Rogue Idea

well not as much as i was yesterday and the day before.  My legs are feeling much better after doing the crazy plyometrics work out.  the other stuff i’ve done is the ab ripper and shoulders and arms.  Today I will get back on schedule and do Kenpo, whatever the hell that is.  I got up today and my legs aren’t hurting as bad going up or down the stairs but they are still a little sore,  but MUCH MUCH better than yesterday.  My arms are not as sore as I’d thought they would be but next time I do shoulders and arms again I’m gonna do all the reps and maybe more to see if that will work.  Some of the exercises are really hard to do though and I have to put it on slo mo just to see how exactly they are doing it.  I’m thinking of getting someone to watch me so they can help me on my form.  I try to slow the dvd down so i can do it correctly but its hard cause im concentrating on doing the exercise and sometimes the rest of me does weird stuff to try to accommodate.    I’m going to stop by walmart today to get one of those measuring tape things that are just a roll so i can measure myself, i’m tired of measuring with a string and then measuring the string afterward.

I’m also feeling freakin hungry all the time ever since I started, so I’m guessing I’m not eating enough or something.  I haven’t been following the diet exactly though, just sort of ‘loosely’ because I haven’t had time to sit down and count everything out.  So I’m thinking of buying the little grocery list and making the meals they suggest that way I don’t have to count at all I can just eat whenever I’m supposed to and what I’m supposed to.

Yesterday I met this girl to play tennis and thankfully she did not turn out to be a weirdo so we are gonna play again this coming saturday.  Thankfully by then my finals will be over and I’ll be much more relaxed and in the mood to play.  I got my ass kicked though, which I guess makes sense cause I haven’t played in like 2 weeks.  I kind of miss practicing with tommy cause he always showed me what to do and helped me a lot, but i would feel weird calling him up now out of the blue.  Well i have my chemistry final tomorrow so i better go study all day today.  I’m also going to that job interview with that lady later today too so hopefully that goes well and they are not freakos.  I passed by the street that they live on the other day though and they are really big houses so they must be rich.  okay thats all for now

first few days have been kicking my ass. literally. physically. my ass hurts really bad when im walking or even just doing anything. and my legs are all sore and crazy too but my ass hurts the most even though it was a lower leg work out except for a few parts that ar supposed to work your butt muscles. anyways i am too tired to blog about it too much but these are some pictures for my ‘before’ pics that they told me to take. youre supposed to have 6 , two facing front with hands on hip and arms up, two facing back and hands on hip and arms up, then one of your side, and one of a ‘twist’ type of pose which i couldnt really get right. agh anyways im too lazy to type about it, i will later

well i am trying to find a job that is really flexible for me because i have to work it around my classes and my sister’s schedule because one of us has to be home in the day to watch over the youngest one.  its a pain in the ass but yeah i have to deal with it.  in the surge of getting all pumped up about working out i applied at this fitness place (hoping to access to closer gym equipment since UH is 45 minutes away) but unfortunately I applied one day late and they had someone already.  I will apply at another fitness place this coming week to see if i can get a job there.

starting in may i will be on the p90x exercise program.  its going to lst until august and me frankie and gordon are having a little friendly competition on who will get better results.  me and frank are gonna do the p90x thing and gordon is gonna make up his own routine which he thinks will be better than the one p90x made up.  once i get my ripped abs i will beat him up with it! lol just kidding.  but im not in this to lose weight i just wanna tone up all around and especially my thighs and stomach so hopefully it works.  tomorrow im going to take all my measurements and maybe print out a log sheet to write all my little stuff on it while doing the exercises.  im also supposed to take 6 pictures in these poses so i can compare myself at the end.

i have finals the next two weeks so i will probably not be online much since i will be studying hardcore for a while and plus thursday i start my p90x thing and if its as intense as people say it is , its possible i will just be in too much pain to sit here and type but i hope that is not the case.  i have al ot of things to do this week and i hope that i can do good on my finals so i dont lower my gpa anymore than i already have.  alright i am going to go out with my gordon and linda today (and chau, but she said she cant go now) so hopefully i will have a breezy day.  wtf.  i just lost connection and then got it back again.  wellat least it wasnt saving this post or else iw ould be all pissed off.  oh yeah and spekaing of pissed off my windshield cracked again cause a rock hit it on the freeway.  ugh this is already my 2nd windshield so now i will have to move on to my third !

Well yesterday morning I finally went to get my hair cut, I hadn’t cut it since like September so it had been way too long (time and hair).  I got about 5-6 inches cut off and it’s just right on my shoulders right now and I like it cause my head feels lighter without all that hair.  It is a little bit weird though since now in the shower I’m washing my hair and I keep thinking theres more but it just ends so fast. I went to this place and I had an appointment at 10:30, I didn’t even get my hair cut until 11:15.  What the fuck is that about.  I’m guessing that the people before me came on stupid “asian time” (which means 15-30 minutes LATE) and that put everything backed up.  So I was pretty annoyed that I had to wait 45 minutes for a haircut after making an appointment.  Then by the time I was done it was almost noon so I met gordon at tan tan to eat a little before i went home.

After getting home I took a nap then my mom said she wanted to go to this crawfish festival thing.  So we all went with her and we stayed there for about like 2 hours.  The crawfish was a pretty good size and it was okay tasting, i had to dip it into some sauce though to help the taste, the downside is that the sauce was insanely spicy.  After that it was like past 10 already, we went home then back out and watched the Forbidden Kingdom at the AMC.

I think I will be specifically trying to avoid that theater from now on.  It’s mostly mexicans in there and they make all this noise and act retarded (well….i don’t know for sure if its really ‘acting’ retarded or not…).  It was pretty annoying at some parts of the movie.  Then also for the first ten minutes some bastard in the front kept looking as their cell phone and so there was a little white square of light in the view cause it was all dark except for the screen and the damn cell phone.  Also the movie theater had no more butter.  NO BUTTER FOR THE POPCORN.  So I tried to finish the popcorn anyways since my dad already bought it for me, but i ate a good more than half of it before it was pretty sickening.

The movie was ‘okay’.  It wasn’t great and it wasn’t like totally horrible.  I think the thing that didn’t make it good for me was the story line.  It was just not a really good story line and the explanation was really shallow.  The main character is also this guy that i recognize off a disney movie that i’ve seen before.  I’m pretty sure its the same guy, hes this white teenager and he looks..well he looks like a loser.  It sort of fits in with him playing as a guy being bullied at the beginning, but I didn’t believe that he would accomplish what he did in the rest of the movie, he was too scrawny looking.

I think jackie chan and jet li should’ve had more hardcore fight scenes.  It would’ve been better too if the bad guys were much more powerful than they already were.  I also think they tried not to establish one person was better than the other, but I think it would’ve been cooler if one of them ‘won’ the fight they had together.

They tried to fit in a small small small slightly romantic line between the ’sparrow’ girl and the white guy, but i don’t think it worked at all.  it all seemed to be coming from the guy’s side.  It was also supposed to be an ‘action comedy’.  But because of the story line the humor wasn’t really all that good and was pretty slapstick.

After the movie we finally got home past 1 am.  I am starving now because I only had a little bit of crawfish and popcorn last night.

Lately we’ve been getting those little address stickers for free through the mail for various different promotions and organizations. My dad always uses them but I don’t. I was thinking about getting him one of those address stamps to use so that he never runs out of those stickers. I don’t know who he mails but he sends out a lot of mail for some reason. So I was looking online and found a place that does customized date stamps. I don’t think my dad would need a date stamp but the place also does address ones so that is probably what I will be looking at. The prices aren’t all that bad and you don’t have to in bulk (but you can if you want more). I might want to order some fun ones too to use on the stuff I send to Frank, just for fun. The site is called Rubber Stamp Champ and they make personalized stamps or all different types from the ones that self ink to the ones that need the ink pad. They also have some replacement ink pads and ink refill items that you can buy, plus some seal presses and different embossers.

First I updated my wordpress thing (again) and the control panel and stuff is really…ewwww now. the colors are too light i cant hardly tell what is what. and they not onlyt hat but they MOVED the way things were in the page where you write posts? now i have to scroll down to pick my categories but i dont have to scroll down to manage my comments if i decide to randomly do so while writing a post. STUPID.

So thursday I think i tore my toe up a little and it hurt all thursday and yesterday pretty badly. I was in pain for almost the entire time. Thursday it was hurting REALLY bad, it would hurt even if I wasn’t moving it. Yesterday it hurt less if i wasn’t moving it and wasn’t as black as it was on Thursday. So I really have no idea what exactly caused this. I was playing tennis in class when I felt it hurt really badly , like a sharp pain but then it went away. I kept playing anyways and thought it would go away. I didn’t really feel it much for the rest of the game but started feeling it really bad after starting to walk to my next class. When I got to my music class I took off my shoe and sock and everythign looked normal, there was just a lot of sharp pain and I couldn’t press on that side of my foot at all anymore without it hurting. Then me and gordon went to eat lunch and the entire time it hurt pretty badly. By the time I got home i took off my shoes and socks again and by then my entire toe was BLACK. It was completely swollen and bruised looking. It hurt pretty badly all Thursday and yesterday it was almost at the same level of pain but much less overall since I wasn’t moving around all day like on Thursday. Last night I got some sort of bio coolant on it and it started to hurt realy bad but it felt much much better by the time i went to sleep. This morning it is feeling a lot better. I can at least walk on it without leaning on only one side of my foot. I am just glad this happened before the weekend and I hope I will feel better to play on Tuesday

Well after getting my new HP laptop I have been looking for spare parts for my old zombie laptop. At first I was thinking of getting out the little hard drive and using it by itself but now I think I might go get a new one and put it in. The next thing I need is the power connector that is messed up so that the laptop can get some power. Then I’m also going to look for some laptop ac adapters, hopefully I will get a better one this time and also a smaller one too since the old HP ones are really big.  Last time I bought a new adapter but the end is already rusting because of the power issue I think.  But I pretty much just need those three extra laptop parts to set it up again.  I’m sort of looking for a place that will put the power connector in too for me since I can’t and don’t know how to do that myself.

After I fix it, it’ll most likely become the family laptop that anyone can take around and use with the wireless internet connection.  I would like to have it back but it would be better for my parents to use it around the house and plus Frank is going to send me his old computer soon anyways that I can use as a desktop. 

So finally spring break is here.  well…it will be in a few hours.  Right now i should be studying for my animal behavior test but i think i will do fine or at least a lot better this time since i know the material much better.  afterward i will probably just bum around for a little while before going out to dinner with my cousins.  hopefully i will get a bunch of stuff done this spring break that i’ve been putting off.  well i thought i felt like blogging but i dont.  will try again next time.

Order Date: 4/17/2007

Today’s Date: 3/08/2008

The date above is when I ordered that game.  That was a few months after I bought my Wii obviously and so today I get on to check my email and it says “Order Shipped Notification” on a subject title.  of course, almost a whole year later I’m like wtf I didn’t order anything.  So I go and see and FINALLY that game is released.  I remember when I first ordered it, it was supposed to come out in June or July.  Then it just kept being pushed back and back and back until finaly now they are releasing it!  So I will get a new game soon and I am kind of excited.  Except it says two day shipping but I don’t think they will deliver tomorrow since it is Sunday?  So I will probably get it on Monday.  Hopefully it is a fun game or else I will be pretty pissed since they made everyone wait so long.

So this past week has been pretty busy and I will be pretty busy this coming week too, the week before Spring break.  Unfortunately I found out last night my friend who is in town for spring break is having her’s this week instead of next week so yeah that sucks but I will still hang out with her Sunday I think.  At least there is only 1 more week before my spring break though so I will have some time to slow down and get some stuff done.  Anyways I have a lot of crap to do today so I better get going.  I’ve been trying to increase my productivity but….it’s not going very well. lol.

i’m tired.  and today looks like its going to be nice today so good thing we are out playing tennis later. yesterday i was sort of ina ticked mood cause i woke up late then i didn’t have my paper printed out and ready so i was a bit stressed.  i go to tennis and damnit my partner is playing with someone else cause i was there like 5 minutes late, then i was stuck playin with this other asian girl that thought we were trying to hit home runs instead of just across the court.   after an hour of that crazyness he let us go really early so that was good, i think he was just trying to return the tests though so tomorrow ill try to be there on time so i can play with my regular group again.  after that i had some time so i went to print out my report, which didnt have a proofreader that is worth 5 points.  its ilke in middle school where they require you to have one already or something.  i hate that music class.  i dropped off my crap in there and then went to my car to go get my keyboard and recorder that we didnt even use and then when i got back they had pop quiz and i missed the first quetsion so i was ticked again.  then we had to go in a circle and somehow i got really confused and she was saying sometihng like ‘when we do this, you do what youre gonna do…’ and i just flat out said ‘…whatt?’ like i was stoned or something, and shes like ‘…youre gonna play it’. =|  then everyone laughed.  damnit.  i was so glad when i got outta that class.  iw as planning to meet linda at the library afterward but then i was in a shitty mood and plus i realized i forgot all my damn books i wanted to read anyways so i just flew home (and by flew i mean fly down the high way at like 90-95 yesterday, probably not the safest since im driving a jeep… lol).  ugh lets just hope today doesnt suck ass.  this is probably the worst semester i’ve had EVER.
