SLO

Wow, I woke up thinking it was raining and I was right. I read the twitter and facebook updates and I couldn't believe my eyes. Summer is over.

Today I'm in SLO, I finally moved into the house in Los Osos. I had dinner with the owner of the house. It was a good welcome, however coming back wasn't so good. Evelyn (The owner of the house) had told me that her husband's sister took over my room, which had most of my stuff that I had dropped off there before I went back home. I was bit butt hurt about me getting the small room in this big house, it just sucks that I was really looking forward to the big room.

As I was unpacking, I realized that the connections to my desktop was missing. The keyboard and mouse...all gone. I didn't remember where I put when I packed since I didn't have 2 days of sleep after finals. I asked the family that moved into my room and also Evelyn as well but they didn't see anything. I had to call my mom up that if there was a box with all my computer stuff in there, and she said she's sure that we left it in this house before we went home to Sacramento. It has been irking me all night that's it's not here anymore and that I can't even set up my own computer in my own little room. It's a bummer right now...but I'm just hoping to find it.

Today, I'm hanging out with my neighbor, my ate Jenjen LOL. We're supposed to have ice cream later and then go to Modern?? Not sure if I'm doing it yet..I got my work schedule going on. Oh man...I gotta enjoy this week before the madness starts. But first, I gotta unpack! Bah!

FYI: I've changed.

And I have no shame in admitting this.

What's really there to look forward to?

It's that time again. Today, I feel like I should get my life back on track despite the summer fun and brain dead occurrences.

It'll be my 3rd year in college, and I feel like there's really nothing to look forward to, since there has been a lot of changes. I mean, really I can't blame them, but it happens for a reason. I know I feel confident for myself, but the people around me that I once thought they would be with me until my college career is a doubt according to all these circumstances that have been happening. I know I'm kinda being vague right now, but I really don't want to get too deep since this is personal information.

I think the truth is that I'm excited for myself, but not for other people. I'm glad that I had this summer to feel my independence - away from friends and roommates that whom I used to live with. I feel that I had my private space and I had no one to worry about. I felt comfortable that way, this summer.

But whatever, what is there to look forward to. Friends, events, people??...No. The answer to that, ladies and gentlemen, is my future.

Many changes and more to come

I realize that there are many different things that I can't change. But the thing that keeps going is myself.

What I'm saying is, is that I know for a fact I can change myself. And really, I shouldn't feel guilty for doing it.

I'm not sure if I'm ready to go back yet. But when I do come back, just know that I'm ready. I'm not going to make the same mistakes again. Bet on it.

Summer babbyyyy

So far summer has been great. But I think I should rewind on what has been happening lately.

So after my finals, I was tired off my ass since I pulled an "all-nighter" in the UU with Jeff, Karina, and Dawn. Crazy shit, I was wired for my physics final. Anyway, after coming home from Patrick's birthday party, I just decided to pack around 5 am since there was no way that I was going to finish in the morning when I wake up. So I decided to do another all nighter and I wasn't at my best that day. I accidently left my ream of paper and other stuff in one of the drawers, but luckily David was there to grab it before he left.

We went to go see the house where I was going to live next year and it seems hella tight. I'll be living with my family friends in Los Osos. It's a drive to commute, but I think it's well worth it considering the rent is a good pay. I'm going to have my car next year too!!

Anyway, now that I'm home, got my grades. Straight B's again, and I stayed static. Not my best, but I gave my best that quarter considering it was also an emotional quarter for me. I'm hoping that since I'm away from distractions I'll do MUCH better my junior year. My new goal is to get a co-op or internship for myself, so I really have to do well.

I also started summer school. Oh man by the time I went into class, I didn't know this speech was supposed to be a formal speech about myself! So I hella winged it at the spot since I was the last one. There are hella old people in my class. It's cool because everyone is hella chill and everyone has their own character so theres always something to laugh about.

I also have been hanging out with my friends. Went shopping, eat and eat and eat as always. Haha.

Then saw my Family yesterday. We were playing four square in the garage in the hot heat (wtf). Then we were just chillin from there.

Today, we're going to a rib off. I'm not sure what it exactly is but we go around a neighborhood and we eat people's ribs and tell them how we like it. It's almost an all you can eat because I'm suspecting there's going to be hella BBQers there.

Gahhhhhhh summer is so great. Love it! Random blog with random thoughts. Oh well :]

Thursday, April 23, 2009

It's what I predicted. Don't care anymore. Time to move on with my life and be happy without it.

Where has my life been?

So this past week, I just had PCN from 5 pm - 11 pm. Oh man, I can tell you this was stress fun. But to get straight to the point on what's irking me right now, is that I'm academically unmotivated. Like as of right now, I feel out of place because I just got out of "vacation" and so it seems. It kinda sucks because I have two midterms this week and I have to get my ass back on it. So I think I'm just going to hit the library from now and see wassup cause I need to get back into school mode quick. I played around too much the first 3 weeks and it's almost coming down to half of the quarter almost being done.

As of right now, a lot of changes are being dealt right now with me. I'm trying to stay at my best, and it's truly working. I just need to get back into reality and face the challenges that I'm about to face soon. Bring it on, school.

The Road to Recovery

As days go on, you think it's getting better,
but for me it isn't.
I'm keeping this smile, cause without you in my life constantly
just honestly feels much better.

I guess it's time for me to move on and find me something new.
And I'll tell you the truth, I ain't happy with the things I have right now.
But looking forward to new changes makes me feel much better.
It's what keeps me smile; that real smile you see everyday...
And it's a shame that it isn't you that makes me smile as much anymore.

Your life. My life. I'll keep mine. and I'll let you live yours.

Just let me live mine.

Sunday, April 5, 2009

I need to clutch. Start focusing on school and just do it.

No more "vacation" mind set. I have to realize that I am in school-mode.

That is all.

The Kickoff

I can't feel this way anymore. No more being careless and stoic. I need more positive energy to keep me moving and it agitates me that I feel lazy and chill especially when I just came back from Spring Break.

Like I mentioned earlier in my past blog, I'm overcoming a lot of changes and I'm sick of tired of feeling this way. I'm tired of shielding my emotions towards people and I miss the real me.

All I can do is that I can stay optimistic for the mean time and keep truckin' for this spring quarter. Yeah I have less units this time, but I can't stay comfortable. I have a lot of extracurricular activities as well as other commitments that I'm planning to make to keep myself busy this quarter. I can't let my emotions take over this time, and I realized that it was a regret that I made my winter quarter. I knew I could do SO much better if I didn't focus on personal problems. I should just let my passion drive this quarter, because I know I'll attain true happiness when it'll show in the future. I have the fire inside of me and so let it be.

Can't let shit get to me. Never. Cause I know I'm stronger than that. I'm Edward, and I don't let shit get to me.

I need to step up at this point and be a man. Do what it takes to survive and succeed because this is what I'm feeling for. This passion to do well in school which is for my future is on fire and I want to keep it that way. Nothing is going to stop me, nothing.... I'll do whatever it takes to reach my dreams. And someday, I will attain them. No one will ever stop me. I'll keep going. Just watch me.

Bringing some things different to the table

Oh man, today felt so tiring. I'm still tired after taking a nap! haha!

So there are things I'm bringing back differently this quarter; not so much of academics but things that have to do outside academics. I think last quarter I spent so much time on academics, that I literally went crazy. I have to admit that I didn't really balance myself out to do other things. Stress was taking its toll and I realized that over spring break I need to do other stuff other than academia life.

Today, I worked out at the gym with Aaron. I'm glad I found a person that has the same strength level as me. Oh man after working out, I already feel my body being sore. This whole day, I think that's what's really making me tired...my body.

After that, went to recycle some stuff and cleaned the apartment a bit. Made like 20 bucks off of plastic bottles. Then went to the bank to deposit money.

Kuya Ian called and we went to go get Frozen Yogurt and yogurt creations. Then went window shopping, hahaha. Too bad we didn't find anything cause there's not much selection in SLO. It hella sucks.

OH and random, but I got unlimited texting! Hella sick tho! I've been going crazy with texting ever since I got it lololol.

Then I'm here...trying to think what to do..

I think these changes are making me a bit uncomfortable, but I'm hoping to adjust soon. It's hard to stay positive when I'm at this phase, but what can I do? I'm helpless. I'm trying to change for the better and myself. I hope it turns out well...

Good Morning World; it's currently 7:11 AM

I'm currently eating a croissant and chocolate milk. What else is good in the morning though?

You're probably wondering why the hell I'm up this early. Well I slept early last night for the first time in years, to wake up for my mother's work. I kinda don't wanna say it on here to jinx on what's going to happen (don't worry it's a good thing), but I'll tell you if everything works out.

Anyway, today I have a dentist appointment at 12 PM. I'm hoping I don't get cavaties..Last time I didn't and I hope I don't have them again.

Hmm I plan to memorize my lines today for PCN and work on my costume. I bought materials last night and it was a challenge for me to buy it myself. Had to call Mike and Ryan for input since the spray paint didn't work on brown cardboard. It just looked like it was wet wtf. I just bought gold kid paint instead.

I also have to start packing for Frisco. I have to decide when to leave and stuff...Bah

Probably going to get pho today after the dentist since I have the car the whole day. Haha!

Edit://

OH and I got my grades last night. At first I wasn't too happy on what I got, but took the time and think about all the stress and tears I had to go through to get these grades. Although these are the grades that I wasn't shooting for, I think it's reasonable enough to deserve these grades. And if you guys wanted to know what I got, let's just say I managed my 3.0 for the quarter. I still think that isn't good enough, and that is why ladies and gentlemen, there is spring quarter to improve again!

Have a good day.

Monday, baby.

Oh man, I am HELLA full. What the hell did I eat today?!?!

First, got called by the best friend saying we were gunna eat Mongolian BBQ by Laguna with the rest of the brobros. Hahaha love these guys.. They taught me how to smash the frozen meat to the bottom so we can fill hella stuff on top. But ended up not finishing our meals, cause we got too much for one bowl. Then we had lollicup, even though I was still full.

Then went to go Sheldon High..Damn haven't been to high school for a long time. Walking campus made me indifferent somehow. Like I expected how my high school is supposed to be the way it is. Youngins' that try to dress to impress..Lately they've been "hype-beasting" and it's hella weird. Anyway, I tried looking for my Algebra I teacher, but I found that he isn't teaching at Sheldon anymore. Some cranky teacher told me he teaches at Johnson now. I was shocked a bit, but had to go visit my AVID 12 teacher. Luckily I ran into her while going to her classroom. Caught up a bit, but she seemed stressed and in a hurry. (I guess our lives can be like that sometimes when we need to get things done). And lastly, I visited my chemistry teacher, Ms. Laurison. Greatest AP chemistry teacher you'll ever meet. Just caught up on high school politics and what's been happenin' since I left.

After that, I just chilled at Ben's house until I went home. Played Brawl..sucked really bad cause I haven't been playing it, but whatever.

Then went home to find out we were having MIKUNI'S! But first, we were supposed to get my new phone from Boost, but saw that there were crappy ass phones for it. I think we're just going to keep the AT&T phone and just get me unlimited texting (shoot I'm fine with that). Anyway, onto Mikuni's just had hella sushi...I requested a platter that was like $65...God I love being spoiled. Kick ass Sushi, I'm tellin' you.

After that I was feelin' full...decided to hit up Ben's pad again to chill. Couldn't get gas alone because theres hella bums at night..or where I live..I can't stand them sometimes :/

Then went to Safeway to grab some sweets. Damn, dood talk about sugar overdose. I got me some Reece's pieces and eaaster egg chocolate cookies. Ended up baking it and eating it with 2% milk tho!! Oh man...then playing Mario Kart Wii. What good combination can beat that on a Monday night.

But yeah...Just made more plans for this week and it looks like I'm busy until Saturday night (when I get back).

Tomorrow, I start on PCN stuff. Mow the lawn. See the father. Probably see dad's side too.
Wednesday -> Mom's work, dentist appointment, and at night time, prolly sleep at the cousin's house.
Thursday-Friday -> yay areaaaaaaaaa and San Rafael. yee!
Saturday -> goin' back to SLO

Sunday, March 22, 2009

Yes

So today, for some reason I woke up hella early..don't even know why but I was hella cravin' pancakes and orange juice. Two things I don't regularly like! Hahaha, but I had a weird ass breakfast. Mom didn't have that much stock, so I had chicken nuggets and rice (go figure).

Then got ready for my nephew's 1st birthday. I have to say that I'm hella HAPPY that I got to see my whole family again. I love updating them with new information and how I'm doing.

I got to see my favorite cousin, and we're actually going to Benedicts tomorrow for breakfast! I love her to death; she knows how to spoil me like no other haha.

Let's see, I finally got to hold my baby. Felt relaxing because I've been wanting to do this since winter break.

Oh man, I really have to mention that I miss driving! I missed driving so much because it makes me feel responsible and authorative..like I'm in control. I love it; I dunno why haha. Did I mention it's a stress reliever for me, because it makes me think of other things other than BS.

Then I watched Watchmen with Larry. I would have to admit that movie is hella different than your typical superhero movie. Although it was long, I thought it was good and worth 10 dollars (can't believe they bumped tickets to 10 dollars..where has this economy gone to?)

After Larry's just chilled at his house. I love catchin' up. Can't wait to catch up with the other guys when they get back.

Good night, forreal tho.

I'm back in the NineWunSickness

Oh man, I am so glad that I'm home. 5 hour drive with my high school friend Matt, I have to admit was fast. Caught up with the man, and I'm glad we have CPE 315 together next quarter.

As I got home, I just got reminiscent about everything at home. I truly miss everything here and I'm hoping I get to do everything I want before I go back to school.

There's a lot to reflect about for next quarter, but I'm going to leave it for the next blog..

Can't type anymore..accidently cut my middle finger while washing dishes D:

And it's all downhill from here.

This whole week has been a crazy ride for me. Tomorrow (or shall I say today) is already Thursday and I feel like I haven't gotten that much of studying. I promised myself that I would start studying on Monday, but it didn't work out so well since my classes kept giving homework and such. I finally got that out of the way on Tuesday, and that's when I started studying for finals. I forgot how hectic it was to organize everything especially when you gotta remember most of the things.

Right now my most dreaded subject is Physics and I'm at a grade where I don't want to be. I've been to office hours, talked to my professor and he said I could get into the range where I want to be, but I just have to do well on the final. I spent like an hour today in office hours, which was good. Got my information straight, but I still gotta worry about everything else. This class has a lot of content! True story.

As for all of my classes, it's the same deal...well except for Psychology. Psychology is just a midterm..not so much of a cumulative test..Which is good so I don't have to study all that old stuff again.

Tomorrow again, is office hours with the math professor and lab physics professor. I still got to straighten things up. I haven't stated this yet, but my finals are on Monday and Tuesday. Seems like a drag, but all this studying has to be done.

Hmm...I hope everything will fall into place.

What must be done, has to be done...

Good luck to all of you.

"We are all on separate paths. We may have others on our path with us from time to time, but we journey as individuals."

This quote made my night. It makes me appreciate my independence as a person. And it shows that I'm not really dependent on anyone.


Monday, March 2, 2009

These changes man..They never stop...

That's all I gotta say.

Sunday, March 1, 2009

Everyone is out while I'm in the only one in...

And it feels good a bit.

Everyone (roomies & 420) else is partying, while I'm staying home?? It's not that I don't want to go, but instead I was hanging out with other people and it felt good. Taking a break from the regular everyday people feels good. No?

Anyway, today's March 1st and I'm not surprised. Life is going really fast and I am bit excited on what's going to happen in the future. One thing I'm really looking forward to is going home! It's been way too long and I think I need a change of scenary. Somewhere away from SLO for a while. A place where I can feel FAMILY and LOVE. Those are two things I also miss when I'm away here in SLO.

Hmm 2 more weeks of classes and I think I need to follow up my classes. I should really make goals and see where I can improve myself before I finalize my grades. I made serious goals this quarter and I think I should continue them.

Random blog, but just thoughts on my mind right now. :]

Monday, February 23, 2009

Life is unfair..

So then I deal with it.

I hate it. Whenever my mom asks me what's new, I tell her about Study abroad. She totally discourages it, and it irritates me that I can't have my full freedom yet. Yeah I don't have the exact money, but I can compensate it for later. It sucks because the two main reasons she always says is that 1) The economy sucks and I don't completely understand. 2) Because my friend Ryan is going, so I want to go to.

And everytime we talk about this we end up arguing and then leaving it off again. She's friendly about it one day and then really mad about it the next.

Sometimes I hate being where I'm at right now (status wise). Time can be slow, yet we always think its fast.

She actually wants me to stay home over the summer and just take summer school classes and work. I'm not too happy of this, but if this is the last resort then I'll have to. -_-

I need a break from school.

Saturday, February 21, 2009

And then there was 3...

So I've been thinking about what really matters to me most when I'm at college. I have ranked 3 of them and I'm hoping I made the right priorities.

1) Health
2) Education
3) Family/Friends

Hmm, what do you think?

I miss the way how things used to be..

Honestly, I haven't felt this way since high school. I never thought this would come to it, especially when it reached rock bottom last week. I couldn't really concentrate on my studies (mind you I had 2 midterms and a quiz).

Somehow I wish I can get out of this situation, but the only way how is to slowly fade away from people. I have no time to dwell. I have to push myself forward to bigger and better things. I hate it when I'm in circles and there's no way out. I'm praying to God that hopefully soon enough, things will fall into place and everything will just be the way it is.

I'm sick of tired and complaining. But how do I stop when factors arise especially when the situation has no conclusion.

I need out.

Friday, February 6, 2009

Stuck, and it feels like there's no way out.

I will stop dwelling. I must move on.
