WHY! do you build me up (build me up) buttercup baby?. after that we left there in hopes to come back later.. but me and my bro ended up staying at my lolas house for the remainder of the night and watched movies and played with my cousin christian. hes one and a half-ish now. man.. i remember when he could fit inside one of those neck pillows.. anyway.. later.. joe montano stopped by. i swear.. i see that guy every month. anyway. later we ended up playing trivial pursuit with joe and my cousins. i love my cousins. theyre great. but that was my day. wow. this is a short ass entry.

112702 well today.. got out of school at 1020am. pretty spanky if you ask me. well i got home b/c adrienne wanted me to forge something on my comp. you know.. the usual business. anyway. did that good mess and went back to school to pick up the bang-a-rang gang (minus rayray and randy plus juanito and steve) for chillins afterschool. we saw that myra had this big cake that she was giving away and me and dana were like gimme! but we didnt have a knife or anything to cut it with b/c she wanted to keep the word "day" that was on the cake.. so we all went back to my car to find something to cut it with. what did we find? a cd. yes. a cd. so i was sitting there.. minding my own business in the drivers seat... taking pictures with my digital camara of myra and dana cutting the cake with my cd.. when all of a sudden ray freakin covers my face in white icing. i was like.. oh hail no! so i get out.. put down my camara and took a chunk of the orange icing and smacked him. well it wasnt a smack persay.. but it sounds so much better when i say smack.. but anyway. revenge is sweet (no pun intended.. and for all those who didnt get the pun.. icing=sweet).

all was quiet on the driver's seat front..
the moment before the first shots were fired in the cake wars...
(thats dana in the pic)
anyway. saw uche okoli and iffy umejei in the car next to us. they witnessed our cake fight. they wanted some cake so we gave them a handfull.. i mean.. no plates slash utensils, naw mean? man.. so we went back to danas to get ourselves cleaned up. everyone had icing on them somehow. while we were at danas.. we saw dennis monton and zernan garcia drive by (i could tell by zernan's james dean look). after that.. we went to alex's to continue the cake war. it was dana vs alex this time. so we pull up and notice that the garage is cracked and we see two sets of feet. of course.. it is alex and vince sibal the "in-vin-ce-sibal". so dana comes up to alex.. and smashes the icing in his face. that was funny. well.. we felt bad.. but it was funny. after that.. we went back to my house b/c i had to pick up some stuff and actually ended up playing some smash brothers. we left there so we could pick up some pancit for zachs family at maymar. after that.. we had a manhunt for pandesal for my mom.. too bad everywhere everyone had to have a reservation! so no pandesal.. after that.. we went to ray's aunt's house to look for randy but he wasnt there.. so we went to walmart to one hour some film and to the dollar tree to find a present for taylor (zachs lil sis--it was her bday).. went by ray's sister's house to pick up the ring 2 but she said to just pick it up later
look. its steve and ray with their
look at me im a model for american eagle ad.
finally went to zachs house around 4 ish. when we got there.. ate the pancit we've been craving for so long and we just goofed around with gerald and zach and his cousin stephanie and watched monsters inc b/c ray has never seen it (that deprived boy). after that.. went to walmart to pick up dana's film and the ring 2 and then took dana home. when we got back at zachs house.. we celebrated taylor's bday with his family and extended family (who by the way are really cool people). then we went upstairs then all of a sudden we saw someone at the top of the stairs reaching out for us and we were like ahH!.. but it was just eli. then we saw ginalyn and tristan. we were like.. when did all you guys get here?? it was funny. it was like they came out of thin air.. haha. anyway. then i had to take onetwo home. so we got back from dropping off onetwo.. we went up the stairs so we could start the movie.. which was effing scary!! it was like the death grip all over again! man. it got scurry b/c all of a sudden the tv said 5 remain and we're like.. double you tea eff?! then it started counting down.. 4.. 3.. 2.. 1 remain.. so when it finally got to 0 remain. we're like. ok.. nothing happened.. then the tv turned off! we all screamed. too bad it turned off b/c the sleep mode was on. that was too funny. but that movie was scary. just because all the images are just disturbing. maybe not as graphic as "the ring" the american version.. but it had its own style.. i dont know what everyone was talking about.. they said the room temp dropped in zachs room toward the end of the movie.. iono. i was warm. after that.. we all had to peace out. ray had to go to his aunties olongapo party and eli went with him to sleep over and i needed to go home.. and we just dropped off steve. so we said our farewells to the family and made our way.

me and ray came to the conclusion that "sometimes when you get a negative reaction from someone, it just gives more incentive to do it again. just to prove that theyre wrong."
so today was pretty weird. i actually did not spend the day with ray or alex or dana or zach. it was weird. i mean.. i took dana and zach home today.. but that was it. ray told me that he was going to walk to alex's to session. so that was weird. actually did not spend the day with the bang-a-rang. havent done that in like.. two weeks! i mean. if you read my e's from the past two weeks: in all of them i spent the whole day with ray, or dana and ray, or juanito and ray, or ray juanito and kristina, or ray and zach, or just with the bang-a-rang and the usual suspects in general. to the least i always had ray. good lord. thats alot of ray. haha. what can i say? hes just a really good friend.
anyhooters. i kinda dont like how everyone is making all these assumptions. and usually i dont post things like this but what can i say? its not like theres any other way to get it heard. so here i go:
its
nOthiN'
really.
so what else i do today? well i picked up my brother at odu because all the dorm people had to clear out or something.. so i left here like at 4oclock and i thought: ill be home before rodi comes (hes was to pick me up for the ron&rina show at matt malloys at 630) so went to odu.. got there at like 420 b/c there was hella traffic. anyway. chilled at my bros dorm for a bit and went online on his roomie's fast ass comp. so we left there like around 530 ish and i was diesel b/c his crap was heavy! anyway.. too bad i tried taking another route to avoid the hella traffic.. which threw me off and got on the portsmouth exit instead of va beach.. all was well though.. i knew how to get out and whatnot.. so from there i took the exits to chesapeake and then to greenbriar and then got to my lola's house in salem woods at like 6 to visit my cousin, christian. hes too cute. he can talk now and its adorable. anyway. called liz to try to get a hold of chris but no luck. left there at 620 ish b/c i thought chris was going to pick me up for the show. too bad when i got home.. i talk to liz again and she tells me that he called my lolas to look for me but i just left! so i try calling him but his phone is busy.. his cell phone is off.. and he just logged off. so i didnt get to go to the show. :( and we had a plan too. its all good. now im at home.. doing nothing. ray called up for a bit to talk for plans for manana.. talked about some weird topics too. how we got on them i dont know.. the world may never know.. cherry mae embers and sario creek are our popcorn names. as for plans? possibly get together of the bang-a-rang at zachs. who knows.

(the leg BENT in HALF!) anyway.. yeah.. we moved to the other side of the pcc. we were ashamed :(. anyway. we kept dancing to the beat like we were oompa loompas. that would have been freakin awesome if they sang that. anyway. during the intermission. me and ray collabo'd and bought a cd. when it was past intermission.. we couldnt find jackie b/c it was madd dark. so we kinda led ourselves back to our wall. then this lola offered us to sit b/c the people in front of her left. she was nice. haha. dr. hipol is one funny man. "EMERGENCY!" haha. me and ray kept laughing during michael camarillo's performance (not at him. just at our side jokes).
"sing wan more!"
"ay. sing por ano-dar hour hah?"
"hoy. ill geeb you a qwar-tar!"
"how about jost ten pennies be-cows we need the qwar-tars por mah jong."
ok. we're dumb.
ANYWAY.
"ikaw" was emotional. we were like. damn couples. miss it? yep. anyway. that was nice. "yes. im clapping." "thumbwrestling" is a good substitute for the real thing. haha. anyhooters. it really ended at like 10:00p. but then everyone was still singing. so we stayed til they stopped again. so i told my dad that i was going to go to walmart (my parents went to watch too) b/c i still hadnt picked up my pictures from earlier. so we left. damn cold va beach night weather. body heat is great. so is the heater. so we went to walmart. too bad the photo place closes at 10:00pm! so no one was there to help us. then we saw brian a there so we chilled for a bit. talked about seven deadly cities and telling people that we have been diagnosed HIV negative. i know. its not a funny subject.. but you had to be there. so we left there at like 1045 ish and i dropped off ray. got home at like 11 ish because we wanted to drive slow for the slow jams. haha. well. thats about it. long entry. long day. peace it like you in the antarctic.

112402 hm. what did i do all yesterday? well i cleaned some of the house for the most part and edited pictures for my mom using my only editing companion adobe photodeluxe while trying to plan for the night. the plan was to watch 8 mile at the 715 show at strawbridge. i tryed calling up everyone.. zach was online so i told him via aim and dana wasnt home so i guessed she was at alexs but too bad no one was answering the phone at alexs.. and i didnt know how to get in touch with rayray.. so i was like double you tea eff? ray called up saying he was at his aunts house and he gave me directions. i hauled it out of the shower at 645 left my house to pick up the bang-a-rang gang beginning with zach at 7 and left for alex's to pick up him and dana. alex couldnt make it b/c he had to stayu home with his brother .. im sayin.. could vince not take care of himself?? im just kidding. so dana just came. we stopped by dana's so she could get an alibi but actually we ended up staying there until 830 cuz we didnt want to get up (we got into discussion). then i remembered that i told ray that id leave my house at 645 to pick him up. so i was like damn.. its 820 right now. so we got up after deciding that since we already missed the movie that we'll just go bowling.. but then we changed our minds to just go to the mall. so we hauled it to pick up ray and randy and i felt bad cuz they were outside. but anyway. they were acting pretty mellow. it was just me dana and zach with the energy. when we got to the mall.. we were still pretty hyped up from our discussion and we stopped by dQ to say whuddup dog? to bubba. then we saw the usual philippines at the usual aladdins castle. and for some odd reason.. we all kinda lost our hype. we didnt really do much at the mall.. everything was closing b/c it was already 9. bubba hooked it up so bless his heart. we ate at sakkios b/c we had the free sample and me and dana were like.. man now im hungry. so we ate there. after that.. everything was closing so actually i made ourselves make a round to see if mystery man was working at either locations.. but he wasnt.. poo. so we left and decided to rent a movie. we went to zachs to pick up a free rental ticket and me and ray started telling the scary story with the two red dots.. but ended up chillin there until dana had to leave. so we all migrated to danas and i called up my parents to ask if i could sleep over. i had to come home to pick up some stuff so when we got back to danas.. dana put on the red light special to get kinda freaked out.. freaked out.. not freak-y.. and we told the story. after that.. dana's dad started kicking out the guys b/c it was past curfew supposedly.. so i took ray and randy back to their aunts house and i took zach back to his place.. man we were scaring ourselves.. damn our haunted neighborhood with the little girl from the ring walking and all those damn stray cats... when he closed the car door.. i just floored it and i tried driving without looking at the road cuz i was freakin out. anyway. went back to danas and we had some deep joints. it was quite the fun. then slept over at danas.
what was it that you forgot in your profile dana?
it smells like ass in here!!!
