Aljon's First Month of COLLEGE LIFE ^__^

wattup everyone.. dang its bin a busy first month of college i haven't been able to write a blog in forever.. but now i have a few minutes to spare so lets get this shizz rolling! okay so first of all lemme talk about this weekend..

haha well my friends from Penscaola came over- Jackie,Jen & Ngan.. and i can't believe they made it here in 6.5 hours driving at NIGHT. that bih was goin 117 mph on the road i dunno how they got here without gettin pulled over by the cops.. but yup they got here. and i guess they had a big craving for food at 4am in the morning so i cooked some spam eggs and other shizz..

then the next day .. they got jackie&jen got pierced .. lol their parents gon kill em!  we checked out ucf cuz jen might come here for psychology.. ate at red lobster.. went to asian/viet town.. then went to city walk and mickey Deez. my foot was hella throbbing by the end of the night haha.. well we got back to my apt.. and me&jen went to this FSA/FOB party i guess.. and that was insaaaane!

 it was my first otown party.. and i was hella nervous cuz i dint what to expect..but dAMN it was amazing! lol.. first thing tho.. i went in there.. and all the upperclassmen dragged me and "initiated" me hAHAHAA. pretty fun awesome night.. it was unforgettable :P

well this morning i had a lil "talk" with someone on the fone..and it kinda made me cry/emotional a lil bit cuz of the intensity of it =( but its all good now.. i think? we went to church.. ate at Bento Cafe.. damn i broke an arm and a leg cuz i promise ngan i'd take her out to a good place and pay for it..and WOooh ended up payin for everyone and ew LOL. but itw as pretty good place..

and the professional pictures we took yesterday came out AMAZINg.. it was cheap as hell too! speaking of that i should upload it soon. it was the most randomest thing ever haha.. but i look hella good in demm tho =P well yeah now my apartment is a mess and i actually fell asleep to FOB practice today and i got late but its all good.. i think im really getting better at hiphop dancing tho..they told me im not as stiff anymore .. and i learned the choreography today pretty fast so im pretty excited about that..

well last week my family came over for labor day weekend! lol.. i took them to downtown disney.. asian/viettown.. and my sibzz swam soo many times at the pool lol.. oh we went to the florida mall to and other places.. it was so nice seeing them again i felt like i haven't seen em in forever so even though their "loudness" annoys the crap outta me sometimes.. i kinda missed the craziness of it all haha..

well yup my mom broke my microwave tho LOL.. but i was really proud of myself.. i cooked sausage..eggs.. bacon.. hashbrowns.. waffles.. toast.. and hot dogs for them for breakfast..then i cooked spaghetti with my mom.. i finally proved to myself that i can live independentlaly LOL.. but yeah it was a hella fun weekend ima go home prolly in a few weeks.. oh i got a couch now by the way lol they brought it over.. but  ireallywant a tv..cable..and a dinner table and maybe a couple extra chairs and a computer table.. hahaa.. i gotta get that taken care off..

but um yeah im a "hip hop" dancer now i guess? i auditioned for FSA's FOB= fresh off the beat.. and well after the first choreography leraning day on thursday.. i GAVE up.. i seriously wasn't in it anymore.. but for some reason sunday night i decided that i was juss gon go for it.. so on monday after my rents left.. eddy and johnstone came over and we seriously learned that piece..damn me and johnstone dint think we were gon get in.. but hey we did so its awesome..

 i also joined the Dance Troupe to do cultural dances and pretty much fsa has taken over my schedule haha.. yeah i really love FSA i been feelin so lonely.. but first meeting 2 weeks ago and shit .. and i made so many new friends now so i'm pretty excited abt that.. i bin feeling hella lonely here in my apartmnet anyway haha..oh yeah i helped a guy jump his battery the other day! i feel like a hero :) 

hmm college life is pretty great i guess. i'm used to procrastinating and not having a busy schedule and just staying on myspace/facebook the whole day.. but now my schedule is pretty busy and i guess its a love hate relationship.. i kinda like doing things and well.. all my classes are hella easy i learned everything in hs so yea.. im glad i guess i can relearn some of the things so it can be in my memory y'know? and i really do love having my own place.. and having 'large' amounts of space.. cuz man my room was soo small back in pensacola.. but yeha haha.. i miss my family and friends tho.. but its all good..

well as for as socially in orlando.. its been just AMAZING.. the people here (so far) have been really nice and .. i can relate so much more to them than i could in pensacola.. i dont know i just feel like i can "function" better here in orlando.. and that i could handle a lot mroe stuff here than in pensacola.. and theres actual things to do here.. and a wide variety of people and personalities.. and i really like that..

okay well i really hope this weekend will be good.. cuz someone might really make me happy this thursday =) but i dunno yet lol.. but um yeah i should close this now i'd talk a lot mroe deteails bladi bladi blah but dang i gotta take a shower head to sleep cuz i got classes in the morning.. but so far my life here has been amazing.. i feel like i can breathe a lot more here in orlando..and theres so many nice views/ parks/ and people here..

my "rant" for today though is gon be of the question.. "WHY?"

sometimes i just wonder why this or why that.. why did this happen to me.. or why were you meant for me.. why were you NOT meant for me.. why does this person have an influence in my life.. why can't i be friends with this person? why am i feeling these emotions..why do people keep fuckin me up.. why do i feel like im the only one feeling like this? why am i losing you.. why am i losing everyone? WHY R U IN MY LIFE? ..

and basically.. yeah i realize.. i need to stop asking WHY to myself.. and i should just appreciate the fact that the EVENT did happen.. or that person is in mylife.. and stuff.. i use WHY to try and relate myself to other people in the world.. but u know what? that doesn't even matter because im fortunate enough to have it HAPPEN to me..and not be like everyon else living the same old daily life..

and u know what.. when you really really SERIOUSLY.. like someone.. you need to go for them..you need to tell them how you really feel.. put all of your emotion into it.. find that INNER you.. and SHOW IT.. because if you don't .. then they will never know and you probably won't ever get a chance like that ever again.. there are those people in your life who come to you and you wonder why the hell are they in your life.. i have a unique&weird life.. filled with experiences that is juss inordinary.. but i'ma embrace that..

and just seriously get used to the randomness of it all.. go with the flow.. stop asking "WHY".. and start saying, "THANK YOU" =)  

goodnight everyone. have a good week!

Moving in to O*Town, Florida

HEY everyone! what a crazy week of moving in my apartment and checking orlando out a lil bit more... well this whole week has been amazing .. ive been spending so much time packing and just hanging out with everyone i guess..

lets see i think about the tuesday before i left ngan&jackie took me out to go eat at Olive Garden =) they know i love their zuppa toscana soup they have there its the shit.. lol it was supposedly a surprise with a buncha people but im glad i got to spend it with them..and our fatasses ate about a million tons of soup and breadsticks!

 i got soo fat from that but hey whatever i'm leaving anyway right? gotta party it up! haha.. yeah and basically i really hate packing.. it sucks because once you pack all of your things you gotta unpack it again so what's the point right? but anyways the day before i was suppose to move in it was a LONGG day i was supposed to hang out with felix and everyone else.. but man i didnt get near finished to what i needed to do like update the computers and get the pictures ready till like afternoon..

so right after that i went to nicolles house cuz she said she was in town from washington but SHE wasn't she was still driving here from jacksonville.. so i met up with ngan at wal mart so i can drop off and develop my pictures.. it was pretty fun chillin wid her for that split second lol..then met up with patrick and jackie at her house .. and damn idk why the hell jackie freakin brought a cat to my car she tried to hide it..then i saw it and i was like HELL NO WDF IS THAT! lollll..but yea she was givign it away to her sisters friend or something..

but anyways.. after that went to the mall..and well since i was going to technically be a 'college kid' and u know its gonna be a whole new lifestyle and phase of my life.. i decided to change up my hair a lil bit.. i'm used to getting the i guess 3-2-1 fade cut which makes me look like im in the military.. i tried the mohawk before and it did not workout.. lol my mom told me the first time she saw the mohawk 'CHARLES YOU LOOK LIKE A MERMAN' lol.. what a crazy reeaction..

well so i decided to get a fauxhawk..and i usually get it from mastercuts cuz its cheap but i decided to go to Maxx&Mia at the mall.. and it cost me like $26 + tip LOL. but i guess it was a pretty good cut i had this asian lady she talked and had good conversation with me and i was feeling generous so i gave her a $10 tip.. which is way over the top lol.. but whatever i really like my new fauxhawk.. im sure it'll look a lot better too once it gets longer.. but anyways.. walked around the mall for a bit ..

 OOH i tried that 'GYRO GYM' thing where u spin around and its suppose to relax and help your balance and make you smile.. but man that thing it wasn't worth it.. it was like 3 minutes/ $7 hell naw. haha.. well after that ngan had to go.. so me jackie and patrick went to the beach cuz i wanted to see it once more and then i wnated to buy a pensacola t-shirt..and yeah i got this awesome tshirt "SUN sAND SURF" or something like that.. well after that everyone rampaged my house.. lol..

 lets see it was Me..Jackie..Ngan..Felix.. Nicolle . Patrick.. yup i picked up nicolle and we chill for a bit.. and basically half the time i was getting ready my stuff and the other time iw as chilling..and everyone was juss karaokeing..doing stupid shit on the computer.. chatting.. playing games.. nicolle ate all my food.. LOL..then they helped me pack my stuff to the car.. NGAN CRIED TOO haha.. man it was emotional i guess..

 but for me this whole moving thing.. i'm supposed to be impacted by it.. but i dunno i don't feel as emotionally sad as everyone cuz well i'm gonna be visiting pensacola a lot.. like RIGHT NOw.. and well its only a 6 hour drive.. so yeah well the night ended going around in downtown and with rain pouring down.. it was a good night.. well i obviously couldn't leave at 4am cuz everytone stayed at my house till like 3am so i slept.. woke up.. and left the house like 9:30..said goodbye to jackie/ngan.. cried for a bit.. then went to O*Town haha..

yeah the drive there was pretty fast.. i sped like crazzy and got there in like 6 hrs LOL.. but anyways.. yeah well signed all the leasing paperworks.. and i got my apartment.. the first night there.. lol i didn't know what the hell was up with it but i had NO HOT WATER.. but the maintenance guy came and fixed it and all u had to do was go on the circuit breaker and turn on the hot water switch..supposedly the one that lived there before me was tryin to save money so she turn off the hott water? ..

 but yeah.. i had an amazing place.. it was GINORMOUS.. big balcony.. fireplace.. a huge room... a nice refrigerator/stove.. very clean.. and well yeah.. that wasn't the highlight of the day tho..the highlight of that day was carrying all those retarded boxes up the third floor..

UGH i had about 20 something boxes.. i dunno how i fit EVERYTHING in my car but i did lol..and man carrying each box i was sweating and my muscles and body was hurting.. but im glad i got it finally done after 2 hrs.. LOL after that i just layed down in the corner and talked on the fone and called everyone i was SO tired.. and after that i had to get some toiletries and shit from wal mart.. got some toilet paper.. paper towel.. milk cereal.. toothpaste and other stuff so yeah..then i got a personal pan pizza from pizza hut- hawaiian ^_^ haha.. it was good..

fell asleep.. the next 2 days i just basically unpacked and i guess walked around my apartment.. OHH i have a huge fountain duck pond in my backyard! so thats amazing..and the neighbor beneath me actually came and talked to me and introduced himself he was pretty cool.. and well i lost about 7 lbs the 3 days i was there LOL..

i was trying to cuz i made a promise to myself iw ouldn't jump in the pool till i lost 10 lbs so im almost there.. but yesterday after i got my UCF decal & ordered my books and finished up with the apartment.. i got some boba and i headed home..and now i feel stuffed again cuz my mom cooked a delicious dish LOL.. oh yesterday i went to one of my favorite restaurants-- The Great Steak and Potato company in gainesville! man i love their 'Ham Delight/ Hawaiiann' sandwich there.. i get it with no veggies.. and it has pineapple ham and mayonaise and they cook it right in front of u it was amazing! i was soo hugnry too..and the boba at orlando is awesome...

so basically yup now im back home in Pensacola got here about midnight last night.. and ima stay here till maybe friday/saturday then gotta head back! well that's an update on life..

today im watching G*Force with the bros and teaching ngan how to drive cruise control tonight on the interstate =)...

allright everyone get ready for school cuz here it comes!!! im pretty pumped up and excited ^_^ (besides the fact that i almost spent $750 on books) LOL

OH YEAH : well anyways i just wanna say THANK YOU GUYS for everything for all my friends and family.. for helping me get this far.. for pushing me in the right direction.. for being there for me when i needed you guys the most.. for learning about me.. for knowing what i like and what i hate.. for putting up with me.. for telling me about the good and the bads of me.. for sticking up for me.. for sharing your life with me.. for being involved with me.. for handling my annoyingness.. for all of our adventures.. for the crazy times.. and just for being there.. thats all that matters.. i don't have a lot of special people i keep with me particularly because i'm very picky with everything and i need to be surrounded by those who know how to act right and be the right person i need them to be.. so for everyone who i still keep in contact with .. your very special in my heart and thank you for not letting me go. =)

God,mom,dad,aldrich,jericho,alyanna, nicolle,jackie,ngan,lee,patrick, jen, felix,janjan,nanay, uncles, aunts, teachers, & everyone else that has a major impact in my life =) THANK YOU

Lili's Birthday @ Macaroni Grill

I'M FULL TIRED SORE AND STUFFED!.. dang today was SUCH a long day.. haha i slept last night at around 2am..and i woke up this morning at like 7am.. i dont know i just had a bad time sleeping cuz i bin thinking so much about UCF lately.. i guess you could say i'm getting the jitters and the nervousness.. like i TOLD everyone.. i really really don't worry about everytthing that i have in the future till i'm faced with it..

like about UCF.. i KNEW i was going to be sad emotional and everything when i left or before i left to be on my own.. i knew i was going to get a lil distressed with all the stress of moving out and with all the 'CHANGE'.. i knew it would be a new chapter in my book.. i knew it.. but i just didn't wanna worry about it.. and just go with my FEELINGS.. and my DECISION..and my INTUITION.. that said.. i HAVE TO.. I HAVE TO GO AND LEAVE AND MOVE ON.. its all for the better..

i don't know what the advantages and disadvantages .. sacrifices and gainings that i will attain from this new experience.. but i'm ready to face it.. im tired of being scared for the future.. might as well take it on its horns and try to do what you can with what is UNFOLDED from the future.. y'really have minimal control of it because things can change your life..

who knows. i might die tomorrow.. who knows a tragic family occurance might happen.. who knows my dad might get layd off.. all these 'UNCERTAINTIES' can certainly change someones life and change the direction of EVERYTHING.. so u know what.. i'm gonna try to ignore all of those and try to focus on what i feel like i need to do..that's how i get on with life.. DO what i gotta do.. study hard/ party hard.. be myself and forget everyone.. love God..my Family.. my Friends who are there for me.. what is DONE is DONE..

and now.. being 18 of legal age.. its time for me to take control of my life.. and i really hope these decisiions im faced with will be some good ones.. but anyways.. yup those are just some thoughts i had in my mind last night as i was staring at the moon..

well i woke up.. and dang my mom cooked pancit! it was so good.. ate some poptarts too.. and yup.. basically just played games and texted the whole day lol.. then went to the mall with ngan .. then met up with jackie and went to lilis bday party.. dang i was stuffed our tables were separated too because i guess they dint have reservations.. but w/e it was fun..

yup oh yeah..and haha me and ngan was pretendin today greetin each other like 'HEY HONEY HEY DARLING' lol.. damn and idk everywun like my new gold bracelet i guess.. its the graduation gift my parents gave me and its expensiveeee... $$$$$ .. lol supposedly now i'm so 'HIGH MAINTENANCE' and 'HIGH CLASS' .. wdf? lol

well afterwards yup talked outside took some group pics.. then yea went home.. ngan came over and i guess we were suppose to walk the neighborhood and talk.. but we juss stay in my room .. damn everyone was still awake when we got home.. felix n everyone shudda came over and sang karaoke .. i was surprised it was nearly midnight and everyone cept jericho was still awake but w/e. lol well.. me and ngan looked over yearbook pictures.. chatted..

 then my mom cooked pizza and let ngan taste the pancit (AFTER THE FACT THAT WE JUSS GOT STUFFED) LOL.. but yea.. it was good then she left.. felix was gonna come but we were eating so yea i guess not lol.. lets see.. tomorrow idk im supppose to go clubbing but im so tired and sore and damn i duno.. ill think about it i guess.. then i dunno whats gonna go on for my next 8 days here but ig uess it'll be fun..

 i needa get my stuff packed and straigntened up.. do that alcoholedu online .. get my parking decal.. and damn s0o0o much more.. but i guess im glad im moving in.. but scared at the same time.. eh i hope everything will be okay.. it always is =) .. aiites well ima go take a shower. then go to sleep and hopefully work out tomorrow because im getting fat..

 i needa get skinnier again. damnnnnnn UGHHHH i hate it when i get thesse waves of where i just say ' FUCK IT IM GONNA EAT LIKE A FATASS' and it lasts for weeks and i get lazy to workout.. but it always ends up happening at the end ofs ummer though so i dont know.. but whatever..

Finished Surprises & Boring Movies

WOW today was such a long day.. after waking up to my brothers loud screaming for who knows what.. i got up and yay my mom cooked one of my favorite filipino dishes - sopas! mMMM it was very delicious i had like two bowls then i had a few popsicles LOL..

well after that i got ready to go finish "things" up with jackie! and thank GOODNESS we finally got it done today.. well she picked me up.. we went to taco-bell pizza-hut express (AKA my old job) to supposedly go pick rosalie up..

BUT she wasn't there because she rode home with CHaz and it was a complete waste of an hour of breathing .. but it was nice seeing ms. helen and ms. shirley again LOL.. lets see got home.. and yeah wasted about 2 1/2 hours at jackie's room trying to clean the hell-hole of a messy room she had LOL..

it was like a hurricane in there it was insane! but it was all good.. had an awesome life conversation (random) then patrick came in haha.. then we chilled for another hour doing absolutely nothing but hanging around till we finally started on the 'surprise' haha..

DANG i can't believe we used so much time trying to do this small thing for Ngan it was just unbelievable.. but im so glad we finally got it done.. i bin wanting to get it done for the LONGEST time and yup we finally burnt it..

and got up off our fatasses haha.. lets see we got some Boba at Tudo and YES! they mixed it perfectly this time.. yesterday wehen i went there with my brother dang all i tasted was ICE water in it.. uGH.. then yeah we got some caesar's pizza/ breadsticks and got 'Rachel Getting Married' from the redbox at walmart..and dANG i swear that movie was a complete waste of life..

it was about this girl that came back frmo rehab to watch her sister get married and all this shit happens.. and its SO retarded like there was no real plot..and your waiting for something big to happen but nothing ever does.. and the most randomest crap happens for absolutely no effect.. DONT WATCH THE MOVIE.. but i caution you if you really want to.. youll waste ur money. (good thing we got ours for free at the redbox cuz i know some promo codes)

LOL.. anyways after that patrick took me home and now i'm here.. bout to go shower then head to sleep i guess haha.. it was a pretty LONG but awesome day today..
