Wow, it’s been a while since I wrote something. Well, in case anyone wants to know, I’ve been busy partying. As in hardcore partying. Too much in fact. As in, I’m out until-the-sun-is-up-the-next-morning type of partying.

My life does not suck. Not at all.

Oh and I walk on Saturday at UCLA. I get to wear my master’s cap n gown.

I sometimes miss Uriel, but his loss because I am awesome. More awesome than before. Seriously. So, I win!

Awesome weekend of concerts!

I had the BEST and unforgettable weekend ever! Saturday, 4/10, I went to Las Vegas to see Muse and they totally rocked it! Muse’s concert is definitely one of my favorite concerts.

The next day, I flew from Las Vegas to SFO and drove an hour to Napa Valley to see my favorite band in the world: Backstreet Boys! And guess what? I met them! I shook AJ and Howie’s hands. Nick and Brian both gave me a tight hugged hug each. I was in HEAVEN!
And, I went to both events by myself and I don’t feel like a loser. In fact, I feel independent. I’m not going to miss out on opportunities and events just because no one else wants to go with me. So, go me!

Oh and I don’t know those girls in the picture with me prior to this event. I just met them at the concert and they are so cool!

And can you tell who my favorite is? :D

I am officially done with grad school! Hooray! I just receive my final grade and I got an A-!!! Wohoo! I’m graduating!

Wow, can’t believe it’s over. What a ride it was.

Huge thanks to Uriel for all his help during the beginning of my masters program. I wish I can thank him personally. Maybe, in time I’ll be able to. If you are reading this and you know Uriel, please tell him thank you.

Wow, I now have a masters degree in computer engineering! I feel so accomplished! :)

Oh noes!

I just got home right now from a fun night of dinner, movie, drinks, karaoke, and fast food. I know I got home “late”, or early, depends on how you see it (it is after all 5:30am PST right now).

Something weird is happening. I think I’m being paranoid, or maybe it’s just me, but I swear my friend (who I have a crush on) is trying to hook me up with his friend. Why can’t the guys I’m attracted to like me back for once.

Figures things like this will happen to me.

Okay, I’m off and going to try to sleep. I’m wide awake though.

Skiing vs Snowboarding

I’ve always wanted to learn how to ski. Last year, Uriel took me to my first ever skiing trip. It was during Valentine’s day. It was the last trip I made in DC that was on a happy occasion and good terms with Uriel. Sigh, I miss him a lot =(.

Anyways, I took a lesson and during the lesson in the slope, I fell in a ditch by a tree. The whole ordeal gave me a bad experience, and ever since then, even though I kept trying, I could never master skiing. Well not master per se, I just couldn’t get the hang of it. Even though I did okay skiing, there was still this fear that I would fall in a ditch and it would literally start a panic attack, so whenever I gain speed, I try to stop and fall on my ass.

This year, after a disastrous skiing trip,( a snowboarder snowboarded into me hard while I was in line to go on the ski lift for a second run, and I fell and hit my head hard on the ground. Told you there is something not right with me and skiing =) ), at the urge of my sister and my cousin, I decided to to try my hand (legs) at snowboarding. Lo and behold, I kick ass at snowboarding! My cousin and her boyfriend taught me the basics and I pretty much got the hang of it after 30 mins of going up and down the bunny slopes. I even know how to break! (I really have a hard time breaking while skiing).

I’ve gone snowboarding three times this season already, and I’m becoming really good at it. I’ve gone skiing three times, and I have never gotten better, but with snowboarding, I can go down the slopes without falling on my ass. I should have gone snowboarding from the start!

I wish I can snowboard with Uriel. I want him to see how I rock at snowboarding. Heck, I can even go in the lifts and get off without falling on my ass. Sadly, I can wish all I want, but I know he would never speak to me again. =(

I really don’t like missing Uriel. I’m hoping tomorrow’s and the weekend’s festivities would take me out of this funk. Weekend calls for tons of food and alcohol, and hopefully some karaoke =)

Cool video and minor rambling

Here’s a cool video I want to share. Uriel would love this:

You all know that I miss Uriel a lot when I post on this blog. So I guess this week is just one of those weeks when I miss him more than normal since I’ve been posting more.

I miss totally geeking out with him and telling him when something cool happens. Like last week, I went to see Shutter Island with my friend and one of my friend’s friend is dating the guy who played Viktor in Dollhouse. I saw a movie with Viktor from Dollhouse! And I sat next to him during the whole movie. I mean, when I told my other friends, they were like, who? But I bet, if I could tell Uriel, he’d be totally psyched because he would know who I am talking about.

So, I drowned my sadness with tons of karaoke and drinking and eating junk food that night. Haha, I really had a fabulous time that night, but it made me miss Uriel more. I was doing so well in not missing him often.

Sigh.

I tried

Okay, I tried. It’s not going to happen. I tried dating. I can only be friends with guys right now, nothing more. I can’t force it. It’s not fair because my heart is not in it.

At least I tried.

Angels cry

I found this song apropo…well because I always thought Uriel was my guardian angel.. I was doing so well, however, minor setbacks like this are to be expected. It’s okay to miss someone you love once in a while right?

I shouldn’t have walked away
I would’ve stayed if you said
We could’ve made everything OK
But we just
Threw the blame back and forth
We treated love like a sport
The final blow hit so low
I’m still on the ground

I couldn’t have prepared myself for this fall
Shattered in pieces curled on the floor
Super natural love conquers all
‘Member we used to touch the sky
And

Lightning don’t strike
The same place twice
When you and I said goodbye
I felt the angels cry
True love’s a gift
We let it drift
In a storm
Every night
I feel the angels cry

C’mon babe can’t our love be revived
Bring it back and we gon’ make it right
I’m on the edge just tryin’ to survive
As the angels cry

I thought we’d be forever and always
You were serenity
You took away the bad days
Didn’t always treat you right
But it was OK
I do somethin’ stupid
And you still stay with me

But you can only go for so long
Doing the one you claim to love wrong
Before too much is enough
You look up
Find your love gone
And

We were so good together
How come we could not weather
This storm and just do better
Why did we say goodbye

‘Cause lightning don’t strike
The same place twice
When you and I said goodbye
I felt the angels cry
True love’s a gift
We let it drift
In a storm
Now every night
I feel the angels cry

C’mon babe can’t our love be revived
Bring it back and we gon’ make it right
I’m on the edge just tryin’ to survive
As the angels cry

Baby I’m missin’ you
Don’t allow love to lose
We gotta ride it through
I’m reaching for you

Baby I’m missin’ you
Don’t allow love to lose
We gotta ride it through
I’m reaching for you

Lightning don’t strike
The same place twice
When you and I said goodbye
I felt the angels cry
True love’s a gift
But we let it slip
In a storm
Every night
I feel the angels cry

Oh babe, the angels cry

Now I see myself through different eyes, it’s no suprise
Being alone will make you realize
When it’s over, all in love is fair

All at once, I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Now that you’re gone

I know I pushed you away, what can I do that would save our love
Take these material things
They don’t mean nothing, it’s you that I want
