i think it's crazy how fast life has been passing by lately. i just finished my first year as a college student and didn't do all that bad. it'll be one year with john in less than a month and i'm pretty excited considering i didn't think we were going to last long at all. something i'm looking forward to is nicaragua on saturday, yet i'm terrified. i can't handle being away from john two weeks, but i'll have to live. and, i lost a close friend of mine which i got over quickly considering i knew it was going to happen.

anyway, life moves on.

i took this break slow. i like being home to spend time with my family, but i also like hanging out with my friends. i've hung out with amy, matia, franklin, alex, john, jacqui, mallissa, courtney, and the MOST random, alvaro lol. i had so many trips to deer valley just to get all of nony's transfer papers there and back that i kept sneaking in to the leadership room to hang out. i miss high school, it was good times, but i like college too. i do miss how things used to be though. i miss random adventures with franklin the most, in my opinion. or going to the city with amy and franklin, i mostly miss doing things with the both of them but we're all changing. amy is focusing on her social life, franklin's got work and school and danika, and i'm super focusing on school and hanging out with john and spending as much time with my family as possible. i'm ready to go back to school though and get my education cranked out so i can hurry up and graduate and get my career started.

i'm also working on a diet, my goal is to lose 20 pounds (for now) and so far i've lost four. we'll see how this goes.

NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS:
* fast food only once a month, twice if i'm desperate.
* i can only drink soda once a week or once every other week.
* portion my food lighter, i don't need all those fries at the DC!
* excercise everyday somehow.

i'm going to accomplish them.

i love being on break. i love just chillin at home with nothing to do so much more than going out, although, today seems to be an exception cuz i really feel like going out. i called amy & matia but they didn't answer and i'm sure franklin is working. i needa call robert so i can hang out with him before he goes back out into the army. i got my grades back for the semester and they aren't that bad, i just wish i knew what my math grade was!! other than that, i went to the city with boyfriend for our six months =) i'm so happy with him, i wouldn't have imagined that we would last this long. and then went to fentons with theee friends, and my biggest pet peeve is when people break a plan. i really wanted to go ice skating, but whatever, i'll just go with john since no one else wanted to go. or i'll just go with matia since she wanted to go. then went to fentons. chill. and i freakin miss the crap out of matia, just being around her puts me in the best mood cuz she always seems to crack me up no matter the situation. and i'm ready to go back to school and start new classes and have john there! =) yaaayy.

i went to bravo's pizza with boyfriend last night =) it was like a double date with my parents lol. it was cute. it also reminded me of an old time, about five years ago for my cousins birthday where we went to bravo's for her birthday dinner and he sat across from me and kicked me and we flirted the entire time. i love him. he's amazing.

i need to get my life back in line.

good things:
barack obama is our new president. it was announced last night at exactly 8:00 pm. i was in amy's dormroom when it was announced, not the place i wanted to be, but exciting nonetheless.
i think i'm doing pretty well in school. at least, as well as i could. it's not as stressful as i would have assumed, but the people in my classes make it really cool.
i'm finally sleeping better lol, i had this long phase where i couldn't sleep at all and was stressing myself out .
john is pretty much amazing.

bad things:
i feel like i'm losing my best friends.
i never use my phone anymore.
matia called me yesterday =) i swear i need her.
franklin feels like i'm not his friend anymore because i don't pick up my phone and call. college is a busy place franklin, just like you're even more busy than i am.
i need to do homework.
i want to go eat.
my back hurts.
prop 8 passed =(.

old story:

as a kid, i asked my grandma for pancakes. she told me there weren't any eggs, so i took it and walked away. i went back to her and asked her for some pancakes again, she told me there still weren't any eggs, so whatever, i walked away. after repeating that a couple times, i told her "no quiero huevos, quiero pancakes!" which was apparently cute.

tonight:

i go downstairs to go say goodnight to my grandma. i go into the pantry and see some pancake mix. i go up to her and tell her i want some pancakes tomorrow. she says okay so i was cool. then she says "no hay huevos!" and i said "no te creo" and my grandma started laughing. i caught it fast but it took her a minute and she started laughing. i went up to my parents to tell them the story and they were laughing hella hard. i have never seen my dad laugh so hard in my eighteen years of life. he even turned red.

i was cute =)

day 1777 on this thing. too bad i don't use it every day like i used to, then again there is no point.

anyway, today marks the 2 month mark with john. it's been a freaken obstacle course, no doubt. we went from being the happiest couple ever to not trusting each other then being okay again and then to freaking out when we're apart. nonetheless, we're happy most of the time, which is always good. i'm happy with him, extremely and i'm happy that he and i have at least made it to two months of being together after waiting for six years.

in other news, i just came back from FLA, now FLBA on saturday. huge crazy experience. i had a crazy familia and i didn't know how to handle it. i handled them as well as i could since i basically took on the facilitator role, but i was alright. i had my fun kids like karen and miguel that would always talk to me. then i had the psychos like gabriel and marcus. anyway, at the end of the week banquet, the FLBA board honored me with a scholarship of $500! i was crying since i was so excited. holy crap.

and so now i'm home, dreading but also looking forward to the day i move out of antioch and into san jose. only four more days to go and then i'm out of here...oh man.

first of all, it's my best friend in the entire world's birthday today =). i do love franklin, which is why he's my best friend in the entire world, which is why i would do anything for him, which is why he is dope. happy birthday best friend!

second of all, yesterday was one amaaaazing day. it was all smiles. amy, matia, franklin, and i all arrived finally to the pacifica beach. first, on the way there, franklin fooled us by saying he would be going to the club today, which made us all laugh because he wasn't being serious. anyway, we got to the beach, and john got there. =). i was quite excited and we had a chill time. we watched franklin make many attempts to skim board, many of times he succeeded, and also got tired near the end so we sort of just layed on each other. then we went to L&L bbq for some food at a time where i wasn't hungry. then jamba juice. then to the museum of modern art which john & i didn't enjoy too much, i guess cuz i was distracted and the art wasn't as fascinating as the deyoung museum, anyway, so we sat down. looked at some books of photography. then he got me all mad because he was going through my phone looking at who i text and what not and he's convinced i still care about lamont, but i don't, i mean as a friend yes but otherwise no. theeeeeen we went on the longest trip ever to twin peaks. where...=)...so. he takes us up to twin peaks and we get out the car and find a place to just chill. then all of a sudden, bust it baby plays in the background. first of all, he's been saying for weeks now that that song is for me, although it's dirty, but whatever, but he's always saying it's his song for me. then we're just staring at the view and he asked me to be his girlfriend. i had to make sure he was being serious because he has asked me plenty of times in the past, all of which could not be serious, so i asked him if he was sure. then he told me he loved me with all this heart and obviously we kissed plenty of times. and i'm so in love with him, it's ridiculous. anyway, it took me forever to say goodbye because it was me this time that had to leave. aaaaand oh man. i'm so happy. and he was planning on getting a firework shot from twin peaks too but that didn't work because we took too long at moma. but anyway, it's finally official as of june 19, aaaaand who knows how long we're actually gonna stay together. but for now, our parents don't know, because of his parents for once, but it's not gonna stay underwraps for long.
