I'm so tired!  I don't even know why...maybe cuz I've been busy with homework these past two days added on to going to work and school and spending time with Tommy...and taking care of business with the accident...Hopefully this three-day weekend will be a good relaxing one! 

Lemme re-cap my Valentine's day/weekend:

Me and Tommy went shopping two days in a row...I bought him a shirt from Abercrombie for V-day and he bought me clothes from American Eagle.  We saw Lovell there on Monday cuz thats when we celebrated V-day since I had work AND school on the actual day of Valentine's.  We went to eat at Red Lobster which was my first time there and it was pretty good!  We didn't watch a movie cuz all the movies they were showing were sorry so we just headed to Delano and chilled....on V-day I went to work, hung out with Tommy till I went to class...luckily our teacher let us out a bit early so we went to eat dinner at Denny's since Perko's was hella packed that night.  Oh yeah, Tommy got me balloons and flowers and a stuffed animal right when I got out of class too even though I told him not to since we just got in a car accident and he's gonna need the money...but he still bought me stuff anyway....yeah he's stubborn...but I love him!  =) 

This whole week...my back and neck have been killing me, I really need to go to a massage therapist cuz damn, I'm relying on my ibuprofen to keep me comfortable when I'm sitting, standing and laying down!  My back for some reason mostly hurts at night...I dunno its weird....

This Monday is gonna be our 11th month anniversary!!!  Whew we're almost at our first year....man its been filled with so many ups and downs....but we're sticking by each other and staying strong.  I love him so so so so so so so much!  I need to think of a one year anniversary gift and fast cuz I WAS gonna get him "something" for his car...something that he wanted for a long ass time but now that our baby *yes, the car* is hurt, I gotta think of something else....any suggestions?!?  Well I guess thats it for now...gotta get back to doing some homework! 

THANK YOU GOD THAT ALL OF US ARE ALIVE......

Yesterday, Feb. 7 was supposed to be a good day....it was my Kuya Emil's birthday and me and my family celebrated it at Bakersfield....I skipped class because I wanted to be with my family....and we all ate at Chinatown Buffet and came home after that so my parents, my kuya and my sister-in-law could head off to Lemoore....

It was around 8:15 pm and Tommy was driving us (me, my lil sis., my lil bro. and my nephew) down Browning Rd. to drop my nephew home.....we were driving the normal speed limit and everything....and there were two cars in front of us....one car, one van....and one car behind us.....

The first vehicle (the van) stopped and was signaling to turn left onto 20th, the car right ahead of us passed the van because it was already starting to turn....then all of a sudden the van swerves to turn right instead... like the driver didn't even see there was another car behind them.  THEN....BAM! Its too late to stop and Tommy's car hits the motherfucker's van and it flipped the van over.....OMG that was the single most scariest moment in my life.  I never knew how it felt like to think you were gonna die right then and there.  It scared me senseless....I can still picture that van flipping over and going crazy...crying and screaming praying that none of us were hurt......UGHHH!  I am so thankful that Tommy's car was the only thing that was damaged from us and even though our backs and necks really hurt.... we didn't get critically injured.....or worse.   I don't know what in the world I would have done if I lost any of them...I just hope we get this case settled....BUT that stupid ass motherfucker that didn't know how to drive...HE DIDN'T HAVE A LICENSE OR ANY INSURANCE!!!!  WE DON'T EVEN KNOW IF HE'S HERE LEGALLY OR IS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN! 

Ooo and the nerve of that guy...he was gonna have one of his friends tow the van...which was completely wrecked...Trying to take evidence away from the scene!  I swear some people are fucking idiots!!!  Him and his friend that was in the car were gonna run too! But the cops got there on time and had the van impounded.... Dumbasses!!!!!!  I'm sorry but I'm fuckin mad....me and Lorena rode on the ambulance and my family and Tommy followed....I ended up staying in the hospital till about 1:30 this morning.....and Tommy's car is wrecked in the front.  We're gonna sue that guy for everything we can but we're worried he might actually cross back over the fuckin' border!  Poor Tommy though....he seems so lost without his car....like he gets teary-eyed cuz he doesn't know what to do...and we both keep having flashbacks....well I guess I should stop now before I start to get emotional again...I need some rest.....bye guys....and if you're gonna drive...watch out for idiots cuz even if you drive safe...there's always people out there who'll screw you over!

Well 2006 has just begun and I've already had a few personal issues...but through it all, Tommy's been helping me...without him I'd probably be going through a nervous breakdown by now....but, he's still here by my side, weathering the storm with me.  I just hope that when school starts up again (high school for my work and BC for my classes), I'll be able to put the things that have been bothering me to the back of my mind.  I do have a few things to look forward to though, like snowboarding next weekend and getting off my lazy ass since thats all I've been doing this winter break. 

Seriously, I need a change of scenery.  All I've done was spend time with Tommy or stay home most of the time.  I like spending time with Tommy of course but always staying home makes me bored!  Today was nice though cuz I actually spent time with my family and we all went to Bakersfield.  Tomorrow is gonna be blockbuster night for me, Tommy, my bro and sis since I go back to work on Monday and I gotta be up bright and early for that!  Ah, how I miss waking up at 7 in the morning....NOT! 

This semester I'm gonna try to handle being a full-time student.  If I can do that and take English B1b during summer I will finally be done at BC!  Thank you Lord!  Its been hard...having all this pressure from my parents...wanting me to finish school already and have a good career before Tommy and I settle down...but I know their intentions are in the right place.  I cannot wait to transfer already though so that Tommy and I can move...heck, even if we move to Bakersfield I'd be fine with it!  But as long as I'm working here and going to school here, might as well save money by living at our parent's houses...well in his case, his grandparent's.  Yeah, I'm a freeloader when it comes to where I live but so what, my parents don't want me to move out anyway!  haha...they loooove me  ;)

Anyway, I've done a bit of cleaning around the house...throwing and giving away "gifts" that I'd received from people I'd rather not have thoughts about anymore haha aaaand I've also deleted quite a few blogs on my xanga...memories I'd rather not recall.  I've closed a helluva lot of chapters in 2005 but I've also opened alot of new ones....soooo....I'm praying this year will be a good year. 

Oh yeah and I just read Jovi's blog cuz I haven't been on xanga this past week and dang girl!  I didn't know you're planning on leaving so soon!!!  If you do, I'mma miss you but I wish you nothing but the best at the new school/city you're gonna be at!
