18!?

Happy birthday to my favorite twin brothers Edward JAMES Torres and Mark Anthony Torres. FINALLY 18! Legal and ready to... be good boys. WAIT NO-- men. =)

AND happy belated birthday to CINDY HIGASHIDA! Sheesh, everyone's turning 18 now. What's taking everyone else forever (AHEM, DANIELLE CRYSTAL ANDREW JANMHAR JUSTIN ARVIN RENEE!!!)

I haven't even been going to the gym for a week yet and I'm already seeing progress. SCORE! I can't wait to see what a month can do.

I miss my camera. =( I don't want to go into detail about why I don't have it, but I do miss him terribly. Oh well, I'll have him back in time.

Until next blog...

3 day weekend

A lot happened this weekend. Let's recap and I'll try to make it short.

Friday: Hung out with Crystal, James, Janmhar, Andrew, Justin, Mark, Justin, Romel, and Nikki after school. I met Nikki on Friday. She's pretty chill! She wiped my windows for me because they were fogging up and I couldn't wipe them while I was driving. We chilled in the parking lot at the teen center for a while, ATTEMPTING to figure out what to do. We ended up taking car pictures and just messing around. Then got some boba. THEN went to Mega Video to rent Mirrors. THEN went to Taco Bell to get some grub. THEN went to Mark and James' house to chill. It was pretty fun. I hung out with Paul and AJ in the kitchen for the most part, lol. Man, all I have to say to sum up the night is "That's what she said." I had to leave early because I had to go to Bible Study.

Saturday: California Adventures on Valentine's Day. Luckily it didn't rain that day. But it was pretty cold. Hung out with Crystal, Ariel, Gloria, Robert, Fabian, Spencer, Lee and Chris. Cherisse and Kristine came late and we didn't really get to hang out with them much, unfortunately. =( Me, Crystal, and Gloria were "craving for fajitas" all day and night. We only found some towards the end of the night. I didn't have an actual Valentine this year. Last year, my long time friend Jeremy asked me to be his Valentine, but we didn't get to talk this year so no Valentines for us! =( Maybe next year.

Sunday: Reisee's birthday party all the way in Palmdale. My brother and I cooked wontons for the party and it took forever to fry! On our way there, we picked up Danielle and headed for Reisee's. As soon as we arrived, I got out of the car and threw up. =/ Yeah, gross. The party was pretty fun. The uncles, aunts, and cousins were already gambling when we got there, which was odd. They usually start at night but it was like 3 something and they had already started. I took pictures throughout most of the party. I got to play with Klein's lenses and bounce flash. I REALLY WANT ONE. I need to save up. And Danielle drove me, Reisee, and Elaine around to show off her new driving skills. She just got her license on the 10th. So congrats to my little cousin! She's a pretty good driver too, with the exception of her left turns.

Monday (today): Woke up late since I got home late from the party. Ate brunch and dropped off my car at the shop to change my tires. After that, went to the new 24Hour Fitness and I am now officially a member. =) Went home, changed, gathered all my workout stuff and headed back to the gym. Worked out for about an hour and a half. I did a lot of cardio and leg workouts and man, I'm sore right now. Oh, I saw Brian Briones there too! I haven't seen him for YEARS! Went to Costco afterwards to get gas and dinner. Went inside to shop for some stuff then headed home. I went to go pick up my car with my dad and I ended up getting to drive the Lexus home. It was pretty cool. The pick up on that car is nice.

Yep, I had a pretty eventful weekend. February is a crazy month for me. I have stuff going on every single weekend this month. And now that I have a gym membership, I'm probably going to spend most of my free time there.

I've been putting my camera to good use lately. I really want a flash. I need to go pick up Dennis' flash from Glendale. But I don't want to drive that far. I need to save up for my own.

To do list:
1. Write to Dennis.
2. Snailmail Liane.
3. Keep up with school work.
4. Go to the gym at least 5 days a week, even if it's for only 30 minutes.
5. Buy ***** for **** & *****. =)
6. Pray and read the Bible more!

Until next blog...

Rain.

So Dennis officially left for Afghanistan today. He was in Houston since my last blog but his flight left early in the afternoon today. I'm going to miss him. Heck, I already do.

Nothing too significant has happened since my last blog. School, my aunt's birthday party, more school, Bible study, homework, more school, mini chill sessions afterschool... Eh, nada. Oh wait! I got two new piercings, haha. Just one more on each lobe, nothing too crazy. Danielle encouraged me to get them. It was pretty spontaneous too. Thanks Danielle! Haha.

I want to start using my camera everyday. Capture life as it appears to my eyes. HAHA, how overly emo and artsy does that sound!? But I do. I want to put it to good use. After all, I DID pay for it all.

It rained today. It's raining pretty hard right now. As I was driving home from school, I almost got into an accident. It was a 3 way stop sign and it was my turn to go, BUT this one dude decided to just go without waiting and luckily we both stopped in time. Thank God we're all okay.

I don't know what it is about the rain, but sometimes it brings out the moody side of me. Not the biotchy side, but like... the sensitive side I guess. I'm listening to some feel-good music right now and I just feel so mellow...

So I guess I'm not going to WF. As much as I really want to, it's already too late. I'll just find something to do, someplace to go, someone to hang out with. Maybe Marian... or my dog. I hope everyone that's going has a great time though.

I don't know what else to write. I guess I'll just end this here.



Until the next blog...
