Caucus H

I'm going to UCLA. (Hey what's wrong with the UC's? Not 1337 enough for you? Huh?!?) It was a decision between that and UC Berkeley, a better school in terms of name but way too close to home... and I'd rather live in LA than Berkeley. Many, MANY (as in almost all) people I know are going to a school in the California public education system... How about you guys? Do your people tend to flock to privates or publics, close or far from home?

Congratulations on getting into Yale jeeze! I got rejected from Stanford too btw

Congratulations for everyone else & their colleges!

The school year is almost over thank god. Hearing other people talk, I sometimes feel like where I live is on another planet. I'm clinging to the Pacific, and I think I'll continue to scoot around here...maybe I'll make it to Japan, China or Peru someday.

In response to the college choices: UC(K) *laughs uncontrollably*

Hey everybody.

I applied to seven colleges, five of them UCs (University of California campuses). I'm hoping for those. I haven't really thought much about how long it's been, but really - I guess it has been about a year at the point in time that I'm writing this. I can't wait for all the senior good stuff (prom... a lot)... but I also just want to get on the other side of finals so I can relax a bit... (at least until AP testing!). I'm doing Winter Percussion, which appears to be going in an unsatisfactory direction, but I don't quit. I'm thinking about trying to find a job afterward - to get some experience behind my belt. (I still am a true job virgin!)

What I have to say to that Bridget Jones' quote: "ugh..."

Happy New Years... belatedly. Do the words scene, emo, punkster mean anything to anyone?

I want to see whether it's blogger that won't publish my last post, or if it's just my particular website. If this entry gets published immediately then my site has a problem.

What kinds of pics are you looking for ??? Just random ones of us people? ... heh , b/c we ran out of the ones of us together long ago. I have ones of me & my antics up on my site for instance... (http://dabigkahiti.blogspot.com/#goods)

But what about everyone else?

yea how about them pics

never to late to post pics

Um.... Happy 420 Day?

Oh... nobody has sent me any new albums or anything so can't help you there.

just to note... its been rather a long dry spell. no picture posts... in months. this is pathetic guys, get them up.

Mleh! Your spring break sounds like fun...I'm supposed to go looking at colleges. Never been to Florida, I had the chance to this year with the band but decided going on a band trip to Florida would be a waste of time...er money. See I went to NYLC, and this summer I'm going on a People to People trip to Europe, and then my French friend invited me to go with her back to France after senior year and meet all her French friends. I have a feeling someone is going to say something about France...but you know some have about as much to do with the French president as I have to do with Bush...that is.... very little.

I thought I knew what D2 was vaguely but not really.... I forgot. Some RPG?

*smiles and nods* although i actually know what you're talking about, i still feel like it. give me your d2 thingie, im playing again. mine/my brother's is abuelosdenoche (i know thats really bad grammar, but my little brother made it)

terrence

Hey that's awesome that softball is starting & you now have a boyfriend - hope he's great. Hehe, prom day is a busy day. I'm taking the SAT I that day. Mleh - The sleep issue is one of some importance, although I usually tend to ignore it. My friend in Tracy said that an article was published in the local paper that pissed off all of the IB students and that strikes me as kind of funny because Jacob was a pround pin-wearing member of IB and the article said:

"Parents in Fairfax, Virginia, have succeeded in getting rid of one of the endless series of fad programs that distract American public schools from real education in real subjects. Like most fad programs, this one had a high-sounding name: The International Baccalaureate Curriculum.

It also has a left-wing hidden agenda, as so many other fad programs do. One of the program's supporters gushed that it teaches students "how to think globally" and "how to make us part of the world."" (read it)

I know absolutely nothing about IB, we don't have it at my school. Eh, I got new glasses? Lol, and I'm also making preparations for my trip through Europe this summer. Okay, I better go.

sorry for my delay-ed-ness...it seems I only do things when I'm supposed to be doing other things so (if that makes any sense)... Happy17th, Terrence! - I was going to dye my hair red! This color, but in this style.

Snow? No, no snow here...it's been really sunny lately actually. Congrats about superior! ^__^ That's also good that your friends are feeling a bit better about you making other friends, Virginia, hehe.

Jacob disappeared, but I think Jennifer has finally gotten her blogger account to work...if you're somewhere, out there, former roomie....

We're watching parts of the Godfather in Ethnic & Cult Diversity now since we started Italians. Oh, speaking of politics, one of my friends just started a political club for kids who feel as if they don't fit in with the "overwhelming majority of moderates (i.e. Republicans & Democrats) in California" ... it should be interesting.... I guess.... LOL, I'm not quite sure what's going down there - but I am going to be the secretary, even tho I don't think I'm an extremist, that's what makes it interesting.

for all of you active and interested posters, terrence is now 17 (since the 24th), go him. and he has red streaks in his hair. go him again. and he has his braces off. go him yet another time. and hes really really sleepy, so hell write a more coherent post in the first person some other time.

Jacob: Win the war? That's questionable...and people are still fighting about it and want US out. Isn't it Bush who wants to deprive people of liberty? Amendments to the constitution (except for Prohibition and that was repealed) always expanded rights, and Bush wants to take them away with that new amendment. BTW blog = web log. Yeah, well have a happy week.

Virginia: Well I hope you did well in that competition...hehe, I think your friends are just a little bit insulted about you saying that you got to know people at NYLC better than any of them.

It's been pouring over here. It really looks like Ireland to me now (my city's name is Dublin, and no I've never been to Ireland) But we were watching an old classic movie made in Ireland i nEthnic & Cultural Diverstiy...the one that has a scene in ET. (THe door is blowing in the wind, the guy swings the girl around & kisses her). Eh - I've been wearing myself out for no good reason at all. I beginning to think I'm mentally unbalanced...alright ttyl

Well this message board is just flaming isn't it? (sarcasm) It's nice to see that y'all weren't just a figment of my imagination. It's not very springlike here in N. Calif anymore... All my tests are going to be crammed into May and June blah. Not taking the SAT I too many times, some ppl I know are taking it over & over...good luck on the ACT, Justine. Pues, Tengo ir...work on homework or something. Have a good life...

yo. a post.

Hey everybody, I know the URL is kinda dumb but at least it's easy to remember... well i gotta split but i'm sending the invitations out now. Hopefully yall figure out how this works, it's not too hard. Just make an account through the invitation and this blog should show up on the right hand side when you log in...or something like that.

How about suggestions for a title & description for this site... Also if anyone is fluent in html & wants to change the layout just tell me so I can assign admin rights to access the template (this one is preset).... Oh yeah, and sorry the time set is for california but you have to choose one.

Also, I added the link to Myriah's 65 digital pix to the photo collection so go check that out. ^_^

Oh an BTW, what was that one song by like Mr. John or Dr. Jones or something that "every Southerner should know"??? It was the first song they played at the dance & half the ppl were singing along to it...
