Yeah, well I never update this thing, but it's a new year and all so I figured I would grace you all with my presence here on xanga.

Happy New Year!

Hope everyone spent their New Year's Eve with the people they love and with drinks in their hand...  I spent mine at Jeddah's new house and had yummy food, delicious margaritas and of course the inevitable shots with the terrible three (although it WOULD have been just terrible two if there wasn't peer pressure.. ahahaa). New Year's day I went to church, my grandpa's grave, LA, San Pedro and had an awesome dinner con mi familia. I always hated New Year's because I have no extended family out here in Cali, so on one hand it totally sucks not getting the "tradtional korean" New Year's with the food, the bowing and all that good stuff... but then again at least I have a family to  share it with, right? I'm seriously just really stoked to spend next New Year's Eve in New York... I'm planning on going there next winter break and you don't even know HOW excited I am for it. I haven't been there in a few years now, and now I'm completely California-ize. Even my best friend from New York says I'm a total "Cali Girl" from seeing all my pictures and what-nots. It's funny cause even though I used to live there, I know I'm gonna be such a dork and go back to all the tourists locations just to feel like a New Yorker again. But mainly, I want to see my family there SO bad. I miss my dear little cousins every day of my life, and I fear that if I don't see them soon.. they won't be so little anymore. And I wanna hang out with my older cousins, now that I am somewhat older and I'm no longer their little-jane-who-they-can-push-around-just-because-they-are-older-than-me. LOL. Those days man.. you guys used to TORTURE me.. ahaha you just wait till you guys start having kids of your own.. it's PAYBACK time! *just kidding* Anyway, that's so long from now. *sigh*

Winter Break

Honestly, I thought it was going to be like a jail since I was back to living with the parentals again. But surprisingly, my parents gave me SOOOOO much freedom this past break. First, I started working again at Buckle just for a little extra money for Christmas and what-not but then after like a week and a half and plus being SUPER SICK for like 2 weeks straight.. I realized that all I really wanted to do is just sit on my ass and play all day. hahaha.. I'm not even lying.. that's ALL I really wanted to do. So this break I've been having a LOT of fun hanging out with the besties like every damn day, being at Jennifer's house more than mine, helping her babysit the babies.. (i LOVE michael and michelle), having a few drunk nights, girl's nights!, thoroughbred (which is amazing and now a new christmas tradition for me), movies ( I have watched SO many movies over break, really good ones too and old ones like Memoirs of a Geisha, Crash, Four Brothers, 40 Year Old Virgin, Harold and Kumor, Aladdin, Finding Nemo (all the disney ones is because of the babies), 3 Ninjas ("rocky loves emily"!), Wimbledon and of course a TON of Friends.), and a lot of my time has been spent getting ready to pack to move to my new house at the end of January. I'll be living a little further away, but hey.. ya'll can just drive a little bit more to come see me.  I leave on sunday so I've got a few days left, tonight I'll be partying at Julie's and thursday and friday I will be in Irvine partying my ass off with the crazy kids. I wish I hung out with a lot more people over break but I realize it's really not an easy task to keep in touch with everyone.. haha I'm on the OTHER side of this now, so I realize how hard it is.. so here's a Thanks to everyone who went off to school and still kept in touch with me ! And I've still got some time so call me up! And another thing I'm super glad about it getting back in tune with my twinnie again! We both hadn't seen each other in soooooo long and it was fun hanging out and reminiscing on good times in the past.. we both thought about it and we were pretty lame back then! It felt good to be back in Riverside again just like the old days when I spent wayyy too much time there and going back to SD to see the Chargers game with my twinnie was even better because the two of us ALWAYS have fun in SD  To my twinnie: YOU BETTER COME VISIT ME IN JANUARY OR I'LL HAVE TO HITCHHIKE MY WAY TO LA AND KICK YOUR ASS (just a warning)

Lists

Here's a list of the stuff I'm looking foward to / New Year's resolution-ey type things:

Resolutions

*Not skip any lectures this quarter

*Keep and stay in touch with old friends

*Don't buy stupid shit I don't really need

*Stay away from boys.. I had a lot of fun in 2005 but ionno.. I think I'm ready for it to be a bit more serious now.

*Take better care of myself and my surroundings

*Reconnect with God, the Church and the Bible

*Go to Main Gym, RIMAC or run to Black's Beach at LEAST 3 times a week

*Getting closer to my Kappa family

Looking Foward To

*Getting a big bro!! I <3 Sigma Chi

*Formal

*MORE exchanges!

*My classes!! Seriously, I know I'm a nerd but I really like my classes this quarter!

*Rearranging our room once I get back to SD! (hey it's the party room so I gotta make it look good)

*Chapter Serenades

*Greek Week

*More fun nights with F-House ( seriously.. i love you guys)

*Girl's Night with my Kappas... we sure love to eat!

*Finding out mystery bio/history guy's name with Christina!

*Having American Idol nights in our room!

Lessons I've Learned...

*High School is okay... College is better

*If you weren't the shit in high school, no matter HOW cool you think you are in college.. people will still know you're a loser

*Do NOT- seriously DON'T make a gazillion jello shots with vodka and keep it in a small fridge. The smell does NOT go away and everything you put in that refrigerator after comes out tasting like vodka

*It's sad that really good friends lose touch but then again you meet new friends to fill up that void

*It really is a SMALL world, you are connected with everyone somehow

*Coincidences happen, but it doesn't mean it's fate

*Waking up earlier than 9 am is RARE in my life now.. it's sad because I used to wake up everyday at 6 am

*I can't live without F.R.I.E.N.D.S... really I can't

*People will never cease to surprise you...

Alright, well I probably won't update for awhile.. but at least when I do.. I make it worth the wait =)

AHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Okay, guys... I'm asking for some help here~

My sorority is participating in the American Cancer Society's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk this sunday @ Balboa park in San Diego.

Since most of you cannot physically participate in this walk, I am asking you all personally to donate however much you can EVEN if it's just a small donation to help fight against breast cancer and help the Kappa Kappa Gammas of UCSD raise money for this walk. I will be personally be walking 4.5 miles in honor of my dear friend Holly's mom Julie who passed away recently due to breast cancer. So please, be a kind soul and help donate to help me and my sisters of Kappa Kappa Gamma!

It's REAAAALLLY easy to donate:
