DAMNIT..NEXT QUARTER'S GONNA SUCKKK!REGISTRATION TIME: 5AM
i set my alarm clock for 4AM to wake up and get ready. i woke up, but apparently i should've set the time a little later, cause i went back to sleep. i woke up on my own at 6:30am, rushed out of bed and went to the computer as fast as i could. i TRIED logging in, and what i hoped WOULDN'T happen did---registration was down.
"THE SYSTEM IS CURRENTLY NOT UNAVAILABLE" IN RED LETTERS. it's around 8am...and it's still not working. i know the classes that i wanted to take are gonna be full...i'll be left with shitty teachers and shitty times. i didn't call the others to see how they did because i know they're sleeping....but if i would have just stayed up when i FIRST woke up..MAYBE i could've been going to school not worried about anything except my accounting exam.
arghhhh. i'll have to try during my break. 11:30am. that gives lots of time for people to steal my classes. =\

I'VE SET A PERSONAL RECORDyes folks. i've accomplished something so extradinary that it needs to be posted.
for the 3rd time within the timespan of the past 3 month, i've caught a cold. i can't stop sneezing, my throat hurts from breathing through it, and my nose is a never-ending spout for nose goo. it was extremely cold last night, and at times, i wore next to nothing (by that i mean no jacket in freeeeezing weather). my immune system is at an all-time low because of the lack of vitamin C/fruits in my diet...meaning i brought this all upon myself. damnit.
finals are next week.
wowza. i just realized i'm going to the philippines soon...a little over 2 weeks. let the countdown begin.

HAPPY TURKEY DAYtoday's turkey day, and plans still seem a little vague. gonna watch a movie with chato and jd, and hopefully hit up his family party. haha. needed to add a little slang into that sentence. since jd went to my thanksgiving last year, this time it's his turn.
by the way, JENNELLE's back in town. visited her after school yesterday, and boy, did i miss that girl. her hair is soo cute, her eyebrows are nice, and it seems to me that she shrunk and got even cuter. her presence is oh so indescribable and reminds me of how much i miss her.
tomorrow is one of the days that i don't mind waking up at 6 in the morning. SHOPPPINGGGGG!!!!!! =]
ps. very cliche, but i'm thankful for everything right now. my parents..they can be a handful sometimes(haha), but they've supported me all my life, and continue to do so, even when i'm how old and is the most stubborn/lazy/messiest daughther in the world. we have our ups and downs...but when we have our ups, everything is great. friends...2 words--THE GREATEST! all the laughs, great company, and laughs. love you all. and lastly, there's jd. our relationship has been a true rollercoaster. i've gotta admit, i don't want to imagine life without you. you've brought so much laughter, love, sorrow, happiness, and so much more into my life. thanks for the best 2 years and 4 months of my life.

WHY AM I UP?it's 4am saturday night..my mom's at work and my dad's sleeping. now tell me why am i still up at this hour?
i'm filling out some "PERSONAL DOCUMENTS" right now...doing some preparation for my month of hell. hopefully all goes as planned. i got some math hw due on monday that i feel like doing right now..even though i can SOOO do it tomorrow. been getting friendly with my 6-stringed instrument. ahhh..it's great. and i STILL don't feel sleepy...
today was great. jd, william, and chato picked me up and we headed to bulldogs lifestyles. jd finally got his lip pierced. now that he quit WOLF CAMERA, nothing's holding him back from getting that piercing. i want my lip pierced...but i talked to mom about it and she said i'll look like a slut. but hey..this is coming from the woman that threw out my jeans that had holes in them because she felt "they made me look indecent". arghhhhh.
headed to the mall after and did some shopping. i was determined to walk out of the mall with at least 1 article of clothing, and i achieved that goal byfar by walking out with 2 articles of clothing. GO KAREN!!
there was a mini halo2 TOURNEY ("it's a tourney!!!") at media play. 1 guy was really good, and the other guy sucked. watched them for a while..and headed to Jd's cause we wanted to play.
headed to justine's/rach's for lola's birthday...FUN times with RACH and our sleeping mannequin william. hahaha.
hhaha..we couldn't resist. everytime william would twitch..me and rach would shift our attention to something else and start a random conversation...haha. there was no turon left after the party..but i got to take home some BURNT ALMOND cake =]
ok. i gotta finish my "to do list". it's been 20 minutes since i first started BLOGGING and i'm STILL not sleepy. i didn't even have any source of caffiene today. ok folks. time for me to go go.

DISAPPOINTED..wednesday night, me and jd found out that NOT SO SILENT NIGHT got sold out. what the hell!!!!!!!!!!!!
i'm sickkk..AGAIN! just a few weeks ago, i was recovering from a cold. last night, my throat was scratchy. when i woke up this morning, my throat felt HORRIBLE, and my nose was stuffed with BOOGERS. grrrrrrrrrr!!!!
my mom and dad are spending soooooooooo much on this trip to the philippines. lately, they've been sending TONS of boxes to get sent to the philippines. i think they've sent 5 or 6 so far. it doesn't help that my mom has about 5 sisters there..1 brother..and a whole bunch of neices, newphews, grandneices, grandnephews...and my dad's side is just the same. the plane tickets were MUCHO EXPENSIVO...all the costco trips..and buying some gifts..dang. but hey, that's what happens when you decide to go to the PHILIPPINES in december.
and lastly..HAPPY BIRTHDAY YABS!!!!! you're FINALLY 18. i love youuu.

I'M TAKING A BREAK FROM STUDYINGtoday was a good day, if i do say so myself. lunch at miyake's with jd and justine..obento box!!! wooohooo!! california rolls, salad, rice, miso soup, tempura, and chicken teriyaki for the good price of 7 bucks. yay for miyaki's! YOSHI!!!!
on saturday, me and justine decided that we would SPLURGE and go shopping today. when i say "SPLURGE", i mean i would spend about 30 bucks on clothes, and justine would spend no more than $100. we went to oakridge..giggled and got crazy when we saw the new target. only WE would go crazy over a TARGET. they had those cool escalators for the shopping carts and even a frozen section. crazy stuff.
looked around...found nothing..got SOO pooped. justine wanted to go into a store called METRO[SOMETHING]..and that just did it for me. the store smelt REALLY weird and really stinked, which made me feel 10 times worse.
i thought when i hit forever 21, my "splurging" would begin. but the fact that i was feeling soo horrible, i wasn't really in the MOOD to shop.
in the end, i walked out with a pair of boxers for less than 4 bucks..and justine--nada.
went to justine's...ate food and felt OH-SO better. rested for a very long time, then headed to starbucks to study for tomorrow's accounting exam.
NOT SO SILENT NIGHT LINE UP:
i'm pretty sure we're going...weeeee!!! =D
back to accounting. later folks.

WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!!just being pessimistic. i'm really upset with the election. i was sure that KERRY was going to win, but i guess not everyone has the same mentality about the administration as i do. today was full of discussions/opinions about the our president. ever since BUSH's presidency, i've found myself MUCH more interested in politics and our economy..maybe because almost everything he did i was against. i have NO idea what's in store for us in the future, but i hope BUSH gets his head on straight...or else me and justine are going to move to europe. =]
during my break, i found out that jeff's car got stolen into. i feel bad because last year, his whole car got stolen. this time, they just stole his stereo. sorry about that jeff. also..jan's car got broken into last night. it may be the same folks because they live in the same area.
since it's been a while since i updated with pictures..here you guys go. they're mainly from this summer. enjoy!
hahha..it took me a heck of a long time to find those dolphins
swimming at jay's house
me and rach
jd, william, chato, and me at six flags
natural beauty...*sigh*

ELECTION DAYok..it's election day today...and honestly, i'm terified. This is an extremely close race and one of the most important elections in history. i feel bush is an extremely bad president and made a lot of bad decisions. going after sadaam instead of osama...not taking threats about 9-11 seriously...funding of the war...against stem cell researching..against gay marriages...not taking global warming seriously..and a whole bunch more.
if bush becomes elected president...i think there's going to be a lot of chaos and protesting over it.
i wanted to write this last night, but i fell asleep..so write when i woke up..i headed to my comp. i gotta go get ready for school now...
bye folks
