that's not good.

i'm comfortably confused

when i want to be afraid.

pedophile

shedd aquarium, buckingham fountain, etc.

so finally got the pics uploaded from that chicago trip i took last week. here's to a long post.


outside the aquarium.


love this camera. fish!


sweet pic of turtle.


ugly fish.


seadragons!! so colorful =]


group for them.


pelican fish.


ok, so stingrays are freaking hard to catch a pic of. this took me like...at least 30 tries. and it's still not so great. *shrugs*

the next three pics are probably my favorite. same pic. three different perspectives.


looking from the outside.


looking through too hard.


looking inside. seeing something beautiful. =]

jeez i love those shots. ok, so back to random pics.


the cliche skyscraper shot.


alice and i, and our respective minis. hehee =D


the photograph of the photographer.


the path of serenity. perfection has never come so close.


outside.


they are so cute!


heeheeee


alice!


family.


cuties.


wheee.


whoosh.


i'm not sure who took this pic...not me. maybe parents, but i really like it. one of my faves.


and that concludes this extremely long picture post. XP hope you enjoyed a couple pictures. i'll leave you with this.

sophomore year is officially over and i've found my senior quote.


"To tight pants and being awesome."

- Aaron James Ottinger

summer

so it's finally over. 9 months. all behind us. 9 months of work. of math. of science. of kadel. of literature. 9 months of no sleep. bad food. drama. and love. all behind us. these 9 months mark a beginning for 18 more. the next three months will be somewhat depressing to me. i will miss the all day everyday theme of IMSA. you work all day everyday. you see the same people all day everyday. drama goes on all day everyday. honestly, this was a dissapointing year. especially the end. next year, i vow not to care. to go back 9 months ago, and have the mindset i had back them. screw crowds, groups, and stereotypes. it's all gonna be different next year. maybe it'll have the happy ending i hope for.

hope everyone did well on finals. have a great summer, and good luck next year. it's junior year, and we're all gonna need it. i'll miss you all over summer. get fat. =]

I'M DONEEEEEEE

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

blalalala i'm not studying for finalssssss

i spent the entire freaking day in chicago. well kind of. more like, shedd --> buckingham fountain --> michigan ave.

there went the world

safe sex
the diaphragm
lacking of your self-control

diary
the top drawer
your mother wished she'd never seen
"i just wanted to be loved," she said,
"it's something that i never had."

call him
at 3 am
wishing to be reassured
he'd love to
of course he would
anything to get you in bed

"goodnight," she said,
"i'm going to start a revolution
and you can be the start of it."
it's in my head

footprints
and fallen leaves
these are the kind of things lovers think of
backseats and motels
these are the places that they've been
you want none
of these things
these are the kind of things that make us weak

"goodnight," she said,
"i'm going to start a revolution
and you can be the start of it."
it's in my head
"goodnight," she said,
"i'm going to start a revolution
and you will be the start of it."
it's in my head

tonight we'll
think twice
the awful scented nights
there went the world
it's just one girl
there went the world
it's just one girl
it's just one girl
there went the world
it's just one girl
it's just one girl
it's just one girl

it's just one girl..

i see how it is

i'm the back-up. the second rate mold.

Sorry

this is the part

where we all must say goodbye. the same people that we see everyday at least 3 or 4 times a day, we will not see for 3 months. a few of them...we may not see again forever. please sign my yearbook. because to me, a yearbook is more than a book of pictures. it is a catalyst. it is a catalyst for millions of memories. i've only gotten 3 signatures thus far...but even so. reading just those 3 have made me happier and sadder beyond relief. please let me sign your yearbook too. i have a lot to say. it's just 8 more days until everyone is gone. please don't leave, without saying goodbye.

if we hold on to each other
life will be so sweet
if we hold on to each other
life will be complete

it's friday, i'm in love

it's funny. how with 2 weeks left of school, one can make a new friend. and lose so many more. i guess it makes me kind of excited. knowing things aren't set yet. but losing people might just hurt more than i thought it could.

don't say what you mean
i'm not ready for that
all the things sounded so appropriate
at the time
say what you mean
i'm not ready for that
no, not yet

beautiful

so i hung out with the refugees today. they were a really fun bunch. they were so active, happy, loud. hanging out with them must have been one of the funnest and most rewarding times i've had this year. it makes me happy to know that imsa is helping these kids out. volleyball was amazing. some of the kids could really hit too! even a mom joined in. smiles were all on, laughter rang after every hit, every slip, and every crash. it was just beautiful. yea. beautiful.

let the college whoring begin!

monday, you can fall apart

happy birthday jeff!! ^__^V

anger. frustration. screams. shouts. curses. words they don't mean. noise. tears. love.

it's times like these, that silence means everything, and no one is to know about this.


why did this have to happen. right before mother's day?

they see me rollin' they hatin' patrollin' they tryin' catch me ridin' dirrrtayyyy

anyone wanna eat a pint of haagen dazs strawberry shortcake ice cream for me?

let's make some amends. old friends. don't lose sight. let's stick it 'til the end.

today was rather enjoyable i guess.

here goes the steps to "Bo's Method of Writing a Kadel Research Paper":

write until 2:30 am. sleep for three hours. wake up at 5:30 am and shower, brush, get dressed, etc. so by 6:00 am when IRN turns on again, you'll be ready to work again. Work on paper until 7:25. race off to class. doze off in the first class. slack off in the 2nd. You plan to skip Orchestra to work, however, the 3rd class will be pseudo cancelled. you will walk into class. your teacher will talk for about 10 minutes, and let you go. Give a joyous whoop! and race back to your room to continue on that paper. finish the content part at 10:45. decide you don't need to skip orchestra after all, and attend. partly because cause you have a small sense of curiosity about something. orchestra will end 15 minutes early. eat lunch quickly, obtain a yearbook. read yearbook on the way back to your room. spend another 15 or so minutes reading and not working on your paper. then suddenly shut the book and scamper to work. it is bibliography time. work tediously on the bibliography. finish at around 1:00pm. class starts at 1:25. decide to check over paper, and footnotes. begin check and corrections. halfway through checking and correcting the time is 1:25. say and think, "fuck it" and press the print button. wait 5 minutes for the pages to print. in these 5 minutes, you will put on contacts for you will have a baseball away game later in the evening. at promptly 1:30 you will run off to class. breathing hard, you enter at 1:32 and hurriedly turn in your paper. you proceed to do some acting and pretend that your printer cartridge had problems. Kadel will pardon you, and the rest of class will be blow-off. =]

i should be on ESPN. over the shoulder diving catch landing on top of ryan wang. yea. the asian two. we rock.


you're cold, maybe you just missed the sun
you fall, feeling like it's just begun
so far, keeping it together's been enough
look up, rain is falling, looks like love.
