Busy busy busy
so much going on, so little time!
Back track and reminisce with me.
Disneyland trip.....went to sleep really late....like around 2am late....and then woke up at 4am!! oh yes not much sleep, more of a nap. got picked up by chris and then picked up kevin and meng as well. got to the airport where we messed around with revolving doors and boarded our flight at 7? sunscreen and lotion did not meet the ounce requirements so they were taken............wonderful. thankfully that was my spray on sunscreen and i still had my other one with me.
shuttle took us to our hotel but it was not check in time yet so we dropped off the luggage and walked a block( it might have been called a block but it was like a 10 min walk!!!!) to DISNEYLAND!! Of course it would have been more exciting if I did not have to walk back to the hotel right after we got there with Meng because no foldable chairs were allowed into the park...........very not cool. But the weather was extremely humid. First ride was Autopia.
Anyhoo I'll just give a quick summary of the couple of days that we were down there. Ate....a lot. Can't ever miss out on the churros. The Kevins each tried the turkey leg but only Nguy succeeded. We all fell in love with the bread bowls....especially Kevin. Ate some more. Watched the fireworks show practically every night. Bought a good amount of souvenirs
Rides you ask? Lets see Buzz Lightyear a couple of times - Autopia to begin and end our trip - squeezed in peter man, mr toad and another one in the last 20 minutes the park was open. space mountain (3x) .....no drop? yeah right thanks guys...but actually thats the new fav. - pirates - indianna jones was fun too even though it broke down during our fast pass time (11:3o) so we went the next night and they said it still worked!! soaring in california - alice in wonderland - teacups - star tours always a good one iono what else.
last day hung out at downtown disney. was at the park hotel for awhile just hanging around. bought more things. got to the airport around 4 but our flight was at like 830? still fun though. we played uno(special disney adition uno) for the longest time. we all had a good time ganging up on whoeve had the least number of cards. after playing for a good couple of hours, we gave up in order to buy food before the ride home. hung out at greg's where keegan joined us. 12 layer jello was awesome!!!!! got really cool mugs from greg's parents. here are some pictures. .. still gotta upload to facebook but yeah facebook the albums if you want to see them( it seems as if jeff gee has done so already)

its been awhile
soooooooooo okay must back track to a month ago.
June 9 - lunch with Andrejeff (gift was almost a tear jerker...................) lunch at kirin then it was off to greg's house to be weird and make human pyramids..........as well as take a whole bunch of jumping pics. then more pics on the trademark spera couch........yes mark and matt not for your friends
Hmmm then june 10 - senior awards...ate with lunch with meng and christina........after senior awards ate with spera for the last time before grad at kitaro(another trademark spera spot) which was good.
june 11 - senior breakfast - food was okay i suppose...nothing really fresh but hey anything is better than cereal right? did a lot of yearbook and senior portrait and prom picture signings done. thennn finally got driven in vedar's veggie car. so vedar me irene and chun went to in and out which was pretty fun. vedar definitely upgraded veggie cars. then it was off to watch kung fu panda with jared. what a great movie. so entertaining for a kiddie movie. then after that we had sports awards! good times good pictures
set up for grad stage
in and out palm trees
the message i left to next year ochi students
the field team (jumpers throwers)
june 12 - GRADUATION!!!! boy that feels like so long ago.....surprisingly no crying yet. didnt really sink in that it was graduation. a really hot day though so better than last year where it was just freezing. being called up feels so surreal. everything is such a blur i just remember thinking i hope i dont trip and fall and embarrass myself.......took soooooooooo many pictures (to see them facebook me) ill leave you with this
these people are the reason why high school was a blast
cant forget the family
june 13 - hung out with spera at mengs and helped babysit her nephews who are both really cute. sorry no pics for that
june 14 - YOUTH ARTS NIGHT - thanks to those of you who came out. much appreciated. it was nervewrecking but very fun at the same time. everything done that night i give all up to G-O-D. (cause we down like that)
random
as we walk the highways one last time as students....we remember....we reflect....we enjoy the moment

a new month
first off gotta promo this
this will be one of the rare times you will see me dance, sing, and act! I know what a deal. For more info.........either leave a comment......IM me........call me.......whatever it takes! anyhoo
June means...........graduation! we got our yearbooks last Thursday. They're pretty good. definitely better than last years. don't really want to sign yearbooks though because then it'll really feel like school is almost over.
In the beginning of the year, I thought......well since all my classes are AP classes......I at least won't have finals since I'll be done with the AP tests.............ooo how wrong I was. Stats, English, BC Calc, and Econ allll have finals............on the same day! Not cool at all. But after this week I will be done. Next week consists of 2 grad practices, and a senior breakfast (note to spera we should just make breakfast for ourselves again)
Mayfest was on Friday andddddd it was really bad. Not many booths this year and the food wasn't that great either. Did get some cotton candy at the end though. Went with Meng Chris and Christina to Stonestown to try to find a gift for Ms. Andrejeff but unfortunately we were not successful. We'll see what happens....................... yup I'm done I think.......

decided to try video blogging..................
so went to school for second period just to watch a movie.................not cool. decided to leave since we wouldn't be doing anything at school. went home, hung out did this and that. at around 2 started to get ready. didn't take as long as I expected which was good. Katrina picked me up and we headed over to Anna's house and just as we parked, the limo drives up with all the guys who had just come from Greg's house. took a couple of pictures in fron of Anna's and by then it was already 450! we had planned to meet at 430 so we could be at our restaurant by 5. by the time we got down to the restaurant it was near 530 but it was fine. the limo ride down was pretty cool.
the view was really nice but it was too bad that it was somewhat foggy. took a whole bunch of pictures and we had a nice outdoor table for the 14 of us that were there.
