hmm...so this weekend was interesting...saw a SHITLOAD of uni people...it was weird...

thanksgiving...went to kim's house for potluck...damn chinese dude...it was all asian food...so all the kids were complaining =)...watched lord of the rings...the first one...and since erica was there...everything made so much more sense...lol...then headed over to andrews to play some majong...with rosa's COOL majong set =)

friday...did some hw...researched a bit...went to starbucks to meet up koichi with andy...they talked about music...=)...it was pretty cool...something different...AND there was about 1000 uni people there...people that i had pretty much forgotten about...it was so random...then headed over to steve/charles place to play trivia pursuit...DUDE...that game is HARD...but guess what?! I WON! lol...chalres and andrew were sooooooo mad...too bad im just awesome like that

saturday...finished off two of my 1000 assignments due next week...got ready to go out...headed over to kristins...met up kristin, rosa, and steph and headed over to AD...again...saw about 1000 familiar faces...apparently it was one of the girls' b-day...whatever...thanks to that guy, we got a table...drank it up...danced some...poor steph was sick and passed out on the couch...but she managed to make it to the beginning and the end of the night =) we got rosa pretty messed up though =)

today...hasnt really started yet...im already exhausted...and these next days are goign to be hell...wish me luck...

and good luck to everyone that is in the same position as me...cuz i know theres a lot =) we're almost done with the semester/quarter...just a couple more weeks =)

have a great thanksgiving...

a lot has happened/changed this past year that i am very very grateful for...if i look back just two years...my life was so different....just totally on the wrong path...and now...things are looking much better...not perfect...but much improved...

there is so much that i am thankful for...i guess if you read this...then i am thankful that you are my friend...and that you have come into my life...everything happens for a reason...and even to those that i dont talk to everyday...its knowing that we can pick up right where we left off...

thank you to all that have been supportive...that have stuck with me through all this time...new friends...old friends...and of course family...

treasure what you have

U-C-L-A SUCKS! lol...what a great cheer...i guess you would have to go to usc to know what im talking about...but yeah...we killed LA today...47-22 =) the game got all screwy at the end...but whatever...ohio lost too...so we should be back at no. 2 =)

i think the highlight of the game off the field was then this guy totally decked out in trojan clothing...wig and all...stood up and poured a bag of sugar in his mouth...=) it was pretty cool...then he gagged on it...and it was even cooler...but yeah...

ok...its too hard to think right now...im goign to crash...night all!
