Yeah, I am a freak but why state the obvious?
I was just trying to wake you up like you asked. It's not like I was frantically panicking to wake you up, I just tried my best =) Goodness Kressler, you're immersing me into a new world... Yeah, Maroon 5 this november.. the craziness continues... and so does the fun.. The nice thing is that it'll be in Anaheim so it'll be much more convenient for all of us. =) I look forward to hearing Gavin Degraw again too.. I'm so spoiled... I don't think I'll ever be able to listen to his cd with any sort of satisfaction.... Oh yes, thanks for e-mailing me the picture from the concert! By the way, don't let those kids sully the line that differntiates you from them. Forever will you be the mighty teacher, bringer of knowledge, and commander of respect! Teaching not only through words but through example as well... This is how you must think if you are to survive and bring the world a brighter tomorrow (and hopefully brighter kids as well)! -_- / *all hail*
Good Luck hunting down that elusive teacher, Kim. They're sneaky devils, they are. And the whole camera dropping and not buying anymore expensive things.. all i have to say is...... awwwwwwww.. its ok.. don't be too hard on yourself ... You shouldnt deny yourself the good things in life =) I normally don't sleep like a rock... that's unusual for me... I'm not a light sleeper but I'll normally wake up when something is being done to me or when something worthy of note happens... I guess I just feel secure around you people so I can sleep easy ^_^ although I know the absence of embarassment wont last when I see those pictures....
I hope that your ears are no longer ringing Lisa because they'll be ringing again all too soon. Hopefully the next concert will be less frantic, I'll even volunteer to drive next time around. LoL, I guess if you were to say that we make your days and nights brighter then it would be true in both the figurative and the literal sense. You certainly make ours brighter, but more in the figurative sense =) In the meantime, you should enjoy your vacation. I guess the nice thing about good things is that they all must come to an end, so you know they were good to begin with. Then again, I'm sure you miss teaching and your income a bit... I'm sure your new car is anxiously waiting for you.
And to Pat & Roo, whats up?
Clearly men and women speak different languages..

i forgot to tape the ellen show today with maroon 5...i was so tired, i completely forgot about it.. =( oh well...
today was a good school day... =)
kids were great today, that is not a shock...my master teacher was talking to me after class today and said, so when are you going to start teaching these kids? they want to see you teach, i want to see you teach...and i sort of said, uhm no one really wants to see me teach yet...and he said that yes, they all do and that out of all the student teachers he's ever had, he feels i am the most ready at this point and has the most confidence in me to teach...which is incredible to hear but doesn't make it any less petrifying for me...he has a thing about honesty and i know he wouldn't say it unless he meant it...wow, he thinks i will be a great teacher...it's scary. =)
when both of my teachers finish up this current unit on macromolecules, they have both asked me to begin some teaching with the next unit: the cell =) that may be as soon as next week...whoa.
the only other news going on in student teaching these days is that the students feel very comfortable with me. i have one vietnamese student who asked how old i was so he knew what to call me in vietnamese...i told him just don't call me ba or bac...and he asked whether he should call me chi or co...and i said, call me miss nguyen =) and then in another class, one of my students kept saying hi to me...which i thought was odd..and his friend was like, stop flirting with her...lol. kids these days...
and i usually have class at fullerton on tuesday nites, but my 4pm class had a guest speaker so we met at savannah...before class i watched katella's frosh/soph team beat savannah...yay! and then off to class, which was so awesome. the "teacher" is the district coordinator for science curriculum so she gave us so much useful info on teaching science, great ideas to use with the students in the classroom, and free supplies...we walked out with handouts, vocab stuff, root words in latin & greek to help ELL students, and packs of cards, post-its, pens, markers and so on...it was like a teacher christmas. =) now i am home, doing some homework...hehe =)
i will blog more when my homework gets boring again.. =)

P.S., I must also add a wahoo!! because I just got a reply from one of my teachers saying he will be glad to write me letters of recs! Woot, one down, another to go! Today I was supposed to go hunt down another professor to write me one but I chickened out and mobbed around in Cerritos, Westminster and Anaheim instead. Hopefully, I will get the nerve to go tomorrow or the next day. Wish me luck. :)
I went to inquire today about how much it would cost to repair my camera. The guy said it would be anywhere from $110 to $150! Geebus! That's how much the camera cost! I thought to myself I might as well go and buy a new one. So, *eep* I did. I then realized that I did not have my check book with me and it had a paycheck inside it that I needed to cash in order to have the funds for my new camera. I had left it in Lisa's car and she was gracious enough to hang out in Anaheim a little while to give it back to me. Thanks man! So what happened to my new camera after I *just* bought it?? I dropped it on the pavement of course. Boo... must not buy expensive things... must not buy expensive things... must not buy expensive things...
Dude, can we say dude?! I'm totally in for maroon 5 at hob man. By the by, I've convinced at least 1 person to go with me to see Mraz in Las Vegas. So whilst my plans to be Mrazed two days in a row were foiled, I will at least be Mrazed two times that week. :D
Albert, when you sleep, you're like a rock. Nothing wakes you up! At one point there was a camera flashing right in your face and you didn't even flinch. Deep sleeper because of such a deep soul. O_O Wait 'till you see the other pictures. Mwahaha...
We love coming over to your place Lisa. Thanks for always being such a great hostess. A+ for our faboo hostess!
Have a good week. Don't stress. Soon, the weekend will be here again!

Wow, weekends never disappeared like this before...
Thanks for cooking for us on friday lisa.. the food was great and it was still good the day after and the day after that too. Yes, tonkatsu, mochiko chicken, msg, and cantalope are all very delicious....
The concert was a blast... the House of Blues is a very different concert experience for me and I liked how everything seemed very private and personal... The atmosphere was great.. Mark Broussard (or however you spell his name) was pretty good especially since I've never heard him before... he has a bit of a country rock kinda style to him and I really dont like country but he made it work and work well too... Gavin Degraw was awesome especially when he sang "lets get it on"... so much soul.. and I think he had some of the better perfomances of the night.. a lot of his songs seem pretty mellow on his cd but in concert they all sounded pretty hardcore... the cd just doesnt have the edge of the live performance.. so that went down real easy with me... and Maroon 5 just rocked the place down and made my ears ring like no other (or maybe it was the freakin banshee who screamed with her mouth next to my ear?)... you just can't get the full experience listening to their cd, as good as it is... the added instrumental in shiver was indescribably good.. and it was great when they played "frontin" as well... so yeah, a lot of bonuses to going to a concert... yes, my 2nd concert ever was a great one... I'd like to see maroon 5 when they're not the main act though just because I like hearing their music.. not hearing their fans sing their music... o_o but yes, the concert was strong sauce!
Sorry for crashing at your place Lisa. I guess I was pretty tired... and the K's, you have a way of leaving without letting me know dont you? lol... Yeah people, it's ok to wake me up if you need to... but even still, I'm glad I got to hang out with Lisa and Kress and Roo later during the day too... and yes, thank you once again for documenting my sleeping habits... I particularly enjoyed the lil sticky on my key chain... I suspect someone with an affinity for cows and a color that resembles a light red has something to do with this... o_O? at least I wasnt snoring this time around ^_^ /
I hope you all had a good time hanging out with justin at claim jumper and I hope you all ate your fill too =9 How did the couple enjoy their gift basket? I hope you all enjoyed your weekends too

Friends was not that good today. I really can't get on board with this Joey and Rachel thing. However, I did enjoy the shennanigans of our other Friends. :)
If we are characters from a comic book, it would be more like:
kressler THE peacemaker...
rodel THE performer...
lisa THE big shot...
kim THE intellectual...
albert THE life of the party...
pat THE romantic...
I'm hungry again. I can't keep eating so late at night! I am enjoying my vacation way too much. Pretty soon I WILL be a cow. Moo...
Yesterday was a horrendous work day. Patients were yelling, insurance companies were being a pain in the arse... baah. Today was better, plus, I got paid today. :) Tomorrow is a nice little day off and then, Maroon 5 on saturday! Another faboo weekend to look forward to.
*cow dance*

ok, grrr...for some reason i can never watch videos from vh1 on my computer!!!! the picture freezes and all i see is mraz holding a piggy bank as he continues to sing his song =). lol. oh well, i'm not meant to ever see another music video again =). i did see the guy dressed as a chicken in the beginning though ;)
i can't wait for the queer eyes! =) and the weekend festivities =) and all that is mraz coming up =) gosh, so much to look forward too! =) lol
ah, albert....no pencil! why didn't you just tap the person next to you and borrow one?! lol...refill led huh? =) very creative, although it must have looked rather odd...but then again, i don't know about you bio people...;) (ok ok, i know i'm outnumbered! don't hurt me! =) ). but i am glad you feel good about your test =)
bone marrow! guys, isn't that painful?! oh gee, now you guys are giving the love =) all i gave was a tiny pint of blood =)
hmmm....i'm the big shot so....i need something big shot-like to say...hmmm....ah....the food friday will be #&*@ing fantastic! *wink*

Hmmm... Blogging Mania... when you look back over the entries, a good half of them are yours kress... I think you're the most active person here....
I watched the You & I Both video on vh1.com...
I'm sorry but I think it edges closer to craptastic than it does fantastic.. but... if you look down the screen a bit they have actual videos of him performing his songs and I thought those were great... especially haflway home! Yeah, that song is great.. and to think.. it was the second song he ever wrote... hurrah for halfway home!
I also went around looking for other videos to watch... I liked the harder to breathe video by maroon 5... I think the video did a good job of capturing the song's feeling...
So yes, today was an interesting day... I took a bio test.. and I think I did pretty good on it... but in my rush to leave this morning I forgot to bring a pencil for the scantron section... O_O So I dug through my backpack and found one of those lead refill containers and used a stick of .7mm lead to fill in that portion of the test... I wonder if anyone noticed...... Too bad I dont keep spare erasers in my backpack though...
I made myself a cappucino too.. dont be impressed though.. it was one of those instant mix sort of things combined with the power of a blender... twas good... I don't like the taste of coffee if its too strong.. i'm one of those people who likes their coffee with sugar and cream or better yet condensed milk... I also like it cold... I'm not much of a hot drink person.... I think it's because a frozen tongue doesnt hurt like a burnt one hurts... =Þ
Hmmm.. by the way...
kressler is a peacemaker...
rodel is a performer...

It sounds like we're some uncanny group from a comic book or movie... especially since no one has the same description...
Oh yeah, Pat turns out to be a Romantic according to the numerology post. So yes, 6 people, 9 possibilities... no overlap... what an odd bunch we are! Then again, I don't think this whole numerology business is too accurate... I'm sure there is a little bit of each type in us all... but even the use of broad generalities fails here... boo on you numerology!

i think three sheets is enough. do we need t-shirts? i can get them on friday. no work, woo hoo.
i'd like to give blood one day, however, they require a minimum weight of which i do not possess. to compensate, i am a registered bone marrow donor and i have the pink organ donor sticker on my driver's license. :)
so i have missed two queer eyes in a row. that means on friday, i get to watch two. *grin*
do you think it's wrong to eat at 12am in the morning? i had a early dinner and didn't eat anything after i got home from work and now my poor tummy is growling. i have a general rule to not eat after 10, but jeebus, i'm hungry. instant noodle it is.
okay guys, 4 days until Maroon 5, everyone rejoice. :D

Ah yes, there's nothing like a little late night blogging...
I've been trying to be good about sleep lately. Yes, instead of using my weekend to rest up for my week, I'll use my week to rest up for my weekend... hehe.. I guess it's one of the fringe benefits of hanging with the mopkroo!
Hehehe.. Yes, I'm glad no one came out into the hall way while I was sleeping. I'm sure your parent's impression of me would have changed if they had caught me passed out in your hall way with my feet on your tile, kress. Yeah, I want to have a listen to the recording. We should tape all of our snores and have a game of "Guess who's snore?" It's also funny because according to the numerology thing, I'm supposed to be the life of the party. Oh yes people... thats me .. the life of the party... sleeping in kress' hallway...
hehe.. congrats on your first time donating blood... I tried to when I was in high school but they said my veins werent big enough =P ... Yeah, i was rejected because I have weak sauce veins... although I still got to feast upon juice and cookies ^_^ / Hmmm? what blood type are you lisa? I dunno what blood type I am...
screw the book men are from mars and women are from venus... all it takes is two sentences...
Girls are crazy.
Boys are stupid.

You know what the funniest part about you snoring at Kress' place was, Albert? It was that you were doing it in the middle of her hallway. Her parents could've come out and been, wtf? Heehee... Actually, you needn't worry about the picture. I took it with my phone and it did not come out well so I deleted it. However, I do still have the recording. Mwahaha :)
I turned out to be a 7. Intellectual, eh? It doesn't exactly fit the bill but it sounds nice. Kim the Intellectual. *L*
Rodel, haven't you learned yet? Girls are crazy!
Kress, I never got to hear the story of how you had to dial 911 at the office.

Your birth date describes who we are, what we
are good at and what our inborn abilities are.
It also points to what we have to learn and the
challenges we are facing. To figure out your
Birth Number, add all the numbers in the birth
date together like in the example until there
there is only one digit... A Birth Number does
not prevent you from being anything you want to
be, it will just color your choice differently
and give you a little insight. Once you have
discovered your Birth Number, forward this email
to the rest of your friends, including the one
who sent this to you ...Have fun!
Example: March 20, 1950: 3 + 2+0 + 1+9+5+0 =
20 = 2 + 0 = 2 >>>> 2 is the Birth
Number to read for the birth > date in the
example. > > See below for who you are: Your
number is _____,
#1 THE ORIGINATOR
1's are originals. Coming up with new ideas and
executing them is natural. Having things their
own way is another trait that gets them as being
stubborn and arrogant. 1's are extremely honest
and do well to learn some diplomacy skills. They
like to take the initiative and are often
leaders
or bosses, as they like to be the best. Being
self-employed is definitely helpful for them.
Lesson to learn: Others' ideas might be just as
good or better and to stay open minded.
Famous 1's: Tom Hanks, Robert Redford,
HulkHogan,
Carol Burnett, Wynona Judd, Nancy Reagan, and
Raquel Welch
#2 THE PEACEMAKER
2's are the born diplomats. They are aware of
others' needs and moods and often think of
others
before themselves. Naturally analytical and very
intuitive they don't like to be alone.
Friendship
and companionship is very important and can lead
them to be successful in life, but on the other
hand they'd rather be alone than in an
uncomfortable relationship. Being naturally shy
they should learn to boost their self-esteem and
express themselves freely and seize the moment
and not put things off...
Famous 2's: President Bill Clinton, Madonna,
Whoopi Goldberg, Thomas Edison, and Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart.
#3 THE LIFE OF THE PARTY
3's are idealists. They are very creative,
social, charming, romantic, and easygoing. They
start many things, but don't always see them
through. They like others to be happy and go to
great lengths to achieve it. They are very
popular and idealistic . They should learn to
see
the world from a more realistic point of view.
Famous 3's: Alan Alda, Ann Landers, Bill Cosby,
Melanie Griffith, Salvador Dali, and Jodi
Foster.
#4 THE CONSERVATIVE
4's are sensible and traditional. They like
order
and routine... They only act when they fully
understand what they are expected to do. They
like getting their hands dirty and working hard.
They are attracted to the outdoors and feel an
affinity with nature. They are prepared to wait
and can be stubborn and persistent. They should
learn to be more flexible and to be nice to
themselves.
Famous 4's: Neil Diamond, Margaret Thatcher,
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tina Turner, Paul Hogan,
and Oprah Winfrey.
#5 THE NONCONFORMIST
5's are the explorers. Their natural curiosity,
risk taking, and enthusiasm often land them in
hot water. They need diversity, and don't like
to
be stuck in a rut. The w hole world is their
school and they see a learning possibility in
every situation. The questions never stop. They
are well advised to look before they take action
and make sure they have all the facts before
jumping to conclusions.
Famous 5's: Abraham Lincoln, Charlotte Bronte,
Jessica Walter, Vincent Van Gogh, Bette Midler,
Helen Keller and Mark Hamil.
#6 THE ROMANTIC
6's are idealistic and need to feel useful to be
happy. A strong family connection is important
to
them. Their emotions Influence their decisions.
They have a strong urge to take care of others
and to help. They are very loyal and make great
teachers. They like art or music. They make
loyal
friends who take the friendship seriously. 6's
should learn to differentiate between what they
can change and what they cannot.
Famous 6's: Albert Einstein, Jane Seymour, John
Denver, Meryl Streep, Christopher Columbus, and
Goldie Hawn.
#7 THE INTELLECTUAL
7's are the searchers. Always probing for hidden
information, they find it difficult to accept
things at face value. Emotions don't sway their
decisions. Questioning everything in life, they
don't like to be questioned themselves. They're
never off to a fast start, and their motto is
slow and steady wins the race. They come across
as philosophers and being very knowledgeable,
and
sometimes as loners. They are technically
inclined and make great researchers uncovering
information. They like secrets. They live in
their own world and should learn what is
acceptable and what not in the world at large...
Famous 7's: William Shakespeare, Lucille Ball,
Michael Jackson, Joan Baez, and Princess Diana.
#8 THE BIG SHOT
8's are the problem solvers. They are
professional, blunt and to the point, have good
judgment and are decisive. They have grand plans
and like to live the good life. They take charge
of people. They view people objectively. They
let
you know in no uncertain terms that they are the
bosses. They should learn to exude their
decisions on their own needs rather than on what
others want.
Famous 8's: Edgar Cayce, Barbara Streisand,
George Harrison, Jane Fonda, Pablo Picasso,
Aretha Franklin, and Nostrodamus
#9 THE PERFORMER.
9's are natural entertainers. They are very
caring and generous, giving away their last
dollar to help.With their charm, they have no
problem making friends and nobody is a stranger
to them. They have so many different
personalities that people around them have a
hard
time understanding them. They are like
chameleons, ever changing and blending in. They
have tremendous luck, but also can suffer from
extremes in fortune and mood. To be successful,
they need to build a loving foundation.
Famous 9's: Albert Schweitzer, Shirley MacLaine,
Harrison Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Elvis Presley

Don't fret too much about it roo. We all know you're a good friend and that your heart was in the right place. Life's just weird and people are unnecessarily complicated so you might as well live with a smile on your face.
Hmmm Kress... I'm not sure if I can trust your review due to your very slight biases =) If I were you I would be demanding the other 40% of the album... 10 songs just doesnt seem to be a lot of John Mayer goodness... Maroon 5 were rushed for 2 more songs and they turned out great... I think they should've done the same to señor mayer... some of the greatest things come under pressure... like diamonds....
And what I meant on the "we all live very close" commentary is that we shouldn't take the fact for granted.. we're all a hop and a skip away. So if you ever want to hang then it's really no problem. Besides, I really honest-to-goodness like driving so I have no reservations about driving up to see you people especially since you seem so close and there's cheaper gas in your neck of the woods. Although, yes, another trip to Onami would be nice.... I wont be foolish this time though. I'm gonna have my green tea before I have my dessert plate.
Oh yes, and it wasnt the crashing that was bothering me... it was the thought of disturbing you with my unpleasant snoring. I'm going to have to put tiles on your wall just so I can sleep on my side or stomach... never want to sleep on my back again! And DARN you kim! and thank you at the same time.... I want to know what I sound like when I snore... I hope its not god-awful.... but still... DARN YOU! (guh.. the picture of me sleeping.. i know i'm not going to like that.... I should've used up all your film when I had the chance) Though I am sorry your plans for getting mrazmerized two days in a row fell through. San Francisco is just a hop,skip, and jump away too (plus the roadtrip there has pretty nice scenery especially if you leave at a good time of day... plus there's one place along the way there where there's just an ocean of cowage)
It's kinda scary this whole resemblance between Andy and I thing.... In fact... it's very scary... and weird too. Especially since you (kress) made me your honorary bro. Does he like Maroon 5? o_O? Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing Maroon 5 this weekend because their music certainly hits the spot more often than not, but I hope that you all have a good week in the meantime.

Forget it, Cherry is mad about that episode from the first week of school where she didn't want anything to do with her bf at that moment, obviolusly i was worried about her and that she took it the wrong way because everyone else knew about it and it wasn't important and that everyone shouldn't have known. Fine, if you care for someone that doens't care for you back, then its useless. Just let it go and let it be.
whoa..so a long time ago i said i would blog my review and i did not...so this post i shall...hooray! =)
=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=
*clarity* - this is the song!! you know how you get a brand new cd, listen to the whole thing and then every time after that you skip to the song you want to listen to first cuz it's that good?? well, that is clarity for me...i love the *ooh woo ooh...* stuff, the piano, the horns, the words...i love it all! a song about how things are usually fuzzy and nonsensical, but you have that moment when everything just seems to be crisp and clear [when you find that right person perhaps?]
*bigger than my body* - this is the only song off of "heavier things" that i have allowed myself to listen to prior to album release. you know how great i think it is... =) especially since i was in the video...hehe, but i do think it's great. a lot different from everything else on the album i think...very high pitched and upbeat tempo...but i like the premise behind it - how something can be so overwhelming but great that it's just bigger than you... =)
*something's missing* - so we've heard this one around [live] for a while...and it's on AGT, but now we have a studio version...and i must say it kicks ass. i've liked this song since i've first heard it...cuz i used to feel the exact same way as the song describes. technically in high school i had it all...friends, a family, grades, and everything going my way but i often felt like i had nothing or things were just wrong in my life...i could never figure it out but i just felt bummed out...and this song really exemplifies those times...ahh john, how you sing my life with your words.. =)
*new deep* - oh goodness, this song just kicks fat, flabby ass!! it's very ironic...cuz it talks about how instead of being all analytical and deep, you're going to be very surface superficial...which is odd, because if you have analyze things and say you are going to be like that, doesn't that say that you're still overanalytical..? did that make sense at all? hehe..i think john is trying to confuse us and of course it's working...but i love the music on this one...this almost hits home too. i always tell myself to lighten up and i'm not going to be so over the top...but i have to keep obsessively telling myself that..lol
*come back to bed* - this is probably one of my least favorite of the album but that still puts it high above non-mayer music. i don't know about this one...i like the album version ok and i like the live version ok too...maybe that's the conflict..hehe =) i like the words...but it's a slow ballady song...i wouldn't mind if rodel sang it to me after we had a tiff..hehe =)
*home life* - what an awesome song!! it's been growing on me...it has a nice little groove to it and i like the story behind it, although i find it hypocritical...does john want to give up the nomadic lifestyle music has given him to live a 9-5 life? i doubt it...but i still love the song and it makes me sway happily.. =)
*split screen sadness* - i feel like this song is what happened before the story of "in your atmosphere" [and i am still saddened that it didn't make the album]. this song has also grown on me...i like it more each time i listen to it. "two wrongs make it all alright tonite" hehe...maybe that's how it is when you're separated and you shouldn't be together but you are...ho hum. love is sadness sometimes..
*daughters* - "boys would be gone without warmth from a woman's good, good heart" it's very odd to have a song that gives you advice, but it's a cute one. i do like this one, but maybe not as much as the others...maybe because my parents were not as good to their daughter as they are to their son...oh yes, i am a bitter bug. hehe...but it's a good song.. =)
*only heart* - i haven't been too hip on this one either, but it doesn't mean i don't like it. i do, i do!! maybe it's the music...it feels a little twangy or something...i don't know. but i like it more now than when i first heard it..."you've got my only heart" hehe...i like the lyrics. a nice diddly of a song...
*wheel* - love this one!! a perfect way to end the album. "i believe that my life's gonna see the love i give returned to me" john put a lot of heart and emotion into this one and i think it is fitting to end with such a bittersweet message. i love it live, solo and acoustic. =)
OVERALL a fantastic album!! i love all the songs, especially as i listen to it more and more...they all make my heart pump a little harder and put a smile on my face... =) i wish there were more songs on the album but it's ok...a lot of heart went into it and that's all that matters..hehe. can't wait to hear the new songs live...john, come to LA and sing clarity for me!! =)
=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=
*clarity* - this is the song!! you know how you get a brand new cd, listen to the whole thing and then every time after that you skip to the song you want to listen to first cuz it's that good?? well, that is clarity for me...i love the *ooh woo ooh...* stuff, the piano, the horns, the words...i love it all! a song about how things are usually fuzzy and nonsensical, but you have that moment when everything just seems to be crisp and clear [when you find that right person perhaps?]
*bigger than my body* - this is the only song off of "heavier things" that i have allowed myself to listen to prior to album release. you know how great i think it is... =) especially since i was in the video...hehe, but i do think it's great. a lot different from everything else on the album i think...very high pitched and upbeat tempo...but i like the premise behind it - how something can be so overwhelming but great that it's just bigger than you... =)
*something's missing* - so we've heard this one around [live] for a while...and it's on AGT, but now we have a studio version...and i must say it kicks ass. i've liked this song since i've first heard it...cuz i used to feel the exact same way as the song describes. technically in high school i had it all...friends, a family, grades, and everything going my way but i often felt like i had nothing or things were just wrong in my life...i could never figure it out but i just felt bummed out...and this song really exemplifies those times...ahh john, how you sing my life with your words.. =)
*new deep* - oh goodness, this song just kicks fat, flabby ass!! it's very ironic...cuz it talks about how instead of being all analytical and deep, you're going to be very surface superficial...which is odd, because if you have analyze things and say you are going to be like that, doesn't that say that you're still overanalytical..? did that make sense at all? hehe..i think john is trying to confuse us and of course it's working...but i love the music on this one...this almost hits home too. i always tell myself to lighten up and i'm not going to be so over the top...but i have to keep obsessively telling myself that..lol
*come back to bed* - this is probably one of my least favorite of the album but that still puts it high above non-mayer music. i don't know about this one...i like the album version ok and i like the live version ok too...maybe that's the conflict..hehe =) i like the words...but it's a slow ballady song...i wouldn't mind if rodel sang it to me after we had a tiff..hehe =)
*home life* - what an awesome song!! it's been growing on me...it has a nice little groove to it and i like the story behind it, although i find it hypocritical...does john want to give up the nomadic lifestyle music has given him to live a 9-5 life? i doubt it...but i still love the song and it makes me sway happily.. =)
*split screen sadness* - i feel like this song is what happened before the story of "in your atmosphere" [and i am still saddened that it didn't make the album]. this song has also grown on me...i like it more each time i listen to it. "two wrongs make it all alright tonite" hehe...maybe that's how it is when you're separated and you shouldn't be together but you are...ho hum. love is sadness sometimes..
*daughters* - "boys would be gone without warmth from a woman's good, good heart" it's very odd to have a song that gives you advice, but it's a cute one. i do like this one, but maybe not as much as the others...maybe because my parents were not as good to their daughter as they are to their son...oh yes, i am a bitter bug. hehe...but it's a good song.. =)

uhm, so all that stuff i was supposed to blog...yeah, well, i obviously told you all about it at disneyland so i don't really need to do it again...although i will reiterate how much i truly love being in the classroom...despite the semi-bad behavior, the inappropriate questions and my weak sauce teacher voice.. =)
disneyland was quite fun mokroopals...hooray!! although disneyland seems to be deteriorating, it was great...i like DCA and matterhorn/indianajones/pirates are never a bad thing.. =) the best thing at disneyland? frozen lemonade...hehe =) it is a must whenever i go...
MAROON 5 NEXT WEEKEND!! how very, very exciting it shall be...hooray!!
and another HOORAY!! cuz albertaco is blogging with us now... =) albert, what exactly is this commentary on how close we are to one another supposed to mean? i know we all live close to one another, relatively speaking...are you trying to tell us we should drive in your direction some time? hehe.. =) i feel guilty to make you drive up here all the time...maybe we should all go to lake forest more often. actually, lisa and i were discussing ONAMI and how we both wanted to go again...up to the 6 plate challenge...and green tea ice cream??? =) i think i can do a 6 half-plate challenge...but you shouldn't underestimate my bottomless pit stomach. =)
it's ok that you and kim crashed at my house...it seems to be the trend, or at lisa's...hehe. kim or rodel are usually passed out on my bed...you can have the floor and cool tiling. =) and i know you don't like the FACT that you snore albert..hehe, but i've had to own up to my snoring [very bitterly] and so you shall...hehe =) and yes, kim did record you and took a picture of you..lol =)
i hope patrick and mary jane had fun with us yesterday, and had fun today...although we wouldn't know since one of the mokroopals doesn't like to blog and his name rhymes with "hat trick" =) ikea was fun...i took andy with us...hehe. that kid...my mom was going to let him stay home by himself, but he wanted to go because he said he never gets to go to ikea...lol =) he also likes to watch queer eye with me...and loves the melee...he's like some sort of mini-version of albert. =) his favorite color is green as well...freaky.
anyways, the emmys are over now and it was not entertaining or exciting...ho hum. i have school tomorrow...i look forward to going to school with each passing day...that must be good. =) and although i still get butterflies thinking about teaching on my own, i'm not nervous in front of the class...we will see whether i kick ass or get my ass kicked...hehe =) anyways, this post is long...and probably too much to read...hehe =) more laters..

holy smokes, new blogger alert. :)
i went to joann's today. damn the craft stores. my primary purpose was to look for stick-on paper so that i could start expressing my philosophies on t-shirts. i found the paper, however, i could not find fabric that i liked, so i started wandering over to the scrapbook section and was mowed down by the sales. like, all the paper was on sale!! so i bought hords and now i will soon be off to scrapbook some more.
we threw huong a suprise party for her 21st bday on friday, and then her bf had a suprise bday dinner for her tonight at Bobby McGees. I had never eaten there before but I totally loved it. it was great dining experience, especially for birthdays. foil and balloon hats and everything. :D
so during this week i WILL write my personal statement. i WILL i say!

mmmmm... 10 hours of sleep in one night feels so good...
I can finally blog with you people now. Thanks Kress!
Yes, Disneyland was good times even if most of the rides were broken down. I guess that's the nice thing about DCA though, since it's new nothing is really broken or down. Although I think it would have been better if I had gotten 10 hours of sleep the night before disney as opposed to the night after =P Yeah, sorry for dying at your place kress and snoring too.. =( I DONT CARE IF IT'S NATURAL!!!
It's strange but none of us are really that far apart even with a bit of traffic. I'm about half an hour away from kress, roo, & kim. I'm about 15 minutes away from Lisa. Lisa is about 20-25 minutes away from kroo and maybe 10 from Pat. It's just something to keep in mind.
Have fun at Ikea those of you who are going; have fun at Disney again roo; have fun with MJ Pat.....

howdy hey mokroopals... =)
very cool that you guys are goin to mraz in SF... =) we'll all have fun at the LA show and then see lisa & kimmy off to SF for mrazmania... =) too bad i'm being responsible and not going..hehe
it's like a week and a half til maroon 5...cha cha cha =) we've gone to a concert like every month...albert says we need one for october, so be on the lookout! lol =) today i am tired...tuesday is my most tiring day hence my previous blog...and wednesday is still bad but better than tuesday...tomorrow should be pretty ok...school in the day, tutoring at nite. it will be good... =) right now i need to make a list of things to go over with my master teacher...so i can figure out what the hell to do [logistically speaking of course]
and kimmy...another word for forever... => eternal, perpetual, limitless, boundless, endless...
and now i'm returning back to yesterday and my list.. =)
mraz-mania...how cool is it that he's coming to LA?? whoa..more crazy trips into LA. =) we need to get tickets first...be on the lookout as to when they are on sale guys!!! and as for SF...whoa. you guys are mraz maniacs...planning a trip based on his concert...hehe, i don't know if i could do that with mayer.. =) well, maybe i would after i get some money..hehe =) that's really cool that you guys are going though...imagine, seeing mraz in LA on friday nite...get a little rest then drive/fly up to SF early the next day, peruse the city, see mraz yet again and party harty into the nite and leave sunday...sounds like good times.. =)
why substitutes suck...ok, so one of my master teachers has been sick [she has a medical condition] and has missed almost an entire week. so the students have had a different substitute each day...within five days, they've watched 3 videos and had two days or book worksheets. i know they are bored out of their mind...and when bored, they will disrupt!! the sub today was good at keeping them settled down and they were primarily good for him...but yesterday's sub...aiya!! it was a bad day..plus it was tuesday, a double whammy!! yesterday the sub was a short, asian woman with a very heavy accent...kids made fun, didn't listen, broke a bunch of classroom rules, yada yada...oh yes, i had to bust out the mean, loud teacher voice...more than once. cripes. well, the bio class was ok but the life science...good gracious. but they seemed to listen when i told them, which is nice...i'll have to work on it though and find out how i can get this detention thing going for me...can you believe a kid offered me candy when there's a no food rule in the class? lol..i thought it was funny but i knew it was wrong, so i had to be stern...but yeah, it was funny. having subs suck because these kids have only had about a week of real instruction while having a week of random, sub work...so boo on that. but i hope my teacher feels better... =)
why lesson planning sucks...it sucks because it takes so damn long to write, and when you become a teacher you never have to write this crap format out ever again...but we do it now. i hate it...so time consuming and all...however, my lesson plan that i presented went extremely well...i was being critiqued, but the teacher had no critiques for me...gave me all positive input on my presentation and so did my classmates...very awesome. i haven't met one person who's had a biology teacher use the "cell city" comparison...yet when i told my master teacher, he was like...oh yeah, that's a classic...been around forever. hehe...dude, i thought i had an innovative thing going on and he's saying it's ancient...why haven't i seen anyone do it? well, the version i found was very basic...i spruced it up a bit, adding my own critical thinking questions and art ideas...so hooray! now my fellow science student teachers and i must present on friday to our district group...the human translation project. =)
why computers suck...ok, well, they've always sucked. i dislike computers...for reasons that probably have nothing to do with the computer..hehe. my graphics are crap...i try to watch my mayer online video stuff and it's impossible...fortunately i was able to get a download version..hooray...but i have a slow connection...boo. when i get a job, i will have cable tv and cable modem damn it!! anyways...so there's a mini-rant...and another reason for computer hate is the fact that i must take a computer multimedia class for education...and do a bunch of assignments with good old microsoft office. great..more time on the computer...i'm blind already thank you very much. and as i sit here, my screen hursts my eyes because i'm tired and i don't like computers...so i type this with my eyes closed...how am i doing?? hehe... =)
anyways, that's a whole lot of typed stuff with no real substance. means it's time for bed now...so goodnite to all... =)

boo on those who will not travel with me to sf to watch mraz... ;)
in other news, my lil bro went out on his first date last week. *gasp* i was shocked and excited at the same time. jeebus, he went out on a date at an earlier age than i did!!
me knee hurts on and off, and as of now, it's hurting. boo...
my conviction in singledom and separation from mean boys has been recently reaffirmed. to toast it, i made another bet with vikki that i'd last another year without a bf. and my plans for "guys are dumb" and "guys are mean" t-shirts are nicely moving forward. :)
i was working on my apps today, and not to toot my own horn or anything, but i realized how much work i did. i mean, all those classes in three years? was i on crack or something?
finally saw "the remedy" video today on vh1. mraz is so cute in blazers and t-shirts. woo hoo! i'm so happy! mraz is going to be in california in nov! my birthday month will start off merrily. the countdown begins now.
72 days until kim no longer requires assistance in consuming alcoholic beverages (can you believe it's less than 100 days from now??)
51 days until mraz in LA
5 days until Disneyland :)

This vacation thing is going to turn me into the ultimate couch potato. Today I woke up at 1, mostly due to the fact that I didn't come home until 4am, and laid around all day doing nothing but watch lots of cable. I did NOT clean my room, work on my scrapbook or my personal statement... oh well, it was sunday today. I'll just get on those things manana. For now, I'm off to watch VH1 in hopes of catching Jason Mraz. :)

Good job pink cow. I'm pretty sure that somewhere in that feeling that you will miss UCI and the other says good riddence. Right now i'm at the union at 7:24 pm and there about 40-50 people here watching Anime, so if you want to come by on Thursday's at 7, Anime is playing. So yeah, as for classes, i certainly like them, Web Page Design, Filipino Language and Culture, Money and Banking, and Macroecnomic Theory. That's it hope to see you all very soon.
So, as of today, I can finally say that I am an official UCI college graduate. Yipee for me. :) I thought I would start off my new found freedom by partaking in exessive amounts of lounging around, however, my boss at work got me all worked up about applications and all, so as of tonight I've already begun downloading and filling out applications. *sigh* So reminiscent of not so long ago when I was stressing out over applications not so different from this one. The only difference was that I only filled out 1 application and checkmarked four boxes. Now I'm filling out like tens of them. Not to mention that there is also this online app. that nearly all the schools require to be done, yet in the supplemental apps that we are also required to do, we are basically filling out the same info. Bah...
The most stressful part of it all, of course, or the letter of recs. My boss says not to worry my pretty little head off for he will write me a superbly glowing one. Now I've got to deal with college profs. Fear shivers within in. I have one professor who told the class that he would gladly write anyone a rec if they wanted. I also asked my Spanish prof today if he would write me one. He said sure, except that this last class I had with him may have been the last class he was teaching at UCI. Bah...
So on the honors, awards and merits sections of the apps, I must leave them blank, for I had none. Wasn't graduating in 3 years enough? I'll probably have to BS my way through the extracurricular activities part. *sigh* Remember in High School when we all had extracurricular activites up the wazoo?
As I was leaving UCI today after selling my spanish book back to the bookstore, I actually felt a little glib of sadness that was quickly erased as I was stuck in traffic in the parking structure outside of the Student Center. Dumbass drivers... Just think guys, never again will I have to endure 8/9am traffic commutes to school or 4/5pm traffic commutes home. Tomorrow, I don't have to wake up early to be somewhere. I can just sleep in until 1 when I have to get ready for work. Ah... a good life I look extremely forward to. :)

God, I dislike my math classes, but it seems like its too late to just drop them and get econ classes, they seem more fun and all. I just had a big headache today trying to keep up in every class, but I'm like so sleepy and hungry, it's not funny, and I can't concentrate. All I can concentrate is Filipino class and web design.

ooh..ok, so i forgot to post before...but in computer class when i should have been "brainstorming" i was watching my video...and these two girls saw me watching john...and one of them was like, that's cool you were in the video...i went to pepsi smash. turns out she went to pepsi smash with jason mraz and maroon 5!! hehe..she said it was awesome...and that she used to see jason in the coffee circuit and seeing him live now isn't the same cuz it costs so much and he's famous now..she said he used to have a beer with her after the shows and emailed him just as a friend...but at pepsi smash, she was yelling and waving and he didn't even recognize her. this saddened me... =( he's too famous already guys!!
and i just downloaded high quality version of my video so i can obsessively watch it over and over...lol. i have definitely seen my shoes twice...and a quick shot of the back of my head/shoulders/back...but i want to tape it from tv to be sure...*sigh* i'm really pathetic guys...do you know how many times i had to watch this stupid video to see my tennis shoes? lol...oh well. and i've decided the main girl isn't so bad looking, but her clothes are just way too tight...and there's a girl in a pink tank standing next to john in the last crowd shots that just about every girl at the shoot hated....she was such a fan-whore, going up to john and being touchy-feelly with him between takes...boo on her. hehe...i believe this is the girl john made the shower comment about..lol. anyways, yes...that is all for now.

justin...
the original mokrooton will always be the original, but let's be realistic here. you'll always be our friend, but when was the last time you honestly spent time with us? i can easily say months...and sometimes we invite you and you don't come...and sometimes when you do come, you're so absorbed with sharon, you ignore the rest of us in your presence. and this was all while you were dating...now that you're married, you are even more isolated from us than before.
the premise behind "mokrooton" was that we all spent a lot of time together...a bunch of really close friends who spend a lot of time together. we didn't push you out of the group...you voluntarily left, most likely to greener pastures. i spend a lot of time with rodel, lisa, kim [more so than before even..] and now we all spend lots of time with patrick and albert, hence mokroopal. like i said before, it doesn't mean you're not our friend...we're all your friend and happy for both you & sharon. my words may seem harsh and i'm sorry if they are...but i feel like you ditched us. you have a different life now...it's just not the same. mokrooton is the original...version 1.0

THIS IS THE SECOND POST...FIRST ONE WAS ON 8/22.
Hey guys. I've moved on? No longer MOKROOTON? I know I've been missing for a while... but I was in the middle of sorting things out with the parents (you all know the situation).
Anyways, wouldn't me getting married means that we should add a name (Sharon)... not taking mine out?????

lol. I played tennis today at 8 am, an hour and a half later than I would have played before. I had a great sweat going, and saw the calories flying off my skin. But now i'm ready to go to the beach. Patrick just paged me about him and MJ being official. I hope much happiness to them two. What's up with the parties til 3 am in the morning yesterday, lol, just kidding, i was up til about 12:30 am but i was hecka tired and I do have to revise my filipino clubs website tonight, that's a much a do for work and all, but i'm excited that I'm going to school tomorrow and seeing many people, talking about their summers, and talking about ISSSUES. Yes, I don't understand why people have to have issues, and not have fun. Maybe things aren't going to what they planned and thats why theirs decension. We really don't need to go thru this emotional stuff, you probably need to know the facts and just get on in life, cause you are not going to go anywhere, complaining. I'll tell you the juicy details later. I'm trying to get an evener tan cause i'm like appauled at my foot tan, it's pretty gross, if you haven't noticed, and i'm also trying to get my upper arms in as well. I've finally concluded my tennis for the club for four months, and trying to stay away from my Yonex racket, it was indeed giving me the most wrist problems. I had no problem today using Kress's Babolat Pure Drive Plus and I had no wrist problems as I ended the tennis day. But i'm going to have weight training class on saturdays, so I hope to bulk up, or at least tone up, for January. That's pretty much it. =)
