Hap Hap Happy New Year!
Beer before liquor, never been sicker!
Liquor before beer, you're in the clear!
New Year's eve was a lot of fun. I mean... I mingled, I made friendly with my ex, and I outdrank all the other asians. Par-tay, right? Yeah. Until someone threw up in my cup.
Then I saw Shaun vomit all over himself... and the table.. which dripped onto the floor. Poor guy.
So I'm going back to school tomorrow. I'm very excited... that's a doozy. Who gets excited to go back to school? Me Me Me!

Tabula Rasa
It seems that the next year always rolls in too quick. I'm sure most people feel like they should have accomplished more, should have fixed everything up since last year.
I feel like I should tie up all my loose ends and make everything right. And at the same time, I think that tomorrow is just another day.
I have no real resolutions except that I'd like to eat better and exercise more (which is what everyone says but hardly does)... and be: more open-minded, more relaxed, a better student, and more responsible.
Thanks to these two friends for cheering me up and being so sweet. I'll be celebrating a great year with them tonight. We'll be clinking our plastic cups to many more great years.
And the one on the right is just a leftover from our learning session at the new library. Such graphic illustrations! It's from the author of The Joy of Sex!
All I know is, no matter what's happening, everything is turning out the way it was meant to be. No matter what, I'll be okay. We'll all be okay. With that in mind, happy new year! Have a fun and safe night, everyone!

nothing good comes easily
norah jones: don't know why
i'm not sure what i feel like. but i don't want anything to get to me. and i just want everything to fade away. i'm perfectly fine with being civil and friendly.
but this boy i used to like is being particularly hostile.
it vexes me that he thinks he knows me so well. it bothers me that he acts this way. it makes me cry when he makes me feel bad. and he's done that a lot.
someone you love shouldn't make you feel like shit all the time.
calm.
it's hard to love someone when they live 400 miles away doing god knows what and all you get is a phone call every once in a while and you get to see them on holidays and a couple weekends.
i decided this was the best. i'm doing what i want for me. so don't put your shit on me for that just because you're bitter. i don't want to hate you.
and to think, yesterday i was wondering if somehow, some way you came back into my life under different circumstances, maybe we'd be together again. and then i'd know that we were meant to be.

Mondays are good days.
He told his parents he was going to Disneyland. He came here instead. He woke me up with a phone call telling me he was on his way. So I scrambled around trying to fix myself up.
The doorbell rang.
And we were off. We lunched with Teerie and Armand at Thai House. And, of all things, we went to the new library to look up... fun things! It was fun until Armand was bleeding rather profusely for just lounging in a room full of books. So we went to Target.
Oh Target.
He can play the piano better than I can. He remembers a lot of songs better than I can. It was dark and we drove to Citywalk. I'm not a fan of Citywalk. But I do like good times. We saw The Lion King. I am a fan of IMAX and Disney. It was rather nice.
I think that... I can't stop thinking of him and I like him a lot.

"That's just how it worked out."
It's coincidence. It's not that I replaced anyone.
I spent the Sunday in the LBC. Driving there seems to take forever. Getting home is like clicking my heels thrice and singing along to a good cd. Speaking of driving there... saw another dead dog today. It was a big german shepherd on the side on the 5. No more dead animal stories. I've had enough after the possum.
Meet Teejay, also known as Delfin Ramon Miguel Timtiman Jaranilla IV. He calls me princess and sings Justin Timberlake songs. He plays Dashboard on the guitar and took psychology with me last quarter. He lives in my hall at school. He's silly. He's a really nice boy.
