Gymnastics practice.

First day back from break is never amazing. First period, I had to deal with a rude teacher. Second period, I got my crap essay back. Third period, I found out that I have rehersals at 7:30 in the morning on a school day that starts at 9. Fourth period, was alright. Fifth period, HISTORY TEST. Sixth period was pretty chill and I got to talk to my teacher a lot (: super super nice woman.

Gymnastics was fun today! GKru was so freaking funny, and I finally got to do a pull over on the bars (yeah, not a super exciting achievement-BUT I’M HAPPY). And finally I memorized most of the floor routine…most. LOL I’m workin’ on it. Then I went to Safeway with @ibriannguyen and it was all fun and dandy :D

I’m acknowleding my mistake but I’m just ignoring it. I don’t know how to give myself the willpower to fix it.

“Your first family is your blood family and you always will be true to that. That means something. But there’s another family and that’s the kind you go out and find. Maybe even by accident sometimes. And they’re as much blood as your first family. Maybe more so, because they don’t have to look out for you and they don’t have to love you. They choose to.” —Dennis Lehane, The Given Day (via quotewhore)

When I see guys having each other’s backs, it makes me smile.

Not that girls don’t have each other’s backs; but it’s a whole different thing.

I admire that quality in guys.

When guys have respect for girls.

joanneeelee:

It is so rare. So when a guy actually does have some respect for females, it is such a turn on. How they know how to talk to a lady and be kind and don’t always expect girls to be easy and slutty. When they expect more from you than your body, and actually know that there’s a lot more to offer and that some girls are actually smart and open minded. Guys who don’t only think of girls body parts and don’t only pay attention to sexual things,  It’s just makes them sexier.

and vice versa.

Rage post.

I bought a touch screen phone about a year a go, and I was perfectly fine with the phone up until I think like, two months a go. The phone started being super glitchy, and the touch screen started to be stupid and sometimes the whole phone would just freeze. But I dealt with it, but then this past week, I couldn’t text, call, or do anything besides picking up phone calls. The phone was complete shit. So I called up my local dealer, and they told me to call Samsung headquarters, which I did, and Samsung said something a long the lines of, “Oh, we aren’t sure what the problem is and the only Samsung headquarter place is in Texas”. So yeah, I totally want to send my phone all the way to Texas without a guarantee of it actually getting fixed. So I went to the local dealer shop where I bought my phone, and then the woman had the audacity to lecture me. “It isn’t our fault that your phone isn’t working, you just used the touch screen too much”, “The touch screen is really sensitive, maybe you over used it”, “We can’t provide you with a back up phone”.

Seriously woman? Obviously if the whole phone is a freaking touch screen then it was meant to be used. What, did I just buy the phone to admire? UH NO. I bought it to use. Like, yeah I understand that touch screens are sensitive, but I have never put my phone in my pocket, sat on it, or whatever. I dropped it a few times, but who doesn’t? And if I bought that phone from your store, then you better give me a fucking replacement. But no, I guess yelling at me is fine too, bitch.

She didn’t even speak to me like a costumer. Her tone was degrading and rude. I swear to God, if my Momma did not teach me any better I would have cussed your ass out. Shit.

Piano.

I haven’t played in so long; it felt so good. I played subconciously for three hours, letting my fingers dance on the keys. I don’t know why I felt like playing today, but I’m glad I did.

And I think I’m getting sick. Bleh.

Chad Hymas.

Today was a good day. I got inspired, I learned, I laughed, and I met some new people.

Oh my goodness, Chad Hymas came to our school today to talk to us, and if you guys don’t know who he is, what his story is, go check him out at www.ChadHymas.com

He made me laugh, he made me cry. He inspired me, and he taught be something very valuable. He’s an amazing guy.

After practice I went to the library with JPai and saw some people I knew. Blahblah, it was fun (:

But my stupid phone is being super glitchy and it’s pissing me off. Aughh.

You see, life itself is the biggest irony of all. Everything is controversial and nothing is concrete. I have my opinion just like you have your own. Each and every one of us are held accountable for the beliefs we wish to portray and hold dear. The scary part is, nothing is ever entirely right….

Basketball game/Senior Night.

I was super tired through out the day, and fell asleep during my fourth class, but hey, whatever. Gymnastics practice was fun today, we finally got to do/learn things and it was pretty exciting (:

The basketball game against Lynbrook was intense. My ears are still ringing from all the cheering. Both Cupertino and Lynbrook did hella well, but of course, TINO HAS IT IN THE BAG. Our seniors were are amazing, and so were all the other players! We were super united today, and our cheers were amazing.

YAY TINO!

Serenades were freakin’ bomb.

Serenade Practice.

Today was pretty mellow until I walked to Lenis’s house, and ended up being fifteen minutes early with NO ONE HOME. Her mom opened the door for me, so I awkwardly sat with the dog (Macy’s so frigging cuuute) waiting. HAHA BUT IT’S COOL. Then we chilled, practiced, costumed, blah, blah. Heehee, I’m excited for tomorrow, our group’s gonna be so fiiiineeee. TEAM AWESOMEEE/CHEATAH GO!

Happy Valentine’s Day. HAY HAY SINGLE-LINGS; UNITE!

Take me away to a place unknown. A new start; a new beginning. I want to breathe in that fresh crisp air, smell the salt from the ocean, and feel the wind whipping my hair. I want to climb up to the mountain tops and scream on the top of my lungs. I want late night bonfires, and early sunrises. The stillness and darkness of the night won’t phase me like it usually does; no monsters and nightmares here. I want to camp out in the forest and befriend nature. To feel the sun on my face and have no worries. I want amazing stories to tell my children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren even. Stories about falling in love, exotic places, crazy adventures, outrageous dares, big opportunities. The world has so much to offer, and you only live once. Take a chance.

Hip flexor and hamstring.

I went to the trainer (SHE’S SO PRETTY AND NICE) today during gymnastics practice, and apparently I pulled my hip flexor and hamstring. I was like woww, good freaking game Karen! So she helped me stretch it out and that burned like a bitch. BUT IT FELT SO MUCH BETTER AFTERWARDS. Then I went back to practice and did more fun gymnastics stuff. YAYY.

During seventh period I was in the library like for a majority of the time just wandering around waiting for my music video group to come, and then we sang in a room we thought was sound proof….execpt it wasn’t. And people sitting outside looked in and started giving us weird looks/laughing. How embarassing. But it’s all good, it’s not like those people matter.

Library after gymnastics practice with @lovemishell and saw a bunch of people there. Got some homework done, couldn’t figure out how to do the graphs for my lab, gave up, and just hung out.

BUY YOUR SERENADES TOMORROW!

I’m a contradicting person. It’s hard to define me, so don’t act like you know me. Right now, I barely know myself. I know I can be stubborn, hard to deal with, selfish, annoying, rude, and all of that. But I also know that I am open minded, laid back, giving, respectful, and kind. I’m a hypocrite, yes. I’ve made empty promises, and I’ve hated people. I don’t think that makes me a bad person though……does it?

There are people I know who tries to put on a show. Their reputation is everything to them. They want to be seen as cool, nice, loving, pretty, smart, and most importantly perfect. They make up lie after lie, just so they can cover up who they really are. They talk behind people’s backs; “she’s so ugly”, “she’s so fat”, “oh my god, what is she wearing”. I can’t make myself respect these people.

But, who am I to say such a thing? Who hasn’t talked behind someone’s back? Who hasn’t lied to keep up their reputation? Who hasn’t acted fake just to be seen as a “nice” person? I’ve done these things, but I’m not regretful. I’m learning. We’re all learning.

High school is flying by, I remember freshman year like it was yesterday. I’m going to be a senior in less than six months. These past few years has been a crazy roller-coaster, but in the end, it’ll all be worth it. There are things that I learned that will stay with me until the day that I die.

Gymnastics.

I’m so happy with my decision of doing gymnastics over badminton; I love badminton, and I love the people in it, but I’m so much more comfortable and confident with what I’m doing in gymnastics. Practice was fun today, and everyone’s really nice. I’m super excited for the rest of the season (:

Went to the library with @lovemishell and @ibriannguyen (NICE HAIR DUDE~!) after practice today, bought a salad for three bucks and ate it in the back of the library, hehe. Yummyy. I don’t really have much to say about today, all in all it was just a pretty chill day.

But now I have a massive headache that won’t go away……ughhhhh.

KENYA FREAKING DANCE.

Today was fucking just flat out amazing. Went downtown with @lovemishell, @hihellowhatsup, and unbelieve-a-nathan for lunch and then we went back to go backstage for our VIP stuff. HOLY. We got a tour, and then meet and greet was so funn. Met up with JKim, @hugglife, and a bunch of other people. We Are Heroes, Team Millennia, and Poreotics were so funny and nice<3 We got pictures and autographs and screamed, and wooooo! Then the performances were ridiculous! Everyone was SO GOOD. GTFO (YAY BOYSS, GOOD JOBB!) were so amazing, and everyone did such a great job, it was so cool to see everything come together after seeing their practices so many times. MVP and VIP SJ gave me goosebumps, and Poreotics were so mesmorizing. Shout out to Movement Munchers, Funksters, Xposed, Pandora’s Myth, MK Modern, Silhouette, Future Shock SJ, Project EM, Simplex Rockers, Public Figures, Plan B, De La Femme, thatONEcompany, Main Stacks, Prophecy, Funks SF, Team Millennia, and We Are Heroes! I loved all of your performances, you guys rocked it (:

After Kenya Dance, I went to Johnny Rockets with @hihellowhatsup @hugglife, and @tohtohroh. Yummyyy(: We had a mini “photo shoot” and just kicked it until @hugglife’s dad came and picked us up. TODAY WAS A SUPER FUN DAY. Loved it, and I would definitely want to do it again soon.

[edit] Okay, I totally forgot to mention this, but RJ from Supreme Soul gives the best hugs<3 HEHEHEHEHEHE. Alright, I’m done.

“Looking back on what I said all those years ago, all the hopes and dreams I had, I’ve come to the conclusion that if having things turn out the way you wanted them to is a measure of a successful life, then some would say I’m a failure. The important thing is not to be bitter over life’s disappointments. Learn to let go of the past. And recognize that every day won’t be sunny, and when you find yourself lost in the darkness and despair, remember it’s only in the black of night you see the stars. And those stars will lead you back home. So don’t be afraid to make mistakes, to stumble and fall, cause most of the time, the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe you’ll get everything you wish for. Maybe you’ll get more than you ever could have imagined. Who knows where life will take you. The road is long and in the end, the journey is the destination.” —Whitey Durham- One Tree Hill (via quote-book)
