said "I need to talk to you." At that moment I was freaking out but it turned out that I misheard her and she just wanted to talk to my dad. haha. Paranoid much?

I had fun. Hope everyone else did too. :)

Jean was hilarious. Saying stupid shit and doing stupid shit like dancing with the stuffed Spiderman.

Gawd I'm tired. More stories I suppose, but I'm too lazy now. I've been sleeping most of the day. And I think I'll sleep s'more. :) night night everyone!


quick thought.

What I hate about chatting online is that sometimes people can never tell if you're being serious or sarcastic. It sucks.

[fin]

Six Flags.

Dive Devils with Stacey and Ron.

Poor Ron could only fly with one hand since Stace wouldn't let go of his other arm. :( It was awesome being 150ft up in the air, heart pounding, waiting for Stacey to pull that damn string. haha. We even bought the dvd just for the heck of it. :P


The beginning of this year was my first time going to Six Flags. I've gone a total 4 times since then. haha. Am I addicted? Perhaps I am. :D


This time I went with Stace, Jerry, Ron, Matt, Feliz & two other people (their names escape me :/). A nice, even number of 8. Stace was my riding buddy. :P

We only waited in line for X2, Tatsu, and Deja Vu. Everything else was smooth sailing. :)In those three lines, we entertained ourselves by playing games. Sadly, nearly everyone knew the Bang, who's dead? game. And we also played Black Magic and this one funny game where you make noises and slap each other's hands. I think the people waiting in front of us were annoyed. haha.


It was fun. Nearly all of us bought super hero capes, mainly batman. :P My head hurt at the end of the day but it was all worth it. :) I might go one more time before school starts, but I'm not sure.





Anyways, I'm having a party tomorrow with my Long Beach buddies. Those people better not eff up my house! >:[

[fin]

First Day.

Yep. That's me at 1am. Messy hair, eyeliner still on, and a facial expression I can't describe. lol.

That's Yoshi by my bed, given to me by my best friend, Jess. And the brown bear in front of Yoshi was given to me by my dear friend Sasha who passed away a few years back.

No, I'm not tired. Not at all.
Yes, I know I have a lot of toys.
No, I won't get rid of them.
Yes, I have a single track trophy which I am rather proud of.




It was just me, Chris, and Kevin today. Anty was at Sea World with the family. bleh. We took Kevin to H&M to help him pick out some new clothes. Hey! They have nice stuff there ok! And it's CHEAP too. lol. Kevin got some nice threads and so did Chris, who bought me a shirt. Thank you sir. <3

Afterwards we watched Mirrors. Stupid movie but we had some laughs and scares. When it was over we were all saying "KNEW we shoulda watched Star Wars!" hahaha. They all blamed it on me because they made ME decide what movie to watch. I only said Mirrors because Chris doesn't even LIKE Star Wars. I knew both me and Kevin were down to watch Star Wars but bleh! Darn it, Steph! Anyways, after that we were about to play some tennis cocker but it was too dark so we just hung out at my place. :)




I'm rather proud of myself for today. Not ONE cigarette touched my lips. I only held one because Chris asked me to hold it for him while he did a dance move. lol. He offered me one numerous times today. I refused. I'm on my way. :) Healthy lungs FTW!! XD

I also ate plenty of fruits and veggies today. An apple, some cawwots, a banana. lol. It's not much, but it's a start. :)

I did a little bit o' exercise this morning too. YAY! So happy! But let's see how long I'll last. :/




oh yeah. Today, while Chris was smoking and we were all just standing my my car, chatting, Chris said "Pull your shirt down!" because my midriff was showing. So he grabbed my shirt and pulled down, revealing my bra! o_O He quickly turned away and screamed "NOOOO!" Kevin, too, was taken aback as he shielded his eyes from the sight of my breast! Goodness Chris! Can you be ANY more incestuous!?

lol. Just kidding Chris! It was all an accident, I know. :P





Many plans for the week. Oh, and I desperately need to practice driving to Long Beach.

[fin.]

Mornings.

Yes, the sun shines directly into my room in the morning.
Yes, I got the ginormous spoon and fork from the PI.
No, I don't usually take off my eyeliner before I go to bed.
Yes, I sleep with my jeans on sometimes because I'm too lazy to change.

I woke up unusually early today because dear Chris called me to make sure we were hanging out today. We're going to help Kevin pick out a new wardrobe & we're going to watch a movie. Either Star Wars or Mirrors since we've already seen the movies that poor Kevin wanted to see. :(

These days breakfast is a thing of the past because I wake up so darn late. Just brunch and dinner. *sigh* How do I expect to gain ANY weight if I continue this pattern.

I miss eating breakfast. :(

I have nothing to do in the morning. No one's ever online so I decided to upload some pictures and exercise for a bit (something I haven't done in a while). I think I'm going to start running again. It's better than wasting away in front of my laptop. lol.

Yesterday I bought some fruits and veggies. I want to change the way I eat. It's always fast food and soda and chips and candy. Not good at all. It's time for a change for the better. :)

I've been smoking way too much these days. :( Every night for the past week. It's hard to stop, especially when there is a pack at my disposal. Shame on you, Steph. You KNOW it's not good for you and yet you still do it. I could just throw the pack away and I'd be done with it. I think I will. Or I'll give it to Chris. I have trouble breathing nowadays so it would be awesome if I could just QUIT! I can do it. Stupid lungs. Stupid Steph.

Beaches.

I… am… DARK!

lol.

I’ve been going to the beach WAY too much lately.

On Tuesday I went to Santa Monica with the cousins. On Thursday I went to Venice with Jess, Jean, Ron, & Jed. And on Friday I went back to Santa Monica with Christia & Stace.

Here are some reactions to my… darkness of skin. Hahaha.

“I can’t look at you… You’re so black!”
“Whoa you’re dark. You’re… dirty, dark.”
“You’re almost as dark as April!” (April is my cousin who looks quite… no offense, African American. lol.)
“Wow. You’re so orange!”

Too dark, Steph! TOO DARK!.

Whatever! I love the beach!

Beach Day #1
Sandy’s lover was supposed to come with us but he flaked out with the excuse of “I’m tired. It’s my day off. I don’t want to go.” or some crap like that. So what then? She picked him up in the morning, brought him to our house for an hour or two, and then just brought him back home? He could’ve just slept at the beach if he was so damn tired. He’s pretty inconsiderate considering all the things that Sandy does for him.

It was just me, Sandy, Anty, and Chris. Kevin couldn’t come because his mom was still pissed at him for disobeying her when we went out to watch Stepbrothers.

Sandy tanned most of the time. They buried me and gave me Christia-sized boobs and a penis. lol.

I feel bad that they don’t know how to body board because it is AWESOME when you do it right. I tried to teach them… but unfortunately, I’m a bad teacher. Lol. I’m glad they still had fun and that they were able to catch at least some good waves correctly. :)

After the beach, we went back to Chris’s house to eat. Naturally, there was Neil playing his WoW as always. Chris kept on telling us about this hilarious comedy movie called Audition and he desperately wanted us to watch it. He’s a terrible liar. To no surprise it was an Asian horror flick. We all ruined the movie because we wouldn’t stop making stupid comments. :P At some point during the movie, Chris sat next to me and screamed, which made ME scream, which made Neil jump in his seat even though he wasn’t watching the movie and was playing his WoW. lol.

From the body boarding… bruises started to form on my stomach. Just a couple bruises but nothing big. Two near the ribs, and one on my belly.


Beach Day #2
Once again, I felt bad that they didn’t know how to body board but Jean and Jed did it right a couple of times so that was cool. Jean tried to use his own body as a body board because we saw a couple of guys doing it. Madness! It looked so cool.

Frickin Ron wouldn’t go in the water but at least I whooped that noob’s arse at Tetris and he helped me make my sand ducky! Me, Jed, and Ron teamed up to make our superdeeduper sand duck. We made a wall and a moat to protect our duck from the waves. Jed was hardcore, making the wall completely surround our duck. It was fun. It’s ALWAYS fun making things out of sand. :)

Jess just tanned, took pictures and read her book. :P

On the drive back home after eating paninis, all was quiet in the car when I broke the silence with “Guys… I need to pee.” hahahaha. I was trying to hold it in until I got home but I couldn’t. Ron, the jerk, kept on saying “pee… pee…” as we searched for a gas station. So helpful he was. lol. Thank goodness we found one. I was about to change my mind about that bathroom because there was shit hanging from the side of the toilet. But this was an emergency!

From the body boarding… my bruises turned into scratches. They were open wounds and they hurt like a bitch. You could tell that something was scraping at my body by the way the scratches looked. Taking a shower was horrible as the soap entered the wounds. Simply terrible. They look like a million small scratches clustered together. Bleh.


Beach Day #3
We had a Harry Potter marathon the night before. Christia brought us coffee and we also drank a bunch of Full Throttle to keep us awake. We ate pizza and Christia finished damn near half of it. hahaha.

I dozed off in the middle of Goblet of Fire. The others fell asleep not too long after me. :P

The next day I went to my dentist and Stace, to her doctor, then we were off to Santa Monica!

We parked a couple blocks from the beach even though there was PLENTY of parking on the beach. -_- It wasn’t so bad though. Walking = good. :P

Christia & Stace wanted to be boring and tan. lol. I just wanted to body board and make another sand duck. I napped under my towel for a while because I didn’t want to get any darker. I tried to make another sand duck but I gave up when the beak kept breaking on me. :( I wish I had my team with me. Stace helped me for about 5 minutes then left. haha. I didn’t have a bucket so I was using a bowl to scoop up sand and stuff. :P

I KNEW it was a bad idea but… from the body boarding… my scratches worsened, they burned in the salty ocean water, and I got 3 more scratches. I know I shouldn’t have gone back in the water but I couldn’t resist. :( I lasted maybe 20 minutes in the water when I couldn’t handle the pain any longer.

Now I must suffer the consequences. It’ll take a while for these babies to heal up and I’ll probably be scarred. I had to wear my tank top in a way so that it wouldn’t be touching the scratches because any contact at all would make it burn. X[ I completely regret going back into the water because it was nothing but pain and semi-weaksauce waves. Stupid, stupid Stef.

We took pictures at the playground nearby. THAT was fun. Silly Christia saying “Do a sexy pose!” lol.

We were huuuunnngry so we drove to Alhambra to eat at The Hat. We were going to get crepes but after The Hat, there was no way we could eat any more. lol.

We took some Cue pics and went back to my house to finish Goblet of Fire. Right after, we were looking through SUPER old pictures from our ST.D days and we decided to remake them. :P

I also got them addicted to Gummy Chocos mwahahahaha!

So yeah. I’m dark, my eyes are red, my ass is so white it's scary, I have scratches on my body, I had fun and I’m going to the beach again next Friday. No way I’m gonna miss Stace’s birthday! :P

[fin]

see my darkness???

How I know...

...that there is someone here that shouldn’t be. In this case, Sandy’s boyfriend, Ramley.

Number One: I woke up at 7am to the sound of Sandy coming home.

Ok. First of all, where the FRICK did you go at 7am??? Because you sure as hell didn’t just go to school for 30 minutes. And I’m pretty sure you’re SUPPOSED to be at school right now. So where oh where could she have gone?

Number Two: Sandy ran down the stairs, scrambled with her keys, quickly opened the door to her room, shut the door, and locked it.

I would never be so excited to go to my room! Not unless I just bought something and I was anxious to open it up. Or I had forgotten something that I needed and it was in my room. Or I need to desperately get on my laptop for something important. Of course, any of these things could easily explain Sandy’s hurried entrance, but it cannot be; for I hear no opening of purchased items, I hear no rummaging, and Sandy has no laptop. I COULD be jumping to conclusions when I assume that someone’s here but come on!

And since when do you lock your door when someone’s home? Hmm? Anyways, moving on.

Number Three: Sandy turned on her TV and the volume is unusually loud.

There is NOTHING and I mean NOTHING on at this hour. You have no DirecTV in there so I know there’s nothing interesting on. And I know you don’t watch the news. And I’m pretty certain that it’s not Sesame Street you’re watching.

Ok. So maybe you’re watching TV. Maybe you’re boyfriend’s not there with you doing the dirty. But I don’t really know that, now do I. And I am positive that you’re not deaf. So why in the world is your volume so loud?



Sandy can be painfully obvious when she lies or when she’s hiding something. She could have just came home, walked to her room, closed the door, and turned on her TV to a normal volume like a normal person and I wouldn’t have suspected a thing. Well, I’d be a little suspicious but I still wouldn’t have bothered her.



I hate the fact that I can hear through the walls.



Ok. Sandy just texted me confirming that her beloved Ramley is here. So… YAY! I win!

I wonder what would happen if daddy were to just come home right now and walk into Sandy’s room. I would NOT want to be here to see that.

Yep. The TV’s back on. In other words… Baw chicka baw waw. She put the volume louder as a courtesy for those in the house. Which is just me. lol! Steph! Don’t think about it. They’re watching the news like the good citizens they are. They just want some information about the world. Yup. They’re juuust watching TV. Nothing more.

Before Sandy even confirmed my suspicions, I had already texted Anty, begging her to come over early so I wouldn’t be stuck like this until 2! “I’ll let you play neopets!” I persuaded her. lol. I’ll be picking her up later.

Chris… can be a total douche sometimes.

“I hope you think about them doing it while you eat :)” Thanks… so kind of you to say…



YUP! This was my morning. This is how it shall be for the next 5-6 hours. Lucky me. :)



We’re going to the beach today. He’s coming with us. Things will be awkward. I hope I have fun anyways.



Oh lord. Reminds me of when Dan came over this one time and I couldn't find him. Sandy was in the shower but I thought, "Eww! No!... EWW!" and yep he was in there with her. Then when I confronted her about her lack of prudeness she said, "What! He didn't wanna be alone!" Which is the stupidest response she could've given me. LOL!

Ok then. I'm hearing a LOT of movement in her room so I think it's a good time for me to eat breakfast!


[fin]

WOW was I bored this morning. lol
