   Trip To Fresno!!
HEY!!

Well, back from visitting my cousins in Fresno!! And MAN it was sooo fun! We went to go visit my cousin Francis to see her new house that she and Ron (Her husband) bought. It was really cute and spacious. We talked for hours and later my other cousin Angie came to visit her and us. Francis was bubbling with joy. ^__^ She was a bit lonely since her husband has been working so hard and late hours. It was really uplifting just to be around her.

She insisted on making us all lunch and MAN!! Mmmmm, Mexican cooking from scratch. *Drools* Soooo good...The cutest part is that she has this Cow theme for her kitchen and it was totally awesome!! ^__^ I made a suggestion on getting glass covers so you could see her cow dishes. She really liked that idea. ^__^

Later we went with Angie to my Uncle Manuel's. There we sat down a bit and found out Ramona (My Uncle's wife) had hurt her leg and was off work for awhile. ;_; I hope she gets better. My parents started talking Spanish. I had to listen so intently to understand , but all I got were bits here and there. Eventually I was tired and Ruby, my second cousin, she took me to go play with her outside.

She started playing with me since she arrived at Francis' house. She's so cute and tiny with red curly hair, but she has a bit TOO much energy!! Reminds me a lot of my nephew Ben.

N-E-Wayz, we played outside with our second cousins. My brother, Angel(my second cousin is named Angel too.) and Ju-Ju attacked the fusball table and the poor thing was practically falling apart!! My cousin Tommie wasn't home though and that was a bit sad. He's someone I used to be close with that is until he turned all goth and druggie. Sad, but true.

Later we went with Angie to Lolie's another cousin of mine. My mother had told my dad that she was going to be so mad at him if he didn't stop by. *lol* He's scared of Lolie and Angie when they're mad. At Lolie's we ate AGAIN!! Except we had some Pizza and Jamatios!! SOOOO GOOOOD!! I haven't had that for awhile. ^__^ We sat in a circle out in the front and just talked the whole evening away laughing and joking finding out what's been going on with each other, "Lydia!! 18 already?! You don't look a day over 12!!" *lol* Yeah, told that a lot, but it's gonna come in handy when I get REALLY old. ;p

So! We tried to wait for Ray. (Angie's husband) To come off of work and come and meet us, but he didn't. We decided to go back to Francis and spend the night with her. (She offered us.) There Francis fed us some Apple Pie a la mode!! And THAT'S and offer I could not resist!! ^__^ I helped her in the kitchen and we all sat down to watch a CBS show called, "Living With The Dead." IT was REALLY INTERESTING and kept all of our attention. Then Ring-Ring! The doorbell!!

Angie and Ray came over and off course they also have all their hyperactive kids, most of all RUBY!! *lol* She not that bad, just so much energy...They staye dover and we were all talking, but eventually I felt like crashing with my little sister on the bed in the livingroom that Francis so generously brought out for us. ^_^ *sweatdrop* I have to admit it was a bit hard to sleep with everyone gathered in the livingroom too. I think they went home around eleven.

^__^ Next morning before we left home for Bakersfield, we went to Angie's for breakfast. SOOOOO GOOOOD!! *Drools* *Shakes Head* I think I probably gained a few pounds coming back. *lol* At Angie's house she told us about the cats who won't go home. There were about twenty of them just hanging and chilling in her backyard.

THEY WERE ALL SO CUTE!! One looked like my old cat and my brother liked it a lot. It was the only cat that had the right to be there because Angie said it was her grandpa's that he left it with her.

*lol* Angie told me once how Ruby had gone in the fridge and feed the cats a new package of balonge and hot dogs!! She got angry at her and asked her why didn't she give them the cat food. Ruby said they wanted weenies instead. She's four years old just so you all know. She LOVES animals and always wants to go to the zoo. ^__^

Let's see, what else? Well, I started reading the book Ganymede let me borrow and it's pretty good thus far. Called, "A Wizard's Rule" I only mamaged to get 100 pages dent in it. It's about 800 pages in all. I'll let you all know how things go! Ja 'ne!!

   Might Not Update As Often
Hey guys,

just thought I should give you all who have been so nice on commenting on my posts that I might not do any for awhile.

Well, we're trying to make ends might at the moment and the first thing to go is the internet. Can't keep paying for it and it's not as necessary like having to pay the bills.

My mom and dad can't take a second loan. So were also going to not eat so frequently at a resturant our whole family loves. Oh, well, this just means we can sleep in after church now. No biggie. ^_^

BUT!! Once I go to Cal State I can probably go over to the computer labs and update my posts if it's not too full. It's free and my classes end probably when most people's start. ^__^ So that's good! Not to mention I'll have access for important reports I might have to do.

I'll keep posting as long as I can though!! Ja 'ne!!

   Trip to The Bookstore
Yep, as the title suggests I had a wonderful time going to the bookstore downtown with Ganymede, AngelsNeverCry, her boyfriend, Koneko, and Contraband. Faye-chan wasn't able to make it, but hopefully we can make plans to go and doing something fun before she goes to college. ^__^

It was a trade day where you turn in old books and can get some new ones. I had about $14.50 in sci- fic and $20.00 in general fic. I got an interesting book and Ganymede suggested I get another. (She said it was a bit like Sailor Moon.) So I was happy on that.

Funniest part during that time was when I was looking at the biblical section of the books. I was holding Ganymede's big pile when one of my friends, Contraband, popped up beside me!! I got a bit freaked out and jumped a little. I dropped one book though. (I think I did pretty good!)Ganymede and Contraband laughed, but it's okay. ^__^

We all decided to go to Borders and I gave out my list of suggests. Hee hee I think its cool when ppl ask you what they should read. ^__^ Makes you feel like a true manga fan. ^__^ YAYNESS!! I finished the series "Tramps Like Us" or more of all the books they had of it. *teary eyes* I want a Momo of my own!!!

One funny part there was that I would sit somewhere and my friends would kinda follow me around. >_> <_< It's kinda hard to read and enjoy a light romance manga with someone right next to you. *blush* Man, I really need to get the series to enjoy it privately I guess. Always feel so girly reading those kind of mangas.

After that it was time to go home. And Koneko let me have her drink afterwards. She didn't like it very much. It was one of those cold coffees, I forget what you call them at the moment. I've been trying not to drink so much coffee. It's been easy over the summer, but once winter somes I get the feeling it's going to be a whole lot harder!! *sweatdrop*

   YAHOO!! TAKUHAI HAS ARRIVED!!
I'm very happy that my Takuahai has arrived, I was beginning to wonder about it! I went to Borders today after taking my pic for the hispanic Scholarship. Eck! So hard to smile in front of cameras!! (At least the guy who took it was a funny and cute Asian ^_~) Anyway it was early and we went to Borders.

I got to find the manga series I wanted to read more on called, "Tramps Like Us" Now! Don't be fooled by it's title. It's nothing nasty and it's rather sweet and funny romantic comedy. ^_^ I positively loved it and read the first three mangas of it. I'm hoping to save enough moola to go and buy the series. ^_^ Here's some pics of the two main characters and a clip sypnosis I found describing it! PLEASE GO READ THE SERIES AND APPLY FOR TAKUHAI!! IT'S TOTALLY FOR REAL AND FREE!! ^__^


Gentle Embrace

Sumire is a perfect woman with an excellent career, a high academic background and a beautiful body like a model. But her everyday life had been quite unhappy and stressful, because she had no one to say what she was really thinking and feeling.
One day she found a young boy, Momo on the street in front of her house…….


Love you just the way you are...


Forever


BAD DOG!!


LOL, I really loved it and I seriously hope you all can look into it. Volume Two, or when Sumire's old fiance comes back to apologize to her and then Momo talks to her. *Teary eyes* He tells her the sweetest thing I've ever heard, it almost made me cry!!! Momo told---well---I'll just let you all find it out yourself. ^____^

   Good Days
*lol* Been so long since I've had some good days in a row. ^__^ Life keeps looking up and it's about time!!

Let's see, where to start?

My little sister was in a bad mood so I thought I'd cheer her up a little by getting us ice cream. ^_^ She totally hated it and I was trying to get her to taste it. She acted like a brat and we fought a bit and the ice cream went SLAT!! In her hair which is hilarious b/c she had gotten whip cream in it from my brother just a few hours ago. *lol* She got really mad and started shouting, "CURSE YOU! CURSE YOU AND YOUR SNACKS!!" I was rolling, and she eventually did to.

I thought I'd make it up to her...she was doing some project for fun and she had lots of glue...*Big grin*...She tried to get back at me with the ice cream by outting glue on my hand,but...heh heh, I really shouldn't be left alone not to mention rather bored with glue...I looked at her and smiled. She was trying to get me mad, I guess. She went back and put a lot of glue on a piece of paper and stuck it on my hand. I laughed and spread the glue all over my hand then slapped the remains on the paper to my right cheek. (MY FACE OF COURSE!!) She laughed so hard and got another for me to do the same for my left. I remembered doing the glue thing when I was a kid, it was fun! ^_^ When I peeled the dried glue off my hand I couldn't help, but say, "My skin is so smooth!!" She laughed even harder when I peeled the one off my face. IT HURTED SO MUCH!! I kept my grin on though and there were tears in my eyes. She tried to slap another paper glue wad on my forehead, but I didn't let her. I accidentally gave her a hard headbutt. She was in tears too, but was laughing her little heart out.

Later we calmed down and went to bed...before the whole glue thing started I was calling Jessy and asked if she wanted to do anything. While on the phone my little sister wrote me yet another of her "tender" letters. *lol* We decided to go to the movies and see Willy Wonka. I love that movie and realized that he reminds me of a little boy who never grew up. Also both Willy and I were dancing exactly the same when the Umpalumpas came out singing!! O.O I hadn't noticed before!!

At the end of the movie I decide I was going to actually dance in front of the seats instead on just dancing in my seat like last time. It was so cool! I got Jessy to go down with me. It was such a blast!! I'd stop and look around after dancing a bit, PARANOIA!! *lol* Luckily we weren't caught, but I was extrememly dizzy afterwards. @_@

After the movies we went to the mall and I went to that Build-A-Bear place. (Rather new here.) I bought a gift certificate for my nephew and the place was a bit horrifying at first glance. I joked about it (Especially the big bear in the window wearing a pink tutu.) and the cash register guy looked at me and said while smiling, "I heard that." *blush* Opps.

He gave us both work applications and I seriously hope I can get the job. If I do then I'm going to start working August 29th. So pray for me! ^_^ I could really use the money, now starting college and for my family financial need of assistance.

My mom suggested I have Jessy over for dinner and I'm glad I did. I admit I was a bit over excited, but who wouldn't be after not seeing a friend over two years. (Doesn't feel that long.) If you want details please go check out her site on Otaku under scribble_born.

What else? Oh! I tried calling Daniel, but the bum was still asleep @ noon!! I thought he might have like the reunion of Middle School friends, oh well. You snooze you loose!

Well, trying to fix my site and make things better here. Also on the look out for any cool guitar tunes I can learn.

See Ya Later!!
