a tribute to some HOTT Guys and Girls ~prom~

so after reading about four million people blog about prom....i figured it was my turn.....where to start.......

A.M.
rise and shine early to clean my room....until it literally was sparkling...
then i head off to pick up the dulles guys for our pre-prom operation: "picnic". so i go and pick up alex first...phil second....jeremy last. after picking up jeremy i blind fold the guys...and i must say i had the most cooperative group of guys....(overstatement ladies?)....alex may have stuck my green bear on the outside of my windshield, and phil may have screamed "Ophelia wAng" too loudly until he realized that wasn't my name, and jeremy may have had too much fun making car noises during his "ophie's pimp mobile" ride.....but i am still here alive and updating my blog. after picking all the guys up, glores and bea call me and tell me that they're just going to pick the guys up now.....and i think to myself...uh-oh... i picked em up too early.............
so i take a deep breath and jump into my car. we cruise around in my car and i drive all around lexington to confuse to guys....which worked cuz jeremy thought we were in his neighborhood the entire time....but actually we had drive all around lexington...drove around the mall 3 times and headed over to alex fan's house. so during our car ride i made the guys get out of the car on some random street. i snapped a picture of them... ran into a guy phil knew and then glores calls and tells me she's picking up alex fan. since i still had lotsa time i decided to drive over to the Fan's house and indeed i did run into glores. i peek in her car and i see peter tied up in rope and blindfolded!!! and i see alex....but glores quickly pulls a shirt over his head and ties him up. hehee
after that we get up and drivin again....and after some time the guys start complaining that they're getting car sick....so i decide it's time to head over to the "picnic" site. we went to the arcade...got the guys some tokens and bought em lunch.

P.M.
so i take the dulles crew home and drive melanie and i over to my house where we just sat around watched some homeward bound and this herculean superwoman movie while we waited for the other girls. girls arrive we get ready. we were expecting the guys at 5:30 so we rushed through everything but were ready by 5:30...and no guys.... so then we figured it took the guys longer to get on their suits and hairdos than they anticipated.
guys arrive: it took us a while to get down the stairs cuz we weren't excatly sure how....haha....but we made it down ok....and at the botton of the stairs waiting for us...was a crowd of.....gentlemen....(better looking than yesterday i must say.....^_~) and yes.. i do believe we spent more time snapin shots at my house than at dinner. when we FINALLLY make it out the door we head to vargos. some minor problems...everyone was ok....and off to vargos we went. juice and i had some fun opening car doors for ourselves...which resulted in some "grrrs" on simon and alex's part.....took some pictures as a group....took some pictures of alex and a peacock. ate some green candy...let the "gentlemen" practice some etiquette. food comes.....and alex got to eat "the rock".....mok and jane had some ugly soup....xiao had a water proof 6 yr old camera....guys went crazy in the bathroom...crazy waiter tuckin in ppls tags.....we look at the time....go to prom

the dance
get to adam's mark hotel. arrive at the front... stare at the revolving doors for a minute. juice and simon run in....but ended up going around the door twice...lol....after them alex and i make a run for it....make it in aok and take pictures. we wanted the white haired guy but bummer... we got this weird man instead. dunno wut was wrong with the guys... had no appetite for the food!?!?!? well the ladies forgot abt the guys and went to eat some food.... good fruit.. .and cocktail shrimp ^_^ then the dancin really got started......some guys n dolls dancin like crazies.....some guys busted out with some john lin taught moves.....and unlike cinderella... we left at 1....even though we were trying to get ppl to leave at 12:30 to beat traffic. when we left... being the asians that we are.... we take the center pieces (humongo balloons) and get the money's worth for prom. while walking out of the hotel... wut a funny sight... i was in the front..i turn around and see a mob of crazy asians with giant center pieces walking through the hall....LMBO....(took a picture)

afterwards
we got back to alex's house and he took me home... driving semi-blindly...quite fast....
i got home, i walked up to my room... died of tiredness *snore*. woke up...10:30 the next day.....flew to church....
made lots of unforgetable memories.....thanx to some suave studs....*tear* beautiful girls... wonderful super michelle and vivian...and a mr.Ireland for a roof raising time......

the world goes round and round........

awww my sister is a wimp for tears....hehee she just finished watching this movie (a louis koo movie mind u) and apparently his wife and him were forced to forget each other some how.....and she got so sad that she began to cry and she said to my mom:

(points to eyes) "mom..look"
mom: "oh no.. did u get sand in your eye"
(pause and scratches her head)
isabel: no mom...i'm crying
mom: why are u crying
izz: cuz it's SOOO sad....
heheee

so tonite at dinner... i heard something interesting that was preached in the mandarin service or something.

ask yourself the following three questions:
1. are you happy in the morning?
2. are you happy monday mornings?
3. are you happy when you get criticized?

if the answer to all three questions is yes....you are a very happy person...

i woulda updated abt prom...cept i figured that would take a lot of time so i'll talk about that tomorrow....i needed to do something productive before i began to study for bio ap....SO... stay tune tomorrow for some massive updatage...until next time folks.....good morning...good afternoon...and good night...

and the beat goes on.......

it was hot today. the sun was out and the air conditioning was pumping. the day was bright and the skies were blue and the weather was HOT....those were my initial feelings as i was walking to my car after school. so i was peacefully walking to my car, thinking about how to maximize my time with studying when i got home.....haha jk....when this girl in a mustang is frantically trying to wave people to her car....and my car happened to be next to hers...and she waved me over and asked if i had a jumper cable....and indeed... i do carry a jumper cable in my car... along with a first aid kit...a spare hub cap ...and a buncha other stuff in my trunk. so i bust out my jumper cables and this guy.... who seemed to know what he was doing....plugged up the cables...and for a while.. everything seemed as though it was working... until my feeble 14 yr old car starts making grumbling noices and then.... she was silent. something went wrong and then two cars had dead batteries. so then along comes this guy in a tennis shirt and asked what was wrong and if he could help. so apparently this guy knew what he was doing and so he went and drove his big red truck over and started to start up the mustang again. so as this business is happening, passerbys simon peter walk by and have this perplexed look on their faces and inquires about what is going on. then jeff drives by and after the truck and mustang gets hooked up and everyone is happy, jeff helps start my car up again. and once my car was started back up again....everyone was happy and i went home peacefully attending to my time maximizage....no not really... actually i came home... tired from staying out in the sweltering heat of the may houston weather....and plopped into a giant pile of humongo ikea pillows ^_^

You are so good to me.......

had a really kewl experience today. with all the frustrations that have been going on in my life... i've finally come to terms with everything. the ultimate solution to my every problem is always just... simply.. to pray. today went to dgroup and we had a great time just chattin and relaxing from the everyday pressures of life... and we talked about everything in general ^_^ we were running short on time... so we went our separate ways and decided to pray in our cars. so i'm driving along commonwealth on the way home and i decide to turn down my radio and just.... pray. it was this really awesome experience just to pray out loud and drive at the same time. it was kinna weird praying with my eyes open....but the road was empty and prayer had never been so completely between me and God before. one word: WOW.

God really knows how to provide us with everlasting peace.

hey look.. .it's my computer

i still remember when i got this computer. it was back in the 7th grade when this model of the compaq computers was the quickest there was out there.....i still remember when i use to have this hunka junk in the corner of my little 11x11 room ^_^....and i remember i use to have to pull a 20 foot telephone line from my parents room to my room just so i could hook up the 56K.......and check my email. then after i started downloading songs from my chinese song phase... the computer started to act up and it began to freeze and skip more often....i think the poor thing is going through another phase. ooo.. but my dad moved the computer downstairs onto my desk.... so much roomier and there's a fan above my head. the breeze keeps me awake... and the computer being in the study really prevents sleeping....cuz i realized that i work better in big open spaces... and my comp use to be in a corner upstairs. so we'll c how my outlines go....

spanish ap tomorrow...herm..... that shud be fun... hard.. ..impossible... but.. fun... especially the speaking!
advice for AP spanish takers.
most useful things to say when in doubt:
"Es muy interesante"
"Porque nececite estudiar para el AP"
"muchas cosas"

And So.......

shoes are dumb. i've seen so many shoes today...... i think i'm going to dream about them. shoe shopping has never been fun. it's only fun when you're not planning on shoe shopping but you a find a pair of shoes that you really like and so you buy them. but when you're intentionally going out to buy shoes and you're looking for a specific type of shoe....... you cant ever find it. it's like purse shopping..... when you're looking for a certain type of purse....you cant ever find it. it's when you least plan to shop for a purse that you do. the worse part is always money though. when you look for shoes or purses, you have a mind set of the kind that you want in the perfect price range. but then...IF and when you do find your pair of shoes or the purse, the cost may be the next issue. but then again.... when you find that perfect purse... or perfect pair of shoes......money doesnt matter so much..... there's just so much satisfaction in finding your dream pair of shoes. And so..... i have yet to find my perfect pair of shoes.
that's why shopping without a purpose is so much fun. you dont have anything in mind.... but can possibly end up finding everything you subconciously wanted. anyhoo... enough about shopping.

so this week... i had all the intentions of eating a seafood sub from subway. unfortunately, that didnt get accomplished. i also had all the intentions of doing my friday five on the correct day.....but like my sub.... that was not accomplished... so for all of u who were looking foward to my "friday five" i guess u'll have to get use to disappointment.....for this week anyways. lets hope that i can manage a friday five some time in the near future.

On a brighter note.....i got to eat an Arby's french dip sub and spend time talking with a lotta my friends about everything in general. i love my friends a lot and i appreciate them in every way for just listening to me... and giving me a shoulder to lean on and an ear to talk into. in the same way... i love listening to my friends...i dunno.. i like to just sit around and listen to people talk. wow... it's sunday night again...em.......
cant wait until next saturday ^_~

ahhhh ahhhh ahhhhhhh chooooooooo

yea.. i've been trying to sneeze all day.. not excatly working. then at lunch koon tells me that when you need to sneeze and you cant.. just hit the back of your head. and so i tried that a moment ago...and all the happened was... it suppressed my sneeze....=/

what a crazy crazy crazy week. this has been the most confusing, frustrating week that i've had since my "no hw for 3 weeks" blow over. *sigh* just sorta realized i still have like...8 extra credit bio outlines to do....erugh... plx pray that i'll hang in there.... i have so many outlines that it means i have to do one outline everyday until next thursday. erugh. and APs next week...gotta get crackin on that espanol. i'm trying to get myself mentally prepared for those crazy things. it's only making me tired thinking about how much writing i'll have to do for english, spanish, and bio. in fact... i'm tired now. it felt like such a long week. however, i have to say that i full appreciated that TAKS testing. got a lotta....stuff accomplished. i will surely miss having 3 free hrs to do....pretty much nothing. ^_^

picked isabel up from school when it hit me.....those extended day people know a lot about me. they know wut school i go to...they know my name...they know my birthday...(my sister spread that to the world)...they know my age...they know my parents... they know my sister... they find me in the places that i volunteer....and they know when i take the taks......whoa.. wut happened to privacy? haha...

gonna get chopping on my food and outlines..... *sigh*....i cant wait till may 13th.....when this will all simmer down.....................

Yet another beautiful...and hot day.

the clear blue skies and everything else is nice... awesomeness...wonderfutacular.....in the summer i like to soak in the sun..(minus those gosh awful sunburns) and in the winter... i like to breathe in the cold air. so i guess i just cant hate the changing of seasons... so much to offer... cept spring and fall.... herm... fall= leaves... sprin=flowers.

life is so weird sometimes. you might think that a situation is happening a certain way.....but then when you discover the truth..... it's not at all how you thought it was ...... that's the frustration with life... people think too much..... thinking can sometimes get in the way of everything. another thing about life.....it's definitely full of surprises... some unintended and unwanted... others... pleasing and kewl. but then some just leave u dumb-founded and stupified... and kinna feeling like ur stomach just fell out and ur trying to retrieve all crud that fell out. yea.. i feel like rambling lately..... all that studying is getting to my head.. and i'm letting it out with nonsensical talk.


oooo heeeyyyy... dumplings and egg noodles... 4th time this week..score... gonna go claim my share...

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


Monday, April 28, 2003

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.....^_~

Friday, April 25, 2003

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.. IM me if u wanna read it..hahaa

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!!!!!!

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.

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!!!

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 ^_^

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......

4. What one thing do you need to get done by this time next week?
btw.. my last thing i needed accomplish DID get done. but for next week....i want to be able to live this four day week as though i enjoy school and not just go to school because i want it to be friday.... i think if i have that kind of attitude... i'll be able to cope with school better...
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

Sunday, April 06, 2003

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.

Saturday, April 05, 2003

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!)

Thursday, April 03, 2003

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"^_*

Wednesday, April 02, 2003

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!

Monday, March 31, 2003

I've decided to join in the Steeni tradition and do the "Friday Five" even though it's not excatly friday, and i'm not excatly bored or have free time... i figure.. if i wanted to procrastinate.. there are actually loads of distractions aside from aim....this is one of them.. i promise..i wont blog in excess....(omg.. my dad's watching the spanish channel...weirdo...)

1. What was your most memorable moment from the last week?
when i accidentally gave the lunch lady a receipt instead of a dollar but was honest enough to go back and pay for my lunch.

2. What one person touched your life this week?
my sister for checking up on me to see if i was ok and for sticking little notes through the bathroom when i showered.

3. How have you helped someone this week?
i willingly put up the dishes without complaint.. therefore i helped my mom out so that she wudnt have to complain abt me not putting away the dishes.

4. What one thing do you need to get done by this time next week?
eat a pretzel

5. What one thing will you do over the next seven days to make your world a better place?
i go with steeni... sleep.... one less trouble maker...hehe..oh and do ubberly awesome on the SATs so that money is not wasted... ( i guess i cud recycle newspapers!?!?)

i have succumbed to lowly away message reader~ my only source to the outside world. i am no longer an aim-user but an aim-onlooker. actually it's rather amusing looking at the buddy list and not being able to enter into the world of aim.....or not...
i actually believe i am making the right choice.. hahaa..it turns out that i have a load of work and a very confusing bio test on wednesday. today was a weird day. i knew i was at school but it didnt feel as thought i was actually there.
i had a nightmare about aps last night. i dont remember the content of my dream....but i know i woke up very confused...
i am really sleepy even thought i just woke up from a nap
my legs hurt
i'm being random now
i think i'll go eat dinner
or work on some reading workshop.
sounds good

Sunday, March 30, 2003

DarkJediPete: whoa! a week of no aim...I would go kill myself :-P hehe, well good luck at it!
at steven's request.. sharing the laughs

many of you know the story of the mexican ranger on my letter jacket... an incident after sunday school today.

(while jeremy, mok, steven, glores... points & laughs at scary man on my jacket.)

xiao: (looks at my jacket and sees scary man) wut is that?!?! is that a club or something
steven: uh.. xiao.. do u go to clements? that's your mascot!
*laughs*the signature head shake*

big thanx to daphane chang for helping me lose 1000 brain cells by smacking her hand at 100mph at my forehead.

make those evil dreambook signers stop!!!
as if one cold day were not enuf, i decide to spend yet another cold day outside with the ymca crew. we had a lil team building wutchamacalit. push the cold aside and i guess i had a pretty good day. there was this tyte guitarist who played some jars of clay and bebo norman, it was pretty kewl.. .good voice. ( he played love song for a Saviour.) then we played some perdy fun games. human foosball. you actually get strapped into an inflated foosball looking thing and you slide around and kick a ball, it was fun but violent and now i have bruises on my leg. then there was this relay thing which consisted of canoeing, figuring out riddles, rope climbing, and running. guess which part of that i took place in..... u got it.. running. there was also an inflatable where u had to climb up these brick looking things. the team i was on the "J crew" got third place over all. not only was it fun but we also got chik-fil-a for lunch and cheesecake for snack... so basically the food once again made staying out in the cold worth it.

*sigh* SATs next week.... for real this week.. i shall be joining the anti-aim campaign (begins tomorrow)... if u ever see me online.... yell, scream, kick, beat me up... i give u permission... no aim this week (away messages dont count)... unless i have everything completely accomplished...(which never happens... so u can almost always be sure that i'm lying if i tell u i'm done w/ my work.) however, after this week... i shall be able to rest easy... sorta.. until my score comes out.. herm... well i have some stuff to do... lotsa stuff... so i'll make like a plane and jet.

Saturday, March 29, 2003

so... i got to skip 5th n 6th for track meet @ Foster. Foster has the worst rep for having windy meets. last yr... foster was where i ate ground and added to my battle wounds by 2 and it was the first and coldest meet. this yr at foster, the weather was FREEZING and it's the last meet b4 districts. i ran horidly and mita rolled my ankle. then my shins were buggin me the entire time. and ever since i landed on my arm that time at fellowship, it's been acting up. for instance, when i move my arm around sometimes my elbow feels weird, and there's this strange pain that's not really a pain but it's is... so it's just sore.... i seriouly think i mita injured something serious. but then i talk to my dad and he gives me a typical dad's answer "with time it will heal". but dad knows all... so i guess he mite be right. the only good thing abt my meet today was buying nachos after my races and getting free hot chocolate. and i guess i had a blast chillin (literally) with my track folk.... we're pretty strange at meets...u think u a person... wait'll u see em at track meets.
while varsity meets are totally awesome to go to... jv meets are more fun to run in (only cuz i medal..hehe) and clements is quite the sight. we have like.. a unintentional routine. we get off the bus, walk to the track and sit smack dab in the middle of the field. then after about 15 minutes, while the other teams are doing a team warm up, about five girls go and do a warm up lap while the other 99% of the team has already whooped out their hw and starts studying for tests. oh and i remember last yr at districts ... it was really sunny and SO many ppl sat out and tanned... they actually brought tanning lotion... quite a site.
herm.. my fingers smell funny... and i shocked my parents when i wasnt asked to put away the dishes but did it by myself anywayz...i actually surprised myself.. then i went to take a nap.

OpHeEeNieEe: but it's better to have studied and kinna forgot than not study at all
DarkJediPete: haha paradox :-P
OpHeEeNieEe: o no! am i really becoming some literary freak?
DarkJediPete: oh dear.....
DarkJediPete: it's probably a phase :-P bio...english....bio...english :-P

*vigorous head shaking......
Had one of those moments today. so i had to drive home at lunch to get my running shoes so that coach wudnt beat me like an egg at practice. when i got back for lunch, i had to pay my AP dues. after i paid, i had my receipt and a dollar bill in one hand. then i went to buy my lunch. after getting my lunch i went to pay for my lunch and i handed the lunch lady wut i thought was my dollar. when i returned to the lunch table, i was going to put my receipt away. instead of seeing my receipt when i looked at my hand, i saw my dollar. apparently, i had given the lunch lady my ap receipt instead of my dollar. so i go back to the lunch lady and i told her that i accidentally handed her my reciept instead of the dollar and all she said was, " o really?" and then she retrieved my receipt and said, "o yes!"... i cant believe she didnt even notice.....

presently my legs are in so much pain.. it hurts to walk and it hurts to drive. when i push down on the accelerator, an intense rush of pain shoots through my shins. when i walk up the stairs, it feels as if i placed burning coals on my shins. as i was running today at track, i dont even think i felt my legs at all. it was kinna like running on air, but at times i cud feel the pain. this is wut i get when i forget to ice my shins for 4 nights. so at the moment, i'm also icing my shins and my legs are regaining conciousness and sensitivity. whew!

gahhh... i'm missing 5th n 6th for a track meet on friday. it's terrible cuz i'll miss bio and then i know i wont understand something or other..then i'll fail the test and then i'll not get exemptions and then... and then.. i cud go on.. *sigh*..haha...i'm really not that bad of a spaz.... i'll miss spanish but.. eh.. that's ok.. taking the quiz in the morning...and missing spanish is actually a plus... next to geocrapy, spanish feels like the longest class of the day. even bio doesnt feel as long and bio is actually the longest class of my day. i think i'm gonna be productive and eat dinner...

PEEEYEWWWW.... that pretty much sums up my cat dissection experience. overall though.. the whole dealio wasn't so bad. got to flip the cat a coupla times and pulled lotsa fat off of it. and our cat isnt that ugly... well it's ugly but not as bad as some. oh.. and the cat's name is Mrs. Cat... (annie named it..hehe) but as glores and i were examining the cat... we cudnt really distinguish whether the cat was male or female.... so.. mr. cat... mrs.cat.. iono...

*a sign of too much cat dissection...(already)

(as i was taking gloria home.. in my car)

o: yea.. mabbe those boxes people were carrying into steinkamps room were boxes fulla cats!
g: eww... u mean we were carrying cats
o: o man.. hahaa
(gloria sees a black moving bag on the side of the road)
g: whoa is that a cat
o: in the bag?
g: yea... it was moving!
o: we've been dissecting cats a little too long... we're seeing things now!
g: but it was really moving

hehee....i've decided that from now until may 12.. it'll be pure torture.. it will be stress left and right... and i was bitter about something in spanish.. but i dun think it was important since...i dun remember it anymore. but anyhoo...for me.. stress is only stress when u think it's stress.
Oh and i think my track coach has officially gone insane. today one of my fellow hurdlers went up to him and told him that she coughed up blood last night and that she was coming down with a cold. his reply was, "oh ok" and when i asked to go to the nhs meeting.. he wudnt let me go! then this other hurdler pulled her hamstring and he just looked at her and looked away and said... "go and go through another seven hurdles." track is not wut it use to be. I remember track was fun, coaches were motivating, we got track shirts. ever since i started becoming a ranger athelete (w/ rankin as coach) we haven't had track shirts!!! gahhh... and i've run slower and slower...well mabbe that's me...
OH OH... chinese dessert downstairs... sudden desire for some of that good stuff....

Herm.. i have some pretty strange ppl signing my dreambook....a Jaroslav Perkl and Private Krankenversichenrung.....where do all the random people come from?
Today wasn't so bad i suppose... kinda had to get back into the fling-a-things. geocrapy was... well to say the least, she moved my scholar report up 3 days, so that doesnt make me too happy, that's one more thing i have to deal with today... great gotta go look up stuff on Genghis Khan and Kublai Khan....^_*
i realize now why i'm doing so bad in pre cal.. i think it's cuz i start to zone out when the numbers get too numerous for me.. or they become too big. Like today, i'm not sure i knew what was going on... something about binomial, trinomial something or others....pascal's triangle? *shrug
english however was kewl... got a 95 on video project!!!!! ^_^ all those sleepless nights (more like.. the sleepless night) really paid off.. *whew OH OH.. and i managed to pass my second english test of the year... with a high grade i mite add... very good english day.
bio.. was eh... bio.. need i say more? a couple-a quizzes tomorrow... which i shud go study for rite abt now... grrr OH but get to chop chop the cat cat tomorrow muwahahah!!! ^_^
so now.. i'll be off...i will be lurking around the house aimlessly trying to avoid the pressures of school work.... actually.. i think my nite will consist of ... bio... genghis khan.. some more bio scattered here or there... we'll see... have a great week~

when going to the bathroom... silence is golden
(names have been censored to prevent from.... yea....)

Betty Sue: do you know wut i was thinking of during the "silence"
Mary Jane: wut?
Betty Sue: cry me a river
Mary Jane & Betty Sue: HAHAHAHHAHAAH LOBO

Funny the way things work sometimes....
today i came home and i decided that i should start working on some reading workshop stuff... so... i set out to find my book. When i went to the location where i thought my book was, it was nowhere to be found. So i looked and looked and looked and looked for several hours. I searched far and wide and in some pretty weird places for my book so that i could do my homework. After several hours of searching i gave up for a while and went to watch tv. after my show ended, i walked upstairs to search for my book again... and again. Finally, i stopped in the middle of the room and i prayed earnestly to God that He would help me find my book. so... disheartedly.. i walked to my clothes, which needed folding and i found a letter on the floor which i'd opened, when i bent down to retrieve the letter i saw my book!!! it always surprises me when my wee little prayers are answered. it teaches me one simple thing...when in any sort of trouble, big or small, pray and he wil hear you and answer...even if it's just about a book.

so... the break is almost officially over... yea.. i do believe that i am sad...but life goes on and so does the school year... cant wait until next friday!!! more break!!! woothoo!!

Yesterday was a nice day. Didnt do too much after my dental experience. I came home ate dinner... kinna just chilled around the house. Then my parents went to play tennis and my sis and i stayed home and watched the sound of music.... wut a wonderful movie. It's one of those literally heart warming family films that never grow old. Then later on that night i headed over to debs for our gno....yea... gotta love those... and man... iono how ppl lose weight playing ddr... u definitely dont burn much...
However, i gotta admit i've never had so much fun eating someones leftover dinner. I tell ya... every taiwanese mother is a fantastic cook... never met a bad cooking one. I dont remember who's bright idea it was to prank call... ahem.. ppl... but somehow in the mist of my eating leftovers ... i became involved in the scheme....*sigh*.... and then... some know wut happened after that....i've never been hung up on so many times in one night... quite an experience....
anyhoo... woke up the next day and it was one fine morning.... thai cottage... good food... emm... the salad...then after that...most of us just chillaxed... and then.. we headed over to shopping... which was also quite an experience...*wink*
and my newest discovery.. .i have a fetish with the song....look at us now... good song ... o goodness... plx dont let it be a deja vu of secret love... *shakes head*...

Just had the worst dental experience of all dental experiences. In the past, i've had the reputation of having the worst dental experiences in my family. My first dental experience in Texas, my dentist filled the wrong teeth. Then that guy got fired for something... and i got a new lady. This lady made my gums bleed so bad they wouldnt stop for a day or so. Then today.... my newest/ 3rd dentist not only made my teeth bleed like a river...but also found 6 cavities and my jaw and my teeth are so incredibly sore that i dont even feel like eating or drinking anything.... for the time being...presently.. my mouth is in pain and i think i need an ice pack. As i've discovered from past experiences i end up with more problems than i being with when i go to the dentists office. As if teeth pains wasn't enuf... my allergic reaction got worse... i woke up at 3am and my eye was so big... well not that big.. but it was an abnormal size and shape... not something i bargin for when i'm doing a late nite bathroom call....*sigh*... and spring break is going quite fast... so i must be headed off to do some bio now... trying to drop the procrastination act.... anyhoo... hope everyones day is much more pleasant filled than mine has been thus far.

It's always pretty kewl to sit back and think how awesome God is. It's pretty kewl how perfectly His plan falls into place. It's pretty amazing how blessed we are to be able to have so much peace and hope in such an awesome Savior. In the mist of our struggles we can so peacefully fall asleep or eat donuts and such. It's a big blessing to know that even though we're at war... we can lead our lives almost as if we'd gotten up yesterday before anything had happened.
Spring Break....has been quite eventful thus far. Sunday went to the rodeo w/ Ngs and family. Steph and i ate a gigantic turkey leg and funnel cake.... and drank lots of coke... watched a few pig races and rode on a roller coaster... and got jinxed on the zipper... when i said.." oh this ride's not so bad...".. come monday morning.. i awoke and went w/ my dad to go pick up my car... and we headed to corpus christi to go camping. We arrive and...after some time... we had a bbq... chinese style.. w/ mongolian beef and squid.... and... some normal stuff.... tuesday... we did a lot of driving around to places .. getting out and hanging at the site for about 30 minutes, getting back in the car and head somewhere else. Then we had dumplings for dinner... and after dinner.. the food musta got to my head becuz ... i was really nutty and insane... iono wut happened.. ask michelle... i still cant believe i was that much a crazy...but personally i think it's michelle's fault that i became such a nut... one too many days w/ her.

and i think my sister found herself a new "special friend" haha.. infact her special friend is over rite now.. and they're playing.. Zelda... no wait... diddy kong... iono... video games. It's quite cute..hahaa..OH OH>.. and now her and the special friend are eating popsicles... o yea.. gotta clean my room.. been putting that off... *sigh*...

as i sit here and stare at my light....i'm thinking of the sunny beaches of california. I wish i was boogie boarding right now....those were the days....i'm also craving a fruit filled jolly rancher lolli pop...*sigh*... that must be a sign of being tired. enuf of accidental sleeps.....down with them.
herm.. i cant blog rite now.. iono.. not feeling the blog vibes... oh.. but i do know that the Killer Pizza at Wetzel's Pretzels are very tasty.

so tomorrow.. i'm going to attempt to awake early... actually I am waking early to go ....yea.. RUN....hahaa.. just cant get enuf of that running....wut can i say.. running rocks....and now.. sleep..so i can wake, get ready, eat and have energy tomorrow....

Tuesday, March 11, 2003

a BIG AMEN.....the english project is OVER!!!! holy caroley... an entire month... an entire lifeless, sleepless month....and the day after the project was due...my group finally pulled through...and we managed to complete our master piece. ^_^ so now... we make plans to celebrate.

it's very sad that the weather is getting warmer. no more winter clothes and no more cool weather and no more lotsa stuff..... in comes the humid...hot... texas weather. *sigh*...
of late... i've been having my weird sleeping fits again.... bed at 8 or 9...wake up at 2, 3, or 4.... and yesterday was the worst.. cuz usually i have some hw done b4 i accidentally conk...but yesterday i conked and i hadn't done any hw...but i managed to pull through..
oh and at last thursdays track meet i finally managed to get a medal!!! ahhhh no more 4th places for me!! *sigh* but the coach let me off the hook for running the 300 hurdles cuz we had some ubber soccer girls run instead. Funny now when i have to run the 300 i never wanna...but then when i didnt have to run them... i kinna wanted to.... o well.. i'll definitely get the chance to run them again....

one project down... one more to go... bio project... we get to present some stuff...and now my group is coming over and we gotta work on some coleoptile stuff... sadly the corn seeds i planted have fungus growing on them.. but that's ok.. the experiment will work out....
i've officially been placed in the worlds most unlucky people category for the time being.

the words of someone that matters to me....

life is short and friends are precious. There are numerous people that come in and out of your life, but few remain forever. Now that you have the opportunity, spend your time wisely with the people that matter the most.

Today while walking to my car i heard a funny conversation.....

girl number 1: you know how some couples start to look alike after a while?
guy: yea.. that's really true... like so and so looks like her boyfriend and so and so looks like his girlfriend
girl number 2: now that u mention it... they do look alike.
girl number 1: good thing i dont look like anyone right now... i'd hate sharing a face with someone else
guy: haha that's stupid.
girl number 2: do i look like Joe?
guy: mama?
girl number 2: NO my boyfriend!!!!


Tuesday, March 04, 2003

At this moment in time... i am full to the rim. Which prolly isnt good cuz i almost threw up today anyhoo...and now i stuffed myself with fajitas *sigh*....food...tempting. Today was a good day. Pretty much stress free...minus the insane track practice....but i managed to not nap in the afternoon...picked up my sister from school...and ate Sushi, fajitas, and chicken for dinner. I guess the only thing really left to do to make my day complete is my homework. For starters... i have a bio project... and then i have an english project to work on... then i gotta prepare my "Kitchen" essay for Ethan Frome.. which btw is the first book i actually really enjoyed reading for class this year.

Oh.. and the newest book i'm reading for reading workshop is called The Inn at Lake Devine by Elinor Lipman
The book is about a girl named Natalie Marx who is Jewish. In 1962, her family decides to take a vacation at the inn at Lake Devine. However, after asking for information about the inn, the family receives a reply that "people who return year after year are Gentiles". As a result of this reply, Natalie is furious and decides to prank the manager of the inn with utterly cruel jokes. So for many years, she plays awful pranks on the manager, Ingrid Berry. She pretends to be the daughter of a mr. Edgarly (who is actually a man who was on trial for murdering his wife). She uses his name to pretend to be an interested customer, but then she sends Ingrid Berry newspaper clippings of his murder trial....so for these many years... Natalie plays pranks such as these. (which get even worse)
One summer, she meets this super annoying girl named Robin Fife whose family is planning a vacation at Lake Devine and asks Natalie to come along. How could she pass up such an opportunity? So she agrees to go and see what this Ingrid Berry is really like... and to express mabbe even more hatred towards her for being a Gentile and hating Jews (so she thinks). What she didnt take into account was falling in love with Mrs. Berry's eldest son.....

I have decided not to let the "Mrs.Hemme's English Project" get the best of me. Instead, i'm thinking of pleasant thoughts about our finished product and how wonderfully beautiful it shall be. Yesterday was an eventful sunday. to start off my day.... i totally ...almost completely forgot my lines for the children's drama...*sigh*...my acting skills are getting rusty... my sister on the other hand.. whoa.. my super powers transfered to her... she's like... "future super actress" of America. My english group and i were filming this one scene where i'm my sister's mom and i get to beat her up. She was quite good... i must say... made our scene ever more realistic......
then we had our auction scene... which.... some of u know about.. cuz... u were in it.....but eh.. a BIG THANKS to you all for helping out.....i know i was asking A LOT when you had to be serious...but yea... u DO have it in you to be serious... bravo bravo!

whenever i write something on my blog or something on my away message that i say i'm gonna do... i think i jinx myself.. cuz i never end up doing it.. and i end up sleeping instead....so... i'm not gonna say wut i plan to do...and i'm just gonna go do my intending action..... perhaps that way there will be no jinxing.... i m sick n tired of all this falling asleep unintentionally business...and not getting stuff done...
Oh.. and the next time anyone sees me buying chocolate... snatch it away from me.. cuz... one of these days.. it's gonna kill me.... oh.. but today.. i ate an entire chocolate bar... and no hives.. or sore throats or anything.. i think my psycological allergy to chocolate may be coming to a close....i guess now... i just dont like it....

wow... so i haven't updated....in a while. herm... and i have nothing to say. I had a track meet today. I woke up at 6:20, got to school at 6:45, the bus left at 7:00 and we headed to Bay City. We arrived at around....eh...8tish something. Oh... and my day gets better.... i sit around and wait from 8tish to around 1:45 before i run my first race. By that time, my fanny was froze, my toes were froze and so was my nose. Like the rest of my teamates, i was all bundled up in a couple layers of sweats and pillows and blanket. Nevertheless.... we were still shivering from the cold weather....which did not get better...on the contrary..it got worse. But then i did run a good 300m hurdle race..got second in my heat ^_^ Finally i arrived home....and went to english project a few minutes after and.....we filmed 2 scenes a million times.....cuz... something went wrong everytime... but it's kewl... we had a blast...i got to be a mean, tyrant mother......

so my week up to today....*sigh*... excessive napping...and eh...memory loss... that about sums it up.
Oh.. and a BIG BIG BIG thanx to my three musketeers for praying....and getting me covered...loving ya lots

i cant begin to comprehend my own tiredness....but the nite is still young... going to do wut i do best....

Granola bars and cold pizza are definitely on my best food in the world list.

Friends are like granola bars and cold pizza... they bring flavor to your life.

If you asked my what some of my favorite hobbies are.... i cud name a few that i have on a weekly basis

*hysterical laughter
*acts of the idiotic nature within
*stooopid incidents with joy ho gah pung yow
*running like a moron through a parking lot with J. Lo

oh .... staci oriko went secular. herm...oh and i love the newsboys song- He Reigns. It's one of those "let's turn on the base to full blast and shout to the Lord" kind of songs... haha... that's like a happy song.

The weirdest thing happened like a few weeks ago. I was having a really, extremely, horid day, and for some reason things that usually dont annoy me began to get really annoying and i just wanted to sit in a hot tub and tone out for a while. So then i was driving somewhere with the really annoyed attitude and suddenly "I Can Only Imagine" came on the radio at precisely the right memoment.. cuz i was just abt to change the station and i actually didnt wanna listen to that song but i was too lazy to reach down and press a button so i left it and i dont regret leaving it. Cuz when i heard the first line of the song, it just helped me realize how meaningless it is to be setting my eyes on things that annoy me in the world. Then i thought about how amazing being in heaven will be and bam i was feeling so peaceful and i got this automatic smile on my face....and then i started smiling, laughing, and crying at the same time. God's peace is one of the kewlest feelings in the world... and music can be so powerful... too kewl.. just had to share that....okay... i'm really heading off to bed...
jdaVII: i had to dig into my toilet a couple of days ago

jdaVII: apparently my toilets like an antique

I love it when God works in mysterious ways. You know those little things that happen and at the moment, you think nothing of it, but then you realize how it ties into something else and BAM you finally get to see what God's plan was all along. There is a reason for everything. praise the Lord
me: i tend to remember random stuff like that
steeni : haha yeah you were always the "remember when.." when no one else remembered type of person =P

I walked down the stairs monday afternoon when i got home from school. When i had reached the ground floor, i turned to my right and saw my fish tank. Inside the fish tank was a foreign object.....it was a my pretty doll house mansion....inside my fish tank. So i approach my dad and ask, "what's the doll house doing in the fish tank?" My dad replies, "your sister said that the little fish were afraid of the big fish so she decided to let them have her doll house so they could hide from the big fish."
Apparently, my dad bought some big fish this weekend... and they're not compatible with our guppies... but being the wacko my dad is...he's convinced that he can make them compatible. My sister's solution to the problem: My Pretty Doll House Mansion.

I think... this is my accident prone year. First i take a crash for it at fellowship saturday. I got that checked up... and apparently... i bruised up my entire left side pretty badly....but not bad enough to stay out of workouts. So then today at track, we finally have a semi- easy workout. Almost toward the end of the hurdle workout the hurdlers were pretty fatigued. Some left without doing their last 10 hurdles while others were too weak to stand up. As for me, i was in the too weak to stand up category...but when the coach raised his hand for me to run... i ran anyways. By the 5th hurdle... i had to put on my war face to get me through becuz i simply didnt have the energy left to finish.....but i pressed on... and then the world came crashing down when i reached the 8th hurdle..... in other words... i did "eat" ground. I crashed over the hurdle, landed on my head, and skid across my right side. So now... i have a bruised up left side.. and a scrapped up right side.

Odd years are no fun for me. and oh hey... this year is 2003... and lookie... 2 injuries... in the course of 5 days. *shakes head*

I think that parents having a vacation and students not having a vacation is completely un-called for!!!! Would you believe that my parents have the day off tomorrow....when we have to go to school.... i never did understand why students in Texas dont get presidents day off. Can anyone tell me why? Man.. when i came crashing down last night during the amoeba game.... i really did come crashing down. I have this giant purple spot on my hip... and it's this really great purple color.... and everytime i see it.. i want to barf... sure u wanted to know that. Then my mom was telling me... according to chinese remedy... when u injure urself.. ur not suppose to take a bath for like.. a week.. yeah right! I do not wish to make the world suffer by being a human stink bomb. (which i told my mom btw...and she said "Ophelia... when u grow up.. ur gonna have arthritis!") Then my fingers started to swell and everytime i touch a key while i'm typing... my fingers tingle.... fun. So i got my dad to write me note so that i wouldnt have to do my track workout tomorrow.. just to make him more happy cuz.. he thinks i like... cracked my bone.. which he claims heals within 24 hrs.. which means.. i'm healed.. but... just really really sore and the ache is moving up my arm.. and it's starting to feel... rather funny. So now.. that i'm done...procrastinating.. i'm gonna get back to my ever fun and exciting geography project...which i must say.. is turning out to be quite beautiful.....have a great week.
herm... can i NOT trust NE one any more!?!?!? .... u know who u are.... ur up to something.. and i dont like it... more cruelty! i think i'm still a lil deaf from this morning... shame on u!

*DEEP sigh* I had a wonderful time with Brad ^_^ I spent my valentines in my living room.. on a couch..eating cantelope... and staring at Brad.

wow... now i remember why i have to watch meet joe black sparingly.....i do not have the eye water to watch that too often. My eyes run like a water fountain when i watch that movie... and i dont know why. I've watched it like....5..6..7..8 times... and EVERY SINGLE time... i'm a nut!

after the movie
HeyLookItsXiao: it'll be funny if u dreamt of brad... getting out of a car
HeyLookItsXiao: followed by an old lady
OpHeEeNieEe: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

oh.. ur cruel.....

Oph: stop jacking my lines!
Jack: <---look @ name

hehe.. just reading my tagboard...

Happy Valentines day! It's funny... Valentines is like...my third or fourth favorites celebration....
1.Christmas/ B-day
2. Thanksgiving
3. Chinese New Years/ Valentines

But.... pink is my number one least favorite color...and i got 2 pink ribbons from the track meet... grrr

Who needs a valentine when we've all already got the Ultimate Valentine every single day of our lives?

Funny thing... I've been told that i dance like like Julia Stiles. Then today... my mom said that i sing like Kelly Rowland...and my sister says i sing like Avril Lavigne... my dad says Charlotte Church... but i dont think he knows who that is. But i think when you're singing.... to a song.. you tend to imitate that persons voice...so thats prolly y they get that impression.

o yay... i'm looking foward to my free breakfast tomorrow! herm.. gonna go watch a movie now...^_^
This one goes out to all the beautiful women out there

~Beauty of a Woman~
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears,
The figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman must be seen from her eyes,
Because that is the doorway to her heart,
The place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman Is not in a facial mole,
But true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives,
The passion that she shows.
The beauty of a woman
With passing years -- only grows.

on the way to the track meet my coach.. who is a man

Rankin: Okay... u all understand that... afterall we are ALL girls here.
girl team: *blank stares at coach*
Thank you to the person that prayed that i wouldn't fall at the meet today, because i didn't fall. Praise the Lord! I hate that nervous feeling right before a race.. and ur teeth get all cold and you're shivering from the nervousness. BUT the feeling goes away and hopefully you were satisfied with your race. I guess i was really scared it'd get really windy and i'd pass out or something crazy like that when running the 300s. I'm thankful for starting the season out strong. i did really well for a jv meet... and for a first meet of the season.. it was my personal best... and that makes me happy. But man.. once i start running with varsity... i'm gonna get owned.......I await my ribbons tomorrow!

*BIG yawn*

finally the blessing fall upon me! *sigh*... i managed to finish all my pre-cal out in the humid terrain of the Dulles track. so therefore... no hw rite now... until tomorrow... wut a wonderful feeling! Okay yea.. geocrapy project with my lazy bum freshman partner. *shakes head*.... but i've been too lazy to do that ... whoopsies...so yea.. i'm tired.. and i'm gonna jet now... gnite!

This week has been too long and it seems there is still so much more of it to go. I miss sleeping in my bed. It's so weird waking up in the morning and finding yourself on the couch, floor, bathroom, etc.....
Anyhooz... tomorrow is the dreaded.....most terrifying day of each year of my life. Yes.. it is the first track meet of the season.

Balanced. You accept your emotions as normal and
are not overly happy nor depressed. You are
emotionally balanced and should find peace in
the way you deal with life situations. Your
emotions are normal and well understood. You
see the light in the dark.


How Emotional Are You?

Today at dinner, my sister's reaction to the pictures in the church directory

(sees Eric Chu's picture) Isabel: Hey look! that's Shaft!
(sees Jeremy Chu's picture) Isabel: Hey look! that's Batman!
(sees Alex Fan's picture) Isabel: Hey look! That's Googly-Woogly Bear!
(sees Alex Yang's picture) Isabel: Hey look! That's Talker Weirdo!
you know you go online too much when your fingers automatically type in the web address of the sites you go to most frequently. For once, i think it'd bring me great happiness to have my hw completely done before getting online. But looking back on my past year and a half's experience, hw being finishable is not in my dictionary. I either have days where i dont have hw.... (which happens quite rarely) or i get real lazy and finish my hw the period b4 it's due. so herm.. i'm feeling a lil ambitous... mabbe.. for a week... i can finish my hw before i do anything that is a distraction.......shucks that sounds hard.... but hey.. it's worth a try... if i do manage it for a week... at least i can say i'd done it before. I figure the key to being able to finish all my work... is to ... not take naps.... ok yea.. imma go do hw now.... while i'm still semi-awake.. *sigh*
