My Voice Is Kaputz

Side Note: Okay please don't say you can't tell at all because I think it might have gotten a little better because listening to it I don't sound as bad as I did this morning, but my voice is DEFINITELY raspy. I feel it in my throat! haha It is absolutely horrible in the morning, I can barely get any words out at first because my throat decides to completely close up or something as a terrible joke that my body likes to play on me.

Side Note2: Thinking about it.....it might've actually helped more if coming back to my apt, I had just gone to bed and gotten more sleep rather than recording that. If you know me, you'd know i'm not the best at taking care of my health.

Side Note3: Edge Senior banquet 2010 was awesome! Each class from the Edge is so talented and amazing, definitely felt the love and hard work. I think my favorite parts were all the videos.

Air Out Your Dirty Laundry

3 Reasons Why This Pertains To My Life At The Moment

1. I think I just accidentally spent my whole 1st paycheck on Victoria Secret's Semi annual sale online. Yay for more underwear caught in small tornadoes!

2. I wish our apt had an indoor washer/dryer; strangers near my laundry is kind of an unsettling feeling.

3. I am getting near the desperate need of doing my laundry, like an unattractive guy with no date the day before prom kind of desperate. I've just been so busy lately there hasn't been much time to run errands. :( le sigh

Substantials posts have yet to come, perhaps i'm just getting all my thoughts sorted at for now. Until then, here are the light hearted posts. :)

Sungod

So last Friday I decided last minute and spontaneously joined my friends and go to Sungod at UCSD. I was able to use a friend's ID to get a ticket and saved myself $40. Sungod is an all day/night event where majority of the students basically gets drunk and/or high during the day and chill. Freakin felt like I was hot boxing in the outdoor tent. Ridiculous. -__- (Side note: I've never smoked pot and don't ever plan to). Not exactly my thing, but I decided to just go since it was my last year and what's a college experience without a Sungod one? Two words. Superrrrrrrrr fun. There were obstacle courses (where I think I got a bruise), a performance tent, a dance tent, bomb ass huge $8 italian sausages and performances by Michelle Branch, Thrice, B.O.B, Relient K and Drake. It was all pretty awesome and I got to spend a lot of time with friends. :)

This is Lily on her drunk ass trying to climb to the 2nd floor to find a bathroom because she really needed to pee. And this is me being a good friend just letting her and taking a picture because I knew she wouldn't get anywhere. Two girls working there shouted at her to get down. haha What a nub.

Going to get Mexican for lunch to coat the stomach for a little daytime drinking.

Awww, aren't we a cute bunch? :)

I'm really glad I decided to go to Sungod. it was super chill and I got to meet up with a lot of people that i've been wanting to see for awhile. All in all, a good weekend spent. But my body is superrrrrrrr sleep raped; I really need that day where I get to sleep in so much that you might confuse for me in a coma.

And You Are......?

Recently a guy came into my work and asked "Is your name by chance, Tiffany?" I met him like 3 weeks ago and was surprised he remembered my name. I recognized him but I definitely didn't remember his name, not even the first letter. Strategically avoiding addressing him by name, I continued on with some small talk then made an excuse to leave rather than ask him for his name again because I felt too guilty. I came back home and mentioned to Lillian that I found it amazing when people are able to recall names so well. I met him once like 3 weeks ago and he remembered; I would never be able to do that. Sadly she didn't share my amazement and replied "He's good at remembering names and you're horrible at it." The glass shatters.

Damn, she's got me to a T on that one. I used to call one of my roommates old boyfriends Barnyard instead of Brienyard. Another time I asked my other roommate why her mom named her brother Abraham only to be answered that his name was Lincoln. In general, I forget a lot of names the moment I meet them. Sometimes when they introduce them to me, their names don't even reach my ears. It's like i'm just waiting for them to finish their introductions so I can introduce myself rather than hearing them say their names. Aren't introductions just to be polite? Just like some economic courses i've taken, you learn it to just learn it but in real life it's rarely applicable. Most of the time I doubt i'll ever have to use their names again so why even bother remembering it? And it goes both ways cause I don't expect them to remember mine-except sometimes I do see them again and they do remember my name, then a little FML kicks in.

Honestly though? The truth is subconsciously I probably just don't care enough to remember their names. In a way, I'm a bitch about it. Like the guy who came into my work? Although I did feel too bad to ask for his name again, I probably didn't ask because I didn't find it worth the effort since I figured I wouldn't see him again (Epic fail because he came in again the next day). I didn't see the significance in even trying to memorize it. He is one among thousands of people that lives will cross mine for a brief moment. What's the point in remembering all their names? But you know what? It's a biznatch move to make. Just how cocky/stuck up is it of me to think that someone isn't important enough to remember their name?

As part of me growing up and improving myself, i'm going to make some changes starting with this one. I am going to remember everyone's name I meet. So far i've been trying to really listen when they introduce themselves and repeat their names in my head. When I leave, I try to say "It was nice meeting you ______." I remember when I was a freshman in college and feeling special when people remembered my name, especially people older than me. I was just some little insignificant freshman but they knew my name. Even to this day, when people I don't expect to remember my name do, it's huge surprise to me. Remembering someone's name is a great quality to have. It shows care, it's warm and humbling in a way. It's more personal than an "ay girl" or "sup boy." It shows you care and the person is special enough for you to remember who they are. And everyone is special enough for me to remember their name. It's always nice to be remembered. :)

Side note: I like the way people find different ways to call my name or just the way they say my name. It's kind of sweet.

P.S. You get two high fives and a booty bump if you understood my blog title reference.

Birthday Weekend

Thanks to everyone who spent time with me this 22nd birthday (including all those who skipped classes for me haha). It was a splendid 22nd and i'm thankful for you all! Anyways, i'm kind of lazy so here are some pictures to sum it up with some words.

One of the things I really wanted to do was go to the shooting range for my 22nd, kind of weird I know. I was super gung ho about it (harhar) though while Jess and Lily were super nervous. haha We had a lot of fun though.

This is Lily, Jess & I with our instructor Richard. haha He was like a cute grandpa. He scolded at me a bit for peeking and stuff but I know he liked me because i'd whine at his scolding and then he'd smile at me then tell me to go shoot another 5 rounds. haha Like how Lily is just chilling with that huge rifle? LOl

My roomies + honorary roomie surprised me by taking me to Geisha House in LA for dinner.

Then we went to Ecco (Eco-friendly) club where we met up with the guys and Gino hooked it up with bottle service and champagne. I got a free tote with a cute shirt but someone jacked it by the end of the night. :(

The next day I had a very yummy & cute dinner with Felicia, Emma, Joyce, Kat, Jess, Ji & Cedes at Zipangu. :) There's no group picture though. :( So here are pictures of my pretty friends.

Then we all ventured out to Opera in LA. Thanks everyone for coming out!

Had a lot of drinks that night.....haha it was nice because the bartender hooked it up with free grey goose shots. And at the end of the night, someone bought me a hot dog from the street and then I knocked out in the car. hahaha The next day I had to wake up early because I volunteered to do babysitting for my church and I actually did wake up. haha But I think I drank too much because I woke up a little buzzed. -______- But I sobered up so all is well! The babies were cute. :)

Anyways, to sum this post up I had a wonderful birthday filled with wonderful people. :)

TWENTY TWOng

It's offical. The 22 has hit. Although technically i'm still 21 till night because I was born at night. haha My lame excuse to holding on to my youth. I will post a more reflective post late but I just wanted to say thanks for all the surprise drop ins, texts, calls, gifts and everything so far! :)

Thanks for Feesh, Kat, Jessica Tang, Joyce & Ji for stopping by my place and surprising me with goodies. I love and thankful for each one of you!

Thanks to these gal pals too. :) My roomies (+ honorary roomie, chocoloco) came back at midnight with a cheesy cow balloon (because they know I like lame things -___-) and a whole case of beer for me. The bottle kind too, not the can, cause we classy ladies. hahaha We just played a couple games of beer pong (i'm a little buzzed, lost one game sighs). haha Just 4 girls playing beer pong on a random night, fasho! Sadly, this is not our first time doing so. hahaha We honestly are not your typical girl apartment, but I love it that we're different.

Anyways, I probably won't be posting anything for the next couple of days cause i'll be out celebrating but I couldn't bear not posting anything for such a long while. hahah Kinda gay, I know. But yup! God's placed some pretty great people in my life. Thanks everyone for the love! :)
