Concluding a fine year of 2010.
It’s been a great year with both old and new friends and random people. I’m glad I had the opportunity to create and share memories with the people in my life. BBoys Anonymous has brought me many friends and given me numerous responsibilities that have helped me grow as an individual. My job at the bookstore has brought me new friends that I can depend on. I’m glad I work in such...

I had my first unproductive session at Homeland.
It didn’t feel all that great obviously. Maybe it’s because I’m sick, or because I was tired from work, or I wasn’t relaxed, I can make up all these excuses, but the fact of the matter is that I wasn’t focused.
I ended up watching other people dance and trying to come up with new ideas. I came up with a few new concepts (not bites, I promise!) that I want to take a...

I like how I meet someone new at Homeland...
So far, I feel most comfortable sessioning at Homeland. Despite most people being in their own groups, there are those few that take the time to talk to others or just make random comments to others which spurs introductions and getting to know each other.
It’s nice being around dancers but not talking about dancing. Not that I don’t like discussing dance, it’s just a reminder...
Focus, Motivation, and Daydreaming
Maybe some of you haven’t noticed, but I’m really big on maintaining focus and keeping goals in perspective. With that, you’d assume that hard work and motivation play a large factor in my life—which they do. However, with those things also comes daydreaming and resting.
This is something that I’ve noticed a lot of people in college don’t realize. You’ll...

It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are a lot of things about yourself that you didn’t know and may or may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now.
You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you...
A Disappointing Christmas
It was nothing special, as usual. I didn’t get to do what my brother and I had planned. My parents are still stressed. I was just happy that my mom got to sleep early and get her rest.
It wasn’t a bad Christmas, it just wasn’t anywhere near a great one. Well, what can I do? Life goes on. There will be more Christmas nights to come.
Hopefully everyone else had a great Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone!
Be happy! Bond with those that you care about. Let them know that you love them. Stay safe. Have fun!
End the year on a good note and start the new year on an even better one!

Determination
Malida: As weird as it may sound to you, people are amazed at your determination and what not. believe me -_-
David: example or no i don't believe you
Malida: whenever you come up in a conversation it normally follows: "he's so determined in everything he does, it's crazy"
David: lolwtf
Malida: yes. just believe me. people do say that. lol

Snowboarding at Mountain High!
I snowboarded for the first time on Thursday. The group comprised of Jeff, Jesse, Kent and myself. I had only met Jesse and Kent at 6am that morning. Jesse was our driver. We had planned on going to Snow Valley because tickets were only $18. However, due to circumstances and complexities we ended up going to Mountain High, which was completely fine with. We had already driven there so I...
Work Followed by Co-Worker Bonding!
Work on Wednesday was ridiculously tiring but it was all worth it once we got off. We had a supplies department dinner and kickback that night.
Kevin and I brought the drinks and chips. Jeff brought spam musubi. Amara brought Costco pizza. Kristine made spaghetti. Elaine brought ice cream. Sophia made nutella banana crepes. Esther made spicy pork. It was a delicious dinner.
It was a great...

Things I Need
Now I use the word “need” in the strictest form. I’m not saying “omg i need dis stuf bcuz their so sexy.” I mean I “need” as in I’m going to fuck up my body if I don’t get these soon. My current Puma Suedes are a size small and have holes in them so they’ve been hurting my feet a lot. I don’t wear a cap when I dance so if I do...

I remember a few years ago in high school when I would take the bus home, the buses were crowded. You couldn’t walk from one end to the other without bumping into someone or smelling someone’s disgusting body odor. Often times, an old lady would get on the bus after paying her senior citizen discounted fee and take a quick glance of the bus from front to back—no seats. I get up...

It’s like “Hey, go fucking do something.”
Go read a book. Go download music. Go make music. Go dance, sing, watch TV, learn to cook, educate yourself, talk to your parents, learn about your culture, take a walk, go exercise, take a step outside and breathe in the fresh air.
Go reflect on your life. Are you satisfied with where you’re at? Where do you want to go? What are...

I think about the effect Alzheimers has on people everyday. Too much.

Goals for Winter Break
Get one perfect flare and transitions into and out of it
Wake up at 6am everyday
Read at least 3 books
Start taking multivitamins
Getting them flares and that flavor. Failing at waking up. Starting a book tonight. Gotta buy multivitamins.
At least I’m doing one thing right.
3.0 GPA for fall quarter?
Fuck this shit.
Homeland
I sessioned at Homeland today despite the fact that it was popping, locking, and wacking night. It was an amazing experience. I actually practice rather than sit around and stare at others practice. I felt the energy from the other dancers although it was some pretty intimidating energy. I met some people and became even more motivated to train even HARDER. It’s getting pretty ridiculous how...
Getty Museum and Santa Monica with Shane
We couldn’t hang out on our actual anniversary because of finals, but it’s better to hang have a date later than not at all.
I picked her up around 12pm and we left for the Getty Museum. It was extremely nice. We didn’t pay much attention to the paintings and sculptures because we were more interested in the architecture than anything. We took the architecture tour and learned...
Obey Sale, Shopping, First Battle Experience, and...
Shane and I woke up early to go to the second day of the Obey sale. We stood in line for about three hours. There wasn’t anything nice so we left empty-handed. We hit up Irvine Spectrum to go shopping and Shane ended up getting some tops while I got nothing. Shopping is tough. We headed back to Irvine, cooked, ate, and napped.
Then it was time for the jam. Dale and I sessioned for a bit...
December 6th - December 10: Finals Week
Monday: I had my art history final. I felt that I knew most of the material and got almost everything correct. I chilled for three hours afterward and went to work. After work, I studied like mad for biology and organic chemistry.
Tuesday: It was mine and Shane’s anniversary. We didn’t do anything because we knew we had to study. It was chill, though. I had work and we studied at...
Finals stress pimple breakout! WOOO!
Happy Anniversary Shane M. Agra!
We’ve had our ups and downs but I still love you! I’m disappointed that it’s finals week so we can’t do anything on our actual anniversary date since we’re both busy studying for that stupid ochem final. Ugh. I’m glad we’ve made it this far, honey and I’m extremely grateful to have you. (:
I love talented and hard-working people so much.
Dropped $100 on these jeans.

Should have cost more but I got a discount. :D
I believe I deserve these jeans. I work my ass off.
SO EXCITED
