sometimes i just need to AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH - scream. life has taken such a toll on me, i want to quit. even though MC is over, i still have school, work, mock trial, and youth court. quite frankly, i want to quit mock trial right now,but whatever. ahh in the midst of it all, i need to put aside time for family and what not. and ap literature is kicking my ass like crazy, but i am enjoying the book we are reading right now (that doesn't happen too often). but i've been feeling so OVERSTRESSED about everything. it's amazing that i haven't had a breakdown yet. i swear to freaking mormon's that i will probably get fired from my job for taking so maybe days off for mock trial. and i want to kick mock trial in the balls right now.

overall
i must say, this has been an amazing week.
to start, school was only two days long. it's always great when you have absolutely no work to do and everyone has holiday thoughts on their mind.
tuesday, i tuned into FM's release party for their new album ANIMAL. may i say, it was freaking AMAZING. i love my fm boys, and even though they couldn't see me, i threw up my three fingers and sang every song that wasn't new and i knew the words too.
wednesday was a early work day. i had no school and it felt weird to be going to work at 730 instead of four. but i must say, early shifts roll by a lot faster than closing shifts. i wish i could work early more often if i didn't have school. after work, it was another mini vsa moment at zummm's house. we had a thanksgiving dinner with a few close friends and spent the night laughing at SNL's 'single ladies' and watching usher rip off his shirt on tv. afterwards, it was off to henry's house to cook thanksgiving dinner.
on thursday, i woke up early from a short 6 hour sleep and got ready to head to henry's house again to finish up and to clean up his house. truth be told, i like to cook but i hate cleaning. however, at 5, everyone arrived and before we ate my sister and henry had a big announcement. they were engaged! of course, i knew a week prior by default but it was awesome to see my family and his family's reactions. but moms cried :].
friday was my birthday! yay mee. i woke up a late, a well deserved sleep. my mother told us to meet her at work and we would spend the day for my birthday. so we went to macy's and it wasn't as crowded as it probably was eariler in the morning. but we copped some nice swag (haha) and then headed in our opposite ways. i didn't do much on the actual day of my birthday. watched transporter 3 and then did some light shopping before heading to jenny's house to play a rousing game of mario kart.
saturday, i spent it with kimber and her family. we went to hmong new year and i found kingston! i must say, walking around, it reminded me of hoi cho and i wished it could be that big. best phrase of the day "excuse me, would you like to play ball with us?" haha. on top of that PROTOJ SANG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME ON THE MIKE IN FRONT OF EVERYONE. i was cheesing like a crazy fangirl. annnd we saw iron man roaming around :]. then we went back to kimber's house to figure out what we were going to do.
we ended up going to winter formal, which was a tad bit waste of money, but funny at the same time? GET SOME. haha too bad i got molested on the dance floor by random guys and a lot of people stepped on my foot. after, we went to her cousin's house to eat or jack in the box and watch some scary hmong movie. "HOLY SHIT, SHE LOOKS LIKE A SMURF" i must say, i was quite scared even though i didn't understand anything. then i headed home.
now here i am.
this is the first time i've had a GOOD WEEK and nothing bad happened throughout the course of my week. i was deeply and truly happy :D

in light of obama becoming our president elect, i decided to look up some cartoons. i now also understand why people want newspapers so badly.
in case you haven't noticed, i really like the ones with obama and mlk.
and the last one was just for fun.
hahah, go hillary??

out with the old...
...and in with the new president.how does it feel to be apart of history in the making? to be a part of a time where change will happen instead of it being just a word thrown around? i am proud to say that i am a democrat american living in this day and age. even though i was not able to physically go and vote. i felt like i was a part of this whole thing. even though i wanted a firm hand in the picking of our next president, i am still happy with the outcome. barack obama, our new president. a man of change. the first african american president. one of the youngest. criticized for his lack of experience, he pulled through and made a difference. as i watched coverage of the election from 5pm until now, i couldn't help but to feel a sense of elation and swirls of emotion. and mccain's speech was great. i respect him and his attempts to calm down a rowdy crowd. i've never hated mccain. i respect him and i think he is a great man. but barack and his speech amazing. he's an eloquent speaker. and spoke words not only to encite the crowd, but to make them think. to let them - and us - know: YES WE CAN. because with things starting new we can make a change. we can fixx this world. we, this generation, are making a difference. we made the difference when we made the choice to vote. and the man we voted into office will lead us there. i fiath faith in obama and i have faith in this country.

activist?
i saw a bunch of people on sunrise holding up signs saying : "yes on 8" "adam and eve, not adam and steve" "honk for 8" etc. and even though there was a large sea of yellow signs, i saw one or two blues ones that said "no on 8" i commend those people. because it takes a lot to join a crowd of ignorant homophobes and go against everything they say.
i'm usually not one to care for propositions and aimless rules made by the people of california. but this one hits a strong nerve with me. the fact that people are against gay marriage is beyond me. i'm sorry that you cannot accept something that is different from your lifestyle, but news flash: not too long ago this great society we call america was against INTERRACIAL MARRIAGES and it was ILLEGAL. see how stupid that sounds now a days? we used to chastise interracial couples the same way we are chastising homosexual couples today. and your marriage with 2.5 kids and a puppy is not doing to mean anything different just because your next door neighbors - who happen to be gay - are married. NO it will not be taught in schools. NO it will not start a "gay epidemic" and NO gay people do not make gay babies. gay people can't even make heterosexual babies. the things you say against gay marriage are STUPID and IGNORANT and it belongs back in the 16th century.
when did we become a nation that was so INTOLERANT of others. we preach EQUALITY and FREEDOM but we deny people their NATURAL rights.
be smart
promote freedom and equality

vote NO on 8

intoxication
there's nothing i prefer more in this world
than a sprinkle of water
from those overburdened clouds
better than a shot of vodka
i am intoxicated by the rain
the pricks of my skin as it falls down
reminds me of times when i was truly happy
it has been nearly a year since i've last seen it
and its return - our reunion - was well worth the wait
--
if you couldn't tell, i really do love the rain
and yes, the smell of rain does intoxicate me
excuse the cheesy poem
but i found it necessary
btw, you should watch "you can vote however you like"
that video makes me happy
oh, and it's not because you are [insert race here]....
it's because you're STUPID

a well put off return
if you bothered to notice, i've been missing for a long time. the stress of school has seriously gotten to me. my senioritis is not as bad as i thought it would be. i'm actually pretty on top of things. i got a 4.0 last term. BITCH WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT. but the only thing that sucks is that for the nest couple of months i'm gonna be staying after school a lot more often and battling my work schedule. when i come home i just want an hour or two to rest, and when i actually do start my work, i stay up late nights to finish it. it's not that i have senioritis, it's that i have BAD TIME MANAGEMENT. and i am not afraid to admit it. with all school talk aside, life has been all right.
weeks come and go. and most of the time i can't tell the difference of one saturday from another. but, who really cares about all of that. because in the end my life really does consist of: school, work, mock trial, and youth court. chyeeah.
