Work out more...lose weight...do better in school..

Lets face it, lost cause. We have not even started the year and I have already given up on my New Years Resolutions! I am kidding guys, I actually started my New Years Resolutions early this year, I take that back all of them except the do better in school one. I PROMISE to do better in school because it is getting too expensive for me. Nonetheless here we are on the final post of 08 and I have nothing to say! So stay with me. Wait!!! I can do a picture Blog! Yessss...I shall do that!!! :)
So here I am on the right finishing 07 and getting ready for 08. I had long hair, oh I miss the long hair! Loving my cousins faces huh?? Gotta love it!

Here is like 1/30th of my family hanging for my dad's birthday at our backyard. Yes it was hella fun. As you can see we got the carne asada with a whole thing of salsa along with the booze. Yes typical family gathering.This is the crappy picture my cell phone took for the Dodgers/Giants game which my friends and I went. Good Times!! BTW Dodgers lost but it is okay, I dont like them anyways! Ha! :)
Another big thing in 08 was my graduation from CC. Yes this is my AA! :D
Here we have the Halloween Fundraiser for PTK 08, I promise I am not asian!
Here we have the 08 PTK Regional for the CA/NV region. Yes we were awesome hosts! and I just love this picture, can you find me??

Here we start a string of pictures in Philly, yes we had some free time. Here I am on our way back to our hotel rooms.
This is our last night in Philadelphia so we had to look hella good for the Gala Awards. Too bad we did not win anything. I also was pissed that the dancing social was like completly not existent because the awards went for so long. Ah well I still got to hang with the person I planned on hanging with. I miss Philly. :(
Here we are: (Left) Riley, Emily, and I. We were SOOO bored! So we took non stop pictures of ourselves!
Here is Riley and I with the statues outside the Philadelphia Phillies Stadium. Here we are by City Hall so we thought we would have fun with the falling domino.


Here I am riding the whatever its called at like 5 am! 1 hr of sleep after walking in Philadelphia for like ever! It was sooo worth it. Post Starbucks picture, priceless!


This is the group arriving to Sacramento! My goodness this was a good ass time!!! :)
This is a pic of my work buddies (not even close to all of them) and us doing it big at our annual xmas party!

PTK Officers and friends gathering, good times again!
And here is how I finish the year, looking for something better. I had my ups and downs and now I hope for something a little better. As for the rest of you, have a great New Years Eve and be safe because I want to have a great 2009 with you in it. Love you all more than you will ever know. One Love.

You gotta close the year on the right foot....

But would it not make more sense to leave on the left foot so you can start the new year stepping on the right foot? See? Simple things like these kill this little head of mine but not tonight. *bites on Hershey's milk chocolate bar* Gawd I am so pregnant! I have cravings at times it scares me! *looks at wrapper* Net Wt 4.4 oz (124 g) yes the BIG bar! I am not even half way done and I think I will call it a day on this bad boy. Plus it can't be that healthy for the face. So here we are kids! Its Christmas DAY, paid holiday. The only two reasons I know today is a holiday is because everyone is closed (not Starbucks though!) and I get paid at work! Hooray for state government jobs! I really do not know what to tell you about this blog so stay with me okay? I will be as random as possible. *shuffling through iTunes to find THAT song* AH! Here we go, lets begin!

The chick above has nothing to do with what I have to say here but damn that thing looks hella good on her, yes I think of my readers too. Never and I mean never answer the door when a Santa Clause is outside waiting for you to open the door. I mean how cruel can people get? Local story, a man who went through a divorce thought to get revenge on his family in Covina, CA and knocked on the door dressed as Santa Clause. They opened the door and he opened fire shooting the whole family. He also had a propane tank and set the house on fire on CHRISTMAS EVE! How mental is this guy? He killed himself 60 miles from the crime scene. I just cannot have hope living in such a society with these types of nut cases. Here is the link for those who wish to get all the information on the story.

How can we look back and not talk about the man with a plan! The man of the hour! The man who gave the GOP a run for their money. Then again that is not a fair statement because even Paris Hilton would have done marvelous against John McCain and Sarah Palin. After a devastating 8 years under Bush I can say he won this fair and square. I want to leave off on a positive note, I hope that our current situation as a nation gets better in 3 years. Already there are some decisions Barack has made that I am not THRILLED about but I see that he has surrounded himself with knowledgeable individuals. I look forward to 4 hard, changing, interesting, yet history making years. I have hope.

First of all, who ever has not watched The Dark Knight, you are the biggest bum in bum history! R.I.P Heath! I want to do a quick review of what movies I thought were the best in 2008. I dont care what the academy awards snobs say all I care is what I say. Why so serious?! Ha! Love it! Anyways there is no question on which movie I think is number one...*drumroll* THE DARK KNIGHT!!! It was action packed, creepy, deep, and stimulated the mind for a sec trying to think why Batman did what he did. Plus you can NEVER go wrong with a comic book movie. Second place is taken by IRON MAN. Yes it was a great movie yay Downey Jr.! Third place goes to I Am Legend!! Sorry I am biased but I love Will Smith! Okay here is a list of movies I still have to watch and may be added in the good 2008 movie categories: Revolutionary Road (Hello! Titanic sucker here!), Saw 5 (I cant believe I have not seen this!), The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (Looks good and I am not talking about Brad Pitt!), Milk (I LOVE politics and I am a great supporter of the gay/lesbian movement), Tropic Thunder (Ben Stiller is my boi!), Role Models (gotta love me some McLovin), and Pineapple Express (this guy can write some good shit when he is high!).
Before I get knee deep into music for the year 2008 I would like to give a shoutout to my gurl BRITNEY! Yes Britney Spears, the comeback kid of 2008! I knew she was going to prove the world wrong! She is back and hotter than ever!
Its Weezy baby! Yes Mr. Carter (and I aint talking about Jay-Z) you were the biggest thing to hit this year and I do not care what Bilboard has to say. I loved your album! I loved your performances! I loved eveyrything but your face this year! I am sorry but you are no attractive man. I am attracted to your money that is for sure! Lollipop took the world by storm. My favorite line is "call me so I can make it juicy for yah" and that is because I am the world's biggest perv and I would love to have that whispered in my ear. Hahaha! See? Perv! Nonetheless you take the cake this year and I am glad! Other big artists this year were: AC/DC, Metallica, Britney Spears, Jordin Sparks, Danity Kane, Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Ludacris, Chris Brown, Rihanna, T.I., Flo Rida, Katy Perry, Usher, Pussycat Dolls, and Rihanna.


This picture is from Mt. Baldy which is located 10 minutes from my home. It is always fun to go and just hang. It is definitely a white Christmas up here and I love to just go and hang on random ass days. Before my final I headed up here with JJ to relax and it was so much fun freezing our bums off playing with the snow. Things like these are moments that make hard things worth while. I deff got my peace up here and headed to my finals with a clear mind and hopefully kicked ass on it.
I leave you with this pretty pic I took while driving to work one morning on the I-10 Fwy and just great wishes on these holidays. Hopefully I can squeeze in another blog for 08 and we can welcome the new year with new resolutions and good thoughts. Much love everyone.

Where the hell have you been?!

Good question and to tell you the truth I really do not know. I have finals in two weeks and I am not caring what so ever. Why?! I do not know. I can care less about school and life at this point. I am working on it people! I am trying here. Moving on.

I have not taken a moment to really reflect on the situation that happened a couple weeks ago and I have realized that I am keeping myself real busy and not giving myself a moment to think. I finally sat myself down and thought about it all and I am extremely sad. I guess it was freaking out people that the next day I was no longer crying. I hopped out of bed and went to work and when I walked in I got a hug from every co worker. It hurt, I did not want to remember but it was hard because it kept being brought up. Finally I left work and I called my mom while I was at the park and just hearing her voice and her worry made me cry... I broke down again. Just typing about it makes me sad. My dad left us for a week and helped my family in El Salvador who needed him more than any of us here. The death, the murder of my brother has left us in not the best mood for these "happy holidays." As far as it goes for my dad, he is hurting and its hurting me because I have never seen my dad like this. He said he did not feel like really celebrating the holidays and we have decided to be very low key this year. I understand.

I can definitely say that 2008 has been a bad year for me. Not only has it been a horrible year economically but also emotionally. I was heart broken from that one person I thought would never break my heart. Over. Three years of my life down the drain. I am too young to know what love is many say but if it hurts this bad now and this is not love, I do not want to love.

Oh 2008 you have brought me my first real emotional breakdown. I have pretty bad mood swings at times but I have never collapsed on the floor before to tell you the truth. Looking back at it now it is quite scary what happened that morning.

But I will not sit here and say it was all bad. Not at all. I graduated from community college and was accepted to very great universities and I am now a junior at CSUF. I also was given the opportunity to have great people around me for most of the year. Given tragedies it is easy to see who really are your friends. Thanks to all of you who stuck with me through the hard times I really do appreciate it. I also had a once in a lifetime opportunity to fly to the East coast and be in the city of brotherly love and hang with unforgettable people. Thank you.

I know I have been gone for a long while and this is not the best way to come back but I do feel better that I am taking the time and letting all this out there. Now I will sit here and finish the last of my christmas cards and get ready to send out. Have a great one.
