First of all, the hot air balloon ride was dope!!!! First i was kinda scared, well only for the first 5 mins. Okay today i finally called in sick and took the day off. I can't take the stress anymore, i needed a break. For the past few months, i've tried so hard to keep myself busy, and I finally did it... But now i feel like i have too much weight on my shoulders... i know i shouldn't be complaining, because it was my decision, but heck... running errands EVERY FREAKING DAY, working 5 days a week, going to summer school 5 days a week at 8 in the morning... and there's a lot more to it than this, but i dont wanna talk about it, it's kinda personal (no there's no boys involved, no more boy dramas for me)...... As of this moment, i just wanna go back to being a kid again with no responsibilities what so ever... *sigh*

Ryan you're always saying "betty you're life is so cool..." But you have no idea what i go through everyday, the stress and the pressure and.... okay i'll shut up now...

ANYWAYS, i saw SIGNS today with mimi, helen, rob and his cousin. It was a good movie, i had to hold on to helen the whole time... hehe. Never had a chance to say this... bobby thank you for being such a good friend to me, and ALWAYS being there for me, i know i can always count on you, oh yea and you will always be my entertainment... hahaha. of course i love helen and mimi also, they know that already, i dont have to tell them, we're sisters = family. muah!

Time to go to sleep, gotta go to class tomorrow... i know i need to update this thing more often... but i'd rather sleep or eat... =)

i've been living at helen's house for the past few days... And lately i've been busy with school, work and all those family dinners, i dont have time to do anything... but it'll be over soon, cuz my relatives are leaving next week.

Thank you bob, for bring me that cheese burger from in & out... you're the best... =) Dont stress everything will be fine...

went to my family dinner tonight, mimi actually showed up. Dude me and mimi killed the chickens... it was sooooo good! we ate a lot of course. played around with my lil cousins (there were so many of them...) we had fun!
after dinner me and mimi went to the lambda house, dang that house is nice! patrick and them just moved in. me and patrick both have the same bed from ikea.. coo huh! We played pingpong.... that was the workout of my day

time to update... I've been very busy this week. too much school and work. I think i need a break from all this. Well i didnt go out this whole week, cuz i was just too tired, and im trying to spend all my time resting. But that's kinda hard to do when we have guests in the house. My aunt and cousins are here from Japan, and they're staying at our place, IN MY ROOM! so i've been sleeping in the living room for the past week... lack of sleep... not good.
im still dont know what im going to do tonight, maybe hang out with mimi and patrick or bob, who knows... Well im planning to go up to irvine and LA on tuesday of next week. (irvine to visit james, LA to eat cafe food) Since that's my day off, i need to use it wisely... =)
okay people i gtg bye bye... till next time

i had a good day today, first i went to my philosophy class, we had an interesting discussion regarding plato. After my 4 hour class, i went up to san clemente for the company beach party. it was awesome!!! there was A LOT of food... we played beach valleyball for a long time, but our team lost, oh well we had fun and plus i got a nice tan out of it... me happy =) Also i met a lot of people, we all work for the same company but at different locations... they were super friendly! Went into the water for a lil bit... the water is actually blue there... we were there from 2 till sun down... good thing i didnt have to drive, cuz i was really tired.... =)

I'm currently in a very good mood, i dont know why... i finally realized that "hey my life isn't as bad as i thought it was" I've got friends and family that care about me, people i can count on... you guys know who you are. I've got a super cool job that im happy with, while getting my education. I dont have to stress about boy problems, cuz me dont want a boyfriend. It's more like i dont need a boyfriend, im a big girl now, i can take care of myself. And i also learned how to deal with guys. When someone approaches me with the intention of hooking up with me, i turn them down. YES i know i sound like a freaking arrogant biatch... and NO i dont think im too good for them, it's simply because i dont wanna deal with guys anymore, (and of course there are other reasons). I dont want to date because i think it's a waste of time, i'd rather persue a serious relationship, but i dont think im going to have another boyfriend for a long time. ANYWAYS, im pretty much satisfied with my life right now, so no more complaints about how much life sucks. and most of all, i will cherish what i have.

good night everyone

thank you toan and henry...=)

on saturday i went to the Miss Philippines Pagent held at the California Center of Art in escondido. I went with rob, cuz his god sister is one of the competitors... damn she's so pretty. She won 4 out of the 6 individual awards, and was second runner up for miss philippines. it was a fantastic experience (my first time attending a beauty pagent). THANX BOB for taking me. Other than that, i didnt really do anything for the weekend, just chilled with friends.

I finally solved the problem between me and vicent, i kinda feel bad for what i did though, well like i said, truth hurts.

I have a lot of things on my to-do list today,
1. first day of summer class.....(done)
2. buy books.....(done) $100 dang
3. go to the well's fargo to deposit money for bob.....(done)
4. go to the dry cleaners.....(done)
5. go to washington mutual to make my first payment for my car! and to bring food to patrick, cheese burger combo from in and out
6. go to toan's house, so he can work on my car
7. go to target, i need to buy paper and notebooks for school, oh yea and sun block
8. go work out
9. finish my reading assignment

I planned to go up to irvine tomorrow to visit ryan, but i just found out that he's busy. so instead im gonna go up to san clemente for a company beach party, good thing i dont have to drive, cuz albert's driving.

For the next couple of months, im not gonna update this blog or go online as much, because i just have too much to do. 4 hrs of summer classes every single day of the week, and currently im working full time. So if u really wanna know what im doing, it doesn't hurt to call right? okay take care everyone ... =)

update for the past week:
-- 4th of july was okay, enjoyed my day off. umm hung out with helen, of course she's my baby (well her bf's not here). we had a girl's night out... it was cool. we all packed into my car and went to the beach and saw fire works. although there were a lot of drama going on... i dont wanna talk about it, cuz it's better if i stay out of this... =) After fireworks i had dinner at applebees with ry ry, i treated him out this time...
-- Friday, i had to work at 8:30 in the morning... grrr that was a pain in the a$$!!! went to vons and bought a lot of food!!! me love food!!! i bought pasta, but i forgot the sauce... duh stupid betty... aiya!!! Had dinner with rob at gold leaf and just chilled at tea station. Saw ryan, can and vu... we hung out at tea station's parking lot for a pretty long time, but we had fun though, like i said... those guys are HILARIOUS!!!
-- Saturday, went to work at 8:30 again!!!! Had dinner at jasmine, cuz it was Kevin's birthday. saw all of my ex-co-works... we had super nice service, which is kinda hard to believe, well it's a chinese restaurant, and considering that we're teenagers. Went up to LA with them after dinner, it wasnt all that exciting, i didnt really wanna go, but it was his b-day.
-- Today, once again went to work at 8:30... this is hell... But on a happier note, i won a $50 gift certificate for Claim Jumper and another $50 certificate for Glen Ivy Hot Spring Spa, from the ticket drawing at work!!!!! (other people had to work hard for their tickets, but i didnt...hehe) YEAAAAAA... a full body massage and a nice dinner afterwards... dang this sounds like heaven... =) Everything was okay at work until this old man showed up... he was screaming in my face, because there was a miss-rep... he was rude and crazy... so i brought the managers over, and they showed him what "manner" means. Came home from work, took a nap... like always. Picked up my dry cleanings from rob. I was really grumpy and sorta pissed off (due to a 8 hr shift). But thanx to rob, i feel much better now. When ever im down, he would always be there to make me laugh, by acting retarded and not to mention, singing ALL the time... well after all his stupid jokes work... =) thanx bob... but "you're horrible!!!!" Bob is a nice guy, ladies if you are interested, i think he's taking applications, oh wait... he only has one girl on his mind ==> sunshine!!!!!!
-- Tomorrow is my day off... yea!!! that means 12+ hrs of sleep for me... umm let's see i have to pay my bills, go to the post office and pick up the certified letter... (who would send me a certified letter????) Ohh yea... I MISS U HELEN!!!!!! she's in san jose right now, visiting her boyfriend... have fun u two... and be safe... =)
-- okay time to turn on the tv

Had dinner at Gold leaf with mimi last night, cuz our uncle just bought that restaurant, and we had a lil celebration...just within the family.

Ryan treated me out to friday's last night, that was nice of him. Thanx ry! we talked, mainly about his life, it was interesting, but most of all it made me realize a lot about him. ryan is still the same ol' ryan... that's what makes him special.
I'm going bowling again tomorrow... with everyone at work. We have 7 different teams, and im on the GM's team... hehe I know im not a good bowler, but hey it's all about bonding with co-workers, cuz all of them are nice and friendly...

Tonight im gonna take my mom out to dinner, well my dad is in LA, so just me and my mom... we'll have lots of fun... As for now, im gonna clean up the corolla, cuz my dad's gonna take it over on monday. After that... NAP time!!!!!!
