I Went To a Crawfish Festival Yesterday!
Start: 7:57 PM CST
Hey guys! Yeah yeah, I know I didn't post yesterday and all, but I got home from a festival around...11 PM, and I was too tired to post. XP
Saturday/Yesterday
Hey guys. Hehe, yeah. I didn't really do anything.
Well, I woke up around 9 AM... (Have you ever had that feeling you had school that day, but you remembered, and you didn't have school? That's what I had. XP) I got a bit bored, so I remembered I had to do laundry and stuff like that. (My parents weren't home in the early morning, so eh.) Anyways, I remembered I had a black shirt I need to darken. (You know how when you wash black clothes with a lot of bleach sometimes and it starts to become blotchy and/or fade? Well, I know how to dye clothes so that they become their original colors.)
Well, I started to pour the dye and the water in, until I realized I needed to use HOT WATER. (GAR. ALL THIS TIME I'VE BEEN USING COLD WATER FROM A GARDEN HOSE!!! And I've already been stirring it for half an hour!!! GRR!!!) So I went inside and started boiling water.
In the meanwhile, my dad and brother were fixing the plastic coverings for the kitchen's chairs... I got really aggravated because my brother kept repeating something over and over when I had already answered it. (I hate it when he does that!!!)
Well, I did pour in hot water, and it did take a while... (I made three batches from two kettles.) So it took time and I poured it into the thing with the dye and stuff...
OH MY GOSH. IT WAS TIRING. Imagine standing outside on a hot day, crouching down, and stirring a liquid with fabric inside for like...1-2 hours!!! (It wasn't painful, but I think the sunlight hurt my eyes. XP) It also kinda made me cranky doing. -_-;;
Well anyways, after stirring the shirt in hot water with dye for a while, I washed it off with cold water and then hand-washed it with laundry detergent. XP (My mom wouldn't let me use the washing machine since it might stain it...)
See what people have to go through to MAKE clothes? I mean from scratch? The dye, plus the cutting and sewing takes a long time... My mom can make clothes, but she doesn't like to, since going to a store and buying clothes takes less time. (And it might not seem like it, but you spend more time and more money buying fabric to make clothes.)
Anyways, me going on about what's-a-matcha-call-its... XP
Well, I stayed on the computer and tried to fixed the computer. It's so TIRING... -_-;;
Well, my parents called me and asked if I wanted to go to a festival with them and I said "yes", even though it took me a while to get ready since the computer was getting on my nerves. (Sometimes, I feel like smashing it, and it's pretty brand-new!!! o_O;; But computer is supposed to make your life easier! Instead, viruses and spyware and stuff makes your life more tiring... GRR.)
Well, I wore a white T-shirt and indigo cargo pants. (Not so special, but eh. XP) My dad was in the kitchen taking down the phone number and information about the church where the festival was held at.
Well, Ah Fah came! (I call her that, but she's not really my grandmother. XP) But first, she wanted to come inside and look at the exotic Chinese pictures my parents bought and hung in the house. XP
Well, we did go after she finished looking, and I found out Ah Kung didn't come with us since he didn't like to listen to music... ^^;; (Chewing gum on the whole way, I listened to my adults talk about stuff. It's fun if you know what they're talking about. XP No one else was with me but them. XP)
Ah, Houston has so many tollways! (Those are the thingys where they make you stop and pay money to pass...) Hehe, my dad called the guy from the church to see what roads to take to get to the church... And by doing that, he took the "non-paying lane". (You can get a ticket for doing that... ^^;;)
Well anyways, it took a try or two, since we missed the street and had to U-turn back... ^^;; (I've noticed there are people's feet sticking out from the top of the highways. o_O! Like, those stretches of highway that are on long poles, and underneath it, there are sometimes people hiding in there. o_o;;)
We did finally get to the festival place, and it was such a small church. XP But still, I looked around, and I found it...peaceful... It had that same feeling of P.A. (Oh, how I missed that feeling... Yeah, you don't realize you miss something until you leave it...)
I realized that it was a Spring/Crawfish Festival!!! (Actually, it was Mid-Spring, and it was also Earth Day! XP)
Well, we sat in the front and waited for my dad to park the car. Hehe, I wanted to go eat, and I was pointing behind me (since the music was blaring and I used my hands to kinda show what I meant) and my mom thought I was pointing to a white guy that was working the controls for the stage behind me. XP (It was a Vietnamese festival though. XP) But I meant the food. XP
But before that, I wanted to explore the church! There were games too, and a dunking game (trying to think of the name, but it's where you throw a ball at a thing, and when it hits, the person sitting over the water falls down), and when I saw that, it just made me laugh. XP
There were some games, but there was no DDR. XP (Usually, there are DDR games in the Vietnamese festivals I go to, but eh. XP) And I found my dad in the parking lot. XP
So I bought a ton of food really. At first, my mom wanted me to buy che for Ah Fah. (She wanted che thap, which is Vietnamese black fungus pudding.) Well, I don't know if you can ACTUALLY call it pudding, but I can't find another word for it. XP
Well, I bought meat shish-kabobs and sugar cane juice (I originally wanted to buy gumbo instead of sugar cane juice, but the two women who worked there said "What's gumbo?" WAIT. Why write it on your board if you don't sell that?!), but when I came back, my mom left to go buy stuff for Ah Fah. Fruit salads yum. XP
But my parents didn't want to buy crawfish, since they said it was dirty to eat, especially sitting where we were. (But really, what's a crawfish festival without crawfish? XP)
What's a crawfish, you ask? It's seafood, common around the Gulf of Mexico area, and it looks like a lobster, only the size of a shrimp. XP
I kinda wandered the playing thing again, and I saw two policemen laughing at the dunking game, and I was too... XP (Dunno why though. XP)
Well, it was really fun, and I met a bunch of famous Vietnamese singers. ^^ (It's weird, but these group of people are more enthusiastic than last year's La Vang festival. ^^;;) Hehe, there was a singer that was 60, but only looked 20-30. o_O;; (At first, I thought she had plastic surgery and stuff done, but I found out she never had it done, even though it looked like it! So imagine being 60, and looking 30-something. I read that in a book somewhere, and it has to do something with your genetics...)
Oh yeah... My dad finally bought crawfish. Well actually, he gave me the money to go buy it. -_-;; Oh my gosh... I felt dirty eating the crawfish, since it really is messy. ^^;; (I saw Ah Fah looking at us eat with kinda a digusted face... ^^;;)
Really, I tried to be SOO neat with eating crawfish, but it's really hard. -_-;;
I got ordered around to get stuff and throw some stuff away... ^^;;
I kinda felt sleepy around some of the acts... XP I've noticed that some of the people singing went to school in the U.S. It's weird, eh? I meant, imagine having a friend that you knew, but you didn't know they were famous in another country. (That's how it was like for Utada Hikaru! Born and raised in NYC, but famous in Japan. ^^) Well, there was a guy and a bunch of girls/women clapped for him. (He even got flowers from a girl in the audience? o_O?) At first, I thought he said he was gonna strip... o_O;; But no. Well, he was declaring his love for a girl in the audience, whoever that was. (Didn't catch the name, but it sounded like "Elizabeth".)
There was also a little kid show at the thing, where these young elementary kids were doing a skit and there was also a little kid dance when I first got to the place. Oh my gosh... Those little kids looked so cute in their traditional Vietnamese clothes!!! ^^ Also, in the skit, even though the little kids forgot some of the parts of the skit, the audience found it cute and started laughing... Aww... ^^
But one of the little girls was singing before the skit... At first, I didn't hear her... Really, her Vietnamese singing was HARD to understand... (You see, Vietnamese is a tonal language, like Mandarin and Cantonese, etc.) But I heard the words "sau rieng" in her song, which means "durian".
What's a durian, you ask? Look it up on Yahoo! or Google. XP
Hmm, I also went to go buy more food, like a Dr. Pepper and corn and stuff... XP Ugh, you know that crawfish I was eating? I wanted to wash up, but I couldn't since I couldn't find the restrooms, so I used water from my soda and bottled water and yeah... -_-;; But my dad bought that corn, and guess what?! HE ACTUALLY TRIED TO HAGGLE WITH THE PERSON THAT SOLD THE CORN!!! (Shame on him! And if you don't know, haggling means when you buy something at a store, but you start talking to them to somehow lower the price... -_-;;) But Ah Fah couldn't eat the corn... -_-;; (She's getting of old age, and she can't use her teeth so well.)
Well, my brother did call my dad once... Oh yeah. I looked around, and I saw a SWARM OF PEOPLE COVERING THE STAGE AND FESTIVAL GROUNDS!!! (OH MY GOSH! SO MANY PEOPLE COME AT NIGHT!!!) Oh yes. Did I also tell you about the fly problem? Yes. At the festival, there were swarms of flies covering the area, and even flew into people's foods. Ugh. -_-;;
Oh yes. While we were listening to the music, a woman fell down because her foldable chair broke. o_O;; (It scared me, and the people around her, and she was holding her daughter.) She left the chair there and probably went somewhere else to sit. I later picked up the nails that fell out of the chair. ^^;;
Well, we did finally go home because my mom was worried about Ah Fah and stuff... We left the church grounds around...10:30 PM, and we reached home around 11 PM, and we dropped off Ah Fah at An Suc's house. ^^ (She gave me her fruit from the festival... XP) Hehe, my mom was afraid An Suc was gonna yell at Ah Fah for being home so late and making him worry and stuff... ^^;;
Well, when I finally did get home, I stayed up, ate a little bit of stuff, and went to sleep around midnight or whatever... ^^;;
But before that, I decided to stay on the computer for a little bit... I checked my site and found a nasty comment from "mysterious guy", A.K.A. Andrew/Sai... I mean, if he really hates me, why does he keep coming to my site? (If you don't know what I'm talking about, read yesterday's comments.)
Sunday
Well, I woke up around 7 PM since my alarm rang, and I just woke up. XP I wanted to go on the computer and fix some stuff, but my sister was playing, and I was tired, yet so stressed... I saw that the floors were looking a little dirty, so I swept the kitchen floors... Then I watched T.V., and I even did some stretches and exercise to get rid of stress and wake me up a bit more... ^^;; I finally did get to go on the computer, but it was spent talking to my friends a bit and still fixing the computer more. -_-;; GRR.
Well, I played Neopets with Chi and she beat me in the Battledome!!! -_-;; I only managed to do 1 damage to her!!! -_-;; (I need to train more there.)
Well, I finally went to church around 12:15 noon and got there by 12:35 noon... So when I got there, I sat with Diana for a little bit, and then I spotted Lac-Hong, and I went to go talk with her. Lately, Lac-Hong's been having some friend problems. There's this girl that's been hacking her AIM and saying bad things to her friends and talking mess about her... Poor Lac-Hong... We also chatted with Son, and we had a chat about our school problems. ^^
Well, they had to head to class, but I went to the food market outside by the church, and I bought che. Yum. ^^ Andy was helping out with the food selling, and I decided to too. ^^ Helping pack out sodas, selling food, yeah. And Ricky wanted to help too. XP Khang came along later and he helped around too. XP But it caused a bunch of commotion... XP
Tay Bich gave a dustpan and broom to Andy, but I wanted to sweep, so I did it. ^^ (Ah, sweeping the church. Hehe. It was to keep me busy, and I didn't mind, but I seriously think it needs a good MOPPING instead. ^^;;) I found ants by some bok choy... o_o;;
Well, Khang wanted to sweep, so I gave the sweeping stuff to him. (Yeah, he has an uncle who owns a restaurant, and his uncle makes him sweep the restaurant, and once, he said he did it for five hours. XP He's only in fourth grade too... Aww... ^^;;)
Well, there was a point where I went back to sweeping, and Khang was helping people buy food, and he gave them the wrong amount of change. (He's fourth grade. XP) And so, Andy said "Hey, give him back the broom. This guy can't do math." *laughs* Ah, poor guy.
Well, I wanted to go back to selling food, so I went to go wash my hands and go back... Then Khang TRIED TO SELL ME!!! o_O;; For FOUR BUCKS!!! A guy who was buying food was kidding around and said he'll buy me... XP (I kept making him let go... XP) Oh yeah! Khang even advertised "He'll do anything!" Andy laughed and made the remark that I was being sold as a prostitute, since I would do "anything". (GREAT. o_O;; So I'm being sold as a prostitute for $4? Later, he changed the price to $5. -_-;;)
So yeah... Andy and Ricky kept eating the food without paying for it!!! (They say if you work there, you get to eat some of the food as a "pay", but I still pay for the food I eat. But Ricky...HE WAS JUST PIGGING IT ALL DOWN. -_-;;)
Andy said that if we couldn't get enough people to buy food, he would get a sharp stick and bag and do stuff to people. o_O;; (He would make the people put the money in the bag, or he would hurt them with the sharp stick. XP) Or was it that he would cover their faces with the bag??? Anyways, it was funny. XP
I bought some fried rice, and that was it. Oh, the bell rang, and we had to head to class... But no one was gonna be able to watch over the food stand... o_O;;
Lac-Hong was thinking about skipping, but the teacher wasn't even there, so we just talked outside the classroom. Oh yeah! Chi came and we chatted! Chi showed me a picture at her at Times Square (Houston, not New York... XP) and there was a picture of Dai... o_O;; But it looked like a ghost! Imagine a little Asian girl with a flashlight to her face and it was in the dark... Creepy effects. o_O;; There was also another picture of her as the girl from "The Ring"... o_O;;
Oh yeah. Khang wanted to write on my hand, and I fought back, but I let him... And then he wanted a piggy back ride, and he kept stretching my shirt and yeah, I did give him a piggy back ride. I didn't mind. He kept saying "Go faster horsey!" though... -_-;; (But there were some perverted guys going "Ew..." when they saw me giving a piggy back ride to that little kid. Okay, imagine me giving a piggy back ride to a little kid... There's nothing wrong with it. But they were thinking pervertedly!) In a way, I think of Khang as my younger brother... XP But I spoil him too much. XP Chi says I'm too nice, and that I let little kids boss me around. But Chi says that's a good thing... XP
Oh yeah. Khang saw a picture of Dai and he said "Man, she's hot." My and Chi's expression: o_O;; (Chi thinks he's a weirdo... ^^;;) She also said she's too old for him, but they're only a year apart. (She said he was short... ^^;; But he'll have a growth spurt soon. XP)
Oh yeah... Khang tried to put his arms around Chi and she grabbed his hand... ^^;; He also sang a song about Tony the Tiger and how he f***ed him... o_O;; (Using that same tune with "Hey Tony!")
Okay, so Khieu Thu saw us and asked us to sign a card for Co Jennifer, whose birthday is coming up soon. (Ooh. ^^) I didn't know what to write, and all John wrote was "Ditto." XP
Nam's dad was substituting that day since the regular teacher wasn't here. Kim came in, and she told us that our ending exam was supposed to be today, but the teacher didn't come, so we couldn't take it... Instead, we did a Chinh ta and that counted as our exam... o_O;; Oh yeah. I also took Lac-Hong's friend test, and I scored a 60! (That was the highest one! XP Son scored a 10. XP)
Well, after Viet Ngu class, we took a picture of Nickkie in her classroom and Chi kept trying to find Dai... I can't believe she doesn't know her own sister's classroom... And even more, she doesn't know her grade!!! @_@!!! So we kept trying to find her. We did, and she was wearing a red shirt with a jean skirt. But when she first saw Chi, she screamed and ran away... o_O;; (That was...random.) Chi and I started running towards her, and I spotted her running outside...) She was wearing red, so she was easy to spot. XP
We chatted with her for a while, and we told her that Khang thought she was hot, and she just said that she hated him... ^^;;
Oh yeah. Khang hit on another little girl... Calling her hot and stuff... ^^;; Her name was...something with a "V". Veronica or Victoria, something like that. XP
So Chi and I headed towards Confirmation, and we did Journal and a bunch of stuff. Oh yeah! Our ending exam is next week, so we made a little game in order for us to take notes for next week... XP
I wasn't on Chi's team, but I was on Andy's! He had lots of peppermint candy, and asked me to throw away the wrappers... ^^;; (Well, hold them in my pocket until class was over, then throw them away. XP)
I talked with Natalie, and oh yeah! I found out Vy and Trang haven't been at Confirmation because they haven't been able to find a ride... Aww... I really miss them.
Oh yeah! Co Jennifer asked me to come out to review my report card, and my average for all the major exams this year is 99!!! ^^ (She expects me to make a 100 after this next text. XP)
So we chatted (Chi, Diana, Nickkie, and I) and Nickkie was on the phone with Sue being all hyper and weird, and Chi was trying to take pictures of us all. XP (Especially of Diana and I, but Nickkie kept blocking it... o_O;;)
Oh yeah. There were these guys around us trying to do pull-ups with a crane in the middle of the church hallway (yes there was a crane) and guys trying to jump as high as they could. ^^;; (Chi asks why do guys do that... I dunno myself. XP)
Oh yeah!!! Khang came and started to mess with me... XP Hehe, he tried to turn on that crane... o_O;; He also dragged me outside so he could beat me up (he was joking about that) and Andy was fending himself off with that same sharp stick and plastic bag from earlier. XP
Several times had he tried to throw that same sharp stick at my head... ^^;; (It missed all those times though. XP)
That sharp stick? It was really a shish-kabob stick. XP
Well, mass was so fun, and I really had a chance to relax. Really, my life is filled with stress, and the only time I can really escape from that stress is church... ^^ It's so calming and peaceful...
After that, Chi and her dad went home, and I finally saw Sonja and Scott again! (I hadn't seen them since the festival preparations, and that was like...2-4 months ago???) I really missed talking to them... ^^
Well, we all headed to Food Town to buy food and all that stuff... (I dunno why, but that store reminded me of the old Market Basket store in P.A. XP)
My sister's afraid to buy stuff by herself, so she makes me come along, and then carry it all the way to the cart... ^^;; (I wonder how it's gonna be like when she grows up? Imagine Diana grabbing a carton of juice to the cart, but when she gets close to the cart, she starts screaming. XP) Me and my wild imagination. XP She also taught me how to curtsy (guy's style) correctly. It's not just a bow. XP (I thought it was! XP)
Well, it was fun in the store. You know, we had that hand signal "Yes Lord" stuck in our heads, and we were doing it... *thumbs up, then L-shaped "loser" sign* And we kept trying to do it as fast as we could... XP
Ah, after shopping, my mom ran across the busy street to the 99 cents store to buy...a lighter, I think? In the meanwhile, I was busily eating a chocolate doughnut and eating those new Jalapeno Cheetos. XP
We headed home, and I've been here ever since. XP
How was my day? I dunno. XP
But if I post it now, no one's gonna read it!!! GRR. Oh well. -_-;;

The TAKS Week Is Finally Over!!!
Start: 6:56 PM CST
Hey guys! TAKS week is finally over! Ah, it was nice for a while. I mean, a state test for a whole day and nothing else to do. Sure it got boring (not really!), but there was nothing else to do, right? XP
Thursday/Science TAKS Test
Hey guys! What did I do in that day? Well, I took the Science test, which was pretty easy, except I realized a few things in the book that we haven't gone over yet!!! GASP! (Luckily, I remembered most of those stuff from last year. XP)
Well, we didn't have lunch in the room that day... So we had to go to 4th - 7th period!
But before that, on a library due date card, I wrote my name and date... It's gonna be a new tradition I'm gonna start. And then, years years later, if I ever come back, I'll open that book back up and see my name and date on there... (It brings back memories... Like reminiscing...)
In the Health room, all the chairs were lined up in rows, and I thought we were gonna stay, but we went into the gym. Oh yeah! Troy brought his Organization XIII jacket (from "Kingdom Hearts") and he wanted to wear it in the gym! But the coaches wouldn't let him. ^^;; (It was the fabric kind, since he said the leather kind cost $400, and he also bought Keyblades from the Disney Store in the nearby mall. XP)
In the gym, I played basketball with a bunch of guys and then Tyrone came and stole the ball from me and I J-ed him and made the shot. (Everyone was so impressed, but I only think it was a lucky shot. ^^;;) Erik makes such a big deal of all the shots I make... ^^;; But I guess it's okay...?
The weirdest thing. Right as I was heading to the locker room, this guy goes up to me and asks "Do you want to have $ex?" My expression: o_O;;
Well, in lunch, Andrew doesn't want to talk to me... (ARGH... I swear... I mean, I was just joking around and I said "I don't want to be your friend anymore" and he took it so literally... But really. I don't know if I want to hang out with him anymore... I mean, it's not his retarded-like ways, but it's just the way he treats me... GRR.) Oh well. I ate lunch by John (the Filipino one) today, since lunch was about to end.
In Art, Melissa was going on about how she hated her Science teacher, Ms. Shaws and a bunch of her other teachers... She also kept saying that day was boring... ^^;; (I was too busy taking vocabulary that was due a long time ago from the board... ^^;;)
In ELA, I sat in the teacher's computer seat and tried to finish up the short story I'm gonna write for the Literary Fair. She's gonna take the stories and publish them into a book. But it's not really typing it up, I was trying to edit it. But it was so hard... In transistion, Nohemi read it and she said the first paragraph sounded really pretty. But that was just it. The other ones sounded so boring and surreal (fake)... -_-;; (Even IF it was a fictional story...)
Oh yeah. She wanted to tell us about dialogue... She read us a story from that same guy who wrote "Hatchet" (can't remember author's name) and she read in a book about how a city cousin made his country cousin pee on an electrical fence and "dirty pictures" and stuff like that... The whole class was filled with people saying "Eww..." (Was that book school appropriate...?!)
After I got home, I started to see if I needed to fix anymore stuff on the computer. (GAH! I need to stay away from the computer more!!!)
But you see, the microphone broke... Well, my sister broke it. It's probably because of something in the wire. Well, anyways, around 7 PM, I asked my dad if he could drive me to Best Buy so I could buy a new microphone. He said I had to water the grass, and that took a while. And buying the microphone wasn't that hard. (It was my sister's microphone, and she broke it, and she got angry that I told her she had to pay for the new one since she was also the one who broke it.) She didn't give me enough money (it was $15 plus tax, and she only gave me $15) so I used some of my own.
Well, I told my parents about that broken microphone, and my dad cut open the wires of the microphone and tried to FIX IT!!! (He said to try it, but my mom made him put some duct tape over the cut part, so I don't electrocute myself out. o_O;;) But nonetheless, it didn't work, so I threw it away.
Oh yeah! That little girl from winter break! Gwendolyn! She came over yesterday and started to fight with Ricky... XP Her mom came to me and asked for a English translation for a Vietnamese word, but I couldn't understand what she was speaking about. (You see, her family comes over every now and then to go to the Riverwalk thing at San Antonio... They live in California, and they come down here as their vacation.)
Hehe, I helped Gwendolyn sneak into Ricky's room and beat her up... Then she told me "If he hides somewhere, tell me another way to get in there, okay?" (She was so cute!!! XP)
When they left, I asked my mom where was her mom, and she said the old lady there was her mom. (REALLY?! I could've sworn her mom was younger... o_O;; Like, that time when she visited during Christmas time, she wore a fluffy white beret and white clothes basically. Since her clothes looked like young people wore it, and I only saw a bit of her, I assumed she was young. ^^;;)
Oh yeah. Diana also cooked chicken. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good. Diana and Ricky tried to cook a chicken, and Diana kept complaining about how Ricky's was horrible. Diana's was a bit...sweet. (She flavored her chicken with pineapples and honey. XP) Still, it was good. (But she needed to marinate it more longer!!!)
Friday/Social Studies TAKS Test/Today
Well, today, I took the Social Studies test!
On the bus, J.J. said "Cool outfit Travis." (I was wearing a black shirt, unbuttoned, and under it was a red shirt, and I had black jeans and black tennis shoes.) I said "Thanks." (Then I heard him whisper "That's a bad-ass outfit.") *laughs*
When I was walking toward the testing site, I saw a group of guys whisper about me saying "Who is that guy?" (It's weird. Lots of people here admire Asian people... Or do they... o_O??? Or is it just me?) So one of the guys poked me and asked "Do you want to be my friend?" (He had those thick glasses and it looked kinda...nerdish.) Goldie turned around and said "Oh bother..."
So it was quiet in the TAKS room that whole day... After that, I started to read "The Amber Spyglass", and I finished it today! Oh my gosh... It was so sad... I actually had tears running down my eyes... (I was trying to cover them up. And I didn't make a sound, really. But I looked up, and across the room, Mariette was looking at me...)
It's a really sad book. My opinion: If a book makes me feel emotion, such as making me cry, panicky, etc., it's a good book according to me. ^^
But really... I went from TAKS testing to all the way to 4th period just crying about that book... It wasn't loud crying, but it was subtle... Not loud, but you could see some tears running down... (I had to run to the bathroom to wipe my tears and blow my nose, but while I was doing that, I was covering my nose, and Rez thought my nose was bleeding... o_O;;???)
Troy asked me what was wrong in the gym, and I don't know... I kinda started to cry when I tried to tell him... (That book made me cry, but it also brought back a lot of sad memories, so it made me cry even more...) LaDre thought that someone I knew died, and I said it was KINDA like that, and after a bunch of guesses and he couldn't find out who, he just went ahead and called me g@y... (Yeah, nice way of cheering someone up.)
But it kinda went away around lunch... Lunch, I kept switching back and forth between lines, so eh... @_@
We had to go to 1st period after lunch since TAKS messed up our regular schedules and stuff. I went to Science, and we were talking about the teacher's past, and he said that he looked like a dork when he was in his senior year... ^^;; (He said when he was in his sophmore year of high school, he fell off his bike and his two front teeth fell out.) He made a fake cry there, and Kinjal laughed. ^^;; (He said he had to get braces to fix it, and then put in the two front teeth a WEEK LATER school ended.)
So imagine you graduating high school, and you're missing your two front teeth. o_O;;
He also talked about wisdom teeth, and how you should get them removed when you're younger (when he said "younger", he meant "in your twenties" and Ashley went, "That's not young!") Well, if you get older, then they have to cut the teeth out of the BONE. UGH. Gross...
Well, how did the talk of teeth start? Well, the teacher gave us all peppermints!!! Hooray! XP (He got sad because there wasn't one left for him.) So Jasmin pulled out a bag of Poppin' Rocks and he wanted some, since he said he hadn't had any since he was 3. So they both ate the candy, and we could all hear fizzing in their mouths. XP He wanted to read the ingredients (he said "Don't worry, I won't eat them all" and pretended to dump them all in his mouth. XP)
He said it was made with carbon dioxide, and Merlin went "Doesn't that kill you?" He said that soda has carbon dioxide and it doesn't kill you. (He also said that if you pour soda on battery acid, it will DISSOLVE IT. o_O!!! And that's how some people clean leaking battery acid from their cars... o_O;;) Well, he said Powerade and Gatorade is even WORSE for you, because it damages your teeth. It dissolves the enamel (white outer part of teeth) OFF OF YOUR TEETH.
So really, Gatorade/Powerade isn't that better for you than soda...
And that's how we started talking about teeth. XP
In Social Studies, we watched "Madagascar", and AGAIN, Amit asked if he could pee over the teacher's desk so he could claim it as his territory. -_-;; She took a water bottle and sprayed him and he got angry, but sat down. XP
Later, when he tried to do bad things, she kept spraying him with water. XP (At first, I thought it was one of those cleaning solutions!!! XP)
He was like "Do I look like your toy?!" And she went "Dance, my puppet." (He almost did. XP)
Well, we still had to do worksheets during class. -_-;; Anna was crying in class today, but I didn't know why. Something about her not being serious...? Her boyfriend? Or the Algebra teacher...?
Well, tomorrow is Desire's (pronounced deh-zeh-ray) birthday and for her birthday, I gave her $5. And she replied, "Thank you!!! You're so sweet!" and she gave me a hug. XP
Also, Nicole asks when the Shiokaze-con was, and I promised to give her a Naruto headband. (It's next week, but I might not go... Wah.)
In Algebra, after getting our homework pages, the students talked to the teacher about his past jobs and stuff...
You see, he was a fashion designer, and he went everywhere, and he designed clothes for a ton of famous people and stuff, but he gave it up to be with his family... Isn't that sweet?
But he never expected himself to give that up and become a teacher. You see, in college, his "specialty" was economic. (Melinda thought of "home economics" as in cooking. XP)
Melinda went "We should have more chats like this." Kristen, Sara, and Paige all said that she only wanted to talk like that so she could get out of doing work in class... ^^;;
Well, after that, I headed home, and now I'm here. My parents hung a horse picture by the ceiling of the living room, and we're not going to the Riverwalk with Gwendolyn today... Aww...
Well, see ya later. Bye!

I Would've Posted Five Days Ago, But My Brother Killed the Computer!!!
Start: 6:10 PM CST
Hey guys!!! Yeah yeah... I haven't posted... GRR. I would've, but remember I told you my brother messed up the computer? Well, it caused even more problems, and I spent this ENTIRE week trying to fix it! Plus, I had TAKS test!!! GRR!!! (I've been so stressed!!!
So let's start with Saturday, eh?
Saturday
Well, this day, I didn't go anywhere until...1-3 PM? And my mom, me, and my sister went to the mall to go clothes shopping! XP But the moment I reached the mall, I started to sneeze a lot... I thought it wouldn't bother me, but I ran around the mall the entire time with a fever-like face, sneezing, and covering my nose... -_-;;
Oh, when we were in Foley's, I was with my sister and she kept looking through the girl's clothes... It's kinda weird how most shirts today are just regular shirts with printed words, eh? XP My sister found some Keroppi shirts and frog shirts and stuff... XP
We stopped by Sears too, and my sister wanted to buy more Hello Kitty/Happy Bunny shirts, but my mom wouldn't let her... -_-;; My mom said if she bought those and then washed them, they'll shrink. ^^;;
Well, I bought a pair of black jeans. XP Oh yeah! When I was picking out clothes with my sister, I saw Christian... At first, I didn't know who it was, but I turned around and saw him in a baseball cap. XP Well, I was gonna get a ton of other stuff at the mall, but my mom or sister kept saying it was ugly, too dark, too bright, etc. -_-;;
Oh yeah! My sister stopped by the boy's clothes' department because she wanted one of those shirts that said "Want to know how to keep an idiot busy? (Look at back)" And on the back it said "Want to know how to keep an idiot busy? (Look at front)" XP (My sister said she wants to buy more guy clothes... XP)
After that, we stopped by Wal-Mart to do some more shopping...
I got hungry by that time, and I wanted to stop by and buy something from McDonald's. XP My sister said she'll just buy me a soda. -_-;;
but my sister went into the book department and tried to look for "The Notebook"... (Her friend Kevin recommended it, but she slipped it that it wasn't such a "child's book" to read, if you know what I mean... o_O;;)
We bought some groceries, and my mom wanted to buy ice cream, but I told her if she bought that, and we stopped by McDonald's to eat, it would melt. So my mom gave me $10 and Diana and I went to go eat. (My mom wanted my sister to order because she needed more social skills. XP I ordered though, and she went "Hey! I was supposed to order!" Me: "Well, you were just standing there..." XP)
Oh yeah. When I went to go get the food, the person who worked there said "Sir, here's your food" and a woman grabbed the bag. o_O;; So after a while we ate, my mom came in, and we just sat there, and she got tired of looking at us eat, so she got a doughnut and ate it... XP
So when I got home, we had to get ready for church... (It started at 9 PM.) My sister and I were watching "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" on Disney Channel... And after a long wait for my parents to get ready, we headed towards church.
Well, my sister wanted to sit away from my parents and we did. But the woman on the left of my sister asked in Vietnamese that we go get candles. I asked the girl on the right where we could, and she said in the front of the church. I went (and Diana followed), and Ricky brought me two candles for both of us.
Oh, it was so cool. Well, I think it was the Stations of the Cross mass that day... All the lights in the church were turned off... Every single one of them. We were covered in darkness... And then, people with lighted candles passed on the fire to everyone, and it was pretty... A roomed filled with hundreds of candles... Just illuminating the church. It gave this religious feeling around the area, you know?
Well, the candles were blown out after a while, but for some reason, I kept holding onto my candle. o_O;; (Later, I did put it down. XP)
Now, I have to tell you... This mass was LONG. It lasted THREE HOURS... So it was from 9 PM to midnight. But I didn't mind...
Oh yes. There was a Baptism going on. (Easter is the best time to get baptized, or so I've heard. That is, if you want to convert.) But I heard some people in the row behind me saying "What are they doing?" "What is the point of this?" I also heard a bunch of stuff about them, and I wondered if they were Buddhist... Yeah, first of all, they were questioning the Catholic religion and didn't understand anything in it, second, they kept mentioning something about Buddha and stuff... And third, there were people that were converting.)
Well, it was cool watching all the baptisms... And we (Diana and I) even stayed 'til the end to watch all of them get baptized. But by the time we got out, it was...12:15 or 12:35 at midnight... o_O;; (My mom said she was tired because she spent the time that day shopping with Diana and I... ^^;;)
When we got home, I had a little bit of rice, watched some T.V., and decided to go to sleep around 1-2 AM... (My brother was on the computer!!! @_@!!!)
Easter Sunday
Yes yes... My dad woke me up around 9-10 AM and told me to get dressed to go to church.
At church, my whole family sat together this time. (My sister doesn't like to sit with my family because she thinks they're annoying and hates them all...except me. XP)
But when we got home, my parents asked if we wanted to go to an Open House party thing for one of their friends. I really wanted to go!!! My mom was about to not, because she needed to start cooking...
But my mom went. And guess what? I WANTED TO GO, BUT THE COMPUTER WAS STILL MESSED UP, SO I SPENT ALL THAT TIME TRYING TO FIX IT!!! (I never got it all fixed until...TUESDAY!!! *screams*) So I was stressed, bored, and a bit hungry...
Chi had a party at her house that day! It was her mom's birthday, and they were having a party... XP She bought her mom a water hourglass, but the little kids there kept fighting over it. XP I also chatted with her cousin "Anh". It was quiet at the end though because no one was really talking. Chi said there were lots of people, but a lot of food wasn't eaten. XP
Oh yeah! Trangie had her birthday party on Easter, but I couldn't go, since I don't live in P.A. anymore... But Trangie was worried since her boyfriend came to her house looking all messed up (hair and clothes, etc.) and he went to go hang out with Quang since the party didn't start yet. (Oh yeah! Out of...15 people, only her and her cousin Helen were girls! XP) Well, she also wanted to break the news to her parents that Rendy was her boyfriend, but she didn't know how to.
She did tell them, and they had a little chat. (He didn't come in though...)
My parents came home around...5-6 PM and they started to cook. They said they didn't get to eat a lot... XP (Haha, no, they didn't go to Chi's party. XP)
My brother wanted to get on the computer, and I let him. If I were to get all unstressed about fixing the computer, I had to get away from it. (So I went to go watch T.V., but he kept watching my sister play "Final Fantasy X"...)
Oh yeah... We had barbecue that day... Yum, pork ribs... XP It was good, and I just made the salad and stuff. (But now there are stains in the chairs!! GRR! You see, we have those chairs that have...fur or fabric on it, but it used to have a plastic wrap over it. Then, during Hurricane Rita, we let some people stay in our house, and their children TORE UP that plastic, and we haven't been able to fix that... -_-;;)
Monday
Oh yeah... We have TAKS this week, so we spent Monday preparing!!! For Science, we studied maps, and somehow, Ashley started talking about how she took this road because it doesn't have a lot of stop signs... (Where'd that come from...?)
Also, we had 60 questions to do on our Algebra TAKS book, and we had to transfer them to a sheet of paper, and turn it in... -_-;; (The problem was...the numbers were wrong. It went like this: 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10, etc. And it ended with 61, 62, 63, 64...) It missed four numbers, and it added four numbers at the end, which equal 60 slots, but it causes a problem on Wednesday... Read on to find out.)
Can't remember what else that happens!! GRR!!!
I came home that day being all stressed and trying to fix the MSN Messenger stuff. I even e-mailed those people who help you with fixing stuff online and EVEN THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO HELP ME!!! (THEY WORK THERE!!! GRR!!!)
Tuesday
When I woke up in the morning, I still tried to fix the computer. First thing I did: Delete all the registry keys associated with MSN Messenger and then uninstalled them. (It helps if you find out later...)
Well, that day, we had TAKS Math!!! GRR!!! Oh well. I ate lunch, and guess who I saw in the cafeteria? Troy, wearing a baseball cap, leather jacket, some silver cross chain, and etc. o_O;; (He doesn't normally dress like that... Is he trying to look gangsta or something...?) Oh yeah. He also told me he stocked his knapsack with food... ^^;;
You see, in this TAKS testing, we're not allowed to leave the room that day...EVER. Not even for lunch... Maybe restroom, but someone has to come with you. A teacher/adult, dur. XP
So to keep myself occupied, I check out "The Amber Spyglass", and I ran towards the check-out area, and one of the librarians told me to slow down and stop rushing... ^^;;
In there, it was quiet... No talking, really. The test was pretty easy. Except for this...EEP. *stares outside and sees a tall guy in a tree in a black suit and tie with black sunglasses and a gun*
You see, last year, at my old school, we weren't allowed to talk about the TAKS test, or ELSE. Something about the government saying that or something. (And I joked with my friends about that... XP Like, if we were talking about it, would someone from the government shoot us? XP)
They say that the TAKS test is one of the hardest state tests in the U.S. It's pretty easy though. They say somewhere along the way, Texas got noted as a "dumb state" or it got low in education, so they're toughening up education here. o_O;; (I was afraid, because if it was REALLY HARD and I didn't pass all 4 out of 4 tests, I COULD BE HELD BACK A YEAR!!!)
My Science teacher, Mr. Jacoby, told me the information above.
So for testing, I had Ms. Wallace again... After I finished the Math section, I took out "The Subtle Knife" and finished it! Then I took out "The Amber Spyglass" and got at least 1/4 of the book done.
So when it came to lunch, I chatted with Danny a bit... It was SO QUIET... Usually, it was loud at lunch... But we ate in our classrooms today, and no one talked.
P.S. Ms. Wallace keeps a microwave and refrigerator hidden in her classroom under a tablecloth. Hehe. XP (All the teachers came in just to heat up their lunches or something. XP)
Well, we had to go to 6th and 7th period that day...
Oh yes! I rushed to my locker and got my stuff, then rushed to Algebra. You see, I had to turn in that TAKS practice test, and for the first time, I saw my Algebra teacher wearing something casual. XP (You see, he's always wearing a suit or native Nigerian clothes, but never something casual. XP) He just took it from me like he was busy. XP Then I rushed off to English!
Our teacher, Ms. Spies made us do work!!! GRR... Angelie said that we were tired of doing work since we just got done with the TAKS test and stuff... But we have to turn in our Literary Fair papers in... Well, we KINDA worked on it, but I got lazy... I did turn in my A+ Strategy papers... And now I have to finish the second part...with 20 questions. (GRR, I'm lucky to make a 50 on that! It's already late... -_-;;)
Well, I got on the computer when I came home, and I reinstalled MSN Messenger, and IT WORKED!!! (My deleting-the-registry-keys idea worked!!!) Ah, I was so happy... But my own file kept messing up... o_O;;
I knew what I had to do. I had to delete my account on my computer. But first, I ran checks by making new account names such as Jigglypuff, Pikachu, and Raichu and stuff... XP But they messed up on me!!! (I finally moved ALL THE FILES ON MY ACCOUNT TO ONE SPOT ON THE COMPUTER.) I was really filled with eustress, but I don't know why. o_O;; (Eustress is happy stress, like the kind where you're waiting for a good thing to happen...) And when I deleted my account, it took a while... -_-;;
Oh yeah. My sister let me stay longer because she was really determined to finish "Final Fantasy X". XP
It was still taking long, so I watered the grass...
And when I came back, it was deleted, and I made a new account, and it was done!!!
On the file where I put all my stuff, it said it took up 1 million gigabytes or something like that...? o_O! Wow...
And then I transferred all that stuff to my file again...
Oh yes. I got really hyper and excited (I DON'T KNOW WHY!!!) that I started jumping around a lot and spinning... @_@??? (Yes, I lost my sanity!!!)
But it did reinstall all that stuff... And I'm happy I lost nothing. XP Except my Windows Media Player text is an ugly lime green now, and my Language Bar won't show the entire word on... @_@ (Ah, I stress over little silly things...) And so far, I found out that no one else does that... *screams* I HOPE I DON'T HAVE OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE DISORDER!!!
Okay, my Caps Lock is becoming a bit defective on me... o_O;;
Today/Wednesday
Well, I woke up today and took a shower and got ready and stuff... And I did a spyware-adware scan on the computer, just to be safe... So it scanned while I was showering... But it only scanned my account!!! GRR...
I went downstairs and saw my sister eating pineapples... And she left before me, and I came after.
Well, we had another TAKS test today. TAKS Reading!
I went to breakfast, and that annoying guy who wanted to cut himself with a razor from the 1st period Art class pointed to the guy behind me and said "That guy wants to go out with you." ("That guy" meaning the guy behind me, and "you" meaning "me". o_O;;)
WEIRD.
Well, I headed to Ms. Wallace's class again.
More testing, and for some reason, this year's TAKS English test is about sad stuff... Like, the Great Depression (personal stories and general ideas), survival stories, etc.
And after that, I read more of "The Amber Spyglass"... "His Dark Materials" is a good series! You should check them out!
Well, lunch came, and I chatted with Danny and we had a conversation about religion. He kept saying that Catholic religion has all these rules, and all those rules makes it hard to go to heaven and stuff like that... But really, in a way, Catholism and Buddhism are kind of the same...
Thomas wanted my pickle. (I ordered the sack lunch, and the first time he called me, he laughed, and I didn't know what he wanted. Then he asked if I was gonna eat my pickle, but I let him have it.)
All right, so I started reading "The Amber Spyglass" again, but the girls on the right of me were chatting, and it was hard not to laugh at the stuff they were talking about. XP (It kinda reminded me of our old group, with Alaina, and Ann, and Alexis, and etc.) One of the girls was demonstrating from a comedy show how a guy smashed his head through a T.V. (The idea came from a HDTV commercial. XP) I also learned that one of the girls there is Vietnamese/Hispanic, and I didn't realize it at first... o_O;;
Oh yeah. Danny asked why I was "dressed-out" that day. I was? I had a white shirt (with the collar and buttons down the middle) and black jeans with black tennis shoes. o_o???
Well, it was quiet that day... And then they called us to go to 1st period.
1st period. Our Science teacher said to tear out practice book pages from the books in the classroom and "pretend to do them". You don't have to do them, but make it look like you're doing it. XP (There was another teacher watching over us while our teacher went away, and he told Kinjal he would give her a 100 if she pretended to do it, and all you need to do is write your name, date, and period. XP)
The candy rock crystals are growing, but Ruth said there was a bug in the yellow solution. o_O;; (It seemed like it at first, but later, I started to think it was mold or something.)
Well, Jasmin had a paper about what to do to your girlfriend, and Taylor wanted to copy it down so she could give it to her boyfriend, and she let me do it, since I had neat handwriting. I never finished it though... ^^;;
Oh yeah. Jasmin dropped it in class and I gave it back to her...
Social Studies was okay, I think. We WERE gonna watch "Madagascar", but Amit had to be crazy and lie down on the floor, pretend he was peeing it in it to mark his territory, and "doing it" to himself... (The teacher turned off the movie and we had to do vocabulary...)
It wasn't that bad, really. Oh yeah. We talked about stuff. Like what we did in the classrooms during TAKS testing. Oh yeah! Kinjal said that she was a cool teacher, but she was mean to Amit because he got on her nerves. It reminded me of the time when Amit said "Why can't you be like Mr. Jacoby?" (That's my Science teacher.) She said "I'm not a man..." And Amit responded "Can you be a man for me?" (What a weird question... XP)
So when we went to Algebra, the teacher was really stressed... (I could tell. He was yelling at us for simple questions we asked him. -_-;;) He gave us back our papers (the practice TAKS test) and made us erase it all, cross out the numbers and rewrite them all... @_@ I did get to do it all though... I talked to Paige, Melinda, Sara, and a few other people.
I read Melinda's manga. She had "The Nightmare Before Christmas" (yes, there's a manga!) and "Tenshi Muyo". The teacher turned on the T.V. and we watched "Fear Factor"... XP (There was a point when the guy had to dig for worms, blend them in a blender, and drink it... XP That just made Sara sick and gag... -_-;;)
Dexter also brought a Bible, and other people were reading it and stuff like that...
Then Aaron made the weirdest comment. He noticed that on my shirt, the first button wasn't buttoned in. He said when people do that, it means they're trying to look sexy. o_o;; (Weird comment from a boy...) I told him I didn't realize that it was unbuttoned and just buttoned it back up. (Later, it choked my neck, so I unbuttoned it. ^^;;)
But Melinda said I looked like a person that just came out of a manga. XP
Oh yeah... Jereme wants a picture of me... You see, she's been asking since...last Wednesday, but I haven't had the time to find a picture. Also, I hardly take pictures of myself, so I really don't have any... -_-;;
So when I got home, my dad was installing some black screens to our windows, and I went to my sister and enjoyed some cheesecake my mom's friend had given her... XP
And so far, that's about all I've done.
See ya!

JESUS DIED AT 3 PM TODAY!!! AND I MISSED IT!!!
The Beginning: 3:27 PM CST
Hey guys!!! I'm on break because of Good Friday, but enough about that. Do you know why we get off for Good Friday? Well, it's Holy Week in the Catholic calendar, and Jesus died at 3 PM today!!! (Well, about 1960 years ago, he did.)
They say if you pray the Novena (which is kinda like praying the Catholic rosary, about 50+ prayers) a miracle will happen. Or was it anything you wished for will come true...? It's one of those.
And I missed it!!! I promised myself I would be there to see anything weird at 3 PM, and I missed it!!! *cries* Also, I don't think the Novena would work right now... It's almost 3:30 PM... But Chi said I should try it out.
But my mom wants to take me to the mall... o_O;;
What should I do??? Go pray and go see a miracle...or keep typing this post...?
Ah what the heck. I'm gonna keep typing. (What a horrible Catholic I am!!!)
Okay, I'll be right back then... -_-;;
Left: 3:30 PM CST
Returned: 3:32 PM CST
Well, we WERE gonna go to the mass at 3 PM, but my dad got busy with fixing a door... -_-;; And my mom's checking the schedule... (It's past 3 PM already!!! *cries*)
They also say at 3 PM is when the spirit world is most vunerable...but eh. (That's just some random information for ya. XP)
Thursday
Well, there's not much I can actually remember for this day... Let's think. Tra li la di da...
Well, in Health, we finally got our dance stuff papers done...kinda. You see, we had to break up into teams (you can only have up to 4 people) and you sign your names on a form and you have to think of a group name (optional) and I WAS gonna be with Fareed, O'Shane, and Mark, but I went with Eric (he's okay) and Andrew (NOO!)...
Ugh, I just know he's gonna mess the grade up. -_-;; So now we have to find 3-4 songs (any kind, as long as it's appropriate) and we have to do a choreographed song...
In Art, we did more watercoloring, and after class, I saw that Christina and Paulisha were friends again. (Hooray! Or did they make up a long time ago already...? o_O?)
In ELA, I got so confused with the work and I have a TON of homework stuck...IN EASTER!!! (Oh my gosh, how am I supposed to do 20+ pages of work on EASTER?!?!)
When I got home, I started to fix around the computer a bit more to make sure there weren't more viruses and junk on the computer... So far, it looks good, but it's a TAD bit laggy. Or was it always like that...? o_O?
Well, on the bus, I said "Happy Birthday" to Precious. She also left a hair accessory on the bus, but I gave it back to her. I was gonna give her something for her birthday, but when I called her, I guess she didn't hear me. o_O;;
Well, I went on the computer for a bit to talk to Chi. (OH YEAH!!! When we were getting ready for church, my sister got the song "Yes Lord" stuck in my head!!! @_@!!!)
Well, after that, my whole family had to go to church, since that day was the day of the Last Supper. XP
My sister did a ton of funny stuff during the ride to church.
"TOMORROW, GOD IS GONNA KILL US ALL AND TURN US INTO SHEEP!!! MUAHAHAHAHA!!! I'M NOT CRAZY, I'M NOT CRAZY... MUAHAHAHAHA!!!" (When she was saying "I'm not crazy", she kept rocking herself back and forth in fetal position... ^^;;)
Haha, when we were in church, my sister wanted to sit separate of our family. But I THOUGHT I saw my mom and ran up to the seat where she was, until my sister said "That's not our mom." (I believed her, but I still thought it was my mom. XP)
Have you ever, like, looked at someone from the back, and it looks like a person you know? Like, same hairstyle, same skin color, the clothes that you know that person has, etc.? Well, that's exactly what happened!!! ^^;;
Well, church was good... The Stations of the Cross... I didn't EXACTLY see them do it. But they were holding candles! (They WERE doing it, but kinda unorthodox, okay. XP) Yeah, I saw Andy with a candle. (He was an altar server.)
Well, after church, my family went to go eat pizza. My sister got more church songs stuck in my head... XP (Also, I learned I like to sing harmonics. XP)
Well, my dad turned the wrong way on the highway and ended up going, like, miles the wrong way that the pizza place was at. ^^;; (My mom said that she didn't tell my dad because if she did, he would yell at her. ^^;;)
OH MY GOSH... RIGHT BEFORE WE REACHED THE PIZZA PLACE, there was a CAR that was stuck in the middle of the road!!! Kinda... You see, there was a car that wanted to take a turn, and behind it, there was another car that wanted to take a turn too. But the problem was. You know how there's a lane for turning? Well, that second car turned so much, it ACTUALLY COVERED TWO LANES!!! (One for turning, and one for going straight... o_O;;) And my dad was going really fast... (It was 60-80 mph?) and we almost collided with the "tail" of the car. ^^;; Really, I think he was too busy arguing with my mom to even pay attention to the road. o_O;;
Gosh, that was scary. I asked my sister to hold my hand. ^^;;
Well, when we went to go eat pizza, we thought it was still open, but it turns out they were about to close... Wah. We just got there. We did order and stuff and I ate a little bit, but they stopped making pizzas and stuff. They said you could custom order the pizza for yourself. XP (WEIRD!!! One woman order an apple pizza for her daughter and another person put chocolate on their pizza! Along with some meat and vegetables... o_O;;)
Fun Question: If you could put ANYTHING you wanted on a pizza, what would you put on it? (It can even be weird things like chocolate and apples! Haha.)
After that, I went back to the computer and did more cleaning and chatted with Chi, Dai, and their cousin "Anh". Well, "Anh" is a rapper, and Dai wanted to rap too. XP It was soo cute! XP I even tried it myself... ^^;; So somehow, Chi went crazy and killed Dai and I brought Dai back to life by stuffing Fawkes (phoenix from "Harry Potter") down her throat... o_O;; Then I made Dai unconcious again by slamming a wand into Dai's head... o_O;; But she woke up again and "Anh" and Dai started rapping and I followed suit and then I knocked Dai unconcious again and then she killed me by dropping a LARGE jellybean on me. o_O;;
I named the talks with Vicky and Alaina "Poop and Crack Talks" and I now christen the talks with Chi and Dai (the weird ones of course) "Jellybean Chats"... Well, because of that giant jellybean killing me of course. XP
It reminds me of the time when Dai killed me by freezing me, setting me on fire, and then cutting off my head... Good times, good times... XP
Oh yes. I also drew around that time and I have decided to work on my "Chibi Chibi Land" again! Except they might not be in chibi-form... o_O;; (I might have to change the name. Eep.)
And then I went to sleep at 1 AM.
Friday/Today
Well, in the morning, my dad and mom left us to go...somewhere.
IT'S 4 PM!!! IT'S TOO LATE NOW!!!
Question: Have you felt weird today around the times of noon to 3 PM? If so, what feeling did you have that made it feel...different?
Well, anyways, today, I woke up and just drew and watched the ending of "Kingdom Hearts II". Just when you think it's over, it's not. XP
And I stayed with my sister for a while and watched her play MapleStory...
But that was it.
I got hungry, so I started to cook up some pasta, and then my parents came home!!! (Around 11 PM, yeah.) They started to cook, but they did it outside. (My mom doesn't like to cook seafood inside the house. She says it makes it smell... ^^;;)
Yes. It's Good Friday, and we have to fast. I mean, not eat meat. But this is the last one... (I never followed my sacrifice... *cries*)
So that pasta? Yeah, I finished it. But it always makes me steam my glasses when I pour it out. XP
But I messed up on the sauce... -_-;; (I let it get TOO thick, and it somehow formed into something else. o_O;;)
And then I helped my mom clean up a fan... (It a moving fan from our old house and it's gotten quite dusty.) So I spent a lot of time talking to her and helping her clean. It's weird, but even helping to clean a fan can make you bond with your parnets. XP
Oh yeah... My mom wanted me to open up her e-mail and to respond to the new ones... But there was something I read in my mom's e-mail from one of her friends that made me curious... I asked my mom to tell me what it meant, and she did, and it ended up making me cry... Maybe I shouldn't have asked... And I'm sorry, but I can't tell you what it is...
But I will give you some sort of meaning... Have you ever had that feeling where you were alone in the world, and no one was there to care for you? That's the emotion I felt, and I almost burst into tears... (I turned my rolling chair back to cover my face...)
Everyone deals with a ton of bad things, some more than others. But no matter who someone is, even if their life seems happy, there's always something bad that they're hiding.
...
Oh what am I doing? Scaring you and making you feel all...bleh. XP Well, so far, that's all that's happened. I'm glad I could type a BIT of it out. Well, bye bye! ^^
The Death: 4:09 PM CST
Actually, he died at 3 PM. So why'd I type "death"? I dunno. o_O;;

I Went To JAM, But Got Bitten By Mosquitoes!
Start: 10:30 PM CST
Hey guys!!! I REALLY NEED TO UPDATE SOONER!!! GRRR!!! I would've, but I needed to go to church, and somehow, my brother downloaded these bunches of adware and stuff and I just finished getting rid of them all!!! I hope... o_O;; (EVERYTIME THE COMPUTER MESSES UP, IT'S ALWAYS HIS FAULT!!!)
WHAT KIND OF SITES DOES HE GO TO?!
Well, I guess I have to tell you about yesterday too. -_-;;
Tuesday
In Science, Kinjal thought the teacher walked into class crying... ^^;; She asked what was wrong, and he started to fake-sob that he asked his girlfriend if he could marry her, and she rejected... XP She was like, "Are you serious?!" (Like she sounded happy. XP But he was just joking around... XP) And somehow, we got into the conversation of Hurricane Rita... And the teacher was telling us that he only traveled 70 miles in 10 hours... o_O;; And all that time, he couldn't use the restroom. So he was just staring out at the long stretches of traffic and going "I am going to die out here..."
If I could remember more, I'd type it out, but I can't. (GRR, you got lucky today!!! XP)
Wednesday/Today
Well, in Science today, we had a Jeopardy game against the other Science class (Ms. Shaw) and I was the spokesperson, and for the other team, Georhan was their spokesperson. They all went "Aww... We're gonna lose" when they saw Georhan as the leader. ^^;; Well, our team won, and Kinjal congratulated me, and so did Paulisha later.
There was a point where when they wanted us to do Double Jeopardy, and Ramon, the scorekeeper, tried to bribe me with $2 to do it. ^^;;
Oh yeah. Latissa was the person who did all the question-clicking on the computer and stuff. She's nice.
OH YEAH. When I didn't do that Double Jeopardy, Georhan threatened to beat me up in Math. ^^;; (He never did though. XP)
Well, Ms. Shaw's class seemed like an eager bunch to learn, even though they kinda didn't seem like it at first. XP
Well, in Algebra, we somehow got into the question of cereal brands. And the teacher started talking about how little kids would choose the cereal with the pretty pictures on the boxes instead of how it tastes. XP And how parents would fall into their child's lure when they would cry or throw a tantrum to get something. Child psychology, eh. XP
In Health, there was mostly working-out and running laps...
In Art, we finally started watercolor! It was fun trying all the stuff, and I can't wait we do the real watercolor. Yeah, we're just practicing techniques right now. XP
In ELA, the whole class complained and we somehow ended up with a ton of work...and I haven't started on ANY. o_O;; Well, we did head to the library and I looked through the computer for a book to find, but couldn't find the one I wanted to. So I just kept reading "The Subtle Knife".
Well, when I came home, I ate, and after that, I went to use the computer, and I saw that the computer was messed up!!! (GRR! MY BROTHER'S BEEN DOING WEIRD THINGS TO IT!!!) At first, I thought my dad did it, so I yelled at him, and my dad got angry and hit me... -_-;;
Well, it was my brother, AND I HATE WHEN HE DOES THIS!!! HE MESSES THINGS UP, AND THEY EXPECT ME TO FIX IT!!! (Even though I do in the end...) BUT STILL!!! I HAVE MORE BETTER THINGS TO DO!!!
So it took me an hour...or something. My mom was about to take me shopping, but my parents wanted to take us all to church... Oy. And I was just doing a bunch of scans on the computer. GRR.
But church really calmed me down. JAM was ready, but everyone was outside, and I thought JAM wasn't then today. I thought the Stations of the Cross was today, but I asked Jennifer, and she said it was tomorrow.
I talked to Kevin for a while, but then Na Nhi and Chi came. XP I never expected for Chi to come. XP Oh yeah. And Elyssa and her...boyfriend??? @_@??? Well, at first, we were cramped into a small room since we couldn't use the regular room since mass was going on. Oh yeah! There was a white guy in our classroom, and he was friends with one of the TAs. We did singing, but after that, that guy said "Man, I wanted to hear you guys sing in your language." XP Jennifer also said "Rise my children..." o_O;;
Then we went outside and we got markers and paper and we had to write 5 things that were important in our lives... Jennifer said not to lie or God would strike us with lightning. Her EXACT WORDS: "You better not lie, or God's gonna strike you with lightning. That's why we're outside! Hehe, there's gonna be lots of barbecue tonight..." (o_O!!! *laughs* Yeah, she's gonna eat us. XP)
Lots of praise and worship and stuff... But the mosquitoes were really annoying! I got bit a lot... And during prayer, I couldn't stay still... But others couldn't either. ^^;;
Oh yeah! At the end, we started to do more singing, and they showed the Missouri pictures on a projector!!! Haha, TA Eddie was dressed up as a superhero??? XP And the lead guitarist guy was dressed up as a woman, and Jennifer was the devil... XP Lots of group photos, and they were gonna show embarrassing Mimi moments, but I missed that. XP
Oh yeah! Quang was eating a light saber toy... o_O;; There were also lots of pictures of them sleeping... ^^;; (One guy had a pink pillow with him. XP)
Most of the pictures were funny, and Chi and I just busted out laughing in some of them. XP
So we had to join hands in prayer. Chi and I held hands, and Elyssa touched my back. XP Ah, but all that time during praying, I couldn't help but scratch a bit. EVIL MOSQUITOES!!!
Oh yeah. Elyssa said she had to leave during that time because her mom came to pick her up... Is that really true...? o_O??? (Read next paragraph.)
When Diana and I were walking out towards the parking lot, we saw a couple making out smack-dab in the parking lot!!! @_@!!! (OH MY GOSH!!! It was Elyssa and that boy! At first, I thought it was her brother or something. o_O;;) But she saw me by my parent's van, and they stopped making out. ^^;;
Well, Chi went home, and I did later after my parents finished talking with their friends...
Now I'm here, and I'm kinda finished fixing all the stupid stuff my brother did to the computer!!! (I kill myself from doing this... -_-;;)
Well, bye bye.

Posting Daily! (And There's a Vietnamese Sandwich Downstairs!!!)
The Beginning: 6:51 PM CST
Hello everyone! I'll make this quick as possible. I'll try to keep it fun too. XP
Well, you see, I was doing my laundry around midnight, and my mom came in and yelled at me for not doing it during the weekend and waiting until when everyone was asleep to turn on a loud washing machine. ^^;; (My mom finished it for me in the day...)
Well, when I was waiting in the gym in the morning, I heard someone call me a "damn Chinese" person... o_O;; (How racist! There are a ton of racist people in my school! For example, there are these group of black peoples at my school who are racist to whites, Asian, Hispanics, and Africans. When I mean "Africans", I mean they're of African descent, as in native-born or their parents were. Those black people don't consider themselves "African" for some reason... o_O;;)
Well, in History, I was sent to the Counselor's office because they wanted me to turn in my Hightower schedule. So I chose...Speech and Piano??? Speech is a REQUIRED course, so I'll get that done with. I'll take Piano because it's new, and I need Art credit too, so it's a both-win situation... ^^ So Nohemi, Christian, and I were waiting in the office for a few minutes, just staring at stuff and talking, etc. Nohemi said Christian changed because he says "bless you" when someone sneezes. (I think I did that to him. o_O;; I started that in this school, and everyone just got used to saying it. XP)
Oh yes! I started a survey!!! It's a survey on what religion you are, why you follow it, etc. I only got three people to do it though. (One person who wants to remain anonymous said "Gays suck" on the question "Thoughts about your religion". What does that have to do with his religion...? o_O???)
Well, in Health, I didn't have my uniform since I was washing it and my mom never let me finished, so eh. So basically all throughout that period, I was wearing my regular clothes and I was walking alone. It was really peaceful, and no one to bother me. Well, I was wrong. Three guys (a racist white guy at my school, and two blacks) were arranged around me (left, behind me, and the right of me) and they kept being racist around me, speaking fake Chinese and all that stuff... -_-;; So in this little fake Chinese accent, that white guy starts asking me if I wanted to touch his "body parts"... (OKAY, THESE GUYS NEED HELP.)
Oh yeah. One of the black guys said "Don't worry. We won't mess with you. But I want to ask, are you gay?" (OKAY, WHAT IS HIS PROBLEM?! THEY START ACTING GAY AROUND ME AND THEY ASK IF I WAS?!?!) I told him "no", but he said "You don't have to lie. I mean, the way you talk and walk, and even the way you cross your hands."
T_T... So if I cross my hands, I'm gay?
They need help. And I wasn't lying... T_T
Oh yeah... A bunch of those popular guys and their "posse" and other people were walking around, and they picked up a grasshopper with a shirt, and they were SO SCARED OF IT!!! (It's a GRASSHOPPER, for goodness sake!) There was a little kid saying "Don't kill the grasshopper!" (Fareed whispered "I hate people that like animals...") But really, they're so afraid of them. Someone screamed "I'll pay $1 for anyone that touches it!!!" They also tried to feed it to giant ants, and then they tried to throw it on a girl. -_-;; (How immature. XP)
Well, before lunch, I headed towards the library and checked out "The Subtle Knife". I FINALLY GET IT!!! (Actually, I came in to check out "Old Glory", but I found out that was a short story. XP) Oh yeah!!! That girl...I finally recognized her! She rides my bus!!! (There was a girl on my bus and I kept looking at her, and I just realized she worked at the library.)
In Art, I saw that Melissa wasn't here, and I said "I miss Melissa". Then Paulisha said "I think you and Melissa should go out." My expression: o_O;; I mean, I like her, but as a friend! Paulisha said we would make a cute couple... o_O;; (Oh yes! I finished my piggy whistle pot! It's so cute!!! ^^)
Hmm... In ELA, Laura got angry at Nuzrat because her mom took up Laura's phone and she got cursy and stuff like that. (Nuzrat's mom's a teacher, so you know.) Well, class was all right that day... Oh yeah! During transition, I was walking towards class, and I walked up to Tia and said "Hi Tia. Hi person." That Hispanic girl that hangs out with Genesis (A.K.A. Person) looked and me and asked Tia "Is he your boyfriend?" My expression: 0_0 Well, Tia just started blushing and she said "Aww! How cute! You're blushing!" (But really, we're just friends! ^^)
Oh yes! On the bus today, there was a truck that somehow got upside because it crashed... So we were going that way, and there was no way for us to turn back. Some people were even thinking of walking home!!! @_@!! Oh yeah! Some people were screaming "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!" I told Precious "People think we're gonna die from this." Precious retold that to Chelsea and Chelsea went "WE ARE GONNA DIE!!!" (Wow... o_O;;)
Some people even thought we were gonna be on the news... XP And there was even a fight between two girls on the bus, but it didn't last long. ^^;; (So we did manage to get out, but imagine a bus reversing through a long, narrow street close by the highway. ^^;; Looks weird, yeah? It was. XP)
Well, now I'm here, and I have nothing to do. Trangie still has relationship issues with Rendy. Seems like he's cheating on her. And I'm about to go do a drawing...with pastels!!! (Diana just rediscovered our art supplies!!! ^^)
Well, see you later. Bye! ^^
The Ending: 7:17 PM CST

I'm Demonic... I Skipped Four Days!
Start: 6:09 PM CST
Hey guys!!! It seems like I torture you guys, making me read my long posts every day... -_-;; (But some of you find it exciting, and I can't figure out why. ^^;;)
Thursday (Scary, eh?)
OH YEAH! Did I tell you? On Wednesday, at the gym in the morning, Mr. Gonzalez was talking to a kid in the bleachers to sit down, but the kid needed to put his belt on. He kept telling the kid to sit down, but the kid kept saying he needed to put his belt on. So the teacher got ANGRY and PUSHED THE KID DOWN. Then they got into a fight...
And now, Mr. Gonzalez is being sued by that boy's parents... (And I've heard that he got angry about it that he put us in structured lunch to take it out on us?)
OH YEAH! If he is found guilty, he could lose his job!!!! Anyways...
Well, in Science, we learned how to exterminate termites!!! (My Science teacher used to do everything!!! Exterminator, glasses seller, and etc., and now he's a teacher!) Well, when he would enter a house to exterminate, little kids would run up to him and scream "IT'S THE BUGMAN!!!" (He even impersonated those kids in a high-pitched voice. XP) He even compared himself to Dale from "King of the Hill"... XP
He said if you look behind your showercap, there should be some kind of hole or opening right there... And if you open it and you see tubes of mud (which is really feces) you have termites. OH YES! If you also see white guys (he even said "Not white guys like ME"), meaning termites, then that's what they look like. XP
Oh yeah. How creepy would that be? This CAN HAPPEN. Imagine yourself in the shower, and you're turning the shower head on, and suddenly, TERMITES START RAINING ON YOU!!! (He impersonated that, and he even did it with a high-pitched voice... XP Creepy. XP)
Note: Bedbugs look like crabs...and I mean the STD crabs, not the crab-seafood kind. (What did that have to do with termites? I dunno, but that's what he told us.)
In Health, Danny called an MP3 player a 3 PM player. o_O;;
Oh yes! In ELA, it was funny... The teacher kept laughing, and we kept laughing, even though we don't know what we were laughing about, and then Yomilet let out her "funny laugh" and our teacher burst into more laughter... XP
Also, Jonathan took Kleenex and made a little moustache of himself and said he looked like the General from KFC! XP The teacher said since he did that, he would have to walk ALL THE WAY OUT TO THE BUS AND NOT TAKE IT OFF! XP (She was kidding though. XP) Oh yeah! Bao said he was a plantation owner and Jonathan was one of his slaves and he picks his cotton and etc. (The teacher laughed and said "Is this some kind of History project or something???")
Oh yeah... On Friday, it was National Grab Day. It was a day where people could grab each other's butts... o_O;; (Our Science teacher told us if he were to do that, he would get in jail.) The principal even told us on the announcements that it was a silly holiday and anyone caught doing it will be getting detention, suspended, etc. (But at my sister's school, girls were covering their butts. ^^;;) (Wait... This was Friday!)
Well, Anita came in during class with another girl and said "I forgot what I came in here for." The teacher laughed. So after a bit, Anita hit that other girl and said "LET'S GO!" The other girl said "OW! YOU'RE MEAN!!!" (They both walk out of the classroom.) Anita: "SHUT THAT DOOR!" Other Girl: "YES MA'AM!!!" (Anita and that girl are the same age, but Anita is mean...and strict. XP)
Friday
If only I could remember what I did this day... Why didn't I write it down?! *screams and bites himself*
O_O;; I hear "One-Winged Angel" in the background... I think my brother's playing "Kingdom Hearts II"... (Kinda weird... It matches the mood right now. XP)
Saturday
Well, I was in bed, and I heard my mom screaming that I had to get ready for the orthodontist appointment... Ahh... (Well, I still stayed in bed for like, half an hour and then woke up.)
So when I was getting ready, my mom was yelling to come down, so I got rushed a bit. ^^;;
Soo... Driving to the office. When we got there, I got my braces tightened on the top, and I got to choose my color. The assistant always jokes around and when she asks, she says "What color do you want?" I kinda start looking through the colors, and she suggests "Pink?" XP
After that, we stopped by H.E.B. to buy groceries... All while the store, my sister kept talking to produce!!! She picked up a papaya and said "What fruit is this? I don't know. Well, Baby Papaya, I will take you and bring your kind into extinction!!!" (o_O;;) She also kept playing with a Portabella mushroom. XP
And she was screaming that I was Santa Claus in the meat section... ^^;; And she said "SANTA CLAUS?! HOW COME YOU ARE NOT MELTING?!" I said "SANTA CLAUS ISN'T A SNOWMAN!!!" She's like "YOU'RE SNANTA!"
Me: WHAT?!
Diana: YOU'RE A SANTA SNOWMAN!!!
I don't know... Just all the way through the shopping, we bursted into laughter. XP
Ah yes. When we got home, I played Ragnarok Online with Chi. OH YEAH!!! When I died, she stepped on my face!!! o_O!!!
Here's a replay.
Me: *laughs* *chokes* *dies*
Chi: MUAHAHAHA!!! *steps on Travis' face while laughing evilly*
Me: Hey!!! You did that to me yesterday!!!
So you know, this chat just happened right now. XP
Well, I stayed home and ate and played. Kinda boring.
Oh yeah! I made macaroni and cheese, but it messed up, so in order to "fix" it, my mom added starch. (WHO PUTS STARCH IN CHEESE?!)
Oh well. Later that night, my sister and I watched "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind"... Cool anime. It's old-styled, but still good. ^^
Sunday
I was awakened by my dad and rushed to get ready for church!!! (For breakfast, I ate sherbert. XP)
Hmm, for mass, I got a palm leaf!!! I kept holding it during mass, and mass stretched to one hour and a half today... XP
Well, we were gonna go to McDonald's for lunch, but the parking lot was being jammed and my dad said it would take two hours to get out... (NO IT WOULDN'T!!!) Well, my mom gave me $20 to buy food, but I didn't take it... My dad started getting all angry/tempermental on me, so I just dropped the money on the parking lot pavement and ran off to the church...
Well, I sat with my sister, but left my stuff there, and I went to go play my "Rainy Sky" song... ("Rainy Sky" is a piano solo I made by myself. It's pretty!!! ^^ If we ever meet, I'll play it for you. XP) Andy thought it was nice, and Anna and Kim came over to play.
But Peter (I think that's his name) came and kicked us off the piano and took some little boys' GameBoys... (Andy calls him a killjoy. And Peter's somewhere in his late 20s to early 30s, I think.)
Well, I went outside and ate fried rice and a Pepsi. Oh yes! Andy ate with me! Then my brother Ricky came in and he brought in fried chicken! I took a thigh...
THEN, a boy came in!!! OH MY GOSH!! SOMEONE THREW A ROCK AT A LITTLE BOY'S HEAD AND IT WAS BLEEDING!!! A bunch of old ladies came, cleaned up his wound, and put a band-aid over it. (Good thing Andy carries a first aid kit everywhere he goes. That's helpful too, but he says people laugh at him for doing that.)
Wait. Are you supposed to put a band-aid on your hair? I thought it was something serious because it was dripping blood all over his face, and his eyes look like they were about to roll over. o_O;; (He didn't fracture his skull, did HE?!) But I'm glad he didn't. ^^
Nani came over and we talked. She still calls me "Hightower Buddy". XP
Well, after eating and etc., I went to class! I brought the fried rice with me! XP So during class, I was moving my books (my fried rice container was UNDER my book), the fried rice slipped off the table and fell on the floor!!! I thought it didn't break or anything, but when I moved it, fried rice went EVERYWHERE... -_-;;
So yeah, I had to clean it up. Lac-Hong gave me her homework to clean it up with. (Why her homework?) She was like "Poor Travis. You're like a maid..." She thought Cynthia was being mean to me and started saying "Stop bossing him around! He's already a maid!" (When was I ever a maid? Oh yes. Sue. ^^;;)
After that, I met up with Nickkie and Sue by the holy water area, and Chi got confused with her words and I thought she said she was stalking Nickkie while she was sleeping... o_O;; But Nickkie lost her community service hours paper, and she has to REDO THEM ALL OVER!!! (So she was working in the kitchen since 5 AM... Poor her.)
Well, Confirmation today... It was Palm Sunday, and we learned a bunch of stuff! Really interesting! (I was still carrying my palm leaves everywhere... XP)
Sonny did a joke, but no one understood it. I did, but it was kinda dumb. ^^;; Pope John Paul II has local distance on his telephone with God. XP (That was the answer. ^^;;)
Well, we played a game and we had to match up the information on Holy Week with the charts on the board. OH MY GOSH, IT WAS CREEPY! PEOPLE GOT RAMMED AND SLAMMED INTO THE WALLS JUST TO PLAY THIS GAME!!! (Chi got rammed once, I got twice. XP) Oh yeah. Jennifer was like "Now, I don't want to see any bloodshed on the floor here." (Someone on the audience screamed "YES WE DO!!!") Someone even hammered the walls with the information with their hands... o_O;; (Bloodthirsty trivia game here. Oy.)
Okay, after that, and a long talk from TA Jonathan, we left class very late. XP With a long prayer too. XP Oh yes. There was a priest watching us the whole time... He's not from our church...
Oh yes. For your information, purple is the color of pain... Not black. (You know who I'm talking to.)
Well, Diana and Dai came in. For all this time they've been waiting for us, Diana has been killing bees, and Diana and Dai have been covering them up with sweet rice and melted marshmallows. o_O;;
Wow... What weird fun they have. XP Then we separated...
Oh yes. We stopped at Fun-Plex and we only played $4 worth of DDR, but our parents ran off of us and we ran throughout the WHOLE ARCADE!!! (The top arcade is pretty...but spooky.)
Now, imagine this. A Victorian-styled house that looks clean...but there's no one in it. No furniture, nothing. And it's pitch dark... And when you're in it, you get this weird sensation as if it were cold... And there were mirrors everywhere. o_O (First thing that ran through my head: Haunted House.)
Really, that part of the arcade hadn't been used in years I figured, so yeah. But why a Victorian-styled arcade? I have NO IDEA. XP
After that, we went home, and I've been chatting to Chi about "Chobits" and Kai and online gamings and people who date online can't get real guys/girl in real life and stuff like that.
Oh yeah! Danny just came online for a bit to download MP3s to his iPod, so we chatted. He's not very religious or patient, and can't stand being in a temple or church for even 10 minutes. (And I told him I was in church for 6 hours and he was all like "HOW CAN YOU STAND THAT?!" But really, church is fun to me. XP)
Well, I have to get off now. Bye!

Life Is Becoming More Boring...
Start: 7:03 PM CST
Hey guys. I'm sorry, but I don't really feel like posting nowadays. But I'm gonna try to get on as much as I can... I just hope I don't quit MyOtaku...
Well, so far, nothing good's been happening...
In the morning, I sat by Troy, Andrew, and Jack in the bleachers and they were yelling at each other as always... I'm still planning out the wings for the next anime convention, but I'm afraid that they'll be too heavy. Troy says they won't, but I'm gonna put a ton of feathers on them...and adding up, they're not so light anymore.
Oh yeah! My dad came home last night.
In Health, we did some laps, and while I was running, Andrew/Sai was talking to me, and he says I'm always optimistic. (Well, isn't that a good thing?) He says I should AT LEAST HATE SOMETHING. (Why would I? I mean, OF COURSE I HATE STUFF, who doesn't? But why should I always be angry, etc.?)
And he says you can't like day and night... OH MY GOSH. SO I CAN'T LIKE DAY AND NIGHT OR MORE THAN ONE COLOR?! HOW STUPID IS HE...? He's one of those guys who thinks pain and suffering is so "cool"... Enjoyable, and he can't wait for death. No, he's not goth/emo... He's more of a RETARD.
He calls me weird because I'm so optimistic... YEAH, I'M BEING CALLED WEIRD BY A GUY THAT RUNS AROUND THE SCHOOL SCREECHING LIKE A MONKEY BECAUSE A VIDEO GAME COMES OUT. (Ugh.)
I need to stay away from him, and if I catch him on my site, I'm gonna give him a nice ol' hug! XP (BELIEVE ME, I KNOW WHEN YOU'RE ON MY SITE...)
GRR. Anyways:
I think I'm gonna shut off my site... Well, maybe delete it. I dunno.
Well, in Health, we also had to check our vertical jump. I can't jump and touch the backboard... ^^;;
In Art, Melissa and I sat together and made our whistle pots. Devon kept going around saying how he couldn't believe that we put our mouths on the clay. -_-;; (The teacher said "Hundreds of kids have done it! DEAL WITH IT!")
In ELA, there was nothing to do, except take notes from the H.R. 4437... Oy.
In the bus today, there were a bunch of people throwing paper balls at each other, and when it stopped for a while, there was this ONE GUY THAT KEPT THROWING PAPER BALLS EXACTLY AT ME!!! (Three larges one. ^^;; Oh well. It doesn't matter. It's just paper.) But no one cared that I got hit with large ones... They went "OOH!" for a while and wondered who got hit. But they didn't know it was me. o_o;;
But basically, the whole floor was swamped with paper balls... (Charlie says the other bus driver will be pissed off... XP Oh yeah. We had a sub for our bus today.)
Well, nothing much. My parents were out of town at P.A., but they came back. Now there's nothing to do.
Bye.

R.I.P. Alexis's Grandfather...
Start: 7:00 PM CST
Hey guys. I'm really sad right now... You see, I have a friend named Alexis. And her grandfather has been having strokes a lot really lately and been staying in the hospital... And today, her grandfather passed away. Alaina and Jolene and Healea know, and we're really afraid for her. Ever since these strokes have been happening, Alexis has been afraid of losing her grandfather. Now she's on the point of being suicidal. She tried drowning herself in the bathtub too, but she couldn't go through it.
Gosh, I'm really afraid for her. I'm one of the only people who knows... Her grandfather's funeral is on Friday... But Alexis and Alaina can't make it... Neither can I. I wish I could be there for Alexis like I used to, but I can't...
I've even tried talking to her and trying to reason with her, but that won't help anymore... She won't even listen to us anymore... I don't know what to do...
Please, pray for her. Please pray that she doesn't go through the suicide...
As for what's been happening in school lately, nothing much...
Melinda's been "offended" that I've "not being saying hi to her"... Sabrina's talking to me again...
Shiokaze-con is coming up pretty soon. I'm going as Satoshi from "D.N.Angel", but I need to make wings... (That's gonna be hard...and heavy.) Zaki's going as Mugen from "Samurai Champloo" and Troy's going as Scar from "Fullmetal Alchemist" (Zaki said Troy couldn't pull that off) and Timothy wants to go as Alphonese from "Fullmetal Alchemist", the younger human form.
Alan came in a suit to school today... o_O (I first noticed it in Health.) I turned back to just to get to the pencil sharpener, and I see him in a suit, and he looks at me and says "How come everyone keeps staring at me?" I told him I wasn't staring at him, and when I asked, he said it was for no special occasion. XP (When Alan came into Art period, the teacher told him to leave because she said he was making all the girls drop... XP They all went "No he's not!" XP) (Later, I also found out he drives a truck... He can drive...?)
Ooh, my Science teacher. He's nice, and he's collecting cans to buy an engagement ring for his girlfriend. (All the girls got really excited at that point and starting asking questions... XP) You see, my Science teacher wants to marry his girlfriend, but he currently doesn't have the money right now... Aww...
We learned about sewage and poop and how it was treated in the sewer... o_O When people heard that the water in there is reused after being cleaned, people went "EW!!!"
OH YEAH!!! For Health, for a MAJOR GRADE, we have to come up with a dance routine and perform it in front of a bunch of teachers, A.K.A. most of the faculty!!! *screams* I thought this was Health, not DANCE!!! *runs around* I don't know what to do!!! I'm gonna fail... *spins arounds and drops* (So you know, this is BOYS' HEALTH...)
I think Lily's been avoiding me all this time... o_O;; I wonder why... I've been hearing people going around saying I like her, or she likes me, and she's one of those people who will kinda believe rumors. And if a rumor starts about her, like, let's say she goes out with me, she thinks in order for that rumor to stop, she'll stop hanging around me. -_-;; (She's always doing that. But we usually become friends again. It's an odd cycle... @_@ She's a good friend, but she's just afraid of rumors/gossip about her.)
Oh yeah. We're still decipher the H.R. 4437 in ELA, and yeah... Well anyways, Bao made a joke about Zaki because he heard a beeping noise in the classroom and said Zaki had a bomb. ^^;; (You see, Zaki's Indian, but Bao was using him as an Iraqi or something in this part. XP)
Also, Nohemi said she said if Drexler wasn't Asian, she would find him cute. XP (Wait, if he weren't Asian? XP)
Well, in the bus today, we were all cramped up. I sat by Jessica, but she didn't feel comfortable sitting by me. (She was speaking Spanish, and I DO understand it if people don't know, and she was talking about me and being cramped, etc.) The guy on my right... Yeah. o_O;; One of J.J.'s friends. A girl behind him (that girl with the wavy hair and glasses) I think put glitter on his face. He SCREAMED and tried to wipe it off his face. Then that girl put it on another guy. (The guy that usually sits by Jackie.) He just wiped it off. Then that black guy by me screamed "HAHA! YOU SMELL LIKE A GIRL!" (That guy is afraid of "girl" stuff... Spray perfume on him and he'll scream... ^^;;)
Well, nothing much else has happened.
Please, pray for Alexis...

Quang Called Himself Retarded in Front of the Whole Church!
Start: 8:11 PM CST
I REALLY NEED TO START ON FRIDAY'S POST. I'M LAZY!!! I FORCE FEED YOU MY POSTS!!! I'll try to make it as short as I can, but we can't guarantee anything.
Friday
Well, in the morning, we all gathered in the gym. We were SUPPOSED TO HAVE A RALLY, BUT THEY CANCELLED IT!!! *screams* I sat with Nicole, and Nicole and Brian were trying to avoid Joe (creepy-looking "Sonic the Hedgehog" obsessor) that morning. So I sat with her in the bleachers. OH YEAH. THERE WERE TWO GAY GUYS IN THE BACK OF ME!!! Well, they kept touching my hair and one of them keep feeling my back... o_O;; Well, I turned back, and they actually admitted they were gay. o_O;;
Science, I learned that the school play was being cancelled because cast members were fighting with each other. Not physically, but with words.
In Gym, I hung out with Josue and mountain-climbed with him. He's so bored of P.E. now. I was too back when I took P.E.
Well, today, some guys in the line were talking about Chinese crackers. You know those crackers that taste sweet-kinda? Yeah. @_@ Oh yeah. I couldn't eat meat today, so I got fish. And I sat with Gene. Yup yup, we're still in structured lunch because of that 7th grade fight.
Well, in Art, we worked on our pots... It was okay. But at first, I just worked on the warm-ups for that week. We're making whistle pots... Yeah, we're starting Ceramics. XP
In ELA, we are still working on the bill H.R. 4437 and its deciphering. We finished, and I finished working on that other guy's paper!!! ^^ (You see, 3rd-5th period didn't finish their work, so 6th-7th period had to finish it!!!)
I also sat with Gene, and Zaki was teaching Gene how to speak Hindu. He wanted Bao to teach him Vietnamese, but I did it. XP (Bao doesn't take Viet Ngu anymore... Hmm.)
Well, I wanted my parents do drive me to Best Buy so I could buy "Kingdom Hearts", but they left with my mom's friends from Sa Dec to go to the Buddhist festival that I went to yesterday!!! *screams*
And they didn't come home until...10 PM - midnight???
Today/Sunday
Wow... I was just battling Dai in a Harry Potter Magical Duel... @_@ She kept using Petrificus Totalus on me! And the Unforgivable Curses! (Mainly Avadra Kedavra... -_-;;) There was a point in the game where she made me frozen, set me on fire, and chopped off my head. o_O;;
Grr... Evil Hufflepuffer!!! (She a first year.) (I'm Ravenclaw! ^^ Third year here.) And Alaina's Gryffindor...
Well, today, I woke up...I don't know when! I had to reset my clock, but I did that earlier in the night...err...morning. XP
Well, nothing to do really. I vacuumed and cleaned my room and did my laundry. And then I went downstairs and ate spaghetti. XP
After that, I went to go get ready for church school, and my sister ended up being a few minutes late. ^^;;
Well, at church, my mom stayed with us. You see, a priest was coming to our house, and she waited with us until it was time to pick up the priest. Well, I met up with Vi and Trang outside and then we went inside because it got too hot/sunny. We sat inside on foldable chairs and Jackie asked me for 50 cents for a bottle of water. Khang wanted to go to Wal-Mart, so I went, and Vi came along. Trang just stayed there and copied her calligraphy writing.
Um, while we were walking to Wal-Mart, Khang kept singing a song about perverted areas on your body... @_@ About a girl getting her gender changed, and then he cut off...ah, you get the point. -_-;; So we went into the store, and we looked through a bunch of stuff. Candy, chips, soda. But Khang bought 4 bags of candy and 1 Cheetos bag. Which was about...$5. (I spoil him too much. XP EVERYONE THINKS WE'RE BROTHERS THOUGH!!! I am not! We're just classmates! XP)
Well, we came back, and oh, I bought a Diet Pepsi. And we went into the church, Khang messed with Tam, Ricky, and Ricky's friend. They wanted our candy... -_-;; (And I bought back the Lemonheads from Khang for $1. XP)
Well, lots of eating candy, and my mom came up to me and talked. There was an adult's retreat later this week. Huh.
Well, class started and we did Geography in Viet Ngu! No one seemed to care... But our teacher did tell us a story. Ah, you don't wanna hear it. I'm too sleepy to read it to you. -_-;;
But Lac-Hong asked me to translate it back to her...
And I went to Confirmation, and Chi brought her flu stuffed animal! XP Tinh saw it and thought it was so cute! XP Now she wants to buy some... XP
In our class today, we talked about the Ten Commandments... (Earlier in our class, TA Jennifer was dancing weirdly. XP Oh yeah. She said she had fun in the Missouri trip. ^^) Well, we had to make up our own rules/commandments for our own little made-up country/kingdom. XP
Chi said "How about 'no prostitution'?" (We changed it to the word "adultry"... ^^;;) The guys heard Chi say that, and they joked around and said "Man, how am I supposed to make money now?" There were some weird ones like "No gay people!" or "The King is always right" and there was "Every time you see a Vietnamese person, you must pay him!" XP There were a bunch of weird and funny ones... XP There was also one that said "Do not listen to My Dang music!" Everyone just yelled at that... XP (My Dang is the Vietnamese word for a black person, so it means "don't listen to black music", or "rap"... ^^;;)
Well, we had chats and stuff. Oh yeah. Asian parents are STRICT, and TA Jennifer was telling us about hers and she said if it wasn't for her mom, she would be crazy...LITERALLY. XP
Oh yeah. The 9/11 incident... The plane that crashed into the Pentagon... That area is a chapel now. She said it's so cold in that area... o_O!!! She said she can sense the sorrow and sadness in there...
After class, Chi went home with her mom and I went to mass with Nickkie and Diana.
But before that, I went outside and Nickkie was drawing out her "Romeo and Juliet" cards for English, and a random girl with a skateboard was by us. o_O Kevin was there too. Oh yeah. Diana was there, but you know that already. XP And they all took my Lemonheads. XP
In mass, it was quiet because Nickkie and Diana weren't clapping and I couldn't hear singing. o_O;; (For a while there, I think Nickkie acted like Melinda. XP Not the quiet part, but some things she did or talked like.)
Well, after that, I talked to Diana (Anna's sister). I just learned her name and that she was her little sister! XP (She took all my Lemonheads later though!!!)
Oh yeah. Everyone kept eating my Lemonheads... Kevin, random people, etc. (Oh yeah! Random people asked me for money today... o_O?)
Well, I went home, and then we stopped at a small store to buy chips, etc. And now I'm home!!! ^^
Okay, what a long post! I'm glad it's over! Bye. ^^
End: 9:28 PM CST
Like you're gonna read this. Heh. XP
