It’s time to reflect upon other events that transpired during and after Junior year, especially taken place in the summer of 2007, through email, blogs, pictures, among other things.
I remember taking summer school this summer… Driver’s Ed And Health. I had the same teacher, Mr… I can’t remember! But Eden, Judy, Chris, Julie, Lina, and Can were those among in my class. I would show you the video we made in that class (called Teeth and Gums), but iol session, I had driving instructing t was taken down by the Youtube user. Shrugs.
After my summer school, I had “hands-on” driving instructing… it was really bad, I feel as though the driving instructor didn’t teach me very well. I remember crashing into 2 mailboxes, whoops. My dad re-trained me, even better than the driving instructor did. After failing to the pass the test TWICE, I finally passed the third time, no thanks to my idiotic driving instructor. Oh well.
Meanwhile, from my XANGA Archives from summertime:
July 04, 2007 10:37 PM
One hundred and thirty one years ago, a great nation – America was born. The Land of the free and the home of the brave. July 4th, 1776.
So how do I feel about it? I feel good to be a part of this great country. I will always love it no matter what.
In other news, Summer school is a blast. Our teacher, Joe Hay magically got nicer. He was pretty bitchy the first day of class, but surprisingly he changed into a loving and actually life-teaching, life-changing teacher. As for the class, it’s super easy. Notes, and not much homework. However, we do a lot of class participation and presentations in that class. Yeah… it’s not exactly a speech class.
I’ve finished my summer homework, except I’ve saved the best for last – Cry, the Beloved Country. I will start reading on Saturday and finish the notebook by the end of this month (that’s early), and proofread it till it’s due date in August.
Senior Pictures next Friday, I need to dress up and probably look nice for that. Not too excited for that… since it’s the same day summer school ends. Surprisingly, I will miss the teacher. Speaking of seniors year, I’m “technically” a senior now. How do I feel? Kind of old but kind of relieved. One more year and I don’t have to face the posers and conformists at Rancho for a while. I will however miss the people in honors/AP classes that I’ve grown a mutual bond with. =[
As for over-analyzing myself, I always seem to have an obsession. This has been true since freshmen year. What has happened to me, I wonder? Sheesh. From Avril Lavigne to JoJo to Vanessa Carlton to 24 to Miley Cyrus, life seems to go round and round. Not to mention the girls I’ve liked at Rancho. Hopefully English AP next year can preoccupy me enough so that I don’t have ANY obsessions.
I need to write a few things I’ll probably forget if I don’t type it here… you can probably ignore it cause it’s either personal or you don’t give a fuck. Nhi still owes me ice cream and food. I still need to get a job – last resort OC Fair again. SIGH.
My computer crashed a few weeks ago, and it died. I lost all my stuff forever.
I really need to make a new website, and perhaps over analyze my past again.
I close this xanga blog with some song lyrics.
When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you’re gone
The pieces of my heart are missin’ you
When you’re gone
The face I came to know is missin’, too
When you’re gone
The words I need to hear
To always get me through the day
And make it okay.

I haven’t updated this blog in a long time.
No idea why…
I guess it’s time AGAIN to reexamine my journey towards Senior Year.I know I haven’t exactly done things perfectly, but I try my best to maintain a balance of friendships and happiness in my life.
I’ve made a ton of mistakes, especially in high school, mostly related to girls. Giving too much, giving too little, revealing too much, revealing too little, being spot on, being spot off, sabotage, etc.
& Through my experiences, I’ve found out who I can and cannot trust. It’s obvious who I’m going to communicate with AFTER high school, and who I simply won’t even bother to talk to EVER AGAIN.
Okay, as for my summer… I haven’t been up to anything too important. I got my free Ipod and Hannah Montana cd in the mail though.
Adios!

Wow.
Summer sure went by fast.
Not really. Now that I have a job, I can afford my own necessities in life. (24 dvds?)
Registration is tomorrow. I look forward to seeing my friends yet again. I don’t look forward to the classes. Boo.I realize my errors throughout all of high school – I’ve been way too reluctant to actually take opportunity – grasp what is given to me, and excel with it. In others words, I ask for too much.
Girls. This year, I make a promise to myself to not actually get involved with that drama. It’s so lame. and in high school, nobody is really sure what they even want in a life partner.
Of course, all those Disney Channel Shows where two best friends hook up is quite bittersweet. But really, how often does that happen in life?
I realize the criticism of the Disney Channel for downplaying life, and making high school and the world seem like a much happier place than it actually is. However, showing “good television” is a lot better than the other crap on television. Desperate Housewives? Grey’s Anatomy? SEX SEX SEX! all over the television.
However, I realize that some Disney Channel Shows are better than others. WTF happened to Boys Meet World? Now we have crap like Corey in the House, NOT funny. Hannah Montana + Suite Life of Zach and Cody are good….., Life with Derek is pretty good too..
Okay. So the new FOX fall season is coming up . Hooray..
What else can I say? Hmm…. Well, I’m looking forward to Senior year. I want high school to end. Why? I just do. Goodbye, drama. Goodbye, immature imbeciles who rule the school. Goodbye, high school for once I leave , I will NEVER come back.

Oh Wow. One more year of school, and I’m an adult.
Somehow I think it requires a Rite of Passage… something a little less conformist than the graduation ceremony.Anyway, they messed up on my schedule again (no surprise there, right?)
Here’s my current schedule:1 ENVIRM SC AP DURAND R 303
2 LIT/COMP AP HAMAMOTO 702
3 HEALTH ED SR JULIAN T 613
4 SPN LNG AP P NEVAREZ 603
5 CIVC AG AP D DANL L 408
6 CALCU AB AP PHAM-VU 209Health? WTF. I already took that in the summer. and Bullshit! I’m not taking Spanish AP. If they try to force that on me, I NEVER signed up for it. I have enough to deal with with environmental, english, civics, and calculus AP.
Hopefully I get 5 classes, and they’re easy. geezz louis.
September 02, 2007 2:17 PM
