hi, i am in tokyo right now. i am so tired. it's monday night here. will be in japan till thursday. then it is manila. so i don't really like it in tokyo. life is too fast paced here and i really don't like cities. so i guess i can't ever live in SF if that is the case. so yeah. the plane ride on JAL was quite an experience. i would definitely fly with them again. i am on one of those asian tours. gosh i really wish i was more fluent in mandarin and wish i was more lingual. any i gotta go. later.

??? beached whale ???

beyond confused. I feel so fat, like i am insulated or something. blah. after saturday it's gonna be hitting the gym 6 times a week. i been so lazy.

booger booger booger.

my headache has somewhat subsided. this past weekend, I made my first 2-layer cake. it was devil's food cake with mocha frosting. It turned out pretty well. I brought it into work and praises all around so i was glad. It was my first time dabbling with mocha and it was well enjoyed. kudos. though presentation wasn't focus, it was still delightful. I can't wait to dabble in it some more. so today i took a practice PAT. it was a killer, my brain was about to explore. Gosh the stress is slowly rising. i am going to go insane. I would really just liked to be saved and enjoy like. Baking away. Imagine the new mixtures I could come up with. But alas, patience is a virtue.

tuesday, gosh it is tuesday already. it's like monday just flew by. anyways, i am studying, i am getting really into it. good thing, my test is less than 3 weeks away. so i really need to get my eyes checked too. so what i did this weekend. well, i went down to sd and chilled and got a lot of studying done. YEAH! so friday night, i saw TROY. it wasn't all that, that's all i have to say, okay, i have more to say. it was an interesting interpretation. if you haven't seen it, stop reading. i don't want to ruin it for you. so to continue on, I thought that the interpretation was interesting. i understand that it can't be just like the Iliad because well a movie can only be so long and this movie was pretty LONG. so it wasn't very accurate. it was mainly the story of Achilleus. it was pretty gory. it was interesting to see another interpretation of helen and how the gods didn't act on. i didn't like that one scene where paris clings onto hektor's ankle. but i liked some line and philosophy of the movie. how paris is a lover and that's why helen loves paris. how she would rather be with a man or love than war. and the comparison between hektor and paris. i personally don't like menelaos. agamemnon was really funny in one scene. you'll see him sinisterly laughing. i also realized that brad pitt has an ugly looking nose and that orlando bloom has really nice abs.

went to sushi deli on saturday. it wasn't bad. i had rolls without avocado. i liked it better that way. it didn't stuff me, and well that's the best feeling in the world. I would highly recommend the surise roll with no avocado. that was the best, i thought. then I made white chocolate, chocolate, walnut cookies. they turned out pretty well, but next time i am going to add less butter. see with more butter, it's nice, moist and chewy, but i felt that there was too much butter, so i am going to attempt to only use 3/4 and see what happens. i like it chewy, but i don't want it to be dry. still i am glad it was a crowd pleaser. neve realized how hard it was to make it from scratch. but that's my new thing now. this hobby of mine keeps me well occupied esp with studying at the same time. can't wait till i am all done, then i can experiment with different recipes.

sunday we had a bbq at casa de amigos. it was nice. a variety of food to please.

at work today, i told my coworker about sumo...yumm....no i can't wait to go.

okay, so maybe the pain the i am feeling on my left lower pelvic is a bad things. i'd say its been maybe since friday, making that like 2 days. what could it be from? did i bruise myself somehow and not know it? it pains me, and 2 advils didn't cure it. it is keeping me from studying, what to do? okay, i'll take a vioxx, that might help. stretching perhaps. off to bake. making oatmeal cookies. later gator. ohh maybe it's just GAS. oh that dreaded GAS. why me?

so now i am going to attempt to study. ch 3 here i go. so tired and sore. got a lunch a work tomorrow. glad, means i can come home and watch friends. hopefully all goes well.

been meaning to update, but haven't. friends is almost on so i am going to be watching that. can't wait to watch friends tomorrow, it's the last one. okay, i'll be back. who knows when.

EARTH DAY!!!!

oh yeah went to ikea and got these cocktail glasses. they were so COOL and CHEAP. can't wait to use them.

hi there. so i am in a fairly good mood. but it has been so hard to get up these days. i feel so tired and don't want to get outta bed. but i always do at around 10 or so. i know that is so late. but that's my schedule for you. so let's see this weekend i went rockclimbing at rockreation. it was pretty cool and i even belayed. my arms are still pretty sore but i'll manage. also had maggiano's this weekend. i introduced sean to it and he liked it. saw kill bill vol2 as well. didn't like it too much. just not my type of movie. had some onion rings and coldstone creamery; that was nice. especially the onion rings. ya gotta love them. along with donuts those are my weakness. so i am going to the supermarket today and the plan is to go to campus tomorrow to drop off my personal statement and ask virginia for a letter of rec. hopefully all goes well so i have to prep them things.

so many things to do, but first priority is get my DATS and application done with so i can just relax during my waiting time. that'll be nice with cable perhaps. okay, well off to study. must master my natural sciences.

time is money. why am i wasting all this time. i feel so old and like a failure. get my theme here.

going to tokyo and philippines in june. for 3 weeks. nice. just the break i needed.
which reminds i need look up that inn my boss was talking about.

FAILURE

i got up so early today with work at 7 and all. so i think the whole day, i was conciously walking around asleep, or at least looked liked it. so yeah, came home at 5. went to the gym. and when i was all done, it was raining really hard and thundering with lighting. it was so nice. i wanted it to thunder even harder and rain even harder. i haven't walked in the rain in so long, so it was nice. i think that was the best part of my day. aside from that, today was not a good day at all. i annoyed and moody. the whole day i was bitching to my coworkers. on a sidenote went to TAIKO for lunch. it was alright. the waitress was puchy and mean though, trying to be nicer at the end of our meal. anyways, i better shut up now before i get really pissed, i need to calm down before i raise my blood pressure.

blog blog blog. gosh it's sunday. not an ordinary sunday. i am all tired and wouldn't mind just going to sleep, but i wanna study some some. so this is how my day went. woke up at 9 am. i was like, it's sunday i should just sleep in. but no, i woke. went to work out. came back showered and went to work. counted 5 titers, mucho unpleasant. that's like 120 plates. okay, so i did that for 4-5 hours. then i came home. had some cereal. i was really hungry cause my i felt my abdominals pounching. okay, went to get my haircut. i really like it. :) although when cece was cutting it i was like hmm...that looks like a lot of hair. but it wasn't really. i got rounded layers or so. it's nice. my hair is really straight. after that, i went to in n out and got my sis some food and had some frenchies myself. it's been a while. then came home and made myself dinner. makeing salmon is so fast. it only took 20 minutes on broil. it was very simple, just the way i like it and to close with my buko pie (YUM!)

so for the rest of the night, the plan is to study and finish the QR section. upcoming events....VAREKAI and VEGAS. gosh, i gotta plan two sets of packing, ARGHHHH. okay....i am excited about vegas....

i am so blepping bored. so i finished another chapter. got 3 more to go, so hopefully i get that done tomorrow.
i want to get it done before i go on my mini vacation. i am feeling stress. i just want to SCREAM. i have work tomorrow. ugh....i know it won't talk long, but who knows. gosh, i am such a brat and a complainer. i just want to break something and scream. so yeah, today, didn't do much cause flow kept me in.

how my day went.....woke up early cause i had to take sean to the airport. so the night before, sophia, sean and i go to seaside donuts. the crossaints weren't up to par thatday. the last time i went they were huge. it was partial my fault though cause i was rude to the dude. i felt bad, but i was so caught off guard. i mean serious to defend myself this is how it went. keeping in mind that in that area on a friday night you get all these wacko drunk people. DRUNK people can be annoying. so seeing as how i was with my little sister....i didn't want to expose her to any....well you....so this dude was outside seaside donuts smoking and as i was entering the establishment, he asks, can you give me a minute and i said NO. okay that was a bit mean. but what went through my mind was.....hmm...when he opened his mouth i thought he was going to ask me for money. which didn't happen. so yeah, i was like, why would he ask me for a minute. it so didn't make sense. i mean really, i was just put on the spot. so yeah...y? okay, usually i would be repremanded for giving a bum money, but i do it anyways. i am a sap. so yeah....we get in and it turns out he's the so-called cashier. well was i embarrassed and i put two and two together. so yeah it was awkard beyong believe and i felt bad. tried to justify myself, but whatever. just at the wrong place and the wrong time. so yeah.....whatever.

for the record i can be a mean person, but i think it's justifiable because i think i am a pretty good judge of character, so i go by my instincts. meaning that if i don't like you, i will not want to talk to you, or my orientation will be different, depending on my mood. usually, i try to express it so you won't bother me. anyways, whatever.

i better go to bed soon, big day tomorrow. wake up at 9, work out, go to work, get a hair cut, make dinner. i hope it all fits into my schedule. then study.....might have to cut a few things. so yeah, i am making me some salmon and going to surprise my coworker with some chocolate covered strawberries that i know she has been dying for me to bring in. it's her birthday anyways.

adios.

went to sumo's on friday -- thanks charles.

got my rag on friday --- having a killer saturday.

got work tomorrow. need to study. need to shop. need to get over this rag.

all i want to do it roll around. bloody hell.

i've got the munchies. i should just go to sleep. so yeah topics to look forward to...gas with humans and cars.

so today was quite flattering. as i was walking back from the gym, this guy who was sitting in his truck, probably taking a break spotted me from his side view mirror and as i was approaching he turned and said, " has anyone ever told you that you look really cute?" I was shocked, yet flattered. bare in mind, i had just come back from the gym, all sweaty and etc. so that was a nice way to start out my day.

i got another chapter done today so that was nice. and also my cycle is all messed up. when i was doing my cardio today, i was feeling some massive cramps and was about to cut it short, but it subsided so i got to finish my cardio. debating on whether i should do cardio again tomorrow, i really shouldn't cause i need to relax my muscle. maybe i'll do pilates instead. we'll see. i'm an addict, only if that's how i was with studying.

okay so here's the thing about gas. i filled up today and like wow, whenever i fill up, my car just feels so much more powerful. it's nice. but weary at the same time. now HUMANS on the other hand have the completely opposite effect. when we have GAS in us, it's such a pain. we feel big and bloated and like a beached whale. no energy at all, just a lot of horrible unpleasant gas. today i feel less beached so that is nice. gosh my lower back has been acting up lately. maybe i shouldn't go for that run. guess i shall see how i feel in the morning.

so i was looking at haistyles....i was thinking i get something along the lines of a cross between kristen davis, lucy liu, and tara reid. i am really cautious about the whole layers all around though. i don't know if i would actually like that. hmmm..... okay... hopefully i get another chapter done tomorrow. and so on. i guess i'll get on that now.

BUT, ever notice that going online just wasn't ass BAM as before. you know....now a days, all i do is check email...look at a couple of sites. chat a while. then blah.. so is online worth all that we pay for? hmmmm.....good question....so why do we choose to use it. i know these days, it's also an essential. but still...i think it is limited. or is it?

okay, i'll stop. ta ta.

is this really me?


Which Disney Princess are you?

i have out done myself once again. for the past two weeks, i have had a habit of eating cereal, at least 3 servings, with no milk. i feel myself expanding. or something. it's fat day. i hate it. i am two weeks into my cycle and i feel like a beached whale. somebody help me. so yeah. i can't wait for debloatation to start. i felt like such a piggy today. the consequences about being a girl. not to mention all the gas that is in me. i mean really. it's like a wham bam....kicking me when i am down.

so i get home from work and did my pilates. decided not to run cause my back was somewhat aching. and the fact that i'll be running tomorrow and the next four day. i might take a rest though. trying to minimize.....we'll see.

so i should be gettting another chapter done in my review book and i think i am going to postpone my dats, 2 weeks later. and gosh... my lower back is bothering me a bit. hmmmm....maybe a nice hot shower will cure it. perhaps, i am already so tired. and also.....a tip. KASHI Puffed.....bad idea. it's too dry....too much like a rice cracker. i can't imagine having it with milk. still have to try it. so sad....i wanted to the GOLEAN crunch but they were sold out. maybe that puffed will go well in my yogurt. wow...i can feel a muscle in my back as i type. too bad i can only feel it on my left side. it is very odd. it is almost pulsing like my heartbeat. perhaps, an increase in metabolism or something.

so i want to get a haircut, i but i still have no clue as what to do with it. i can't wait till the weekend comes cause i can just study. no distractions. i have it planned. i'll take sean to the airport then go to the gym, shower, eat, and study the whole day. and then do the same on sunday. i really hope i get a lot done cause i am taking a mini vacation.

i really should get going now. looking at my calendar and seeing what i have to tend to.
