Un Natural

So today, was hopefully the worst day of my summer. First, went shoe shopping with my grandparents and my mom. Turns out that we meet George, a graduated senior from Lowell. He goes on to tell my mom all this stuff about how he and his friend Jennifer didn't get into their first pick colleges. This inspires my mom to rant and lecture me about how I should try harder and not slack off. Then we had to drop off my dad for his knee surgury. After his apathetic leave, my mom is again inspired to start ranting to me about how screwed up my parents are, then goes back to the college thing, then starts bashing me on how I don't have any idea what I want to do with my life. And then, she starts comparing me to my cousins who already know what they want to be when they grow up. And then she starts bashing the one profession that I thought would be worth while: architecture. Saying how it doesn't pay well and loads of other crap. She then gets mad at me for not being able to see and not being able to read an eye chart, because my vision got worse. Note that this was at DMV where some odd 20 people could hear her more or less making fun of me. So today, I spent a majority of my time being pissed off at my mom.

I swear, she doesn't want me to have a life. She basically said to me to grow up, stop fooling around (as if I had anyway) and think seriously about my career options. I mean, what the f**k? She gets mad at me when I never did anything and she complains about her marriage to me when I can't to jack squat. The worst thing is, I had to take all this or else I would've gotten into trouble. I almost yelled at her to shut up and go see a marriage counselor. Really. I think it's unhealthy as well as unnatural to be this spiteful of your mother. I think something is seriously wrong with me.

Pushing all this aside, the good things in my day are: I got some navy chucks, and I got my permit. Pretty pathetic huh? I'm gonna go sleep and see if that helps me cool down.

I feel o so wise now...

I'm not gonna lie to you. Wisdom teeth extraction hurts like ....well hell. Woke up at 8 to get ready for the operation. Then when I got there, waited bout half an hour and then they started. Went under and slept until maybe... 12? Then I got home and slept some more... woke up cuz of the excruciating pain. This happened maybe twice. So then me and my brother added it up and I slept for about 18 hours today. That would be totally awesome, if it weren't for the fact I was in pain for most of the time.
Doc says I can start doing things tomorrow.. but I'm not sure if i want to. My face is so swollen, it looks like a square. So yea.. call me up if you wanna do something.. Gonna miss soccer tomorrow.. damn
Speaking of which, Korea didn't make the top 16. I'm so ashamed right now... you don't even know.

Summer - Week 1

This week, I was at Eagle Camp at Los Mochos. It was a very interesting experience, to say the least. I was eaten alive by mosquitos (30+ bites) and baked by the friggin' 95+ degree sun but I had a lot of fun. I was up there with my T333 guys and met some really cool T14 kids up there too. Also met some awesome kids from all over the Bay Area. There's no way I can fit everything that's happened to me into a single post, so I won't bother trying. I'll just say as much fun as I had up there, I have never been so happy to see the SF Bay fog in my life. ever.
I made an appointment with DMV to get my permit. I'm gonna 0wn that test. I also gotta get my wisdom teeth pulled tomorrow, so going to sleep soon. O and I'm gonna start lifting with summer track on Monday. I'm gonna have so much fun this summer, it's mind numbing.

Wanna go see CARS?

Summer's Official Start

So I think I've come to think of this blogger as my own personal journal of some sort. And I guess that a journal needs daily if not weekly entries. So I'll try to update more often. What's more initative was that summer has offically started! O man, this is gonna be a great one! Although my parents are piling on all this extra work. Like SAT Prep. And Boy Scout Junk. It's not a lot, but it gets in the way of a whole bunch of stuff i want to do.
I'm gonna be leaving this Saturday or Sunday; don't know which one. Won't be back to the following weekend, so don't expect to hear from me until then. And then a mix of crazy fun, summer track, Contour, learning guitar, soccer, and going out with a bunch of friends.
I've got a whole bunch of stuff lined up. Warped Tour with my brother and Gordon. Then Contour with Gen. Then something for my Birthday. It doesn't come with its own unpleasentness. I got to get my wisdom teeth pulled on the 24th. But besides that, I don't think I'll have too much trouble enjoying myself.
Today was self scheduling. I think I've gotten a good schedule. As Follows:
  • 1/2/(3) - nothing. another late start
  • (3)/4/5 - Physics - Staff-W rm. S205
  • REG.
  • 6/7 - Korean 5 - Cho rm. 215
  • (8)/9/10 - APUSH - Wold rm. 233
  • 11/12 - Comedy & Satire - Carney rm. 139
  • 14/15 - Art - Joyce rm. 70
  • 16/17/(18) - Pre-Calc - Fahey rm. 271
  • (18)19/20 - Soccer. presumably.
Gotta get my soccer skills up to scratch.

Finals are over!

Wow today was great! First and foremost, I only had the english final to do. What really sucks is that I have to go to class tomorrow, but whatever. Went to Wendy's Birthday... uh party. Had some awesome food. Shame I didn't get her anything. But then, I've never really given birthday presents. Sorry Wendy!
Then me, Rayson, Gordon, and Temba went to go see X-Men: The Last Stand. To tell the truth, it wasn't all that great. But we got some laughs out of it. Like Juggernaut being a dickhead, and a naked Mystique. And "I'm the Juggernaut, BITCH!" Man, I'm gonna be laughing about that for a while. All in all though, it was a waste of money. If you're going to see it, go see it during matinee hours.
Gordon and Rayson then came over to have dinner and stuff. I totally owned them at deuces. Hey guys, you should come over and play some cards more often. I've got like three new guitar projects: Closing Down the Pattern Department (intro), Simple, Starving to Be Safe (into), When I Come Around (intro). When I finish the intros, I'll do the rest, assuming I'm good enough to play them.
The whole 'no comments' thing in a seperate post.

A Stress Reliever

Here's the deal. Write whatever you want, to whoever you want. Don't say the name. Don't allow comments.

1. I hope I don't try your patience to its endpoint. If I do, I"m sorry. I'm sorry about being the way I am, but I can't help it. It seems that everytime I try to get close to you, I seem to loose my nerve and become your friend. Your ordinary friend. Why is it that everytime I'm alone, I think about you and how much fun we would have together? I guess I doubt I would be able to keep you with me, or that you might think ill of me. Or maybe it's that I seek companionship that only a relationship could bring. I promise to change, but until I do, just know that every spare second I have is a second spent thinking about you.

2. You annoying peice of crap! Why is it that you always have to get in my way and annoy me? I guess its that you don't give me the outward respect I think I deserve. If you did, maybe things wouldn't be as bad as they are now. Just remember that I will always try to protect you from anything you need protecting from, and that listen to any problems you might. I hope you mature into someone like me, but at the same time, I hope that you carve out your own path. Just remember, I'll always be proud of you, no matter what decisions you decide to make in the immediate and distant future.

3. I only met you this year, but I feel like I've known you for my entire life. I feel like I can be my genuine self around you and I thank you for allowing me to relax. You have quickly become someone whom I can call a best friend. Don't have too many of those. I don't give that sort of title to many people, but you definitely deserved it. Without you this year, I can't even imagine how much different I would be. So thank you for helping me become me.

4. You know, I used to idolize you. I guess I still do. I wish I knew you when you were younger, and if you were anything like me when you were my age. I'm just so curious of whether or not we would have been the best of friends or the worst of enemies. Hopefully, the former. I want to know the story behind your words, and the experiences you lived through. I hope that as I continue to grow up, that you continue to guide me through this crazy roller coaster. I'll admit that you haven't been doing a great job at that, but nobody's perfect, not even idols. But the life lessons you taught me have helped me immensly, and hope to hear more of them before I hit the road.

5. This one is to a whole group of people. You've been the most supportative group I have ever known. I'm amazed that I didn't know you guys last year. I admire you guys for being so great at what you do and that you give it your all everytime. Don't ever stop what you do. I'll be seeing you guys next year, hopefully better than when I left. I do believe that I have found my clique.

6. I'm sorry that I haven't seen you in so long, but I've had other things to do. I've moved on from this place and gone somewhere I can improve myself, not just my physical prowess, if it can be call prowess. It's not that I dislike what I have done, on the contrary, it was the most fun I have ever had up till this point. But here, there is a limit to what I can accomplish. I have to keep striving to better myself. I'll still see you outside, and maybe even see me to come back, but don't expect me to stay long or put my heart into it, because it won't be there. I hope the friendship that we have made perseveres, but if not, I'm glad I met you.

And that's it. If your curious about these people IM me one on one. I might answer your questions. Wow wasn't this stuff really corny? I think so too.

Life... boring...

Since track ended, I've been hanging around school a lot more, just because it feels weird leaving for home so early. I think I should maybe stop that; I can't afford to waste time right now, with finals coming up so soon and everything. Finals coming up soon,.. doing nothing for them, again. I'll muddle thought somehow.
Life really sucks right now.. especially the one that pertains to love. Geez. Love is such a weird emotion. It comes up when its not wanted and then comes back when your other isn't with you. At least for me. I think I'll give up on asking her out.. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't make a good boyfriend. bleh.
I wen't on a blogthings rampage. total of four different blogthings in like 15 minutes. weird, no?
