New Years Day! 2009!

Today was pretty productive and eventful :)
-got out of bed at 9:45, when I actually woke up at probably around 8
-watched the Rose Parade with my mom
-played soul caliber on the wii
-ate some tiger roll for breakfast
-went on the computer and browsed until 11
-went to T.S. Emporium to buy duck, pig, and other Chinese foods
-ate lunch with my mom, lame dad and sister went to watch tv in the living room. I swear, I'm the only person in my family that actually eats at the table. I feel so American. I want that family that eats around the table, bonds, and talks about their day. Instead, my sister goes to the garage and watches tv. My dad goes into the living room and watches news on the big screen, and my mom goes to the other living room and watches her Chinese soap operas while I am the only person sitting at the table eating :(. Well, I wanted a family picture on New Years, but I guess not.
-watched the Rose Bowl game USC vs. Penn State. This was one of the few times that I actually sat down and watched a football on television. Actually, this was one of the few times that I actually watched television, period. Anyways, it was a good game and USC totally dominated Penn State. Good job USC :)
-went to Guppy's with Wayne, Kyle, and Susan @ 4
-ordered the Guppy's special and shared it with Susan. Gosh, two days eating out with my lovely girlfriend? What more could I ask for? Thanks for making these past 2 days very special ones babe<3
-went to Michaels, but they were closed so we went to Target to look for Wayne's wooden picture frame.
-took Susan home and then hung out at Wayne's house with Kyle and played Call of Duty 5 and Halo 3
-went home @ 9
-went on the computer, finished my Guppy's strawberry shaved ice, uploaded pictures, played a flash game, and now I am blogging :)

I had a pretty good day overall. The highlights of my day would have to be, the Rose Bowl game and Guppy's :). I had a great time just hanging out with my hunny. Seriously, food and love are all that I need in life<33. Thanks hunny for giving me a great time on New Years Eve and New Years<33. I can't thank you enough :). I hope the good times will keep rolling in.

New Years Eve! 2009!

Well today is the last day of 2008, EVER! Can you believe it? I can't. Gosh, this year just rolled past me. Lucky for me that I documented most of this year in pictures or else I wouldn't remember how this year passed by so fast. Well it all started in January, finals, my birthday, swim season, ap tests, school year ends, summer of senior year, susan's birthday, fall semester, thanksgiving, and winter break and here we are. ACTUALLY, that's very SHORT! :(. Oh well, I'm sure there was more to 2008 :) and I'm sure there will be even more to 2009! YEAH :)

Here is what my day was like in a nutshell
-woke up at 8
-went out to 99 Ranch Market to buy food
-went home and worked on gov paper
-played a bunch of random flash games
-ate lunch
-planned for benihana
-played soul caliber for the wii. It is an okay game, but it's a wii game, it's not very addictive and gets boring easily. I'm going to return it tomorrow and get my Order Up! game :)
-went to Benihana at 5. Benihana was fun, entertainment wise, but not food-wise. 25 dollars for a couple pieces of chicken and shrimp is definitely not worth it, but it was interesting watching Tim (our chef) prepare our food. That is how they get you. They do fancy tricks to make you forget that you are getting little portions :(. Scratch that off of my list of places to go for my birthday. I had a lot of fun because Susan went with me :). It was officially a date :), even though we sat next to strangers. At least they were friendly strangers. Anyways, I'm glad that I got to take Susan to Benihana for her first time<3.
-went to Arby's and then Starbucks. Susan and I were just being hobos and just wandering around because we had nothing else to do after. Plus, I was still hungry so we got 4 for $5 arby melts. Even though they were very unsettling to eat, it still got me full :).
-took Susan home. All in all, it was a really magical night. I love just making jokes and having fun with you Susan :). I always feel really comfortable around you and I know I can always just joke around and have a great time with you. You're just a fun person to be around. I love youu<3.
-got home and ate apples and cake :).
-watched Miley Cyrus's MTV New Years Special and now I'm watching Carson Daily's New Year's Special because there are performances of Katy Perry, T.I., Elton John and such :). New York looks so much fun. Well, freezing in 20 degree temperature does not seem fun, but heck, it is only once a year RIGHT? It'd be an unforgettable experience to say the least. Well I am making a resolution to go to New York Times Square next year :).

Well as I promised, here is my New Year's Resolution List
1) Be a better boyfriend and person
2) Be smarter
3) Be more successful
4) Work harder, never be lazy
5) Be more productive, never have down time
6) Eat less junk food, work out 3-5 times a week, swim practice when scheduled :)
7) Cherish time, live life, document life as much as possible (meaning take more pictures :))
8) Be more outgoing and assertive towards people and issues
9) Play less video games and get a job! Make money!
10) Once college rolls around, get 4.0 :)
11) Read more, learn more, be more well-rounded
12) Be more musical, ie. learn how to play piano :)
13) Love and be the best boyfriend to my girlfriend<3
14) Be more optimistic and never be in a bad mood or snap at others
15) Save more money
16) Less panic attacks?

Susan, I just want to say that I love you and that this next year just means another 365 days of passionate and everlasting love heading towards your way. You can be sure that, despite any obstacle we may face, I will try to change for the better and make sure that we get through it, together, hand in hand. Let's make 2009 another awesome year. You seriously make each and every year, for the past 4 years, really memorable and meaningful.

See you next year!

After Christmas 2008

Well it is the day after Christmas and it was quite interesting to say the least.
-woke up at 9
-played bleach on the wii with sister
-skipped breakfast
-played nostale (I tried working on my gov paper, but blah)
-went out to Walmart @ 11 to pick up pictures
-shopped at Walmart for my sister's 7th birthday present
-went to Toys R Us to shop for sister's present (part 2)
-went to Good Will and found a new pikachu doll that my sister wanted
-went to Carl's Jr and bought two jalapeno burgers, chili cheese fries, and a medium drink (all compliments thanks to coupons :))
-went home and ate my food while playing nostale :)
-played nostale with Susan until 4
-went to practice. When I arrived, only coach Brian was there and I saw a bunch of little kids who jumped into the water and shouted, "OMG ITS SO COLD!", so instinctively, I concluded that the water was..cold :). Eventually, coach made me get into the water and it was FREEZING! It was like jumping into a pool full of ice x_x. We ended up swimming for 30 minutes only because when the coach got in with us, even he couldn't handle it. So, practice ended at 4:30 instead of 6. I took Alex home and I drove home, cold as heck.
-ate dinner and played my NCAA Football All-Play for the wii. Gosh, that was one of the worst games that I played for the wii. They really slaughtered the whole football aspect of the game. The players looked really round and the gameplay was horrible. I'm returning that trash tomorrow.
-sat in my cozy room with the heat stream on :). So, my room was at least 75-80 degrees while the rest of my house was 60 degrees or something. At least that is better than the 30 degree water -_-'.
-watched my sister play Club Penguin for a while
-learned the basics of piano such as reading music, notes, and I learned how to play Brother John, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and London Bridge. I'm mighty proud of myself :)

I'm just sad that Susan and I did not get to go out today. It is okay though, because we're saving our "going-out" days for next week :). Keke<3
