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 Cafe 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!
