JUSTINE'S COTILLION justine's cotillion was fun. it's sad that practices have ended. dancing was fun. reallly tiring since i only got a few hours of sleep. ate at denny's after..went back to the hotel around 3 something.

we went to our rooms. something went down..and maybe some of you might know what happened. what a way to end a night.

COUNTDOWN: 5 DAYS 5 more days, and i think i'm coming down with a cold. had it coming though...since we practice in the COLD COLD WEATHER!!!!! but yeah, while practicing, we were video taped. at the end, we watched it, and we were pretty good. yayyyyaaa.

today, i've come to many SAD REALIZATIONS...about people i considered my friends. not my ohan...they're fuckin dope and there's no problems there. i had conversations with 2 people..and it really made me sick to think people can act this way. friendship? how can you treat someone better than how you would treat a childhood friend? secrecy...segregating..lies....shit talking...stop thinking about yourselves and having fun. not all of you guys, but MOST of you. you guys disregard people's feelings....your own friend's feelings. although i'm not directly affected, it makes me so sad, cause i thought i was brought in too. i hope karma gets you guys in the ass...cause you're all going in the wrong direction.

hahahaha. ok...i'm done. bye! =]

INSERT SUBJECT HERE Jennelle now has a blog! hahaha. you can find her here:STANKS

the quarter is almost over. i'm proud of myself. i kept true to my "vow". finals are coming up. finals are almost here. ahhhhh!

when i got out of my class at 5:40pm, it was already dark. i made my way to my 6pm class. As i was walking, i entered a section of the school that was not lit with lamp posts. i walked cautiously, unable to see what's is front of me, occasionally stumbling on uneven pavement. that area: a kidnapper's/rapist's dream

CRYSTAL'S ENTOURAGE REUNION 3 months after her cotillion, Crystal FINALLY had a reunion. Everyone came, except for Rachelle. Even folks that performed "Beat It" came too.

Before this, Yabs came over. We bought a whole pizza. She had 5 slices, and I had 4. woah man. After this, I plucked her eyebrows and we headed to Crystal's house.

There, we watched the video, looked and pictures, and ate.

After, we all headed to SJSU to go bowling. Dre, Justine, and I didn't drive, so we left our cars at Crystal's house. That was a first for me. Usually I'm a driver.

Got there, and I decided not to go bowling. I chose to invest my money in something better-- FOOD! haha. Grant, Ejae, Justine, and I headed to Jack in the Box. I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY RAISED THEIR PRICES!!!!!!! The items that used to be 99 cents are now $1.29!!!!! Damnit!

Me and Jovver were playing Air-hockey. I was winning 5-2. Suddenly, I see the girls laughing at me. They then started wispering. I guess that threw off my concentration. Jovver won. =P Later that night, Rachel told me they were laughing just my boobs jiggled a little when I hit the puck. boo!

While everyone bowled, I just watched. Jeff was disappointed cause he didn't break 100....Jd won...and they stopped the game because Jovver went running past the "line"(on the side of all the lanes). how rude of them...there weren't even signs posted.

After, we headed to Q-Cup in Milpitas. After, Ejae drove Me, Justine, and Rachel back to get our cars. I felt bad. Ejae scratched his rims against a curb while driving up the twisted ramp in the car garage. You could BARELY see it, but he was still bummed.

Now I'm home. We're taking pictures tomorrow for Justine's Cotillion. Gotta be at her house by 11am. Gotta wake up early. ahhh. There's also gonna be practice after that. Cotillion is 3 weeks away!!! woooohoo!
Jd bought some NIKE Dunks. He's returning them to buy a video game. blah, typical.

TORTURE!!!! my astronomy class is in deanza's planetarium. when you walk in, the first thing you see is a screen projected onto the round overhead. ASTRON 04 TEST 2 results. on that screen, it shows how many peope got A's, B's, C's, D's, and F's. PURE TORTURE. i sat down in my usual spot, staring at the screen. "am i one of the 35 that got an A?" the suspense was killing me. 20 mins later, out teacher lays down all the test arranged in order of our last name.

g-j. i went up. i searched for my scantron...and was sooo disapointed when i saw my grade. 88%. i sat down in utter disappointment. as we reviewed our answers, i found out i omitted 2 questions. that's 4 points right there! i was sooooo maddddd! only I would do something that stupid.

anyways, our teacher marked quite a few people wrong for a correct answer. luckily, i'm one of those people. 2 more points...which gives me a 90%. yay. but boo!

oh yeah, i got a good grade on my in-class essay for my lab. at least that made my day

ANOTHER "OH YEAH": i ripped my jeans again. as i was bending down to go under justine's garage(practice today), i ripped my jeans at my butt. AHHH!! my 3rd pair of butt-ripped jeans. sadly, they were all my EXPRESS jeans. ARGHHHHH!!

justine's cha cha has some boooooty shaking. hehe

I LOVE PLUCKING EYEBROWS! ok. i'm a weirdo...but i like plucking eyebrows...especially mine.

but not only do i pluck mine, i pluck all my friends' too. noo..i don't SHAPE them..but i like cleaning them (pulling stray hairs)

my regulars are jennelle and rachel...sometimes i pluck abby's and jd's unibrow..and my rare ones are justine and chato.

today at practice, i was cleaning rachel's eyebrows. JAY saw, and wanted his cleaned. I WARNED him, and he said hes fine with it. (you see...jay has thick hair..and has hairy eyebrows)

so i looked at them, planned what to take off..and went away...

and JAY was in SOOOOOOOO much pain! haha. the unibrow was fine...but when i hit the actual eyebrows...oh boy.

you see, jay's like the comedian of us all.. so while i was plucking, oh boy, i got a good laugh.

"is this used as torture in some countries?!!"
"i'd rather get into a fight than this"
"man...it felt like you were slicing my lid"


those were just some of his quotes.

anyways...jay has really sensitive skin..so he had temporary pink eyeshadow

wanna see a picture of jay? it's somewhere in my pics..just look under recent pic or OHANA. i'm too lazy.

practice today=COLD!
justine's cotillion=november 29

wooohooooooo!!! funnnnnnnn!!!!!!
