Recap: EPIC WEEKENDS

Okay so since I failed to post about my adventure last weekend, I decided to combine my two super epic weekends all into one post ^^

So last weekend Court, my parents, and I went down to LA for the Hollywood Bowl.

I think we left the house around 2AMish, so we didn't get there til like, 9-10AMish.
[PT.1 - in the car, on the way]


[PT.2 - @ San Antonio Winery]


We made a stop at the San Antonio Winery because apparently their wine's really good and it was the reason why my parents were willing to drive us all the way to LA--to buy some good wine >_> haha. But whatever, the man that helped us was nice, he gave Court and I a bottle of like, sparkling peach juice. It was fancy ;o haha ^^
Then after that, we went to go search for our hotel. Once we found it, we realized we couldn't check in til 2PM and it was like, 10AMish and my parents were hungry so we hung out at this one plaza at the corner of the street our hotel was on.

[PT.2.99 - Beverly Center randomness]


Soon after, Ben and Wonga met us at the corner plaza :D Funny meeting. But since Weenee was running late, we had to wait. Unfortunately, many of SoCal friends couldn't make it so we ended up just hanging out with Ben, Wonga and Weenee :D First, we went to the Beverley Center. Apparently nothing went as planned and we kind of just ran around doing nothing while people gave us weird looks :]

[PT.3 - "cat and mouse"]


So yeah, we pretty much did nothing but walk around because we didn't have time to watch a movie. And Weenee kept running away so we had to go look for him -.- lameoh d; Lalala and I attempted to steal Ben's domo hat (IFREAKINWANTIT D:) buttttt he ran after and caught me T_T Lol Wonga filmed it.

After that, we cruised around Ktown. And because Court and I hadn't eaten yet, we went out for lunch. We found this random Korean restaraunt and ate there. Lol lunch was interesting xD PORNO MANIA FTW! LOLOL.
We drove around Ktown for a bit then after that, we went to Chinatown. Chinatown was...amusing. POPWATCHUMACALLITS PWN :] haha. We had fun with those. But yeah, we kinda just walked around and chilled. Ben bought me boba :D

[PT.4 - ]


After Ctown, we didn't have enough time to go to the Santa Monica Pier like we planned/hoped so we ended up going to the park because that's how the cool kids roll ;D xD
The park was definitely memorable. Lalala it was chill. We enjoyed the whole "releashing your inner kid" ordeal x]
After that, we had to go back because the HB was supposed to start at 6:30PM however, I ended up not going because I gave my mom my ticket for Mother's Day. She loves SS501 and I know how badly she wanted to see Hyunjoon in person so I was feeling nice and gave her my ticket so she took my place and went with Court. Which left me 4 hours to do absolutely nothing at the hotel. Haha, bonding time with dad much? lol but after a while, I got bored and chilled by the pool by myself. Then I ventured around the hotel and there was this creepy guy following me so I freaked out and ran back to my room lol. Then I took a nap but yeah. It was chill and good rest after a long and hot day.

But yeah, despite the failed plans, it was still a lot of fun :] I definitely won't forget that day xD



ANDANDAND then the weekend after was the EPIK HIGH CONCERT IN SF! :D
Met up with Lauren Friday night and we went to SF together. We friggin had to walk up super steep hills but whatever, once we got there it was like Asian heaven xD The place was flocked with Asian people :3
Uhmmm but we didn't get shirts D: There was a friggin mob around the table and there was this big white guy yelling at everyone haha. So we found our seats WHICH WERE SUPER DUPER CLOSE TO THE STAGE :O --Section 1, Row 3 ;D It was lovely.
The concert lineup went as follows: Far East Movement, Kero One, then Epik High 8D
Far East Movement was realllly upbeat and fun. THEY THREW A PAIR OF SEXY SHOES TO THE CROWD. UGGGH WE WERE SO CLOSE, FRIGGIN COURT SHOULDA RAN AND ATTACKED THE GUY WHO CAUGHT THEM D: They were super sexy shoes ;_; And they also threw like, two shirts but we didn't get them D: But chyeah. Dammit Lauren and I were supposed to rape the guy with the purple backpack and sexy purple shoes ;__; ...we forgot. lol
Kero One was chill. Kinda boring at first but it was okay. Took them a while to set up their stuff due to technical difficulties but I think everyone was kinda bleh during his perf because we were all anticipating Epik High x] HAHA, there was this random weird lady on the stage with Kero One and she like, danced awkwardly in the background. We had fun watching her awkwardness. xD
THENTHENTHEN EPIK HIGH CAME ON!!!!!! First they put DJ Tukutz and the beatboxing man out to get us pumped. Then Tablo, Mithra, and MYK came on. IT WAS AMAZINGGGG. THEY'RE AMAZINGGGGG. TABLO'S SO SEXY IN PERSON<3 He spit water on Lauren and I, TWICE ;D I was so happy. LOL. Omg they were sooo nice and humble and cute and such dorks. TABLO IS SO SEXY IN PERSON! AHH I STILL CAN'T GET OVER THAT. We were SOOO close to them too @__@ Ahhhhh. I want his beanie x_x
At one point, the whole crowd ran up to the stage so there was a mosh pit surrounding the WHOLE stage. We couldn't get to the front so Lauren and I ended up standing on the armrests of our seats xD Which put us straight in front, and higher than everyone else. So close, I could almost reach Tablo if he stretched his arm out far enough. HE SMILED AT ME @_@ MITHRA DID TOO :D AND THE BEATBOX MAN :D AND MYK! Wahhh<3
The concert was just alltogether fun. OH, and at one point Jommi came over to say hi xD He's so short bahah :]

So then after the concert, Court and I spent the night over at Lauren's house. GOODTIMES x]
We talked about a lot of stuff and had some interesting phone calls with other people. HAHA, I LOVE LAUREN'S MAN VOICE. We screamed so much at the concert, we practically lost our voices. I managed to preserve mine but Lauren's was practically gone so she sounded like a pedo old man when she talked because of the huskiness xD<3 Mhmm, that night was funfunfun ^^
Then the next day, Saturday, Lauren's parents dropped us off at my house and then Jommi and Steeb came over. Then we went to Emeryville to watch Star Trek ^^ Mm, oh we went to Cold Stones before the movie ^-^ BUT ZOMG STAR TREK IS SO GOOD. I DEMAND YOU TO WATCH IT, NAO. :D Thennn after that we chilled at Barnes and Nobles til Lauren and I had to go.

Two great weekends. I'm happy. (:

Yes, this is true.

Eddie - Over


I used to believe in happily ever afters.
But now I'm starting to realize that...there is no such thing.
Forever does not exist.
Fairytale endings do not exist.
There's only the harsh realization that once we survive the pain, life goes on.
And sometimes, no matter how badly we don't want to...we gotta let go.


Don’t want to let you go
I really don’t want to see you go
But it’s time for us to say goodbye
I hate to say it’s over now.
Don’t want to let you go
I really don’t want to feel so cold
It’s so hard for me to say goodbye
I hate to say it’s over now
I hate to say it’s over now
I hate to say it’s over now

I hate to say it’s over now.

Find the girl who can complete you and give you everything I couldn't.
...I'm sorry I couldn't give you everlasting happiness but I'm glad you'll remain in my life<3


Goodbye and hello.

I told myself I wouldn't cry.

My heart aches.
...and my eyes burn.




You’re not mine, so why am I scared as hell to lose you?




I have a lot to think about.
Time to reevaluate what I want.

We do da byebye.

Off to L.A I go~

Look forward to a huge long update on Sunday ^^

:D

Strawberries and Watermelons

Yesterday...my lamp broke.
I like, tripped over the cord when I was getting ready for school and it fell and the lampshade ripped off upon impact with my floor. D: Pooooo and I really liked that lamp too ;_;
Oh, and Happy belated 16th, Courtney! I was too lazy to post yesterday so there. lol

MY HEART'S BURNING...of love. No jk, but it really it is really burning...of pain. D: LITERAL PAIN. I ran too hard today and almost passed out ><' And now my legs are shaking like crazy and I can feel a burning sensation from my throat to my lungs. My inhaler did nothing for me. I was so close to an asthma attack, it was horrible. On the bright side, no practice tomorrow ^^ I want to go shopping. Shopping yesterday was unsuccessful for me. T_T I want to buy something pretty before Saturday D: Though I get the feeling I'm going to do a lot of shopping Saturday and Sunday anyways d; BEN AND WEENEE OWE ME BOBA (Weenee owes me sushi too >] muaha!) :D I'm looking forward to that.



Uh, yeah. That's about it for today.

Here's a random video of my cousins and I at the park last Sunday haha.




...everytime I try to walk away, there's always something that reminds me I should stay.

The good, the bad, the happy, the sad.

5 days later. Lol.

So last Thursday, we had a track meet. We totally pwned in the 4x100 relay :]

That's my relay team, they're amazing<3 (Left to right: Lauren, Jenna, Kennedy, ME :D)
I run the first leg, pass it to Jenna, she hands it off to Kennedy, and Lauren anchors or in other words, finishes. 52.3 seconds, so far, we placed 4th in the county :] YAYY!
As for individual races, I got 6th out of 16 girls in the 100m dash. Eh, I did okay. Not great though but I could care less because TRACK SEASON'S OFFICIALLY OVER NEXT THURSDAY. YESSSSS! 8D I'm so ready for this season to end. I'm like, dying. And I think I'm going to quit next year...not sure yet ;o

ANYWAYS, to make up for the days I missed, I'm just going to briefly describe my days:

Friday was uneventful. Slept at 9PM (ZOMGMIRACLE!) because I had SATs the next morning. Toro's a butthead because he was asleep when I called! d;

Saturday was the SAT @ El Cerrito High. 4 hours of poo. It sucked. I died.
Taking the SAT II Subject tests on June 6th. @__@ Then the SAT Reasoning again in October. FML. But I saw a lot of people I haven't seen since middle school so that was nice ^^

Sunday was Court's birthday party (though her birthday's not til tomorrow).
It was fun hanging out with the fambam--haven't done that in a while ;o
Friggin Andy ditched us but you know, it's cool. It's not like we wanted to hang out with you after no seeing you at a family event for months anyways d;. So you know, it's whatever. (YOULAMEHOE! d<) But yeah, Court's a rich butt-itch now. She got so much stuff and money T__T I'm jealous. I wish I still had my money from my 16th ;_; TAKE ME SHOPPING FOO :D

Monday, it rained the whole day and my darn coach still made us go to practice. We ran out in the rain for a good hour. I was soaked all over. -__-' MY RUNNING SHOES ARE SOILED NOW, HOW GROSS >__<>_> Now my ankles hurt. Uhm, but yeah, Monday was tiring. I feel asleep on cam ;o SORRY BEN! Oh, and AILOAN'S AN NWT BECAUSE I SAID SO :D

Tuesday--TODAY. I'm stuck at school til 9PM tonight because of the damn AP US History test on Friday. I don't get home til 9PM. And I can't even go home in between T__T Gah. Funfun ne?

So yeah, right now...my brain feels like it's going to explode. Weeeeeeee. Emotionally, I'm drained and utterly clueless as to what's going on anymore. But let's not go there. I'm giving it time but keep in mind that waiting was something I was never good at. Physically, I'm exhausted. Kind of achey and sore in random areas from my ankles to my hamstrings. Uhoh.
Lalalalalalalalala. Man, I haven't been very happy lately. o_O That's unfortunate. I'm sure things will look up soon. They better >O But I guess I'll just have to suck it up and stick it out for a little while longer.

YAY FOR THIS WEEKEND, AND NEXT WEEKEND! I'M EXCITED ^^


I've been addicted to this song lately: Knock You Down by Keri Hilson feat. Neyo and Kanye West. But in this video, the cover is sung by Rin on the Rox. THEY'RE AMAZING :] Grrr, darn you vocally gifted YouTube singers *shakes fist*

Enjoy! :]



...I've built a wall. Not to block anyone out, but to see who loves me enough to climb over it.
