The dawn is breaking, a light shining through. You’re barely waking and I’m tangled up in you, yeah. When I’m open, you're closed. Where I follow, you’ll go. I worry I won't see your face light up again. Even the best fall down sometime. Even the wrong words seem to rhyme. Out of the doubt that fill[ed] my mind, I somehow [found], you and I...collide. I’m quiet, you know. You make a first impression, but I’ve found I’m scared to know [you're] always on [my] mind. Even the best fall down sometime. Even the stars refuse to shine. Out of the back you fall in time-- I somehow [found] you and I...

Collide.



Don’t stop here. I lost my place--I’m close behind. Well, even the best fall down sometimes. Even the wrong words seem to rhyme. Out of the doubt that [filled] your mind, you finally find you and I collide.

Finally find you and I collide.
You finally find you and I collide.

i can do it, i can do it. =) TIME MANAGEMENT shall be the key to my survival. Oh, by the way, the picture above was taken at the mountains during winterbreak ;) I'm exhausted.

i can do it!
i can do it!

Okay, time to discuss some more evolutionary discoveries with Mr. Darwin over a cup of tea.

Hi.

So, I'm back in San Diego.
2/3 of the way done with sophmore year...2 (maybe 3) more years to go. And I haven't decided what I want to do with my life. Is that bad? Hrm. Oh well, i have two more years to sort things out. On a lighter note, winter break was amazing. =) I miss some people already. It was fun, nonetheless. I was able to do a lot more than i could hope for. ^_~

Also, things eventually do fall into place...
sometime, even back to exactly how they were before. =)



jellyfishy! we went to the Long Beach aquarium.
it was so fun! Its unfortunate that we didn't see DUCKS or TURTLES, hah.


so many pretty-ful fishies. *chomps!


seahorse!


a pretty little bird randomly perched on his hand!!
(something rare! they only perch on your hand if you
had this honey-sugar cup that you buy from the aquarium)
I guess ben charms not just the ladies, but also the birds. ;)


My first time at Melting Pot! It was supposed to be a surprise
thing that ben did, but i ended up squeezing it out of him. hehe,
but hey, at least i got to eat chocolate-dipped strawberry fonude!! :)



mMm fruits from heaven.



first, you dip it in :)


then you take a BIG SCRUMPTIOUS BITE.


hahaha!


:) YUM. i want more.


Oh! so ben visited me in SD. And I treated him out on a date
this time...hehe. I took him to balboa park ...
and gave him a tour...I was kinda sad that this pond didn't
have pretty lilies...:( but oh well! it was a nice park
to be walking around. :)


me and ben!


so prettyyy :)


bwahah.


HEHE.


THEN, i took him to Extraordinary Desserts in Downtown San Diego.
it was SCRUMPTIOUSLY DELICIOUS. :)


cake from heaven. =)



THE END.

Hello e'rr body :)


hehehe...*pinches*


what a way to end 2007.
Is this the beginning of a new end...or the end of a new beginning yet again? Flashbacks of great memories are quite overwhelming at times like these, eeek. My head is swimming with everything that has happened since day one of...wow, last year! Ahherghlks, normally I would do the usual major update of every significant event that has happened within the year 'o7 through the use of (what else?) pictures, but it's quite unfortunate that all of them remain on my old laptop still. I've never gotten the courage to blow 100+ dollars on an external hard drive, nor have I found the time to not be lazy and upload them onto my new laptop. Boo. Oh wells.

My thoughts on the status quo of my life? Hm, wonderful! I'm happy. :)
But i'm also scared. I'm scared of making the same mistakes. I'm scared of falling. again. I'm scared of not knowing where I'm headed--as each year approaches, I find myself more uncertain of what I want to do now. /)_(\ Aaaand not only that, I find myself getting older, it's disgusting! Why can't i fly to Neverland and forever be the kid that I am. Hehe, kidding. I don't mind growing up. Life can be unfair and unpredictable, but it can also be fun at the same time. The downs make me appreciate the ups more, for sure. Everything changes and nothing is constant, but hey, what can you do about it? My New Year's resolution? Hrrrm...keep myself busy. A little vague there, I know, but it's more for myself to get ^_~ Heh.

Oh, oh! I finally watched Click. Bwahhahaa..i'm a year late, i know. I can't believe I cried. Maybe i can blame it on the unstability of my emotions as the time of the month approaches, bwahahahaha....just kidding. No but really. Watching that movie makes me appreciate my family so much more. I love how my familly and i are able to find time every holiday to go on mini vacations, even if they are not far (such as the mountains or San Diego Animal Zoo Park). It makes me all warm inside whenever we are together because it's so difficult to find time for each other now. I'm in San Diego most of the year, my brother has school and work, my mom works on the weekends, and my dad works during the week. So yeah, I really do appreciate the times we have together as a family. And, I am determined to make sure that when I have a family of my own, my 239480394 kids will have all the attention they need. :) Family trips will always be a must! And, I will have my parents around no matter what happens because i love them to death. Hehe, okay now I am just rambling. My apologies!

So, I guess since I won't be doing a flashback update, I'll do a flash-present update...of New Years Eve! :)

Oh, but first...here are the pictures I stole from Jessica:

Our Christmas Dinner:


"Cleavage shot" Oh, Leighann...


hahah the height differences made it more difficult than it looks.


We like to touch.


FACES.


And then...for New Years Eve, we went to the snow! :) It was exciting actually. I woke up at 6 to get ready and pack. Then, I headed over to Vivian's house and together, we took the bus to the train station.

YES, MY FIRST TRAIN RIDE EVERR :)
*crosses it off list of things-to-do-before-i-die*


at the train station. (vivian is cheating with her heel boots!) :(
I look EXTRA short.


our train tickets from Orange County to North Main Corona. :)


view from the train.

So we rode the train to Corona to meet up with Ben and Harrison (so that they didn't have to drive all the way to Garden Grove just to pick us up). Then, the four of us hopped into Ben's car and went to Big Bear! :)


On our way to Big Bear...no snow yet! hehe


Ben's and My masterpiece. Its name is "Obie" =0)


:D


He tried to get rid of me by burying me into the snow...RAWR.

More pictures are on facebook, under the album "Winterbreak 07" and "Winterbreak 07 part 2"



THE END.
enjoy the rest of your holidays! :)
