smile for me. (:

i LIKE wading, blog. or is it wadding. -_-

*shriek* i hate spelling things wrong. and i hope steph doesn't comment in the guestbook about my spelling/grammatical errors again. @_@ (she hasn't commented for a while so i'm assuming that i had good grammatical errors. or none at all. (: heh)

and i LIKE the sea monster.

and i think the sea monster likes me too. *beam*

but it was SO SCARY, blog. @_@ the sea monster's hands are so humongo and they become amorphous. *_*

but jessica kao was with me. (: so it was okae. but we screamed so loud--to scare away the sea monster (but it did not good. -_-) and she kept telling me to stop screaming. @_@ but i was SO petrified.

i wanted to go deeper but she said not to because she almost drowned one time. and melody saved her because she was tall.

tall or not, i think i could save people too, blog. (: and newspaper headlines will read: EVANGELINE: HERO OF THE DAY--SAVING LIVES FROM THE HORRIBLE NEFARIOUS SEA MONSTER.

and i would be *dun dun dun* FAMOUS!

just kidding. as true as it is, that's something i'll never become. *sob* eheh.

but i do want to be a HERO. evangeline the hero. wow. how charming that sounds, blog. (:

maybe i'll become a fire-fighter. but i can't become a doctor. i don't think i can bear cutting up their skin or sticking needles. *cringe* i have very delicate nerves, blog. hah. of course not. i have STRONG NERVES.

what are nerves anyway. -_- strings that make you feel...or is that veins. -_- i forgot all my bio. *shriek* i should've listened to jams when he said to take bio AP..but no more bio for me. (bio doesn't like me) @_@

oh wait--blood flows through the veins and arteries. so they're not nerves. -_- i am perplexed. @_@ (don't worry, blog. i'm not exasperated).

if i become a policeman..i don't think i'll give tickets to anyone. that's so cruel. *_* only if there's people driving badly horrible then i'll give them a ticket. and maybe ask for their autograph. (:

and if i really need money or high status i'll just ticket myself. or maybe make up some license plate number. :)

so yes. i went wading for TWO HOURS STRAIGHT--i think with jessica kaocow. (: i'd like to think three hours but most likely not. because i can tell time. (:

but in the middle i buried jessica kao but she messed it up before i could take a picture. -_-

and then when we went back to where everyone was, she decided to shower and not go back wading. and no one else wanted to go back. and i was too scared to go back alone. *crestfallen*

and everyone started eating. hamburger patties. hot dog buns. unsanitary cooking on the grill. but we ate it anyway.

and marvin chen bought mcdonalds for everyone. and i got a pickle. (:

on the way home i told marvin chen that i'd call him mars since he said he wouldn't respond to it. (: maybe i should be called earth because earth starts with an e. but i think i like neptune.

anyhow his face looks EXACTLY like this most of the time, blog: -_-

eheh. it's so FUNNY. remember blog? --he's the harvard boy. and i knoe who he likes. eheh. because i observed him but he doesn't believe me. (i can't help being observant.) @_@

but he thinks i keep a list of who likes who in my computer. -_- that's the most dim-witted thing to do in the world. arnold would probably get sick in the heart.

yes so it was a senior beach party yesterday. at huntington beach. (it's kind of hard to pronounce huntington really fast)

and the beautiful mars wanted to make sure we were going the right way so he made michael wong look at the map.

but then michael wong passed me the map because he didn't knoe how to read it. HAH. but then christina kuo said she read in a book somewhere that girls don't knoe how to read maps.

but i immediately disproved that statement. it's an invalid statement anyhow.

i read the map right, blog. *beam*

and before we left, mars had strict orders to drive safely so he wouldn't talk to us just so he could "concentrate" but he was scared too.

so i volunteered to drive just in case he gets tired.

and then the chauvinist mars responds: well i don't trust girls driving. no girls can drive. they all suck.

when i drive i will also invalidate that statement. @_@

so there was a bonfire and people brought homework to burn up. (: but i had to save mine for christina. and angela and abraham and marianna. JUST IN CASE they need it for school. so no burning homework for me. ._.

there was so much smoke and ashes that after washing my hair twice it still smells like smoke. @_@ and i scrubbed so so so hard. @_@

elizabeth said "at least it'll leave memories" -_- but i don't need smoke memories.

i inhaled so much smoke that i think my throat is barbequed. -_- my voice is scorched and limited. and i sound like an old woman. *_*

but that's been happening for the last two weeks because i've been ailing. -_-

i get sick mostly in the mornings and nights. uncle said that too. and i threw up. and some of it was kind of sweet but sour. and kind of bitter too. @_@ i swallowed some back again but then my stomach kicked it out. -_- poor throwup. it was unwanted. not even by ME. *sob*

did you knoe that people danced around the bonfire, blog? i just wanted to dance with the sea monster. fire is scary. allison, jc and andrew tried playing with the fire BUT WHAT IF their fingers catch on fire and BURN OFF?! (that's when i'll have to use my surgeonical skills)

there were these two boys that debbuah and amyleeuh kept talking to. and amyleeuh and jessica kao said to throw me in with the SEA MONSTER and i had to make sure they didn't because i was mighty scared so we all decided to throw in one of the boys--i think his name is michael. but he ran away and we had to chase him.

and i had to put in extra fuel and use up my special crosscountry/track sprintalaka and *ta da* i caught him. but we couldn't get him in the roaring waves so i was just going to throw amyleeuh in but i couldn't. -_- no one helped me anyway.

so i went *dun dun dun* wading all by myself with lisa.

and the waves were so high that i think they were taller than me. and we had to jump the waves and me and lisa shouted with GLEE.

before when i was tossing the beloved football to lisa, i accidentally hit debbuah and she ran away from me. (sorrie debbuah.) i'm supposed to be good at throwing..and bad at catching. but i guess not.

i can spiral the football. *beam* it looks so koolio. seriously, blog. i told you before but i must tell you again: i LIKE football and i want to join. @_@

i really really wish there was a girl's football team at school. and i hold jackie sarmiento in high esteem because she's the only girl on the football team at glen a wilson high.

maybe she's one of the only people who can beat me up. -_-

but i wouldn't be able to do crosscountry if i did football. and crosscountry will be sad. i shouldn't cheat on him anyway.

i want to go buy a football but i don't where to buy them, blog. *shriek*

i think i bought a football set for my dear brother christmastime but i think it's a fake football. and he hid it somewhere. -_-

sidenote: i scared wei-chong (edwin) THREE TIMES. hah.

henry has a very disturbing and terrifying laugh. he laughs like this: AH HAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA.

when i zipped up mars's big humongo black jacket (it was FREEZING at the beach--like almost thirty-two DEGREES. @_@ and i thought it would be hot so i didn't pack a jacket) and jumped in front of drew and said: WHAT UP'S DOG (or is it dawg) with two fingers held sideways i tripped over the sand and i fell. -_-

and henry laughed in my face, mouth wide open: AHAHAHAHA and to make it worser, he pointed at me. and i heard some girls giggle. and drew had the strangest expression on his face. @_@

and i was embarrassed.

and later henry kept saying: where's marianna. (he's trying to hit on marianna. and she's only six. and they are eleven years apart. but sujaya and henry replied: age is only a number. -_-)

and when i was doing my english presentation, henry held up a sign that read: i love (heart) marianna. and i fumed inside but i had to concentrate on my huck finn game because i was getting graded.

we played a game for my presenation. and whoever's side answered the most questions, wins and gets a prize--but it wasn't candy.

and the right side won and i passed out tiny pieces of paper that said: you are a winner! but some people didn't look too happy. (: heh i disappointed them.

and i saw people throw it AWAY. in the trashcan. *sob*

so i met ashley last last week, blog! (: i met her on the computer. but i saw how she looked like: she's so pretty. @_@

if i stand next to her it's like i'm the brown rotting banana peel and she's the shiny red apple. -_-

but that's okae because we think alike: joe's pathetic. (:

okae. his name will be joseph from now on. i started calling him joseph freshmen year but he hated it and i forgot. -_-

but then on thursday jonathan reminded me (thanks jonathan. x] ) since joe brought up the fact that his name was the only one that i didn't "pronounce wrong" or had a nickname for. (and i don't pronounce names wrong. -_- )

hence joseph it is. (:

so finals. @_@ it's over, blog. and the only one i really liked was u.s. history.

eheh. we got to memorize the fifty states, capitals, appalachian mountains and mojave desert and rocky mountains, the great basin and the mississippi river and the columbia and colorado river. and the capital of guam and puerto rico.

and i knoe them ALL. i knoe my GEOGRAPHY. yay. *beam*

my father would be SUPER proud of me because he said geography is important..
(before when he was helping me memorize the states he told me that my geography sucked. ._. but it doesn't now! yay.)

and there's that song about the fifty states but i don't knoe how to sing it. ._. only abraham and angela do. and there's another states song i learned in second grade but i could only remember the song up to idaho. -_- so it's no great help.

i'm just going to make up my OWN states song, blog. :) and maybe it'll become famous one day and all the kids will sing it. *beam*

drew told me that he got "engaged." but he won't let me be his best man. *crestfallen* i don't think i'll get to be the maid of honor either. what woe to me. ._.

on a brighter note, my brother abraham has been promoted from fifth grade to middle school. his speech was so cute and funny i heard.

the family left without me because i took too long to pack my stuff so i had to run to los altos elementary with my spongebob backpack. and a skirt and flipflops. and i tried to close the garage and jump the sensor but my skirt kept getting in the way so i was so exasperated that i pinched my skirt.

and then i finally jumped over the sensor and i heard a loud rip and i ripped part of my skirt. -_- and my neighbors had bewildered looks on their faces.

but i ran away. and i almost bumped into a car. and the lady honked at me. @_@

and i arrived two minutes after abraham finished his speech. i was CRUSHED, blog. i almost wanted to cry. and i almost ran into the front entrance to the stage because uncle said to go through the red doors. APPARENTLY, there are more than one pair of red doors. -_-

arriving there i cheered really loud with christina for abraham. no one else cheered for anyone else. it was so sad. so we cheered for derek and eric the twins and sharon jan and some of abraham's dear friends.

but abraham got the loudest cheers. but soon after these people started to cheer and we had some MAD competition to see who cheered louder.

me and christina shouted: WE LOVE YOU ABRAHAM!

and: GO ABRAHAM. and: WAY TO GO. and: GOOD JOB.

and other ones. but abraham was embarrassed of us. -_- and he gave me a face when he came down. WAHSAI. you are LOVED, abraham. (: i love you.

and then next was wilson graduation. and the seniors graduated. i couldn't decide if they were happy or sad.

and i took too many pictures with them. -_- and i felt a need to be sad because they're LEAVING. i might not see any of them again in my whole life. *sob*

but it's not like they care if they see me again. ._. but don't worry, i care.

a lot of people thought i was honorguard. but no way jose (the j is silent and the e is pronounced a--just to let you knoe, blog) dressing up and sitting on the field for two straight hours without moving. no going to the bathroom. i can't do.

but they got to escort the seniors. and escorting is fun. but i didn't.

and half the time i was looking for JESSICA KAO. erhg. that GIRL. we got separated when we were supposed to be pals. she went home right after she passed out her leis.

hometown buffet to celebrate and jessica kaocow owed me hometown but debbuah's parents payed for everyone. (they're too nice. and i LIKE them. and they smiled back at me too)

and i had to serve as a waiter. to jonathan and timothy and jessica kaok.

but not as a hometown waiter. jams used to be a hometown waiter, blog. and he tried to kick us out before. @_@

and i met vivian's beloved brother, samson kim. because debbuah made me get ice cream with her with him. he's such a funny boy. (: he says homies too. and he called me angeline at first. -_- and i met his nice friends but i left debbuah alone with them. (: and i forgot their names. -_-

jordan's graduation was on thursday. and me and joseph spent SO LONG looking for a present for jordan.

and we were looking for frames so we could put jordan's "favorite pictures" in there. and joseph was SO EXASPERATING. -_- but he gave me a bunch of benedryl. *beam*

it's the sleeping medicine that i use to chase away the insomnia monster. but i was running out and i needed more and he had a whole bunch in his car.

the hot pink tablets. (: but it's more like allergy/cold medicine that makes you feel drowsy. so it's not real sleeping medicine. just in case i might get addicted.

yes so jordan graduated at the anaheim arrowhead ponds--where mighty ducks play hockey. @_@ they had FIREWORKS and the speeches were SO intriguing that i think i listened to every word.

and it looked very nice. and i painted two big humongo yellow signs that said: congrats jordan and go jordan! we love you.

and i wanted to get my duct tape because i left it in the car but jonathan wouldn't let me so we had to hold the signs on the balcony the whole time..

me and reube tried to stick gum on the sign to the balcony but it wouldn't stick and the security lady said that they didn't want signs hanging but she didn't scold other people who had signs hanging. -_-

and their security is scary. @_@ they have metal detectors and they weren't going to let me carry in the signs for jordan because it was "too big" and one of the lady security kept snapping at me so i felt kind of dejected.

but yes. when they called up jordan to get his diploma--me, jessicwa, joseph, jonathan and kera and lydia yelled as loud as we could. and jonathan kept yelling jordan's name even after other people's names were called and jordan nodded at us in acknowledgement. (: (and reube was somewhere at the top signing gloria's yearbook for a while)

yes. and mimi's promotion was in the morning time too but i couldn't go because i had finals. and kevin and aaron's had theirs friday morning. they are all growing up SO BIG, blog. *sob*

anyhow: congratulations class of two-thousand-and-three. *shake hand*

so last friday, blog...we almost got arrested. -_-

me, henry, and sujaya. actually just henry and sujaya, blog. i ran away. (:

we were doing our ap english/us history project on illegal immigration.

and we were at the ins (immigration and naturalization service) office..taking pictures for our scrapbook.

and i guess thinking that we might be terrorists, we were almost arrested by the security officers at the ins office. -_-

!! but how could they think we were terrorists, blog. -_- we didn't even LOOK close to being terrorists.

henry and sujaya just looked like regular asian boys. you knoe how they dress. a shirt and kind of baggy pants.

and i just looked....stupid. i was wearing a skirt that had green flowers all over it because it was green day. (i don't think terrorists dress like that.)

it all started when we were just taking pictures, blog. henry was taking a picture of me and sujaya stupidly pointing to a sign that said "federal building" when the security officer saw him and growled at him: YOU! YOU--COME HERE. and he grabbed henry's camera.

then the security guard also saw sujaya's video camera and roared at him to come too. like this: YOU COME HERE TOO!

i was standing next to sujaya..and i was almost frozen. but right when the security officer called sujaya to come..i ran away. and hid behind a big stone pillar...before the security officer could see me.

(besides..IF they were dragged off to jail i could save them and be the hero of the day. (: )

and while i was catching my breath behind the pole this old immigrant asian man shook his finger at me saying: no-no.

and i whispered back: but we didn't knoe!! we didn't knoe that taking pictures of a building was bad! we are INNOCENT!!

and i held my hands up for emphasis.

but i don't think he understood because he just shrugged. -_-

and i was SO SCARED, blog. you don't understand...i was praying so hard..

and at one point i was so furious at myself for bringing up the topic, 'illegal immigration' for our project. -_-

then i was trying to muster up all my courage to yell at the security officers telling them that we were just there for a project and that we were taking pictures for our scrapbook. and that they shouldn't falsely accuse us because we were innocent.

and to beat them up and punch them in the nose and give them a jackiechanbuttkick for punishment.

but then i didn't. i was such a scaredy-cat. -_- i was afraid that they would arrest me and then that way i wouldn't be able to save henry and sujaya.

and some police/security officers are mean and cruel and don't listen so i was scared that they would beat me up. and leave me lying in the streets to be run over and over by cars because the streets are busy in downtown la.

yes. so after standing behind the pole i walked off..and waited and waited. they ordered henry and sujaya to put their hands up..

sujaya told me that he tucked his hands behind my head just like the tv show 'cops' (i don't knoe what he's talking about) and the guard yelled at him. (poor sujaya)

and they took so long. -_- henry said that they took down all of his information because he was the one who took the picture.

and then after a looong forty-seven minutes (i kept looking at the time) henry and sujaya walked over to me in very sober faces and they gave me their stuff and went into the ins office..leaving me outside allll alone. -_-

so i stood there for thirty-two minutes walking up and down the stairs. and these people kept staring at me because i had this video camera around my neck and a digital camera in one hand and a cell phone in the other. it was henry's because i forgot mine at home. and he gave it to me to call them in case of emergency.

and then they finally come out. and they were safe.

BIG *SIGH OF RELIEF* but well, what do you expect. God DID answer my prayers. yay. (: (thanks God.)

so we were ignorant of the fact that pictures weren’t allowed to be taken at the INS office..and that

so the ins was on “orange alert?-second to the highest alert suspiciously looking out for any sign of terrorism--and we were just ignorant of the fact that pictures weren’t allowed to be taken at the INS office. -_-

but that's so a;sodifjidjfij.

like henry says: almost being arrested at the INS building in LA for merely snapping a picture. @_@

but that all belongs to last friday, may thirtieth. @_@ (i hope that never happens again. and if it does, i'm really going to punch the guards in the nose and give them a jackiechanbuttkick)

but at least we're all safe back home now. (:

and on the way back home, henry turned up the music really loud and it hurt my ears. @_@

then after he turned it down but his system makes the bass boom really hard so you could feel it bellowing under your seat that it makes your heart feel like it's beating at three different times..

and at the same time it tickles. -_- and i told sujaya and henry to turn down the bass because it tickled and they just laughed. -_- and they just kept turning up the bass and i had to stand up because my whole seat was VIBRATING like crazy. @_@

and all they did was: laugh and laugh and laugh. and i was SO EXASPERATED, blog. >_<

and henry always did that when i rode with him in the car. -_- when i drive, i'm going to make him sit allll the way in the back in "dan the van" and drive bumpily so he'll get a headache. -_-

and if i'm rich enough, i'll get a system and turn up the bass and make him sit against the speaker so he'll knoe how i feel. -_-

the NEXT DAY after ins office, we decide that we needed to go to temecula. because our field trip to the ins office didn't work too well.

so off to temecula we go with sujaya's parents..and we visited some border patrol office. and we the border patrol STICKERS!! *beam*

but then sujaya's father took them from me because he likes them. -_- so they made me go in and get more ALL BY MYSELF. and the border patrol agent raised his eyebrow when i took five stickers.

i reserved one for the scrapbook but i can't find the rest of them so i think my mother threw them away so that means i have no border patrol stickers for myself. *sob*

anyhow, on the way there to temecula, there were like seven billboards advertising a casino in temecula called pechanga. and they wanted to go really bad. so afterwards, we all went to the casino. my first time at a casino.

and when we arrived there, these people wearing white polo shirts took the car and drove it away and sujaya's father had to give them money because they asked for it..but sujaya says it's called valet parking. -_-

i don't understand why we can't just drive the car and park OURSELVES for FREE. -_-

so as we walk into the casino, sujaya said: evangeline, you're walking through SIN CITY. right now, everyone's sinning..

and i felt really really weird, blog...not to mention uncomfortable. -_-

there were a whole bunch of people--mainly old people sitting on seats and pressing buttons. they're like playing kiddie games, blog. @_@ so i thought it was funny...except they're gambling. *_*

and there was this big no smoking sign but a whole bunch of people were smoking anyway. and they sell these BIG BROWN things. henry and sujaya says it's called cigars.. but i KNOE what cigars are.. but when you see them they're HUMONGO. @_@

and then sujaya's parents wanted to eat at a buffet so off we went and i put too much chilli on my pizza because i didn't knoe how much i was supposed to put but sujaya's father said that eating chilli makes you look younger BUT i look young enough.

to have people think i'm in eighth grade or to have people think that christina's older than me.... -_-

and he was drinking coffee i think and he asked if anyone one of us wanted to drink coffee and i said no because it makes me short.

then he asked: who said that? the books?! books are stupid. they know nothing.

then he added: well, i've been drinking coffee since i was young like you guys.. (he's 6'3, blog!! *SHRIEK* that's how tall i want to be)

then he made up his own hypothesis about coffee: drinking coffee makes you tall.

but i don't knoe. maybe it does....@_@ i should've drank some this week since i was pulling all-nighters everyday. -_-

i was so relieved when i finished the scrapbook (all by myself except for one page) wednesday morning..nine thirty-four. so that meant no first period and late to second period. -_- (but i was sick too so i stayed home a little longer)

staying up til three am cramming or pulling all-nighters can get you sick. -_-

uncle filmed me, sujaya, henry and christina, angela, abraham, and marianna on wednesday night, blog.

and henry was the border patrol and the rest of us were illegal immigrants. henry and sujaya wanted to film with the "star tours van" (dan the van) but we just used sujaya's car.

and henry had to say stop and pretend to check the car (with sujaya driving and christina angela and marianna and me inside and abraham in the trunk.)

and then sujaya had to stop driving and yell hurry up in spanish (it's pronounced andeday with a spanish accent) and clap his hands in emphasis. and we had to run out of the car. and i had to open the trunk for abraham and everyone except for sujaya waited for me (but they were supposed to run off) and by the time we went running sujaya was like seven feet ahead of us. @_@

and we also filmed sujaya as an illegal immigrant girl--and he had to wear christina's wig for dance and i gave him a purse and he had to talk like a girl..seriously, blog--he has a really HIGH voice..it's higher than mine. @_@

before the filming, me and henry were waiting so long for him, blog. -_- he went to eat at some restaurant in monterey park..and then he was supposed to be back by nine pm. but then he changed it to nine-thirty.

then when he came it was nine thirty-FOUR. FOUR MINUTES LATE!! @_@

because me and henry felt so A:SOd we decided to give him a punishment.

so when he came around the corner, we scared him like this: BOO! and scare him we did. eheheheh. his eyes were like this, blog: O_O

and he told me later that he said the s word but me and henry didn't hear because we were laughing so hard that i almost started crying. (:

anyhow me and sujaya were SUPER relieved when we finished our video/powerpoint at two o'clock am SHARP.

two am. i think that's the latest that sujaya ever stayed up. (: eheh.

he used to sleep at nine pm every night last year. and in junior high he slept at SEVEN PM. -_- if he could give me HALF of all the sleep he got...i wouldn't be so tired. @_@

and he kept yelling at me because i took so long on the commentary but there were so many important stuff to put in. -_-

yes. and henry "had to" go to jspot. but he said he tried to help sujaya fix the video at hector's house. but sujaya ended up working on it for three hours that he was too happy to care.

yes. so me and sujaya were left working.

and i was supposed to give all the info to sujaya by eight pm but i was so tired, blog--so i fell asleep. (shh don't tell sujaya)

and i ended up giving everything to him at two am. (sorrie)

so alas, our ap english/us history project is over for life. *sob* no more working with sujaya and henry. no more getting arrested at ins office, no more temecula, or planning to go to mexico, no scrapbook, video, no more FARTING at my house @_@, matchmaking themselves with marianna and christina (i'll make sure they'll never fall for you guys)....and i can't remember anymore. -_-

as sujaya puts it: at least it's memories to look back on..

but don't worry. we're not sad, blog. we're just glad that it's OVER.

christina's springshow was last saturday. i went there to see her. (: (and jesskao, debbuah, sally and esther and jc but jc didn't show up because he was annapolis for the naval academy training)

and they danced so good that maybe i really should take dancing lessons for them. (not! never never. i don't need dancing lessons. -_- i just dance the evangotango)

and i cheered really loud for them especially christina that my throat hurts so bad. ._. i said: christina i love you! four times i think but it would've sounded better if it was a boy-voice saying it.

BUT if some guy DID say that..i would HUNT HIM DOWN and BEAT HIM UP and tell him to stop hitting on my sister and KEEP AWAY. or else he'll get a jackiechanbuttkick next time.

and then at the end we told marianna to get these pretty red and yellow star balloons. and then when i was outside waiting with steph for christina, yumi shouts: EVANGELINE!! watch out! and andy kuo and jason fukao yelled: RUN AWAY!! HURRY!!

and i was so confused..and right when i turned around..this scary lady stalks up to me and demands that she have the balloons or else i'll get the dance team in trouble. and that it was the drill team property. -_-

but that wasn't true. and i was so shocked and dumbfounded that i handed the balloons to her and mumbled sorry i didn't knoe. and i EXPECTED STEPH to say something but she didn't because she was dumbfounded too.

but afterwards when we had something to say back to her it was too late because she was gone. -_-

later we saw her put a whole bunch of balloons in her van--what was she going to do with those balloons?! keep them for herself?! -_-

they're going to end up shrinking and die out. and we just wanted it to be inside our house to make our house look a little prettier. @_@

-_- like they say: oh well.
