I like to Ramble.......

presently... i'm eating this strange poopy-unattractive object that claims to be a peanut cookie. eyeah....i dunno why i have a strong affinity for strange looking and tasting things... just like... MHC IIs have for.. CD4s? *sigh... speaking of the devilish bio test..... BOMB! somehow i should have learned from last six weeks that i should never study for bio tests..... it always back fires. i think i study so hard that i start to confuse myself. and i have this problem of not following my first instincts. i seem to bubble in the correct answers the first time i answer them... then i change it... and BOMB. erugh....stoopid bio....

WHOA......just went to get some milk... a miracle happened.... the gallon of milk is actually empty now. my family is notorious for never finish our milk... not even a pint or quart of milk..... and now.. ladies and gentlemen.. we have finished a gallon! haha... yea that just made my ubber crummy day a tad bit better. i guess it wasnt so much the bio test that ruined my day... i guess lotsa stuff sorta led up to it.. and BAM... the BOMB of a grade.. and spanish was just as confusing. i guess by the time spanish rolled around... the fluid in my ear had lost equilibrium and i was about to faint from exhaustion. right now i just want to breathe a bit....when APs are over... i'll regain my sanity. but for now....i'm just gonna pray hard cuz i know my Lord Jesus can get me through my frustration. *sigh*
up to today... life was pretty much on cruise control of terrific times. it's arite though.. life is full of ups and down and we just gotta be emotionally stable and deal with it. and listening to soothing music helps too. a recent song i've come to like is Somewhere in Between by Lifehouse.....reminds me of floating clouds......
when my sister said....."i'll be you for a day.. and u be me for a day..okay?"..... i should have said yes...wishin i was 6 again....

Steeni speaks:
The world is running out of geniuses. Einstein died, Beethoven went deaf, and I'm starting to get a migrane.

that quote would reflect my physical state right now. my head feels like there are little rocks rolling around it in. i've never experienced such a headache before. but i know that if i go to sleep... i shall wake up even more head-ached than before. so im just gonna linger around... and go studying like a mad woman again sometime later.

note to my future study habits (talkin abt bio):
OpHeEeNieEe: sure was harder than i've ever studied b4..in my LIFE
OpHeEeNieEe: hahaa
fallin f0r Y0U: hehe
fallin f0r Y0U: well, you can do one of 2 things now
fallin f0r Y0U: 1. see yesterday as a traumatizing experience and NEVER study that hard EVER AGAIN
fallin f0r Y0U: or
fallin f0r Y0U: 2. keep trying to beat that record
fallin f0r Y0U: please, make the wise decision
OpHeEeNieEe: wut the... i dont like... 2
OpHeEeNieEe: makes me feel like i'm in the matrix
OpHeEeNieEe: pill 1... or pill 2
fallin f0r Y0U: im morpheus

but before i go study... i'm gonna do one of two things....1. eat candy.....2. eat bread

nehehehehe...*sounding goats* ^_^
i swear... i really DID remember my friday five on friday...cept... i got lazy...or i uh.. studied for ...uh... stuff instead..hehe... so this week.. i've put a twist on this "friday five"

1. What was your most memorable food from the last week?
- the egg noodles i had to cook myself before going on the scholarship walk cuz....i tried cooking it this one new way....or shud i say.. Alice Luo style....by putting it into a bowl and adding hot water from a hot water thing. hahaa....i dunno how it ever works for her...i'll blame it on the noodles.

2. What one food touched your life this week?
- i'd have to say papsitos chips and spinach dip. my mom bought a thing of spinach dip on saturday..... my family and i ate half of the dip an hour after it was bought. then my sister and i finished it off sunday afternoon.....that's a record....one container of dip...one day.. and boy are papasitos chips REALLLLLY good!
- oh.. and i gotta say.. that cold pizza delivered by the "delivery guy" on my doorstep wasnt so bad either.

3. How have you helped food this week?
- my dad always says that you should eat food of every color every day to ensure that you've eaten a balanced diet. i suppose i've helped food this week by eating all different colors. that way...no one gets left out.. and i'm still healthy.

4. What one food do you need to eat by this time next week?
- i hope to have eaten a seafood sub from subway by this time next week.......we'll see...

5. What one food will you eat the next seven days to make your world a better place?
- herm.. this one's tough. i guess i'd have to say.....candy.. to prevent little children from getting too many cavities and to prevent dentists from making too much off of little children...haha.. no...that's not good.....ok ok.. i guess i'd have to say.........apples... to prevent me from going to the doctors... (an apple a day keeps the doctor away) the world cud use one less sick person.

nice twist eh?

so i've discovered.. it's impossible for me to study at home..... everytime i see my house.. my brain automatically clicks into ~must sleep mode~ but..... now.. i have a greater motivation to study hard for bio and pre cal... guess why..?
I'm still in the running for exemptions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! apparently.. i calculated incorrectly.. *sigh* bio... totally deteriorates my math skills..*shakes head* but the challenge now.. is to make an A on tomorrows bio test in order for me to get exemptions...*sigh*.....so... i've decided i should go study.. OH.. and maaaan.... APs...wow... they're just flying at us....so... better make like a plane and jet.... make like a banana and split......make like a bread and roll......

last note: homestar runner..has taken over steeni...hehe..so it seems.....herm....=P


end note:
.......funny the way God works sometimes.....^_~

oh my... so i decided to finally read one of the thousands of emails i receive from my old sunday school teacher today...and it was so kewl i decided to share with you all

Psalm 25:10
All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful
for those who keep the demands of his covenant.


G U I D A N C E When I meditated on the word GUIDANCE, I kept seeing
"dance" at the end of the word. I remember reading that doing God's will
is a lot like dancing. When two people try to lead, nothing feels
right. The movement doesn't flow with the music, and everything is quite
uncomfortable and jerky.

When one person realizes and lets the other lead, both bodies begin to
flow with the music. One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to
the back or by pressing lightly in one direction or another. It's as if
two become one body, moving beautifully. The dance takes surrender,
willingness, and attentiveness from one person and gentle guidance and
skill from the other.

My eyes drew back to the word GUIDANCE. When I saw "G," I thought of
God, followed by "u" and "i."
"God, "u" and "i" dance."! God, you, and I dance. This statement is
what guidance means to me.

As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust that I would get
guidance about my life. Once again, I became willing to let God lead.

My prayer for you today is that God's blessings and mercies be upon you
and your family on this day and everyday. May you abide in Him as He
abides in you. Dance together with God, trusting Him to lead and to
guide you through each season of your life.

This prayer is powerful and there is nothing attached. If God has done
anything for you in your life, please share this message with someone
else, for prayer is one of the best gifts we can receive. There is no
cost but a lot of rewards; so lets continue to pray for one another.
ever tried sitting on singing on top of your car? (random thought of the day)

the weather was so gorgeous today. was taking kathy home when i realized how much i appreciated the warm weather. though i still miss the cold....this warm stuff rocks. and once again.... the warm weather (like Easter) reminds me of.....GREEN! (new life ^_*)

cant really think of ne thing else i wanna say....just that it's beautiful outside......^_^


I"M BACK..... eh.. not really hehe... but yeeah..

whoa.. i just finished writing an "if i were a senior" column for jesse on our blog...hehe.. it was pretty fun.. i didnt know i had a lot of those words in me. maaan.... i cant believe time is passing...so fast... so fast...kinna had a taste of senior-ness when i wrote our column..

DarkJediPete: naps suck
OpHeEeNieEe: aww.. y?!?!
DarkJediPete: well...for one thing, it messed up my hair
OpHeEeNieEe: HAHAHA
after guiltily sabotaging my car with sticky notes.......

fallin f0r y0u: O:-) (angel smiley)

DarkJediPete: ...i...am...innocent O:-)

so then... yesterday... glores, alicia, and i come out of cat lab... and i look and see my car with numerous sticky notes posted all over my car...using my superior intellect i deducted from some clues on the notes.... who the culprites were. *shakes head*...hence the comments up above.

oiy.. no more cat lab *sniff*sniff*.... yes our michito/mrs.cat days are over. we even gave her kidney snipage and open heart surgery ^_^....gloria and her scalpal and scissors!!! hehe...annie and her super muscle defining skills....kolsom..and her.. watermelon!! hahaa.. man cat lab.. good times.. good times. Oh and to top it off... we had our LAST bio quiz of the year......*sniff*sniff*....not..... no more bio outlines!!! oh... wait.. spoke to quickly.. .still got those extra credit ones to do *_*.....enuf of bio.. moving on.....

the best thing about having track off season is... we dont do anything. for a while i just left after 6th but then coach hollis decided we shud stay in the locker room or workout versus just leaving. so then i realized staying at school 7th isnt so bad. i get most of my hw done...which is good cuz if i'm at school i wont fall asleep and i'll actually get my work done. like today for example... i dont have hw! i've realized that in my three years of hs.. i've never fallen asleep at school. somehow i just dont know how to fall asleep at school. i just end up giving my teachers the lazy eye.....or the groggy eyes... where i look like i'm awake and i stare with contempt at my teacher... but in a way i'm techincally asleep because i cant hear a word the teacher is saying. and i also found out that i can be a sound sleeper when i want to be. yesterday i told my dad to wake me up in 10 minutes from my power nap, which was at around 10. so then when i opened my eyes... it was 1:30......and i confront my father about this mishap. he tells me that he was vigorously shaking me to awake me... but i just slapped him and went back to sleep. usually i'm not a sound sleeper. if i know you're gonna wake me up... i wake at the poke of a finger. herm.....

then today after school as i was wandering slowly to my locker before the bell rang... i was ascending the stairs when i hear "ophelia wong!!!" yelled kinna loudly. so i go back down the stairs a bit but dont see anyone. then i hear another "ophelia wong!!!" a bit more loudly this time... so i walk back down again...but to find no one there. to this point in time.. i still do not know to who that mysterious voice belonged to.


hum.. feeling kinna tired...and awake... think i'll go eat an apple ^_^



Monday, April 21, 2003

i cant believe!!!! ahhhhh my weekend... this really awesome...fantastic weekend.... flash whoosh.... snap.. bang... one hour left. *sigh*.. but i praise God for every moment of it.
SS/Baptism party rocked today. the FOOD.....the pictionary......the mafia.....the ddr.....the people...mrs. fong! i havent screamed so loud... or laughed so hard in a really long time. hence my personal quote: sometimes i like to laugh so hard that my stomach hurts... my cheeks burn.. and my eyes tear :-D
and also feeling kinna like.. i want time to stand still so i can experience that fuzzy cant eat cant sleep reach for the stars kinda feeling

and i've forgotten wut i wanted to say... i shall jabber more latter.
though it's no longer sunday. i must say easter did shed a new light in my life. It just felt like there was so much joy to spread around this year. it felt like dejavu of christmas.... almost.... cept it was in celebration of Christ's resurrection. God is just SOOOO good in SOOOO many ways... puts a smile on my face everytime i think of all the blessings that he pours out every moment. baptisms are are so refreshing..reminds me of my favorite color green... which symbolizes.. new life... i was SOO happy today.. that when i got hugs.. and my shoulders were squeezed too hard.. i didnt even feel the pain of my sunburn ^_^
Congrats and God speed on ur walks with Christ to : Peter, Xiao, Phil, Fred, and Vivian ^_^

HAPPY BELATED EASTER!!!!!!

Saturday, April 19, 2003

oh saturday oh... saturday...stinks when time passes too quick

well to start this saturday off.... i woke up at around 7. only becuz i cudnt sleep. that darn sunburn prevented me from sleeping on my side. That forced me to sleep on my back.... and my nose kept stuffing up....so i gave up trying to go back to sleep at around 8ish. so then i aimlessly wandered my house until my sister came home from piano lessons. then fam fam and i went to Andres to eat some... food... dunno where from. but it was SOOOOOO GOOOD!!!!!! we got desserts with our meals......mmmmmmmmmmmmm! that's pretty much all i did today.

oh and my sister and I... we discovered that we can talk like Stitch...hehee.. and we made up this screaming game...that's really funny and annoys ur parents. muwhahaha... ok.. imma go clean my room... again..=P
once again.. it isn't friday.. it was when i started...but when i finished.. i was too late

1. What was your most memorable moment from the last week?

Thursday, April 17, 2003

ok... after careful consideration, i finally decided to delete my dreambook. no more health insurance!
*long sighing* It is thursday.... we are on Easter break. what a wonderful time. Man... God is SO awesome ^_^ I've had like the best two weeks i've had in a long time. i must say yesterday was a little crummy... but nothing a little prayer couldnt heal. ^_*. It's amazing how strange things turn out sometimes....

anyhoo.... was today like... let's abuse ophelia day? To start off my day... ms.schroeder was not in pleasnt humor. she was rather.... eurhgkl.. at us for being so lazy and not doing our work that she penalized us... *sigh* so come precal... i'm peacefully taking notes when Sid... decides it would be funny to write obscene comments on my calculator and put that on repeat. being the technology illiterate person i am... i cudnt stop the repeat...so for the duration of that period i had this awful word constantly repeating on my calculator. to make matters even more interesting... i happen to have forgotten all my pens and stuff today... so yea.. lotsa fun there. then after 6th period i was peacefully putting up my books when this green-shirted dragon dude...(didnt get a chance to see who it was ... snuck off too quick) grabbed my head...and shook it around for a bit....think i mitta known who it was tho...

.then after 6th... this girl crashes into me.. and then.. this guy comes running at me with his mouth open about to eat me!!! holy smokes.....and to top things off i was in my car taking jeremy home in the student parking lot when we come across mok walking to his car. so being the kind person i am... i decide to take him to his car. when we get there we encounter simon and peter. simon decides to walk up to my car... and lift up one windshield wiper... and peter lifts up the other... and then they constantly open the doors to my car.. and as most of u know i have automatic seat belts....so my belts where just going crazy! to make matters worse...mok steals my sunshield and puts it infront of my windshield!!!! gaaah.. then jeremy... turns on my windshield wipers... and gets the water squirting things instead. oiy....*shakes head...jpgs...*

but besides that... it was a wonderful day! wuts more... i cant think of hw that i have *gasp* Have an awesome Easter weekend!!!


Tuesday, April 15, 2003

DarkJediPete: but i close my eyes when i do my morning stuff hehe
OpHeEeNieEe: for the heck of it?
DarkJediPete: cuz i can get that extra few minutes of "sleep"

what a good idea......=P
Back where i come from... 80 degrees is the dawn of summer........

just had the funniest feeling in the world. so i thought i was done with my hw..... then i realized... i have a precal quiz, spanish quiz, and an english quiz...cat practical....i knew no hw was too good to be true *sigh* but compared to my previous life... that's nothing.

i am liking the atmosphere....the environment of the times right now. everyday is a friday to me....it's kinna like i'm getting a small taste of being a senior...haha...but i know this feeling wont last long. i shud take advantage of this time and study for .... stuff... there's always something to study for... or i cud work on my 92 points of bio outlining... but ...nah~

today.. i was suffering from internal hyperness.... like the kind where u see happy people and randomly burst out laughing....(deb can back that up....=P).... .school is so... blah these days... sometimes i forget i'm even at school... i guess i dont mind going to school so much. had an interesting bio day. didnt have anything to study for at lunch... so that was nice. then steinkamp went to open heart with 6th period so that left our class... with an sub. so supposedly we went through the slides for our test on thurs.... which techincally we did... but we didnt. minutes into class and some people started playing n64....mario cart..... i on the other hand.... haha.. worked on precal.. thus the thought of no homework crossing my mind....then arjun, paniz, shannon.. and i.... borrowed steinkamps brownies in his fridge.....


so 7th period... turn in track stuff... *tear*....=P then the open heart people were already back, so i just go hang out with the bio crowd and we studied the cat.

o yea.. had a moment today in english. so i'm sitting in at my desk.. happy that i aced the "quizzy poop" (as ms. hemme puts it) and then yusra says...."there's something coming out of your pants"..... so i tap the back of my pants i pull this thing out... and it's dental floss..... dental floss.. coming out of my pants pocket*shakes head*... that sure beats toliet paper...

oiy... so ya think i can go to sleep b4 12 tonite? i'll sure try ^_^

Monday, April 14, 2003

OpHeEeNieEe: thats ok.. there's better fish in the ocean
aceoFheartsEsquE: but why get fish when u can have the whale?


what? lmbo...
You would think a few extra hours of sleep would allow you to wake up more peacefully. not the case. i need at least 14 hrs of sleep to actually willing lug myself out of bed. so even though i slept nearly 7 hrs last night... i still got to school at around 7:28... cz i woke up so late. that's the problem with having parking spot at school. i totally take advantage of the fact that i drive myself to school. i have less of an insentive to get up in the morning knowing that somehow... i will get myself to school before 7:30 if it's the last thing i do. i realize though... that if i leave my house after 7:15, there's this little traffic jam down elkins.... so to prevent from jamming i shud leave my house 7ish....

wow.. today was kinda kewl.... i mean.. it was just one of those great days where nothing major happens... but it was just a great day. for starters i didnt have any hw freak outs...and no surprise quizzes.....and i actually had time 7th period (my techincally free period) to do my pre cal... so that was a load off coming home. went to chop kitty after school. that was eventful....
kolsum: you dont know what you have until you cut open the watermelon (metaphor of our cat..... we got a good kitty... all the muscles are so well defined ^_*)

then anniemajiger and i went to the mall where we enjoyed some chicken... and pie... and some way kewl twinage time...^_^

and now... i dun know what to do with myself... somedays when the sun is shinning and the world is spinning in the right direciton... just dont have words to say.. only wanna take advantage of the fact that i dont have hw... and sleep for 8 hrs......

geeze.. this friday five is serious..haha

5. What one thing will you do over the next seven days to make your world a better place?
remember to turn off the light when i'm sleeping so that i dont waste electricity and also so that my vision doesnt get worse....one less blind woman and conserved energy wud definitely make the world a better place to be ^_^



This weekend... i'd say my life was in blessings overload mode.. haha.. tho... there's no such thing as too many blessings....^_^

for starters this past week was just... wow...it felt like friday everyday and i got enough sleep.... and i actually finished all my hw b4 class.. mostly cuz there wasn't much of it...haha
then friday... went to dare to share, which was perdy great. it's just kewl to see how Christians use their gifts to spiritually revive others. like those people in the skit. talented actors as well as singers and encouragers. Christian gatherings are always so spiritually uplifting and they have such an encouraging atmosphere. bumma i missed out saturday... cept God had plans for me elsewhere.
well i woke up this morning at around 7.... i forget y.. but i ate some food and then at around 8:20ish i head over to highland elementary school for their international festival. helped set up and met this girl from dulles who was nice and we talked abt spanish. ..... then come 9:30 i was assigned to the "Lucky Key" booth.. .where little kids just loved it and kept coming back... cuz i was SO nice and gave them free games after every five games they played..haha...stayed at that booth for 2 hrs... left highlands around 12... came home... napped until... 2:30.. and then i lunched.....picked up deb... and headed to Settlers Way elementary for their "walkathon" which was techincally not a walk at all.. since deb n i.... techincally didnt walk... we just bumbed around. the only somewhat productive thing we did was help out at these infaltable things and made sure it was safe.
around 6ish i left the school.. speedied my way home and ate food.... good food... mom-cooked food. ^_^ ... there after we headed for the compact center... Rocket's second to last game there.. versus the Seattle Supersonics!!! haha... I enjoyed such a great family time and what's more.. the Rockets WON...haha. they WON!!!! ... i guess i was torn btwn who to root for... i was thrilled the rockets were winning during the game... but then i was kinna.. disappointed that the sonics were losing.. *sigh*.. but i had fun.. my dad even bought me a shirt... and we got free beer bottle holders... dunno wut i'd ever do w/ that.. but it looks like a jersey so u cant really tell what it really is...and next tuesday.. they have yao ming bobbleheads!!! gahh.. y didnt they have them tonite?!?!?! and i STILL cant find the one that flew into the backseat of my car.. haha.. whoops.. it's a goner for sure. *sigh* ... after the game.. we went down to the court to take pictures with the players. my sister took a picture with........ i have yet to find out wut his name is.....bad w/ player names :nono:<-- blogger needs smileys.
i've made some pretty good memories this weekend... Praise God.... and hopefully i'll have some happy dreams to top off a happy weekend....anyhoo... it's... late.. whoa... it's early now.. okay.. sleep tight!

Thursday, April 10, 2003

this mite be the longest i haven't blogged... hahaa.. some life i have eh?
oiy... so i was SO incredibly happy last night that i had no hw... so i just laid down in my bed at around 10pm....then bam i fell asleep and woke up at 6:30... talk about catching up on sleep. 8.5 hrs... i dont recall ever sleeping that much in one sitting... woke up around 6:50 this morning, then headed to school, caught a bus and rode to St.Lukes where i got to watch open heart surgery that was perdy kewl. we had these volunteer tour guides that were about 80 yrs old... they were really small and funny old ladies. this one lady.. i think eleanor or ...something, gave us a tour of the hospital and when we were in the dialysis area, one of our high schoolers passed out.. and good thing we were in the hospital, they got her to the er in no time and thank goodness she was ok. when we finally went to see the operation, doctors took this "wand" and sliced open the guy and then we watched them drill into the bone...man.. those doctors... no mercy, they shook the entire body and it was like... shaking on the stretcher... craAazy...but kewl.
then after surgery we waited for the bus... starving.... so i decided to call my parents (who work across the street from st. lukes) to see if they cud bring me something from their snack stash in their office ... but i forgot to ask them....and instead they were gonna eat lunch in the really good st. luke's cafeteria and stopped by to say hi to me... and offered to take me to lunch.. but no cud do.. had to go eat at the first colony mall... where i ate a....... PRETZEL!!! ^_^

got back to school and picked up some stuff... then as i was waiting to get out of the parking lot... melody decides to come by my car and open the door randomly ...just so my seat belt wut slide off and then she runs off.....=P 4:45 rolls around and it suddenly hits me that i have cat lab... and i also had to go pick up my sister.... my solution to the problem.... take my sister to cat lab... which is precisely wut i did. so as annie and i were pulling at the muscles on our cat.. my sister was quietly drawing.. but then she got SO bored and decided to come by and watch us pull on mrs. cat. mr. steinkamp was shocked and appalled that i'd taken my sister to CAT LAB... and then cracked a joke that she'd have no problem dissecting her frog once she got into the 8th grade after seeing this... haha

so there was my eventful day... gosh it feels like a friday... *sigh*.. i'm glad tomorrow IS friday... *whew

i've decide to write an entry dedicated to my sister. many of you know isabel as a small, cute, and adorable little first grader. my family and i would believe otherwise. one word to describe her: weird

now i'd like to describe some typcial things that occur at my house.

*i'm typing my bio outline when i get depressed thinking about how my anti-ice cream squad decided to let me down so i too decide that the deal is off and i head to the garage to fetch myself some ice cream. when i come back into the house my mom and my sister are singing karaoke. i sit down on the couch and eat my cone while i listening to my six year old sister singing and dancing to elvis songs. suddenly she turns around and i notice that she is singing with a surgical mask on..... my reaction: *shakes head*

* i once again resume my bio-age but decide that i am thirsty so i head downstairs for some water. as i walk by the study....
isabel: BAD girl.. BAD... stop... stay.. there we go.. there we go.. WHOA... STOP STOP!!!!
( i walk over to see wut she's up to.. i peer into the room and see her playing with the new remote control fan that my dad put up)
isabel: the fan is not crowoporasting with me. do you wanna see it work?.. yes? ok... i'll show you.... (she presses the buttons but the light and the fan remain off) ahhhh... BAD GIRL!! Bad... .grrr.... (scratches head) WUT THE!?!?!?! okay... there we go... see?
me: ok u can turn it off now
isabel: *sigh* (presses a few buttons) gahh.. dont be bad or i'll tell my mom!!!!

*my mother signals bed time at around 10ish and isabel drags her little feet and head and walks slowly to my parents room
Mom: y are u going into my room? remember you're sleeping by urself now.
isabel: oh.. duh! o yea.. mom remember u said i could buy that hello kitty book if i wrote 7 pages of chinese? can i get it?
mom: yes.. but u havent written ur chinese yet.. after you write it u can buy it.
isabel: o ok.....*pauses for a second*.... ok mom? can i write my chinese now?
mom: NO!

presently.. my sister just went to sleep... and the house is silent.. no more karaoke.. no more yelling.. just peaceful calm.
*qualities of my sister: her scream is one of those wonderful things that wake me up saturday mornings.. the heavenly stench of her hair motivates me to pick her up everyday...her melodious pounding of keys keeps me going back to her recitals time and time again....
dont get me wrong.. i love my sister and i dunno wut life wud be like w/o her.... i admit.. her strange nature is one of the highlights of my life.

sat.... one word...suck....it was the ugliest monster i'd seen in a long time.. tho.. others wud say otherwise....tired of testing for a while....
moving along...went to eat a pretzel and had a toffenut frap... much anticipated and very satisfactory.
came home and my mom was watching tv....our conversation

mom: hey there's ice cream... go eat one.. and while ur at it.. get me one
(i go and get ice cream... come back with one cone)
mom: hey.. y didnt u get me a cone?
me: this one is for u
mom: hey... y didnt u get urself a cone?

i was tempted.. cuz it's SO hot today.. wut a good day to go wash my car.. i think that's wut i'm going to do... wash my car..^_^ (i just got bird doo on it today too!)

try to say this monotone fashion and say each syllable as if this was one long word.... without taking an extra breath....

everybody believed we would never be look at us up above we are so in love everyday in ur arms baby cant go wrong we are strong look at us now
the best part about having super younger siblings has got to be the food. our pantry is often filled with childhood snacks:...fruit snacks...ritz crackers...cheeze nips... and many other tasty kiddy foods. the down side is having to practice your temperance and not eat all that junk... no matter how much vitamin C they say those fruit snacks have... i still think of them as candy.
i took isabel to piano lessons today.....and man her piano teacher is definitely not wut i expected her to be... so was very ancient and frail looking...and whenever she talks to my sister, it's with great effort to pay attention. (mostly cuz my sister talks a lot....haha) after her lessons we went out for some ice cream... but dont worry... i did NOT eat ice cream.... i got sour patch kids instead. isabel got a strawberry shortcake cone!!! i thought they only had the ice cream bars.. but the CONE!!! whoa...and now... my car has even more crumbs than it previously had....o well we had fun.. and she told me i was nice about 400 bajillion times... so younger sisters rock.
no one went to practice after the pep rally today...only a few.. super ubber dedicated people... and myself attended practice. when i got within 200 meters of the track i was about to turn around and walk away and GO HOME! (... and study...)...but iono.. wut got into me.. my feet just kept walking to the track. Rankin told us that practice wud be easy today..... xcept i've had easy workouts all week... so today's wkout was the most intense i've had all week.. and after running ten 100m... i wish i had changed my mind abt going to practice when i was still 200m away from the track. not only did i leave tired and out of breath... but my shins hurt so bad.. i had to walk to my car...then drive over to the track and pick up my bags.... i'm SO glad that districts are next week... and after that... my season will be over! *whew

now i'll resume my "studying"^_*

The past two days have been very bearable. I've had so much to do that aim hasn't even really, seriously, in any significant way, crossed my mind ^_^..ooo and this no ice cream business is... not so bad. i realize that i actually didnt eat that much ice cream anywayz.....but now that i realize that i didnt b4.. i do have my moments when the cravings get to me.
cat dissection has turned out to be oodles of fun. though the smell still really gets to me and gives me headaches. after lab i came home and my mom had gone out to eat with my sis and they brought back some pho for me.... everytime i eat pho, i'm always reminded of christine and steve's fetish for the stuff..hehe..

man... my show Journey to the Past (chinese satellite) is getting SOOOO good!!! it's got plot, comedy, historical facts, and a whole bunch of other stuff, not to mention Louis Koo is in it!!! (aka my asian brad ^_*) i remember back in the day when i use to watch 3 shows a day... geeze... those were the days.. no hw.. no sats... no bio. and now... life is a bit different.

i realized that yoplaits custard style yogurt is really good. i'm not a big fan of yogurt, but i am a fan of custard.... and custard yogurt rocks!
