haha. everyone in their blogs all talk about how they haven't blogged in a long time. i guess i'm just going to have to join this cool crowd by starting off with my "i haven't blogged in so long!" it's weird though b/c i was so consistent while i was in school. however, once summer hits and now that i have nothing better to do, ironically i become very on and off with my online journal. anyways, time to reflect...

on thursday, chang and i went to this burrito place on mission. i never knew there were so many mexican restaurants on that street! i believe there were about three on the same block we decided to check out! so we tried this new place and it was really good. i think i've fallen in love with burritos. last year, it was pho. this year, burritos are definitely the way to go! of course there is a good reason why i no longer eat pho. all i can say is, i dare you to finish an x-large bowl at the millbrae pho place. i dare you.

on friday, i went to Great America with ratface. it wasn't the most exciting time but it was fun with decency. it was cool though cause the weather was pretty nice and there weren't too many people at the park that day. matt seriously got over his fear of rollercoasters this time. in 10th grade, he was this weak sauce crap that couldn't ride crap! and after friday, he became a man.

matt: i wanna ride Vortex.
me: dude, i'm telling you that ride's so gay!
(after the ride).
matt: ahahahahahahah. that was so weak!
me: yeah, i told you! ahahahahahaha.
matt: ahahahahahah.

yeap, matt was so disappointed he could only laugh. and i could only join him.

dude, have you guys ever ridden Top Gun in the way front? it is soooooo much better than the other seats. we were so lucky cause there was seriously like no line! we rode that crap like 6 times! every time was so much fun!

me: alrite matt. this is the LAST time ok?
matt: alrite.
(after the ride).
me: dude, the line is so short! let's go to the front.
matt: alrite.
(after the ride).
me: dude matt, we have to ride that crap just ONE more time!
matt: haha. yeah, i know!

oh, and if you guys go to Great America, you guys HAVE to ride Delirium! that crap looks like garbage but it's sooooo fun! that ride is now officially better than Invertigo, slowly coming right behind Top Gun. the best way to describe Delirium is that it's like a giant retarded swing. and it also has this surprising twist in the middle of it.

matt: yeah dude, you think it's over and then all of a sudden you're like OH SH*T!
me: ahahahahaahahaha. i know!

i finally learned how to give mall discounts or add .30 to the smoothies! Mrs. Field's isn't as bad as it seems. all you do is put cookies into small bags or make smoothies. it's pretty simple...just like any other food related store. now, this doesn't mean that i'm proud that i work there. it's still really embarrassing when i have to tell people where i work. anyways, it's all good. "would you like anything to drink with that?"

i had my senior banquet last night. it was nothing like i thought it would be, which has its pros and cons. rather than expressing my disappointment, i'd like to talk about my appreciation for the efforts. i think it's pretty evident that the students worked REALLY hard and were stressed out beyond words. it's ok, i've been there. i know how hard it could get. bitterness. dissatisfaction. apathy. chaos. yeap, definitely been there before. i know the skit people worked so much harder than necessary. i know the food thing didn't run too smoothly due to disorganization. and of course, speech preparation was very LAST minute. despite all these unfortunate happenings, i appreciated the whole banquet. i liked seeing everyone work so hard. i liked seeing unfamiliar faces getting involved. i liked the fact that everyone was sharing a common event together. thank you everybody. you guys are awesome and "don't be shady." hehe.

and the movie trek continues. today, i saw Scent of a Woman starring my beloved Al Pacino. this was one of those rare occasions where he actually doesn't play an unhappy gangster. gosh, this movie REALLY caused me to appreciate his acting abilities. who would've thought that this man could go from gangster to lonely blind man? anyways, i really enjoyed this one. $2.15 well spent.
