Follow-up: It was really fun looking back at my old entries. Haha, after 3 hours and 2 vitasoys, I was able to select some fun excerpts from the archives and share them in a single, collective post. And I didn't want to comment or add subtext to the previous post because it would have ruined the essence of it all. Most are self-explanatory, glimpses of my life with friends and family over the span of SIX YEARS. O___O (wowza, where did the time go??) Others, I left very open-ended....

Speaking of time, the one-month checkpoint of having been in Vancouver was YESTERDAY!!! It's been such a wonderful month already and I am so glad I have 3 more months to go! ;D
I lovvveee Vancouuuvverrr <3

[awkward transition]
1) No big deal, but yours truly is finally 21. b^___^d

2) I was recently contacted by my old chess teacher and am now on the girls chess scholarship committee! We are trying to create and offer a $1000 chess scholarship for a girl entering college. Girls just seem to drop out of competitive chess around middle school to high school.....

3) Going to invest in some rainboots tomorrow

4)



Six verses from the end is this statement "They never know unless I write."

2009 to 2003

Here's a quick flashback at some personal favorites.

February 17, 2009
I gave my mom a Vietnamese sandwich. (Lee's)!! Because she likes them so much. I didn't really want to be traditional and get her a flower :P. I gave my Grandma a kiss <3!! And in return she gave me a red envelope! HAHAHAHA Maybe I should start kissing her more??

"Don't stop smiling" is actually my welcome message whenever I turn on my phone. I remember one day, a terrible day, when everything was going wrong. My phone was off most of the day so when I turned on my phone, I saw that message. I guess it originated from my friend when she told me to never stop smiling because you never know who is looking at you. After seeing that message, I forgave my whole frustration and had a great day.

Maggots .. the larvae stage of flies... under my sleeping bag??? EWWWWWWWW.
I didn't know what to do, but I had to get rid of them before Carla came back from the bathroom or else she would scream. So with a paper napkin, I pinched at least 10 of them up.

August 1, 2008
lol then in class, I started dozing away and rocking my head to a beat. (not really) it was just really difficult to stay awake. Anyway, I started writing yiddish and when I finally realized what I wrote, it said "No Toothpaste" And I'm in a Statistics class. WTH.

June 4, 2008
Gar, it seems like just yesterday that you went to MY graduation. But really, that was about 2 years ago. Now that it was your time to graduate high school and my time to watch you get your diploma, I was thinking hey.. 2 years later, you'll watch my graduation again. And 2 years after that... I'll watch YOUR graduation too. :) :)

May 21, 2008
All the devils in the world couldn't think up a more painful thing to be in love with someone who doesn't love you back.

"Remember Melissa, you are amazing!! For this instant."

He told the students of a story of how the city was going to limit marijuana in the city from 100 to 6. (iono, some random number). And as expected, a TON of people showed up to the town meeting to debate the limitations of marijuana. Then he says: "I wish people loved salmon as much as marijuana."

alex: I wish we were kitties
me: yea? oh, I guess that will be cool. We get to snuggle and cuddle! meow meow
alex: yeah. and I get to live 9 lives with you.

Sometimes it is really hard to talk to someone about my problems because when I do have problems, writing on a paper or in my journal has always been effective for getting better. It might be that I've written so much in the last month that I don't want to write anymore. I'm breaking down.

August 16, 2007
Since the grass was wet from the sprinklers, we layed down in the middle of the basketball court and just watched the sky for about 2 hours. I guess there was about 20 different shooting stars. If I knew we would be lying there for 2 hours, in the cold, I would have brought a extra jacket. But I didn't and I caught a little cold :( Looking in the sky with friends nearby to huddle with is definitely something I will never forget about this summer.

David Yup and Alex were in my dreams the other night. We were all dogs.
 
I was a cute maltese.
Alex was a German Shepard
David was a Husky.
 
Alex and David had become zombies and they chased me around the park because they wanted to eat me! There was so much barking and panting in my dream. Alex finally caught me and I was very sad and I whimpered. :(
 
He surprised me and said, just kidding! I am not a zombie, I am here to protect you! We ran away from David and we lived happily ever after, THE END!!!! ;)
 
I love happy endings :D

Deep inside, I think I want to become a writer that can write fantastic books. Maybe even be a popular kids story writer! It would be super cool to have a book as famous as the "Hungry Hungry Caterpiller" Maybe everyone wants to be semi-famous with writing. Is that why we write in blogs for the public to see?

March 7, 2007
I am so excited for this weekend. It is going to be full of laughter because my better half is coming?
Starts with a jay, ends with essica...?

January 23, 2007
The possibility of me transferring to another UC is.. a possibilty!! I do not think I could stay at Santa Cruz for another 3 years.

October 05, 2006
WOOO FIRST RAIN! I actually did it. o_O. IT WAS SO CRAZY AND FUN. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
 
I lost my ID CARD. (not during the run though) My key to the cafeteria and to my dorm building is lost. How do I eat. I'm so hungry :( :( :( How do I even get home??! Good thing my Mom gave me a mooncake. I love mooncakes. :)

October 19, 2005
Oh yeah, did I mention that I got
 
70 missed phone calls last night,
plus another 11 this morning,
and 11 more today??

Today I played chess with my friend. He's a lot younger than me, but he's very smart. I haven't seen him in four years, and now he is eight. He said that he's been waiting to play me since the last time he saw me. My aunt commented that I became a different person when I played chess- mostly more talkative.

I don't really want school to end. Not yet. I was talking to some senoirs, and then they were kind of happy and sad. They're happy to finally leave Mills. But then, Mills has been such a safe place for them.. now they are really going to be out on their own.

April 16, 2005
OOH! GUESS WHY I AM ALSO HAPPY! I went to Striats Cafe today with my Dad and I was a good girl because I helped out with some stuff! so he took me to the kitchen for ice cream. The person in the kitchen was so nice and gave me five scoops! What a nice lady! ^__^ YUMMY! I love eating ice cream. <3<3

Dad: Do you want the good news or bad news?
Me: Bad News
Dad: Your report card came in..
Dad: -And you got a C in Physics.
Me: I know that, and the good news..?
Dad: You got an A in cross country.

I roomed with alana, margaux, and vicky. Alana is my stand partner <3, and shes the one who woke us up each day by turning on the tv to the loudest of sesame street and barney. Margaux is really random and she reads too much. Vickys the crazy one who threw a phonebook at the tv. - And starbursts and shoes. She also hits people in her sleep.

I JUST WANT TO DANCE

People don't dance no more,
They just stand there like this,
They cross their arms and stare you down and drink and moan and diss!

I thought that this rain would wash away these pent-up feelings but every drop that hits my face makes me more miserable. :\
