Wake up, darling

I'm back .. but only for the moment. I'm not quite sure which blog I'm going to permanently keep because I've sort of "gotten close" to Blogger. But then again I don't think I will be able to keep updating both since this site is a bit overlooked and have somewhat become the underdog over Tumblr. Oh well, what can you do.


Nothing big has been happening. Atleast not on the surface.
I think everything that has been happening this Spring break takes place in my mind. Such a mothereffing introvert. I irritate myself sometimes.

I think I have a crush. And the "think" part is my way of saying "here-goes-nothing."

Check it if you have one.

I have somewhat been looking more into Tumblr for the past few days, not because I like it more than Blogger, but because it undeniably tickles one's fancy whether you deny it or not. I like blogging, it makes me feel better. But as much as I love expressing myself, I like browsing through thought-provoking, artsy, and humorous photos. They are irresistible. So I suppose that this will turn into a diary blog, also known as the "serious and personal entries." And Tumblr will gradually become my collection of wants, music, and inspirations.

"Ridin' the escalator to the somethin' that is greater"

RIP Nujabes

When I say that I am a die-hard fan of Nujabes, I do mean it. In fact, most of my blog posts, and music, have a bit of Nujabes influence in them. "Aruarian Dance," "Feathers," and "Reflection Eternal" are my top main favorites aside from his obviously good talent in lyrics and beats.

Direction

If you are into blogging, loves reading, have time in your hands, and can spare a bit of time to think, then go ahead and read. If not then I bet you won't finsih reading this. Sorry, I didn't expect it to be this long.


So it seems like this week has been a complete drag. And maybe the next.. and the next. I am waiting for something shocking because I absolutely hate that plateau when your daily life either seems to repeat itself, or it gets even more boring than the previous one. I am down to meet new people, and perhaps develop friendship with a few. As much as one says that they are done with the fake ones, you never really know which ones are actually fake and which ones are actually real, or maybe even one who transitioned from one to the other. That's why I choose not to prove myself to anyone who does not have the ability to tell the difference between the two. Because sooner or later, I will be misunderstood. But is it true that to be great is to be misunderstood? In some cases I do think so. But that's for someone who is as introspective as I am.

When I say that nothing is really going on with my life at the time, I really do mean it in the most literal way possible. It might sound negative, but that's just me being blunt. It's the truth and there is no point in sugarcoating things. I am not in touch with the world as much as I'd like to be, mostly because my phone is off at the moment, and it has been for quite some time. God knows when I'll get that back. But if that's so, then so be it.

Another Navy Recruiter came to my 5th period class today. I'm not sure if I'm into all that stuff, but I've always been open-minded with a lot of things. I want to know where I'm heading in about a year or two. There is always the safe and secure way of mediocracy, but is that going to give me justice? I have so many options in my head and I am known to take risks (even though I am incredibly indecisive). The two seem to contradict each other, but that's how my mind works. I never know what to do and I never know which decision is best, but once I make it, I have no regrets.

Do you ever imagine where and how your life will be after high school? I see two different women in me. One is in the city, living life as a working student, with the drive and motivation because she is surrounded by adventurous people who is just as crazy as she is. And the other one, the woman who lives a more delicate and conservative way of life with a trustworthy friend, living life by the beach to take things slow, perhaps having a potential romantic partner who gives you the butterflies. Or maybe it's neither one of those. Maybe it's a life that is completely different from what I imagine. Nobody ever really knows.

I think time seems to be moving a bit too slow at the moment. Year 2011 seems so far away. Even Summer seems so far away. I planned to get a tattoo this Spring, but I don't think that's going to happen this year because the AP test just came up. Besides that, I have prom to worry about. I can only imagine how next year is going to be. When Zooey comes back from LA, I want to go shopping with her again. Out of town. Because it seems to me like I think more clearly when I see new faces and new sceneries. And isn't it true, that shopping makes a girl feel so much better? We talk about these things whenever we're out shopping. Seeing two women walking together in trench coats and heels and us saying, "That's us in about 5 years." The fresh smell of coffee in the morning, going outside for a morning walk down the boulevard, having a job and coming home for another night out under the bright street lights. Well maybe that's just me. That is one of the main reasons why I think about all the different directions in life, all at once.

Soaring. Is this allowed?


I've mentioned this before: that Kid Cudi seems to fully satisfy the potheads who have good taste in music and sense of distinction with hip hop songs. He is, in fact, considered to be the most emotional rapper of the new millenium that if it wasn't for his notable "futuristic swag," no one would have thought he writes lyrics that usually involve a sort of eerie state of mind. But that's not a bad thing, if we're talking in sense of his skill as a lyricist and a recording artist. He speaks the truth. Everybody can relate once you strip down the idea of just "getting high." Because frankly, there are times when you just have to step outside and just not give a fuck.

Hysteric

Update on a few things.

Its really vague, the way things are going right now. I missed a whole day of school on Monday, and missed 1st and 2nd on Tuesday. For the first time in a long time, I actually didn't feel all that bad (although there was a hint of self disappointment). Rainy days make me lazy as hell.

I have two things I'm worried about: grades and prom. Holy MotherFather.

Laggin'


I like the skeleton top. I've always been interested in clothing that has a picture of a wolf, boombox, or skeletons. They just automatically catch my eye.

I have got to come back for this one specifiic leather jacket that I almost didn't let go of at the mall. I think I'm going to shop very soon.


I find this guy really attractive.

Those heels! I've just always been into solid color heels, plus the fact that red is one of my favorite colors.

They say people in your life are seasons,

And anything that happens is for a reason.

The gang

These are not all of the photos that were taken that night (nor do the pictures present all of the people I'm talking about), but they pretty much summarizes it all. I seriously missed them. Ashylyn, Jaytee, Arthur, John, and all the other friends whom I just met that night. Some downass guys. It felt like a reunion.

"Because it's worth it.."




So Valentines Day finally came. I would have to say that this has got to be the most interesting Valentines Day I have ever experienced. It wasn't the cutesy, over the top type of day (as most remember back in my freshmen year), but this one definitely involved more critical thinking. I don't think a mere stranger would get what I'm saying right now, but I'll just keep it at that.

We were pretty much all over the place, and probably spent the most time getting lost on the freeway, trying to figure out which exit to take. So then it turned out to be more of a race than actually trying to get to the place. We were all the way out in Vacaville until about 9 in the evening, then finally headed back to Benicia. I spent some quality time with my date and I was satisfied. I loved that night regardless of how complicated things seem to be going. Thanks date.

Help, I'm Alive


I've been putting this song on repeat lately. Her voice is quite amazing, and it sort of captures my thoughts late at night. I know that sounds a bit emotional, but maybe because it's February. Oh valentines, How.. cute.

How did you get one of your scars?

I was in motorcycle training in Hercules for a few months, then I tried a dirt bike on a paved road (residential area), which was a stupid move, so I lost control with my speed and my leg touched the spinning wheel right before I jumped off. Crazy moment of my life.

Shit, it's fucking February. Where is this leading to...

Wednesday, January 27, 2010

Dear January,

I always find myself just sitting here not doing what I'm supposed to be doing, yet knowing I'm better off doing so. I think my mindset has somewhat been reversed even though I have attempted to ease off on procastinating. This is not new, I'm sure a lot more people are doing the same as I am. Better yet the statement has been coined over and over again: "I know I'm not supposed to fuck up on homework. But then again how do you NOT fuck up." And also because Soulmate has slightly influenced me that grades aren't really based on how smart you are, but on how well you can handle the class.

There are two major events coming up, as of now. They're really supposed to be a fun breakthrough type of thing, but I didn't think it would be such a hassle. Or maybe I'm just over thinking things like I always do. It's weird in a way because most of the time it really seems like I have two different minds. I've gotten better and better at analyzing situations through different perspectives. I think people really need to consider it because that way, they would also be prepared if the same thing happened to them. I mean if you are too immature to approach the problem, then shit just gets in a never-ending cycle.

Soulmate makes me mad sometimes. No.. MOST of the time. But not exactly in a fall-off-the-face-of-the-earth kind of mad, it's just that he's my bestfriend who knows exactly how to irritate the shit out of me.

I highly dislike rainy days. I'm not hating on the winter season, but really though, I think Summer brings out the best in me. Cloudy and windy days usually just make me come off as a bitch, accidentally ignoring everyone, or not continuing conversation. If you really know me though, I am the farthest thing from a mean stuck up bitch. If anything, I secretly admire a lot of girls out there. And I really do mean it in the most genuine way possible. (But not in a homosexual kind of way, of course.)

However, I think I've come to realize that I am capable of being a straight up asshole. I mean, everybody has that, right? Sometimes I can be too blunt, which makes me sound cocky. Or sometimes being a little too provocative that I may seem a bit infamously conceited. I mean, real talk, I know how girls get a bad reputation. Because of too many bad assumptions, misinterpretations, and misunderstanding. I can't really blame them if I do come off that way. Cause what can you do? They will think what they will think and that is that.

I think this is a bit too long, but I'm making up for all the days I missed. Once I'm out of Bethel, I will go through this blog and see how much I've changed and the things I've gone through. Oh but one thing though -- fuck Bethel at the moment; shit gets old.



I really want to buy those crewnecks that Soulmate has been telling me about. I need to have another quality shopping, plus the heels I need for the next upcoming events. I don't even feel excited though.

The sun came out today. It looked as though it was actually Spring.. I miss it!

Valentines Day is coming soon (and so is that cute movie), but we'll get there when we get there. THIS is when the single ones think, "Oh shit, here they go again" to every couple they see that day. Fml hahah.

Physics is doin to much right now. I'm trippin balls over those damn quizzes.

My hair needs to stop stalling on me.

I miss kickin it with the OLR homies. I think I need to plan something out for us soon since I haven't been able to make it to the youth programs every friday. Those were fun! Ugh Im slackin. And so does my BFF Will who's been in Richmond and never showed up ever again. That is why I call you Long Lost now, you little slacker!

SOULMATE BRING YOUR DAMN PIERCING GUN NEXT TIME YOU COME DOWN HERE AGAIN. (Why don't you contribute to my tat savings as well. HAHA)

Li and James are coming in the room now and there's about to be a ruckus in here. Peace out cuties

French navy, my sailor mate

I just realized, so much has happened during the past few weeks. I can't believe so many things reached the point where they are now. I haven't really been online that much, plus I've been worried about a lot of things. This is one of the reasons why I highly dislike this weather. It's timid.

I'm content for the most part. I think I just need better planning so that I don't stress myself out. Events are coming up too so I guess that's what's keeping me from just sulking all day with this gloomy atmosphere. I'm not even trying to sound emo though. And as for Zooey (haha you know who you are), YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. We need our L&A day again soon!

I can't make you love me if you don't.

School?

It's always that time just a few days before school starts again. It's always a downer, even though a part of me is looking forward to seeing everyone else.
It feels like there's really nothing there to look forward to because once things go back into motion, you'll just feel another circulation of nag nag and nag.
Hmm.. it's probably just because of the negativity around. But who knows what's in store for all of us?

This semester I NEED to buckle down. I'm probably not even going to have much time anymore, and definitely less time to communicate outside of school on a weekday since I really can't afford to slack. Typing this already makes me disappointed for some reason.. but I know it's for a couple of good reasons.

No resolutions at the moment. Just a new start.
