So excited!

I'm going to Long Island tomorrow to chill with some friends. I'm too excited. But I'm also tired. Reeeeeally tired. Handball was semi-intense for me today. I still need to run more.

I finished packing and all I need to do is shower and sleep. Then waking up extremely early. Then getting on the train early. Then...yeeea. We'll be on our way.

I should update more tomorrow, if I'm not too tired. There'll be an update on Sunday, most likely. Now, if only I can stop talking to you. Oh dear. Someone is being dramatic again.

let's clear up this confusion.

i don't want a repeat of history.

Shopping at QCM = fun!

Today was an epic day. I loved it. The group and I (Louise, Johanna, Howard, Max, Ron, Sam and James) all went to QCM for shopping. We've been planning this for about a month? We had a set date by last week-ish.

In the morning, we all stopped by Louise's place 'cause she said she was going to cook us breakfast. The R was extremely slow this morning x_x ! She had rice. And milk. AND SPAM. So I was good. I ate a lot ._. I've been eating a lot since...I don't know when. Where did I get this appetite? Well, at least if I burn it then I'm good :3 !

So we helped Max pick out 5 shirts. He needs jeans though. He and Ron didn't know their sizes...how sad. I think Sam and Howard were the only ones. -shrug- I asked Sam and just estimated. I was close! I was only one size off for Max but exact for Ron. Yay. Oh, Max's shirts are so not him...just not in a bad way o-o? He's always in white. We got so many colors for him. And Howard. Ron got all white. I think Sam only got black and something else. Johanna got a couple of graphic tees from AE and I got one from Aero. I also got a pair of jeans and a fluffy sweater. -hugs-

After we ate at the food court, Ron, Max, Sam, James and I had to leave. Like good little children. We took the train straight from Woodhaven to...who knows where. It was a hilarious train ride. I don't regret not taking a nap. I think a bit after we finally reached Manhattan, Max had to pee. He drank who knows how much iced tea. After than, Ron had a slight urge but it was uncontrollable at around Court St. Yea, we took the R all the way 'cause everyone was too lazy to get off to switch to express.

It's almost Atlantic and Ron and Max look and sound like they were in such pain. "That's it, Max. I'm going over to your place for the bathroom." I was pretty tight then. There was an N train approaching Atlantic with our R. I got ready to leave-the first one to get off the train-but the stupid N train didn't wait for me and the doors closed before the R even stopped. "Yay, more moral support!" Lawls. I ended up being the last one to get off the R. How stupid.

Max and Ron had this whole plan set out: power walk, don't sprint. Sprinting/running makes it worse. It was hilarious. When we were approaching Prospect Ave., Max's stop, lots of people were crowding around the doors and Max said, "Oh shit, so many people." He and Ron somehow made it to the front of the crowd and we saw them sprint for the exit. it was funny as hell. They said no sprinting but I guess the urge was too bad. From what I heard, they ran to Max's house, ran inside and nearly exploded. Ron came out of the bathroom sweating. LOL.

After they got off the train, Sam had to pee. James and I are just like: oh shit. He only had 3ish stops so it was...better? Well, he had to wait for the D since my N came first. Ha. James got off at 53rd and I got off at 59th. Yea, last person to get off the R. Could've been the first -_-!

All in all, today was a good day. Some pics are up on Facebook. I'd put them here but the process is too long. I'm sort of in a rush as it is. My internet nowadays is extremely limited. If I stay downstairs too long, I get scolded. For what reason? Who knows -_-...

I'm tired. I think I should do my exhaustion test tomorrow if I can. If not, then I'll just follow the week 2 or week 3 schedule for the next couple weeks just to keep fit. The push-ups are getting harder. The sit-ups are still okay for now. Must lose abdominal flab. My goal for the rest of the summer. I see handball for a whole week after Louise leaves. Lawl.

Dang, I wrote a lot today. Well, I should. I sort of want to write more posts like these. It means my day was interesting and not the same old same old shit. Well, I hope I get ot write more soon. I love days like these with people like them.

Thanks, guys. And now good night (;

Hottest day of June!

Weather forecast for today: high of 92 but it feels like 100. BOY, DID IT REALLY. It was a stupid day to wear a new top and go hb. I sound like such a girly girl, but no. The new top is hard to move in unless I'm used to it; it was my first time wearing it today. I think today, I lost at least a gallon of water in sweat. It was so nasty and humid. Worst of all, we were playing in the blazing sun. Pros: I get to work on my tan/hb skills (if I have any). Cons: "Working on my tan" = getting burnt -> having parents question where the heck I've been all day.

So, what were we doing on the courts so early in the morning? Simple: it was the last day of school. Prefect was only from 9AM-10AM but most prefects were let out by 9:30AM, if not before. I was let out around that time but I had to make a trip to my counselor's office; I had a little card that said I was to attend summer school next week. I failed Physics Lab but passed the Regents Exam. Thank goodness that was a good enough reason for her to remove me from the class. It still took a while and there was not ventilation...not to mention it was extremely crowded. As you've guessed: not a fun experience.

Afterwards was a bit of a blur and drag at the same time. We hbed in the morning/early afternoon. It was extremely hot, humid, and sunny. We played until Sam came from Midwood and left soon after to Seaport. There, we walked around. Johanna and I had a fun time playing hide-and-seek but we thought Louise was mad so we stopped. Turns out there was a slight misunderstanding on our part. My bad. But things are cleared up now, so it's all good (:

After Seaport, we went to Borders. It's a bookstore across the street from Trinity Church. We were kicked out for playing cards and chilling in the AC. Yea, first time I was kicked out of a bookstore. -shrug- Didn't matter. Not like I was ever going to go there again :P We walked to Chinatown from there. I took the same route as last summer: from NYDH to CT. It was just a bit father. We continued walking to the TenRen on past Canal St. The AC felt good, the drink was satisfying, and the company was just lovely. All in all, it was a comfy afternoon. I really enjoyed myself and I'd love more days/afternoons like this over the course of summer.

I should end this post right here. Yea, I was supposed to do this yesterday but I sort of fell asleep (as always).

Last Day of Classes!

Yes, as stated in the title, today is the last day of classes! FINALLY! Now summer, come to mee ~ I got a volunteer thing at my school. Lame, but good enough. I'll have something "productive" to do and my parents won't be on my back about it. -Sike-

My mom just found the wet clothes from the beach and she's wondering where they came from. I told her we went to the beach after the picnic. She just scolded me for not telling her ahead of time. The scolding was pretty pointless because I came home 3 hours earlier. Isn't that enough? Really? That just ruined my mood for the night. Now she wants me to give her the number of the teacher or staff that I'm helping out at my school. The thing is...I don't want her to find out the hours and my off days. I'd be pretty mad if she did and I wasn't able to fulfill my summer dreams. Someone's going to get hurt, and it won't be me.

So, moving on. Many classmates of mine cut today. I mean, it's the last day and no teacher in their right mind is going to teach anything, really. Well, no one but my math teacher. That was one of the few classes that I did not cut. I cut every class after Calculus though. I didn't plan on it...I just winged it. I thought that I was going to cut after 7 but that was it. Turns out I was cutting P.E. too. -shrug- Nothing much happened in those 3-ish periods. We just sat around, talking, chilling and waiting.

After 8th period, when Max came out from his math class, we headed for 51 for handball. Louise and Max couldn't stay long so we walked there...in the blazing hot sun. I guess it was okay; I got a chance to tan my deathly pale legs. We stopped by McDonald's before we went to handball. Oh, I finally gave Max his panda back there. We got to 51 after we ate and found Sam sitting in a corner of the court. We (Louise, Johanna, a bit of Howard, and I) watched a couple of games and then Louise had to go. Howard was in a...not-so-great mood by the looks of it so I let him play. Uh, Johanna and I were then in an awkward kind of gloom. Meh. Ron and Victoria and a friend came soon after Louise left and they jogged around the block. Ron stayed to play.

Sometime later, Johanna and I played. I love to play and feel an adrenaline rush but I hate it when I screw up my right arm. Right arm, not hand. I used to screw up my hand but now it's my whole arm. I don't mess up my hand anymore thanks to Pandaddy's gloves. Yea, doing it for his embarrassment. It's called payback. And it's also because I can (:< ! Okay, so around 6PM-ish, Louise came back and she sat with Howard while the rest of us continued to play. Oh, Ron and Victoria left by now. Along with their little friend.

All in all, it was a somewhat productive afternoon. I got to "work out" with Johanna a bit and we just chilled together. I was fine with that. If I asked Louise and Howard, they'd say something...stupidly fishy. Let's leave it at that D:< !

Okay, I'm getting a bit tired and my room is getting a tad bit cold. Maybe I should blow-dry my hair and get some sleep. I have a feeling I'm going to be really sore tomorrow. That's good.

Um, I may or may not post after this. Maybe just a short "just thoughts" thing. Possible. Depends on how tired I am. Or how bad my "insomnia" is.

Hopefully, it's not too bad. It won't be if I don't dwell too much on...stuff.

Memorial Day repeat at Coney Island

This year's Memorial Day was really worthwhile. Although I missed my curfew and I made my parents furious, I didn't care. I had a fun time with some friends at Coney Island Beach. We all needed that day to let loose and relax. It was the end of APs and everyone was stressed with school, life, and love. Now that it's the end of the school year, we wanted another day like that. Parents are becoming more stressed about summer plans, since we're juniors and all, so we needed another day like Memorial Day. And that's how we got to today.

We planned a day to go to Coney Island and today was perfect: no rain and tons of sun. Only thing was: what are we going to do there? We is referring to the follow: Louise, Howard, Johanna, Max, Sam, Ron, Victoria, Will and I. I think almost everyone has an animal but Victoria and Will. Oh, me too. But the thing is, everyone's more hung up on me getting an animal. I guess it's cos we're closer? We chill a lot more? I don't know why but I know it's a good feeling. Oh goodness, I'm sounding/feeling all cheesy again. I can't even imagine the end of senior year. ):

Louise, Howard, Johanna and I arrived at Coney Island station at exactly 11AM. We would've been there a bit earlier if the train didn't delay right before the last stop. I made about 20 sandwiches and Louise helped me carry some. I even brought along a cooler! It was a small old-ish one, but it was enough. We met up with Ron and Victoria at the station so all that was left was Max, Sam, and Will. Sam was the first one of the three to arrive and later on, while waiting for Max, we decided to buy an umbrella. Sorry, a parasol. Eh, same difference. We were nine people and the umbrella was $10. I paid for Johanna and Max (he wasn't there yet and Johanna only had a 5) while Will paid for the extra dollar. We have a new red umbrella for keeps. And guess who got to bring it home? Who out of the whole group lived the closest to Coney Island? That's right. Yours truly.

We were stuck at the station, clueless as to what to do. We decide to head for the beach first because that was the reason why we were here: to get some sun and sand. We laid out the towels and failed at one of our many attempts to get the umbrella to stay up. We also attempted beach volleyball. Another fail. No one was able to draw straight lines and the court was later split in half (thanks, Max) so it was a four-way fail beach volleyball. But it was fun (:

Soon after, I went into the water with Louise. Damn, did she have a good laugh. So, stupid of me, I didn't bring a change of underwear. I thought I was only going to wet my feet and get sand everywhere so I only brought a change of clothes, but no underwear. I told myself: don't get my shorts wet. They got wet. Then I said: nothing above the waist. I drenched myself from shoulder down. Later on: hair should stay dry. My bun got wet. Finally: new glasses, please stay dry. Louise splashed me and they got wet. D: And what was she doing this whole time? LAUGHING HER ASS OFF. She's a mean Piggy.

After the water fail, we ate and continued beach volleyball. I was dripping because of my shorts so I just sat and ate some crunchy sandwiches. Om nom nom nom. Yummy. At some point, Louise and I got up to go change. The bathroom was a long walk away D: We cleaned up when we got back and headed for Luna Park/the places around it. The guy with the sexy voice (according to Max) wasn't at the water-gun game from Memorial Day, but the same guy was at the basketball game. So, let's see who won what that day. William and Co. won 16 fishes in total. He exchanged it for one hermit crab and four goldfish (which we gave away later on). Howard, Ron, and Max each won a tiny puppy doll from the basketball game mentioned earlier except Howard won more so he exchanged it for a white bear (which Louise is very happy about :3). Max also won a white monkey from a dart game. He said the monkey was ugly and the dog wasn't a panda so he gave them both to me. Now they're sitting on my bed...in a pile with the Pikachu that I won last time. He spent over $15 to win the dog, which is kind of funny. 3 basketballs for $5. He failed so bad. "You better take good care of them! Don't throw them in a pile!" Uh, too late for that ~

Oh we also went on the Wonder Wheel. 6 out of 9 people went. Which was stupid 'cause Johanna said she wanted to go earlier but she didn't ):< ! So it was just Howard, Louise, Max, Ron, Victoria, and I. The seating was going to be awkward: one car held only four people. So we decided on this: Howard, Louise and I on one and Ron, Victoria, and Max on another. Right before we got on, Howard said, "Look, we both have a third wheel." Thanks, Pandaddy. Thanks. D:< We went for a swinging car and it was fun. Every time the car swung, there was a nice breeze and we were so high up. The view was nice. You can see all the way to the beach and the station and everything. I even saw the Verrazano Bridge! It was exhilarating.

After all that stuff at Coney Island Beach, it was only 3:30PM. Everyone had time to kill but we ran out of ideas. So what do we do? We all crash at my place. Why? Cause I'm closer x_x! Not everyone came over though; Sam and Will left for home and everyone else came over. and we played MJ. My mom didn't mind too much; she wasn't home yet. My sister was a bit bitchy as usual. Meh. But we had fun. Max was feeling up the tiles; he was trying to guess what tile it was before he looked and got most of the characters wrong. Ron didn't have as many fails as last time, so it was okay. Louise and Howard left early 'cause she had to be home by 6. Or before.

It was getting late when Ron and Max said they had to leave. "I'll give myself a 10 minute leeway," Max said. So he was going to leave at 6:10. Before we knew it, it was 6:20. He kept going: 6:15, nah 6:20, etc. Johanna said that it was going to be extremely late before anyone was leaving. So Max suggested they stayed for dinner. We laughed. Later on Johanna was saying how it was going to be 9PM by the time they wanted to leave. Max suggested a sleepover. Another round of laughs. All in all, it was a fun day.

They left around 6:30PM. My fridge was somewhat raided. I'm missing two Cokes and some milk. Don't ask about the milk, ahaha.

There goes the post that I was supposed to put up yesterday but I fell asleep. I may or may not do one today. I might be really short :x Depends on how wide-awake I feel D:< !

I guess that's it for now (:
