Friday, February 20, 2004 i got into the arc using vanessa's id again. i was able to fit in 20 minutes or so on the stairmaster while reading cosmo. ooh, juicy stuff. everyone else was playing basketball outside. they are so intense, i'm scared to even watch. peter's such a big baby about playing outdoors. he's afraid he'll get his hands dirty and dry. i sure hope he was joking.my turtles still aren't eating. i dont' know what to do. i have one energy bar left and 1/3 of naked orange juice left. my family devours food like nothing. and my sister isn't even home! she eats like crazy sometimes too. it's been really nice since she left for san francisco. i finally have my room back. i swear, it's like i don't even have my own room these days. it's like i'm sharing a room with her again. but it's been nice this past week b/c things are left the way i left them. chris almost got me. i almost gave in. wait, i did give in. but then i remembered i don't have any money. peter said he didn't want to go either. well, no, he said he doesn't have any money, tux, or suit. i dont' have money, or shoes. i was okay holding out and not going, but once i said okay, i got my hopes up. and then i remembered that peter and i have no money, yeah. i'm sad now. if i didn't say okay, i would have been fine. i had to go and give in! i told chris i'll be in the car drinking. no worries. anyways, crazy things going on wiht my banks. i think i'm out 120 bucks b/c of bank charges. it's a long story that has gotten me worried and exhausted this afternoon. it's just one big headache. i made so many phone calls to my banks. luckily my cousin (she works at wells fargo) came through and told me what i could do to maybe get this fixed. Thursday, February 19, 2004 hahaha. funny story. i called my mom last night around 10 b/c i knew i wasn't going to see her when i got home. she asked where i was and i said i was at peter's studying. she then said to me, "remember what i told you. remember to take things slow." this was about when i rolled my eyes and was thinking, 'oh my god, i can't believe she's doing this again." she continued talking, and then said "i see you, i know how it is." and that's when she got my attention. with vietnamese words being so ambiguous, i said to myself, "you see us?!? like in my room?? what!?" but she continued talking and said, "just remember what i told you." oh my god, and people wonder why i'm so cautious?? i can't get away from it. even when i try, my mom still somehow says one thing and makes me more cautious ten-fold. hahah, funny story, no?my phone died yesterday and i didn't get chris and vanessa's call. this would be a good time to say that i appreciate those calls even if they are to just to see what i'm doing or a call to see if i want to get coffee, etc. i remember i time when i didn't get those calls, and that made me sad. but now i'm not so whoop whoop. anyways, my reasoning for going home last night was to take care of my turtles. i bought them a heat lamp and a rock. i still need to get a filter. dude, the filters cost like 15 bucks. the lamp cost me 20. i should have just checked out what kind of lightbulb and just bought myself any old lamp. dumb! i hope my turtles are okay, i can't really tell. one of them just sits on the rock. maybe he's sleeping. haha, another funny story. so there's this girl that had met peter 2 weeks before i did. she had liked him and then i came swooping in. anyways, i think she still likes him. so she called him yesterday and asked him to get her some theraflu cuz she was sick. i guess she thought he'd be working or something. he told her he couldn't get it until after 6. hahaha, i dont' even ask anyone to get me medication. and if i needed medication, i don't think i could have waited till 6 for it. i told peter he should bring her soup too. he said, no, only for me. aww. funny story, no? (it'd be even funnier if you knew what was going on at school. i feel like i'm in high school. confessions of a teenage drama queen....yeah!) gotta go! late for shcool! Wednesday, February 18, 2004 i don't know how chris can do it. play basketball all day. i know he can usually play for hours, but my back hurts so much. and my butt.thank you vanessa for the turtles. i hope they will last until i can get them a heat lamp or at least find out how to care for them. i still need to name them. one of them keeps walking into the corner of the tank/box. i woke up this morning and one was on it's back. it freaked me out. Monday, February 16, 2004 thank you chris for the beautiful pictures.valentine's day yesterday. it's great hype. but i went along with it. dinner for two at cheesecake factory. i took him out, i opened the door for him, i let him choose dessert. it was my idea b/c i've been talking about taking him out to dinner one of these days for the past 2 months. yeh, i'm all talk. you guys all know it. i came up with the bright idea of getting there before 6, and sure enough, it was a bright idea. we didn't have to wait as long as everyone else. (you know, 2 1/2 hours is much better than 3-4 hours) and good thing i live so close that i was able to go home for an hour. peter brought giradelli chocolate covered strawberries. which are still sitting in my fridge because we were both so tired and sleepy after dinner. well, i'm always sleepy after dinner. food coma. but you will never see peter fall asleep unless it was bed time. well, i guess the food was so good that he had food coma (actually, he was exhausted from work) and fell asleep with me watching snl. my parents went out last night. aww, isn't that cute? they usually don't go out, so it was a big surprise. my sister was home by herself, so when we got back from dinner, i invited her to watch tv with us. she is such a geek, she was doing her homework the whole time. and the thing is, she doesn't even have school for a whole week!
