Like, how can a girl blog when the connection takes forever even on a t1 connection!!! Grrr... so I'm done with my first round of midterms, time to kick back and relax... even for a little while. I ran into a lot of people I haven't seen in a while this weekend. I don't know why they're all popping up now. Like, first David, then my friend Minal called me, then I bumped into these girls in my graduation class. It's nice and sunny today. I got to where a pretty dress today. ;) I find myself being sucked back into TV land. I watched Dawson's and Felicity and ER and XFiles last week and now I MUST watch again this week. Heehee, on Felicity, she'll be with Noel for awhile. D. Ducovhny (sp?) says he'll be back for the finale and the next XFiles movie. I'm going to see spiderman this friday. We've already gotten presale tickets. I hope to god there isn't a long line to get into the movie theatre. I had a midterm this morning that I so didn't study for, and I barely even cared either. yep, I'm ready for the school year to end... *sigh* it's only week 5... another half of a quarter hell to go. Later guys, I'm off to catch a soap. =D

PS... aww Justin... always a sweetie

Not Forgotten

They say it takes a minute to find a special person,
an hour to appreciate them,
a day to love them,
but then an entire life to forget them.
Send this phrase to the people you'll never forget and remember to send it also to the person who sent it to you. It's a short message to let them know that you'll never forget them. If you don't send it to anyone, it means you're in a hurry and that you've forgot your friends. Take the time to live and love!!

Hi guys =) Yes, I know, it's been 4-ever since I've been on this thing!! =) I tried to catch up on the blogs...=) Can you believe we're already almost into May??!! YIKES! Where on earth has time gone? Hope everyone is doing well =) I'm just procrastinating...I'm over this whole japanese thing...oh well...later gators!! =)

I watched felicity last night too. the pessimistic side of me wanted her to end up with neither of them and move on with her life already! and yes, the medical school thing was like out of left field, a total copout.

oh my goodness, felicity was soooo crazy. one minute her and ben are engaged, the next day they break up with ben moving to arizona and felicity staying in new york, then the next day they all graduate and felicity decides to not stay in new york and instead move back home...then ben and felicity sleep together, yet still move away....then it's felicity in palo alto, supposedly 6 months later, and she's decided that what she's really wanted this whole time was to be a doctor so now she's in medical school. so now, she's in school and then out of nowhere ben shows up...he followed her...now he's taking med school classes there and convinced lauren (the alcoholic witch he impregnated) to move to palo alto with him and now they will live happily ever after in palo alto...can you believe this? this is insanity....a life time of decisions crammed into a 42 minute episode. erg...and next week they're going to show what would happen if felicity had picked noel instead of ben...it's unbelievable...i never thought it would end like this...crazy. it was cool how ben and felicity ended up together...but to have her go back to medicine? the whole wonderfulness behind felicity was that she was different from everyone else...she wouldn't fall into the trap of expectations and she would be independent and free...but no, in medical school!! erg...darn you felicity...i hate you yet love you at the same time..

ok, blogging am i. let's see... midterms, they stink. work... it sucks... i guess that's the gist of it all. alright, i'm in the midst of trying to blog but i keep getting im'd so i've lost my train of thought... i took a moment to read kress's blog. i'm happy that guy passed. it's nice to hear a nice story with a happy ending. =D later dudes and dudettes

dude, you guys need to blog...this is sad...*boo hoo*

today was one of the best days ever for me... =) my student luke, whose math level is far below what it should be, passed his exam to get into a school to be a lineman for the power company. =) the first time he took the test he got a 22% and after that he came back to tutoring and i helped him for a few weeks in math...the second time he took the test he got a 64%, which was a great increase but he needed 67% to pass...so today's exam that he took was his last chance. we did lots and lots of problems (i have over 30 pages in worksheets i've made for him) and i knew he would pass but i was still anxious..
anyways, he called me and he told me that he failed...and i couldn't believe it and i was sad, but then he said that he didn't really fail...he passed! i was so excited and happy.. =) he passed with a 94%!! i couldn't believe it...he's just about the nicest guy and he worked so hard and was very diligent about coming to get tutoring. and i think in the last couple of months he started to feel more relaxed and comfortable. he told me that i was the best tutor ever and he said thank you about a million times and that i did so much for him...he was excited and i was double excited...i felt like crying. he said that he'd take a week off from tutoring and that he'd call me and we'd go from there...i'll miss him if he doesn't come back, but even if he doesn't it's ok...i'm just so happy for him... =)
it's just so amazing...it felt so incredible to know that you helped someone and changed their lives and that they appreciate you...it's just the greatest feeling in the world. so i'm happy...and i'm going to stay happy for quite a while =)

i just finished my lab report half an hour ago...and i am now reading my manual for my quiz tomorrow morning. *sigh* i really do not like molecular lab...it's just about the worst lab i've taken so far...erg. oh well. i need to wake up at 530..hmm. i think i'll read for about an hour or so then take a nap. hopefully i'll be able to wake up..hehe.

dude, i used to think my lab TA was cool but i'm pretty pissed off now. she sent out an email monday afternoon about what should be in our lab reports that are due at 8am tuesday morning..and probably, if i didn't email her, she wouldn't have mailed what she wanted in the damn report...grrr. this really sucked...cuz i couldn't check my uci email til i got home, which wasn't until 945 or so... i guess it doesn't matter cuz i'll probably get a bad grade anyway...the TA is korean and they're mainly evil, so maybe that has something to do with it too...hehe. she's really anal and picky about the work...darn her.

hello peoples...

i haven't written here in a while...but last week was pretty crappy. nothing really good happened, but hopefully this week will turn out better.. =)

Hello.

It's now 12 a.m. Looks like I'm gonna pull an all-nighter. There are going to be some big people from the business there tomorrow that want to look at our stuff. So we should have as much as possible to show them. Well... I'm gonna continue working on my project...

gee kimmy, sounds like a good idea except for the fact that it's already the weekend and no one else has read the blogger... =) seeing as how it's only the first week, i'm not too behind, although i need type up my lab for molecular on tuesday...but i have plenty of time for that. oh, and justin...to show you what the keyboard is like and how it is giving me trouble, here's a sample:

moecular bo lab is so boring it maks me want to strangl the prson who invented gel electrophoresis...

I suggest an outing this weekend. Whaddya guys say?

In other news, I'm already in need of another break from school. Although, I did get through winter quarter with semi-flying colors, so woo hoo for me! =)

so my grade for physio lab was finally submitted...a freaking B-. oh my goodness, i did not deserve a B-, i know i did better than that. I emailed the TA about what happened, and in his classic form he said that i would have to talk to the program director because he submitted his grades early. oh, i wanted to strangle him. well, before i really had to write the director, i rechecked the grades and they magically appeared tonite. ho hum..well, at least it wasn't a C right? actually, B- is pretty good for a bio lab...i'm semi-happy =)
