ahh, this semester sucks major ass.  i finally finished midterms this week, so a few friends and i decided to go out to the city for a night out with the girls.  oh my god it was so much fun.  we ended up at ruby skye where the owner invited us in for a "special price", so we went in.  so we're dancing and these nasty ass guys kept trying to get up on us...and by nasty, i mean, dude, what the hell??  let me describe a few of them:  one was carrying around a duffel bag while he was dancing, another was one of those stereotypical white boys shaking his ass across the room, and then like, 4 guys from chille were hella trying to take pictures of us...so yeah, i think you get the picture...

after that, there were these live hip-hop performers, so we were all up in the front dancing our asses off like groupies, and afterwards, the group invited us upstairs to their vip room.  omg, it was hella crazy but so much fun.  later the guys came downstairs and danced with us for awhile, and by that time it was late as hell so we left.

dude, it's stuff like that which makes me realize how much i miss spending time with the girls...

summer is sooo incredible.  every morning i'm at the gym, then spend the rest of the day at work, then afterwards i'm out for the rest of the night with friends.  notice i never mention the words "homework" or "studying."  mmm, no obligations after work...not to mention my three day weekends.  this is the best.

i'm getting really excited about these weekend trips i have planned for the rest of the summer...lots of places i've never been before or haven't been for awhile.  next up, camping...and any additional suggestions are always appreciated =) 

all right...i believe it's time for bed.  i'm on this crazy "sleep early, wake up early" schedule...

i'll keep this short considering it's 7 in the morning (still adjusting) and there have been several requests that i update...sorry!

well, i'm back.  the past few weeks i spent away from all the commotion of home and school life allowed me to actually use some of that jen time i've kept for so long in storage.  since i've been home from hong kong, i've spent time with some of my best friends...it seems i'd forgotten how nice it was to sit around starbucks doing nothing but sipping our coffee and sharing our current events.  but there are still a few others i expect to see before the end of summer =)

dude, i really don't know if i'll be able to survive this week.  the thought of spending six more days in the library...ughhh, i'd rather stick my finger in my eye then run full speed into a brick wall.  and i won't even mention all the other stuff i've had my mind on...i desperately want to run my ass off for a few hours, but i'm not willing spare a single one of these precious hours anytime soon...and this lack of exercise contributes to all this excess weight, which leaves me feeling self-conscious and so i'm anxiously awaiting the return to my routine...it's all a vicious cycle...

now only if my dear 188 partner would suprise me by finishing coding all of a6 for me so i get full credit without touching that sucker =)...how i regret taking this class (anyone considering cs188 for the following semester, i urge you to think twice...i'd rather be slapped twenty times and punched in the gut than to take this class again...)

lately i've been feeling incredibly dizzy and have these episodes in which i'm all of a sudden unable to breathe...i have no doubt that finals, as well as a whole bunch of other unmentionable crap, are the causes...

i've been away from the gym now for about three weeks and feeling lousier than ever.  i realize it's probably better that i'm spending more time studying, but it doesn't help that i have all these extra thoughts going through my mind while i'm reading or coding or trying to sleep...

the end of the  year is fast approaching and i'm now realizing that the people and things that i've grown use to in the past two years...or less...will soon be gone.  it's like high school graduation all over again; only this time you know that when people go home for vacation, it's not back to sl...i'm consciously making an effort to spend more time with people as the final days approach, but i know it'll never be enough...i get upset just thinking about it, so i'm trying to stop...
