Hi guys!

Just saying hello from Europe. It´s been great and crazy. Spending lots of money so I´ll be in debt when I get back. Hopefully I will see you guys during the summer.

Karen sorry I logged off when you aimed me a few days ago cuz I ran out of minutes on the internet cafe when I was in Barcelona.

Hope you´re summers are going well!

love
Tash

2003-06-10T00:17:00.000-07:00

you guys! we have to go out! it's Karen's 21st Birthday...
Anyways meet us up at Island the usual at I think 4 pm on Wednesday.... call my cell or Karen's cell phone for details!
And some of you have to meet Scott by the way =)

2003-05-29T22:02:00.000-07:00

hey y'all I'm sooooo bogged down with finals its driving me nuts.. so I decided to take a break and say hello to the people I love most you guys! If you guys tried to call my cell phone in the past 3 weeks and haven't gotten a hold of me.. its cause my cell phone was stolen and i finally got a new one.. its teh same number... sooo you know where to get a hold of me.

2003-03-24T21:28:00.000-08:00

Hey Everyone!! Just wanted to wish you all a wonderful Spring Break!! Please do nothing but relax and have fun. I'm off to Florida tomorrow with Audrey (the tee hee girl) and Vince (well, he's not too famous for anything ... yet). I will let you know all about it and I promise I won't be too scandalous...come on now, look who I'm going with!! What are the three of us gonna do, overshop?!

Lei and Si...first off, stop studying so much!! You make the rest of us feel inadequate in comparison. Remember that thing called parenthood y'all supposed to be preparing for...yeah do that!! Normally I'd be all for you pursuing your academic endeavors but ummm seeing as how the baby is due like in a few days, I'm more for you BOTH taking some time to rest, sit in front of the tv and do nothing!! Ha Ha, Lei if you are in labor and still thinking of midterms I"m sooo gonna laugh at you. :-)

I miss you all. Take care of yourselves!!!

- Karen

2003-03-14T00:26:00.000-08:00

lol.. thanks for the advice tash =)
i mean i don't want to keep him from seeing scott... because a baby is a gift that everyone should take part in... its just that i just don't want anyone touching my son whom I don't trust... including him...
and dude it would suck if i actually cussed this person out during my labor.. yunno with all the hormonal stuff. I actually had a dream about that... it was weird and i felt bad after the dream, but dude i had to admit the dream was pretty funny.
bleh... he show boats everything.. he doesn't know a thing about me... if something happens with his friends he automatically blames me...
and he expects to have this title for my son???
arg...
I have midterms from March 25 all the way up till my spring break... I'll let you guys know whats up... when scott is born. =)
I love you guys! You truly are the best =)

~Lei

2003-03-10T13:06:00.000-08:00

hi lei,
i say if he might bring ppl u dont get along with tell him not to. if you dont trust him then i dont think he should be a godparent but i wouldnt ban him from seeing scott or anything.
me? i am studying my ars off for finals and celebrating shit loads of birthdays (everyone is born this month wow, including soon to be scott hehe). anyways hope y'all doing ok i might be MIA for a while :-/

-tash

2003-03-10T12:50:00.000-08:00

hey you guys =)
alot of stuff.. has been going on and its just been driving both Simon and I pretty much crazy and tired. Scott is about to come any day now.. my contractions are becoming more frequent... so we're expecting an day now. Anyhow... You know my "inlaw" issues... and I have no idea where to go and who to turn to. If you do not trust someone so much... would you give them the title as a godparent to your son???? Honestly... I've been vacilating on the subject for months and with Scott being born soon.. I honestly don't know... You guys I don't even know if I want this certain person around while I'm giving birth or after.. outta fear that he'll bring certain people that I do not get along with... or that i'll just cuss him out .. out of just hormonal rage... anyways.. what do you guys think about this????

~Lei

on a lighter note.. should we just open up why to everyone like all of our friends... and stuff so they can easily just write stuff to get a hold of us??? just wondering... laters y'all... we need an outing so i can post up more pictures =)

2003-02-28T15:34:00.000-08:00

Hey Everyone,

First off, SOREEE for not having blogged in forever. No excuses, I'll try to be better.

Simon, you and your family are definitely in my prayers. :-( I'm so soree. If you need anything please let me know. Stay strong k? That goes for you and Lei. Ha Ha, Lei I know you're gettin' anxious about the baby comin but don't worry Scott's almost out! And I know you'll prolly have a better body after this than before (which is gonna make me so jealous but you're just kewl like that).

As for me, just workin hard...school, midterms, ASUC, work, blah blah blah. Partying hard too, and to quote this guy from a couple weekends ago, "Guys we really gotta stop this lifestyle before we collapse". Soon as I can access a better scanner, I'll scan some pics. Seeing as how I'm at work though I better keep this blog short.

Take Cares everyone! Be safe, be productive and try to be happy.

Oh, and THANK YOU LEI!! YOU'RE THE BEST. In case anyone didn't notice, my quote book blog is totally vamped up and it's all thanks to Aileen.

Miss y'all.

quotes: Saturday February 8, 2003
outing with Karen, Adam, Jaime, Gerran, Simon and Lei

Lei to Karen: "...something something contraceptives. He wanted to know what was the best kind?"
Adam (pops his head out of bed and gets up quickly and runs out): "What Gerran? I'm coming. Gerran I'm coming."
Karen: I've never seen Adam move that fast before in my life."

Simon: I haven't had sex in so long, it feels like a I grew another virginity."
"I'm sticking it to the mouse."
"This is orgasm food" refering to the Japanese deserts we had a mishima
"I wanna be a mongoose."

Adam: "This is so tight, we're all the same height. I should be Asian."

Aileen: We all look Asian
Jaine: We are all Asian.
Aileen: Not Karen, she looks white.

Quote of the day: Gerran: "So if I start a revolution, can I have a statue at your school?"

2003-02-05T00:23:00.000-08:00

dang...I guess we have all been really busy lately. I just want to tell everyone that I hope you all are doing fine. I hope to see you guys soon. Little Scott is coming real soon!!! =D

2003-01-31T18:01:00.000-08:00

i had to take the pictures out to do some technical difficulties... I'll get them back up and running in no time.. Thanks y'all!
~Lei

2003-01-19T14:18:00.000-08:00

don't ask why in the world i have to Baby Showers but I do... you are welcome to come to both of them if you want but I recommend you come to the one on Febuary 22, just because the one on the 16th will have alot of people at that one and the other one is hosted by my Auntie Ofelia at her house so it will be closer to where y'all live in Hawthorne/Manhattan Beach =)

2003-01-17T00:42:00.000-08:00

simon and I watched 3 hours of boobs... no no not in that sense.... not as fun as it sounds... it was more like what I would refer to as "boob maitenance" the wonders of natural breastfeeding... LoL....

Karen... I love yah girl and you are always beautiful!
Beautiful

Don't look at me
Every day is so wonderful
And suddenly, it's hard to breathe
Now and then, I get insecure
From all the fame, I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends, you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Trying hard to fill the emptiness
The piece is gone and the puzzle undone
That's the way it is

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words won't bring you down
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words won't bring you down
Don't you bring me down today...

No matter what we do
(no matter what we do)
No matter what they say
(no matter what they say)
When the sun is shining through
Then the clouds won't stay

And everywhere we go
(everywhere we go)
The sun won't always shine
(sun won't always shine)
But tomorrow will find a way
All the other times

We are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down
We are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words can't bring us down
Don't you bring me down today

2003-01-08T13:02:00.000-08:00

There...It's about time too. The banner was supposed to be there 2 days ago, but the DSL servers took a poop and we were with the internet for 2 days!!! 2 days...Oh God...why? Anyway, there it is. I hope you all like it.

2003-01-06T13:20:00.000-08:00

2003-01-05T13:01:00.000-08:00

Well, everyone's funny and corny jokes are on my blogger. :-) I'll miss ya guys...back to Berkeley I go (super super sad face).

Luv y'all!

2003-01-05T03:41:00.000-08:00

LoL..
New year's Resolutions or an intersting New year's Story... Like someone being drunk off their ass and praying to the porcelain gods 9for those who might be as slow as Tasha was today... that's the toilet bowl)

My New Year's sadness:
Since the rest of Simon's family are unpreggies, everyone in his family (provided they are old enough to handle some form of liquor) busted out with the Merlot and the yummy Korbel and the delicious smirnoffs and Drank at the tick of Midnight. Meanwhile while simon's several Uncles passed by me and would say cruel things to my pregnant ass such as, "This Smirnoff is good, woulnd't you like some.... oh wait nevermind your pregnant next year." or "casually dropp a self satisfying "ahhh...Merlot is truly a gift to make your drunk", I slowly sipped my Apple Cider enjoying its sweet fizzy flavor. But overall new Years really didn't feel liek New Years it just felt like another day....

For all you engligh buffs out there!

2003-01-04T01:51:00.000-08:00

Okay...let me share with you something that happened to me at work yesterday.

So I am organizing the showcases for XBOX games when this guy walks very fast towards me with a mean look on his face. Bluntly he says, "I want to exchange these games for something else." So I tell the guy, "Our Store Policy states that we don't do exchanges." He starts to randomly yell shit pointing to his reciept saying that it says that we do exchanges and refunds, but there are many large signs on the counters saying other.wise. As the customer was yelling his head off, I quickly glance at his reciept and noticed something funny. I immediately told the guy to calm down and be quiet. Once I got his attention, I told him, "Sir, ummm. We don't do exchanges here. This is GameLand. Your reciept says FunCo Land. Those guys do exchange and refund there. That place is a couple more miles down the street." I then gave him a couteous smile. The guy turned beet red and said, "Huh? What? Where? Oh down the street. Hey thanks, man!" He then smiled and walked out of there pretty hurriedly. Funny how stupid people can be sometimes.

2003-01-04T01:37:00.000-08:00

2002-12-13T11:11:00.000-08:00

WE DON'T BLOG ANYMORE GUYS!!!! LOL WHAT'S UP WITH THAT?! Do you all think you have lives or something, friends, family, obligations!?!?! oh wait... we do! :-) So I'll forgive the lack of bloggage for myself at least. I just got finished taking a final and now i'm talking to lei online. Ahhh AIM what would we do without it? I can see AOL in like a year or so deciding to charge for AIM...they're like building a clientele now and in a lil bit it'll be BAMN, 39.95 to use AIM! Ahhh what would i do then?! I'd probably study more, sit and eat at an actual table and have live conversations with my roomate next door (all those things are overrated by the way)

It was really great to have all of us together in one room for Lei and Si's wedding :-) I really miss you guys especially around the holidays. I think of all the people in the world other than family, you guys keep me grounded. I know where I am and stuff. So thanks...I hope I ge to see you guys over break...let me take that back, WE MUST HANG OUT OVER BREAK! Good Luck with finals and life Lei, Si and Chris!

Hey Guys!!! Long time me no write...but eh the life of a berkeley student isn't really one of fun. So What's new with me? Lots and lots of school work (i swear the pull some of this stuff out of their ass!), working is ok (lots of stuff going on with the attorneys, too many people getting arrested in the bay area, and oh i asked for a raise so wish me luck that they grant me it), asuc student government stuff is a lot of fun but a lot of work (i have a 14 person staff and a personal assistant, hee hee) and life as a regular studnet is kewl. Went to 2 movies in the past 2 days (lilo and stitch, and sweet home alabama), party at zeta something last nite (my shoes are all damaged from all the beer that was on the floor at that house, i feel sooo bad for wheover has to clean that mess up), and now i'm shooting to be miss nerdo

I miss ya guys a lot...hope you all are doing well. Lei, I miss ya a lot girlie...how's everything going with yoU? How ya feeling?!?! I luv having random convos with you during the day. :-) Si!! My favorite future daddy, how are you?!?! Hope you're holding up....remember, fainting is not an option come the big day...either big day. :-) Chris, hope everthing's going great with school and the gf. I know you've heard it all before...but you deserve to be happy. Soo...not the greatest things in the world are happening with my family right now as I'm sure you all know....just pray, that's the best thing that any of us can do

So lemmee know asap when i have to be down in LA for the big wedding :-) Back to the books, I luv ya guys sooo much!!!

2002-09-20T23:28:00.000-07:00

Hey guys...damn...it has been a while. Thanks for understanding everyone! I have been soooo busy. Chris, Floria is an absolute sweetheart. Like I said to you on my birthday...You really do deserve someone special. You are just too sexy to be single...hahahaha...I hope that school isn't killing you, Dr. Christopher Anson Lieu. Hey, that does have a nice ring to it. Keep on keepin on dood. Karen...I can totally understand why you didn't make it on my birthday. You have to do what you have to do. You know that no matter what I lub you. You're one of my bestestestest friends in the world. ^_^

Thanks you guys for all of the thoughts and prayers. I know that my family-to-be will be a great one. You guys aren't just my friends anymore...you guys are family. You've been family but now there is a little one to call you tito/tita. Every day I think about how dorky of a dad that I am gonna be. The future looks like it is loaded with many many great memories and fun. I can't wait. Everything in life is falling into place...things are a smidge early, but I am not complaining. There is a part of me that is scared shitless about being a daddy. I have never really been a daddy before. I don't know what to expect.

Hey, if you guys want to know what is going on with just me...be sure to hit my blog up. Drifter in Training

Until then...

*hey guyz... hehe, it doesn't look like people are bloggin as much now... so i might as well do it. i know that you 3 have been very busy, actually 4, including myself. lei and si have the new lil bundle of joy coming soon... aileen has to keep busy with college stuff and planning out stuff... si is keeping busy with uti... and karen, wow, she's just been all over the place... right now, i'm losing my chill factor. summer is almost over for me and i move into my new place this friday. i also am goin on a retreat in vegas sun - tues... so over all it's goin to be a hectic week... because i start school a week after i move in... it's kinda worriesome, so i'm hoping to get it all done with lil debocles (sp) along the way. si's birthday was pretty chill yet exhilirating. sorry we couldn't see u there karen... si and lei, thank you so much for everything... your kind words really put a smile on my face, which is priceless to me. i was kinda anxious about bringin floria, but knowing you two have the kindest hearts, my anxieties were quickly thrwarted (i'm using big words because i feel that my brain is gettin dumberereererer). floria and i are doin fine, still feelin each other (and u know how i'm sensitive like a bitch), but i'm trying to work on the sensitivity.. but it's been bliss since i've been with her and i'm hoping that our futures will continue as it has been for the last two months. lei and si... keep us updated on the wedding and baby situation. we are all praying for you and wishing u the best. we are only a call away. i really like blogger, it helps me vent... let's see.. not much else is knew, excited about my new place, but not moving into it.. it's gonna be hell... but we'll get by. oh yeah... i also have some worries about school and my classes, and research and internships and all this other stuff... grrrrr, so i gotta keep my head on straight. i really have to focus on school... i wanna raise my gpa so that i can get into grad school and get my ph.d and be called DR. CHRISTOPHER ANSON LIEU... haha, has a nice ring to it, don't ya think. and then people will be saying " you're a doctor... you're too young, handsome, and charming to be a doctor" hahah... i have a lot to accomplish next year... i feel that i've found what i need to do in order to gain what i deserve. if you work hard, then you earn what u deserve. i've been cuttin corners for the last 2 years... i think it's about time i stopped wasting my parents money and just get those stupid A's. haha... well guyz, i know this has been freakishly long... but i haven't blogged for a while... anyways... i'll talk to ya'll later...

-with two scoops, christopher *

2002-09-10T23:52:00.000-07:00

karen your blogs are hilarious!

2002-08-22T00:28:00.000-07:00

Hey you guys! Well...I wanted to take a few minutes to write y'all a blog. What's new with me you may ask? Living the usual college life. It's weird....Sometimes I think that my experiences in college aren't the "real" college experiences. I talk to some people and they just seem to do the typical, seen in the movies college stuff. But it's ok...if giving public addresses on campus regarding protests, working my ass off, spending long nights in the library with people and the smuggled in pizza boxes, isn't the typical college thing then it's ok with me. :-) It's WELCOME WEEK here in Berkeley! So it's just a huge hectic rat race here. I'm taking the day off of work tomorrow/today so tomorrow I"ll be at Calapalooza (this huge fair style event where first year students get a look at the 500+ student groups we have) and then at nite, I'll be partying at Kappa Sig with some friends. Ha Ha....karen's going to work friday with a massive hangover. Steven's visiting me this weekend so I"m excited for that! And Adam will be here the weekend after. Ha Ha, the bf and the ex and oh yeah the other adam. He called me today....he's sick so he hasn't come back to Berkeley yet (whoo hooo, peace for a lil while!).

Chris: YOU and your research amazes me! You're doing something I haven't done and that I actually wanna do!!! Keep me updated. Yeyyy for Psych majors! (oh btw, I got accepted into the psych department in case i didn't tell anyone that).

two scoops... christopher

lei's craving: strawberry/peach fruit tart....

2002-08-11T01:00:00.000-07:00

Hey y'all. Well since lei and si have already eloquently expressed the best advice we could all possibly give to ya chris, i am just going to reiterate and say yeah...your feelings are valid. TOTALLY valid. It's hard when you like someone so much to be in a state of utter confusion. But ya know...either way, she is lucky to have you and if she's freaking out and having doubts then all she is doing is losing valuable time with you.

I'll see ya guys tomorrow/today! Luv, Karen

2002-08-09T22:52:00.000-07:00

*ahem* I guess it is time to put a guy's point of view into this (Just cuz it's a guy's perspective, it doesn't mean I'm right. heh) Anyway...Chris...I think that you're feelings are valid too. Don't be confused on who you are when you already have a good foundation of yourself. You know who you are. You know how you work. Don't let anything phase that. I think that you are ready for a relationship. I would guess that she feels uncertain about how things went because she doesn't want to lose you either. She likes you, there is no doubt about that.

Oh...it has come to my attention that Aileen already talked to you this morning and that things are getting towards the City of Better. =)

Well...let me get you guys up to speed...Well...the integra's engine saw it's last day last week. I've been driving that God forbidden 89 Mercedes Benz with no radio or A/C for over a week now =/ Tomorrow, I will be getting the old integ back...with a new and updated engine (which is a little bit faster and more effiecient than the previous). So as you can tell I am a giddy boy at the moment. As for school...I missed top of the phase by about 5 points...darn...Oh well...I did really well and I am really proud of the outcome. Well, that is just about everything that has happened since I last blogged and stuff.

2002-08-09T16:33:00.000-07:00

alright chris... 1. I think that your feelings are totally valid, I mean relationships and things should happen at their own pace and sometimes things do happen quickly but you know that in your heart they are right. And your right so why fight the feeling? And there is no reason to regret because you guys do have great thing. I guess she feels that way because girls are just stupidly slow sometimes (I should I know I am one) she's probrably afraid of ruining a good thing and wants to enjoy what she has with you... Some people see relationships as a short term thing, kinda like a race track. The faster a relationship goes the sooner it ends. I think that is how she sees it. Some people like you do see things as like driving on the freeway, you go with the flow and eventually you reach a destination be it the most positive or an alternate. Anyways, you can always be happy in a situation when you look at the positives, but true there are things that tend to bring you down but stay focused on the positive. And Chris yes you are ready for a relationship, you have been for a long time. Don't let one thing talk you out of it. You just needed the right time and the right person and who knows maybe its her maybe its not... But right now your at a crossroads and you know that you have Karen, Simon and me for anything you need. Your a great person Chris don't let it get you down. =)

~Lei
PS could you pick up karen this sunday?

2002-08-09T02:28:00.000-07:00

here comes a long blog... just lettin u know now. ok...as you guyz know, i'm seeing this girl here in riverside. we spend a lot of time together and i really enjoy. every now and then we get physically intimate, but this was just one night. two days afterwards she pops out of nowhere and says that we're moving too fast. ok... i know this may sound shallow, but BLAH!!! i know that things should be taken slowly and all... but why fight things that feel right. i was telling her that i dont regret what we did, but she does. she enjoyed but later regrets it. what's going on? this is really hard for me to handle. i really like her and she likes me, but why can't we just let things go at their own pace... why do we need to slow things down? now i feel that i can't really be myself around her. it's soo hard because i feel so comfortable, and i'm willing to let all of me show, but she isn't... and that really bothers me. and then sometimes i feel that im maybe putting too much into this relationship, and she isn't doin much back. i dunno guyz.... i thought i was ready to be with someone, and now my doubts are kicking in. but u know how i am... i let these road blocks get in my way. if something goes wrong, i just want to forget it all the same.... it's hard to suppress feelings, even though i've done it soo many times before. i really liked what we were doing, granted we were moving a lil too fast... but i think if it feels right at that moment, then let things happen. it was right for the moment, so why regret it??? i thought i had myself figured out, but sadly, i don't think i do. i don't know what to do guyz. i don't want to lose this girl, but then again, i don't know. i do miss the single life... but when single life comes, spending time with a special person is missed as well. the way i see it... u can never be happy... no matter what situation you're in... there is always something to bring u down. guyz, i need some encouragement. right now my anger is clouding my senses and i'm lost with confusion. i need you guyz, cuz u friends have seen me through everything... FREAK!!!!!!!!! i guess it's hard to accept change when it's in the other direction. who am i???????

- with two scoops of confusion... christopher anson lieu

2002-08-08T21:17:00.000-07:00

Hey guys! Lei, I left a message on your cell phone but lol sadly this may be a better way to get in touch with you. Are we doing lunch on Saturday or Sunday. Someone e-mail everyone else. It'd be kewl to do it Sunday so that everyone can be there (and by everyone I mean Chris, ha ha). Tasha said to e-mail her!! ASAP! And I need to know cause I don't have a ride. Stupid not having a car. It's ok in the Bay Area, but not in the LA Area...and we all know So Cal is where it's at. Okay! Talk to ya guys soon. I miss you all. :-( Life would be the greatest thing if I could see you guys at will. So either: 1.) we all live in the same city again or 2.) someone develops a teleportation machine. We'll see which thing happens first......

2002-07-20T21:44:00.000-07:00

Hey guys.....soooo I'm totally totally frusrate with women, with men, with the world, heck with the universe!! Why certain people are lucky enough to be in a relationship with someone so great, who can pick up the phoneand be with the oher person in five minuts flat is beyond me, especially when those people are crabby, lil selfish babies who are soooo self centered that they wouldnt notice if the entire world blew up!! Whereas other people are either 1.) still searching for someone amazing or 2.) miles apart from a peron they've already found. I speak of course of Quynh-An....sooooo Aileen, remember I told u I saved the convo well here it is. It's kind long but worth reading in your spare time:

Lyl Pookie: so I met someone in Italy...
KCub326: boy, girl or animal?
Lyl Pookie: boy
KCub326: kewl, what's he like
Lyl Pookie: 6'4"
Lyl Pookie: the sweetests guy I've ever met, honest...no one has ever spoiled me or been so attentive towards me
Lyl Pookie: he's a senior at Rhoades University in Tennessee but he's studying at Oxford this summer, so he's there right now
KCub326: impressive....i have so much respect for people who study at Oxford
KCub326: it seems like such a great school
Lyl Pookie: I know!
Lyl Pookie: he wants to come visit me soon, and he wants to go back to Italy together next summer
Lyl Pookie: and he even talked about how he thought we might "work" even though I'm in CA and him in TN
Lyl Pookie: I was like "uhhh...I have a boyfriend"
KCub326: lol
KCub326: such is true
Lyl Pookie: yes
Lyl Pookie: and he's emailed me 3 times since he left for Oxford (a week ago) and the day he left me gave me a "letter"
KCub326: oh really
Lyl Pookie: yeah
KCub326: i'm assuming it was a friendly note
Lyl Pookie: it was basically about how much he was gonna miss me....Ian read it...he didn't respond just folded it up and gave it back to be and said "interesting"
Lyl Pookie: it doesn't imply much...but there's a lot to it, I suppose
KCub326: shoot...you're gonna give that boy a complex
Lyl Pookie: he wanted to read it
Lyl Pookie: I tell Ian everything...and he knows everything that's happened...so it wasn't that big of a surprise for hime
KCub326: yes, there's being honest as in telling him you met a nice guy....but why did he have to read this note?
Lyl Pookie: cause he asked to
Lyl Pookie: it wasn't that bad of a note...haha
Lyl Pookie: I'll show it to you too
Lyl Pookie: but Ian already knew that he liked me, he figured it out himself...before I knew
KCub326: umm...ok
KCub326: seriously though....you're gonna give ian a complex
Lyl Pookie: haha no
Lyl Pookie: he likes it
Lyl Pookie: :-P
KCub326: he likes it that you're giving him a complex?!
KCub326: woman.....he already likes you, he doesn't need to know the details of other men...i doubt you'd be happy if he were showing you letters from a woman he spent time with in a nice foreign country like Italy
Lyl Pookie: I'd want to know
KCub326: well yeah we'd all like to know....doesn't mean ya gotta read the details :-P
KCub326: seriously...if that was ian's reaction (and let's remember ian's reaction at the squelch concert about the druggie), it doesn't mean he's happy....yeah you met a guy, but he's not a threat to ian, ya didn't do anything....ian's just gonna feel sad
Lyl Pookie: no
Lyl Pookie: because stuff almost happened
KCub326: oh geeze
Lyl Pookie: and well, Ian was the one that asked for all the details, and the thing is he trusts me and he has this strange gossipy curious characteristic that he always needs to know
Lyl Pookie: he actually was eager to read it, because he sees it as a funny story
KCub326: eh..ok, you know him better than i do....i'll take your word for it
Lyl Pookie: yeah
KCub326: brb....gotta locate some client files
Lyl Pookie: k

Opinions? Anyone? Anyone? Dont get me wrong,I think she's nice as a person and when it's not about men, it's fine.....but most of the time it is!!! And I swear she's psychotic. She makes me feel sad....that's all there is to it. Well you 3 met her....let me know what ya think.

I miss ya guys a lot!! I know I'm blessed to have the life I do now...only thing that would make it perfect would be to have you guys around here all the time. :-( I need normal people to talk to.
Luv, Karen

P.S. LEI I NEED SOME GIRLTALK TIME!!!!! :-( We just need to go to a spa and get away.....

2002-07-19T23:48:00.000-07:00

an excerpt from my blog:
[lucky that i have enough friends to fit on my five fingers: karen, tasha, simon, ryan, and chris....
I love you so much you guys... and you probrably don't even know how much... ]

2002-07-19T23:43:00.000-07:00

hey you guys yah last friday was a funny sight.. and it made me feel wonderful to be intouch with tasha again sorry about the booobies you guys... i know how much you wanted to go... hey i offered you guys the oppurtunity to take advantage of another type of field trip to spearmint rhino....
Karen: anyways sorry about your flight... I'm just glad you made it home safely... god I miss all of you guys.... I'll be writing to you all laters.... =)

2002-07-15T22:36:00.000-07:00

Hey guys....sorry I didn't get to see you guys this past weekend. So get this: apparently at certain times there isn't enough space in the air for a plane. Last time I checked the sky was freakin big. So yeah...I sat in a plane ON THE GROUND for over an hour and a half cause the plane landed from spokane like 30 minutes late and that threw the flight schedule completely out of whack. But yeah....it sucked. I really wanted to see ya guys. I'm sooo sorry about your arm Si...I hope you feel better!!! Lei, you must have been somewhat relieved about the lack of boob-age. LOL. Some other time fellas. Aight well working a full day is taking its toll on me so I"m off to bed. But I'll talk to you guys soon!! Luv, Karen

2002-07-14T17:32:00.000-07:00

I am okay now. You know Chris, you were right. You know...I think we are the only people in the world to find humor in me getting scalded. Now that I think about it. It was a fun night. It was fun to just chill outside and me prancing around in my boxers. Sure we missed a whole lotta boobies...you can just go to the website and just look at the pictures...that is just as good as being there...hahahahaha...anyway, there will be more events like that because it was such a success...I think there is something in Gardena or something...maybe in the OC...but I will email the guys this time asking if the club is 18 and over. nyway, this is gonna be my last week of freedom. Hopefully, it all ends on a good note. Talk to you guys later.

2002-07-14T01:35:00.000-07:00

hey folks... well si, i hope you're arm is feelin better. it was alll funny stuff, but we just wanna make sure that you're safe and doing well. that was quite an interesting night we had last night, but it was all good. guess what i did today. i was so freakin productive. i woke up at 11 am, sat on the couch, watched tv and ate food until 11 pm. it was the best thing i've ever done for myself. when a person has so much shit goin on and always has to do something or go someplace, it's always nice to tell yourself " you know what, i'm not gonna do anything today" and sure enough, that is what i did. i've been through some interesting stuff as of late, and you think when you have yourself figured out, somebody always proves you wrong. here's some words from chris... a;vlekna;eiovna;elkjva ;30923tugapodsn!!!! in case you didn't understand... then good!!! you weren't supposed too. if you think about stuff too much, it'll jsut mess things up. let things happen, whether for the good or the bad. take pride in the small things, because those are what really matter. for example, even if me and si couldn't get into the ritzy, expensive club, i wouldn't have traded the great time we had laughin at si for all the boobies in the world. remember your responsibilties... don't be too dependent... do the things that you wanna do, and do it so that you know that it will be the best for you in the end... u know what guyz, i'm gonna be honest... i'm kinda lonely sometimes... you all have your significant others, and i haven't been in a relationship for almost 2 years. but whatevers... i just have to be who i am, and who i wanna be, and somebody will see that that's who they want me to be, and appreciate me for that.... anyway... this whole blog DISPROVES my point of thinkin too much, so i'm gonna stop thinkin and go watch tv....

Hey guys, the burning pain in my left arm and in my right hand is pretty much going away. Karen, we didn't get to go to asianmodelpalooza because of something that was out of our control. We weren't 21 =P The website that was promoting the event did not specify that there was an age limitation (those bastards). Anyway, if Karen is wondering about this burning pain...basically my cooling system in my car blew up on me while we were at Tash's. Coolant spewed out 16 lbs worth of pressure onto my skin. Coolant is normally a "cool" 275 degrees, but judging by what my skin was feeling, it was not that hot (maybe 100 and up) so I got scalded pretty good. I had to rinse everything off before it corroded everything in sight. But all in all I am okay. Except the fact that Chris, Lei, and Tash got to see me in my boxers and a borrowed shirt for a good 2 hours. We all had a laugh about it, but it was all good. I might go out and buy some lotto today, this might be a lucky day for me. Who knows? I might win the lotto after the fiasco yesterday. Anyway, my birthday is on September 15th. Anyway, I gotta go...need to put more Aloe on these burns. hahahahaha...see you guys.

2002-07-04T14:11:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday to the frickin U S of A...Like in the Simpson's episode where they stayed at Ned's beach house...You know the scene where Homer went to the Kwik-E Mart..."Why not celebrate the independence of your country by blowing up a piece of it?" Anyway guys, stay safe, and don't put any large firecrackers in the dishwasher, it will just leak black bubbly water (again referring to the Simpsons -same episode-).

=/ Oops...sorry about that Chris...I would think that such a new controller would work rather well. Lei just got herself a new bookshelf from Ikea...Chris and I saw it when we were bored in Ikea. Anyway, I want you guys to pray for me cuz I want to get this job at Best Buy. Hey Chris...maybe you could get yourself a PS2 with my discount...That would probably make up for the bad controller. =D Anyway, I'll talk to you guys later!

-As a side note for Chris. That AsianModelPalooza thing...that's gonna be on the 12th of July. Let me know if you're still down to go!!!-

Hey guys...guess what? Hahaha...right now I feel like a gimpy klutz...last night...I freakin fell down the stairs. It's weird. I never really fell down the stairs before, but hey there is a first for everything. I'm okay though...the flight of stairs was a little one. My back hit the corner of the stair...other than that, I'm okay. I am gonna get me an x ray though. I thought that I would share my strange experience with you guys.

hello my beautiful friends... once again, it was a pleasure seeing you guyz. man, i'm bored. it's sunday night and i'm just bored. i'm going to riverside tomorrow to chill. i might stay a while to clean so yeah. but i will definitely be back before i go back for summer school. sunday's are soo boring... man, but then when i am busy with school and stuff, i complain about not having any time to relax... i can never be please.. blah. i also figured out one thing... remember karen, "oh i have next semester" (in my case, i have next quarter). I always have that in the back of my mind. you would think that after two years of studying we would figure out that procrastinating doesn't work. i swear... it's a stupid cycle of stupidness!!! oh well, i got a busy day ahead of me... just thought i would blog and blog... see ya guyz later... two scoops.... christopher

Hey sleepyheads. :-P LOL. I was all ready to see you guys but it was past 1AM so I understand that it is a bit late. I am a night owl and unlike Simon and Lei I don't get up at 5AM!! Ha Ha....I wish I had gotten to see you guys though. In the case that you read this today (Saturday), I'm leaving tomorrow night. Hopefully we can even hang for an hour before I go. Otherwise you all are going to have to come to Berkeley and visit me!! So yeah, last nite Steven and I were just gonna grab dinner at ESPN zone, but then he suddenly changed lanes at the Disneyland entrance and said, "Let's go to the park!". So we went at 8PM and got kicked out at 11PM. But we got to ride 4 rides, which sometimes is all ya get to ride if you go the full day! I'm going out with Adam later today for dinner and a movie, let us know if you want us to drop by. I promise it won't be at 1AM ha ha. Love you all!

Chris...I read your message all the way to the end....THAT is how much you mean to me. :-) I know that Si, Lei and I are all glad that you turn to us in your time of frustration and need. I think that we also know what it's like ot have stupid people walk all over us. You are soooo much better than they are, and I don't even know them. Fuck, truth is I don't have to know them and I don't want to know them if they are hurting you like this. Inconsiderate people are the worst and I hope that after this you don't give this girl or whoever it is anymore of your time cause it's wayyy too valuable. It could be spent doing stuff, sleeping or thinking of wonderful things to say to Karen....whoa did that one get typed!?! No you should NOT shut yourself from the world. The world would cry. It would not only lose the funny guy that the Riverside people know about, but it would lose the person that I know you are; yeah you're funny, but you're sweet and considerate too. You care when things happen to us. I have had great serous conversation with you and I enjoy those just as much as I enjoy the jokes. Your heart is always in the right place and we appreciate that. And remember, that not only do women find you attractive but men do too! How many people can say that?!?! Ok, I better quit while I'm ahead cause I'm actually attempting to make you feel happy. I'll be in town next Friday you guys!!! I hope I get to see you. Love you all!

FUCK!!! sorry guyz, but you're the only people i can talk to right now. today was the fucking most shittest day of my life. shit...why did this have to be??? i know i'm being a real bitch about things, but i need to come into this light before i go back. you know when you expect certain things from people, and in the end, they just fuck you in the ass. i mean, u do so much for them and then end up making stupid ass excuses at the last minute; then later they expect everything to be ok. well that's fucking bullshit, and i feel i'm always being taken advantage of. i know my friends can depend on me and all, but when they let u down, u feel that you can't depend on them, and you feel that they're just toying with you. you do stuff for them, but they don't do shit for you. this is physically draining the life out of me. i can't do anything. i'm goin soo crazy and it's consuming me. it was one of those days when you look back on the bad things that have happened, i know it ain't good, but i can't help it. i dunno what i'm supposed to do anymore. i know myself pretty well, and i know this is gonna pass.... but don't u hate it when it comes!! whenever you're at the top, people expect you to stay there. i hate it when people ask me what's wrong when i'm quiet, and nothing is wrong.....fuck, why can't i be quiet? why can't i just observe people and see what they're doing rather than have people look at me? i don't want to, but it feels like i'm always being fucked over. i can't depend on anybody.... there are those few who i can depend on, so maybe i should just keep to them and fuck over everybody else. FUCK!!! well, i'm just tired of letting all of this in. and i need somebody to know. like today, dont tell anybody this, but i have to let somebody know... i was supposed to spend time with this girl. she's a really close friend, and she just keeps fucking me over... i mean, i go out of my way to do things for her, and she acknowledges it, but doesn't do anything about it. i mean, a little consideration is all i ask... why can't she fucking see that? and the people i'm living with...they freakin can't even help me out for the rent, and they're being stupid about it. and when i want people to do a certain task because i think that they're the one's who would do the best job, simply ignore me and don't even want to do it. shit... why do they have to be so inconsiderate? i gotta stop being such a fucking nice guy; a freakin push over. if i need to, maybe i should start being a jackass to everybody. i shouldn't expect shit from people anymore because they always fuck me over. ALWAYS!!! maybe i should just shut myself off from the world because the world is treating me like shit... i think i just need time to myself. that's what i don't have here at riverside... time to unwind. i can't wait to go home... cuz that's where my heart is at. it's like i'm a second person when i'm here... there is always something i need to do, or accomplish....whethers it's pleasing somebody or some bullshit like that. at home, i can just be me... i can relax and just help out the people who i owe my life to... my mom and dad and those who have known me the most and the longest.... sure these people are riverside know me...but they only know one side of me...the stupid, dorky guy who makes everybody laugh.... i guess that's all good, but when i'm not like that, they don't accept me.... well FUCK THEM!!!!! but whatevers... if you guyz actually read this to the end...you truly are my friends.... if not, haha, it's cool, i know it's long.....but yeah... i look forward to your presence......

Hey folks i just wanted to see how everyone is doing. i miss all of you guyz a lot. for some reason, i'm missing home a lot, especially you guyz. and i'm still gonna be at riverside during summer so i won't be able to have the same summer i had with si and lei as last year, which was by far the best summer i've ever had. school's been blah and it's soo hot here in riverside....it's gonna be like a gillion degress in the summer here at riverside...i just wanted to see how everybody was doing at their own prospective school and trying to make the best of the situations that they are in. it's like 3 in da morning on may 31st....and i'm kinda tired.... i miss u guyz....

Hey guys. I just wanted to see if everyone is alive and stuff. So...hi ^_^

2002-05-07T13:35:00.000-07:00

=D I had so much fun with you guys. All of your Berkley friends are sooo dope. We all seem to click. The only thing that I am really worried about is how much damage we all can do as a group. Heh heh...we all just met...who knows what'll happen when we are all together. I am not really sure about what we should do over the summer...Finals are coming up for everyone isn't it??? (Well except me...I get them every three weeks *as I give a sarcastic cheer*). Anyway, I give you all the best of luck. When finals are over...the fun can begin! Hmmmmmmmmm...what to do over the summer?

Hey guys, it's been a while since I last blogged. I just wanted to say hi and that I love you guys...^_^ Oh...by the way Chris...If you see someone named Paulo Tandoc join A Phi O sometime this year, tell him hey. He's a good friend of mine that will be going to UCR too. I told him that he should join because the people are great, and it would be something that he would belong to. I dunno just yet which dorm he will be in, but he should be attending next spring. I think you'll like him.*gurgle gurgle* uh oh...here come the munchies...I'll talk to you beautiful people later...BYE!!!

That 2 scoops of raisins thing still cracks me up. LoL...

Hey guyz...it's chris....i'm in my apt now...kinda confused about things. I've been really wierd as of late. It just seems that i'm so lazy all of a sudden. I had a really good first week of school after break, but now i'm too lazy to do anything. I dunno what it is. It seems like i'm depressed. my friends here at riverside seem distant...or is it me being distant. Man, i feel really sulky... any advice guyz...you three have known me the longest, and know what makes me tick. i could use some help from ya'll. thanks guyz
