the the the

Last week was one of the most tiring weeks i've ever had in my life! On monday I went to waterpolo practice, tuesday and wednesday i went to vegas with my mom, dad, lilbro, ploy, and a cousin who came in from the grand canyon who was headin back to thailand soon. On thursday went to disneyland and even though it was suppose to be the happiest place on earth, it didnt make me that happy..
Then on the same day I went to chain reaction! my first time ever! I went with flori to finally see Close But Not Quite. There was also Teen Hearts, Boom box ninjas, the divine? i think and big city kids. they were all like hip hop ish electronic ish type bands. idk. but we got there kinda late like at around 8 ish i think. so i got to see like 3 bands. I took my nikon and just decided to experiment and take some pictures. It turned out alright but it wasnt WOW. After I went and bought a CBNQ shirt and CD. all for like 20 bucks so i would say its was alright. Flori got a pic with Wes and we met Alex and i introduced myself :) so cute :) and Tony was all sexin up the stage like Wes. Someone threw panties at Tony! hahah thought it was hilarious but dirrrty XP
there was an after party at like Wes' house or something but we didnt go. and hopefully when they come over to hang out i can go! hahaha
Harry Potter Tomorrow! FINALLY the day has come! cant wait to drool over the new hottie <3
And my T-shirt start up classes started. Not what I expected but Its okay. The teacher criticizes our work and in a good way. Like she tells us which direction to go in and stuff like that. She also tells us about the business aspect of doing any business which i thought was interesting. She even told us she was on Oprah! wow hahaha. she does cookbooks and designs products and does business consultant stuff.. Me and hanna teamed up and i guess we're doing a fruit line to promote healthy eating-_- fuckkk. i dont really like it but whatever. just gonna roll with it for now.
For my photography class i have to get started on my box project! ughhh i dont have anything ready, no test shots , no box! no nothing! and its this saturday ... I'm trying to do something simple.. but idk.
and i got mad at my mom today and giving her the silent treatment cuz she cleaned my room, and i dont know if she threw anyhting out that was important or where stuff is! i dont want to go to her and ask her where stuff is in my room! how gay. and she took off all my posters!!!!! WHYYY i had already taken some down for her and i told her i did that for her and then she goes and takes everything down while im in class! UGHHHH. i know she cleaned my room cuz she wanted to do something good. but CMONNNNN man everytime im about to clean my room she goes and does it firsttt. -_- i know i procrastinate but i eventuallly do it. man.....whatever.

Bring Me Flowers


Damn its been forever since I got on here. Well Lets see we left off with graduation...ok here we go!

I look like burnt toast. From waterpolo. What to say bout it..well idk if i feel anything towards that sport anymore to tell you the truth. I dont think i've ever felt anyhting for it to begin with. I mean yeah it probably got me to where i am today, which is more confident and outgoing than before. But im still shy and whatever but way better than before. It got me a whole new group of friends.But the thing is, in the game i'm not confident, i hesitate and doubt myself when im about to shoot. and i dont understand shit when we start playing. its so weird its like i blank out and all the stuff i learned in practice is just gone. Same thing with swim. ughhh. I just feel like i have to force myself to do it...In a way I just want to do it because of the letterman jacket, but then again i would probably be alright with what i have now and just not do swim. ugh idk..i always say that i might quit it but i dont.I dont even really care about going to waterpolo games, i would rather lie and go see a show instead. I mean its summer you know and i wanna have fun. but then again i have to commit to the team! ughh fuckkk. idk Close But Not Quite plays July 9th. I might go see them instead of playin in a game.

So we celebrated zubia's birthday on the June 24. It was soo chaotic to me. thats what it felt like. we were originally going to throw a surprise party but no one fuckin replied back so i was like F that shiz and came up with a new plan. Since Transformers 2 comes out that same day and he wanted to watch we decided to go watch it in IMAX! went to watch ti with Ploy her bf , hanna, my lil bro and our cousin. It was pretty bomb. heres the recap of the movie: explosion,megan fox, screaming, explosion, megan fox, explosion, kiss, end. HAHAHA but it was pretty good. After we went to eat at Banana Bay and hanna made a cake so we ate that it was good :) tastey makes me wanna bake one haha. Well we were going to go to cue but it was like almost midnight so we just called it a night.

Um I've been taking this photo class at art center college. and i think its a waste of money. ughh damn to be honest that class made me hate photography in a way. All we do is take random pictures thats suppose to have a meaning and we discuss it and it takes up the whole class. and the class is from 9am to 12pm. Now getting near the end of like the time we have left, we have a project to do where we get like a large box where we could fit a person inside of it and take portraits. sounds like fun right well we have to get all the shit for it and come up wit ha fuckin theme. and all my classmates looked like that stepped out of urbanoutfitters or lookbook or whatever the fuck. and like their so girly somtimes...but i shouldnt take shit really i mean their good and some of them might actually find a career in it. and we have to do like 'diptychs' and 'environmental portraits' and 'what it is for a woman to be a photgrapher' and a lot of other stuff that are due the saturday after 4th of July. that only gives me 2 weeks. ughh man. like what i really want to do is be a Band Photographer. like shoot for AP magazine and Rolling Stones. and just shoot bands live. thats probably all i ever want to shoot. I could careless about taking pictures of my room for classes.

But one thing I am excited for is for the T-Shirt Start Up Classes to start! i hope that wont turn out to be a disappointment like the photoclasses did. I hope this is going to be the kick in the butt that gets me going to help start up my own line. I've been talking about it since sophomore year..I've been all talk, now i just gotta walk the walk.

Ughhh so the following friday after zubia's birthday was June the 26, or WARPED TOUR POMONA! oh man the best! I've missed you so much warped tour<3 seriously bomb ass day! so the day started of by my parents droping me off at warped cuz i didnt have a ticket and they wanted to stay around there until i got one just in case if i didnt get one. Well I ended up did getting one ! and likei saw flori there at the beginning of the line so i just cut with her. and frankie was there and hector too. and like brandon and cali was there too. well anyways i went with karisa nad we met up with cutie friend marcos whom i didnt get a picture of :( well anyways my mom called me and liek i was oh shit 'i forgot to call her and tell her i got the ticket alrady' and so i told her but i just got in for like 5 mins. but ugh yeah i'll talk about that part later. well then we first went to go watch attack!attack! which was pretty good. then idk where else we went but heres a list of bands we saw : the devil wears prada, a day to remember, a rocket to the moon, versaemerge, i set my friends on fire, alexisonfire, saosin, underoath, dancegavindance, meg and dia, and idk i think thats about it... well yeah during the day me, marcos and karisa decide to just go ahead and do the slip and slide which got us totally soaked! haha but it was fun..I ended up having to switch tanktops so i have to jsut take off my top right there! idc cause like everyone at warped was half naked anyways. and we decided to do it because of the heat, but i thought the heat was alright at least it wasnt like last year where it was like 100 and something degrees. anyways, marcos got hot throughout the day and decided to take off his shirt ;) haha like byy then after the slide we met up with gab, cameron and jeff and we went to go see the devil wears prada WHICH i thought would have to be the best show for me that day cause i never really listened to them before and like i got all into it with jeff LOl and i like them now. I think that any band that can give out so much energy to a person who didnt even really listen to them before is like a fave to me, ya dig? Well everyone decided that the best show was a day to remember, which i thought i almost DIED in! hahaa damn that crowd was like freakin into it! like idk how many times i got in the shoulder or head or back from all the ppl that were crowdsurfing! haaha i almost did it too thoguh but i had a lot of stuff on my that i didnt want to lose hha.and i think that day was the first time i actually got sunburned ..but idkk. marcos let me put sunblock on his shoulders too ;) LMAOOOO. ughhhh overall it was a good day.saw mo, and sandy there. and i saw close but not quite there too. and i got a picture with them along with some other ppl. got home at like around 9ish. thanks karisa for the ride haha.

okay and then going back to the part where i forgot to call my mom.....well on saturday the day before ventura warped tour. I kinda got into a pickle with my parents infront of like my aunt and my brothers and his wife... like it was like this. My other aunt lets call her jj. she said that i oculd go with her to sell thai food at warped in ventura. and i got all excited and i thought my parents would let me go. so the on saturday my parents said no dont go cuz their druggies and its dangerous. and they said that the only reason she wanted me to go was because she wanted me to watch over her daughter who was like 14 i think. well i didnt care cuz i would get to go into warped free and just meet up with hanna or mo or like something liek tat. but idk why i was starting to cry...and like then my mom brought up how i went friday adn i forgot to call her and then she started to tear up about that. and like i could understand why you know cuz they were waiting for me and they were there for ME and I forgot to call them. and like idkk... that entire situation was aall confusing.. like i wanted to say the things that i felt inside, but when i said a part of it, they thought something else of it and i just gave up. so now our relationship is weird, idk if i'm making it weird. but im trying to act like how i was before, and just be my weird self..but i think that conversation changed something. OKAY AND THEN they said that i oculd go if i wanted. but they said in that parent way, where it was like "yeah go ahead, but I dont approve of this at all" so I jsut decided not to go..I didnt want them to get more angry at me and UGHHHHHH yeah thats how i feel about that.

OH THE CAB TOUR! well i went there with mo! and like the cab, the secret handshake, the summer set, and anarbor was there. I was surprised to see some parents there too. it was at the roxy, my first time there and i loved it. they had places you could sit in the back alike there was these awesome black and white show pictures that were framed and put on the walls. I really want to do that. those pictures look amazing! so anyways the show was awesome, dont really want to talk to much about that.

OH AND back to the pomona warped. i made a twitter like a couple days before and like i was following the pit reporter. and liek she was tweeting at warped and was saying that if you came and high fived her by this petting zoo thing she would give you a free hat. and like we went to her and found her and did. and like she tweeted about it and posted a picture with me and hat on . and like me,marcos, and karisa got interviewed for the warped tour blog with a camera and mike and everything! hahaha super cool.

ugh and i think im going to leave off with that...oh and yes MJ died on ploy's birthday june 25 2009. idk what to really say. i just feel bad ofr him that he had to live his life in the public like that since he was a kid..

and one last thing. purevolume had this section where they were saying that they were looking for photographers to shoot some bands. i signed up for it. hopefully i get it even though i dont have any lighting equipment and stuff like that...but yeah thats kiidna the direction i wanna go so we'll see what happens.
