[Dec. 23rd, 2006|02:16 am]
it's interesting how far my life wanders before something jolts me back on track. i'm really prone to letting my priorities drift... and when i finally recover them, they're all mangled and weak and i'm left nursing them back to health. this is what moms are for.

it's also interesting how much time i'll let pass before i commit myself to putting anything down in writing. this has been somewhat of a problem for me as of late (hence my non-existent live journal updates... oops). to any of you who actually read my posts, or have noticed a their recent disappearance, i apologize. (i have a feeling there are very few who fit into that category.)

anyway, i'm currently sitting in a hotel room in phoenix. christmas two years ago was my last visit. i still remember it pretty vividly, in fact, i remember updating livejournal from the hotel lobby on christmas morning. hm, that's kind of pathetic. two years ago, at this time, i was just beginning to get to know casey and scott (who i've now completely lost contact with), i had just recently relinquished erin over to mike (who are still together - how adoorrrable), and westmont still sat quietly perched on some distant horizon.

now? well, now i'm 20, a sophomore at westmont, and in about a week i'll be arriving in europe, where i'll be spending the first 5 months of 2007. holy hell. i have a feeling this coming year will bring some mighty big changes. well, i guess they all do.... but, this time i'll be living in europe! i'm studying in lithuania for four months and then backpacking to wherever my little heart desires after that. i'm really looking forward to visiting russia. and expanding my world view. and freezing my ass off. (yes, layers, i know.) i'll be with ashley and jen, so good times in store for all of us i'm sure. i guess my only concern is how the three of us will manage in a foreign country, drunk, with no language comprehension. ehhh yikes. i guess i'll have to claim my usual role as the "mom" of the group and take some responsibility ... and make some sacrifices. all in a days work, right?

well, i could really say a lot more about how my first semester went, like how i've been gifted with an incredible group of 6 friends (my family away from home), or how i manged to pull off straight A's, or the fact that my romantic life continues to disappoint, or how my friends from high school have almost entirely disappeared (thanks, mike, for hanging in there), but i really don't have the energy to get into all of that at the moment. right now i'm just really concerned about the fact that i have to wake up at 7 in order to figure out how i'm going to order a camera on line so that it will arrive before i take off for europe. i'm an idiot for waiting until the last minute, especially during the holidays.


i hope everyone has an enjoyable christmas... and i plan on updating more frequently, so be prepared.

updates in the life of a ghost [Oct. 8th, 2006|01:12 am]
i'm a little upset with the fact that i don't document anything anymore. i have a terrible memory; everything i don't write down ceases to exist. i much rather prefer my life happenings to float around in cyber space, so my disregard of livejournal as of late is rather disappointing.


i have a good month and half to make up for, but i suppose i'll just have to settle for the major highlights:

this year is going wonderfully. all the insecurities and tensions from last year have melted away. i'm living with ashley, again, and we managed to get a room right next to jen and kelly which was well worth the trouble of moving all our crap after we'd already unpacked. my dorm is, well, old. the layout is way different than last year, more secluded and quiet. socializing takes more effort but i'm enjoying the extra privacy. the sulfur smelling water and random lice outbreak have been the only real downfalls thus far. ew.

my classes are all pretty fun, except for history. i can't stand my history class. such an incredible waste of time. new testament is really interesting and i'm loving my jewish-american literature class. i'm currently reading a chaim potok book that might be a new favorite... i was crying over it about an hour ago. water aerobics can be a pain sometimes, but for the most part it's pretty entertaining. we always manage a good laugh. i'm also enrolled in the reading in the community program which means i get to read to old people once a week. most of them fall asleep. it's quite an experience.

i've officially declared myself an english major and religious studies minor. ideally i'd love to double major, but i'm too behind on credits. everyone that told me "don't worry about choosing your major right away, you have plenty of time" is a liar. or maybe i'm just too lazy to make it work. who knows.

i'm very excited to announce that i'll be studying abroad in Lithuania this spring. i've already paid my deposit and bought my plain tickets so it's a done deal. i leave california on december 31 and don't return until early june. it'll definitely be my longest span of time away from home. jen and ashley are coming also. it ought to be a life-changing experience. the freezing cold weather might destroy me, but besides that i'm really looking forward to it. more details coming soon.

besides what i've already mentioned there isn't a whole lot going on. i'm home for the weekend, which is probably the only reason i've made time to update. this semester is really racing by. i'm doing my best to make the most of it, and so far, i couldn't be happier.

that's it for now. hopefully i'll manage to post more frequently, but until then, thanks for reading -

1 for the money, 2 for the show... [Aug. 25th, 2006|11:44 pm]
[hearing |radiohead]

well, i guess this is it; the final few hours at home before i head off to conquer year 2 at westmont. i'm actually rather excited. i think this year has a lot of potential, and i'm looking forward to starting out where i left off.

as far as this past summer goes, well, i guess it was pretty productive. i set a lot of personal goals at the beginning of the break, and for the first time i can remember, i actually managed to accomplish everything i had set out to. it really is a wonderful feeling to look back and see success in areas i've continued to fail in for years. i feel like i finally have some bearings on my own two feet. i'm more confident in myself, and far more secure in my relationships. i've finally harnessed some self-discipline and self-control that i think will come in handy. i just hope the footing i've gained this summer doesn't crumble as soon as school starts. right now i have hope for nothing but improvements.

just for the record...

things i accomplished this summer (both mighty and mild... hey, even the little achievements count, right?):

+got 1 new piercing
+shot a gun for the first time (and a shotgun, at that)
+embarked on my first (two) real road trip(s)... without my parents, that is
+lost 20 pounds and have finally managed to develop some healthy eating/exercise habits
+managed a full time job and earned $3700 working at the hotel... plus an extra thousand or so in savings bonds
+applied to spend my spring semester in Lithuania (acceptance pending)
+climbed half dome in yosemite - 19 miles, quite a feat
+got my brother hooked on some quality music
+created one piece of artwork (nothing special but at least something nice for the dorm room wall)
+read 8 books, in their entirety.
+visited hawaii for the 3rd time
+quit biting my nails
+realized my parents are real people (and amazing ones, at that)
+reinforced a few relationships, and let a few others gracefully slip away


maybe it just feels good to see all of that in writing, that way, whenever i'm feeling down, i can look back on this summer and remember how much ass i kicked. yeehaw. hah. but in all honesty, i've enjoyed this summer. my social life was pretty quiet, but it was what i needed to recharge myself and start off this new school year in slightly better condition. i'm more prepared for whatever rough waters lay ahead... i hope, at least. this coming year could take any number of directions, especially if i end up traveling to lithuania in the spring. i'll try to keep you all updated, that's assuming anyone still actually reads this. but for now, i guess it's time to pack up the laptop.

i have an early morning and a promising school year ahead of me. wish me luck?

i'll trade my wheels for wings... [Aug. 11th, 2006|12:35 pm]
[feeling |reflective.]
[hearing |sigur ros]

i've written very little this summer, and now, when i finally feel the desire to write, my fingers cramp up and my mind starts working backwards. nothing ever comes out quite as clearly as it should.

however, i can say a few things for sure...
first, is that yesterday was my last day at the fairfield inn. i'll miss it, in all honesty. it was my little slice of the world right here in orange county. all the crazies, the foreigners, the desperate, the kind-hearted, the angry, the sick, unhappy, dishonest, newly-married, freshly-divorced, workaholics, alcoholics, lonely travelers, proud parents, rebellious teens, and the quaint old couples that wear out their welcome but still keep you smiling. you'd be amazed at how much you can learn about a person just by checking them in and out of a hotel room. and then it always helps to have good company behind the counter to laugh at all the quirky circumstances.

secondly, i should never be afraid of meeting anyone, because it's a rather joyful thing to discover the gift that can result from any chance encounter.

and also, while i've decided that there's some goodness hidden deep down within any individual, i'm losing faith that there is much collective goodness left in the world as a whole...

but maybe more on that later.

road trip II: half dome domination [Jul. 11th, 2006|11:23 pm]
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting


hiking half dome was probably the single most physically challenging activity i've ever participated in. teresa and i really didn't know what we were getting ourselves into, but it was a very rewarding experience.

we hit the road around 6:15 friday morning and drove the 6 and a half hours up to mariposa, met up with most of the team at ashley's house, and gathered all the camping supplies. we arrived at the camp grounds late friday night, set up the tents, and pretty much crashed.
saturday morning we crawled out of bed at 4:30 am and headed into the park at sunrise. we starting hiking around 7:30, and although we knew it would be an all day hike, we were hardly prepared for how demanding the climb would be. we started out slow and rested often, but as the day wore on we realized it was going to take some serious endurance to make it up to the top. the final stretch was by far the most extreme. a hillside of steep stairs and then a quarter mile of cables up the granite slope to the summit. climbing the cables was nerve-wracking and there were some points when i honestly felt that i might slip off and go tumbling to my death (slightly dramatic i know, but keep in mind this was after about 7 hours of hiking and my body was pretty exhausted). the view from the top was breathtaking, but knowing i had only completed half of the journey was not a pleasant thought.
the trek back down the mountain went much faster but was no less exhausting. by the time i finally reached the bottom of the trail my legs were trembling and my knees felt as though they could give out at any moment. we hiked 19 miles total and it took us about 12 hours, including the time we spent at the top. we all felt pretty accomplished, to say the least.
we spent that night at the campgrounds, watched the world cup finals the next morning, and then headed back to ashley's to recuperate. needless to say we were all pretty sore.
i'm not sure if i would ever want to hike the mountain a second time. although a very worthwhile experience, it was painful and extremely draining. i'm pretty sure daniel's parents are my heroes - they're both in their fifties, and they made it to the top and back to their car before we had even hit the bottom of the trail. pure insanity. i do know, however, that i would love to return to yosemite sometime. that park is truly gorgeous.

well now that road trip number 2 is said and done, i just have hawaii to look forward to and then i'm back at westmont. the summer continues to speed by, but i feel as though i'm accomplishing quite a bit. i hope everyone else can say the same.

but for now, enjoy some hiking photos:

oh that sexy uncle sam. [Jul. 4th, 2006|08:12 am]
[currently |fairfeild inn]
[hearing |lobby sounds]

well its 4th of july morning and i'm at work, doing absolutely nothing. the roads were nearly deserted at 6:45 this morning when i left my house. i guess i'm one of the few poor souls driving to work on a holiday.

the 4th of july always makes me somewhat nostalgic. i've always been fond of the holiday despite my lacking nationalism (don't get me wrong, i love living here, i just don't feel the need to get all patriotic about it.) for me, its just the epitome of summer: late nights, barbecues, friends, family, warm weather, the beach, fireworks, and good memories. i had a few memorable years with cameron, and i guess all the good feelings just kind of stuck around, because in all honesty the past few years have been pretty bland. i don't have any actual plans tonight and i'll probably just celebrate with my family and my brother's girlfriend. my parents never foster any kind of strong holiday spirit, which means i'm in for another mediocre night. eh, it shouldn't be all that bad. at least my dad is grilling shrimp for dinner. mmmmm.

summer seems to be speeding by without my consent. everyone's returned home from school by now but i haven't spent much time with anyone except mike and erin. i'm slowly falling out of touch with casey, scott, kevin, and the group. maybe it was all just a phase. either way, i'm usually too busy or too exhausted to motivate myself enough to get out of the house. but who knows, maybe there's still time to redeem my social life. don't give up on me yet.

i'm leaving early friday morning to head up to ashley's house for the second time this summer. teresa will be joining me, once again. we'll be camping in yosemite and have plans to hike half-dome. its 16 miles round trip. this ought to be a fun one.

besides all of that, work continues to be easy, and i've managed to keep up with my diet and exercise schedule for the most part. i'm actually managing to lose weight. i never thought it was possible. hah. but more on my self-discipline later. for now, i'm going to make awkward small talk with kevin.

cheers. and happy 4th.

well i'm working hard at doing absolutely nothing right now. this is the easiest job of my life.

paul and i bought 2 weeks worth of yoga/pilates classes and have we been going almost every day. so far i've enjoyed it. pilates kicked my butt yesterday. i'm a little sore but it feels good to be working out.

besides that, xmen three was not worth the money, the weather's been great, and my social life is continuing to deteriorate. but i'm in good spirits; summer's going well.

well, if fingertips are relationships then I could barely carry your weight. [May. 25th, 2006|08:40 pm]
[hearing |wolf parade]

well i suppose i'm long overdue for a decent update. i'm well into summer now and nearly settled in.

i feel like i should have plenty to say, and i'm sure i could ramble on for hours about this and that but i don't really feel that's necessary. for the sake of brevity, i should probably just mention that the school year ended on a very positive note, and that despite all the complaining i did about westmont through the year, i'm honestly missing it. i've decided that nothing genuinely good for a person is ever easy, hence my transition to westmont. as rough as it was to come to terms with westmont as a whole, i don't doubt for a second that i will graduate without regrets. after just one year i feel like i've really gained a better knowledge of myself, my faith, and i've found some friends i'll definitely be keeping around for a while. as nothing is perfect in life, i still have some qualms about the school, but nothing that wont be worth the fight, i'm sure.

since summer, i've already road tripped up to northern california and back, found a job, and have reignited a few fading friendships.

the road trip was great. teresa and i hit the road early without a map and with little idea of what we'd actually be doing for the next week. we stayed with meagan for 2 nights, spent an afternoon in san francisco, and then headed to ashley's house for the next few nights. we enjoyed the sun, far too much food, shopping, nature, and guns alike. just a good time with the girls i suppose. (oh, and nate was in there somewhere too).

after returning from that little adventure i began working at a 3 star hotel near my house. an easy job with good pay, what more could i ask for? with a full-time schedule my social life for the summer is looking dismal, but a full bank account will definitely come in handy once school starts up again.

besides work, i plan on getting in shape this summer, enjoying time with my family, and doing plenty of reading. so far so good. we'll see how things change once everyone else gets out of school and returns to the deja vu of a summer at home. it really is a strange sensation, existing in two separate worlds. i thought it'd be easy to stretch my mental and emotional capacity in order to embrace both home life and school life... but at the same time i get this ominous feeling that the home ties will be snapping sooner than i expect. we'll see.

i customized my journal layout, and i'm rather proud of it...

well i suppose that's enough for now... pictures anyone? i made a wish but the match never lit )

in view of an intimate stranger [Apr. 27th, 2006|01:38 pm]
from across the room,
raise your hands
from the soft light outlining shadow shapes
against your face
close your eyes
emerges soft sputters, worship whispered past
rolling forms wrapped in rhythm
lift your voice
how is such confidence formed,
then birthed through your form
as you bathe in the waves?
break my heart
watch how the words, they emerge,
bubble from your throat -
thick moans against the wooden floor
rub me bear-chested and breathing
give us this day our daily bread
seek passion, seek healing
seek future, relinquish yesterday
and renew this desire within me

life at westmont is rapidly picking up pace and falling into place all at the same time. how is it that a school year always seems to begin making sense right before it comes to a close? After all the fitful nights and tearful frustrations, i can honestly say that i've made myself a little home here. it still might not be what i had originally intended, but it's probably turned out to be the best of all possible outcomes. my social life has began making sense, for the most part, and although not perfect, i'm so thankful for what i've gained. my roommate and i have grown exponentially closer; i can't wait to continue on with her next year. and all the spiritual growth i've undergone this year has really shown me just how empty i was for the majority of high school... which would explain quite a lot. i know there are plenty of trials and growth still ahead, but i've also come to realize that the most painful of experiences always leave the deepest, most meaningful impacts - it's worth it.

i'm actually surprisingly hesitant to head home for the summer. i've fallen out of the loop with most of my friends from home, and i'm not sure how well i'll mesh with them all at this point. i don't doubt there will be plenty of odd adventures and the like, but once again, i'll be the lonely wanderer drowning in all the romance... sometimes it still sucks being single at home.


but anyway, here are some pictures to pass the time: oh say, do you remember? )

well, i'm back at westmont after an easter weekend at home. After dropping casey off at UCLA i made it back to campus around noon. the weather was gorgeous today, and despite my fair complexion and years of of sun experience, i managed to burn myself to a crisp at the beach. i'm in a significant amount of pain at the moment. i haven't had a burn this bad in a loonng time. i'm pretty much a walking cancer stick. ahh what was i thinking!?

but anyway, the weekend was good. it went quickly, but i feel like i accomplished a fair amount. i saw thank you for smoking and v for vendetta, both of which i enjoyed thoroughly. easter was low key, but still what it needed to be. and my family continues to rock in general.

i guess it's crunch time now, with only eight more days of classes, then finals, and then i'm out of here for the summer. i can hardly believe my first year of college is almost said and done. i've grown a lot, that's for sure. but at the same time it feels like it went by faster than it should have. either way, i'm sure the summer will have some surprises of its own.

the days are spinning away... [Apr. 4th, 2006|11:45 pm]
i really do wish i updated more often. but is there really that much to document?

life has been sufficiently busy since my return from spring break, but for some reason i have a hard time recalling what exactly i've done. spring sing definitely happened, i know that for sure. i sacrificed a last minute trip to san francisco in order to dress up as a dirty cockroach and hiss around on stage. hah. actually spring sing was quite entertaining. my parents and brother came up, but i feel like i hardly saw them at all, thanks to excessive last minute rehearsals. our theme was "under the bed" complete with performances of michael jackson's "man in the mirror," enya's "only time," blondie's "one way or another" and the all time classic, "gangsta's paradise" (all with our own lyrical revisions, of course). page girls won "best prop" for our over sized vacuum, but besides that we came home empty handed. the page guys put on an awesome show, but unfortunately the judges didn't agree. lame.

besides that, it's pretty much school school school. my mood has improved since my post-return depression; i guess it always takes me awhile to get back into the swing of things. my friendships are still kind of off and on, but ashley has sort of kept me plugged in socially. something occurred to me today: i don't have a single phone number of a guy who goes to this school, and not a single guy at this school has my number. considering i've been here for almost an entire school year, does that seem odd to anyone else? actually, i don't think odd is the right word; i'd have to say it's more pathetic than anything. not that a phone number really determines anything significant... but still... how does that happen? oh yeah i forgot, there apparently isn't a single guy here that wants to spend any kind of quality social time with me. i guess that explains it. i just haven't managed to develop a single meaningful relationship with anyone, and at this point, i'm not really sure how to. i feel like i've come close with a few guys, but there's just some social barrier i can't seem to overcome. i don't know how to make any progress without really forcing it... and guys here tend to take a girl's initiative as a signal that they are looking for a husband... or something to that ridiculous nature. i honestly miss having close guy friends. and i don't talk to casey/mike/kevin/scott/cameron nearly as much as i used to. maybe i'm just lacking a social life in general. who knows. this is a depressing subject and i don't like talking about it.

i always end up updating livejournal when im either desperately bored or hopelessly desperate. gross. i promise that i've actually been in pretty good spirits lately. life is good, really it is. there's just always that little something that keeps you hoping... and complaining.. you know?

spring break continued... [Mar. 17th, 2006|12:19 pm]
so i'm sitting in casey's dimly lit dorm room at UCLA. my body feels desperately mal-nourished and slightly sleep-deprived. i slept on the floor last night and i'm still wearing whatever clothes i arrived in... so good. his roommate is sleeping and casey is in class and i'm just killing time. scott and company had plans to drive up for the afternoon but i have a feeling our plans will be canceled due to sickness/exhaustion on casey's part. i don't mean to sound like his mother or anything, but he really doesn't get enough sleep. casey, take care of yourself, dammit. :)

we drove to venice yesterday, but ended up driving in circles for about an hour first. whenever casey and i try to go anywhere we always get freaking lost. despite the frustration, it was fun to catch up on some long-overdue conversation while we tried to avoid getting stranded in thug-infested LA. but we made it, finally, and that's the important part. venice teemed with desperate vendors trying to sell meaningless crap, as usual, and it was pretty damn cold, but always entertaining. our movie plans didn't work out but i enjoyed wandering around campus and getting a feel for the dorm life. no alcohol involved - probably a good thing.

UCLA > UCSD, sorry mike. although huge and a little intimidating, i really like UCLA, or what i've seen of it at least.

i spent wednesday in san diego with mike and erin. we went to the zoo, which went well for the most part. a lot of walking and animals. yeah, that pretty much sums it up. i guess the day involved a good amount of bad tv and ASL, as well. oh and food. foooooood. i'd have to give the day a B... what do you say, mike?

in summary, i've burned at least a tank of gas in the past 2 days, and i haven't even driven home from LA yet. i'm broke. i'm hungry. but my friends kick ass. way to go, friends.

alright... time to occupy myself elsewhere...

weekend recap: [Mar. 13th, 2006|12:53 am]
[hearing |arcade fire and coldplay]

this is overly-detailed and pretty uneventful, but you've been warned, so don't complain.


Friday: i drug myself to my classes, turned in my english paper, and found out i got the highest grade in the class on my Physics of Music test. I was pretty stoked about that one, but slightly embarrassed when the professor announced it to everyone. my stomach was still a bit uneasy after my post-fast binge, but i guess that was to be expected. i then packed up and got ready to leave. in order to make it to the train station by 4.30, i had to walk through the rain with my luggage, cram onto an overcrowded shuttle, and then haul all my crap up state street to the train station. the line to pick up tickets was huge, and i almost missed the train, but luckily made it aboard on time. there was the cutest little mexican-looking man near me on the train. he had black boots, a black leather jacket, a black cowboy hat with "USA" embroidered on the side and was carrying a huge vase of purple-fringed roses. he seemed almost fictional. he even had an old-western accent (is there such a thing?) and an innocent yet goofy looking smile. i found him amusing. after a very dull 4 and half hours on the train, i met mikey and erin at the irvine station. we went to starbucks and then my house where i indulged in left-overs and enjoyed the goofy movie with my brother and company.

Saturday: i slept in until 12.20 - glorious. Chatted with my grandma, got some exercise, and then met Paul at Pavillions. we bought humus and pita bread and sat in the back of his car and talked for about an hour and a half. always so wonderful catching up with him. i then drove back home just in time to welcome my parents back from their vacation. my mom, brother, grandma and i then left for church, followed by a filling mexican dinner. it was so nice getting to spend some time with my grandma; i don't get to see her nearly often enough.

Sunday: slept in again, but rolled out of bed just in time to say goodbye to grandma, who was headed back to arizona. i then spent, literally, the rest of the day in front of the tv. disgusting i know, but still so relaxing. i watched a few hours of crap, followed by almost the entire first season of 24. that show is so damn good. i cried! i don't think i have ever cried watching tv. i managed to work out for a little while, and then heated up some surprisingly good frozen mexican food for dinner. exciting, i know. i never even left my house today - i'm such a slug. but don't worry, tomorrow will be slightly more eventful.


spring break is off to a very relaxing start, and so far, i'm enjoying it. love you all.
