So I figured, this very moment was the perfect opportunity for me to update this journal.  I know, I know... I've been lagging it... but school is almost over. Phew!  And Tuesday, I took my AP Spanish Test and it was alright.  I hope I did well enough, to get at least a "3"...  ahhh, that would definitely be great.

Well this past week, I've been ( Read more... )

Sometimes, If I had the opportunity... I would escape from reality to a place of euphoric bliss.  That's how I feel.  In my depressed states, I just wish I could drive off somewhere far far away and never return.  Don't get me wrong, I love life... but there's always things that just bring you down whether it be friends, school, relationships, etc ( Read more... )

This fool (that is, me) hasn't updated for a week... and I couldn't careless. Dang, time sure does fly. I can't wait until this week and the following few weeks are all over. School needs to end already. By the way, I hate economics with a passion. And I thought I hated government, psh... was I wrong...

Until next post, <3 John ( Read more... )

Today was a lot better than yesterday.  That's for sure....  Well to summarize yesterday, I took an AP Economics test... and I bombed it like no other.  Uhhh!! I was so frustrated that I wanted to shoot myself.  I guess studying for hours didn't pay off this time, which effing sucks.  Anyways, on a brighter note, I was one of the very few people to ( Read more... )

And so, reality has hit me.  The stress has actually been taking it's toll.  Ahhh!!  So anyways, these past few days, I haven't updated for the following reason: Staff Appreciation Week for ASB.  Oh man, I've been stressing about that ever since last week... so I can't wait until it's all over (the planning, the preparation, and the actual event ( Read more... )

Today was such a LOOOOOOONG day.  Having all 6th periods on Monday is the worst (even though classes are only 45 minutes long).  Anyways... today I received a note from Erica that said:

"Congratulations John! You've been selected by the Class of 2004 for the following: 1) 'Most Spirited' 2) 'All-Around Viking' and 3) 'Most Intelligent'"

Whoa, who ( Read more... )

A.W.A.K.E.

working on some research for the controversial issue, "Minors Tried As Adults."  I'm pro for the most part; however, to me, it wholly depends on the seriousness of the crime committed (i.e. murder, rape, etc).  For the past 7 hours, I've just about had it with my research.  Ugh! I'm so frustrated that the sources I have are so useless ( Read more... )

I'm going to be sporting my UC Irvine Shirts and Sweater at school just like everyone else.  Now I'll feel "special" cause I'll get to represent my future alma mater.  What now suckas!

UC IRVINE ANTEATERS... you know!

<3 you, John

And so... the highlight of my day was... Visiting the

UC IRVINE CAMPUS

with Travis and Trisha for "CELEBRATE UCI" day.  Even though it rained (and was extremely cold), that still didn't prevent us from going...  Anyways, as we drove by the campus, I was just amazed how beautiful and clean the campus was.   There, Travis showed us around and I was ( Read more... )

STRESSED about a few things coming up... such as AP Tests, Economics Final/Statistics Test, Debate/Research Paper, and Staff Appreciation Week (like I've mentioned before in previous entries).  I was about to seriously breakdown today... I'm frustrated and apprehensive about basically EVERYTHING.  All I know is that I need to end this year with a ( Read more... )
