It's been a while.

Well let's see. So much has happened in the past week that I haven't blogged. I guess I've just been too tired to blog.

Winterball was pretty fun, with the exception of certain immature freshmen -.- Overall, I felt like we had a great night. We got ready at my house, went over to Pasadena Convention Center, 'danced the night away' and went out after. And I didn't even get in trouble when I got home! Too bad for another person who did :( I love you.

Finals were AHHH. So I got 50% on my chem final/benchmark. So sad... Ahaha, well it's not like I expected an A because Mrs. Washington doesn't teach us anyways... I got an A on my spanish final :D No question! (me being conceited abt my spanish skills!) Errr. English, we watched To Kill a Mockingbird which was okay, but I was really tired, felt like sleeping during the movie. OMG, Math is killing me. I think I got a solid C(or worse :[) but i think i'll at least pass the class... [hopefully] Band, was a waste of 2 hours. For one, we didn't feel like doing anything. And another thing is that it was raining. So let's just cover up our laziness with the excuse that it was raining. History was okay, I got an A. Could've done better, but could care less.

So when finals were finally over, we had an adventure. Krispy Kreme, Guppies, and stupid Steven Richardson! It was pretty fun! But we just faced the consequences from my parents because they found out about the ticket. Well, my dad took it easily and was like, "It's okay, everyone gets tickets. This was the kind of ticket that was my FIRST ticket too!" That was a few days ago. And then just yesterday when we get home from my grandpa's house for Chinese New Year, my mom finds out and starts to lecture us(well, him, but I hear and feel like I want to go in and tell her to SHUT UP)

You know how much this is gonna cost. You know all your red envelope money? You're gonna pay for it.

You're not allowed to drive anywhere anymore. Only to school.
-I don't even need to drive to school, I just need my longboard.
I'm gonna write down your miles! If you're driving too much, I'm taking away your driving privileges.

Today, I knitted and ate a lot! and was really bored.

Chinese New Year Resolutions a second chance
- Promise w/ Alejandra Espinosa
- Like JennLam, spend less money.
I can try to resist buying food from Target after work.
- Try harder in school.
Pay attention in math class.
Procrastinate LESS with homework.

So hmm.

I've been wanting to blog for the past few days. I just forgot what it was about now.

Well on Monday, I think I lost my knitting needle :( How will I live?! &I failed my english quiz on TKaM.

Tuesss. Practice was ghey. Haha and I haven't been going to work :(

Wedddd. Failed vision test -.- Practica con Angie. Pretty productive?

Hoy; WALKED AND READ, going to school. I read TKaM in first period, and didn't listen to her 'teach'. And I got an A on my quiz! that never happens. According to Vicky, it was 'fresh'. YAY. It makes me feel happy about English class. Math is ghey. I hate it, I hope my C goes up, but then again that means.. PAYING ATTENTION IN CLASS, AND DOING MY WORK! not gonna happen :D we had a sub for 4th so vicky and brian came(: ! Lunch FOOD FBLA FOOD. History, I might fail the final, cause I have a feeling that these review games are gna be ghey and not help. I just hope that our game isn't retarded. Spanish, is getting boring. It used to be REALLY fun. and now I can't wait for it to be over. Went to Bills afterschool, hung out in room, played with makeup&hair. and stretched.
^Theme; optimism overcomes the pessimistic?
¡I'M EXCITED FOR WB NOW!

Ew.

So what's up lately? Some unfortunate things that have happened in the past few days.

- Nasty period days -.-
- Lots of fights with my parents
- GOT WINTERBALL DRESS
- Left my phone at school >:O
- KNITTED SCARVES

Well today wasn't all that great. I woke up imagining that I was gonna not go to school. 'My head hurt' but enough that I could wake up, shower and get dressed. Haha, well first period, had a sub; pretty ghey class, LIKE ALWAYS. I'm going to fail english, I got less than 50% on my chapter check quiz >:O it was my fault... The math makeup quiz was okay, I might actually pass! WOO. Oh man, 4th period is the hardest thing ever ;] lunch was lunch. ATE, did history notes, and STUDIED! And I didn't fail that either! I have a lot of makeup + current homework for spanish.

I swear to god, I woke up thinking I was gna fail ALL of my tests, but it ends up that it was just one :] idk what it is, maybe it's the friends that I see in 4th, or just the time of the day but no matter how shitty I feel, 4th period makes it better. So thanks to all of you :D I've realized that this life is gonna 'be too short' and yet I want these years to pass already. But then I wouldn't have time to enjoy the things that are happening.

Winterguard :D Pretty excited, for competition and bags (: <-- week 5!
Winterball! fjdlsagjALEalkdfjdslak!
TTYL (:

Back To School.

It's not as bad as I expected. I felt like I was gna die and feel super exhausted everyday. I realized that if I didn't have school, nothing would make me tired enough to enjoy sleeping.

Yesterday was a settle back in day. It was pretty easy but I still had a hard time staying awake in a lot of my classes. I went to work afterschool for 2.75 hours! Haha, went home, watched Secret Life, and lagged my homework

Today, on the other hand, seemed completely different. I found some of my classes kinda interesting. Ahaha, in chem, we did this mini lab which is really stupid but whatevs. In english, I finally got a good grade on those TKAM quizzes and got half of th reading done in class. In math, I actually understand the lesson because i pay attention now. haha, fourth, taught the unteachable -.- lunch, hung out in room? 5th, took notes and had 2 sections for homework! 6th, passed back papers, and i don't enjoy this class as much as I used to... Afterschool I went to study hall with Vicky cause I didn't have my ID. Got more than half my homework done, and actually started typing my community service paper.

I realized that I'm halfway done with the week. Because I have tomorrow left, and Thursday is a late start day, and Friday I have a doctor's appointment[I might come back after?].

Tomorrow; school, study hall, practice w/ Angie.
Bring $40, update music from USB.

LATES.

It's weird...

Today seemed like a fairly happy day, and yet I find myself doubting some things. I'm home alone right now. Usually, I LOVE being home alone. But I've realized that it's only when I'm having problems with my family. I haven't really had a big fight with anyone lately -ahem- my mom. So as I am home alone, I feel lonely. Also, school's back -.- I mean, I guess there's upsides to that. Like uh, I'm not as bored, I get to see friends, and uh LACK OF SLEEP! [THAT'S THE BEST] -sarcasm- Life, just take me where I'm meant to be.

Well today, I couldn't sleep at 1AM and I thought about stuff while in bed. Some random stuff that I can't even remember. Then I woke up at 7AM this morning. I guess I'm getting used to the 4 hours of sleep that I'll get these next 5 months! I stayed home and watched the Secret Life marathon. It started at 2PM but I watched it east, so it was on at 11AM. I guess it was cool catching up and hopefully, I'll make time for myself to continue watching this season.

A few days ago, my brother goes, "Hey Joyce, what's your new year's resolution?"
I answered with, "Uh, IDK... To try harder and do better in school?"
Then he replied, "OMG, that's boring."
It was then that I realized, I don't really have a new year's resolution. And like Ale says, "Fck new year's resolutions." I realize that I give myself life goals, whether it's a new year, a holiday, a weekend, or weekday. And it's up to my self-discipline whether or not I reach those goals.

¡Adios amigos!

Sigh, there goes the break!

I remember a few weeks ago, I was counting down `till this wonderful break would come. It wasn't that great, but so much better than the super-stress and no sleep that happens when school is in session. But I guess having a break with sleep, practice, work, and FOOD was a time to relax. I don't want to go back to school, but I'm pretty ready for it. I realized that if I didn't have practice or work, how bored I would be at home everyday. The upside, was SLEEEEEEEEP.

The past practices that we have been having have been really productive. I'm still looking forward to a great season. WOO.

I went to work for full days, kinda. I'm expecting a bigger paycheck in two weeks :D and in a few weeks, it's byebye work, until JUNE 09!

So let's see, exciting events? On New Year's Eve, I went to the mall w/ Ale. I exchanged my crocs, and lucky for me, it was the last day that RUZE was open. Then there were keds on sale! I got the same navy ones, but they're new, they fit better, and they were $15! :D I also got orange pairs for Ale and Jack <3 We waited for my brother to pick us up and then I realized that I would be home alone. I went to the Chuong household. We had fun. Ahaha, movies, food, APPLE CIDER, and weird stuff.

On New Years Day, I stayed home, watched Rose Parade and knitted. Ahaha.

Friday & Saturday practices... Girl Scouts was today -.- MOST POINTLESS MEETING EVER.

This post is taking longer than I expected

Tomorrow is my homework and Secret Life marathon day. The break was coool, while it lasted. BACK TO SCHOOL IT IS!
