Random......


my computer is back up and running, but it still has minor problems. I think i may reformat to 98 soon. better safe than sorry, ya know. anyways, the maintenance guy is here now fixing the little things that aren't up to par. he's been here a while actually, more than an hour. anyways, i have work today, so after he is done i am going to go there, put in a couple of hours. today is pay day. yuppie. well not really because I don't work much, thus....i don't make that much money. I really need to get another job or something.

I went to cabazon with Chris on monday. I didn't get much...just a beanie from North Face, wrist bands from puma, and a tie from J. Crew. I like the tie...it's super-girly. pink and all. Chris didn't buy anything, wow...except for pretzels, but that doesn't really count.

i'm at my new place now, I moved last week. Rancho San Joaquin is a nice place; i have a bigger place now. If you love golf, you'll love it here. moving was a big pain. I have so many bruises because of it. some of them are pretty big too. anyways, we are going to have a house warming once everyone moves in. well, a small get together sorta thing.

i recently purchased a shelf from ikea, i forgot what it was called, but it's nice, maybe i'll take a picture of it. I am pretty much all moved in, just little things need to be sorted out. I still have to get a shoes rack, kitchen mats, and another oddvar stool. basically little novelty things. so last week, i finally decided to built my oddvar. It took me so long, it was hard and took so much effort. man. i guess the screw were scored in too well. i am proud of my creation though. oh yeah, chris helped a little, i didn't want him to cause I wanted to label it "made by SHEILA". yes, I was going through an ego-trip.

i cut my hair again. it's actually short now. I like it. Cece usually cuts my hair. She's great because she never cuts it too short or anything. I love what she does to my hair.

i'm 21 now. I didn't do much for my birthday. I went out with my family (annual birthday thing) and did the cake thing. Chris joined us, that was nice. We went to this Japanese place...hehehe...yeah...that's right....i am proud of my thief.

yesterday, I bought sake. haven't tried it though, it's still in the fridge.

hmmm...my hand hurts....

Crash and Burn......


my computer has died once again. poo... i am at school using the computer. I just got outta work and i parked on the meter for 2 hours and it only took me an hour to do my work stuff. so i decided to use the computer at school since my computer died.

yesterday, I moved into my new place. i am really quite sore, i can't even type. it hurts. kinda. I'LL BE BACK....

Shopping Extravaganza......


It's wednesday. i just woke up. so really i haven't done anything, but pee. I am sorta hungry. hmmm....what should I eat?

yesterday, Chris and I went to Chick's Sporting Goods again. We also went there the day before yesterday. The first time around, I bought a pair of power blue etnies. The same pair I had before and still do, but it's alll beat up. Chris bought 2 pairs of etines and shorts because he needed to get new shorts. Why did we buy another pair? to replace our already beat-up ones. As you can see I (we) really like that type of shoe. So we decided to go again. I got another pair of etnies just in case they stop making the czar. I doubt that will happen though because it is a really popular shoe. Maybe I should get a yellow one instead?

Chris got more shoes and shorts. This time the shoes were for basketball, one for him and one for his brother. They're straight and nice, like the ones larry hughes wears (or at least the ones he used to wear). I also decided to get my sister a pair of etnies; it's the same style as mine, the czar, but in a different color. we call it the bumble bee, because that's what the colors resemble. It's a cute shoe, SEE.





We also went to Costco yesterday and I got amelie. It's still sealed. One down and a couple more to go. I also wanted to get rushmore, but i haven't seen it yet, so i'll wait. Chris got 6 DVDs yesterday. He finally got the Criterion Edition of In the Mood for Love . Hacker, Original Sin, Amadeus, Ronin and American History X were the other DVDs he got. I found Orignial Sin for him and it was only $8.99. What a steal of a deal. I was quite proud of myself. Chris has the fastest growing well thought-out DVD collection ever. He started with one, two, or three and now .....we'll you have to see it for yourself. There a lot, but i don't mean hundreds. It's not the just quantity, but the quality of it.

Head Over Heels.....


Have you ever felt your knees wobble? okay, have any of you ever seen head over heels with monica potter and freddie prince jr.? well, the character, amanda, played by monica potter, knees wobble every time she has this particular feelings. In this case, it's romance. a surge of butterflies in your stomach, I guess, but a good feeling of course. Anyways, I mention this because I was just curious to know if that happens to real people.

Of course, it's mostly different for everyone...the sign of romance or whatnot. anyways, chris bought this japanese anime, bubblegum crisis 2040. It's an interesting anime about boomers (robots) that go berserk and knight sabers that come to the rescue. but there's a lot more to what i am telling you.

yesterday, I went to blockbuster to look for down to you, but i couldn't find it. I did run across this other movie though. happenstance, a foreign flick. It had the same actress of a movie i recently saw, amelie. It's about faith and things happening by chance.....if the bleh...didn't bleh...then....bleh...would have never met. etc. so i am thinking about getting it.

well that's it for now.

second time around....


it's wednesday, the week is almost over. now that i am not taking summer school, i feel like time is passing by way to quickly. I slept quite late yesterday. I was watching whatever it takes with Chris. we started with down to you, but it wouldn't play right. still gotta rent or buy it. I like it, it had a charm to it that makes me want to watch it. then again, it's also cause I like that kinda stuff.

I woke up quite late today. Had some grub and studied then went to kaplan. BUT, my teacher never showed up. Ughhh....what a drag. so instead they played this video for us. at kaplan they have lesson video, so we were learning, just not the same though. I stayed to watch it cause i figure i needed to brush up on my o-chem.

For dinner I had IN-N-OUT. seems like today just wasn't my luck. I ordered the double-double meal for chris; cheeseburger and fries for myself. And they forgot to give me the other set of fries. So i had to go back and get it, what a pain that was. anyways, the meal was good, I been craving IN-N-OUT this week. I saw Galaxy Quest with Chris. I've watched it a couple of times and it just wasn't the same this time around. The voice of that alien guy, commander dude. it just wasn't the same.

anyways....wendy told me about her skydiving experience. i can't really describe it, but i guess it's just one of those things that you need to experience for yourself. well that's it for now....oh yeah.

i'm thinking about cutting my hair again, like chin length. with layers perphaps, maybe i'll get that done tomorrow. the insentive behind it? to look less young. everyone is always telling me how i look so young especially Chirs. i mean i don't really do i? anyways, i am going to be 21 soon, and i've had long hair all my life. it's time for a change. so here's my attempt to be more bold and spontaneous.

well that's it for now, my contacts are starting to bugging me.

feeling good......


ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......can you believe it? I finally updated my website. after all this time. I finally posted my pictures from CANADA. thanks to my brother, Blaise, of course. such a relief. It's feels good getting that done.

i've been cubing a lot of people today. it's this thing from serendipity. i talked about it the last time i think. anyways...on to other things.

i found a place to live, woo hoo....another thing less to worry about. My new residence will be at Rancho San Joaquin. I have a lovely view of the golf course and it's on the 2nd floor. tell you more about it later.

Tuesday.... i didn't really do much today. I woke up pretty early. I cleaned out my inbox, finally updated my resume, went grocery shopping and studied. And the stuff above.

Monday......so yesterday, i saw signs. It was a good movie. in a weird sorta way. I don't want to give anything away, so that's all i will say. The message/plot of the movie.......everything happens for a reason. Chris and I also went to IKEA. they have the new catalog coming out, it's not out yet though. I am thinking of getting a shelf.


My sister just showed me her senior portraits, better go tailor to her.

serendipity......

I just saw serendipity again. I LOVE that movie. What does serendipity actually mean? According to the movie, it means fortunate accident. I watched it because I wanted to see how to CUBE someone so I could tell ruby about it, which reminds me, I have to call her. Hopely I do it correctly. It's in the bonus stuff, in case you were wondering.

I just wanted to share that little bit with you. Now I am going to update my site. I am so psyche cause I don't have summer school anymore, and I have all this time to do everything.

Exhausted......


excellent...it works like a charm. but now i am rethinking using this template. I am so utterly exhausted. today i called and went around looking for a new place to move into. to my surprise, it was harder than expected. I went to Brittany, but sadly, they don't have any vacant, at least the plan that i am looking for. So since that was my back-up plan and that failed, it really got me worried. so I started calling all these apartments/houses in a panic. luckily, there are still some out there, but not to the exact preferences that i had hope for. looking for a house is really difficult because the owners (damn bastards) don't like renting out to students. It's not like i'm a wild child. I am quite responsible. anyways, i am suppose to go check out Solona, I got a quote there and it's reasonable. hopefully, I can get some sort of deal. ugh.......There's one also at San Paulo, but's it's some sort of bond home (whatever that is). In addition to that, the lady wasn't all too friendly. Right now, I am really leaning towards Solona because the guy I talked to was really nice.

I took a midterm/diagnosis today for my DATs. I really need to study my natural sciences. I improved on perceptual, I still need to work on that too though. Reading wasn't so bad, but i don't know how i'll do on the compter since my strategy works on paper. Qualitative reasoning....man, i was so burnt out that i wasn't giving it my all. So I need to continue doing practice problems on those.

Friday....Chris and I went to arcadia. Why? Sophia had her senior portraits, so I brought her one of my blouses to wear and attempted to beautify her. Also, chris and I watched some DVDs that we didn't finish watching cause my computer gave up playing those chapters. We ate at this Korean Tofu house. The scent was very strong, it attacked my clothes. but i expecially enjoyed the rice because they serve them in those hot stony things. I love the bottom crunchy part.

Thursday.....We went to the mall. Chris needed some more work clothes. He brought a shirt and 3 ties. I wanted him to get this pretty 20s tie. but he didn't. I still think he should have gotten it. anyways, maybe later on.

okay, i need to rest..maybe i'll make some mac and cheese, watch the tube, and study.

testing...

before i dive into this, i just want to test out this new template. even though i've used it before, i wanted to give it another shot.
