Trip to Dallas and Austin
I forgot which holiday (maybe Labor Day?) but it was a three day holiday so we decided to drive to Dallas and Austin cuz WE NE'ER BEEN THERE
B3 B4. I took pictures during the drive to and from, not of the places we visited. Wonderful, isn't it?

To Dallas, front.

Back left (with a sleeping Christina >D).

An Anthony baby.

Back right (sleeping Annie).

Down front, sideways.

To Austin from Dallas.

Beautiful scenery to Austin, ne?

Back.

Down front.

Close up on the Christina of sleep. I think I sleep like that on the car too.

From Austin going home.

It's still amusing, isn't it?

Now both of them have fallen asleep.

I haven't gone on the computer this whole week. I rule.

Life being an ass. Or maybe it's just me.
Yeah, I think it's just me. Since it's you that makes your life an ass.
How could I be such.. a bitch (for lack of a better word)?! Maybe that's what I really am. Because I totally hide it under my innocent exterior. I would just leave it alone but I just can't stop thinking about it. I'm so.. stupid. I know how it feels and yet I just left and didn't help at all, just hung out with the others. People were even telling me, "Wow, that was really mean." I screwed up. Now everyone'll see me as a crazy ass bitch. Cuz the Theatre kids know how I really act. Strange how NONE of them are in any of my other classes and never have been, except for Jennifer and Katie. So the rest don't know me. I like how everyone's all like, "I never knew you were like that," "I would've never guessed you were like that." Now even my teacher knows how I'm really like. The teacher who thought I was this sweet little thing who helped out with everything. Things are gonna be different from now on.

Introducing... YOUR child!!
I would like to know more about your child, through your eyes. The more I know, the better I can tailor an educational and motivational program to fit his or her particular needs. Please answer the questions and complete the information below. Remember, this is from your point of view.
(smiley face) List five words that best describe your child's character (competitive, cheerful, perfectionist).
--competitive, not easily motivated, excited (sorta) [sorta doesn't count as a word]
(smiley face) What motivates your child? What upsets your child?
--Motivates? Nothing much. Unless you bribe her with something she REALLY wants. Her Asian stuff. As for upsetting, she's sensitive. So she gets upset kinda easily. Nothing in particular really upsets her unless she finds out something goes wrong because of her fault. Really, it all depends on her mood.
(smiley face) What are your child's out-of-school interests and activities?
--Good-looking guys and buying their stuff. (I don't mean pimps btw. I'm not a slut. Am I?)
(smiley face) What activities do you share? What problems/successes do you have working/playing together?
--Sometimes it's hard to understand each other. But all and all, we get along alright. We don't talk much about our lives to each other though. She mostly tells her sister.
(smiley face) How would you rate your child's study habits? Circle one:
(poor) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 (super)
(smiley face) What study skills does your child need to develop (neatness, timeliness, organization)?
--Don't slack off. Organization. Actually remembering the information.
(smiley face) What academic subject is your child's best? Worst?
--Best: Math. Worst: Science. Isn't it sad?
(smiley face) What particular academic areas would you like to see stressed?
--Teach her frickin' vocab and critical reading skills. You should've seen that score she got on her Critical Reading section on the PSAT.
(smiley face) What social skills would you like to see stressed?
--She's social enough. Teach her not to be mean in public.
(smiley face) Are there any personal or physical problems I should know or conference privately about (that I would not already know about)?
--She's.. emotional. That's about it.
Other comments or concerns?
--Nope.

Happenings
Nothing really interesting. Last day of school's tomorrow. Woot. And I'm on the computer today because tomorrow are my two easiest exams: Theatre and Algebra. So need to spend hours studying!
I know no one cares about the wonderful grades I always get but..
I got a 95 on my English exam!
Mrs. Lopez basically just took an old SAT, slapped the title Pre-AP English II Fall Exam on the cover, and handed it to us as our exam. So, YEAH, it was hard. Dx But I did so well! That's awesome.
We're heading off to LA this Saturday, gotta wake up at 5am. =__= Oh no. Can't... Don't think I can visit Mischelle though, since I just KNOW we'll never find her house. Our family's unskilled like that.
Um, I'm SO not getting my license before my birthday. It's almost January? The next time I can probably get a class IS January and like, I still have 4 more lessons to go. Sure, I can totally cram em into like, 4 weeks. And do well.
I haven't been driving lately though. I'm probably gonna be crashing into cars again. Dx Not good.
My little baby's been looking so much cuter lately~~!!! AH~ I love him so much. But I know I'll never get to be with him. =( Oh, how I wish to though. He's also been so COOL lately. AGH. I love him. I love him so so much. He's inspired me to do so much. DX <3
TV and stuff are so exaggerated, haven't you realized? It's kinda hard for them to apologize and all that other stuff to people but then in the end, they get the nerve to do so and do it. To me, it used to just be normal even though I had never done it before but think about it. People aren't like that in the world for real. It'd be nice if we were but we just aren't. Everyone's.. tougher, sorta. No one's allowed to do anything these days.
So I was gonna apologize. I truly was cuz I felt really bad for what I had done. But when it came down to it, all I said was, "I'm.. sorry.. about what happened... I guess.. I.. was... you know.." THE END. It is impossible these days to flat out say to someone in person, in anywhere: "SORRY. Sorry about what happened. I really should've helped you. I shouldn't have yelled at you. I shouldn't have said those things. I should've been nicer. I'm really sorry about that." YOU JUST CAN'T SAY THESE TYPES OF THINGS ANYMORE. My, how this world has changed.
I still remember when things were more easy-going back in the days. Wait til the next decade and let's see how things are. I go back to really old entries from the 90's and man, things sure were different back then.
Will I grow to be a good person? Only I can do that. Only I can make myself a good person, the type of person I wanna be in the future. But. I don't know. It's weird. Why?

Outline of 2006
First off I will actually talk about my life again. I know, I know, I haven't mentioned it very clearly anymore. I'll actually do so and bore everyone even more than before. =(
FALL FINALS GRADES: (they're awesome)
Algebra II: 99 --> 100 sem average
World History: 96 --> 97 sem
CompSci: 100 --> 100
English II: 95 --> 95
Chemistry: 100 --> 98
Theatre: 97 --> 95
Spanish III: 99 --> 99
OMG this is the best I've ever done in my life. I didn't even do this well in middle school. This is the first time I ever got all A's on my exams. I RULE. Slap the nerd sticker over my forehead, I don't care, AT LEAST I'VE GOT BETTER GRADES THAN U. OH. Wait. Never mind. I don't think anyone cares anymore.
How ironic. My two hardest exams, CompSci and Chem, were the two exams I got 100s on.
Man, I'm so totally getting at least top 10%. Unless, Junior year kills me, like how it's killing everyone right now. x_x
But I'm gonna feel kinda stupid cuz all these smart people are leaving Elkins to pursue better goals which brings me higher. And then in the end, I'll be in some 1-digit number or something but it's out of default. Cuz I got stuck with all the stupid kids. =(

This year's coming to an end. It feels long, yet it feels short. Time to be sentimental and thought-provoking.
First two sentences of the first entry of each month this year:
January: HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2006 peace out
February: EDITTT!!!!! CHECK OUT THE NEW ADDITIONS TO MY UVERWORLD GALLERY OMGUVERWORLDISTEHNESSDKNALDKFLDK!
--> Real first two sentences: Start time - 2:55pm 20 minutes.. begin. Turning point junk happened today.
March: Time passed by fast today in PE. The other team barely even moved so flag football wasn't so fun...
April: First entry of this week. o_o Lots of things have happened in such a short amount of time.
May: I'm skipping classes that nothing really happened in. 6 page packet due at the end of the period, were expected to find all answers in textbook, YOU try finding the answers to those questions in the textbook.
June: Last night me and Christina-- Call us immature or whatever but we were really bored. xPP Hate someone?
July: Random mp3 survey. Put mp3's on shuffle and write down the songs as they come.
August: I'm confused about the upcoming SCs. Okay, actually, I'm not confused, I'm just... speechless, I guess you can say.
September: NO ENTRIES!
October: Well it's been about two months since I've written anything. *cackles* *jk* There just hasn't been anything to talk about?
November: I just could NOT fall asleep that night for some reason. It was really weird.
December: I forgot which holiday (maybe Labor Day?) but it was a three day holiday so we decided to drive to Dallas and Austin cuz WE NE'ER BEEN THERE B3 B4. I took pictures during the drive to and from, not of the places we visited.
When I saw February's entry, I was like, OMG! UVERworld! I totally remember obsessing them to death. And in a month it was just liking them.
And March?! OMG, it seems like forever since I was in PE freshman year! But that was only MARCH?!!
One day (maybe like after this entry), I might go and look back at my '06 entries. It's like.. a book.. of me.. my life. It's just awesome to see how much I've changed JUST FROM THE BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR. That's awesome.

Big happenings in '06:
- January - First time at Elkins, decided to be a loner and quieted down to death, hated/disliked everyone and everything in the world

2006's New Year's Resolutions: (let's see how I did)
Adjust to new school well. ADJUSTED.
Get better eating/study/tidiness habits. Umm.. maybe I should work on that a bit more this year..
Try to be a likeable person.. -_- (OMG! I haven't used that face for the longest time!!! o__O Weeiirrrdddd...) Not exactly likeable, but not UNlikeable, unlike before. (?) So it counts.
Don't be lazy when making cosplay! =O Laziness = ugliness. Unless you are just fantastic and laziness = good. But no. You are not fantastic. You are lazy. (Wo-ho! o_O I talk to myself! XD) TOTALLY became laziER. Actually I stopped making cosplays. Maybe I should sorta start back again? It's good for me-ish..
...Don't be as lazy as you are right now... >_>; In the middle-ish of the year, I became more lazy, partly because my grandparents moved in to help out with chores. But later when they left, I helped out, a lot, more than ever. I'm still sorta lazy-ish, but I actually do housework; I make it my priority.
Make new friends. Or you're gonna have a very bad high school life. I think crossing it out can work. I don't really consider them my "friends" but they're people to talk to; that's what I consider them. I don't use the word "friend" so loosely anymore. But I guess others can consider them so.
Learn to be good at something. Cuz you're not. Except Geometry. But yeah, that makes you talented. -_- (OMG I'm using it again!! =O Weeiirrrdddd...) I've got many things I plan on learning to do. =D Let's do that for this year, ne? I'm good at math, I realized. And I am starting to get better at writing (or it's just that Mrs. Lopez is an easy grader.) I'm gonna cross it out. I think I finally realized that there is something I actually WANT to do.
Don't get sad, mad, or depressed as easily as you do now. You've learned from your mistakes so you know what not to do, what doesn't work. (Wow, Kokoro was right. Journals are like talking to yourself. o_O;) Became a happier person this year. A soul/money-stealing man helped me along the way. Thank you.
Be good to Mommy and Daddy. Where would you be without them? I'm helping Mommy with housework now. I didn't do it before. =)
Have an awesome year! =) This is one of the weirdest years I had in my life. Yet it was awesome. Thank you FTW-ing 2006.
8/10. That is.. awesome.

New Year's Resolutions for 2007:
- You will be the most wonderful little child, so wonderful that you actually get to BUY the stuff you want with your own money. And the parents don't refuse. The parents let you.
- That means someone has to get a job. Sometimes too picky ain't so great. When it comes to money, YOU NEED IT. How you gon' get money (besides washing dishes for Momma)?
- Try to get super awesome grades as you did last semester. Cuz maybe you'll get more money. And you'll be allowed to buy all that stuff you plan on getting over the summer. >=D
- PASS YOUR DRIVER'S TEST && GET YOUR LICENSE. If you dare enter Junior year without a license, well, YOU'll feel the pain.
- Let's continue from that '06 res. Better study/everything else habits, ne?
- Don't put off/proscrastinate. If you want something done, GET IT DONE. You have a horrible habit of not doing so no matter how much you want it done. Not good.
- Now that you've learned the pain and have some experience, maybe it's time to get out there and have real feelings for someone. It'll do some good.
- Wouldn't it be nice if you knew exactly what you wanted to do with your life?
- Financial problems. YOU WILL LEARN TO CONTROL YOURSELF. That debt issue. SHIT, it's comin' true. o_o Or it will.
- You have a problem of letting things people say get to you. This year, enough of that. Try not to be so
shitting sensitive to what others may think.

I'm turning 16 this year. Too bad that my birthday's on the same day as Chinese New Year, which means someone's not gonna have a sweet sixteen party. Oh well, I don't really need one.

Elkins freakin' changed like half the school's schedules. Actually, maybe it's more like 85% of the school's schedules. So now, here's my new schedule:
- English II
- World History
- Algebra II
- Comp Sci
- Chemistry
- Theatre I
- Spanish III
The teachers are still the same, which is good. Not having Comp Sci 3rd period anymore makes me sad. =( I would change it but 3rd period is the only period that Mr. Corrington has Alg II H and I don't want Han. Plus, even if I didn't mind Han, that would mean they'd have to switch either my 5th, 6th, or 7th period, and those are my freakin' favorite periods. That I totally do not want switched. I'm glad that they weren't switched, by the way. Guess I'll have to get through Comp Sci by myself, without any help. =(
