MY WEEKEND WITH ROEL...
what can i say? ive never been so happy in my life! even though things didnt work out as planned since i couldnt "pretend" to be at my sister's place in riverside, we still got to spend a lot of time together...more than i had expected actually...
he drove down wednesday night and got here early thursday morning. it was him, and his friends IAN and GINO, and they stayed at his friend ANGELI's apartment near state (cause she goes there). talk about a bumpy start though cause they weren't even out of the bay area when Gino's car got rear-ended in traffic....sucks big time cause his hood is fcked up now. but they still went on with the trip...and im glad.
THURSDAY: i was soo antsy and impatient in class waiting for school to end so i could see roel's ass...by the way i dropped philosophy cause the reading homework was too much to handle for each night along with humanities. anyways..once school got out, i headed over to state to see him...wow...after a freakin month of missing him he was actually right here in front of me...with me. still surreal to me. i took him and his friends to fashion valley to eat and then over to seaport village to chill and walk around. too bad the weather was wack. i had to be home by 5 so i dropped them off at the apartment and they did their own sight seeing at san ysidro and boomers. maan i hated that feeling of knowing roel was in SD and i couldnt be with him
FRIDAY: i went with my sister and cousin Patricia to downtown to do some errands at the VA office and then a little shopping at horton plaza. we met up with roel and them for lunch at Hooters which was cool cause he got to meet some of my family. then we all headed to beautiful La Jolla Shores. good thing the sun came out later that day and it was a GREAT day for the beach. that was soo much fun playing in the water. it was funny cause none of us were dressed for the beach. then afterwards i dropped off my sister and cousin...picked up karren, and with roel, headed to Eastlake for Ruthie's graduation. boring when you dont know anybody...and poor ruthie had to graduate by herself with a class she didnt even know. (long story) so yea..they had fireworks though. afterwards we went to ruthie's house real quick and then ate at lolitas (the new one) with jaime and jesse as well. and since it was grad night...of course ruthie wants to get fcked up. karren had a fake ID so we got some alcohol to bring to angeli's apartment so that roel's friends could drink too. too bad that by the time we got there i had to go home...yup, 12 midnight curfew! so they all had fun without me that night...i basically dropped off my friends...SUCKS BIG TIME! but im just glad roel got to know my friends and ian and gino had fun...of course they thought all my friends were hot, cause they are!
SATURDAY: woke up early to freakin rain! but we still went on with our plans to hit up the Del Mar Fair. luckily it was just cloudy in del mar...it was even humid. that was fun just walkin around and stuff...rode some rides...roel rode the ferris wheel for the first time...haha..it was a nice view....he even won me a dog...we left around 5 cause we were tired as hell...but we stopped by seaport again cause we wanted to get a caricature done...maan that was soo ugly! he gave me boobs i dont have and even put my braces and gave roel a thick mustache...wtf?! then we ended the night chillen in the apartment till i had to go home at 12. sad..sad...SAD moment...cause we knew we probably wouldnt see each other til i get back to berkeley....they left at 4 in the morning that night...glad they made it and got home safe.
so that was my weekend...soo much fun just seeing roel and hanging with his friends and him meeting my friends. hope they had fun. roel is the sweetest guy ever...even though things weren't lookin too good with the trip, he still made it happen. maan...im sad...i miss him...i wish it was thursday all over again... :*(

wow long time no blog! well here goes if you care whats goin on in JENN's LIFE...
friday i hit up MORSE's graduation which was pretty cool....got a little sentimental there. i felt soo old watching and thinking back, remincing how that was me on stage last year. wow...craziness! of course ran in to some morse alumni which was cool. afterwards i ate out with susan and her family. saturday i went shoppin with the family. maan...that day my mom was HILARIOUS! gosh...i love that filipino fobby-ness. then we went to a family party and i played with my cousins and neices. Sunday was FATHER's Day so of course i chilled with the family. we got him a shirt from Tommy Bahamas...never heard of that brand but its pretty expensive. then we ate at Dave and Busters. that was hella fun shit. i love that place...too much fun i tell ya! then that night the Obaña cousin clan got together before my cousin marie headed back to NYC. that was hella cool cause we were ALL there...we were chillen, catching up on our lives, playing with the youngins...had a little family drama session. maan, i swear i love my cousins, theyre like my best friends who i know i can always count on. MONDAY was the first day of school at GROSSMONT. im takin humanities and philosophy and go from 9:35-2:30 straight with a 20 minute break. its kinda hard cause i have waaay too much reading. but oh well, it will keep me busy. i ran into encia which was cool cause i havent seen this chick since graduation. also roel's mom got into an accident...a car getting chased by the police hit her. talk about wrong place at the wrong time. thank God she's ok. but the monterro got fcked....so i figured roel wasnt comin anymore...but he called today and said he was since his friend offered to drive...yaaay roel is coming!! ; >
so that's that....take care ya'll til my next entry. school's got me busy so my entries will probably lessen

today was my grandpa's birthday so i had a little family time...we all had dinner at my cousin's house which was pretty fun. i was practically the oldest one there since everyone else still had school. but i made it fun...we played stupid games and trivia...hahah its funny how i get all the kids excited. my grandpa was talkin about a lot of stuff that made me proud of my family...how all the kids are soo smart and successful. we're all pretty much over-acheivers which is sooo great. he was giving all of us advice..."no one can take your education away, its yours and yours only." which i think is soo true...good thing to keep you motivated

sunday i went to comissary with my mom...hilarious! haha...afterwards i took my brothers and little cousins to watch Finding Nemo at Rancho San Diego. (or Little Nemo as i kept callin it accidentally) it was an "alright movie." there were soo many families and little kids...maan, i swear, it was crazy. we also bought a GRIP of snacks and candy from target...dude, i felt so sick from eating all of that! i had lots of fun embarrassing my cousins...haha...i was talking "whale" aloud......muahahhahaha! i know where nemo is!
