Breaks always seem to fly so swiftly away

Hey all, time for a real blog post rather than something random. I'm not really in that great of a mood right now, and you'll probably find out the reason later on in the post, but I'll try to make this as entertaining as possible.

I don't really know where to begin with this blog. I guess I'll just start from my recent trip to Santa Cruz and then just go from there. So yeah, I went to Santa Cruz again this weekend. Its starting to turn into such a common thing for me to go there that its not anything special anymore, although whenever I go there I always seem to have some of the best times of my life. I feel really bad though cause I kinda flaked out on some of the UCSC AphiO people there, cause I contacted a few of them beforehand, but I didn't contact them at all when I got there. Sorry guys but I was a bit more busy/lazy than I thought I would be, but next time I'll hopefully see you guys for sure.

I really don't remember what I did down there in Santa Cruz. I know I slept alot at times and I slept very little at times, and I know I ate alot also. It sounds boring and just like a typical day, but the people down there just make the normal things in life that much better. It makes me wish that I had gone to that school instead of my own, but then again my current school has shaped me into who I am right now.

I do remember one thing aboout going down to Santa Cruz though, and thats being dragged to the Twilight DVD midnight release party by Monica. I was actually supposed to name this blog "The worst 30 minutes of my life" because of that whole experience, but I won't be that mean. The party was a lot smaller than I thought it would be, but there were still some crazy fans that showed up. I actually got to watch the movie that night also, and I found it to be hilarious. Alot of the scenes in the movie just made me crack up. To be a bit serious though. the movie could have been alot better, because I know that if I hadn't read the book beforehand, then I would have been really lost during the movie.

Well I left Santa Cruz on Saturday, and I enjoyed the 2 hour drive back up to San Pablo. I usually hate driving, but that 2 hour drive was really nice, because it gave me time to think about who I want to be. The rest of the day was pretty nice though; I just chilled at my house and rested my old self. I remember getting home and having my parents ask me to clean the backyard, and also having them tell me that they didn't have any food cooked because they didn't think I was going to come home that early. Yay for coming back home haha.

Sunday was the day that I planned out as a little spring break get together for some of the people back here. T'was the day we were gonna head down to San Jose and go to the Asian American Film Festival down there. I picked up Monica at bart at around 3, proceeded to show her my not-so-ghetto house and neighborhood, and then we drove to Jessicas house to play some Rock Band. We gathered up the whole group at around 6 and headed over to Hayward to go eat at one of my favorite restaurants over there, Red Chili. Alex joined us for dinner which was pretty cool cause its always pretty rare to see him anywhere. Aft dinner we drove to San Jose to watch the movie, but by the time we got there, we were already 20 minutes late, so we went to another theater and watched a movie called Tokyo!, which was 3 short films all revolving around the city of Tokyo. It was a really good film and I suggest everyone to go check it out.

Today also started off as a pretty good day. I got to spend a little extra time in bed today and I'm finally starting to feel that I'm getting over this little sickness thats been bothering me for the past few days. I took Oliver on a few errands today and after that I ended up heading to Berkeley to go hang out with some AphiO peoples. We just walked around a few of the stores over on Telegraph, but then I got tired and I decided to go back home early. As I was walking back to my car, I walked by Elaines boba shop and lo and behold, she was actually there. I had a nice little conversation with her, but I had to go cause my car was parked in one of those timed spots and I didn't want to risk getting my second ticket from Berkeley. But yeah then the total shit part of today happened. As I was driving home today, this bus pulled up next to me as I was stopped at a red light. I didn't think much of it until I noticed that the bus was one of those double sized ones and it was making a turn. So the bus began to make its turn, and all I could do is just sit there in my car watching as the edge of the bus got closer and closer to my car until the inevitable happened. Now the whole side of my car is scraped up and dented because of a bus drivers incompetent driving. Its all part of life though, so I can be as pissed off about it as much as I want to be, but its not gonna change the fact that it happened so whatever.

I don't know whats been going on this past month. Its like my life is on a roller coaster; everytime I have a really good time somewhere, something always happens that brings me back down. I just hope that this roller coaster ends up on a straightaway when I'm up at the top.
