so far, i've taken simon to go watch Drumline, Hot Chick, and Empire. i feel kinda bad not taking him out much this break. i've only been shooting pool with jonna, chillin' with cj, and sleeping in like no other. man, just about every college student has been ranting on their blogs about how their sleeping schedule is messed up. but i assure you, i am by far the "worst" sleeper of you all. try going to bed at 3:00am and waking up at 3:00pm! gross. look at the indolence. the lack of productivity. the gaining of weight. and it's not like i'm catching up on my sleep from college either. i get plenty! i go to irvine, remember?

cj: man, high school is nothing. wait til you take college courses!
moe: i don't want to go to college!
me: don't even trip. college is cake! haha.
moe: screw it, i'm going to irvine. UC Irvine High School!
olivia: yeah, me too!

last night was the annual yg x-mas sleepover. i wasn't exactly sure what to expect that night. well, there's always the "grip" of food, the out-of-control games that B cannot control, and the nerve-racking gift exchange. man, the games were so much funner than i expected though. we first played the "blanket game." you basically have a blanket serving as a wall for both teams. you have a representative on each team and the other teammates try to distract the other representative. when the blanket comes down, the representatives have to call out the other representative's name first. lol.

chang: ahhhhhhh!!!
me: chang!

the second game was "circle of death." it's kinda like mafia except the 2 killers are the people who get the jokers. they kill people by winking at them and people try to guess who the killers are. if you guess wrong, you die.

me: (sarcastically) gosh, susan's so stupid!
simon: ahahhahahahahah.

and last but not least, the infamous Mafia! this was probably the funnest game b/c it's always fun accusing people and see the accused getting all pissed and defensive...

cj: i object!

but i think last night was a good indicator that i've grown up alot.

1. listening to middle schoolers talk about their meaningless drama. it's so cute! haha.
2. once again, almost all of the boys STILL play video games all night.
3. i actually had a conversation with frank that lasted for more than 10 min.!
4. almost every conversation i had involved the subject of college.
5. talking with high school students (in general) was sooooo boring!

what can i say? i've changed. i'm still changing. want an apology? i'm sorry. it's inevitable. BUT! i did realize a GOOD thing about last night. even though i felt a little out of place last night, i felt like i was having a much more genuine fun compared to the parties in the dorms. perhaps, it is b/c we have a reason for the fellowship that we have. not to "just have fun," but rather b/c we gather for a special reason. there's that unity that pagans cannot have. we all gather together as believers and God provides the happiness. yeah, i didn't have MUCH fun, but i nevertheless had FUN! you feel me?

loudest laugh of the night...

cj: my name is justin. i'm...
jonna: GAY!
everyone: ahahahahahahahahahah.
