Scariest moment of my life...

Pam, Gladys, Rona, and I had a late dinner/super early breakfast on Thursday night/Friday morning, the last day of finals. We couldn't get in the pub because everyone and their moms were there, and Tigerheat didn't really happen because we kinda fell asleep. So Denny's was the place to be. After a nice and pleasant meal, we decided to go to RiteAid at 3:30am to get some stuff (yes, stuff). We got our crap, walked out of the store, and was stopped by an old man who seemed a little shady. He didn't come from a car or anything, so we figured he came from the street.

He stopped us and said, "Excuse me girls, I'm gonna have to ask you to do me a favor."

In my head I was thinking, it's either he's gonna ask for money or try to convert us to some religion or sumtin.

Then he says, "I have to show you something."

He shows us his hands, and I saw abnormally big-blistered and scary looking hands (Rona said there was blood but I guess I was too scared to notice) and then all of sudden we were flat-out screaming at his face and running back in Rite Aid. Everything happened so fast the only thing I remembered at that moment was Gladys tripping by the door (because it wouldn't open fast enough for us to run inside) and me thinking "OMG OMG OMG Rite Aid can't be closed it's 24 hours why isn't the door opening?!?! I will force this door open if i had to!!!

So we were hysterically telling the Rite Aid workers that there's this weird man outside, and we hella screamed at his face and ran, and that we're scared shitless. We went farther in the store and waited there while we watched the man go in the store and leave. One of the workers said he was jus asking for cigarettes and left. So finally we decided to leave. We were a little hesitant to come out of Rite Aid coz the workers said he's still out there. One of the workers said she doesn't know him personally but her sister does. She said he's been in the hospital or sumtin like that. They were all offering to walk us out to the car, but all the workers were female too so we were still kinda scared. There was this one guy in the store buying something and he looked kinda shady too but we walked out with him to our car. I was so scared that night that I had to sleep with Rona. I can't believe I'd be that scared. Hahaha.

So now I'm paranoid about random people in the streets trying to talk to you out of nowhere. I was at the grocery this weekend with my mom and there was this guy in the parking lot who looked a little shady. I told my mom to park on the other side because I was scared of the man. She's like, no we're fine just walk in the store really fast. I was a little hesitant to get out of the car, but I did it. I got in the store safe and sound. Mayn I think I'm scarred for life. I don't think I'll get over it anytime soon. I think I might need therapy.

So my roomate kinda inspired me to blog about something real. I mean deep, intense, and raw emotions poured out. Haha okai maybe not. But I was thinking, what if I did blog about all the emotions or issues I've been going through? What if I just let it all out for everyone to read? I always wonder what will happen if I do. I'm scared.

Random thoughts...

San Diego was funfunfun! Thanx PASS!

And once again, Venice you don't know how terribly sorry I am! Next time I swear I won't be that dumb!

Saw Hide and Seek this weekend. It was aaaayt. It was one of those, "ooohhh okai yeah I kinda saw that coming" movies. Not as scary as I thought it would be.

Completely unproductive this weekend. Once again, I'm screwed for this week.

Since I turned the tv on at around midnight, I've seen the Ordinary People video at least ten times in the last two hours.I don't know what they're trying to do to me but it's like, okai I get it! Geez.

Time to sleep children.

You Are a Retrospective Soul

The most misunderstood of all the soul signs. Sometimes you even have difficulty seeing yourself as who you are. You are intense and desire perfection in every facet of your life. You're best described as extremely idealistic, hardworking, and a survivor. Great moments of insight and sensitivity come to you easily. But if you aren't careful, you'll ignore these moments and repeat past mistakes. For you, it is difficult to seperate the past from the present. You will suceed once you overcome the disappoinments in life. Souls you are most compatible with: Traveler Soul and Prophet Soul

What Kind of Soul Are You?

The day I skinned my knee

Do you remember when you were younger how much you like playing and running around all day? Aaah those days when you would be running so fast then you'd fall and skin your knee, then you would cry, but your mom would give you candy (or money haha) so that everything will feel better. So that happened to me today. Except I was at a parking lot and I wasn't playing or running, and my mom didn't give me no candy or money. I was just walking peacefully right behind my sister and the stupid little gutter thing came out of nowhere and then boom, i tripped and fell and skinned my knee. So there I was on all fours, and all I could think about was, "OMG my jeans." Good thing not a lot of people saw, just a couple girls who were pretty nice coz they were all like omg are you okay are you okay. Mayn that sucked. My knee doesn't look that bad though. It felt like it was bleeding to death, but I was just being a drama queen. That's my story of the day. Now back to studying!

I just got my midterm from one of my Management classes. I didn't do too well =(. I rilly need to get it together. I haven't been getting the most exciting grades since fall. Makes me think twice about the committments I've made this quarter. I think it's time to focus.

Today, Monday
Definition: Worst day of the week. Officially the worst day of work.

I've never gotten so many paper cuts until today. I wana quit my job.

Randomness....

It's only the third week of the quarter and I'm already behind. Mayn.

I don't know exactly how I'm gonna survive this quarter. There's so much stuff to do. I love it.

I was sick last week coz of the weather change. Then I got a little better. Then I got sick again when I went to the arc. Then I got a little better. And now I'm kinda sick.

I bought my first beer in the pub. It was ayt. Actually it was kinda strong so I had to rest for a little bit before I went to a meeting. Haha.

Tigerheat Thursday night was funfunfun. I got my first wristband and drink with Arnie. Mayn that drink was gross. It looked good coz it was blue, but it was too strong. I could kinda taste the sweetness but barely. But I had fun!

California Science Center on Friday to see the Body Worlds exhibit before it ends. That was excitingtimes. Some of it was gross, but most of it was pretty interesting. It was like woah. That's crazy. You should all go see it! Oh wait, I think it's over today. Oh well. It was a fun and educational experience. Haha.

Home food was awesometimes this weekend. We had barbequed everything Saturday and Sunday. Yummaaaaay.

Okai back to studying.

So I was sitting in class and overheard this conversation:

Girl: Yeah, I've been to Europe a couple times.
Boy: Oh really. Where in Europe?
Girl: Polland. My family's from there.
Boy: Oh wow. Do you speak Polish?
Girl: Yeah, actually I do.
Boy: How do you say, "You have very beautiful eyes?"

So I was about to burst out laughing but of course that would've been weird. I didn't know people actually use pick-up lines. And I didn't know that people fall for it too. Oh maaayn.

Thank you to everyone who made my 21st birthday the most awesome day ever! Thanks for all the happy birthdays and funfunfun gifts. I love you all.

Oh, oh, oh, go totally crazy-forget I'm a lady

Men's shirts-short skirts

Oh, oh, oh, really go wild-yeah, doin' it in style

Oh, oh, oh, get in the action-feel the attraction

Color my hair-do what I dare

Oh, oh, oh, I wanna be free-yeah, to feel the way I feel

Man! I feel like a woman!

- Shania Twain's "Man! I Feel Like A Woman!"

Yes, this is what my dad was singing during the car ride back to Irvine as he bumps Shania Twain's cd in the car. True story.

Thank you thank you thank you to all the Happy Birthdays and the awesome possum gifts! You know who you are! And for those who didn't greet me you all suck. JAYKAY! I love you all.

Oh yeah Happy Birthday to me! Yay 21 wootwoot. Man ionow if I'm excited or sad that I'm officially old. Oh well. Wutever. I can do everything but rent a car now. Yehey.

Christmas pics from my cousin's camera:
http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/chokoleit888/
Thanx cuzin!

Les Mis was awesome...thanx again roomie! Driving you're car was awesome too.

Work sucked. But I got fun gifts from my bosses so it's cool.

Always funtoimes seeing suuueee.

Christmas eve at grandma's house. Funtoimes taking ten billion pics with the cousins.

Christmas day was mucho fun this year! Played Texas hold em for the first toime and I won the pot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (with the help of my uncle of course). But yay me!

New years was aayt. Played pool and won even though I sucked.

Nothing real exciting happening here. Just been chillen at home, watching a lot of tv, a lot of hanging out with mom, a lot of driving around, so basically just a lot of bumming around. I love it.

Ion't wana go back to school!

And I think it went something like this...

It's like...buying a new dog. It's a huge responsibility. You have to make sure it's doing okay. If you see something's wrong you have to take it to the doctor. Or have a general check-up all the time. It has to be entertained once in a while or else it'll go crazy. You have to groom it and make sure it's presentable. You have to make sure that it's safe or else if something happens, you'll end up getting hurt. It's such a hassle you know?

Hmmm...maybe that's why I'm not too fond of dogs.

Whoever can guess what "it" is, you get a cookie. And no, "it" is not about having a baby.

Thanksgiving was food-filled.

Shopping was kinda fun. Except for rude shoppers who don't care about everyone else around them.

Thanx sooo much for those who helped out with our community service at the Intercommunity Care Center. I never thought it would be such an awesome experience.

Finals are over. Yay! (I love finals week for some reason. I love procrastinating and staying up with friends and everyone else. Ionow why.)

I will miss Alisa dearly. I love you Alisa!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY COUSIN LINDS!

Took a two-hour busride to Brea Mall with Rona. Oh the joys of not having a car.

Now I'm working in Irvine for the rest of winter break. Awesometoimes.

Looking forward to Les Mis with my one and only roomate-roomate--Chelle.


I should really blog foreal. Not just stuff that has been happening but real stuff. Whenever I start bloggin about "real stuff" I just end up deleting it. Ionow why. Wutever. I guess I need more toime to think about stuff and then I'll write about it. Or not.
