hey everyone...in case you're interested, i switched over to a new xanga site...

http://www.xanga.com/girlwithamessage

thanks! =)

happy february! sucks that i'm sick again but at least i've still got some energy left to update my xanga for all u lovely people out there...haha...so this stewy layout was actually done by my lil sister (thanks!) and i think it's adorable too =)

i've seen a few movies lately and all of them have been pretty good: the island, madagascar, the longest yard, fantastic four, wedding crashers, and underworld: evolution...and i went clubbing last saturday at crossing the bar...it was ok...line was short but music wasn't that great...luckily it didn't rain =)

school and work together is starting to get a little exhausting...i only have three classes but i work about 28 hours a week...hopefully i can manage.

me and eric are good. still have petty fights like any other couple but we're learning to apologize and forgive much quicker than before...yay.

i'm having a family dinner this weekend to celebrate chinese new year again, my first dinner was just my sisters and brother in law, parents and eric...i'm excited for more food though.

even though it's still far away...i'm getting excited for my birthday haha...the big 21 whoo...i'm thinking of having a party at a club but we'll see...

whoo hoo...welcome to the NEW year...it's time for some changes!

- new phone

- new phone number (IM me if you want/need it)

- new and very cool look in my room

- new haircut

- new hobbies

- new classes and books

- new resolutions (hmm or not so much...more like a second chance to keep old ones)

- EDIT: AND a new helpdesk schedule =) [thanks amy!]

- it's a new and good year to renew relationships and faith =)

life has definitely been challenging lately...school's tough, two jobs has finally hit me hard now during F.I.N.A.L.S season, and i can't believe it's already been a month since the family incident (thanks to all those who visited...it's much appreciated!)...

what do i have to look forward to?...winterbreak = no school, more work, some play, and a semester closer to graduating...it's not that i really want to get out in the "real world" and do the suit-and-tie thing, but it's just becoming more and more obvious to me that life was not made for working and getting tied up in school and jobs...it's made for loving, for caring, for being happy and for keeping the faith =)

PLEASE HELP!!!

hey everyone...i'm gonna use my xanga (as well as AIM, facebook, friendster, etc) for a plug about my education class...so basically my environmental class and i are planning a class trip to visit New Orleans during our winter vacation to help with community building and environmental restoration...so far in the works, we are going to rent a 15 passenger van and drive there (it's a 30something hour ride...crazy huh?) and we're gonna need money for van rental, gas, rent, food, etc...THEREFORE, we are holding a raffle to raise money...we have great gifts from different sponsors, such as sway (yes my job), starbucks, brazil cafe, landmarks theatres, ink stone, touchless car washes, curves, pyramid brewery, claremont hotel, norcal dj music academy and designer perfumes (chanel, acqua di gio)....tickets are $1 each so please buy a bunch from me!! it's for a GREAT cause =) THANKS!!!
