there is a certain quality that is very unique that is not very common among people. this quality would be, having the ability to have a smile on your face and seem happy, even while going through the worst shit in your life. i really really really admire people who are able to do that, because it is not easy. i know only very few people who are able to appear happy whilst experiencing some rough stages in their lives. and the thing is, you know that they are suffering and hurting so much on the inside, yet they still seem as though nothing is wrong. although, let me elaborate. in my opinion, i don't think that it is healthy to keep everything bundled up inside of you. i guess it's easier for me to say that because i consider myself a very very open person, and i try not to keep anything inside. basically all im trying to say is that it takes a lot of mental strength to be strong enough to not let your problems bring you down. this is a quality that i am working on personally. i think this is an important quality to have, because without it, you are unabe to fully appreciate and focus on everything else that's going on around you, because you are only drowning in a pool of your stress and hurt. which leads me to another thought. i think that stress is one of the most pointless emotions that a creature is able to experience. it's not a pleasant feeling, first and foremost. it doesn't lead to anything. it, again, doesn't allow you to fully focus on everything else that's going on. stress just doesn't get you anywhere. this may sound a bit redundant, but the most "frustrating" feeling though would most likely have to be frustration. it's just a feeling of helplessness. in many cases, when you feel frustrated, there is nothing you can do about whatever you are frustrated about. example: you want to go out one night, but your mom doesn't let you and says no exceptions. what does this make you feel? ah yes. frustration. there's nothing you can fucking do. you can't progress from anything. you're just stuck (at home in that example) and you can't do a damn thing to change that. anyway, i've been thinking a lot about things in the past few days, and there's sooo much more that's been on my mind, but i just don't have enough time right now to get it all out.

fucking best day. ok well backtracking a bit, so the night before last, chris and i went to johann's house to meet up with him and jen and erik. we hung out there, then i took chris home, and then i slept at jen's. i had a really good time, it was super fun. we watched lots of boy meets world hehehhehe.
we woke up around 11 (chistmas day), and then we picked up johann, his mom, and his mom's friend jimmy. we all went to new york bagel shop and ordered lots of food. after that, went over to erik's house and ate another meal there. went back to johann's house after that and played f-zero on game cube, and another game but i forgot the name. chris and jake met up with us there, and then we went to evergreen to meet up with brian and stefan. all of us (we took 3 cars) drove out past beltway 8 because the guys wanted to skate. the chosen spot was sterling bank. we got kicked off before the session even started.. that sucked it hard. jen and i had to go eat yet another meal at her house, so we left nd had dinner and i talked to jen's sister jackie about college and photography, etc for a bit more than an hour. after that i came home. earlier, while we were playing video games at johann's house, i asked him if he had a record player, and he was like, as a matter of fact, i do! it's sitting in the garage. so he showed me it, and i asked him if i could borrow it, and he said i could keep it. that is SO fucking awesome. THANK YOU SO MUCH JOHANN. so when i left jen's, my brother and i were hooking it up to the cd player that i have now (because the one that johann gave me didn't have any speakers), but it's all good. i went to sleep happy.
today i woke up again around 11ish, and my mom and brother and i went to the museum of fine arts to check out the exhibitions going on over there. they were fucking amazing. i saw nauva while i was there. i'm gonna go back some time next week. it was soooo crowded today though. oh well. so as we were waiting at the corner of bissonnett and montrose so that we could cross the street and go back to the car, my brother goes, hey the guy behind you is the singer/guitarist of opposite day. and i was like, yeah right oren, whatever (thinking he was just fucking with my head). i turn around, and sure enough, it's the fucking guy from opposite day. if you don't already know, opposite day is one of my favorite bands - i fell in love with them after i saw them play at the flamingo cantina in austin a few months ago. so my brother and i struck up a conversation with him for about 5 minutes. it was amazing. definitely the highlight of the day. after that, my brother and mom and i went to the river cafe and got lunch, and then went to soundwaves and i bought a couple of records:
Assuck - Misery index
Fleas and Lice - Global destruction
Fleas and Lice - Bleeding rectum
man im so excited to finally have a record player again. it's been a while. as i was leaving soundwaves, i saw danny walking in (yes sophie, danny. "hot topic/taxi taxi danny.") so anyway, then we came home, and i made a tofu dish which turned out pretty awesome(ly), and then my family and i went to see the nutcracker. it ended at around 10, so i went over to malaika's house and hung out with her and her friend rebecca for about an hour. i had a really fun time hanging out with her. :) :) it was about 11:40 by the time i left her house and i had to be home by 12, and i was gonna stop by academy because chris and some other people were skating there and i wanted to say hi for literally 2 seconds but it didn't work out. hopefully i will get to see mr christopher tomorrow :)
oh yeah it's my dad's birthday tomorrow. i made him some artwork. i think he will like it.
man it was a fucking good day today =) i hope everyone had a wonderful day too

the last few days have been much fun. on thursday, i had my last final, art. at 10, i went over to dave's and ned and thomas were there. i woke them all up, and then dave made us all biscuits and cornbread, etc. we all watched tv for about 1.5 hours. it was soooo funny. we were watching some show about the do's and dont's on the red carpet, and this one chick on tv was like, "whatever you do, just don't fall and make an ass out of yourself." so right after she said that, i turned my head, and thomas was walking in to get something, and he completely wiped out and ended up on his face (on the floor). thomas and ned left after a little while, and then dave and i went to academy and some other stores. after that i came home and hung out for a while, and set up my new computer. :) on friday we had some people over for dinner, (soph + family, lauren + family, jen + family, ariela +family, etc.) and we had a nice time. then on saturday night, we had some israeli's over for dinner, in which the whole time i was hanging out with oren, and my parents gave me a glass of wine, so i got pretty tipsy at the beginning of the event. it was fun. oren and i played ping pong and i almost fell over, and then he played guitar and i played drums and i almost fell asleep at the drumset. ok. the rest of the days were kind of a blur. but basically, i've been hanging out with mr christopher a lot. a few nights ago i went over to ellie's house for chanukah dinner, and then i slept over. we woke up pretty early and just hung out around the house, and then ryan came over (he came in town from stanford) and brought us vegan food from natural years (restaurant in third ward), and we had a picnic in ellie's backyard. after that, i went over to border's and bought 'zen and the art of motorcyle maintenance.' after that i picked up mr christopher and we went to half price books in the village, and i got a beatles tape for $2.98, and i got an andy warhol book, and a book called 'introducing modernism.' after that, i took mr christopher home, and on my way to pick up sophie, i saw caitlin driving, so we pulled over at the park and talked for about 20 minutes. after that i went over to soph's and we walked max, and then i went back home and took a shower, and then sam came over. the two of us went back to sophie's to pick her up, and we ate dinner at mai's (it's been sooo long since i've been there). after that, we came back to my place and hung out, and then at like 10ish we went to see love actually. got back around 1, hung out a bit more, and then sam left, and soph slept over. i'm sure i left out some details, but i can't really remember it all.

today was a busy day. after my final i went with sophie to walgreens, and then i took her to her mom's school. after that i went and picked up mr christopher and we ate an early lunch at 59 diner. after that i took him home and then stopped by mom's studio to visit her. she showed me all her new stuff that she had been working on. she's gonna let me take some of her work and hang it up in my room. :) after that, i went back over to mr christopher's house, and we hung out on his bed with ninja turtle sheets. we had a really good time, we were being really playful and stuff. it was really good. =) after that, i went over to blake's house and we ate some food and he helped me out on some problems in pre-cal. after that i went and picked up jen, and we drove over to ximena's house. taylor and victor were there too, so we all hung out there for a while, and watched a lot of homestar runner. funny. after that, jen and i went over to miki's house for a while. then, jen and i went to kinko's to meet up with caitlin so we could make copies of some history stuff. after that me jen miki and lauren went to mcdonalds for a few hours and pretended to study. now im home, about to take a shower, and continue doing this studying nonsense.
oh yeah, my speech teacher asked me to come by his office today after my final. he gave me a little present and thanked me for helping him out this whole semester. i thanked him for choosing me to be the person to help him out. see, i took speech this semester, but i was the ta. i graded everyone's papers. i never gave any speeches. the students presented the speeches to me. anyway, after he gave me the present, i gave him a long hug, wished him a nice winter break, and then left his office. the end.

yesterday i woke up around noon, and then at like 3 i went with my dad to micro center to get a new computer. i've had the one that i have now for almost 7 years. one day this week we're gonna set up the new computer, i am super super excited. it's fucking rad. anyway, after that, i went to droubi's with my dad, and then i went with blake to house of pies for some coffee and food, and then after that we went back to his place and studied for some english. i took my hebrew final today which was a complete joke, and then i had my speech final which consisted of me sitting in the back of the room with the teacher, talking to him while everyone else was taking the final hehehe. when we got out at 12:30, sophie came over and we ate pizza bagels and watched a small section of high fidelity. after that, we went to chris's house where jake was at too. then i walked sophie back to her house because it was a lovely day outside today. after that i walked back to the evergreen skatepark and hung out with chris, jon, jake, danny, and "the dan"... the dan that owns mentality skateboard. i had heard so much about the guy and i finally got to meet him. anyway, after that, i went over to blake's. craig was there too. the 3 of us studied for a while, and then i took craig to austin's house, and me and blake hung out for a while. we went to fuddrucker's and had a very lovely conversation. after that, we went back to his house to study some more, and then went on a little walk, and ended up at the park. we went on the swings for a little while, and then went to borders for a cup of coffee. the guy that worked at borders was wearing a u of h shirt, so i struck up a conversation with him for about a good 5 minutes. anyway, then i came home after that. my mom came in my room and gave me a package sent from my brother. he burnt me a copy of the Opposite Day cd. he is the fucking best brother in the world. he took me to see them in austin a few months ago. when he came home for thanksgiving, i had asked him if i could make a copy, but he said he left the cd in austin, so i was like hey could you maybe send me a copy through the mail, and he said i should just wait until he came in for winter break. but, much to my great surprise, he sent it through mail for me. =) =) he fucking kicks it hard.

hmm, good weekend. friday after school i just kinda hung out for a while and met up with my mom at sam's club to pick out some gifts for people and stuff. after that, i picked up chris from jake's house and he and i went to best buy to look at record players. after that, went back to my house and had some mini pizza bagels and coffee and pretzels that we dipped in chocolate spread. at around 7:45 we went to fitzgeralds. it was raining like a bitch and took about 15 minutes to find a place to park. we finally found a place like fucking 6 or 7 major streets away from fitz. we walked, and right as i got out of the car, i stepped in this fucking huge puddle that went above my ankle... not a good feeling. we stopped at some mini mart on the way. we saw some guy throwing away a bunch of folded up boxes, and chris was like waiiitt and asked the guy if we could have one of the boxes. so we kept walking with chris holding a box over our heads. it was fucking cold outside an we were completely soaked. we stopped again at another mini mart or something because i saw lettie there. we talked for a few minutes, and then chris and i kept going. we finally got to fitz, and there were a fuckload of people waiting in line. we ended up just standing out in the rain holding a box over our heads for about 45 minutes, and then we waited under the covered area for another 25 minutes. there were 2 lines, one line for people purchasing tickets, and the other for people who already had tickets. there were some guys in the line of people who already had tickets that started singing against me songs. it was pretty cool actually, they sounded not bad. anyway, we finally got inside and luckily against me was the second band to play. the first band that played was kinda sucky, and there was no way i was gonna stay for anti-flag. against me was soooooooooooooooo good. caitlin was there, and hannah nick and tayler were there. malaika was there too :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) i haven't seen her in foreverrrrr. after against me played, we left - hannah drove me and chris back to my car - we were still fucking soaking wet. after the show i came home and just hung out.
i woke up today at around like 3 p.m. because i was sooo tired. this entire week i've been going to sleep anywhere from like 2 -4:30 a.m., and waking up at 6:30-7 a.m. i'm just always up late talking to chris =), ned, and dave. anyway, so yeah, i went to droubi's with sophie, and then she and i went to cactus records to look at some stuff, and then i dropped her off at arty's. after that, i stopped by dave's and hung out at his place and talked to him for a little while. after that, i went and got chris and we went to memorial city mall so that chris could buy some super sexy shoes (which, by the way, he looks super sexy wearing those shoes). on the way out, i saw this super cool dress in some store, so of course we went in and i purchased 2 shirts :). after memorial city mall, we went back to chris's house for a little while, and then went out and picked up some pizza from domino's and brought it back to his house. we ate a few slices, and after that we picked up jake and blake and went to ihop for some pancakes and coffee. then i took everyone home. now i'm home. i should be studying for finals, all i'm worried about really is pre-cal and history. not even pre-cal so much. just history. tomorrow i'm going with my dad to best buy to look at new computers, because i've had my computer for so many years and it sucks now. the internet explorer still doesn't work.. i'm typing this from my brother's computer, damnit. anyway, i'm feeling pretty good right now.
this past week i've been kind of upset with my parents, but right now everything is cool. they're kind of getting on my ass about me and chris, him being an "adult" and me being a "minor". ehh whatever. i'm just so tired of thinking about it. they fucking over-exaggerate everything. all i know is that chris makes me happy. he makes me feel good. everytime i tell him about my problems, i feel like they are so insignificant and sooo easy to fix, like i shouldn't even let it get to me because it's just something so small. but, unfortunately, the other night, i just became so angry. i'm like the most pacifist person. for the first time, i was MAD, like mad beyond belief. i've never been that mad before. it was kind of weird. i called chris and told him i couldn't hang out that night because my parents were being sketchy, and i told him that i'd call him back in a little while because i couldn't talk i was so mad. when we hung up, i threw the phone on the ground out of anger, and then i started feeling bad for the fucking phone! i felt like i hurt the phone, it's ridiculous i know, but of course that just made me feel worse and added on to the anger that i was feeling. but i dunno. right i just feel so good about life. well, i usually feel like this. it's just this week i've been feeling not so good, what with all the shit going on with my parents. but i'm feeling the goodness again. i get so excited about the smallest things in life. for example, when i got home, i remembered that i had those two shirts that i bought today in the trunk and just go so excited about it. when i called my mom after droubi's at around 3:30 to ask if i could go hang out with chris for a while, and then go out with some friends for dinner and said sure of course, i just got so excited. when i went to galveston with sophie arthur and chris, and asked my mom if i could go out afterwards and she said sure of course, i got so excited about it. i've been appreciating the smallest of things, and it feels fucking good. fuck, i'm excited about listening to this song right now.

dayam it's been a while since i've updated. well yeah, i've been pretty busy with things lately. last weekend was wonderful. on friday night, i went with chris sophie and arthur to some stores in montrose and we all bought neat things. the next day, the four of us went to galveston for dickens on the strand. i had such a nice time there. a bunch of people were dressed up victorian-style. it was cool. after galveston, i drove around with chris for a while, and we stopped by the new source shop in the village. chris was looking at the really sorry dvd because he was told by many people that he needs to see it. he reallllly wanted to get it, but he ended up not buying it. after that, we drove around some more and made a short stop at the nearest parking garage..... hehehhehe. ..lovely view. anyway, after that we went to jake's house and matt and karl were there. i came home that night and a brilliant idea popped into my head. christmas is coming up, and chris REALLY wants that dvd..... so the next morning (sunday), i went to the source and bought the dvd. i im'ed chris telling him to call me AS SOON as he saw my messages. he called, and i told him that he needed to come over immediately. he came, and i handed him the dvd in a box, wrapped in wrapping paper. he opened it up, and as he looked up, he said "...you fucking rock." and he looked sooooooooooooooooo happy. you dont understand how excited i was to give it to him, i was so antsy and couldn't wait any longer to give it to him. we hung outside of my house for about an hour, and i would see him every once in a while glance back at the dvd and a smile would appear on his face. it was amazing. he reacted exactly as i had hoped he would react. man, everything is sooo good right now. chris makes me really happy. he is such a good guy. i have too good of a time when i'm with him. i can't think of a time where i haven't laughed to the point where my stomach is about to fall off (?). it made me so happy that he was able to come with me to galveston. at first he wasn't going to be able to, but he made some arrangements so that he could go. thank you so much for that, chris

the next day (which was thanksgiving), i woke up around 2 and my family and i went to some lady's house for thanksgiving. after we ate, kevin came over and we talked for a while, and then me him and chris went to amc 30 and saw the haunted mansion. after that, we went to mai's but it was closed (that was the first time ever that i've seen that restaurant closed), so we went to house of pies, and then i came home a little bit before 1.
i woke up today around noon, and then chris came and picked me up and we went and got jake, and the 3 of us went to memorial city mall so jake could by some awesome es shoes. now i am home because chris has to go to work, but when he gets off of work, the 3 of us are probably gonna go out and get some food.

damnit, the internet on my computer hasn't been working for a while, so i'm actually downstairs on my dad's computer right now. well, let me go over what's been going on for the past few days. on wednesday night, chris picked me up and he and i went downtown and hung out there, i took some rad pictures of the buildings. stefan and thomas met up with us, and then jake and dave came, and then brian, adam, and taylor showed up. they skated at tinkertoy and tranquility. chris and i were there for the longest, waiting for everyone else to show up. we just walked around for a while, and finally after a while, some security guard kicked us off because it was private property. i went home because i had to study for my pre-cal test, which, by the way, i got a 61 on it... :( oh well. so yeah, thursday night (last night) was amazing. danny had asked if he could come over in the evening because he had just got his license, etc. so i took a shower and right as i got out, the doorbell rang, and my mom got it. when i came out, danny, jv, and this really really nice guy named daniel were in my game room. we played ping pong for a while, and then chris came (i expected him to come because we had planned to hang out last night anyway). we all played ping pong, and then danny and i played the drums. the doorbell rings, and jen, johann, and david duran were outside (i thought jen was gonna come around 11ish because she was gonna sleep over, so that was a nice surprise). we eat some food in the kitchen, and play some more ping pong, and then the doorbell rings again, and it's jon, jake and thomas. it was sooo much fun, we all just kinda hung out and it was amazing. everyone left at around 11:15ish except for jen because we had plans for her to sleep over. today was a great day, because it was the last day before thanksgiving break. after school, sophie and i and arty and sophie's mom went to fadi's after school, and then to sophie's house and we hung out there for a while. then i got home, and chris and jake called saying that they were at linkwood. they came and got me (my car is in the shop because water got inside of it), and we went to linkwood. dave, jon, brian, thomas, stefan, and a BUNCH of other guys were there. it was very fun, we just kinda hung out and stuff. then i had to go home for dinner with my parents, in which my parents gave me some wine heheh. then chris and thomas came and picked me up again, and we went back to linkwood and matt was there too, and i got to meet thomas's girlfriend, kellee, she seems like a reallllly nice girl. we got to talk a lot, it was nice :) . when we got to linkwood, i took some pictures of some guys skating. we were there for about an hour, and at around 10ish chris and i and thomas and kelle and jake and stefan and brian all went to memorial high school and we skated there, and i took like 2 or 3 rolls of film of the guys skating. it was sooo much fun being there, but at like 11:30 this damn security guard man came and kicked us out, so that was kinda lame but whatever. tomorrow night chris wants to hang out. i am soooo fucking confused about everything right now. mmm, all the uptown guys :) jake. chris. jon. dave. oh yeah, and brian is an awesome guy too.

holy shit. what a damn day. after school, it was raining like a mad man. i waited under the covers outside for a while for it to calm down, and jon was there waiting too. after a while, we decided to say fuck it, and jon was gonna run to his car. i asked him if i could come with him and then he could give me a ride to his car. he was like, hey i'll go get the car and you wait for me at the circle drive (which was SUPER nice of him by the way). so me and this other guy matt waited for jon, and jon came and got us. we took that guy home, and then started driving back to my house. jon's car died and got stuck in the water (it was SO flooded). so jon pulled up so that his front wheels were on someone's lawn (so that his car wouldnt completely flood). so some asshole came out of his house and yelled "hey! get off that guy's lawn!" i got out of the car, and when i closed the door, all this water poured into jon's car. i went to 2 different houses and asked to use their phone, but they weren't home. so on accident i went to the asshole's house and asked him politely if i could use his phone, and he was like, "you guys shouldn't have been driving down this street and blah blah, i just called the police on you, so you can go wait by your car for the police to come." so i was like fuck you and then this very nice old lady across the street offered for me to come to her place, so i had to cross the street (which was very filled with water), and i used her phone and she offered to let me and jon stay in her home. i went and got jon and warned him that the police was coming. the police came and asked us if we were ok and said to wait for the water to die down before trying to get the car out. so we went to the old lady's house and she offered food and drinks and clothing and towels. she and her husband were very warm and generous. we were there for about an hour. the man lent jon one of his shirts. jon looked like a grandpa, it was hot =). anyway, so then jake and karl came and rang on the doorbell, and we went to the car and tried to get it off of the lawn, but it was pretty damn stuck. so, we kept asking all these cars that passed by, and finally this one guy helped us out and got his car out. now i am at home, and i'm going to take a nap. too much excitement for one day.
