Lazy/Busy Days of Summer

The summer so far has been a strange mix of days. It seems as if my days are either filled with continuous events or that they're filled with continuous boredom.

For example, yesterday was one of those days that was completely filled with things to do. From doing 4 hours of tabling with Helena at a car show with no people to table to, to shopping for a fathers day gift with Helena and seeing her dad while shopping, to eating dinner for Sara's B-Day and stealing some special spoons, and finally going to Nancy's surprise party at Cloverleaf bowl.

Yet today, today is turning out to be one of those days where I just spend the whole day in front of the TV and the computer doing absolutely nothing productive at all. Even though today is Fathers day, me and my dad never usually do anything, and even at the time I'm writing this blog, he's sleeping on the couch. So yeah fun day this is turning out to be.

Tomorrows going to hopefully be one of those productive days. I'm hoping to get my badminton racket restrung and get my I-pod fixed, hence getting some of the stuff on my summer checklist done. So yeahhhh

An Interesting Day

So today, I had an interesting day. One would probably think that all my days are pretty interesting, but trust me I have my boring ones, such as the day I never spoke. But today was an interesting one. One that was more interesting than the others. From almost running over a mattress on the freeway, to buying some bright and flashy girls jeans, and even getting attacked by an old lady; you add all those things together and all you get is interesting.

Today started off as a pretty normal day but I knew it would turn interesting once I got onto the freeway to Hayward this morning. As soon as I merged onto the freeway, I noticed myself coming upon something rather large in the road. I quickly swerved my car into another lane, and thankfully there wasn't another car beside me. I stared in wonder as I raced by a mattress in the middle of the road. The only explanation I have for this is that it probably fell off someones car, because I'm pretty sure people don't take naps in the middle of the freeway.

Things got a little mundane for awhile afterwards though. I went to Acme today to go put some APO letters on my track jacket, but learned that the thick stitching might make it difficult to put letters on. Somewhat disappointing but I'm still going to try and get letters on it. Then I went and drove up the gas guzzling hill to go turn in my parking permit. My old RA was there though so I was like cooooool and I just handed it back to them. Hopefully there won't be any consequences to me turning that in late.

After that though, I journeyed over to the Hayward courthouse to go deal with my driving ticket for that illegal U-turn I busted like two months ago. When I got into the court, there was a huge line for the driving tickets, and I would have been pretty bored if not for me texting all my friends. It made me wonder how it was for people to wait in lines before cell phones were invented. Must have been the epitome of boredom. I wonder if, 30 years from now people are going to be thinking back, "Man it must have been boring for people to only have text messaging". But yeah finally my time arrived to go see the clerk and see what was up with my driving ticket. The lady was really really cool though when I was talking to her. She kept on telling me that she hated the cops too. She eventually scolded me a bit because my driving ticket was satined from water.That got me thinking, "I wonder how my ticket got wet? Its not like the inside of my car is commonly wet." But a second after that thought, I realized that I have water guns inside my car and that I had a pretty drastic water fight with Shirley, Denise, and Matt awhile back so yeahhhhh thats how it got wet. The lady said that my driving ticket was never filed in the system though so that got me pretty confused, because I got the driving ticket a long time ago so I would have though that the police officer would have filed my ticket by now. This basically means that I have to continue to call up the courts just in case the officer decides to eventually file the ticket. Just more hassle for me I guess.

This little trip got very interesting the second I walked out of the court room. Right when I turned the corner to walk to my car, me and this little old hispanic lady startled each other Now if you know me, I'm a pretty jumpy person. So jumpy that Hazina is training me to me less jumpy (two for flinching!). So naturally, when me and this old lady startled each other, I got really startled, and I guess I jumped in a scary manner, because the old lady started screaming at me "GO AWAY DRUG DEALER!!! CRIMINALLL!!". Then she swung her purse out at me! I was like OH MY GOD im getting attacked by an old lady! I said I was sorry and I ran away! I didn't know what else to do so I just ran to my car and got out of there because I didn't want a felony assault charge for attacking an old lady. Cause if I stuck around, then who would the cops believe, me or an old lady.

So after that, I was going to go home and go sleep becuase I was super tired, but after some encouraging from a texting friend, I decided to go to New Park Mall to go look for a job. That turned out pretty successfull though because I got applications from Pac Sun and Anchor Blue and Hot Topic. Hot Topic was pretty cool though, because the jeans ive been meaning to buy from there finally went on sale!! Thing is, I never knew they were girls jeans until today when I bought them so yeah. Yay for buying bright red and dark purple size 5 girls jeans!

Then came the drive home which was memorable because I got to use my bluetooth for the first time! I called up jessica with it and it was pretty amazing to be able to talk on the phone with someone and have it not be completely illegal. But yeah it was worth it driving through hella traffic because Rock Band was waiting at Jessicas house! I really love playing Rock Band because the drums are super fun to play.

The rest of the day was pretty normal though. We went to Pac East mall and ate some Pho and I felt unfufilled afterwards. The Pho in Hayward makes the Pho in Pac East seem like shit because of the huge taste and size difference. After that, we went to Emeryville to go watch Up. It was pretty cool seeing it a second time because I got to catch all the things I missed out on the first time. Like for example, theres a picture of the younger Ellie in Adventure book of her holding up a pidgeon, and on the picture in faded print it says "This is a pidgeon we found. His name is Herbert!". I was just like aww thats cute haha. I want a pet pidgeon now. Especially one that i can take care of and make it look pretty, so that people won't see it as just a rat with wings.

Well here I am at home right now. I'm about to go to sleep right when I finish this blog. Which is probably going to be very soon. Right now I'm staring at a sleeping Shirley. She was supposed to stay awake with me until I finished my blog but nooooooo she just had to fall asleep on me haha. Oh wait she just woke up haha. Now shes asking if she fell asleep. Awwwwww. Haha shirley you're gonna read this later and be like wtfffffffffff sean. Ok whatevers. Yay my blog is done. Goodnight :D

Missing You

So the school year has finally come to an end, and I can truthfully say that this has been one of the most eventful years that I've ever lived. Since I don't really have much to do in the summer other than work and work on some of my personal summer goals, and also since I don't think i'll be hanging out with my old friends this summer, I'm going to miss a lot of things from this school year.

AphiO - Yeahhhh you guys probably knew this one was coming. I'm going to miss all of the things that we've done this year, from service projects like Uhuru and messing with pie dough with Massiel, Annie, and Nancy, and fellowships like all the random sports nights and playing badminton with Cath and having Kevin break my strings. I'll also miss all the random things we'd do, like heading out to Nations or In-n-Out after meetings and kicking it at the bookstore doing people watching. I can't wait for this summer to end so I can spend some more time doing whatever we do in AphiO.

My IC Friends - I really can't wait till next year to see all you guys again. You were all super awesome to meet and I really can't wait till next year so that I can go visit you guys again. My whole goal of being in AphiO is to meet IC brothers, because I believe that even though we are all seperated into different chapters, we're all brothers and we all need to coexist for the organization to succeed.

Car Rides - Even though driving is my biggest pet peeve, I enjoyed a lot of the times that me and my friends spent in my car. Accidentally driving to Oakland with Massiel and Anne, founding the Party Fouls with Anne, Massiel, Casey and Jon Scott, and even having Anne fall asleep on practically every car ride with me (and sometimes in mid-conversation too) have all been times that I'll never forget. One of the few times i didn't drive and had a great time was after Rebuilding Together Oakland when I had to drive with Helena. I still need to upload the video of that car ride because it was too dramatic to even describe. So many near death experiences and Helena's random noises and Oliver doing what he normally does in cars. Even though I hate driving, I enjoy riding with people that tend to make driving interesting.

Hangouts in Santa Cruz - Santa Cruz really turned out to be the place to be this year. It was hella fun hanging out with Monica, Andy, and Steph down there in SC. I liked how there was never a dull moment hanging out with them. Also, hanging out with AphiO in UCSC was super fun because of their new chapter and my little sib down there! I hope that they become an official chapter soon!

Rampaging the School - A lot of the destruction around the school was caused by us. I hope nobody reads this and gets us in trouble for it but yeah it was super fun causing some havoc on campus. Putting traffic cones in random places, like the tops of buildings, and making a road block in the middle of campus that lasted for a few days are just a few of the things that we did. Also, stealing traffic cones and using them to save parking spots and stealing signs just for the hell of it was super fun. Yeah destruction! Yeah first steps to ruling the world!!!

Late Night Walmart - Walmart turned out to be one of the most unlikely hangout spots this year, and all the funnest times seemed to come in the middle of the night. It became normal for us to head to Walmart in the dead of night and just have an adventure. From a tired deliriousness eating at McDonalds there and reading the strange sayings on the cups "MMMMM to AHHHHH is MMMMAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!" and also Richanne's Triforce (Matt you better remember that), to walking around the aisles with Matt squirting lotion, hair gel, and whatever else that caused a mess (and almost hitting ghetto looking people with pillows), and getting almost kicked out for playing catch with a baseball in the middle of an aisle. Everytime we'd go to Walmart, we'd always end up having an unforgettable time.

Trips to San Jose - We'd usually travel down to San Jose for a visit to Gamme Beta, and those visits are always fun, but we'd go down there for plenty of other reasons also. Kahoo Ramen is steadily turning into one of my favorite restaurants because of the awesome tasting ramen, the great service, JaM music playing in the background, and the stealable pens. Also, hanging out at Kevin Lowe's house till the late night and playing Buzz TV and Rockband (Team Awesome and Team China!) was super funnnnnnn.

Sleeping at Sara's - So for the last few months of school, I basically abandoned my own dorm and slept around. That sounds terrible but for the most part, I spent my nights at Sara's dorm. Late night movies, comfortable air mattresses, Team 3's nighttime antics "Sean you look hungry"//"Where's Matt?"//"Grrrrrrrrraaaawwwwwrrrr", and the mini parties all made Sara's place the best place to be at night. I can't thank her enough for letting me live at her place for the past few months.

The People that won't be Coming Back - Massiel, you were probably the most cheerful and enthusiastic person I knew at school. I'll always remember you going "YEAH!" or "YAY!!!" after every good thing and for being one of the ones I went to for help when we were pledging together in WK. Jon Scott, I'll remember you for having one of the best and most interesting personalities out of all the people I've met in the world. I think you have a lot of great ideas about everything and yeah, to be honest I started looking up to you near the end of the year. Kelly, you were superrrr cool and I wish I had gotten to know you better. We never finished our "interview" hahaha. Hopefully one of these days we will!

Friends - Oh man you guys have all turned into hella good friends. I really shouldn't even have to write down why I'll miss these guys. I feel like I got taught sometime from every single person I met this year. Like, I learned how to do my laundry cause of Hazina, I learned how to cook cause of Sara and Conde, I learned how to always have an exit cause of Justin; the list goes on and on. Just so many of you had a direct impact on my life so yeah, thanks alot :]

Hazina - Aww Best friend forever and ever and ever! I'm gonna miss your randomness and the ability to make me laugh. You were one of those people that I could never be sad around and thats one thing that I'll miss this summer and that I'll look forward to next year!

Matt - I don't really care if people are gonna call us brokeback for this, but ima miss you this summer! I think you've made me change my vocabulary so much this year. You were hella cool as my Co for Fellowship this year and I don't think I could have done it without you. I know ima probably see you a lot this summer but whatevers ima still miss hangning out with you and making really random jokes about really random things.

Regina - Ahhhhhhh you were super cool this school year. I don't think a day went by without me and you ending up laughing hysterically at some really stupid thing. You turned into the one that I talked to the most about my issues and I'm gonna miss that this summer cause you'll be in GUAM!! But yeah I'm looking forward to next year Co :D

Shirley - I know you told me not to make one for you, but I am. So hah. And thats all you get. You know why you're special =] <=== look its your smiley face haha

So yeah, the last year was really fun and as you can probably tell, ima miss it a lot. So heres to the summer and heres to making even more things that I'll miss next summer haha.
