It's been a good week

I am officially 22 years old. wow, I'm excited.

Yesterday and the days before: Thank-you everyone who participated in my b-day celebrations! Jeremy Camp concert, club in San Diego, Mimi's cafe, McDonald (not in that order). And Thank-you for the phone calls and text messages to the people who didn't get to join my b-day celebration. Thanks guys!!!! It was loads of fun that was truly unforgettable.

hmmm... most memorable moment....was definitely the TECHNO show at the club. Neat lights w/ the most awesome DJ I have seen. Losing Elizabeth. Oh and having our private DJ at the end of the night dancing along w/ Red Hot Chili Peppers, Californication. ohhh and at Mimi's having all the girls ordering off the kids menu and not getting our mud pies since we’re not 12 and under. And I can't forget the awesome worship music from Jeremy Camp. Yeah..It’s been fun =)

Today: I just got back hanging with 2 of my oldest and dearest friends from San Jose! We had fun exploring new places at Dana Point and Newport Beach.

So I totally got lost on the way home from Newport Beach and ended up taking the 405 s to the 5 s to the 78e to the 15n. The longest route of all routes. I recommend everyone not to buy the Sony GPS system. It sucks, it gets you lost all the time (speaking from previous experiences). I miss the Magellan GPS (one we use to have) :(


Till next time, God Bless, kC

Updates of my life

Update 1: Life has been busy, but not too busy to write in this blog. So I have a 1 part time job and 1 per diem job (1 shift every 2 weeks). So I am pretty happy. I have a weight lifted off my shoulder since now I can kinda afford to pay back my loans starting next month. SO YeA!

Update 2: I think I am getting sick, I've been getting random runny noses and random sore throats. It's disgusting and I think I might know who the culprit responsible for this is.

Update 3: My bro found a neat site so I am able to download myspace songs easily. So now I have music at my disposal. I am so stoked, I think I already download close to 40 songs. That's not really an update but I am pretty excited about that.

Upcoming events this week in my life:
1. This sunday my sister Sabrina has a dance performance where she is performing a sweet hip hop # for Icon at active.
2. Sandbox (cover band) is coming back this wed&Thurs. They play at the Pechanga's cabaret (Free Live Music). I am excited!!
3. On Friday I am Watching Twilight!! comes out this day! watch the Twilight spoof (it's hilarious) at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dompotjTeIA
4. 22nd (Saturday). Is my friend Nat's b-day celebration and before that I'm going to a sweeet skate demo next to the mall.

SO I am excited for this upcoming week and probably gonna have more FUN between those events.

This week's goal is to practice the fruits of the spirit

Video Game Night in a video game world

8 Hours of playing video games tonight, beat that!!!! On 2 different monitors. My eyes hurt.We played Rockband, Mario Kart, Burn Out, e.t.c on xbox 360, wii, and xbox. Fun Times with lots of cool people! I'm looking forward in doing it again :)

Aight, I'm Tired, I'm gonna sleep now, and have sweet dreams.

YES on Prop 8

I'm voting YES ON 8, are you?

Reason why to vote YES on Prop 8:
1. Marriage was predetermined before the beginning of time as man and women. Genesis 1:27-28, Genesis 2: 22-24
2. What is the real issue of prop 8, it's not equality! It's tax breaks yeah that's right. They are already are recognized through domestic partnerships. The tax breaks are given to people who are married because they can reproduce. If you adopt YOU still get automatic tax breaks for the people who cannot reproduce. Just read the proposition, it's right there.
3. Think about the children and how confused they are going to be growing up in a culture where any type of marriage is acceptable
4. There are more reasons but I have to go to sleep I have to wake up earlllyyyy

On a side note....I'm fired up from the protesting tonight on Rancho CA road. It was so funny cuz the No on 8 had more people and they were like we have more people on our side and I was but you cannot multiply! If u don't get I'm sorry but it was funny. There were tons of cops and knifes and punching and honking and signs. Very Scary, but I didn't get hurt, yay!

It's November!

Wow, the year has gone by so fast. That sounds so cliche.

I like to let everyone know that I have been embarking on a challenge. My challenge to read a whole book (that I have no purchased) at Barnes and Noble. Now this isn't an easy challenge because the book that I am reading is over 600 pages.

ECLIPSE.. the third book in the Twilight series.

I have been making good progress lately, I'm on ch.15 a little over 200 pages. Almost there...NOT! Yeah the only reason I am doing this is cuz I can't afford to buy it and really want to read it. My older sister Alicia was fortunate enough to buy us (sisters) the 4th and last book. So I don't need to worry about reading that book in the store. Thank goodness.

OKAY that's all I wanted to say. Except listen Meiko's music on myspace it's beautiful!! Under my bed is becoming 1 of my favorite songs. Listen to boys with girlfriends as well. Both these songs are found on my myspace music player.
