YAAAY!
For the past couple weeks I have been really stressed out and worried about Loma Linda. Before I could get an interview, all of my transcripts and recommendations had to be turned in. They didn't have my PCC and LSU ones even though both school said they sent them in March. So I have been frantically trying to get them to resend them to LLU. The last day for interviews is on Tuesday so I had to get them turned in fast. LSU got there already, but I will still waiting for PCC. For the past week I've called LLU about it. I feel kind of bad, but it paid off because my PCC transcript came today. I was so relieved! My interview is on Tuesday at 12 pm. Wish me luck! =D

I'm so tired of school. I want summer vacation to come already. My brain hurts.

Bryan sent me the new EP from The Spill Canvas, and there is this one song that I really like.

Catch the Wind by The Spill Canvas

In the chilly hours and minutes of uncertainty
I long to be in the warm hold of your loving mind
To feel you all around
And to take your hand along the sand
I may as well try and catch the wind
When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide awhile behind your smile
Everywhere I'd look your eyes I'd find
For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing
Would make me sing
But I may as well try and catch the wind
When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you here to kill my fears
To help me leave all my blues behind
For standing in your heart
Is where I want to be, I long to be
But I may as well try and catch the wind

Yesterday was a fun day. The roomies had a girls night out. We ate at The Boat. I love their pad se ew and their green beans! We went to this one Japanese store. I really want to buy a Japanese magazine, but they are a bit pricey. I wanted to practice my Japanese reading skills and look at shoes and clothes. Ha ha! But I did get to buy cute pencils and mango and apple hi-chews. Then we went to Cue and took sticker pictures. Japanese sticker pictures are so much fun!

Today is not such a good day. Although I did get to sleep in until 12. School and transferring schools are getting to me. I cried to today. I cried! I don't cry! What the hell! I'm so tired.

This is why this is why this is why I'm hot!

We got a TV yesterday. It's a curse for me. All I do is lay on my bed and watch South Park or whatever DVDs we have. The TV hasn't been off since we got it. I'm lazy.

Taka: What's after 'ya'?
Me: It's 'ya ma.'
Taka: Yah, 'ma' is after 'ya.'
Me: Yah, 'ya ma.'
Taka: Ya?
Me: Yah, 'ya.'

Japanese class is so much fun! Today we took a break a break at 7:45. Connie, Taka, and I sat outside and talked until 8:50. It was supposed to be a 15 minute break, but we took an hour and five minute one instead. That's why I love that class. You can do whatever you want and at your own pace. When we got back to the classroom, everyone was busy doing their stuff. Us three sat down for five minutes, then the teacher told us all to take another break. Good times.

Today I had CPR class. It was supposed to be from 8-5, but we got out early. I wondered why it was so long, and it's because we also did child and infant care. So now I am certified to do CPR on adults, children and infants. So if anyone goes into cardiac arrest, I can use a defibrillator on you and send a shot of electricity to your heart. Ha ha!

What a wonderful day! It was almost a perfect day, except for some intruders. Psh! My classes went by fast and I got out of lab early. My lab partner also gave me the answers to the post lab questions, and I didn't even ask her. Cool! I got to work out AND do homework AND take a nap. Briggitte and I went to eat at a new Salvadorian restaurant near school. Their pupusas were bomb! We went to target and got swim suits for $4! Amazing! We went to Taco Bell to get more food. Then we went on a hunt for "The Wizard of Oz." We've been really wanting to watch it since we watched "Wicked" so that we could correlate it together. We found it at the little movie store near school. We also rented "Casino Royale." Now Briggitte, Connie, and I are going to watch the movies. AND I don't have class tomorrow. WOOT!

My classes this quarter are pretty good. Biochemistry is going to be challenging. I'm going to have to study daily and work extra hard to get a the grade I want. Christian Beliefs is not bad. The professor is really funny. But my Japanese class is awesome! It's not like a class at all. It's more like a day care. Ha ha! We all split up, do whatever we want and go at our own pace. I'm also learning a little Chinese and Korean because of the people in my class. And my "lab" is to watch Japanese anime, dramas, or shows, or do something related to Japanese. I love it!

Phew. I have survived spring break. I have one more day left, and I will be volunteering and returning to La Sierra. This spring break was stressful, at least more than all the others I've had. I had to take care of things for volunteering at the hospital which meant running around looking for various offices and people. Then I had to finish my Loma Linda application. It's due tonight, but I had to finish it before I had to take my entrance tests. I needed one more recommender and only had a couple days to find one. Damn my procrastination. My essay was missing some important points so I had to tweak it. I also had to study for my LLU entrance test. I hate science, math, reading comprehension, and English. I woke up at 6 am on Friday to get ready to head over to LLU. I didn't study much. I looked up some math equations online. That was it. I wasn't too nervous on the way there, but once I got onto the campus, I swear I was going to pee in my pants. Every time I see that campus, I get this weird twisty feeling in my stomach. I entered the School of Nursing building. Ronan and Stephen were already there so I felt more relaxed since I wasn't alone. LLU gives you two chances to take the test, but if you fail the second time, you can't take it for another year which means you can't enter to program for another year. But I want to be a nurse now! Ha ha. The tests took six hours. SIX HOURS! How can any human being sit in one stop taking tests for that long? We started 30 minutes late. The first test, the TEAS test, had four sections: reading comp, math, science, and English. It wasn't too bad. They gave me more time than I expected for each section which gave me time to relax between each section. The proctor was barely in the room. The whole test was on the computer and each person had different tests. You could move on from one section to another once you finished the previous section so I got to go at my own pace, somewhat. I finished in two and a half hours, but my head was hurting. I went outside to get my test score. I passed! I was so scared of that test because most of the people I know fail it the first time. I wasn't ready to take the critical thinking test so I hung out in the halls. I saw Dennis, Kristina, and Louvelle. I hung out with them for a while then went back in to take the critical thinking test. I passed, but it was ridiculous!
"Poland is not a monarchy. After WWII no country was a monarchy. There are no more monarchies in the world. But we would be ignorant to not look at the Middle Eastern culture. What are these facts trying to prove?"
Then there were scenarios that were given to us, and they asked, "How do you evaluate the conclusion? Good because the facts are state correctly. Good because it points out all the flaws of the argument. Poor because... or Poor because..."
What the hell! I hate thinking critically. The weird thing is that I got a high score on it, but I had no idea what answers I was putting down. Then I had to take a personality test. After all that, my brain was fried. Kristina offered for me to stay over at her house and we would go to LA in the morning. I just had to wait for her to finish with something. I chilled with Dennis, and he gave me a tour of the Nursing building and the Med Center. The School of Nursing and School of Pharmacy share the same building. After taking my tests and turning in my application, I feel more comfortable at LLU. Dennis, Kristina, Louvelle, and I ate at Chipotle. Us girls hung out at Louvelle's room for a while, then I went to Kristina's house. I watched Babel, and I do not like that movie.
Today I went with Khaing and Kristina to Pink's and Pinkberry. We also went to USC to watch the Filipino Club perform a play of the Korean movie "My Sassy Girl." We left at intermission because it wasn't very good. Now that my Loma Linda stuff is over, I can finally relax, with one day of vacation left.
This is a long post.. sorry.

I'm trying to study for my LLU test tomorrow, but all I can think about is pho.

I FINISHED MY LOMA LINDA UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF NURSING APPLICATION!! Finally.

Half of my spring break is gone. Damn.

"This is a new song. It's called 'Connect the Dots' and it's about sex."

Yep. Tonight I went to a Spill Canvas concert with Bryan at the Glass House in Pomona. It was an awesome concert! The crowd was really into it which got me really into it. I made use of my "rocker hair," as Connie would call it. When Spill Canvas went on, I almost crapped my pants. No, I didn't, but I was really excited. I got really into the last two songs, "Lust a Prima Vista" and "All Hail the Heartbreaker." "All Hail the Heartbreaker" was the only song I really wanted to hear because it's my favorite. My voice is almost gone, I can barely hear anything, and my feet hurt, but it was soooo worth it!
The bands that went before them kind of sucked. The first one was The Color Turning. They scared me. The whole time there was red light on them, and it didn't help that when the lead singer sang, he looked like Satan. Because of the red light, it looked like they were descending down to hell. But the funny part was that they had some video clips playing in the background, and it was of a girl in a grassy field picking a dandelion. Somehow hell and dandelions don't mix to me.
The second band was Cosmonaut. For half of their set, I didn't know who they were. Finally they said who they were, and I heard a bunch of people behind me say "Oh, that's who they are!" So I wasn't the only person lost.
The third band was... interesting. They were called The Oohlas. The lead singer was a girl, and she reminded me of a Jack O'Lantern. Her hair was orange, and she had large dark eyes. She made these weird facial expressions when she sang and had a really weird voice. The girl was moving around so much that she fell over. That was pretty funny.
Regardless of the sucky bands, Spill Canvas made up for it.

I need a firmer hand shake.

Yesterday I went to Hollywood and Beverly Hills with Daryl, Erin, Khaing, and Kris. On our way to Pink's, Khaing almost ran over a woman and her baby. It was scary at the time, but it became the joke of the day. At Pink's, I got the Ozzy spicy dog. It had the hardest time eating it because it was huge, messy, and spicy. But it was worth it. Daryl and Kris tried this old soda called Bubble Up. I don't usually like soda, but this one I really like. So that's the second soda that I actually like. We went to Pinkberry. I got a medium plain with blueberries, kiwi, and mango. YUM! Khaing wanted to go to Sprinkles so she could buy a box. I love their cupcakes! They are a bit pricey but worth it. We walked around Beverly Hills to kill time. There are a lot of asians there. I want Pinkberry again!

SPRING BREAK!!

Winter quarter 2007 is finally over. It went by really fast, but the end brought me a lot of stress. But now it's spring break so I can enjoy my life for the next two weeks. I have an extra long spring break because my finals ended early. Tomorrow I'm going to Hollywood with Khaing and Kris. Pink's hot dogs, Pinkberry, and Sprinkles here I come!
