Texas update

It's been more than a week since we went to Texas, and I still haven't blogged about it. So here it goes :]

We left our house Friday evening around 5. Dad drove and we went to Denny's for dinner at Blythe, CA around 10pm. Burnt my tongue from super hot coffee before I drove across 2 state lines, Cali-Ariz & Ariz-New Mexico. [I hate the "photo enforced areas" in Arizona btw. You HAVE to slow down to the speed limit, if not you'll have a nice picture of your car speeding -__- ] Drove from 11pm-5am straight, just stopping for gas. I knocked out soon after we switched and we finally got to El Paso a little after 9am. From there, still drowsy from the long drive, I had to the Fil-Am church before Sweetie&Cutie had practice for their youth play.

Oh yeah, I should probably mention who we were visiting. The Lasala's at El Paso, TX
They are Tito Junar, Tita Jasmine, Sweetie, Cutie, Honey, and Apple.
& of course, those are just the kid's nick names.

It was good to see them, I missed them, hadn't seen them since they visited us at the house in panorama city last spring break.

So we got back from the church at around 1pm. I knocked out at around 3pm, since I barely got any sleep the night before from all the driving. Felt good& rested when I awoke to a quiet house. Turns out they left to eat at Sonic's and to their Worship practice without me. But it was all good, I needed the rest anyways.

For dinner we went to this mexican restaurant called El Taco Tote. I was pretty excited because from all the times that we've been to El Paso, which is like right next to the boder, we've never actually eaten mexican food while we were there. I liked the condiment bar that they had. All the [mexican] spices, sauces, condiments you could think of were there, preetttyy cool.
The food was pretty good, had some chips& salsa and about 5 tacos. Though my still burnt tongue annoyed the heck out of me while I was eating, totally satisfied that night.

Can't Help But Wait

So I started typing this entry Monday night but got tired& went to bed. So it's now Wednesday and still not done. Oh wells, here it is anyways.




"It's about 11:30pm and Jay Leno's about to start, but I'll just do this anyway.

Firstly, I had a realllly long weekend.

Lemme start off with Friday.
School didn't feel like such a drag because we were going over Chapter 20, the Reproductive System. There was one section where Dr Hany started talking about circumcision. I couldn't help but cringe when he went into specific details about the procedure. And did you know that the gunk that accumulates between the head and foreskin is because of some gland? And that the older you are, the harder the procedure is? I was glad that I got it when I was about 11. I can't begin to imagine getting the procedure now, how horrible that experience would be.

Anyways, I decided to go get some La Estrella after school. Actually, I made my final decision after some idiot almost hit me while switching lanes. I was on lane next to the fast lane on the 210W, just passed Pasedena, when some subaru recklessly switches lanes. My front bumper was right next to his rear windows when I see him start to move toward my car without hesitation. I immediately step on the brakes and push hard on the horn. I was on the brakes for a good 2 seconds. If I didn't brake like I had, he would have for sure hit me. I thought to myself, WTF!? WTF is your problem!? It's called CHECKING YOUR BLIND SPOT! He managed to completely destroy my calmness while I was driving. I sped up , switched lanes, and thought about confronting him but I decide to just speed by, passing him.
I was Pretty pissed off, but managed to cool down with a carne asada burrito con todo from La Estrella & iced black tea from Starbucks :D"

So everything about this sentence, meaning ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ was written Monday night.

Anyways, our last quiz for A&P(Anatomy& Physiology) is tomorow, Thursday.
& no school on Friday because it's Good Friday(one good thing bout having a Catholic Filipina as our school president :D)
Also, super excited for this weekend, family's going to El Paso, Texas.
woohooooo! Hello white girls! ...uhh I mean driving at least half of that 13hr roadtrip -_-
