its been awhile

well seems like i haven't updated this thing in quite sometime and there has been a few things that has happened since the last time i blogged so here it goes:

first off my birthday. and again i would just like to thank everyone who greeted me and came out to celebrate my birthday w/ me. to be honest, this is one of the best birthday i've had in such a long time. i guess there were a few things that happened that were really unexpected to me. one was my cousins greeting me and calling me. some of you may know my family situation, but if you dont here's the jist of it...my parents got divorce a few years ago and my relationship w/ my family from my dad's side hasnt been the same. in fact i haven't seen them in a little over a year now. last time i saw any of them was last thanksgiving and even w/ that i felt uncomfortable; wasnt as welcomed as it use to be. go figure, filipino families are not big on divorce. but what upsets me the most is for one they're adults and they're sure not acting like one, secondly, what goes on between my parents is their business, whatever they decide w/ my family is their decision not my aunties or uncles, and thirdly, they preach about all that stuff about god and what not, and how they're sooo religious, then can they just please walk what they preach. anyways, thats that, and i've spent the last 2 holidays w/ just my mom and my sister and honestly, yes i do miss opening presents w/ my extened family but you know what i'm just as happy w/ my mom and my sister. i even felt bad when my mom got me a present cause i know how much she's struggling...financially. my number one motivation of graduating and getting a good paying job at the moment to help out my mom...to be able to give my sister lunch money and or money when she goes out..i hate how as simple as that i can't even provide and my mom has to be the one to do so.
anyways...back to the whole family thing....w/ my cousin getting married in august, i could only imagine how thats gonna go...a part of me doesnt want to go, mostly because of my aunties and uncles....but a part of me wants to go just to spend time w/ my cousins, niece, and nephew...and i want my sister to see them as well...gaaaah...i dont know..whatever, i guess i'll just have to wait and see.

on another note....i got back from a long vacation from vegas yesterday...went snowboarding over the weekend...and let me tell you....it was freezing up there in the mountains...registered at 9 degrees and my freakin gloves were not keeping my hands warm enough....and my face was sooo numb...next time imma buy those snow mask....and the trail was harder than what i was use to back here...hahaha...i still had fun though...maybe next time i go to vegas we can go to utah.

well another semester of school is about to start...and i hope this is my last semester at southwestern...i'm hoping to get into a nursing program at state, but the likely hood of that happening is very slim...so i might go into the RT program at grossmont...and maybe put my name on the waitlist at palomar for nursing.

as far as mike and i are concerned...we're doing great...just had our 7 months last week....he got me 7 roses when he picked me up at the airport last thursday....ate at RA sushi at the fashion mall....and stupid ass rag came yesterday and my cramps were as bad as it can be right before i had to go in through security so mike had to get an escort pass so he can go and wait w/ me at my gate till my plane arrived =)

well thats all...i still need a job =/ i hope and pray i get one soon...pleeeaaaassssseeeee. well thats all for now....good luck this semester guys.....maricel and ruff...you lucky bastards, last semester of nursing...freakin proud of you guys =) oh and vegas next month is it? what about spring break any plans yet? hahah

happy new year

i know i'm waaaay late on this but i just wanted to wish you all happy new year =) i wanted to post the video of the countdown at disneyland but both photobucket and myspace are being dumb and wont let me so if you all know any other place where i can upload please let me know...i will be posting pictures from disneyland probably tomrorow i still need to resize them all.
disneyland, was extremely tiring but fun. mike and i drove up to anaheim on saturday morning and check in at a hotel for the weekend to avoid being extra exhausted for our new year's eve day. got to the hotel around 11:30 checked in, ate our baon, watched 8 crazy nights, played spongebob monopoly for a bit then took a nap before heading over to dnbs at the block. ate dinner there and played bball. went back to the hotel and opened the present we had saved from christmas =) then we crashed for the night cause we wanted to get a full night's rest the next day. new year's eve at disneyland was extremely busy as expected, and as fun as it was, i will not go back there during that time...hahaha. i heard one of the workers say that they sold out tickets. people were camping out in front of the castle for the holidays fireworks as well for the new year's eve fireworks. it was sooo pretty they had fake snow during the holidays fireworks. mike and i watched the new year's eve fireworks by "its a small world" since they were gonna have it behind toontown =) we also watched the holiday parade at the same place...and although i didnt get a picture w/ my favorite dwarf cause he wasn't walking around the park =/ i still managed to get a picture of him during the parade =) yaaaaaaay....hahaha

well that was pretty much how i spent my last weekend of 2006. sooo bye bye 2006 and hello 2007

as far as this weekend is concerned, snowboarding is in the picture for my birthday i suppose...everything is still up in the air. if you guys have any suggestions let me know =) soju maybe...hahahah thanks jamie for introducing me to that drink...hahaha

well i'm gonna lay down now and be a bum...again happy new year to all!!!!!
