smile for me. (:

so i went to sleep early todae. because i finished all of my homework. eeeeeee!! :D

..except i couldn't fall asleep. -_-

so here i am, typing away in my blog because i can't sleep. what a wonderful story this would make. -_-

-_- alsiualsduijasd. i am so tired. i think i'm too tired to sleep. aiyah. i hate it when this happens. my daddy can't sleep sometimes too. so that makes me feel better.

ergh. actually, it's all HIS fault. -_- he passed this insomnia mode down to me. i bet he did it on purpose too. *_*

like joe says, i'm beyond tired. -_-

my mother says one of the main reasons i can't sleep is because i think too much ...and i guess i do at night..since i don't have any other time to think. they just come. circling round and round inside of my head. and keep circling. at least they're not flying around this time. but i wish it was like a measuring tape so i could pull and pull and pull and pull it out of my head. then i think i would be able to sleep.

i even tried reading the Bible because reading usually makes someone fall asleep. but after reading four chapters of proverbs i think i got more awake. too much wisdom from the book of proverbs transferred into my brain.. *_*

here's some words of wisdom:

"seldom set foot in your neightbor's house--too much of you, and he will hate you." --proverbs 25:17
haha. that's just like spongebob. i remember in the summer we watched spongebob squarepants in palm springs. and it was about squidward, losing or quitting his job. and he kept going to spongebob's house. and kept making spongebob do everything for him and serve him food. and one day, spongebob just got so exasperated that he kicked squidward out of his house. i think that's what happened. and he probably started to hate squidward too. the end. :) so the moral of the story is: don't go to your friend's house too much because he/she might start despising you. even if it doesn't seem like it.

"better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife." --prov. 25:24
:D ahaha! i won't ever have to worry about having some quarrelsome wife.

-_- but maybe i MIGHT be a quarrelsome wife when i grow up. @_@ asdoij. i hope i won't become like that..because if i knoe i'll become one, i'll just not get married. :) very simple solution.

"if a man digs a pit, he will fall into it; if a man rolls a stone, it will roll back on him." --prov. 26:27
i'm going to dig a hole one day. and we'll see if i fall into it or not. :) just kidding. i think it means if someone tries to set up a trap for someone else, he/she will fall into their own trap. so don't set traps.

"do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth." prov. 27:1

"better is open rebuke than hidden love." prov. 27:5
so if you love someone, you must yell at them at all times. :)

the end. i hope you enjoyed some words of wisdom. they're all from king solomon. and he was the wisest man in the world.

actually, i think it's supposed to be reading something BORING that makes someone fall asleep.

i tried reading persuasion by jane austen because christina said that book was kind of boring. but i guess that didn't work either. it's pretty interesting. it's about a girl named Anne Elliot. and she got persuaded too easily. and that messed up her life. poor anne. i knoe how she feels. i get persuaded easily too. but then throughout the book she learns how to stand firm. :) i should read the whole book and maybe i'll learn how to not be persuaded so easily..and go against the flow. ..yes. i shall do that.

oh well. i give up. -_- no more attempts at falling sleep.

:D steph left her red 'strawberry shortcake' shirt for me and christina to wear this week. :) what fun.

she left a note on a torn ucsd financial aid envelop:

dear hung and stina--
since you guys said i took most of the clothes
i left my strawberry shortcake shirt
for you guys to wear this week.
love, steph

what a nice and thoughtful sister. :) we shall treasure the 'strawberry shortcake' shirt and think of you when we wear it. :)

i missed uncle [dennis] terribly. -_- i haven't talked to him for so long. i felt like a part of me was gone. but after service i gave him a big hug. and sarai said in disbelief: i can't believe dennis gives hugs!

his sermon touched me--AGAIN. for the past four weeks all the sermons touched me. -_- because they knew. God knew. ahah! it makes me sound like i committed a crime. but don't worry because i didn't. i don't even knoe what they knew.

uncle said in his sermon to focus. he told me last week to focus even when there's so many things going on. i guess i forgot about focusing. ._. too many things went on. thanks uncle for reminding me. i need to focus. maybe i should buy some foci so that i could focus better. ahaha! just kidding. i don't think you could buy foci anyway. i learned it in algebra two last year. like the foci points or something. i don't remember. ._.

i like EPIC people. :)

..now that i think about it, i think i like giving hugs to people rather than people giving me hugs. :)

i wanted to give a hug to luke todae but he looked down. and rejected me. -_- oh well. here's a hug for you anyway: *HUG*

so i kept hugging angela, since she was sitting next to me--doing homework on the other computer. except i think she got annoyed after a while because she said: okae okae okae. i need to do my homework now. -_- i was sad. she didn't want me to hug her. eheh. i think she was flustered. :) i love her.

but then five minutes later abraham came up to me and hugged me for about one hundred and sixteen seconds. almost two minutes. :) i think that's the longest time he's ever hugged me. then we both sang 'skater boy' because the song was playing on the computer. i felt embarrassed because i didn't knoe the words..and he knew practically every word. ._. i can't ever catch onto the words.

he knoes so many other songs too. and christina. and probably angela too. and of course steph knoes way more songs than all of us. marianna surprises me too sometimes. somehow she knoes the words to a lot of songs and just sits around sometimes and sings.

i remember yesterdae in the limo bus i didn't knoe any songs. except for "it's gonna be me." :) but there was this one song that everyone was singing to. and i was just sitting there watching with my mouth clamped shut because i didn't knoe anything. oh well. one can't knoe everything in this world.

wow. homecoming was much more different than how i thought it would be.

it was beautiful. here. imagine:

stepping off your limo, you walk between the open gates and sign in. walking in, you would first focus upon the stage, where there were some people dressed in gold robes and feathers on their heads singing. i think they're congo people. :) they were there to match the theme. something about the wilderness.

then your eyes will fall upon the the small tables and stools that were sitting around in front of the stage. there were bowl candles on the tables too. and sparkly colorless christmas lights on the trees. behind the 'stage' was where pictures were being taken. distinguished looking waiters and waitresses walked around, serving refreshments and drinks. and they were free. :) then on your left, there's a door that is opened by a very dignified waiter man. i wanted to open the door for myself so that i didn't have to cause any trouble for the dignified man but hiroshima [sherman] said that the man was PAID to open doors.

-_- i don't remember getting paid for opening doors.

anyhow, the door opens to a place that looks like an old-fashioned townhouse. the music changes. because an old lady plays the piano. but the music wasn't calm. it was kind of jumpy on purpose. i wanted to play the piano but i think it would've been impolite if i asked. she probably would've frowned at me. yes, back to the room. the floor is sprinkled with shimmering glitter and tiny gold stars. there's red plush sofa chairs, a REAL fireplace. and another one. and we can't forget the moose. or was it a deer. oh well. there was an enormous moose head that stuck out of the wall with its horns sticking out. and wilbur kept staring at it for some reason. i named the moose annabelle.

the bathrooms are on your right and as you walk on, there are artists drawing caricatures of people. and then more red plush chairs with golden arms and legs. and on your left, there's a small dining room like the ones at home.

out you go, to another place. it's town life. all the "stores" are stacked together and white tables and chairs are set for people to sit on them. and to your right, there's a white veranda that was lighted up--where people could karoke.

left to the veranda, there's a casino room--where people gambled with fake money. but i didn't gamble. :)

then you pass by store windows and they all have something about Diamond Bar brahamas. (note: wildcats are better than brahamas.)

then across the room, opposite of the veranda is the dance floor. where people were dancing like crazy. the music was blasting so loud i thought i would go deaf. :)

-_- you have to come see it yourself, blog. you can't just imagine how everything looks like.

but it was very picturesque. :) i liked it.

well, so me and jessicawa were running a little late in the beginning because we had things to do before. she had her band practice and i had a crosscountry invitational/meet at craig park across from brea mall.

steph had to take me from home alllllllll the way to chino hills, the land of cows. or as steph calls it, the desert.

thanks chinx--for driving me to places all over even when it's so early in the morning. -_- sorrie for the trouble. when I DRIVE, i'll drive you around.

as i walk into their house, joe and mike start running around the house like waving their hands like madmen yelling: we gotta go! we gotta go! we gotta go!! repeatedly. -_-

then they leave.

yvonne comes later to do mine and jessicawa's hair and alice did our make-up. i don't like make-up. -_- i felt so girly-girl. i guess i didn't look too excited because yvonne and steph kept mentioning it. i read a book called wayside school is falling down. there was this one chapter where the story goes backwards. :) i was quite amused.

anyhow, it was fun with yvonne, alice and steph there with me and jessicawa. they talked a lot. :) their lives seem so interesting. i think movies could be made about them. :D

in the end, jessicawa came out very gorgeous.

chrisl dropped by and scared everyone because we all thought he was jordan coming to pick up me and jessicawa...since we weren't prepared. he was wearing a green shirt. :) i should've worn my green shirt too--then we could've been like twins! -_- but i didn't.

then jordan comes--stressed out of his head. he was really exasperated because everyone was running late and he likes to "be on time" though he's not always punctual.

remind me--i'm going to try to be punctual to crosscountry practice everyday so i won't have to stay in a push up position for five minutes. it makes your arms very VERY sore--like they're about to fall off. i got punished on friday and afterwards i felt like a scarecrow. -_-

anyhow, jordan takes me and jessicawa to xpose and i see a massive group of other diamond bar people outside of xpose. and i suddenly get really intimidated.. adding on to my insecureness. and as jordan leaps out of the car i tell him that i'm not going to get out. but he was about to get extremely exasperated so i went out. but me and jessicawa lingered behind the car before going in. it was so intimidating -_- all the girls looked so pretty. and the guys looked so "hip" like..and all of them were wearing a silver tie and black dress shirt--exact thing jordan wore. :)

then i see kelly, wilbur, hiroshima [sherman], and timmy [electric]. they were all so beautiful. i felt like giving them a prize. but i didn't have any with me.

i 're-met' sarah, timmy's date. i met her two years ago at reubee's birthday party but i think she forgot me. -_- but she remembered my name. that is all. but she is a rather koolio girl. i found out that we're like kindred spirits. :)

reubee and wilso actually did their limo service. they looked so professional--all dressed up along with their sunglasses. their "limo" was decorated as well. :) they drove timmy and sarah around.

hiroshima, wilbur, kelly, jordan, jessicawa and me rode on the limo bus with terry and her friends. and jerry too. it was pretty. there were lights on the ceiling and they changed colors.

for dinner, we went to waters. extremely beautiful. very breathtaking. it was where chrisl took steph to dinner for her birthday. :) there was a humongo lake around the restaurant so that's probably why they called it "waters." but i don't think so.

i wanted to go swimming but i was scared that there might be big black octopuses with red eyes and giant purple jellyfish in the water. *shudder* it worser than seeing a whole clump of ants crawling around the house.

everything on the menu was very expensive there. i think we all should've went to mcdonalds and eat there but no one else agreed with me. i ordered pasta and saved some for my siblings in a circle box but i left it in reubee's car overnight so it got contaminated. ._.

me and jerry prayed over the food. :) everyone actually prayed together and we held hands like one big family.

i wanted to pay for the dinner but i guess not. -_- hiroshima wouldn't let me.

a man played guitar too. since i asked to play the piano at a restaurant in arizona one time, jordan wanted to ask the guitar man if he could play the guitar. but i think he chickened out. he shouldn't have. he plays extremely well. -_-

wow. i'm FINALLY getting tired. good. i shall go to sleep. NOW i knoe the cure. i should just blog blog blog. it makes me feel tired. :)

how could i forget: thanks yvonne and alice for helping me get ready. you guys are like professionals. :) next time if you guys go to a dance, i'll do both your hair and make-up. :) here's a hug for either one of you. hurry! whoever sees the hug first, gets the hug. here it is: *HUG*

thanks chrisl for dropping by. and amanda for watching and being there. :)

and of course, i knoe after reading the thank you's up there--you're looking for your 'thank you'--haha just kidding. but thank you chinx. you did so much for me when i didn't even knoe what was going on. yes. stupid hung-oi. -_- but "forreals," you're the bestest older sister anyone could ever have. i'm glad you're my sister. i love you. :) here. YOU get NINETEEN hugs because..you are nineteen years old!! *hug**hug**hug**hug**hug**hug**hug*
*hug**hug**hug**hug**hug**hug**hug*
*hug**hug**hug**hug**hug*. there. and no, i didn't copy and paste it. :)

(note: christina, angela, abraham or marianna better not say to steph: "you're the bestest older sister anyone could ever have," or else i'll be mighty jealous >_<)

oh yea. homecoming was not fun.

it was really pretty. entertaining. beautiful. different. funny. gorgeous.surprising. cold. glittery. exciting. exasperating. amazing. it was very fun. not fun. thanks hiroshima. :) like they say, it's a night to remember.
