Finals Week

Kills.

Hope. Peace. Joy

Third Sunday of Advent. Father Norman had a saying for the meaning of Joy that caught my attention.

"J stands for Jesus and Y stand for you. The O stands for nothing that stands in between the relationship between you and him."


Simbang Gabi starts tomorrow.

Bounce bounce bounce

Today was such a great day. Waking up. Not cold or hot, just perfect. I had a feeling that a good day was going to happen. I ended up waking up and then taking a shower to get ready for Janessa's party in Bounce-a-Rama next to Burlington. I got there at 12:30. Shot some hoops then went to this huge jumper house. It was pretty dope. Got hella tired though. And after we all ate pizza, chicken, and soda. After the party I met up with Kevin squared. (Miranda x Catap) We chilled everywhere. Walked around the mall, and almost got kicked out. Thanks Catap, haha. *Note: Never yell out STRINGS near the nike store. A couple hours later we ate at jolibee and stayed there for a while. Met some new people, pretty cool. Then we walked out and met up with Russell. Came from his dentist. HAHA, btw. When Russell saw this one kid go out the door he knew who he was. So he was like oh oh oh! Hey! And the kid was like "Oh yeah, hey Andrew!" I was laughing so hard, hahaha. Anyways, we walked some more, and met up with Michelle, Brian, Jonathan, Rowena, and Troy with his dad. Brian and Michelle kept looking for their secret santa gifts. I didn't bother to even find mine, haha. Russell, we have to go get ours on Friday. Remember! After the mall, I dropped Troy off at his house and Troy's dad and my dad talked for about a half an hour. Then my dad and I went to panda express to eat dinner. Chill day overall.

Thanks James

You muslim! Thanks for getting the lanyard and bringing bomb ass creampuffs. Thanks bro.

Injured

Okay, so I haven't updated my blog for a long time now. Might as well start now..


It is currently 12:24 AM and I just got back from the San Jose Hospital. Wondered why I went to the hospital? Well let's see. So at around 6:30 PM I had a basketball game against East Palo Alto. There was a play for everyone to spread out, and I drove the ball inside. As I went up for the lay-up I notice that my body starts to turn, and in my head I'm like "Oh fck." So then I end up landing head first onto the gym floor and twisting my neck. I blacked out for like 5 seconds and tried to get myself together for a while. Then I went to the bench. Ahhh, as the game finished I went home. I told my dad that I had a bad fall, and he goes crazy. So we go to the hospital at around 9 PM and stay there for 3 hours. I didn't get to do homework or anything at all. Plus, I can't play basketball or any sport until I get an approval from my doctor, which sucks. Well yeah, now I'm here doing homework. Sorta. I'lll try to update more. K, late.

Thankful

First of all, I'd like to say to everyone..

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
I hope you all had a good time eating turkey/ham or whatever with filipino poods!

But I just want to say I'm very thankful to be where I am right now. I'm glad I feel like I'm living my life to the fullest. There are times when I can feel down, but I'm thankful to have friends who are always there. I am also thankful for my family because they're just always there for me and I shall love them forever. I am thankful for life because it enabled me to give me a chance in the world. Thank you God for giving me a good life. Well, that's it for now. I'm thankful for a lot of things, hah. Just didn't want to post them all. K, goodbye! Pics up later*

I've been so lazy to update this blog. I'll have one post with hella updates (hopefully) Okay, bye.

Shoe Pavillion

Today I had a soccer game that was a pretty big game, however we lost 3-0. I think? Hah, oh well. I'm not that mad, we did ok I guess. Sucks that its our last game though. But now it's time for basketball season, finally! What I've been waiting for.

After coming home from soccer I decided to tag along with my grandpa and uncle to Shoe Pavillion at great mall for a sale that was going on. I was prettty bored, haha. I walked to Champs and McDonalds to buy some food. Didn't see anyone familiar, but there were so many boppers haha. Kinda funny, it brings back memories in a way.

Oh yeah, haha. I had a dream that I met Bionic last night LOL. Thanks a lot Kevin, but dreams may come true ;) Maybe he'll come back for you, and you'll actually have a camera. Haha, go get one for Christmas.

Happy

I love being happy. Like today was such a good day for me, in fact it was a great way to end my school week. This Friday was great! I thought I did well on the religion test, and I was stressing so much about it. We lost our soccer game today 2-1, but we still made playoffs -_- Sucks cause I'll have to start basketball next week. After the soccer game I went to confirmation class. I hella love going to confirmation. Meeting new people and learning something new each Friday is great. After confirmation, went to YFC. This made me really happy because I got to see all the MHS heads whom I haven't seen since homecoming, haha. So that was fuuuuuuuun. Gotta talk to Russ, Andrew, and Catap about to SF plan tomorrow. Man, it feels like a fail. Oh well, if I don't go to sf tomorrow I'll probably play ball with Ryan, Steven, Brian, Jonathan, and them.

OH YEAH, had a wheatgrass shot today. Omfg, worst tasting drink ever! BUT, it gave me the best energy and got me really hyper =]

History

has been made. Congratulations to Barack Obama for becoming our new president of the United States! I believe in you Obama, and I believe that you can make a change to our country.

Rainy days

Bring down my ways. I hate the rain! Somtimes it can be alright, but most of the times it's bad. I always get all these mixed emotions during the rain, and most of the time it's all gloomy and depressed =/ Oh well, it's a fear that I must overcome I guess.

Had a game in the pouring rain today tho, it was pretty fun. I hated coming home all wet and cold. I took a nice 20 minute HOT shower to refresh myself. Felt so good after that. Hella stressed about a religion test on Friday. So much work to do!

Oh! Heard the homecoming group picture came in! I guess I'm satisfied, haha. Still have to see the couple one.

My name is Crisann

and I draw cool skeletons for Spanish!

St. Lawrence Academy

Homecoming week for sla has been pretty dope. Monday, I wore uniform cause I didn't have a homecoming shirt. Tuesday was game piece day, and today was game card day. I wore the I <3 SF shirt cause of the heart, hah. Oh well, easy way to get free dress. Fk uniforms. I'm pretty excited for the rally on friday though.

This cake probably made me gain 5 pounds.

Whatever

Well, I've been acting normal now. I still haven't found out what got me to act all weird last week. But whatever, I don't want it to come back. Well actually, I don't mind it coming back cause I'm always up for a challenge to actually find out who I really am.

Today, we lost our soccer game 3-2. I've never had so much intensity, anger, and frustration. I scored a PK, but that didn't matter. We were still down 2-1. Josh scored, but it was still a tie. With about 10 minutes left, our opponent scored so make the score 3-2.

Once they scored I was so angry and frustrated. I wanted our team to score right away since time was ticking. We had a good possession for the last couple minutes, but we didn't score. I was pretty mad at myself though. I had a good chance to tie it, but I fcked up. That's life I guess. But it's in the past now. Some guy wanted to start sht, but I didn't care. I'm not that type of person. Well anyways, homecoming week has been great. Free dress ftw, haha. Kay, bye!








I wish things would go back to how they used to be.

MHS Homecoming 2008

Homecoming was pretty fun. It was a great experience, and I'm glad I got to go with great people. Everyone from MHS is just so fun to be around, I swear. I love them. Like, if I didn't care about my education I wouldn't mind kicking myself out of my current HS just to go to MHS, hahah. But yeah, overall it was cool. After homecoming, hella people went to Denny's. What a tiring/fun night!







Sportsfreak!

Why am I feeling this way

Wow, so this past week I've been acting so strange. Like I haven't been myself at all. I feel like I forgot everything about my life, friends, family, and other things. I hate this feeling and I really want things to go back to normal. God, please help me. I just don't know anymore. Like, I don't even know what to blog about. Ehhh, whatever.

Homecoming week is coming up. MHS homecoming was pretty cool. Got so tired after since most people went to denny's till 2. Yeah, I just want to start over with everything.

10 reasons why you are not rich

Here are 10 more possible reasons you aren't rich:
http://finance.yahoo.com/banking-budgeting/article/105934/10-Reasons-You're-Not-Rich

You care what your car looks like: A car is a means of transportation to get from one place to another, but many people don't view it that way. Instead, they consider it a reflection of themselves and spend money every two years or so to impress others instead of driving the car for its entire useful life and investing the money saved.

You feel entitlement: If you believe you deserve to live a certain lifestyle, have certain things and spend a certain amount before you have earned to live that way, you will have to borrow money. That large chunk of debt will keep you from building wealth.

You lack diversification: There is a reason one of the oldest pieces of financial advice is to not keep all your eggs in a single basket. Having a diversified investment portfolio makes it much less likely that wealth will suddenly disappear.

You started too late: The magic of compound interest works best over long periods of time. If you find you're always saying there will be time to save and invest in a couple more years, you'll wake up one day to find retirement is just around the corner and there is still nothing in your retirement account.

You don't do what you enjoy: While your job doesn't necessarily need to be your dream job, you need to enjoy it. If you choose a job you don't like just for the money, you'll likely spend all that extra cash trying to relieve the stress of doing work you hate.

You don't like to learn: You may have assumed that once you graduated from college, there was no need to study or learn. That attitude might be enough to get you your first job or keep you employed, but it will never make you rich. A willingness to learn to improve your career and finances are essential if you want to eventually become wealthy.

You buy things you don't use: Take a look around your house, in the closets, basement, attic and garage and see if there are a lot of things you haven't used in the past year. If there are, chances are that all those things you purchased were wasted money that could have been used to increase your net worth.

You don't understand value: You buy things for any number of reasons besides the value that the purchase brings to you. This is not limited to those who feel the need to buy the most expensive items, but can also apply to those who always purchase the cheapest goods. Rarely are either the best value, and it's only when you learn to purchase good value that you have money left over to invest for your future.

Visit the Banking & Budgeting Center
Your house is too big: When you buy a house that is bigger than you can afford or need, you end up spending extra money on longer debt payments, increased taxes, higher upkeep and more things to fill it. Some people will try to argue that the increased value of the house makes it a good investment, but the truth is that unless you are willing to downgrade your living standards, which most people are not, it will never be a liquid asset or money that you can ever use and enjoy.

You fail to take advantage of opportunities: There has probably been more than one occasion where you heard about someone who has made it big and thought to yourself, "I could have thought of that." There are plenty of opportunities if you have the will and determination to keep your eyes open.

Value

Today was such a great day. Thank God It's Friday was all that went through my mind. I couldn't wait to enjoy to start my 3 day weekend. Today was a wonderful way to start it off. I had a soccer game after school so I got to miss 6th period, but we lost 7-0 haha! Oh well, we "beat" them last time. I'm just glad the embarrassment is over, haha.

After the soccer game I had to go straight home and change real quick for the first confirmation meeting. I was pretty excited for it since I was looking forward to meeting new people. It was pretty cool. I got candy, haha. Then we talked about like what expectations I must do for the confirmation class and yeah. It was dope.

After confirmation, Adrian, Kathleen, and I walked over to YFC in Pavalkis. The theme for that night was Value. We came in late so we had our own group and we talked about our highs and lows. My high was going to the Sophomore retreat wednesday and getting all the Happy Birthday's from friends. My low was losing 7-0 today, haha. Rest of YFC was great, it was cool seeing everyone. Marykay, I hope your read this!
