| once again.. it's been a while.. haha.. but what do i have to update on? not an awful lot school - not going to well.. I know for sure that if I didn't have a certain buddy.. this semester woulda been over for me and I prob woulda gotten either kicked out of UT or on super probation.. without him, I would be ever so screwed.. I owe you buddy... u know who u are! him helping me is only pushing me further to make more progress in my self paced class.. if i fail it this semester.. my major gpa goes way down.. and EE would not let me go on anymore.. and that would be a waste of 2 years of my life... so yea.. i HAVE to pass it social life - im cutting down on this a LOT.. aside from activities that i have to attend for CSA and ABSA, im not doing anything else, no poker... no pool.. no games.. no nothing.. im gonna try and become a hermit and just study a lot now.. from now until winter break.. next semester will be a whole new story.. cuz i've learned to cut down on my major classes and take low hrs with classes like.. ballroom dancing =) personal - so for myself.. I've been keeping pictures of my proud culinary works.. u might have seen the cheesecake from way back when.. today for dinner.. i've made... Chicken and Seafood Alfredo!
 believe me.. it was good.. im sure Will Tran can attest =P.. and to all of you that i've invited to come over and eat.. u missed out =) maybe next time! im always free to cook.. oh.. cept for this semester.. i dont think imma be makin anything big anymore.. no timeeeee!! cept for ABSA Family Potluck.. which i plan on making a scrumptious dessert.. yay! until next time, Jonathan |

- come back to apt after class and study
- eat dinner then study some more or just do random stuff
- go out weekends and hang out with ppl/study so yea.. thats my life.. i dont really do much of anything anymore so if someone wants to hang out anyday after 2.. just lemme know =) what i HAVE been doing tho.. is makin random food.. made some soup noodles.. bulgolgi.. galbi ribs.. cheesecake.. and sooo much other food... i think i'm pretty much done perfecting the cheesecake now =) .. and here it is.. my latest creation: 
i topped it off with ground roasted almonds with chocolate chunks and roasted almonds on top.. not sure how this will make it taste.. but looks good =)
