Officially 16 !

So I wasnt able to come on here on my birthday because .. well I dont know. Lol. I kept holding it off hoping I would do something Sunday night. Haha! But anyways on my birthday I just went to church & stayed home. It was okay, received cute nice little texts from friends & phone calls from family. It was gooooood.
Monday, I was still getting in the hang of things. Lol. Getting in the hang of being 16. Hahaha. Monday, my grandma, mom, aunties and sister went to Chinatown in LA. My grandma's currently visiting from Rhode Island & wanted to go to LA to see how everything is now. She wanted to go to downtown LA & visit our old house. So we went to Chinatown & it was okay. Lots of walking! Ugh! But it was fun though, whenever I heard music, I would always dance. Because thats just what I do! Lol. I dance whenever I feel the need to. Or just want to! & whenever one of us would say something about my dancing & how Im so amused with everything, Id just laugh and say, 'HEY! Im 16 now!' Lol. Good timesss. So walking in Chinatown got pretty boring after awhile, and my grandma wanted a milkshake so I bought her one. Everyone else was waiting near the jewelry and phone stores there on the benches. So I met up with them and seen this paperback life-size model of Obama, so of course, I got up and was like 'HEY! Its OBAMA!' Lol. So I ran up, all excited, and wanted my grandma to take a picture. Haha. Everyone else there just looked at me like I was nuts! Haha. Like 'does this girl know hes not real?' It was so funny though. After grandma took my picture, she wanted one too! Lol. We had fun acting like we met Obama & got a picture with him. She was just laughing about how she was gonna show everyone back at home that she met Obama! We didnt do much at Chinatown just shop then stopped at this noodle hut. My sister & I went off to buy her shoes, and I ended up buying a pair of my own too. I got a pair of all white Vans. Their cute(= After Chinatown, we went back home, but passed by downtown & where we use to live in LA. It was okay. Grandma was pretty impressed with how things changed & how they upgraded.
Then Tuesday came, & it was back to school. School was fine. We have finals this week so we spent the day preparing for our finals in my classes. After school I went to my friend Sophia's and waited to go to mutual (church]. We went to go eat at El Pollo Loco first though, because its like 'tradition'. Only because we have a church friend who works there & hooks it up for us! Lol.
After that, we went to church & had our youth activity. The girls did skits on how we can act positively instead of negatively on different scenarios. It was all very fun! I partnered up with my friend Kiana and we did how we would react if we heard our bestfriend was talking about us. So Kiana was the bf who was 'supposedly' talking about me. & our negative way was me confronting Kiana by wanting to fight her because she was talking smack. Lol. & our positive way was just to confront her by asking her & discussing it with her. It was all fun though because everyone was laughing! After church I came home & did homework to get ready for finals.
Its wednesday, & i feel pretty good about finals. I dont think I failed any of the two I took today. Thank goodness. I had algebra and biology today. They were okaay. But tomorrow I have history! Ergh! And PE, but Im not stressed because PE is stuff we already know & we dont dress out. So Im happy. Lol. Well I guess thats it for now. Im home, got outta school early & I think Im going to take a nap before I start doing homework. So buhbye! Take care! Thanks for reading!

God Blesss

The Day After & The Day Before

Its the day after my Sweeeeet Sixteeen, and the day before my actual birthdaaay.


LASTnight was SO MUCH FUN! AHH. SO MUCH WORK PLANNiNG & ALL THAT. iM SO EXHAUSTED thoe! my body feeeels sooo tired!

But anyways. Last night was good. Pretty much what I expected. After school, I went shopping and got my tiara. It was soo cuute! I had glow in the dark nail polishh tooo. Ouuweee! Lol. A long BEAUTiFUL blue dresss. My hair was half up, half down. In curls. White cardigan. Pearl earrings & necklace.
We had a DJ sponsored by my uncle & his girlfriend. It was okaay, not great. But i couldnt really complain because his computer crashed the night before trying to download some more music for meee. But then my friends came to the rescue & played their ipod. Lol.
About 100 people showed up. It was good. Everyone very supportive of my big daay. Took pictures w. most of the people there, auntie toook them actually. & Im still waiting for them to be posted up.
So at first, it started off with everyone coming in& picking out masks & getting necklaces. the DJ was playing & everyone just mingled around. We danced for a little, here & there. It was fun. But boy, were my feet killing me! Well, we could only have a DJ from 7-9 because it was a restaurant, & they have their own band that plays around thaat time. But luckily enough, the band wasnt there at 9 but a little after, so we got to have some american music for a little longer. After that, the food was servedd, & everyone ate & i was last. & I barely ate & had ANY meat! Lol. But then the cambodian music came on & everyone danced. OHH& i forgot we blew the cake! Lol. We had 3 cakes. & i didnt have any! Mom had the mic & was giving her little talk & TRYiNG to be funny. Lol. After the cake was served & everyone ate, then we danced. Lol. I was like first to dance, because it was the modizone =) The cambodian electric slide..!! BOMB time. & we all just danced for the rest of the night & took pictures. Its just one of those things, that youd have to be there in order to know how much fun we had. Definately, made the best of things. So thankful for everyone coming out & being there with me. Thankful for auntie & all her effort with helping with EVERYTHiNG! Thanks to mom & dad allowing me to have the party & pay for ittttt. SO THANKS FAMiLY!&friends. LOVE YOU ALL TOO MUCH.

It was BEAUTiFUL! & I am sooo thankful for them taking time to make it for me. I havent wrote my thank you emails yet, but I figured Im going to write it out and have my auntie give them my letters. Out of sincere thanks.

My friends loved them, thought they were SO the BUSiNESS. Hahah. Passed them out this week, and hopefully everyone shows up.

Back to School..

HAPPY NEW YEAR! A little late, but still appropiate (=
So its been almost a week since Ive updated! Sorry guys. But nothing too exciting has been happening. And I dont like coming on here unless I have something to write about.. but anyways! Its the New Year & New Beginnings!
To start off the New Year, I went to a New Years Eve dance in Cypress wednesday night.. it was pretty lame. Actually, I had fun, but the DJ was lame.. lots of old songs youve probaly never heard of. Lol. The dance was from 930 until 1230. So after the dance was finished, the youth at my church & our bishop went to eat out at Dennys. It was really fun. We do it every year after the New Years Dance. After eatting it was maybe 2 oclock? So we all got dropped off at home. The first day of the year & I did nothing. I stayed in my room the whole day. While, my auntie had a little get together with her friends. It was pretty boring but cool at the same time because I got to see my cousins. Boring most of the time though. Friday I didnt do anything. OHH & I forgot to mention, my moms in Utah until Tuesday, so thats why Ive been home with nothing to do. Lol. You would think that I would be out & about, but no, I stayed home with my little sister so she wont be lonely. Haha. Saturday? Saturday my auntie made pho. Well Cambodian pho. And my dad came over. We hung out for a bit then he had to go home to get some sleep for work that night. So me & my sister were bored once AGAiN. Weve had like a week to clean the room, but always put it off.. just because. So Saturday night, my friends told me that they wanted to go to LB Town Center, & I didnt wanna be home, so my sister & I cleaned up HALF the room & went. TC was okaay. Nothing too exciting. Just got able to hang out w. friends and have them meet my infamous little sister. We walked around for the most part then made our last stop at the arcade. It was fun. Playing all those games! & Racing on those motorcycles. Cool Stuff! Then today, Sunday. The usual, went to church. But today was different. Our schedules are all mixed up now, due to the new year we switched times for the congregation to meet. And since the other two wards at our building are now combined.. are schedule is mixed up. Usually we have sacrament, then sunday school and then Young Women. But today we had Young Women, Sunday School, then Sacrament. Totally backwards! & totally weird! Lots of people were complaining before, about how the schedules are all weird & confusing, but I guess this goes to show that we are being tested. Heavenly Father is testing us. To see if even with all the confusion & complaining, will we be obedient and continue to keep our faith and attend church regardless. Surprisingly enough, will sacrament so late, a lot of people showed up and were there today. It was a beautiful sight to see, everyone being obedient and following our Savior.
Church ended at 4 today & there was a baptism that followed at 5. So we stayed, it was good. Baptisms are always good. Seeing people being welcomed and becoming a member of the church. After the baptism, there was a potluck. Can I say "MM, MM. GOOOOD!" Lol. & that was basically my new year. No rough spots. So far, so good. & thats how Im going to try & keep it.
Ill keep you posted on what my new years resolution will be. As soon as I figure them out. (=
I guess thats all for now, its almost midnight & Im not even a bit tired for school tomorrow. Back to schoool again! Ahh. Long class not enough time for lunch.. here I come!


"Imperfection is beauty; Madness is genius, and its better to be absolutely ridiculous then absolutely boring."

Heres to a HAPPY, FUN, ENjOYABLE NEW YEAR! Lol.

Thanks for reading. God Bless <3
