Speak Easy

Man, Peggy S’s such a slave-driver. She threat­ened to never talk to me until I update. So now I guess I have to. But what to write about? I guess I’ll cover Sunday…

Hmm… woke up at 7. Hopped online to find that Peggy S was still up. She had pulled another all-nighter and had just fin­ished her project. I told her to take a nap before Amber W’s grad­u­a­tion, but she insisted on stay­ing up to make a poster for her, too. Got ready for my long day and bummed around online, because my mom was going to stop by on the way to tak­ing my sis­ter to the air­port to give me my ticket and talk to me about some fam­ily stuff.

Fin­ished up the fam­ily busi­ness at 10:30, and hur­ried to Kinko’s to print out my project. I noticed that the printer they have there is the same exact one my dad has at home home. Too bad I didn’t have time to go home and print it myself. Any­ways, he told me the pic­tures were a bit pix­e­lated, so I ran home and tried to touch it up as best I could. Got back there and gave him a higher res­o­lu­tion form of the project, and he told me it would be done by 1:30. It was 11:45.

I hur­ried over to cam­pus, hop­ing I could still make it to get a pic­ture with Amber W out on the lawn after she walked. Got a great park­ing spot and ran around the Pavil­ion a cou­ple of times, but didn’t see any­one I knew, so went to Hunan’s. Saw Peggy S and Jackie H drive off as I made the turn out of the park­ing lot, so I knew I made the right call. Stalked them all the way down­town. Lunch was cool, except I don’t think Amber W’s mom is par­tic­u­larly into Chi­nese food. And pos­si­bly was over­whelmed by the Asian in her life.

After lunch, went back to Kinko’s and added my project to Peggy S’s. Then we went to Jackie H’s to pass out for a bit, since we couldn’t get into the actu­ally 2 PM grad­u­a­tion cer­e­mony. Went after, though to take pic­tures out­side again. Met Kitty K’s fam­ily. The genes are strong. Just like Jenny L’s fam­ily. Peggy S gave her project to Thuong T and went home. :neutral:

A bunch of us went to Dos Coy­otes and Coldstone’s after. Alice C, Drew M, Jackie H, Jen L, and I split an Ulti­mate Bucket. aBB man­aged to dis­turb small chil­dren the vicin­ity with her dirtiness.

Oh no, I got creamy white stuff on myself!”

- Alice C.

Uh… do you real­ize what you said?”

- Us.

No, not at all. Now I’m putting these yummy nuts in my mouth!”

- Alice C.

Good lord!”

- Us.

Moth­ers were quickly drag­ging their infants away from earshot. We went our sep­a­rate ways after we killed the bucket… I went with Alice C to 49er video so she could use my account to rent some movies, and then I went home. Tried to cheer up Peggy S for a bit, but it didn’t seem to work. Ran­dom stuff online.

Some peo­ple went to see Bat­man, but I was too tired, and didn’t feel like pay­ing full price again. Ended up tak­ing a nap that lasted until 1:45 in the morn­ing. Talked online some more. Finally passed out for good around 4:30.

Tell Me I’m Wrong

I’m bored and broke. What to do? Hmm… sounds like post­ing time! :)

Woke up at 5:30 on Sat­ur­day because Kinko’s opens at 6, and I was going to get ready for my day and then go over there to print out my project. Peggy S wasn’t done with hers, though, despite the fact that she had stayed up until 5 AM work­ing on it and passed out unwill­ingly. She was sup­posed to take Ian R to the air­port, too, but I made her take a nap before Thuong T’s grad­u­a­tion, and took him myself, instead.

Got back and made sure every­one in my car was going to be ready, then Diana Pai came over, and we picked up Amber W and Peggy S and headed to cam­pus. The cer­e­mony was… eh. Speak­ers could have been bet­ter. But we can’t all get Wear Sun­screen. Thanks again to Kitty K for the ticket! Con­grats to Jeremy J, Linh N, Kee­gan K, Thuong T, Jenny L, Bao N, Alice W… I’m sure I’m for­get­ting a bunch of folks. It was the first grad­u­a­tion I had actu­ally gone to this year, and it made me sad to see so many friends leav­ing. Espe­cially folks I knew from high school and the dorms. Oh well. Next year. Or maybe the year after… :neutral:

After the oblig­a­tory pic­ture tak­ing for days out­side, went to Thuong T’s grad­u­a­tion lunch at Davis Noo­dle City. We seri­ously took over the place… I think APhiO had every seat in the house. The food, though… I think I could have made it bet­ter myself. And that’s say­ing a lot. But hey, I tried a new place in town, and now I know. After that, headed over to Chap­ar­ral for Alice W’s BBQ. I was pretty full, so only had a slice of cheese­cake. And then a slice of the rasp­berry choco­late mousse cake that Jen L, TJ Y, and Aywon N got for Thuong T. Played ball in the street with Mike O for a bit, but it was windy. And I hit a car. (The balls are foam, so noth­ing hap­pened, though.)

Was kinda sleepy, so I went home and took a nap. Talked online for days after that. Wrote a cou­ple of posts in between dis­tract­ing Peggy S from fin­ish­ing her project. She mocked my non-existant love life that I men­tioned in my bit­ter post. And made ran­dom racist comments -

My back hurts. I wasn’t sit­ting right, I guess. :(

- Peggy S.

Aw… you need a back brace or something.”

- Me.

Ew, no! That’s what my dad uses. And the Mex­i­cans that work at Home Depot.”

- Peggy S.

Why you gotta be racist? Every­one who works at Home Depot has a weight belt.”

- Me.

And the Mex­i­cans have it more!”

- Peggy S.

I still don’t get what she means by that. That girl… :shakes head:

Any­ways, passed out around 3:30.

Fire In The Rain

Try­ing to keep the moral of my last post in mind, but some days, I just get locked onto the neg­a­tive. I need to take my mind off the now, and what bet­ter way to do that than writ­ing a post about Thursday?

Hmm… I don’t remem­ber the morn­ing very well. I do remem­ber that it rained all day. Which threw off my sense of time all day.

I know I went online. Talked for bit with Peggy and a cou­ple of other peo­ple. Worked on a cou­ple of dif­fer­ent projects, but didn’t get much done on any of them. She was sup­posed to be study­ing between finals, but kept leav­ing me ran­dom IMs. And I was away from my com­puter for some rea­son. I don’t remem­ber what. I wasn’t sleep­ing this time. I might have been watch­ing movies. I guess it must not have been very impor­tant. (If I was with you dur­ing this time, please don’t be offended! My mem­ory for these posts has been get­ting worse and worse lately. :( ) Oh, I think that was the day Eddie C and Will watched AvP. Hor­ri­ble movie, by the way. I sat around for part of it, but couldn’t take watch­ing it a sec­ond time.

Any­ways, Peggy picked up Amber and rolled by after she got out of her sec­ond final. We went out to eat at KFC. Quote comes from our din­ner con­ver­sa­tion. Oh, keep in mind Peggy and Amber were sit­ting on one side of the table, and I was across from Peggy.

Hey, Pedro’s stick is too small!”

- Peggy to me, whlie her hands hap­pen to be under the table.

I’ll get you a big­ger one.”

- Me.

Huh? What stick?”

- Amber, look­ing under the table.

Damn, Amber. You make any­thing and every­thing dirty. Just like how after that, the girls started har­rass­ing me with Amber’s lit­tle pur­ple squirt­gun, and she called it “bukkake.”

After din­ner, went back home. Talked online for a while. Played a game of Literati. Then it was time for slightly older plea­sures. Picked up Amber and went to Café Bernardo’s. It was so packed, the bouncer wouldn’t let us in at first. Then we finally got in after stand­ing out in the rain for about five or ten min­utes, and we find find APhiO was just a big hud­dled mass because all the tables were taken. More impor­tantly, the bar­tender wasn’t mak­ing proper wikis. He was using sub­sti­tute indregients, and ran out of cher­ries for gar­nish, too! Weak sauce. I ended up not get­ting a sin­gle drink.

After a bit, every­one decided to migrate over to Cantina’s. I went home instead. Was gonna go play with Peggy, but she was tired, so we just talked online for a bit, and then both passed out.

Now to find some­thing else to do… or else I’ll be forced to watch all of the old The Tick car­toon. I found my CDs again, but some of the episodes are low qual­ity. :(

Oh, and this pic­ture is for Peggy, since she said she’s never get­ting mar­ried. Look at what you’re miss­ing out on!
