Caller #9


Soo, last wednesday, Wednesday the 5th of september 07 I was driving home listening to the radio. I had my phone in my hand and the radio announcer said, to win call 1800-###-####. As i said, i happened to have my phone in my hand and she said the numbers slow enough that I was able to type them in. i never call radio stations, but then i thought, well since I have the number i might as well try. I called and it said caller #3 try again....(I needed to be caller number nine). I called back one last time....someone said hello? and i was like....Hello? I didn't know what to do. was I caller number 9? Was this the right number? Then I thought, what do people usually say when they're on the radio? and then i realized the fact that someone picked up probabely meant I was caller number 9! I said, am i caller number 9? YES!! then i precedeed to make a lot of riduculous excited noises...because really i had no idea what I had won....something asian....and something to do with tea. So the announcer told me I had won two tickets to the event...(still not knowing what event)....AND since it was wednesday i also won a limo for the night and dinner for two at beautiful restaurant on the embarcadero. WoW!! I could not believe this...i've never won anything! and i wasn't even going to call... i could not believe this was happening to me!
The event was for the next day...thursday.
The next day, i shaved, showered got all dressed up, perfume, make-up, it was perfect. I had the PERFECT outfit. The event was tea tasting at the asian art museum. I had on a simple black dress with a chinese clasp at the top, and my beautiful chinese jacked that susi and mamaquerida helped me buy. i looked great, very fitting for the occation and fancy for our dinner and limo. i went with juan, who wore a suit and looked very handsome with his SHORT hair.
the limo picked us up at 6:30....we went to the museum, tasted tea, looked at the artifacts, and then the limo came back at 8:15 to take us to dinner at Chiya, where we had a very beautiful/expensive meal. I had risotto, juan had the serloin steak. We also had these really good drinks..i had a cosmojito, and he had a cucumber martini....both were excellent even though I usually hate drinking. We had no room for dessert so we went outside to our limo who was waiting for us to take us home. But before taking us home he took us to a very shishi bar called the W, juan had another drink and then we went home in our limo. What a night!

mi titi
i saw an old vintage coke sign and thought of you
my chain broke, my neck feels bare without you there
i cried the other day, just couldn't bare that you are away
i found the cd we listened to while you came to visit me, you know "she likes me for me" the last time i heard it was with you
bernardo called me a while ago, i was surprised, he never calls me, he called to say he was sorry, he had just heard the news.
then i also talked to Casey he was sorry too, and i remembered the time you bit me soo hard i had a bruise for a week,
i wish i still had that buise
do you remember water world, or was it marin world? great america? i can barely remember now the time we went there
I'll have to ask carlos,
I think you were wearing that blue skirt- no that was palm springs, that was a fun trip too, it was really hot
my memories are not as clear as i would like them to be. I wish i could remember better the moments we had together.
i remember you were brave, very little but very brave
you stuck with me and susi when we had to swim around the whole pier to escape the pica picas
you jumped off the waterfalls with avery and i- i think?
you used a tampon your first try....it took me years and many attempts to get up the nerve
you jogged with adrian and i around the whole resevoir, i was tired but every time i looked behing me there you were
i could not believe it.
to be continued...i am constantly reminded and thinking of you

Ahh ha ha ha




This is my favorite part of the movie "The fifth element," i love her voice!
i feel like such a dork because i log into my blogspot just to watch this video over and over
im going to be her next holloween.

I've Turned into a NERD!


Chemistry is my LIFE these days.
i have chemistry every day of the week! I think, dream and eat chemisty. I can't look at a boiling pot of water without thinking about it's boiling point and if i add chicken broth will the boiling point be higher and lower, and what would be the formula for chicken broth. I can't stop starring at the bubbles forming at the bottom of the pot, amazed how all my life i thought those bubbles were air. In actuality it is water vapor, the SAME water molecules, just in gas form. Chemistry Chemistry Chemistry.
I got an A on my first test...yeah! i just took my second midterm, i'll let you know if all these thoughts of chemistry paid off.

Random Acts of Kindness


It was raining hard one day on my walk to school. I don't know why i was so unprepared but i didn't have an umbrella or rain jacket. I was getting soaked. Suddenly a car slows down next to me and a man hands an umbrella out the window. I have another one he shouted as he rolled away.
That small random act from a stranger made my day.
What random act of kindness has happened to you?
