happy anniversary george!
hee~ ^__________^ i'm so happy. we're going to disneyland later after my last class. and since the time change happened, it won't be dark by the time we get there! yay!
george, do you remember what we did last year? i probably have it written in my journal, but i can't remember off the top of my head what we did for our first anniversary =P hehe.
anyways, yeahh...just thought i'd update with that. 2 years. it doesn't seem that long, but at the same time, SO much has happened. and i'm glad i got to spend it with him.
I LOVE YOU, GEORGE!
update.
we went to disneyland and first we had to make the monthly payment on his annual pass. last time we had to make up a payment, i used my debit card and all was good. but this time, apparently they couldn't take it [or provide a good reason as to why, either] unless i paid off the rest of the card. so i had to go and withdraw money from an atm and then pay in cash.
by that time it was close to dinner time and every single place was full. we tried blue bayou but knew we probably wouldn't get in. and we didn't. we went on pirates to just pass time and geez it was crowded for a thursday. we actually shared a row! i have never sat in a row with a different group. and i was at the freaking edge so i was expecting to get wet. the drops weren't that bad but the cannons didn't help.
then we went on the monorail to go to downtown disney. we tried rainforest cafe but their wait was an hour, 45min. screw that. and it was getting cold and windy, so i wasn't exactly thrilled at the prospect of waiting. we tried tortilla joes and waited about 30-40 mins before we got seated. it was my first time there and it wasn't that bad. i was really hungry but i barely finished half of my plate.
we looked at a couple stores in downtown disney before going back inside. it was later than i thought and the fireworks were just about to start. i think the spinning sparkler things were missing. i swear they were in the 50th fireworks, but they didn't come up. and the matterhorn didn't fight back during the pirates sequence. after that we saw captain EO and that was cool. because it was so old, ppl actually were laughing at some parts. but it was cool when everyone cheered for michael jackson. we went to indiana jones and finished with thunder mountain.
george wanted a sweet snack so he got a brick of a rice krispies treat and i got a chocolate covered strawberry. we left after that and i fell asleep in the car.
the disneyland part of the day didn't go as smoothly as i hoped, but i still had fun being with george. i was SO tired though when i got home. i just changed clothes and knocked out.

the skies are so clear!
the mountains look SO clear!! i bet today is a perfect day to see the ocean from the griffith observatory.
my anthro class was cancelled today bc my teacher is having foot surgery. so after my first class, i visited george at work and then went to my work.
tonight we're going out to dinner because i got a gift certificate to The Fish Company last year and we've just never had a chance to go. so george said yesterday, "well let's go tomorrow." talk about planning. i haven't been there in a while so that'll be fun.
last week i said i had 2 midterms. i was thinking my anthro midterm was last week but it's really this thursday. oh! and i got an 84 on my geology midterm!! i'm so happy! =]
that's about it for the update. i just wanted to comment on the clear skies =D

happy march!
the short month is over and now we're in march.
quite a few things happening this month. a big party for kelly's 21st and other march birthdays, me and george's 2 year anniversary, formal night, spring break, and my trip to london.
let's hope i can keep my focus in school too. it hasn't been too bad yet, but that's because i haven't had any major tests. i have two midterms and a quiz this week. i think. i don't know about my fourth class.
also, anchor blue is at my school again and they had some cute peach colored tops that i want to get. totally would look cute for spring and summer. raahhh. darn them.
i also changed my layout again. it's green. i wanted a greenish spring one. there isn't many choices for green backgrounds since i want to keep it fairly light. but eh.
aaaand i think that's it. byee

i gave blood!
so today my anth120 class was only 20 mins. it's supposed to be an an hour and 15 min. but eh. i was surprised when he said, "okay, i guess that's it for today." i think most of us were surprised as well. we thought he'd start the next outline but i guess not.
anyway, since i had time before going to work, i decided to give blood. i was able to. i think eating meat last night helped with my iron and i've learned how to slow down my pulse. only thing is i get a tired and out of breath really easily. mostly probably because i'm 5lbs lighter than the requirement. =P but it's for a good cause and i'll get my blood back soon enough. and it gives me an excuse to not do much and get a yummy dinner. hehe
i got an email today from the Two and a Half Men thing and it said this week's taping is cancelled. greaat.and it said there are no other tapings this week. phooie. it was hard getting those tickets! ugh. if we had gone on the 12th it would've been ok. but no, my dad had to be busy getting ready to go to vegas. oh well.
i have to pick a topic for my japn350 class research paper. first off, those words scare me because i aboslutely suck at researching. second, the word paper turns me off because i suck at writing. third, since i suck at researching, none of the topics are appealing to me. i look at a topic, think it's do-able, think of how i'm going to find information, then think "eh" and move on. T-T
i don't understand why we need to write 5+ pages on anthing. we don't write papers in the real world. we really don't. i don't see how it's helping me now. i only stress and worry.
i hate writing papers.

spring is coming!
today is also me and george's 23 months! and next month is our 2 year anniversary! ^____________^
valentine's weekend was fun. on saturday me and george went to the griffith observatory, looked around, watched the show on water [which wasn't as great as the first one we saw], and i bought a book on pluto. i'm actually surprised i bought a book considering i hardly read. but it's on pluto! the little thing, which i imagine to be a purpley orb, that is still a planet dammit. i'm kind of excited for when i'll have time to sit down and read it.
valentine's day we cooked a yummy dinner. tri-tip, mashed potatoes, salad, and bread. oh and apple cider in fancy glasses. it was so good
then we went back to ralphs later and picked up ice cream for dessert.
this week has been okay i guess. school's still tolerable. i figure there's about a month before spring break. i think that's it for the update.

so life won.
but only that round. and i'll still be complaining.
but anyway. i changed my design again! it's PINK! with little hearts all over the place. and a cute little doggie which reminds me of me and my doggie since it has that sweatdrop xD
i won't be going to japan next semester. at least not to waseda. most likely not to osaka or nara either. not through school anyway. if i really wanted to go, i'd have to go through an independent program but even then i don't think i'd have a good chance. the main problem with i got D's in both my japanese classes last year and those teachers won't write me letters of rec. well, one won't. the other just said she won't write a good one because i didn't try. yeah, thanks.
i could try for london, but even then it'd be a stretch. i don't think my gpa is going to let me go anywhere this year.
on a good note, i am most likely going to london for a couple days to visit lily during my spring break! how exciting is that. pretty damn exciting.
i'm also excited for valentine's day =]
