I just feel like putting something up since it's a special day today. Heading to Karyn's in a few. Just need to iron my costume & get my stuff ready. Oh & not to mention buying the fake lashes. Teehee. I'm *soo* excited for Monster's Ball.

Photos should follow in an edit blog. lol. You'll be lookin at a lot of "Mrs. Officer, Mrs. Officer" pix. Sexy sexy.

Call me at my new number: 911

Emergency only!!

So Zoot Suit was everything I expected it to be & more. I sincerely loved it! Auntie & Tito Bert did too. I was freaking out a little bit at first, cause in the beginning the introductory character, "El Pachuco", was all talking in Spanish & I thought that's how the rest of the play would be haha. But no, not really. It was all English, with snippets of Caló blended in here & there. I thought everything about it was genius. The music, the set pieces, the actors, the costumes, were all on point. I got a few good ideas from the play to use for Halloween, but I'm still unsure.. Jenssy was great though! I'm really glad I saw it. Even though she didn't get to meet my folks (cause they were already at the parking lot), I thought it was cool of her to have us meet up, if only for 5 minutes, since they had to go change & unload all the junk. I met her fiancé! I was starstruck a little bit, since he was the guy who played "Henry Reyna" in the play & all. He seems really cool. I thinkVictor & Jenssy make a cute couple.  But ohmygoodness, how awkward would it be to play a girl who's already married in the play & watch your boo in real life get engaged & kiss two women, one right in front of you! Ahhh I don't know. I would feel so uncomfortable. lol. I was never destined for the big time.

I've been having such a lazy weekend, but a good one nonetheless. I think after I get back home from church I'll... start homework, I guess. haha. Idk though, if I were to not touch my school stuff whatsoever when I get back, it wouldn't really make a difference tomorrow since I never have any actual homework due. Most of my homework consists of readings & annotations. The rest goes to random Women's Studies assignments & Chinese calligraphy worksheets, but I actually like my Chinese class so it ain't no thang. This semester is soo easy I swear. I know next sem I'm gonna eat my words though. Silly me for not taking my foundation classes first. Stupid me for signing up for the last orientation lol.  I guess it's alright now, since I feel like I gotta handle on most shit going on. Like getting Financial Aid, for one. Seriously though, what. a. relief! I'm covered for this sem & Spring '09 & I'm hoping things will stay constant from now til next year. Auntie says we *must* be vigilant about FAFSA stuffs next year, meaning I'll prolly apply while I'm at home for break, which isn't so bad since all my folks will be there to get me the info asap. I don't wanna take any chances though on the money issue. I need to be freakin vigilant right NOW so I won't worry next time around, like I did when I first applied. I really, really wanna apply for at least 5 scholarships before I head home for the hollerdays. Sign up for giveaways & college drawings. There's so much out there I can do to get that ca$h. Haha can we say bonafied hustler or wha? I'm already starting to spend my Pell Grant money, which is worrying me a tad bit. Like, shoot, I'm gonna pay freakin $42 for a one-way ticket to San Diego via AmTrak? For a one weekend surf tourney??? Ehh... I really wanna be cheap here, but it's so hard sometimes.. it's so tempting *not* to be lol!

I feel slightly better about things though, since Halloween plans are a little "in the air" now. I'm not all too devastated about it. Maybe it just hasn't sunk in yet. Oh well, what can you do about bad timing? Michelle's got her fam's wedding plans & now, me, with my auntie's friend's kid's birthday plans. Oh I know why I'm not all that upset now. The girl's turning 4 but she's having her birthday at a roller skating rink! Can we say YEAAAH?!!1?1!*Abercrombie* AHHHH I'm sooo excited!! I haven't been to a roller rink in for-freakin-ever! I'm happy, I'm happy! I just need to find a college buddy to chill with there, cause I don't think the 4 year olds would lol. & asking my auntie to skate is totally out of the question. Hmm.. maybe Karyn? Marielle? Idk. We'll see. Now that just leaves the issue of what to do on the actual day of Halloween. Ugh. Idk Idk Idk. I-D-K. I don't even know what to *be* yet! I'm sad.. There's been some stuff floating around campus, a club opening here, a theme park day there. I'd love to hit all of them up. But I still wish I could go to Santa Barbara. I don't see the point in going anymore though, especially if I won't have a definite ride (Michelle) & if I can't sleep over at the UCSB dorms. Faaack. I'm at a bit of a loss right now. & I mostly wanted to go to SB because Lani's birthday is on Nov. 2nd.  It would've been the *perfect* weekend. Hmm.. maybe there's a chance of her meeting me up at Cerritos where the birthday party's at? Haha. Most definitely though, I'd like to take her somewhere, sometime in the near future. Maybe not that weekend but the next?

For now, though, my indefinite Halloween plans might be 1) clubbing at Pine St. on the 25th, 2) going to Universal Studios, or 3) going to Knott's Berry Farm. If I had to pick one right now I'd go for Universal Studios, just cause, I haven't been there in a looong while & I hear their park has the best scary visuals, considering it's a movie park & all. Sure I'll be scared shitless, but hey.. it's Halloween.

Countdown to San Diego: 5 days!!! I *need* to pack!
