time flies

I can't believe it's almost October. You know what that means? 5 more months until I'm 21! haha. Anyway, I haven't been doing anything but going to training everyday this week 9am to 6pm. We've been getting out early, except for today. There are so many nit picky things to remember! But it's ok, I really like BofA, especially after I read about ALL of the benefits! Well, I didn't even read them ALL either, and I'm already happy! I get discounts of DISNEYLAND tickets! I get no or low interest on credit cards! I get an associate discount on my Verizon account! I get tuition reimbursement every year! And much much MUCH more. I've met a wide range of people this week.. the people in my training class. Some are married, some have children, some are much much older and younger. One girl is my age and she just got MARRIED this past summer! I thought that was pretty cool, but she's still in school. I don't think I'm gonna get married any time soon. I've got way too much schooling ahead of me still. Besides going to training everyday (and missing school!!!! hopefully I won't be too behind on Tuesday), I've just been spending my evenings here at home catching up on some rest. Also been watching the Giants.. too bad they're losing REALLY badly right now to the Padres 9 to 1!!! What a shame! I haven't seen my beloved since Sunday =( but we'll be reuniting this weekend, hopefully before that. Ok I'm lazy now... until next month (2 days), bye my readers.

p.s. It feels so good to have 3 out of my 4 credit cards paid off! I also closed the credit card that I still need to finish paying off. BUT, I charged on one of my cards to buy something, but I'm planning to pay that off with my next paycheck.. so I guess technically right now, I have 2 out of 4 credit cards paid off.

back to being busy and already getting tired

I woke up with a really bad hangover this morning and threw up TWICE. I hate throwing up... the last time I threw up was in august after our big family party. blah! I also woke up and I didn't have my hibiscus necklace on! I looked outside and it was on the cement next to my door! If I had lost that thing... I don't know what I would've done. I also remember being really tired and wanting to just pass out, but Jonathan had to walk me to my door. He brought me to my room and to my bed, but when I heard the front door close and lock, I got up! I was upset because he didn't give me my pajamas and just let me sleep in my jeans and tank!!! I think he got annoyed because he just drove off =( sorry babe. I went back inside, changed, and passed out. It was a weird night at Jeremy's house... I dunno. Something else also provoked me to drink as much as I did, but that's something I'll have to discuss with my bf later on...

So since my last post, I started school and started training at my new job. I almost went to school on Tuesday even though school didn't start until Thursday, so good thing I double checked the calendar and called some friends. So school is cool, I'm taking 3 classes = 15 units, and 1 class had no section/lab and the other 2 classes have optional discussions/labs. It kinda sucks that I have to miss all next week because of teller school, but I think I'll be able to handle it.

Bank of America is cool. The people are really cool, and they already invited me to go clubbing with them, but eh, I'm not 21 yet. It sucks so much. I have like 5 months and 20 something days until I turn 21... 20 is such a teaser age and I hate it =( Jonathan's been 21 for almost 10 months already and he's gonna be 22 soon! What an oldie.

Anyway, speaking of Jonathan and I, we're doing just fine. I've been sending him pictures of rings.. haha. Don't worry, I don't want to get married, I just want a cute pretty ring! But I don't want one if he really doesn't want to give me one. I just thought that since we've been together for so long, it would be nice to just have one that represented us. But I'm probably just going through a ring stage right now.. last time I was going through a necklace stage. Blah. Also, we're both getting really busy now and it's hard for us to spend time together. He doesn't think it's a big deal, but I do.. only because I miss him. Buttttttt, he does know how to make up for things! Late night dinners and chocolate souffles! I love you! And sorry for being emo last night =)

Ok I think that's it for now. I've also been using dial up for the past week because sbcyahoo didn't tell us it was time for us to renew our contract, so they disconnected our dsl and when we renewed it, they made a processing mistake, so now we have to wait until the end of this week again. Sucks a lot because I need fast connection in order to do a lot of my hw that's due this week.

2nd [boring] post of SEPTEMBER!

Thursday, September 8, 2005 - Happy 20th Birthday Jeremy!
I went to Leanna's first volleyball game ever at ND with my mom, but unfortunately, they lost. Then we went back home and counted down the hours to the season premiere of "The OC"!!!!! Jonathan came over too but played the piano most of the time.

Friday, September 9, 2005
This was JULE and JONATHAN day because it was his only day off! So the plan was to eat lunch then watch a movie or whatever, but we lagged a little here at home because he was playing with the cats and started playing the piano. But at least he can play "Ordinary People" now. Then we made a quick detour to his house so he could change, but the cable guy was there, so we had to wait a little longer until the cable guy was done doing whatever he had to do. FINALLY, we arrived at Pasta P to grab some lunch, and then Jonathan's coworkers informed him that he had a meeting, so I waited in the car impatiently until the meeting was over. I was hella BMing already, so he just took me to the Pasta P in Santana Row for lunch/almost dinner. We were hella full and just went back to my house. We slept for about 2 hours, then went clubbing with Neiman and Villiard at The Forum in Sunnyvale. That "Adobo" thing for SJSU was going on, so lots of SJSU people. We met up with Brian and his friend in the parking lot. Danced the night away, grabbed some Wendy's that tasted sooooo goood, and went to bed!

Saturday, September 10, 2005
I went with my mom to Auntie Venie's house for the last day of the Novena and I ended up falling asleep on the couch. I ate, hung out with the cousins, then went with Jonathan to Jay's house to watch the Pacquiao fight but missed it and didn't even watching it because Jay told us that he won. Then we played some poker and the last two left were me and Jonathan. Jonathan won, but I let him. Then we went home and waited for my mom and sister to come home, but my sister told me that they were gonna sleep there, so I had Jonathan drop me back off at Auntie Venie's and I went to sleep right away on the uncomfortable couch/floor.

Sunday, September 11, 2005 - Happy Birthday Auntie Myrna!
When we woke up, we went back home and I stayed home. Then Jonathan and I went to church and they wouldn't let me do the offering because I was wearing sandals. Hello? Jesus wore sandals if no shoes at all!

Monday, September 12, 2005
I didn't want to be bored all day long, so Chris picked me up and we spent the entire day with Lisa. We got some viet sandwiches and chilled at her house. Jonathan came over and we chiled some more. Then Jonathan and I went back to my house and hung out some more.

Tuesday, September 13, 2005
Took the bf to school, cleaned the house a little, picked him up and headed straight to Jay's. Then we headed to SF for the Giants' vs. Padres game. Giants' kicked butt! It was hella funny because when Fick was up for bat, Donald kept talking shit to him, and Fick ended up getting a homerun right after. haha. But we sat in the dugout right behind the catcher! Like we were first row, touching the nets! They were awesome seats. I was pooped by the time we got home so I just slept.

Wednesday September 14, 2005 - Happy 23rd Birthday Michael!
The bf came by, went to sjsu real quick, then back to my house. He started writing his paper, and I even did some readings for him! We took a break to eat dinner then he continued with his hw again. I ended up falling asleep while I was watching TV, and he woke me up when he was done so I could peer edit it. Then he went home to study for his exam/watch "back to the future"

Thursday, September 15, 2005 - Happy 20th Birthday Sheila!
I dropped the bf off at school, cleaned my room, picked the bf up, chilled at home for a bit, then headed to Cheesecake for Sheila's birthday dinner. It was fun again seeing everyone. Too bad we had to wait 2 hours until we got our table! After some fun dining with friends, the bf and I went to Villiard's house and played some poker. He was actually eliminated before me. I got third place. Then we were tired and left.

Friday, September 16, 2005
I did a lot of nothing again all day long, and Jonathan didn't have work and came over! Then we picked up Leanna at school, bought some pizza, and uploaded the OC episode I missed from the previous night from my sister. I watched some of it at home, in the car on the way to David's house, and finished it on the way to Bay Meadows. Jonathan ended up winning in 2 out of the 5 races he bet, but he lost more than he won, also especially since he spent lots of money on beer/food. We made a detour to Lisa's house on the way home to spend her last night here in San Jose with her. We ate some ice cream, chit chatted, then said our goodbyes. She started tearing up when she was hugging us goodbye, but I told her to suck it up! I probably would have started crying too if we were there longer. I'll miss you Lisa, but I'm only 7 digits away, so call me anytime! I love you!

Saturday, September 17, 2005
My mom and my sister were gone all day long for my sister's vball tourney, then Jonathan came over. We chilled for a bit at home, went to Office Depot to get my school supplies, grabbed dinner at La Victoria, went back to my house again, then went to Jessica and Melanie's birthday party and drank a little and got a little tipsy.

Sunday, September 18, 2005
I did nothing all day long again! Well actually, I ate breakfast with my mom and sister, watched some on demand, showered, watched tv, and hung out with the bf. He took me to get a viet sandwich, then went back to my house until it was time to pick up my sis from church. After he went home, I got rid of a lot of the clutter on the walls in my room, arranged the stuffed animals I haven't seen in about a year, and just finished cleaning my room. I think I'm gonna go to bed soon... after I grab a midnight snack.

It's my half birthday! and I start school tuesday! klkjaflkadfkasfk

it's wednesday!

Monday, August 29, 2005
The bf came over when work was over, and then we headed to Eastridge to pay my Macy's bill and I turned in some apps. Eastridge is lookin pretty nice now, but too bad the jobs over there don't pay well. I got some call backs, but I didn't bother calling them back because I wasn't really interested anymore. After, we headed to San Francisco to Jo's apartment so Jonathan could fix the wireless internet. It took him about 10 minutes, but we hung around for a while. Then I told Jonathan that I was eligible to FINALLY get an upgrade for my cell phone, so we went to Stonestown and got my new cell phone! I can't believe it's already been 2 years. The reason why I switched to Verizon was because that was the only service I could get at my dorm... how time flies. Jonathan played with my phone more than me and we went to my house for a little bit where he played with it some more.

Tuesday, August 30, 2005
Jonathan came over, dropped him off at school, went back home and watched tv until it was time to pick him up. Then we went to the verizon store because Jonathan found an excuse to get a new phone. The same phone, but a new one without any scratches. he was still jealous of my cool phone. Dangit, I forgot what else we did, oh well.

Wednesday, August 31, 2005
He finally had a free day for me. We went to VF, applied at more stores, walked around, then went to Sears for Jonathan to rent a tux. While at the tux place, I got 3 phone calls, and scheduled interviews for two of them! Ok, I forgot what else we did again.

Thursday, September 1, 2005
Jonathan came over, dropped him off at school, went home and watched tv, picked him up, headed straight to VF, interview with Victoria's Secret and job offer from Forever. I'm still leaning towardrs VS more though... more incentives. Saw Jenn, then left the mall. We went to Jonathan's for a bit, took phone survey for VS that I messed up on, but was able to re-take it. I forgot what else we did again, but we most likely just hung out at home.

Friday, September 2, 2005 Rest In Peace Grandma Ipa
My mom woke me up early and told me that Grandpa Ipa passed away at 4am, I was still a little drowsy so I fell back asleep. When I woke up, I realized what my mom said to me that morning. When Jonathan came home from work, I told him, and that's when it hit me and I couldn't stop crying. I was supposed to go with him to Des' wedding rehearsal, but there was no room for me in the car. I hate it when his ass does that to me! I cried even more because my mom was gone running errands with my aunts for the funeral, my sister was at school, so I was basically home alone. Eventually, my mom picked me up and we went to Auntie Venie's where most of the family was. We prayed the rosary, and just hung out. It was also Leanna's first ND Mixer, so my cousins and I went to pick her up. It was kinda fun. At around 12, Jonathan was FINALLY available. It totally sucked because I really needed him, but he was too busy for me. It turned out that he had to go back to the hotel because Des needed him to drop something off, so he decided that he was gonna just stay the night because it would've been pointless to drive back in the morning for the wedding, so when he picked me up, we went back to my house, packed my stuff in a hurry, then headed over to the hotel near SFO. I was already exhausted because it was 1am when we arrived, but I was hungry, so Donald ordered pizza for me, him, and Jonathan. Crazy huh? They delivered pizza at like 2am! Joanne and Bea were already passed out, and I was falling asleep with Des, the bride! and Jonathan and Donald slept on the floor.

Saturday, September 3, 2005 Congrats Des and Mark!
We all woke up bright and early, but kept going back to sleep because the wedding didn't start until 3pm. But Jonathan and I got ready early anyway, and I headed over to the suite and helped Des and the other girls get ready. Time flew by really quickly. Before we knew it, it was already 230pm! Jonathan, Donald, and I rode in the limo with Des and the other bridesmaids to the church. I cried like a baby, especially during their vows. Oh man. Then it was time for the reception! It seemed like an eternity but we finally got to eat and my sirloin steak tasted so good! Our server gave our table a bottle of wine and served us all champagne for the toast, but the only one legal to drink was Jonathan.. haha. But it was cool anyway. The bf got a little drunk off of all the merlot her drank, then he mixed it with apple cider and it tasted hella good! Then we watched Des and Mark's first dance, father/daughter and mother/son dance, money dance, bouquet and garter toss, etc. I didn't catch the bouquet, and Jonathan was NOT EVEN THERE DURING the garter toss!!! He was outside SMOKING! I got mad, so I told his mom... hahah. But he said sorry, and he told me not to worry because I was gonna catch a bouquet "really really soon" accroding to him.. sooo whatever he meant by that, it made me not upset anymore. We all danced the whole night... lots of fun.. helped clean up after, went straight home, and arrived around 1 or 2am. I was pooped so I slept my ass off.

Sunday, September 4, 2005
Leanna and I stayed home like bums while my mom was out running errands and while Jonathan was at work. Jonathan came over for a bit, then my mom dropped off Ashley and Charlie, and all of us plus Leanna went to eat lunch at Costco.. very filling! Then to Oak Hill for Grandma's viewing. I don't know why some people were scared to see her, it just looks like she's sleeping. She's smiling too, so she passed away peacefully. Anyway, we prayed the rosary, dropped the cousins and sister at auntie Venie's, back to my house to pick stuff up, then back to Auntie Venie's again. Jonathan played poker with some of my cousins while I was inside with more cousins. Then we headed home.

Monday, September 5, 2005
Stupid Jonathan didn't have work until night time, but he still didn't find the time to see me before he went to work!!! BLAH YOU SUCKHEAD! Anyway, I forgot what we did during the day, but we went to Oak Hill for the Rosary, went to McDonald's with Leanna real quick, then back to Oak Hill. I was able to see more family, and that's when it really hit me that Grandma was gone. It made me sad that my Papa didn't get to see his sister, but at least Grandma is reunited with Grandpa Fidel now. I guess when love is that strong, it's hard to live without each other. Right after, we went to Auntie Venie's again, hung out with the fam, and went back home.

Tuesday, September 6, 2005
Woke up really early, auntie Hazel came over, grabbed a quick breakfast at McDonald's, then headed to Oak Hill for the very last viewing before they closed the casket, went to MHT for the mass, back to Oak Hill for the burial, then to Sam Kee for the reception. We continued at auntie Venie's house, hung with the fam some more, fought over sleeping places on the couches, then left with Leanna and Jonathan. We made a quick stop to Office Depot, the bank, then went home and rested. Jonathan and I watched the Giants game vs. the Dodgers... pretty good. Leanna and I went to pick my mom back up at auntie Venie's, then rested at home.

Wednesday, September 7, 2005
Today I slept in, then ran some errands with my mom. I had my interview with BofA near my house... FINALLY and got hired on the spot. She didn't even interview me, she just told me she'd call me as soon as she found out when my training started, so yay! Hopefully I start before school starts so I don't have to miss class for training. Then went back home, watched some tv, Jonathan came over, hung out for a bit, then picked up Leanna from practice and headed to Auntie Venie's where we were for the rest of the night.

phew... and there's my update! I can't believe it's already September... school is starting soon!
