ahh bored again during break, that seems to be a popular time for me to update this thing. its been a while and i thought what the heck, ill write a bit for my subscribers haha

lets recap my break thus far:

Dec 23rd me, jen, ari, and my sister went snowboarding at sierra summit for the day, good times. NO lines was awesome and a fairly empty slope made the experience pretty good. first time snowboarding with jen, it was lotsa fun and she kicked my ass pretty badly.

Christmas was nice, we played Cranium with the family, kids vs adults and i must say the kids stumbled along but we pulled through in the end...i had to hold it down with the humming =) i ate lots of yummy food and got nice and fat...speaking of fat, im HUGE, no seriously. i have said it before but this time i mean it, im a monster. no joke, im a solid 150 lbs approaching 160 rapidly. i know you are saying WTF? but yes, the scale doesnt lie, maybe 1 does, but ive checked a mulititude of them and they seem to say the same thing.

after xmas i headed up to san jose to visit jen and we went to tahoe for snowboarding in heavenly. great mountain i must say, but not when it is overly crowded. half hour waits for the chair lifts were ridiculous and parking days away uphill was the worst experience ever. not to mention snotty kids and people cutting in lunch lines....dont anger me when i am hungry, i was about to throw some elbows out there. im never doing the top of the peak again...i almost got frost bite taking my gloves off to take some pics.

after tahoe i was ridiculously sick and got jen sick too, sorry =( stayed in bed for most the time, but got to do some shoppin at valley fair and spend money i didnt have yay! and even had a nice little dinner at maggianos which was overpriced and had a woman that had no concept of napkins and refused to give us napkins after many requests. also we waited close to 3 hours for a table, NOT worth it at all.

and onto new years. went to san francisco for a hotel party at the Westin. OMG it was nuts...san fran during new years is freakin crazy. they were trying to charge $55 for parking in downtown. oh and by the way, sf is NOT corvette friendly! also if you ever wanted to visit Asia, just goto downtown sf for new years...no difference. but the party was fun and i got my new years kiss ;) oh and my final words on new years...so many different white guys, same dance haha

and now its time at home chillin and recovering from being sick. a time of movies and boredom, good food and late nights doing nothing. 2005 was a great year i must say and i have no regrets. 2006 looks to be promising as well. farewell to all for a while i am sure, hopefully ill update a bit more but i say that every year, so who knows haha

peace out

ok so im the WORST person of all time at updating this thing...but a lot of it has to do with the fact that i don't fully believe in xanga and what it does to people, in fact i think i will explain my thought on that first:

1. i dont like xanga because i think it creates anti-socialness in people. not that i am not anti-social myself, so yes i am being hypocritic, but i do think its sad that people just read others' xangas and never ACTUALLY talk with those people anymore.

people seem to find it more convenient to catch up with people by reading a screen and viewing pics. i am not saying that i dont do this either, cause i do. but i also try to talk with those people too on occasion even tho im HORRIBLE at keeping in touch with people...mostly cause ive been crazy busy but also cause im just a bad friend sometimes :(

2. i also dont like that people are so obsessed with eprops that they constantly update in an attempt to sound funny and amazing so that people will leave eprops and comments

3. however, i will say that i like xanga on a personal focus so that later i can go back and review my entries to sorta remember how i USED to think and how naive i was and really how naive i STILL am. for as many public entries that i post, i have just as many private ones haha....so mysterious

ok so with that aside i think that clears up some issues with xanga, but those are my personal opinions...in other ways xanga has been fun and many people enjoy it so dont let my opinions skew the way you see it, post away if that is your thing, and i will happily read up :)

so enough with that random tangent, onto the reason for the post. last night was too crazy to not document, things must be said hahahahaha

so on saturday night, a few of us got together to go clubbin in hollywood. it was me, ari, leigh, russ, tina, tina's bf, liz, and jenn. we decided to goto the factory well because ari has sorta dated the promoter and could get us on the guest list. now i am not a HUGE fan of the clubs, although i do enjoy hip hop and like to dance, errr attempt to dance. but it has been a looooooong week of tutoring and stress getting my kids ready for the SAT...many days of 1 meal and no sleep. and cause leigh and russ were coming down from sb, along with not having been to an LA club in over 2 years, and NEVER going to a 21 and over club before, i was a bit interested. plus jenn agreed to go with me so i could have someone else that i could dance with if everyone split up.

so we get to the club after a very long and confusing drive. somehow ari has been there multiple times but still was battling to make it there. and we apparently needed to get on the 10E only to exit robertson which is right around the corner from our new apt in which we left. i still think there is a faster way to get there...

anyways we get to the club and after being told that it should be free, it wasnt and we had to pay $10 to get in, but it was cool that we got to cut to the front of the line, and it was good to see some old lambda and agc people that i havent seen in years. haha kinda sucked that i only brought $20 in cash but whatevers.

after we got in it was pretty slow cause it was before 10 still so nobody was there yet. however there were interesting go go girls dancing with basically nothing on, and really really ridiculously huge boots, that is not a typo, yes i mean to say boots. like im talking freaking 6" platforms. and i still think jenn should be a go go dancer cause she has the stomping routine down hahahaha

moving along as the night gets deeper and the drinks get stronger it gets crazy. we have leigh trying to get on stage and be a go go dancer where she gets thrown off by security guards. ari being drunk and introducing me to people multiple times while also constantly telling me she has to pee. russ spent like $70 on drinks for himself for i dont know what reason. i also decided that jenn knew EVERY person at the club cause every time i turned around there was someone she was talking to.

later on leigh made a female friend who looked older and we all thought leigh and her went way back when apparently leigh has no idea who she is and cant even remember her at all anymore. oh and we did end up meeting the guy that leigh was working and he seemed nice, too bad for him...flavor of the week. oh and ari is also trying to make me hook her up with one of the old lambda actives that i used to know from pledging, but i will not promote this stalkerish intent :)

finally we leave the club at 2:30 or so and leigh is on the curb with an asthma/panic attack and we had to fit 6 people into ari's accord with leigh hanging out the window like a dog. after getting back to the apt everyone passes out and i goto bed in my room. however, leigh was sleeping in the living room when i went to bed, then she was sleeping in my room when i woke up, then she was sleeping in my bed when i left, then she was sleeping back in the living room when i came back....strange.

later we got lunch at norms and just grubbed like crazy. leigh somehow managed to call some promoter guy that she got a card from and talked to him for a bit, as soon as she hangs up with him and opens up her phone and says "ok next" and continues on down the list o guys...*shaking head* and somehow during the course of the meal leigh decided to have one of the guys meet her at norms for like 5 min to say bye before she went back to sb, i still dont get it.

ok so i think thats it for now....all in all it was one CRAZY night and the events that occurred were ridiculous to no extent. words cant express what went down last night, sorry i dont have pics....i refused to carry ari's camera in my pocket the whole night while i was dancing.

so that its, peace out!

well i am officially done with the mcat test. my thoughts?

TOUGH...no doubt about that. it was everything i could hope for and then some. physical science section was about right, maybe a little easier, verbal was right on medium pace, and bio was ROUGH...it was definitely harder than most my practice tests.

but after talking and hearing about a lot of people's thoughts, everyone seems to agree that it was a bit harder than usual, so i dont know where that means i stand...we will just have to wait and find out in june :(

car update: yes, my car was REAR ENDED last tuesday! the entire rear end is done...needs new bumber, both rear fenders, and new tail lights, and new center panel. *sigh* who would have known that people are actually STOPPED in traffic at 5:30pm on the 405S near the LAX? yes, that is right folks, i was stopped for over a minute when someone ran into me.

so car stuff really sucks, mcat stuff sucks, but is over...all in all things are ok but at least i have my life back now, come holla at me and lets do something

oh and before i forget...my new goal this quarter is to get a 4.0gpa. last quarter of my 4th year, i think i should really pull it off...this quarter is probably my best shot at it too. since i need to do well anyways to ask for letters of rec, i might as well go all out and get As in all of my classes :)

and also for this quarter: WORKING OUT! i have decided to break my rule of 1 workout per quarter...i need to get in shape, i am currently fat and disgusting. so dont be surprised to see me in the gym or if you arent here then you will be seeing a lot of away messages of me being in the gym. time to get my life back together.

that is all for now, wow this was a long post, sorry if you read that and nothing interesting came out of it....
