Emmeline + Glasses
Emmeline just bought beautiful Prada glasses. Looooong overdue. She’s practically blind. The more I look at her in them, the more I love her. With insurance they ended up costing a whopping $300, but hey, a small price to pay for the gift of sight.
I’m awaiting a phone call from Madonna, from there I will head over to UCSD to see The Federation. Unless that’s lame then...

I opened up Mozilla Firefox to go to the school website to read on the 20’s and 30’s, but quickly got sidetracked. There was an MSN article on an exchange student from America that was largely neglected during his stay in Egypt for the school year. I read the three page article, analyzing both sides of the story. Apparently the student exchange program, AFS, discourages...
“Mmmm… I love cold water… it’s like liquid ice going down my...”
– “It is liquid ice, retard.” Anonymity to shield them from embarassment.
Kimchi
I went home. Ate kimchi, vienna sausages, and rice. Fell asleep. Woke up after the sun had already gone down.
You know what’s the most depressing thing? Waking up to a house drenched in darkness, making you extremely reluctant to get up and venture through it. It took a lot for me to go out and turn on the light. Dark makes me sad.
Ramblings of a Retard
Stacy, need I train you on typing etiquette?
So I’m currently in Bio, Kyle Granali beside me, blank sheet of paper before me. Kyle’s being a good student and working on his History response; I, on the other hand, am making use of the computer.
Last night Adam and Alberto left around 12:30AM. We worked straight from 8PM. Adam got a 49/50. Alberto got a 48/50. I got a 40. Wow. ...
I'm Daddy.
Edward Chin, Adam Ally, and Alberto Guzman are all coming to my house right now to do history notes. Yeah, be jealous.
My house might explode from overload of I.Q. points.
Edit; This was probably the most fun I’ve ever had doing homework. Bonding with my homies: Adam, Alberto and Edward. Yeeeeeee. So much brainpower!
WatchSpanish 5/6 Semester Project. Over a year ago. Slightly embarrasing. Strictly amateur. Hilarious. At least, it was to us.
Make a note: in the first scene of “She’s a Bad Mama Jama,” we asked Mariah to skip on the way out of the shot. That’s her, “skipping.” Sometimes I think she has a brain deficiency.
The end is my favorite part.
And for those who...
SATs
My Admissions Ticket won’t print, boooo. Ok, I guess I just won’t go to college.
Half A Moon
I’ve just arrived home, it’s 6:08AM. I dropped my Dad and my brother off for them to venture on their trek throughout Vietnam to put my grandpa (and his urn) officially to rest.
While I was at my grandpa’s I was watching everyone in a whirl of chaos, attempting to get everything done and all the luggage in the car before being significantly tardy. I heard, roughly, in...
“baby, you’re the hoisin to my sriracha”
– Mark, who apparently eats too much Pho
Espanol
Waves of people came up to me today saying, “Hey, I saw your spanish video in class today!!” … or variations of that statement. Addleman showed the video that Mariah, Stacy, and I made for our class last year.
One friend even re-lived the end credits sequence for me, the one where the three of us dance in Stacy’s kitchen ridiculously.
I’m in 7-11, showing Stacy...
hoodrat (Stacy):
i’m currently looking on craigs list for a used road bike, so i can stop being phat and ride it to school.
Points
1) My ass you’re going to bike to school, Stacy
2) I just bought a large steak burrito from Chipotle. Someone screamed “Jamie!” from across the parking lot and waved frantically. I’m going to be honest, I greeted them back but I had no idea who it was.
3) I just spent an hour inside Kinko’s, kinko-ing for the first time. Spent $3 and made 30 copies. Good...

"I'm around Jomel too much."
Jamie: go sleep in your own room
Misa: cant
Misa: its gross
Misa: im homeless
Misa: dont tell dad
So I took James to the doctor to get some shots...
Receptionist: So how old are you?
Me: ... 17
Receptionist: You're his sister?
Me: Yes
Black lady next to Receptionist: Wait, wait... you're his sister?
Me: ... yes
Black lady next to Receptionist: 'Cause I was about to say you're one YOUNG LOOKIN' MAMA.
Exhaustion
I just helped Devin and Haxo film their Update segues, when I really should’ve been sleeping.
I’m so worn out I can barely recall what happened today in school. And now it’s six, the time I usually start my homework. No sleep is a bummer.
Pat on the Back
It’s 7AM on Monday morning, and I have officially finished my english assignment. I think a “congratulations” is in order… too bad no one’s awake to pat me on the back.
I’ve been punishing myself throughout this entire assignment. “You can’t eat until you’ve finished three essays,” “You can’t pee until you’ve finished...
Four down, two to go
I’m going to nap and wait for my peers to finish their synopsis and connection to another book that we’ve read this semester because 1) I’m too lazy to think for my own damn self, and 2) I haven’t read any other books this semester so I wouldn’t know what the hell to connect it to.
But I can proudly say that I wrote the other four essays on my own, and it’s...
Double ouch
Me: are you living in the same apartments as misa next year
Him: yeah, vdc norte
Me: cool, can I sleep over
Him: maybe. the apartment is ours for the summer
Me: you just 'maybe'd a cute girl asking to spend the night
Me: maybe you really are gay
Him: who's this cute girl
Me: hahah touche
Me: and ouch.
Him: bahaha
Him: no, really
Him: who's this cute girl
“Hey… are you the girl on that wall?”
– Leo put up his painting of me at the cocktail party last night. I was asked this question by, safe to say, every member of the party.
Buddhist
Off to my last day of temple. At least, the last until the next 50 days are up, then I return for one last stint of chanting, kneeling, and incense.
When I return I have to immediately call my ‘DWM’ group to do our long over-due project on the Great Gatsby. I still don’t understand the relevance of that story. I think I need to re-read it.
Tammy Nguyen
just called me at 7:45AM after I finally fell asleep at like 2 or 3AM. That’s a no-no. Being me, I can’t fall back asleep… and so I’m going to go shower and try to start my précis.
“Everybody’s talking how I, can’t, can’t be your love,
But I...”
Open letter to a friend
Hey Mariah,
Alls you need to do is call homie. I’m still here, patiently waiting for L7 to be what we used to be. I miss you just as much as you miss us, and I’m still that (slightly less bony) shoulder for you to cry on. I think the depression of being away from you three made me gain weight, haha.
Fellow L7, Jamie
Fuck, fuck, fuck
Adam just reminded me that I have SATs next Saturday. Bummer. I need to get a prep book. Either that or try to learn how to read Adam’s mind.
Cocktail, emphasis on 'cock'
I just came home from a cocktail party, all gussied up and feelin’ fly. It was fun. I tried a lot of sophisticated drinks, apart from the usual “ay who wants a shot?!!!!” Danced a little. Mingled a little. Stared at the mass of people, the 4:1 ratio of men vs. women. I agreed to go salsa tomorrow night at a dance club, but I’m dissapointed because I already know I...
"Social dislocation... [makes for] a lasting...
Analyze the relevance of this generalization focusing on the time period of (during, after) World War I.
That was, roughly, what the DBQ asked for in Maheu’s. At least, what I can remember of it. I wrote about the philosophy of Dualism.
Kids, don’t fall asleep during essays.
Flowers
Out of pure guilt Madonna and I went asearching for some flowers to give to her mother as our truce flag and our apology. After driving to Linda Vista, and then to Mission Valley… I discovered my family doesn’t keep their shops open past 6PM on weekends. So we rushed back to Mira Mesa and bought a bouquet with all the money Madonna and I had left, rushed to Madonna’s home,...
Jealous Boyfriend
Is it that hard to trust? Especially when you’ve got a girlfriend that has never wronged you. And before the subject of this blog reads this and argues, no, she has never wronged you.
I took my friend and left a gathering we were at last night to attend another party, telling her boyfriend: “we’ll be back.” And I did come back. But I sent her home because her mother...
Live blogging
at Jarryd’s house. It’s his birthday. I’m pretty bored. The end.
49
According to my family’s religious beliefs, the 49th day marks the rebirth of the deceased and today is the day. My grandfather is officially reborn.
A few days ago I drove by Maddox park and saw the replaced tired swing with two little kids inside being pushed by their parents. I started crying. My grandparents used to walk me to the park with my brother and sister when we were...
It's raining cats and dogs
a couple bunnies, a squirrel, and a giraffe too. I don’t own an umbrella. Weather.com flood-warned 92126.
I MISS YOU Chris
Jamie: everytime i see a black RSX i go "CHRIS?!" but it's never you
Chris: sorrrrryyy
Chris: everytime i see a vietnamese girl witha black booty i go " JAMIE?!"
Chris: but its never you
Chris: cuz i dont think theres anyone in the school that fits that criteria
Jamie: hahahahahaha
“[Redacted] wants some chris caaway penis right now.”
– Chris… BAHAHA.
“Dad, I’m leaving a message to tell you that I have some people over doing...”
– Me, yesterday, making sure Amal heard every word of it. Bahaha. Doing homework isn’t quite the same without too many people in too small a space.
Misa,
I might as well be naked considering there is nothing clean or worth wearing in my closet. If you’re going to do the laundry, at least fold it or y’know… wash some of my stuff. There’s no sense in doing a whole other load for just me. Now I have to wait for Dad and James to dirty enough clothes so I can wash them all at once in an effort to save water. You suck. ...
Lunar Eclipse
Lunar elipse is occuring right now.
The next one is set for December of 2010, I think. I hope in two years it won’t be cloudy and I hope that I’ll have someone to watch it with.
Super large english assignment due on Friday, I...
should be doing anything leisurely for awhile. Like blogging. Okay, I’m going to go start my précis.
Settling
into that spot on my computer chair that convinces me to just sit and never get up.
Donna Bannavong just called. That means I should probably go put on a bra and find my copy of The Great Gatsby.
“I’m like excited to go home and read [your blog].”
– Amal Flattery.
Half-ass
I’m so lazy I’m starting to annoy the hell out of myself.
I can’t even complete simple tasks like hanging up the towel in the bathroom anymore. My english project is probably the easiest shit in the world and would only take about ten minutes to finish if I would just buckle down, but I refuse to. The whole day I’ve been walking further to my dad’s bathroom...
“but biology is raping everybody”
– Adam Yoneda wants to see me cry. Notes, notes, some more notes, throw in a project, a surplus of vocab, and what the heck, have it due all in one (shortened) week.
Pooh
I ditched school to do some of my homework, and of course I accomplished next to nothing. I finished Chapter 20 of my history text, but I think I’m supposed to be done with Chapter 23.
It was still a fulfilling day because I spent it with Madonna. Y’know, eating hotpockets, chocolate cake, shrimp burritos, hugging her stuffed Pooh from Disneyland, and taking 2 hours worth of naps...
