BATTLE OF THE SEXES FINALLY, i got to watch the episode i missed. DAMN EMILY! GOSH DARN OOGLY GRRR ARGHHH!!! she pisses me off. what a hypocrite. she tried her best to get VERONICA out(someone who WANTED to be there and benifited the team), only in the end to leave because "her sister needs her" and her boyfriend is "her support". i know it's the truth, but damn...oh well, at least LORI is up in the inner circle. and another thing...congrats to those girls. they FINALLY won a prize..and a good one.THE INCIDENT at home, sunday night, i'm feeling hungry. i contemplate. "what am i in the mood for? mcdonalds? jack in the box? wendys?"
jack in the box. my usual consists of 2 tacos, and a jumbo jack..which ends up to be $2.14. oh yeah. can't forget buttermilk sauce. MmMm
i scrumaged for money. 2 bucks and a quarter. phew. i went on my way.
usually, the drive thru line would be full of anxious cars. there was 1 car in front of me. YES! while the man in front was at the window, i see a homeless man standing to its side.
he shows the driver his sign, and doesn't get any money from him. i see the dissapointment on his face when he is turned down. he walks to my car
"do you have any money?" i didn't have any spare money. all i had on me was those 2 bucks and a quarter. "i'm sorry, i only have enough money for my food" was my freply. "not even 50cents?" he asks again. sadly, i said "no"
he walks off. my window is partly open. as he walks, he makes a comment towards me.
"damn. it's just a fucken dollar"
may sound corny, but i'll never forget that. if i had money, i would've gave him some. it hurt me to see the dissapointment in his eyes. it's sad how he didn't believe me. i started to cry. it hurt me that he said that...it hurt both of us that i didn't have any money to give him...it hurts thinking that he has to live that way.
my change: 11 cents. i drive back to see if i can catch up to him and give him what i had. he left.

IT'S AROUND 3:55, WHAT AM I DOING UP AT THIS TIME!??! around 12am, i saw that there was a BATTLE OF THE SEXES marathon on MTV. never sick of it, i stayed toon and watched the same ol' episodes. on monday, for the first time in HISTORY, i missed an episode. and look and that, i had to miss the episode that was "to be continued..."! what luck!anyways, i'm hoping that they'll show that episode. i can't STAND not knowing what happened. it's KILLING ME, i tell you!!! veryyyyyyyyyy slowly. soooo, to relieve it, i'm thinking of staying up for it. but what if they don't show the episode. right now 4am, they're showing the episode when VERONICA gets her foot caught in the stirrup. gosh..it'll probably be 6am when they show the episode. yes, i can TAPE it, but i have to tapes. gosh darnit.
on another note, yabs' mom keeps calling me at this time in the morning. the first time was at 2:49am, and the second was just now...3:58am. yabs isn't home yet. after the meeting today we headed to mcdonalds. from there, everyone went home. yabs went to jennelle's house. hmm. they probably fell asleep watching tv or something. but i feel so sorry for her mom. she's very worried. she's been trying all that time, and she can't get a hold of jennelle. she even told me she's gonna head over there and pick her up. REMEMBER, IT'S 4 IN THE MORNING RIGHT NOW. awww. poor auntie and yabs. =\ it's a good thing i'm awake at this time, or else auntie would be talking to ONE GROGGY KAREN.

FRIDAY NIGHT volunteer night at FYC. i picked up jennelle, her friend dan, and jd. that night we mainly painted posters for BATTLE OF THE TRIBES. after, around 9ish, all of us, plus yabs, headed to JACk in the Crack to get some food. then we headed out to a hill that overlooks san jose..so up we went on the road...the road narrows...the turns get sharper. i was driving kinda fast going uphill, which gave me a FAT HEADACHE. i continued up, waiting for jennelle to tell me where to make a turn. IT WAS PITCH BLACK...the only light i had were my headlights..me and jd, in the front seats, were FREAKED. UP and UP we went. driving up, we saw the view of san jose. we were hella high...
apparantly we missed the turn. i made a u-turn and went down the hill. SCARY..
we decided to go to the "man-made-lake" which was nearby. there, we ate our food and chilled. it was 10:40pm. i had to go home. i was already near home, but i still had to drop off my friends. so one by one, i drop them home. I FEEL LIKE THROWING UP. the roads were bumpy, and my head was pounding.
11:30pm. i get home. mother's home already. i get in trouble. i didn't do the dishes, and my room's a mess. mother's mad. i go to my room, go to my bed. to make things short : my mom's HELLA HELLLA HELLLA pissed.
SATURDAY MORNING i wake up at 7:20am for some strange reason. mom made threats at me, and i dared her to do it, which gets her more mad. basically, we butting heads. we can't stop. i'm fed up with everything, and she is too. all i gotta say it..when i turn 18, things are gonna change.

WOW... today, during STAR testing, seniors were able to get their cap and gown. when i got home, and tried it on...wow. i can't believe i'm finally graduating high school. i remember when i was a small kid...looking up to the "kool older high school kids". now, i'm one of them (minus the "kool"). i must admit, i got a little teary eyed when i realized that i won't be coming back to silver creek for another year.I'M STUCK ON LEVEL 20! arghhhhh!!!!!

FOOODDDDDD!!! just as i'm TRYING to get into "diet mode"...food seems to be tempting me. find myself eating more and moreee junk food. when i'm finished with one meal, i look for something else i could eat. ahhhhhhh!!! i have no will power when it comes to cutting down food. no will power at all. although i'd like to have a nice body, food seems so much better than that.* sigh*6:59 AM .

THASS COO, THASS COO friday, i found out that our GRAD NIGHT is back on (senior trip). due to the war, it was postponed. after realising there was little possibilty of danger, it was put back on.$200. leaving on a friday morning, and coming back on a saturday afternoon, the trip doesn't seem worth it. yes, we go to universal studios, eat dinner at california adventure, and from there, go to disneyland...but when you look at it, it's only about 14 hours of SO-CAL that we get. yes, it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience to go with all your classmates, but with all the expenses that i'm paying...and will be paying, it doesn't seem worth it.... =P
saturday there was a family party at my aunt's house. my mom asked if JD wanted to come, so he came. it was kool. ohhh the fooood. MmMMM. me, jd, melissa and kat headed to WALMART around 11pm. since JOLIBEE was in the area, i decided to get some food. at 12am, we headed home. oh, did i mention that i was the driver for that 30 minute drive? argh. i was soo pooped. since im so lazy, 10:40ish is my new bedtime. i drove home, because JD left his cellphone in the garage. TOTALLY POOPED, i asked mother to drive, so she did, while i layed in the backseat. on our way home, mother wanted me to drive. argh.

GAME OF THE MOMENT: GRIDLOCKWEEKEND RECAP
friday was fun. ate shar, a mentor who worked for for FYC, resigned. we had a "farewell party". it was fun. a nice way to say goodbye. AFTERWARDS, the OHAN girls, along with jd and jeff, went to INDEPENDENCE HS to watch the spring musical, GREASE. 2 of our friends, RYAN AND ALEX, played lead roles. after watching the great performance, we all headed to grab a bite at mickeyD's. what a long day...
saturday was cotillion practice again. it was kool cause everyone (except for 3) showed up. worked on formations and ended early. after, the "ohan girls", jay, jovver, and jeff just chilled in my room and playd gamecube. YOU SEE... my room isn't that big. it's kinda small. so having like, 8 people in it was a doozy. SINCE JENNELLE'S PROM was the next saturday, and SINCE SHE HASN'T FOUND A DRESS YET, we decided all to go dress shopping. no luck.
sunday: daylight savings time. arghhh. 1 hour of lost sleep. oh well. i need to find a dress for prom. SERIOUSLY, i don't wanna go all out. i don't need to show up in a limo, or wear a $300 dress. i don't need all of that just to have fun. all i need is...
-a dress under $100
-my boyfriend
-jennelle to do my hair
-to lose some weight
-free parking in the downtown garages
-money for food
...and i'm all SET. a simple prom is alright with me.
