2 things I learned from playing a drinking game to Scream:

1. More people died in Scream than I remember.

2. Apple cider beats alchy any day.

Snapshot

There's something about taking pictures that just captures my heart. I love the colors and designs that can mold a picture and make it unique. Yet most of all, I love the pictures that are taken on a whim because those are the ones that you remember the most.

Sake

Had me some adventures today! Dim sum, sake, and oysters. NOM.

Ok so yea alcohol isn't my cup of tea but the white peach sake was surprisingly good! I would still pick juice over sake, but overall, it wasn't so terrible.

Second day of PHAT Camp.

There was the craziest fog walking home from practice. A car would be driving down the street and it looked like a giant ball of light coming at you.

Opa!

Happy 1.11.11!

Went to George's today with the crew (minus Darrell). Hey it was pretty good! (especially for someone who isn't a huge fan of Greek)

I really liked the cheese on fire. PUAHAHHA. Maybe I just like fire XD

In case you can't see, the pan she's holding in the picture is on fire. OPA!

Home

Home has never looked so beautiful.

I realized that, in the 8 years I've lived at my house in Brea, I have never really appreciated the vast yard that my house sits upon. So as I took out the trash today (which is something I also never do), I turned and looked out into it. The late afternoon sun was shining down through the trees and washing over the grass. It looked like something out of a postcard. Beautiful.

Chimerican

It's no big secret that I don't like Chinese food. But what the REAL secret is.... is that I love Chinese food in China. You see, the difference is that here in America, it's hard to find authentic Chinese food. Just to reiterate: no, orange chicken is not real Chinese food.

So today, I went out with my mom and one of our family friends and we got some of that rare REAL Chinese food. And man was it BOMB. It even came with the small, crowded, noisy restaurant. How much more authentic could you get?

Magic

Dear Disneyland,

I guess I just don't understand how you can never get old. You're always changing, always morphing into something more amazing, more magical. Every time I go I'm dazzled by the sheer size of everything, from the minute details of the rides to the grand scale of the shows. And guess what? You've done it once again.

Even at the ripe old age of 21, you never cease to make me happy. I rode all my favorite rides, lost my voice screaming just for the hell of it, took some attractive looking ride pictures, whiffed some giant turkey leg, spent a shitload of money on theme park food, and wowed me with your brand new World of Color show.

Disneyland, you are magical.

Janda

You know what? I really like spending time with you guys. Ok so sometimes Jason zones out or Andy talks to himself or I make weird faces, but I think we always have a good time. So I've coined us as JANDA.

And I know you'll both miss me a whole bunch when I leave so we better hang out a lot this semester.

Day 3 of Las Vegas trip with the crew.

Sleep is amazing. Not just in the sense that it feels amazing, but after taking my Psychology of Sleep class, I've learned that sleep truly is amazing. So in my exploration of the amazingness of sleep, I missed out on food and an entire photoshoot.

But man was my sleep awesome.

Thirst

Day 2 of Las Vegas trip with the crew.

Even with a city girl like me, Vegas is the one city that I will always be overwhelmed by. Everything is just so incredibly... extravagant. But as we went through the Bellagio and walked by a random wall that had water flowing down, we all had to go and touch it. We are, after all, merely infants in comparison to the rest of the world. We yearn to explore.

At the bright young ages of 21 and 22, we are thirsty.

Laugh

Day 1 of Las Vegas trip with the crew.

And it's amazing. I've realized over the years that with the different groups of people that I spend time with, I really do enjoy the company of these particular ones. We laugh, we cry, or in my case, both. And even though I've drifted a bit over the past few years, I know that they will always be there to welcome me back.

Bosley

The chimes of 2011 remind me that this is the real start to my life. My undergrad life is over. I can no longer hide in the shadows of my structured, college-driven path. Now is the time for me to go out there and make something of myself.

So bring it, world. I'm ready to take you on.
