not reviewing for finals

I have to say I had an awesome weekend, with a few set backs.

Friday I got a job at a lawyer's office in Hollywood. It's cool though. 10 bucks an hour, under the table, I get to set my own hours, and basically miss traffic. That is always a plus. I'll just be doing assistant work, which is quite easy. Apparently, the lawyer charles, has just taken over another lawyer-who has lost her practice-work load, so they need someone to sort all her crappy ass files. Just organizing, filing, and answering phones. Not to shabby at all. He said if I like it there may be opportunities for me there in the future and that's always a plus.

Afterwards, I headed to Huntington to see my sister and my nephew. Damn, my munchkin is just growing so fast. I can't believe it. Every time I see him, I feel like I have missed out on so much of his life. He's so smart and beautiful, he amazes me. He is still learning how to speak, so when he calls me he says "nana," which I am assuming means nina. That day I was laying down, and he came down and started to snuggle with me. I love little man so much. I still don't know how the hell I am going to leave him for nine months. When I left, he started to cry because I was leaving. He had his arms out calling for me saying, 'nana,' I just about cried myself. I miss him already.

I got to S.D. around 8ish or so and went over to iris'. She taught me how to play the piano. Well it was an introductory crash course in piano for dummies. I have to admit, that shit is hard, but I loved every second of it. Damn when I become rich, I am so buying myself a piano because I really loved it. So now, thanks to iris, I know how to play Michelle Branch "One of these days," the beginning of Shai's "together forever," "chopsticks, little mermaid's "apart of their world," and "jingle bells." I am awesome. Haha just kidding. But I do have to say that I learned pretty damn quickly for a first timer.

Then I did a little teaching myself the next morning. I taught iris the basics of driving stick shift. She only stalled twice, which is not bad at all. It was fun though, going around the school in circles. Good times. After the morning drive we went to lolitastacoshop for a California burrito. Damn I swear it was so damn good! I wish there was a lolitas here in the lbc.

Then we watched Honey with Ron. The movie was alright. It just seemed a little bit too unrealistic. Yeah, it's a nice idea, and maybe dreams do come true, but uh not like that. What made it all the more annoying was the fact that there were a whole bunch of kids up in there. In particular, the kids behind us, they just wouldn't shut up. Clapping, kicking the back of our seats, and crying. I was getting so annoyed. I'm sorry, but when I was their age, my parents would never tolerate that kind of behavior from me. If I were those kids mamma I would have given them a spanking. After the movie, we went to walmart and I never knew a place could be so crowded. We asked a lady with a heavy Spanish accent where something was and she said "hhhardaware" It was damn funny.

Afterwards we got ready and headed to marcel's neighborhood. We saw nelson, and headed into his place first. I started my drinking there, with two bottles of rolling rock, followed by a shot of hypnotic, than a session of the maryjuwana, some more hypnotic, half a bottle of Malibu, and anything else I was able to get my hands on. I just have to say I had a really great night. Although I could have done without the bruises that I somehow accumulated up and down my legs, I had a really good time. Got home around 4am and fell asleep.

I spent Sunday and Monday trying desperately to recover. I woke up with a hangover, but as soon as I took some alieve and had another california burrito, I was feeling a lot better. All I was really suffering from was lack of sleep.

Ever since thanksgiving break, I have not been on the ball. I think I lost the ball a either on the way from school or going to my sister's in Glendale, because I am just over school. Before, as sad as it sounds, I somewhat enjoyed school, but now I think it's just gone on for too many weeks that I am just sick of it. Just call me the master procrastinator.

I went to the jimmy kimmel show to watch hoobastank perform. It was great. I have a new admiration of Dough and the guitarist. They were definitely working it on stage. When we were waiting in line to get into the concert area, these obnoxious people got stuck behind us. They just spoke so damn loud and kept on bumping into iris. There was a girl within this group of 5 guys and it wasn't until I looked at them that I notice she was a girl because her voice was so damn deep. I know I am mean and I'm going to hell, but too freaking bad. I guess to make up for the annoying people, God placed this really hot guy with a lip ring next to Iris and I. He was really good looking and he had a really nice smile and the lip ring was just sexy on him. I just anted to slap that ass. Hahah no just kidding I'm not dirty like that… well sometimes. ;) So yeah Hoobastank played five songs, two old, three new, which reminds me I need to buy the new c.d. They were great live.

So I may have failed my calculus test today because I went to hoobastank, but I had such a great time I really don't give a f***.
