I'm so annoyed with this damn computer! RAWR! I can't do anything. Its pissing me off.
I NEED to change this layout now. It's getting old. I was looking for pictures, i know what i'm gonna be doing, but it's hard with this computer! gr. Today was alright. Physics sucked. I hate getting called on. I really do because I blank out. And then I appear stupid to the rest of the class. #$@%!!
Okay, uh. This post was to put my poem from english up heh. :) I did it late at night too.. and its not so bad. tell me what you think....
Three Important Words
~Maureen UIt was unusual that I say "I love you"
With the intensity and enchantment it desires
I didn't have the devotion and adoration
to ever say such a meaningful expressionBut one day you came into my life
and changed the notion that if I had one chance
to say "I love you" to someone ever again
it would undoubtly be youAs significant as those three words are
it fits the feelings I have for you
You've always been there like a faithful dog to a man.
You are my journal who I tell everything toI never thought I would say such stirring words
that made our relationship intensify
it was fate that brought you and I together
on this spellbinding night under the skyLater DAYS!

HI HI!
I just saw SHREK 2 SHREK 2 SHREK 2!!!!! =D =D =D Oh man.. i'd watch it like many a time more! AH! I loved it better than the first one. <3333333
Okie SO anyway. I worked a lot this weekend. On Saturday I had a meeting (at work) at 8am. :( then I had to go to work straight after that til 5pm! Gr. But it was okie. ^^ verrry busy though .....same as sunday too. Wow. BUSY! BUT like I said... it was alright :) After work on sunday I went to U. O. I keep seeing that one girl with long black hair. And that stupid bitch with moppy hair. It really looks like a mop. A Dirty Mop. Who the hell bleaches their hair on the roots only ...with fark.. (haha fark) i mean DARK hair at the bottom. And then she frizzed her hair up. My sisters and I just call her mop. We wouldn't be doing that but she was just stupid and lazy when we got her awhile ago. Anywho.
So far, I'm reallly happy. Maybe it's because I'm about caught up with everything at school ^_^ I dunno why i'm so happy though, i'm not doing too well even with everything turned in. Meh. School wasn't meant for me. Maybe it's cause i'm so used to awful grades that I just accept it. I can't help it though. I'm not exaggerating either. Actually it's the tests that are killing me. I don't do well on tests. No matter if I understand and read the chapter. No matter if I do the assignments. I just don't do well! Ah well, I guess. :) It Happens
I realllly hope I get to go on the Magic Mountain Trip at school cuz my first day of summer school is on june 7th too. and I know i'm gonna be working on that monday cuz of HP. But that doesn't really matter to me.. because well, i hate work and there's like 20 people who can work in my place. SHiit. So yeah. I dunno, but mostly I AM! yay. I hope they don't drop me out for missing the first day of school......... maybe i'll call the office, but I don't know. I hope I can go. I mean it's only the first day. The first days of high school are nothing.. so hopefully its the same with this class.
Oh.. at work.. we're doing a charity thing. All you do is donate a dollar and it goes to numerous charites. Out of the many people I encounter at work... out of all the races... mexicans are the most generous. ^_^ then it goes to white people.. then black people... then of course the most stubborn race of all.. ASIANS ha ha ha. It's mostly chinese people though. heh.. Filipinos donate....sometimes.... SOMETIMES.. I really wonder why people can't donate a dollar though. ITS a dollar!! it's change you find in your couch.. it's change you find in your car. Honestly people.
Also, i really like the Cure's Pictures of You, Just Like Heaven, Friday i'm in love (of courssseee).. and others. I WISH I COULD SEE THEM IN COACHELLA! ahh...
Well, okie. hehehe.....I'm so suprised....since thursday.. i've managed to be happy ^_^
Later Days.

hello hello! wow, I feel this site is dead. I even thought about closing it, but the thought of having this site for two years and just closing it? I just couldn't let that happen!
First, like I said, lotsa stuff happened. Not just doing stuff, but social wise too. I'm getting to know more people that I haven't really talked to this whole year and last year. I'm really glad about that. Really glad, Indeed. I can always be myself.. I'm always happy when I talk to people I just met or I just began talking to. When I talk to people who I know longer, it's different. It just is. It goes up and down. It starts off really nice, then something happens, it starts getting weaker, then something happens again, and then it's almost like forced friendship. Which saddens me of course but everything happens for a reason. I just hate seeing friendships falling apart. And it's happened a couple of times. There are exceptions though, a friend of mine and I get along pretty well. And I feel I can talk to him about anything and I know he listens. And he remembers. I feel we're a lot alike. Great friend, indeed.
Other stuff. Well, first, Carlos got me job for making a website for a company. I'm excited about it, but I don't know if I have the time. I don't even have time to do my own site. I don't think we updated Forever-Rain at all. I don't know what I should do. I want it, but then I don't know if I can do well. What should i do?
Second. A lot of projects are going on right now. I really need to get off my ass and start doing something. I really can't stand how i'm putting a lot of this off til the last minute. I wish there was a cure to all this -like a pill to stop procrastination and slacking. I definatly would take it. I think I work better under pressure though.. I have to know it's due the next day or else I won't do it because in my head i'll just do it later. SIGH
Third. Yesterday, I got my paycheck! Same as last time, but like a dollar more. I have to save! I have to SAVE!! My last two paychecks went by like lightning.. except I managed to save 40 bucks. I can NOT spend anymore money! I just can't! Except I spent my money on something worth it like Josh Groban <333 and mothers day present :) I just gotta have a Jeep Wrangler though. The more I want it, the more Jeeps show up in my face. It's like its saying "HAHA YOU CAN'T HAVE ME!! ::evil laugh::". I just want a red and black one. Where the top can come off. And i'll be cruising the country...with my cowboy hat and listening to the best group ever: the eagles! AHH!! What a fantasy I tell you!
Fourth. I'm gonna take summer school. I'm kind of excited! Because i'll be taking Japanese at UNLV. I get to learn Japanese finally and learn katakana! Yay!
Fifth. Umm.. I don't know. I have lots a rants! I'll start off with tech! YAY. Gauthier never gets off anyones back. It's so annoying. He'll just bitch and bitch and bitch. How people can stand it? I don't know. But no matter what, he'll just NEVER LEAVE YOU ALONE!! gah. I also really can't stand my neighborhood. It's so damn ghetto! It used to be all nice and quiet. Now it's full of noisy kids WHO DON'T GET OUT OF THE FUCKING WAY and who just cry and scream all the time. How annoying. It makes me think twice about having kids or not. Also, i gave 88 dollars to this man. And I asked him if he would like to donate a dollar (note: a DOLLAR mind you!) for a charity. HE SAID NO!! and then he gave me an attitude. People these days. HOW AWEFUL!!!
LAST BUT NOT LEAST!! PICTURES! I got more pictures from my camera, but i'm to lazy to upload it. So I just scanned these. Hope you like!!

I have time to write now. Lotsa stuff happened.
(I'll post pictures later)
First, Prom! I got picked up at 4-ish well, first we took pictures.. my mom kept telling us to go here and there and here and there. finally got outta there. Then we went to justins house and met up with everyone else. It was a group of 6. Then we went to take pictures at this place across town , interesting, I tell you....... This is happening in the span of two hours. So finally, the dance. We unfortunetly had to stay there for only an hour. I didn't get to see many people :( Oh well. So after the dance, we went to Tournament of Kings! Fun Fun FUN! We were on the RUSSIA side. Russia was awesome. He kept getting disqualified, cause well he was just AWESOME. He wasn't bad looking either. I'm telling you! heh. The food was good too. Especially the chicken. OOhhh baby! Okay so after that. We played this one game in the arcade and one of the people, donna? wanted to get that really jumbo size flower. And no matter what, you get a flower for just playing. We got lotsa flowers and she ended up get the Jumbo one. Then we played.. well she played.. the asian tourist game... which well, i'd just have to demostrate someday. Funny stuff! So finally, we went to venetian. Traffic!! Crazy. I saw SASI and her date there. AND I saw Mabby and her group there. CooL CooL. We rode the Gondolas. That was just.. uhhhhhhh? okay. I thought it would be longer and more enjoyable. The guy though was singing the pasta song. As requested. heh. Funny. :) After Venetian. Two of the six had to go home and justin got something in chinatown and we went to our room (NOTE: it was a group) at Palace Station. I went home at like 4am though. I would've stayed, and contemplated for a long time whether I should go or stay (at the hotel). Then Jerry, one of the people, said something about how my parents might blame Justin... and I DONT want that at all. So that immediatly changed my mind. So I went home. Prom was fun. Hopefully i'll get invited next year. I think it would be more fun with people in my class ('05)... but it was fun anyhow :) :)
Okay, i don't feel like writing anymore.
I think a lot about who I am. I think my personality changes a lot. I think i'm generally nice and happy. I'm just very irritable (which doesn't mean i'm angry ALL THE TIME!!!!!). It's really no big deal. I shouldn't let things bother me. But they do. Lots a stuff bother me. BUT I GET OVER IT FAST! I don't hold grudges even for a minute. I don't fucking care. I'll rant a minute then i'll forget about it. Understand? don't think of me differently. Don't think that i'm just being unreasonable. It's just me. If you don't understand that then.............. are you even my friend? (NOTE: this is in general, not talking to anyone specificallly alright?). Also, I have the RIGHT to my own opinion. if it doesn't go a long with yours. Oh well--it happens--grow up--no ones the same! That doesn't mean my opinion is stupid! that doesn't mean you have to think differently about me! It's my opinion. I respect yours, you respect mine. I just hate when PEOPLE ASSUME THINGS. gr

Today was good :) Tech final was... mmmmmm... alright. I didn't do well on the "Method of joints" part. Ya know, I never really understood that part from the very beginning. So i was lost in that section. Oh well, I just really hope I do well on the class overall!
I don'tknow what else to say... Oh, I saw TROY. That was a reallly long movie. It was pretty good though. I think it had unecessary long scenes though like when the wifes of the soldiers were saying goodbye. Those scenes were amazingly long and irritating. I mean a man has to fight for his country... especially if he's the prince and leader of the whole army. Don't get too selfish now.
Well, I wanted to post because my sister had this quote in her blog which i find kinda true. Someone told me.. not mentioning who.. that he/she thought of me that i'm in dire need of attention...when he/she read my past entries ='( I'm not sure how to take that. My past entries were kind of like that, but I guess I just had a phase....... Here's the quote. I think it explaines why my entries are like the way they are.
The entire sum of existence is the magic of being needed by just one person

Well, I'm taking a break from studying for this tech exam tomorrow. I hope I do well. I'm only taking a break because most of the stuff that I have left to review.. I can't do til school tomorrow. Good thing I have tech 6 & 7 period. =)
Anywhoo, today was very tiring. I didn't get much sleep last night, but that was for a reason, which I don't mind. I did catch up after school today. Got home at 330.. slept right away and woke up at 8. 8:00 because I wanted to see the finale of Fraiser =). I would want to watch that show. Not Friends, I don't know...I just don't like the show. Maybe it's the writing. It's not funny. Well, to me anyway. Then, ER and saw the beginning and ending. :( I have to wait til probably October to see what happens! Hmm.. WOW, i'll be a senior in October. Wow, like 3 more weeks til i'm a senior. I feel old. I feel old now, but when i go to work or like places like Holy Grounds and they ask me how old I am.. and tell that i'm a junior, i feel so young! Ah, oh well. =)
I think i'll have a major busy weekend, but it's okay. I like busy weekends. It's more fun. I'm in the mood for coffee right now. BUT if i drink coffee then i'll be awake forever, and i love sleep! I didn't have holy grounds this whole week! Sigh. Sigh. Sigh. It was strange though, cuz I kept seeing the same guy. It's happening all over again. Last year, it was this one starbucks guy that I always had (he even called me princess! haha no one has ever said that to me)... but i was really stupid and dense. I think he asked for my number or something, but i couldn't hear him! So i just left! And that was like the day before my one month long Philippine trip. Sigh sigh sigh. So much for that. lol. I love being a regular somewhere, because it's really amusing that they know what you'll order!! I think it's really funny .. and then I smile the rest of the day. heh ^__^
Well, I guess i'll go back to studying now. Wow, maureen... studying? For tech? No way...
Later Days.

So. My day was alright. I was actually productive in precalc :) I was quite annoyed with jake p. though because for one thing I sit with chris and he like worships chris so everywhere where chris went he was there too. Not only was that annoying, but he kept saying stuff that would make anyone go "SHUT THE HELL UP!" oh well, I kept myself from saying that from putting myself opposite where he was.
[extended]
Anywhoo, today wasn't the final exam for the UNLV class for tech. Yayyy. We're taking it on friday. I hope I do well. Today though, Dr. James reviewed for the final. Damn, I hate having that class first because I was so tired! I kept on yawning and yawning. After class though was nice, because getachew gave me a back massage. That felt really nice. I gave him one too. I kept refusing, but I think his back really DID hurt. Lol. So oh well.
Umm.. I think tonight I will do major homework. Last night was probably a lesson or there was a reason it happened becaussse.... I actually did some homework! I took my ass of the computer chair and did homework. Wow. Go MAUREEN!
Well, that is all. I'm not so upset anymore, partly because I get over things too fast.
Later Days! [more]

Howdy Friends! My week was actually alright. Go me.
I last wrote Wednesday, so come thursday. Thursday I went to school late. I shouldn'thave came to school because I thought I would miss something in physics or tech, but of course, nothing happened. Oh well, thursday wasn't a total loss. After school, I accompainied brett to look for a mother's day present for his mommy :) that was cool. I got home annnd. That was that. I was suppose to "study" but that didn't happen, I procrastinated, went online til I got tired. And I promised myself to get up early in the morning, but that didn't happen. I set my alarm at 420am (I checked it like 5 times before I was secure enough to know it's on), then when that went off, I was like "eehhhh okay 445am" then when that went off i was like "ehhhh okay 520" then when that went off... I was "ehhhh okay 545am" then I just gave up on myself and woke up the lastest I could. 6:00am. Yay go me. Studing didn'thappen that morning. (friday)
FRIDAY! Friday, I spent 2nd period (my study period) doing my physics vocab. Precalc, I ended up procrastinating and complaining to chris that 'I hate math' and 'I want to go home' and blah blah blah. School ends. I wanted to watch a movie, but boo hoo, no one to go with and no one was able to come :( that saddened me. I went home and slept a little bit. My family came home and I had to watch the Health Video cuz that day was the last day, but the health place was closed! :( so we have to pay another 35 dollars. BOO HOO! okay, so after realizing the health place was closed, we went to Super Walmart! Wahoo! ~_~ I wasn't feeling to well, so I stayed in the car. In the car, everything hit me. I started to day dream about everything (friends, life and even love (<--can you believe that?) and think about everything which kind of made me a little teary eyed. I explained this on my LJ (i put it on prvate though..). I felt kind of lonely at the time. I wish someone was there. After Walmart, we went to chinatown and got some smoothies. Then we went home.
Saturday I woke up pretty late and was 4 minutes late to work! Work was retarted. I hate work. People are so deaf. It irritated me A LOT. After work finally, my sister and I went to the mall, and looked for a gift for my mommy! My sisters and I pitched in to buy a Dooney & Bourke purse =D yayy! I'm very happy that we bought her that. That drained my wallet ~_~ It's okay though, it's for my mom.
Sunday We went to the mall.. AGAIN! (the mall is like my 2nd home) we looked for a pres-y for my grandma and auntie. Then when we got home, I went straight to work! WHOO *my favorite place in the world....* I got off early!! though. Instead of 9pm I got off at 7pm. YAY! There were too many people working in the Box Office. Heh. Okay so after that I went home. No worries. I went online and talked to a few people =D which I love. But I'm not talking to anyone anymore *sad*...... but no worries.
On saturday, I saw Gene, and Sunday I saw Randy (at work) =D so that was nice. I like seeing people at work because it brightens up my day. It honestly does. :) :)
I've also come to realize i SHOULDN'T expect so much from people, because I'll end up being DISSAPPOINTED. I expect to much from people, maybe that's why I rant too much
Anyway, that is all.
Later Days!

I just got done watching Love Actually. I didn't think it would be a good movie when it came out in theatres, but it really is a nice movie. :) It gave me a warm feeling inside. <3
I have this feeling in my stomach. I'm not sure what it is. I'm not sick, but I have this feeling. It's crazy I tell you. I feel like something is gonna happen. =]
I'm so glad the Tech UNLV project is done! I can relax! I got like 2 1/2 hours of sleep last night working on the Phases of the bridge for my 'group'. Oh well, I hope we get a good grade on it. I really hope we do. I hope we end up being the BEST group because we (daniel and I) worked very hard on it. Aly is included too, I guess.
Anyway, I got in trouble for dress code. They make me feel like a slut. It's very annoying how they ignore the prostitutes of the school and come to me, the one very opposite from a girly-girl at that. Wolfson is cooperative though. Actually, after getting in house, I'm suprised the violation after that is less worse. (? did that make sense ? ) Oh well, like I care.
So far I'm having a good day. I'm not letting anything get to me anymore. THAT reminds me.
I was just thinking. When guys fold their arms... and you could see their muscles... It turns me on (even if they are small...). I'm like "Oh baby". Ha Ha Ha Ha
alright. later days.

Okay, my week hasn't been bad yet, but it's only monday. I probably jinxed it.
I've noticed that i can become jealous easily. I don't let it get to me as much as most people though. But I can get insecure about some people. Whether I mean as much to that person as other people are to them. Did that make sense? I don't know. I just want to apologize because I feel bad that i'm being very rude to people who don't deserve it at all. I hope you know who you are. i'm not even sure you read this.. even though you say you do. I'm sorry.
Anyway, I got a cowboy hat today. I persuaded my mom to buy it. I told her I'd pay her back, hopefully that won't happen. =D I'm happy right now, and I hope that will stay. I need to lighten up. I really do. I have to stop being so irritable. You guys just don't understand how it's very uncontrollable. In other case, just be nice to me, and i'll be very nice to you. Then we'll both be happy!
I hope I don't work that much this weekend. I might go out. And Sunday is Mothers Day. ^_^. I don't want to work! Well, I hope I don't, I don't care about the money.. because I just want a free weekend. THIS WEEKEND.
Sometimes I feel left out. This one friend really means a lot to me. Yet that person doesn't include me in anything. I don't think that person realizes it because i'm not one to start any drama. But I feel bad about it. Then I end up getting bitter to that person. I should control my temper.
I guess i'll go now.
Have a great day.

Ummm... SO! Should I really talk about my week? HA HA HA HA! Lets just say.... WORST WEEK EVER! I've also decided on a lot of things. I'm NOT going to take calculus next year. I'm just going to take classes that I know I'll atleast do well in..without make my life stressful because I'm getting really bad grades. I know I won't do well in calculus. I would if I studied like crazy. Which I know I won't do. I thought I would do well this year, but that obviously didn't happen. I have to stop procrastinating. I have to start paying attention because I do want to go to AFA. I've planned on going there for a year now. I promised myself last summer that I would not procrastinate and that I would do BETTER in school. I didn't fufill that. I feel like a failure. My chances in getting into that school very unlikely now. I can't believe myself sometimes. I'm not myself anymore. I'm not doing homework. I'm not doing well on my tests. What am I doing to myself? Everyone says they procrastinate and slack off. Those are the kids who get like A's and B's. Well, my friends, if you get those, you don't procrastinate as much as I do.. In fact, you don't procrastinate at all. I'm ashamed of my transcript. You just don't know. No one knows how bad it really is. I don't even think my parents know how bad it really is. Maybe that's why they don't really disipline me as much as other parents do with their children. In fact, I don't think I showed them my report card since I started high school. I don't lie to them. I tell them what I get in person.
Anyway, yesterday was pretty bad. I was going to call in at work. But I didn't! I'm glad I didn't either because I actually enjoyed work. I'm really beginning to realize the benefits I get even with the low pay. The people who work there are really cool and the managers are really nice too. I get free movies, posters, drinks, and discounts at the food court. Not bad, I tell you! So work was pretty good. :)
I really appreciate those who asked me how I was on friday. I was really upset. More upset than I remember being. I think that was the point where I really wanted someone to be there with me... wiping my tears. (That obviously didn't happen.) Lol. Oh well. I'm fine. And those of you who I did tell (those very special people =P) thanks a bunch for listening. I felt I kind of explained it to them bad though, like I was a wimp. I doubt it though. They know how that I don't cry at things that aren't worth crying about. They know I'm more of a fighter. And I could stick up for myself. One of the three i told saw me crying and he got it right on the dot to why I was crying. He could've said a bunch of things. Somehow I feel that he doesn't know he says the right things? Actually, I think it's quite funny, attractive, and somewhat confusing. Seriously. I'm not even that close to him. But everytime I'm really pissed about something or in this case upset. He says something that i'll just make me feel better. And he says it very simple. The other two... were nice understanding too. So i'm glad about that. =D =D =D
I also have one question to guys. When you asked a girl if she has a boyfriend and she says "no". Why do you ask "WHY?".
okay... that is all.
Later days.
