too bad this trip couldn't be total relaxation... but oh well. so as i signed on this morning, i checked my messages and got one from a person that i have grown attached to in the past few months. its good to know that your advice helped changed a person for the better. its a good feeling to have to have someone look up to you. its a great feeling to have to just simply be loved. its good to know y0u helped a person see whats behind what ones true intentions are. I'm not saying I'm an expert at everything, but when it comes to reading a person... shit I'm on top of it. you could be blood or not, if i don't think your true intentions are good i will sure as hell let someone know...
on another note...
as i anxiously wait for the arrival of my baby love to come get me to take me to the airport, i cant help but think of how much I'm going to miss him. i know its only a week, but shoot.. that's a week ill never get back with him. but hey, if anyone really knows me, they know i cant sit still in one spot for long. i guess i need this vacation. relieve all the stress, drama, and issues. i cant wait to come back to his arms.
one week baby... its only a week... unlike someone who left for a month and 9 days...

Drained!!!
Totally drained today, or should i say yesterday?
My morning started off at 8:20 AM when i was suppose to meet Niel's mom to get the final fitting for my trip to Canada which i leave for tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7 AM. Then Niel took me to breakfast at the omelet house. we then went to target for more stuff for my trip. back to the dress shop to pick up the dress. then mami king for lunch. as soon as we get back to the house, quickly my tire catches my eye... sure enough.. another freakin flat tire. luckily this time his brother had AAA so it didn't take long to finish it... then we went about our errands. we then ended up at my new favorite place in the world that makes me super happy...
THE CONTAINER STORE!!!
FREAKIN LOVE THAT PLACE!!! SO MANY IDEAS!!! AND TO TOP IT OFF, THAT WAS MINE AND NIEL'S FIRST DATE! (i love you baby love!). i was on this mission to find this awesome container that holds both your cereal and milk but in separate containers. i told Niel about it so he could use it for work. as soon as i got into the store, i kid you not... i turned to my right and it was the first thing that caught my eye. i was super excited when i saw it.
i suggest this to all those that love to eat cereal on the go. and the best part, it comes with a fold up spoon!
we ended our night at The Block. spent most of the night walking around into other stores when all we really wanted to do was eat and go into Virgin Records. i was already tired and i should be sleeping now. Luckily i didn't nap, so I'm hoping to get back into my early sleeping routine.
CANADA HERE I COME!!!

date night #12392374236498263
The best part of my date nights... are the conversations. Today I totally felt complete. I have to admit it has been a while since me and Niel had a conversation like we normally do. I understand he is busy with work, and I get it. I just miss the talks that we usually have.
Today we had dinner at Mario's Italian restaurant. So as our conversation was going, someone caught my eye. So I glanced over and so did he. Then I did another look and so did the guy and he approaches me and says " do i know you from somewhere?" sure enough, i used to work with the guy. The whole time I was thinking to myself "damn whats his freakin first name?" i knew his last name but i could not recall his first. Since i had worked at the high school before, i only knew everyone by their last name. it was rare if i knew their first. So it was really awkward when i had to introduce him to Niel.
after that, we went to Huntington beach to watch "Bangkok Dangerous"... great movie, (Devin you did great!!!) ... i never seen a preview for that movie, but at least it was not a waste of money like tropic thunder.
at the end, me and Niel just continue having our normal conversations about everything and anything. i must admit, the conversations we have are amazing. its great to have a conversation with someone who understands totally where your coming from and vice versa.
On another note, i had alot of time to contemplate on who you would really want part of your life. I started to think about everyone and the situations they are in, who there friends are, and what their lifestyle is. i started to back track alot and realized, i let my guard down again. My walls are up again, good luck getting over. I might of helped you gained your happiness, been your shoulder to cry on, listen to you vent over and over about yourself, but I'm done now. This is not to just one person, but the few that I have noticed lately.
As Kurt Vonnegut, Jr once said: "Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on."
(kate you are precious to me and you complete me!!!)

300 Anaheim
We went to the new bowling ally at the Anaheim GardenWalk. Nice looking place. But of course very expensive.
321 W. Katella
Anaheim, Ca 92802
714-783-2810
well lit bowling lanes with huge tv screens that play music videos while you bowl
Pool tables along with other tables and chairs
When you first walk in your greeted by the host which then asks how many people and they input your names onto your lane. Then you are escorted to where you get your shoes and balls. They size your fingers for the ball and ask what weight you prefer. Then you are given your balls and shoes and escorted to your lane. You are then greeted by your host for the night. That person is basically your waitress/waiter. You order everything through that person. By the time your done with your game, your host rings you up and gives you the bill. You leave your bowling shoes and ball at the lane and pay the tab. There is also a private room there too but it must be a min of $400.

To kick off a new season...
Words of Wisdom from Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. *
(thanks Cherish)
-----------
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Oh, never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded. But trust me, in 20 years, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine.

You are not as fat as you imagine.
Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing every day that scares you.
Sing.
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.
Floss.
Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, it's only with yourself.
Remember compliments you receive. Forget the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch.
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't.
Get plenty of calcium. Be kind to your knees. You'll miss them when they're gone.
Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Your choices are half chance. So are everybody else's.
Enjoy your body. Use it every way you can. Don't be afraid of it or of what other people think of it. It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own.
Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your living room.
Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.
Do not read beauty magazines. They will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents. You never know when they'll be gone for good.
Be nice to your siblings. They're your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on.
Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the people who knew you when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard. Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths: Prices will rise. Politicians will philander. You, too, will get old. And when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were young, prices were reasonable, politicians were noble, and children respected their elders.
Wear sunscreen. If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.
Respect your elders.
Don't expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund. Maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse. But you never know when either one might run out.
Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time you're 40 it will look 85.
*Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth. But trust me on the sunscreen."

Summer lovin 08'
So i guess you can say today is officially my last day of summer...
I did pretty much all that i wanted to accomplish by the end of my summer.. sorta.. hahaha..
From graduations, birthday parties,weddings, family chill sessions, Niel bringing me lots of stuff from his trip to PI, Vegas trip, a free room in Anaheim, night swims, fireworks spent with mine in Lakewood to his in the valley, lunch with lovers & friends, healing broken hearts, summer movies,attempting to play Layla my guitar, going to the O.C fair more than once, dodger game, eating my favorite cherries, watching the Olympics late at night, bowling nights, meeting new lovers & friends, rock band nights in the garage, in n out trips, exploring Americana, finally trying sushi, grunion run (finally), movie nights at the house, smokin my first cigar, dinner parties, getting a freakin flat tire, never ending pasta at olive garden, TOFU HOUSE!, getting a free 3 day 2 night trip to Vegas, getting a new (free) printer, ah... and the best part, when Niel makes me pasta at his house...
The only thing i yet failed to do was take my boards early, become a pro at driving a stick and learn to shoot a gun.
So here is to the end of the summer of 08', good bye hot weather and high ass gas prices!
Kate says "carpe noche!" now i think its time for "carpe Diem!"
So here i welcome the fall season. So excited for the new fall TV line up starting tomorrow... YAY FOR ALL MY SHOWS!!! not so excited for the mad study sessions.
Best of luck to my lovers & friends starting school again. To my favorite nurses who are workin hard makin that "CASH MONEY". And to those that are starting a new path of happiness...
Carpe Diem

tropic thunder???
So we finally watched tropic thunder...
at first when Niel called me asking if i wanted to watch it, i was feeling kinda iffy on it. usually if i feel that way about a movie, i know its going to suck. we saw it at the new theater in Anaheim at the garden walk... nice area.. cant wait to check out the bowling ally there :: ahem :: I'm sure its pricey too...
so the movie was "OK". it had its moments. But now i understood what the whole controversy was about with that movie. And i have to admit it wasn't very cool. I took it pretty offensive. And its funny how i was telling someone a few weeks ago how i felt towards that topic that its not funny to make fun of mentally challenged people by calling them retarded or acting out on it, but he was like whatever with it. I believe that there equal just like anyone else and for a movie to imitate something like that and think its humorous is just wrong. I knew i wasn't going to like that movie...
