Pushed when I should have pulled

I apologize to those that I have pushed away because I was too busy with school, work, etc. I lost sight of what truly matters in life and now I need to get my act together. It's not about the letter grades and your GPA. It's not about the college letters and competition. It's not even about how much money you have in your bank and what you're able to buy with it. It's about what you actually learn in your classes and from those around you. It's about doing what you love and pursuing your passion. It's about your own self-worth and what you value in life. It's actually all about LOVE.

I'm going to tell my parents I love them today.

Brenda, I appreciate you and you're beautiful inside and out.

Siblings, I hope you both are happy with your lives because you both are good people who deserve good things.

Sugar and Spice, no matter what college you guys go to, your characters will take you far in life and I have no doubt in the success you guys are capable of acquiring.

LSK girls, always there through thick and thin, love you girls to death.

Matt, you have the best human heart I know. You're selfless and caring. I wish the best for you.

Quan, you've been through everything. You're a strong and bright person. Remember when Anh Cuong said you have a lot of potential? I absolutely agree.

Acquaintances, peers, and strangers,

I thank you all for what you have done for me or will do for me. Whether it be acts of kindness or bullshit that you give me, thank you.

xoxo,

jess

Ballet

Ballet is the only form of exercise I have been receiving lately and I must say, it's quite the work out. I'm trying to tone up a bit before I get my belly piercing in March.

Two field trips coming up
March 19th - SF Ballet
April 1st - SF Exploratorium

Coolness.

May 6th - AP CALC EXAM
May 7th - AP LIT EXAM

Double coolness.

F.I.N.A.L.S

Fuck. I. Never. Actually. Learned. Shit.

So, I'm a couple of days away from spending two hours (four for calculus) on each academic subject to test my knowledge and determine my final grade in the class. The thought of it gets me sleepy. Ranked most concerned to least concerned"

CALCULUS
AP LITERATURE
PHYSICS

Yawn, my grades are unfortunately borderline so I guess I need to study...

AP LIT - 89.37% I totally had an A- but this stupid bible unit we're on is killing me.
ECON: A-
Physics: A-
Ballet: A
CALC: B

I need to do well on my finals or else my grades will drop. Whatevers.

My brain feels mushy right now from all my ap lit homework so I'm going to go to sleep.

Webcaming is fun! F- U- N-

2009, this year is MINE

Hi =)

Whoa, holiday break was really something.. and now 2008 is over and 2009 is here. I am truly excited for the changes and events that will take place throughout the entire year. From 18th birthdays to graduation and even the start of college. I've always been an advocate for change and just the thought of it excites me.

Ahhhh, I'm feeling optimistic about the new year. March will either be the best or worst month of 2009 depending on my birthday and the acceptance/rejection letters for college. Honestly, turning seventeen last year sucked. People suck at showering me with love for my birthday =) But that's okay I'll still shower people with love for their birthdays. Brenda's birthday is over, then now there's Monica's, Stephanie's, Thao's, mine, Pauline's, and Myleen's. Whatevers, March 26th, 2009.. is the night I will learn if it'll be Berkeley or Davis... either way, life's going to be good. Oh, life is good. People are annoying but life is good. ^_^

Oh, a freshman in my physics class told me "you know what, you're really pretty." Hehe he's a cutie.

Well, it's 10:10. I'm going to call it a night. School is exhausting. Yawns

xoxo,
jess
