Ah, A Busy Week So Far!!!
Start: 6:27 PM CST
Hey hey everyone! Oh my gosh... My whole week's been busy... But ya know, it's mostly the "fun" stress, neh? (Except SOME stress wants to knock on my door, and when I answer, slam my head with a sledgehammer... @_@)
Sunday
Oh my gosh. It was the last day for Confirmation... So sad!!! *cries* But you know, it was Mother's Day! I'm gonna try to remember everything, but it won't be that easy... Well, my sister gave my mom her birthday gift! Yup yuppers! It was a stuffed animal lamb she bought at Kohl's when we went on a shopping spree last week... Aww, so sweet. Oh yeah... It was before I went off to church, and I wanted to eat! (We still had food left from Saturday's party!) There was chicken wings, but it was soo cold... (I thought it wasn't cooked yet... How sad was I...? ^^;;)
Well, my sister and I were the only ones that ACTUALLY brought our schoolbooks! ^^;; I said "hi" to Elyssa and Angela! I was asking her about the book stuff and that, and her mom was telling her (Elyssa) not to wear what she was wearing anymore... (Ah! And I thought my mom only did that to my sister! XP) But all it was was jeans, sandals, and a red (jersey, I think) shirt.
When I went through the door, I saw Andy playing cards with Lac Hong! Ah, we're still planning to see X III: The Last Stand, but we don't go to the same theatres... (ACTUALLY, I haven't gone to ANY theatre since I've moved here... And I've been here for 11 months now... How pitiful. ^^;;)
Well, my BROTHER had to come intrude to us, and they and I played a bunch of games like BS and Thirteen (or VC, BC, Thien Lien, whatever you wanna call it), and Diana came over too! She was playing around with Lac Hong's iPod... (And later, I was listening to it! She has a LOT of Disney Mania songs... o_O!) Oh, and I heard the original version of "Sound Of My Dreams"... Hum, I like my cousin's better. (If you want to know, my cousin's DJ Xeno.) Oh, John came over too! And we played a game, but I can't remember what it was called! (I think it's Gin! Or was it Crow?) Ohh...I got the cards right, and John got frustrated... GRR! (I knew the signal, but WHAT was I supposed to get?! Two sets of two cards that are the same?! (Like: 2, 2, 4, 4) Or was it 3 same? (Like: 3, 3, 3, 10) I asked John, and all he said was "What the heck are you talking about...?" (It was in a mean, snarlish voice... GRR, I just got frustrated by then... @_@) Khang also came by later, but he seemed so sad that day... (He was playing Games on Lac Hong's iPod after I was finished with it... I find it hard to wrap up the headphones on her iPod case... @_@
Chi came soon! Ah, but her hair was wet... She had just woke up and showered, so yeah... ^^;; She brought the Vietnamese manga I asked her to bring!!! Hooray! ^^ Oh, it's the Vietnamese mangas Ouke No Monshou, Shaman King, and Detective Conan... Ooh... Anyways, the Awards Ceremony was starting that day, so I didn't bother to head towards my classroom and sat with Chi! I asked Dai where we could sit, and she said anywhere... (We decided to sit with Natalie, and Khang came by later!)
Ah, it was mostly quiet... Chi didn't want Khang to borrow her Vietnamese manga... (But I let him read Shaman King later... XP) He was so quiet when reading, and I noted Chi on that. (She likes him better that way... ^^;;) He wasn't hyper that day...and he stopped around Volume 2 of the Vietnamese Shaman King, and said that the manga was boring... (They cut out a TON of stuff in the Vietnamese version! And the font's so...weird-looking... @_@) That substitute teacher/vice principal/Nam's dad (or was it Minh?) Well, Natalie won a first (or was it second? Don't remember, but it was blue!) place trophy, and I won a third place one! (IT'S WEIRD. The guy who copied OFF OF my work got a higher trophy than me... GRR. His name's Minh...or was it NAM?! SEE?! BEING AWAY FROM THEM MAKES ME FORGET THEIR NAMES!!! *cries*) Well, Khang got first place! But still...they were so sad today...
I looked outside...and the sky was cloudy...and gray... No sunlight anywhere... (I heard weather also affects your personality...)
Natalie, Khang, and I got our group photo in the picture with the rest of the winners... *laughs* I used my trophy as a "bunny ears" for Khang... ^^;; Oh yeah. The vice principal kept saying "Who want trophy?" in a Vietnamese-like accent. ^^;; Also, in Vietnamese, instead of saying "Cheese", you say "Chiiiiiii..." with the "i" part going softer as you say it... ^^;; (It just sounded weird to me, and it got annoying after a while...)
Well, we headed out towards the lobby, and I saw people walking around with pizza!!! (I ran around trying to see where they were serving it/selling it, but I realized that a teacher bought it for her class... GRR. Chi followed me, and Natalie was...somewhere.) Anyways, Diana was there with a bag of candy! We asked her for candy, and she was picky, and she gave us the candy that she didn't want... ^^;; (Starbursts, Reese's, and Smarties) Why am I even so detailed with what we eat?! *hits head* Chi tried to steal me candy!!! GRR... XP
So basically, no one was in class, and we all just wandered class... Quang and his band were setting up their instruments in class, and they were just playing, and some people listened, and some walked around... So when most of the music started, a ton of people came in! Hehe, but Jennifer kicked out Confirmation II students... (Huh, I think my sister left by then too.) Oh, some people were playing the instruments (the students, I mean) when the regular band players left... Jennifer played on the drums! Everyone applauded for her... XP
Well, Chi, Natalie, and I just started talking with one another, and it was fun... We participated with all the JAM music, and hehe, when we were doing the "dances", Jackie just came up ALL HYPER and hopping about and grabbing Natalie's hands and trying to make her jump higher... (OH, SHE WAS HYPER... o_O!!!) Hehe, everyone was so HYPER!!! (Natalie's eyes kept hurting while she was was jumping, and I wanted to call Diana on, but she seemed to be angry... Natalie thought Diana was angry at her... Aww...) Then after the stuff, Quang (or someone) said "There's cake and ice cream behind you." (And there was. Tables set up basically.) Everyone just started running up saying "Cake!!!" (*laughs* It's true! XP) But before we could eat, Na Nhi did her special presentation, and she got all the teachers roses!!! We all applauded, and we applauded for Jennifer, and she waved her hands in the motion, meaning that she wants more applause... XP
Ah my gosh... The cake was too sweet... I hate that... MUST DRINK... I sat with Katherine! (Ah, I thought her name was Loan! NO WAIT. I'm stupid, that's the other girl... GRR, I only learn their Vietnamese names, but not their English ones. ^^;;) Ah, so we sat on the floor and pigged out on fruit drinks, cake, and ice cream. (I explain the stuff I eat so vividly, no? o_O???) And there was a weird song they were singing while we were eating... SO STRANGE. After they done, a girl said "Happy Mother's Day!", and Jennifer yelled "HEY!" (Get it? She's still in college, and if you call her a mother, it might mean you're calling her "old"... ^^;;)
Well, after all that, Chi had to go home with her dad, and she stacked ALL THOSE VIETNAMESE MANGAS INTO MY HANDS! (I was already holding, like, 3-4 thick books, and you add 7 more on top?! @_@) I went outside, and talked with friends... I got Sonja, Scotty, and Jackie's AIM! Hooray! I can keep in touch with them... ^^ (Oh yeah! I got Andy's e-mail!)
Mass was all right... Quiet though... Diana was scarring herself with her pencil, and I tried to stop her, and she clawed me. o_O;; Na Nhi and her friend were just watching mass today... We had a Vietnamese priest (at first, I thought he was Chinese because I HEARD Wu, but it's Vu) doing mass with one of the priests today. XP
Monday
Well, in Science, we were called out to get our yearbooks!!! GRR, NO! I didn't pre-order, and I was just joking, but I raised up my hand and said, "Can I have $35?" (GAH, PEOPLE TOOK THAT SO SERIOUSLY. WEIRD... ^^;;)
Taylor came back with her yearbook, and I signed by my name and stuff... Hehe, it was fun looking through the yearbook... (Except I hurt my neck. o_O;; You know how you have to stand up and turn your neck if you want to try to see a book? Well, I did that for a few minutes, and it hurt after putting it normal again. ^^;;) (I've noticed!!! I'VE BEEN SPELLING PEOPLE'S NAMES WRONG ALL THIS TIME!!! And it was hard looking up some people because I didn't know their last name... AND some had different names. Like Asian people! Their Asian names were in the yearbook, but I called them by their English names... XP)
Hehe, most of the day was filled with yearbook signing, basically... (I'm not gonna go into detail, I can't even remember!!! @_@!) But in Algebra, I wrote to Grace that I wish we could've been better friends... (And it's true! I wanted to get to know so many people! But I didn't get the chance or time...) She wrote back on Tuesday that she wished that too... ^^
Oh yeah... When I was waiting by the entrance door into the Gym hallway, Barbara was sitting on the sidewalk with her friends... She said "Hey Travis... Yesterday, on AIM, did you call my brother a 'chubby, little penguin in a suit'?" (Or something like that.) I said "Yeah..." She replied "Yeah, I was right there. He just started laughing when he read that." (*laughs* AWW, HOW CUTE!!! Kai-chan likes being called a "little chubby penguin"!!! But when I typed it to him, all he said was "-______-::" and ">______O::"... ^^;; Chi said Kai tries to act tough, but isn't. ^^;;)
Oh yeah. Lunch! In the lunch line, there was this guy begging for money... And when I told him no, he said. "I know you lying. You Chinese person are loaded with money. I bet you get, like, what, $40 a day?" -_-;; (Is that a compliment or an insult?) I told him that I don't get that much, and he pointed to my gold crucifix on my neck, and I told him my mom bought it for me... So he SAID that it claimed that I had a lot of money, and I told him that I WORE IT BECAUSE I WAS CATHOLIC, NOT BECAUSE I WAS RICH. (But by then, he didn't care...)
Idiots nowadays!!! Ya know... Out of the 100% teenage people who CLAIM they're Catholic, only 4% ACTUALLY have strong faith with God... (And I'm one of the 4% of people. ^^)
Oh, in Art, Paulisha had a plastic grocery bag full of stuff, and I got curious, and looked through it. (At first, I thought it was gonna be something private, so I didn't. The second time, when I did open it, I said "Hey! I thought this would have something private...") There was a brown lanyard-styled belt with a butterfly buckle (which I wore as a tie! XP), gym clothes, and she had eyeliner! Hehe, I just wanted to put it on... (Melissa gave me a mirror...) I tried, but Paulisha needed a small sharpener (which Melissa had) and in a corner of the room, Paulisha burned the tip of the pencil (GASP! She had a lighter!) so the eyeliner would work better... (But Melissa told me not to share eyeliner or you might get pinkeye... ^^;;) Oh, it didn't work out... And I asked Paulisha to put it on me, and it hurt... -_-;; (I wiped it off.) So we just started playing with each other's faces for a while... XP You see, Paulisha told me a story about when she was little, on Halloween, she did her eyes like those Egyptian kings/queens. (The eyelining with the curve at the end, of course!) We tried to do that for each other's eyes, but I messed up on hers... ^^;; (I also gave her a mole. XP) Later, Melissa asked "Are you gay?" But Paulisha replied for me "He's not gay, just curious." *laughs*
Oh yeah... I asked my parents to sign a paper so I could go to Eighth Grade Day Away, and my dad did that... (I told my dad his handwriting was ugly, but he said that MINES was ugly. -_-;;) As for the yearbooks, they costed $35!!! @_@!!! (I asked my mom for money, and she gave me $40... XP)
Later that night, Chi and I had a chat with Kai about his life and stuff... I tried really hard to "melt that ice" (as Chi had put it), and I think I've done a bit of good... He had a close person who he liked and had fun with, but he lost that person... And in order to get away from that pain, he's shut himself off from his emotions...
But as soon as Vy came in, we just started joking about... (Hehe, there's nothing more I can actually do now... He has to do it for himself... ^^) I "jumped into his bed and asked if he could read me a bedtime story"... XP And I stuffed him full of food... (He's such a thin penguin!)
Here's some fun for ya! XP
Me: *picks up a peanut* This is the size of Vy's brain! (Vy's a fish, and fish's brain are small...)
Vy: What the hell...?
Me: *throws "Vy's brain at Kai* Hmm... *puts a bunch of peanuts into a blender and feeds it to Kai*
I just choked him with food that day... ^^;;
Tuesday
Oh yeah... I wanted to buy a yearbook... I wandered the school in the morning, and asked Grace where to turn in my Eighth Grade Day Away papers, and she said it was in the boy's gym. Well, it wasn't there, but Mr. Gonzalez had it, and I asked where they sold yearbooks, and he said he didn't know, and that I had to ask Mr. McLain. (He said it so nice... I wonder why people think he's mean...) Oh yeah! I kept calling him "Mr. McClain", but my sister corrected me on that just now. XP
So yeah... In U.S. History, I let Ruth have most of my extra 5 points I win, and she gave me a hug... XP (You see, she made a low grade, and she needed the points. ^^) Oh yeah! I asked her if she knew who Mr. McLain was, and she said "Oh, you mean that white guy that walk like he gay?" (o_O;; I told her "Um...I don't know.") And yeah, she asked Desare and yup, it's "that" guy... -_-;;
So yeah... I asked Mohammad during Health, and he said that he teaches in two different schools (this one and the Annex) and he wasn't here right now... But right when I was walking towards lunch, I went by his door (a brown door labled "Storage"... -_-;;), but no one was there... And then, I saw a man with a "strange walk"... (As he passed by, I remember that Ruth said he was a teacher "with a walk that looks gay"... -_-;;) So yeah, it was him! I asked if I could buy a yearbook, but he said he sent a letter to all the teachers...
Oh, I think I brought up a disturbing question... Not disturbing, but listen... You see, I said "It's weird how Peter and Lois's (Family Guy) children are adopted... Chris is adopted, Meg is adopted, and I think Stewie's adopted too." Then Calvin said "I'm adopted." (It made me feel bad for bringing that up... And it's true.)
Okay! In Art... I asked my teacher if she got an e-mail from Mr. McLain and she told me that I needed to bring the money... When I told her I had it, she told me to be quiet and not to tell anyone... She said she doesn't trust some people at the school... (Like, if they found you had about $40 with you, wouldn't they try to take it?) Hehe, Melissa was listening, but she's my friend, so neh. XP Oh! Paulisha had her gym shirt to sign, and I signed it! (Darneshia signed so much!!!) Melissa wrote "Hey Bitch!" but as a friendly way. XP Oh yeah... JOSUE MESSED UP HER SHIRT!!! He kept writing mean things about Melissa, and Melissa crossed it out... @_@ (So lots of crossed-out words on Paulisha's shirt...)
In ELA, it was SOO BORING. Work, work, but we did get to sign yearbooks! Ah, Angelie was playing with her hair, making it look like an "umbrella" (which is a ponytail with the tail part going all directions) and I just tried to style it like that... (I didn't have the long hair!!!) She said "Ugh, I just have this urge to put your hair in pigtails!" And I styled it to make it look like that. XP Again, I tried that "umbrella" look (actually, it's like a samurai's small ponytail) and I pulled it back, and Tia just bursted out laughing... ^^;; (For a short time, anyways.) Then, for some reason, Angelie got "angry" at Nuzrat, and tried to sit away from her... ^^;; (Nuzrat scooted her chair into Angelie's back, and Angelie sat where my backpack had been... ^^;;)
Oh, I read Alexis's dreams and goals on her paper... When I sat by her, she said "You're hot." My expression: o_O;; She replied "I have no problem with telling boys that. Well, in her dreams and goals, she wants to get married in Japan (she even slept on my shoulder and asked "Wanna get married?" o_O?), live in Japan, go to school in Japan, etc. She also had "own a stripper" in her dreams and goals. I was like: o_O;; and asked "Who's your stripper...?" She hugged me and said "You are!" o_O;; (I swear, she acts to me like Katie acts with Hinaru... -_-;;)
I talked to Alaina yesterday! (Phone and AIM!) The phone wasn't so interesting, but on AIM, I killed her, put her in a toaster, then ate her... o_O;; I took her brain, put it in a stuffed animal pig I gave her named Omelet... (And then slept with it... ^^;;) The next day, I gave her Wolverine-styled claws (from X-Men!!!) and threw her out into the street to fend for herself. SHE CAME BACK IN AND KILLED ME AND WENT ON A MASSACRE!!! o_O;; Oh yeah! For her birthday, her friends gave her a picture of Juan... o_O;;
Wednesday/Today
Well, in the morning, I WOKE UP LATE... (You see, I woke up 10 MINUTES BEFORE THE BUS CAME!!!) My mom had to wake me up... -_-;; (Ah, I didn't come out with my sister, but I made it to my bus a bit early. ^^)
In the school store, there was a line to buy yearbooks! I got in the line, and Andrew got in with me. I asked Nadia if it was the line for yearbooks, just to make sure. XP (She wasn't even buying... XP) Mr. McLain was helping sell them! Oh yeah! Andrew had a check, but they wouldn't accept checks. Aww... (There's only a limited supply too... -_-;;)
Science - Couldn't find my test review!!! GRR! But oh yeah! Mr. Jacoby was talking about the games he played... He played "Diablo 2", and he was telling us about how he bought a PS2, but he only played it for like, 15 hours, and never played it ever again. (WHAT?! He's bought so many games, but has only played 15 hours?) Heh, I should be the one to talk. I never play my GameCube or PS2 or whatever... ^^;; All the guys just came and talked to him (including me) about video games... GRR, no ONE's (well, in my Science class) heard about MapleStory, Gunbound, or Ragnarok Online before!!! *screams* GRR, also, Malcolm wanted to see my yearbook, and HE MESSED IT UP... (You know those waxy papers usually used in yearbooks? Well, when he turned the page, ALL THESE wrinkles/creases were on the papers!!! I HATE THOSE!!!) You can tell how delicate someone is by the way they turn the page of a book... (Remember that. ^^)
U.S. History - Ruth also hates when someone turns a page like that, especially if it's a new book... (She said she wants to sign my yearbook tomorrow, because she wants to write a LOT.)
Health - I was just enjoying talking with Vyonne and getting her to sign my yearbook. ^^ Ah, it was so peaceful that day... (Hehe, I got sad when I thought she moved away! I'm sorry! I assumed too much! Like I said, her dad's something like military... Moves around a lot.) Oh yeah! San Nhi was walking around with Hunky Chunky the Purple Monkey and shaking it, and Nancy was annoyed and told her to stop shaking it... ^^;; All of us had to play soccer that day, and it was nice, except that the other guys were hogging the ball... ^^;; Danny kept imitating how we looked while we were playing... (Showing us how it looked by making weird faces... @_@) Also, it was gonna be our last day in the gym, so we had to clean out our gym lockers... (In the earlier part, people kept knocking each other around, kicking around deoderant stuff as fake soccer, and stuff... UGH. Here's a weird conversation, I had...)
Me: (preppy voice) HI TROY!
Troy: (preppy voice) HI TRAVIS! WANT A HUG?
Me: (preppy voice) SURE!
Troy: (backs off, scared)
*laughs* I scare people by doing that... XP And we were being sarcastic... XP
Oh, yes, did I tell you? In Algebra, John (Vietnamese) signed my yearbook with the Communist flag, and wrote "We Remember" with the date the Communists took over Vietnam, and renamed the school in the picture (he crossed out HBMS) and put in "Communist MS"... o_O;; (He did that to Danny's yearbook too!) While we were walking towards Gym, Erik did the exact thing, only with the Nazi symbols and stuff... -_-;;
In Lunch, Bao (dark-skinned one) was actually being nice to me... o_O;; (He's always saying I look gay, but then again, he DID want to cut me, but eh...) Oh yeah... That guy from gym! I talked with him! (He's Hispanic or Middle Eastern, and I remember one time he tried to hit on me... o_O;; But he's nice. He wanted to sign my yearbook, but I never found him again after lunch... -_-;;)
I sat by Rez and that guy, and he was asking me if I liked girls. I told him "as friends", but he mistook it as a "no" and asked "Are you gay?" I told him that I didn't really see dating as anything important, and it's just basically hanging out with your friends (at my age, yes), and why complicate relationships with that stuff? He asked if I was that kind of guy that would just find a girl he liked when I was older and marry her? ^^;; (So early to ask that. XP)
In Art, we went over our reviews, and they signed my yearbook. Oh my gosh, Paulisha's was so long... ^^ (I guess we've been good friends, huh? Really, the longer someone writes to you, the closer friends you are, I think. ^^)
In ELA, Laura was here! She was so ashamed, because now she has braces... Hey, everyone in our "clique" in ELA had braces or USED to have braces! Hehe, Tia said "I had one of those braces where you had to strap around your head! *laughs* Just kidding!" (Hehe, so cute. XP Tia's never really talked out unless someone asked her, so it was strange to us... XP) Oh yeah! I played with Hunky Chunky the Purple Monkey when Transition started! Yay! I just walked around with him and shook him over and over... (Ms. Spies said I had to promise her first and second period not to touch it because they're SO determined to KILL HIM. ^^;;) So I just walked around... And we found out the truth!!! DUN DUN DUN! It wasn't first and second period that chucked him across the room and onto a ceiling cabinet!!! IT WAS OUR CLASS!!! Well, Bao anyways... XP And I think Jonathan was also blamed. (Laura said "Let's let the monkey point to who did it" and she made the stuffed monkey point its hand towards Bao... ^^;;)
Ah yes. Laura hates Hunky Chunky the Purple Monkey... She kept punching it and pushing it down when it was sitting down... (I moved my fingers to make evil eyebrows for the monkey, and Laura and I laughed because it reminded us of a long time ago, we made eyebrows for the monkey with tape... XP) Hehe, she even said "You wanna fight?!" and I motioned the monkey's arms into a karate-like stance...
Now, you guys ask, what's "Hunky Chunky the Purple Monkey"??? It's a stuffed animal my ELA bought a few months ago to make us be quiet. (It makes a squeaking noise if you shake it.) She hasn't used it in a long time though... It has purple/violet/blue fur, a blue face and ears, and a yellow bellybutton and hands and feet. (But first and second period, a long time ago, HATED IT SO MUCH THEY TRIED TO SMASH THE SQUEAKING BOX OVER UNTIL IT DIDN'T WORK!!!) That's how much they hated it. ^^;;
Oh, we talked more about the Holocausts... She told me anyone who understands why the Nazis did will be recruited by the Neo-Nazis... She ALSO says anyone who denys that the Holocaust existed is part of the Neo-Nazis. (Neo-Nazis is a group that wants to begin again what the Nazis did those so many years ago...) And she also talked that her family was attacked by the KKK during the WWII BECAUSE she was German... Also, she talked about the Japanese concentration camps... Well, if you don't know what that's about, during WWII, the Americans were afraid of Japan invading the U.S., so they moved all the Japanese people in the country into these "concentration camps" in the middle of the desert... (How mean!!!) Oh yeah... Typhus... OW. That's a disease by lice, and when you get lice and no medicine to clean it out, YOU HAVE TO TAKE WIRE BRUSHES AND TEAR OFF THE SKIN! (The lice eggs embed into your skin, so ew... -_-;;) There were so many that you could just pick up a handful of lice into your hands... (EW.)
In the bus, I sat with Andrew and he signed my yearbook... Lily signed mines (so short!) and I signed hers, but I kept waiting for the bus to stop moving, and THEN I would wrote... She said she didn't care if I messed up... ^^;; Chelsea wrote "youre a good friend", but we haven't even known each other for that long, even hang out! (That's what Precious and Chelsea were laughing about in Chelsea's yearbook signing. XP)
Well, when I got home, I ate lots of food... Yum. XP Not a lot, but neh.
OH YEAH!!! TODAY IS MY DAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY!!! HONGIE!!! Happy Birthday to you Hong! She's 14 now! *claps*
Okay, I'll see you later guys! It's been fun chatting again. Bye!
