Melissa [Nov. 4th, 2009|12:00 am]

I found out that apparently the Indian version of Melissa (Greek for "honey bee") is Makshi or Madhubala and Mel ("honey") is Madhu (Sanskrit)

Direction [Jun. 11th, 2009|11:30 pm]
[mood |accomplished]

I found out today that I got into the master's program at University of La Verne, and this is just what I needed academically to feel like my life has some direction again.  I've been feeling so confused, but it makes me happy to know that I will now be enrolled in graduate school, which I had given up on for no good reason.

I know it's the only program I applied to, but I think I didn't need to explore other options.  I am actually happy with this choice.  Now the only problem will be finding a way to pay for it.

I passed! [May. 29th, 2009|12:25 pm]
I passed the written portion of the California Court Interpreter exam!  It was ridiculously hard, and I thought I had failed it, but I passed.  Yay!  The person at the test-taking center said that I was the only one she had seen pass it; I know the test has a ridiculously low passing rate, but wow!

Anyway, now I just have to take the oral part, and if I pass that, I get my license to be a certified California Court Interpreter.

Frustrated [Feb. 26th, 2009|12:18 am]
I have tried everything in my power, but nothing works.  Well, I haven't tried EVERYTHING; I do have my limits and some morals.  I am tempted to pay that minimal fee of $2.95 and lose all dignity once and for all.  Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Ok, I need to get over it.

Seven of the top nine overall individual awards went to Chaffey students. Chaffey took first place in ALL ten events. Chaffey's JV Team not only took first place in its category, it had the 3rd highest score overall! Chaffey will next compete in the State competition in Sacramento March 13-16.

Chaffey currently ranks 3rd behind national champions Moorpark H.S. and El Camino Real H.S.

I have decided [Nov. 1st, 2008|02:03 am]
As of now, I will go back to posting on this thing more.  It is so amusing to go back and read old entries and relive memories, that I decided to begin documenting fun moments again.

Screw it! [Oct. 24th, 2008|08:56 am]
[mood | annoyed]

I've said it before, and this time I really mean it.  I am sick of being the one to always try to keep in touch with people.  I am sick of being pushed aside by "friends" until they feel they need me because, really, that's the only time most people come around, when they need me.  From now on, I am not the person people turn to only when they need something from me.  I want my REAL friends around me and no one else.  I am sick of wasting my time with people who turn their backs on me when they do not need me, when they have found something "better" to do with their time than be around me.

I am not saying that I won't be there for anyone.  Of course I will.  There are those people who lead very busy lives who actually make time for me when they can, and even though I don't see them or hear from them much, I know exactly why it is.  There are also those who keep in touch regularly and want to get together regularly, not just when they need rides or comfort.

Hmmm, school is not in anymore, and yet, a certain someone who used to use that as an excuse for her lack of time to pick up the phone has not called at all.  What do you think, Holly?

I met DARREN HAYES!!! [Nov. 10th, 2007|10:05 am]
[mood | ecstatic]

Well, let me start with the horrible story first.  We get to Borders in Hollywood, where he's going to be, a few minutes before 4pm.  I saw a great spot to park in front of Borders, so I took it.  I saw a Wells Fargo across the street, and Sam and I went in.  We come out no more than 15 minutes later to find that my car is being towed.  I start crying like a baby.  They let me keep my car, but I have to pay $150, and I pay, but I am still freaking out wondering if it will go on my driving record or if it will be under the car's history at DMV.  The officer and the tow-truck man tell me no, as long as I pay the parking ticket.  WHAT???  Aside from paying the $150 to get my car back, now I have to pay another $140 for the ticket.  Needless to say, I am more than broke now.  The Christmas presents I needed to complete won't be complete anymore.  I mean, everyone is getting something, but most people were getting more than one thing.  I still might complete my shopping, if I find the means, but my mom cannot find out about the car almost being towed and about the money I owe the city of L.A.  She will murder me.  I am FURIOUS about this.
So Darren Hayes performed a few songs and was amazing, like always.  Then he signed autographs, and I got to meet him.  He is so nice!  I love him.  He told Sam he liked her eyes and asked her if they were contacts. I wish I were Sam at that moment!  Boo.  J/k.

It's funny how one of the greatest moments of my life got tainted by stupidity.  Ugh.

RACISM (Pasted from an E-mail I received) [Sep. 20th, 2007|11:18 am]
Hey All,

I know it is a little late to tell everyone, but I just found out myself.
Today is a nation wide protest regarding racism in Jena, Louisiana.  This
incident is also known as the Jena 6.  Long story short, a Black student
asked permission to sit under a tree know to be reserved for Whites.  The
teachers told him to sit where he likes, so he sat under that tree.  The
next day, some White students hung three nooses in the school's colors.  A
few incidents followed.  Then a White student racially taunted a Black
student who was beaten days before and then a school fight broke out amongst
this White student and some Black students.  The White student ended up in
the hospital, but was out a couple of hours later and even attended a social
gathering.  The Black students were arrested for second degree murder and
conspiracy.  Mychell Bell, one of the 6 guys was just sentenced a month ago
to 22 years in prison.  The others are waiting to be sentenced.  This is
obvious racism, and if you feel that this is not right, below is a website
where you can go and sign a petition.  Or, if you like, tell someone, spread
it around.  I know it is probably to late for most of you, as most of you
have already started your day, but today many are wearing black in protest.
Also below is YouTube website where you can find out more info.

Petition:  http://www.petitiononline.com/aZ51CqmR/petition.html

YouTube:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuoiZnr4jLY

If nothing else, please tell others about this and educate yourselves

Thank you!

2006 in Review [Dec. 31st, 2006|05:00 pm]
[Current Location |at home on the phone with hot-ass Raysa]
[mood | horny]

I did this last year, where I copied and pasted the first section of the first journal of every month, so I am doing it again this year.



January:  Wow.  I have not updated in a while.  So much is going on lately.  I went to MOCA for the third time on Friday, this time taking Chris and Shane.

Yes.  Shane is awesome!  We are not official, yet.

I am in Portland at the moment.  Sam and I flew in yesterday.  I go back to Ontario on Friday.

 

February:  Tomorrow begins the last year of my teenagehood.  I am getting old!

 

March:  This is stupid.  I know that us not being together is what's best for me, but it still hurts.  I want to be one of those people who do not care.  I mean, we are still friends and everything, but how can two friends who like each other keep a relationship platonic, especially having been in a relationship already?  How?  Well, we can do it.  It is difficult.  I just wish it didn't have to be this way.  Things could have worked out.  Of course, all we really need is time and maybe start all over again.
We are an undefined thing right now.  He doesn't want to tell people we broke up.  He tells some others that we went back to just dating, but then he turns around and goes, "Yes, we are just friends.  We should not do this and that, and I should not say this to you, but I can't help it!"  Then he tells me he misses being in a relationship with me.

He needs to figure things out.  Why does it have to be this way?  I am not angry with him at all, regardless of what he thinks.  I am not.  There is no real reason to be.  He's been honest.

 

April:  One of my friends posted this on Myspace:
On Wednesday at two minutes and three seconds
after 1:00 in the morning, the time and date will be
01:02:03 04/05/06

 

May:   It is 6:30 a.m.  I just got back to the dorm.  That was one crazy night, and it shouldn't happen again.  I don't know what to believe anymore.  God, I believe in God, and he will guide me through this.  I don't know that there is any logical explanation for some stuff that happened, but God will help.

 

June: [No entries]

 

July:  I haven't posted in a while.  I feel like I have nothing to say really.  Well, I do, but then all my posts this week would be negative probably.
I want the summer to end.  I hate this weather.  I hate everything going on, but do I really want to go back to school already?  It will be difficult when the semester starts because my closest friends in the Claremonts will be abroad or have already graduated.  It sucks!  Time to make new friends.  Yay!  (Not that I hate making friends, but finding nice people in Claremont is kind of difficult)

 

August:  So I finally said what I needed to say to him.  Things did not go too well, but at least it's out of my system.  I don't really know what to think, how to feel, or what to do.  I think a friendship can work out, but I don't know how we're going to go about it.  I am hurt.  I am upset.  I really wish he understood, but he doesn't.  He doesn't want to.  I feel completely torn.  I feel stupid.  I know I will be fine because I am strong.  I will be fine, but it's really a matter of when.  Everyone please have patience because I will likely be bitter for a while, but later I will go back to normal.  While I am depressed, I am going to try to not let it get to me.  Nothing more should come of this.  That's all.

 

September:  I don't know what to do with myself anymore.  I am angry that I won't let go.  I told myself I would, and when I tried, it seemed to be going well.  Then back to my life he comes.  I thought I would succeed, and now, I don't know what's going on.  Nothing has happened, and I am upset.  No, I am not "PMSing,"  so people don't have to wonder that.  I guess I need to change my attitude?  I am not sure where things get so complicated, or maybe I refuse to see it.  I don't know.  I need to stop.  My main focus is school, and that's how it should be.  That's it...school.

 

October: Through a Rapist's Eyes (No Joke)
This is important information for females of ALL ages .

 

November:  I like how you can post the simplest of blogs, ones that are so vague they can apply to anything or anyone, and yet, the person who you're really talking about takes it personally.  That's when you know you're not overreacting.  It's funny how things work.

 

December:  I feel like I haven't posted here in forever.  I guess it's because it's been pretty dead lately.
Anyway, I don't know how to feel.  Sometimes I wish I were truly jaded, that way things wouldn't bother me, but the truth is, things do.  I sometimes feel numb, and that feeling bothers me, but feeling numb seems better than feeling bothered by the stupid meaningless shit that I should really not pay attention to.
I feel like sometimes I attract unnecessary drama.  Why is that?  What am I doing wrong?
Anyway, I am being bothered by Shane, so I will cut this post short.




Conclusions:  This year has been an emotional roller coaster for me.  It started really well the first month, and then it went downhill the second month.  I thought 2006 would be an awesome year, and it did have its moments, but was also horrible.  Hopefully 2007 will be better!
