been cooped up in the house since i got back from vacation. went out last night with good company. we cramped 4 girls and 3 guys in Oliver's 4-runner. Yikes, tight ride all the way haha! Met up with Arias, Cyrus, Alej, and Jennelyn.
funny:
-how it took us about a good 2 hours to convince jlee she wanted to come out with us.
-every time this group is together no one can make a decision
-finally on our way out odesa calls back and needs a ride.
-it honestly took a good 4 hours to get to HPC!
annoying how guys @HPC:
-are just as bad/disrespectful as Ybor guys
-are old drunks that hit on you
-hey think they can grab and grope at you when you walk by (and no, none of the girls dress trashy!)
-think they can say "hey beautiful" and think you will stop to chit chat
overall: fun fun night! | | |
| GRR! Jetlag stinks. Everyone is sleepin' and I'm up listening to MTV music videos. Eh... I guess I'll stay online until I get sleepy huh. Here are pictures from day 2...
9am, with my cousin Lian and Godchild Jazley Aliza,
don't know the kid in the floater.
That's Diamond Head behind us, an inactive volcano.
This is the beach literally 15 feet from the back way of our hotel.
at Cheesecake Factory for lunch, minus KitKat,
she was on her smoke-break again.
me and the fake waterfall, teehee
the guys and baby
whatcha see at the lobby of our hotel, it's outdoors, cool huh
buildings out there are real old, but the scenery is breath-taking
that's my cousin in the air, just jumped off the rocks
ehh...
my nephew Harley loves sand. he thinks its "rice"
he kept saying "I have rice in my eyes!"
my cousin Aprile (Jazley's mother), both sweethearts!
heh
Jon, John, and Harley watching the sunset. How cute.
girls didn't want to swim..so we posed on the rocks
the beach before we left...
Well, that's day 2, there's so many more pictures but I think this is enough. Until next time, or when I can't sleep again, XOXO MG | | |
| What a long frikken day. I just got home from Hawaii. I'm drained and sleepy. I still can't believe I've been blessed to see such a place, not even that, but to be able to spend time with good-ass company. I love my family, my cousins, goddaughter, friends. I love them all. If they were a different group on this trip, I know the turn-out would have been completely different.
I'm thankful for everything I got to experience, the sights, the oddness/uniqueness of tourists/locals wandering the streets. I'm thankful for the food we ate, taxi cabs, bellboys (grins), surfer boys, that hot japanese guy at marqet, drizzle on hot sunny days, awesome beaches, banana boats, jetskiing, our hot bod jetski guy, clubbing, "the rocks" and the cave at the beach, poke, buttery nipples, coronas, jellyfish that we can actually hold in our palms, the market place, bargaining at the booths, buying baby formula and beer at the grocery store, buying boxes and boxes of chocolate everyday...FIRST NIGHT.
We don't wanna sleep here, "but it's for Jazley's sake...",
"Oh, it's only 20 minutes away" which actually meant "1 hour drive!",
"We're waking up at 6am and going out",
"I'm never gonna drink ever again!",
"Lloyd's my partner!"
"I'm first..."
"I'm second..."
Walk 5 minutes, rest 5 minutes "wait for me, I gotta pee!",
shoves and pushes and slams the door shut!
"Ok, she needs to shut up..."
"How many times did you guys take pictures with this waterfall? It's not even real!"
and many many more.
Days in Hawaii definitely go by slow. It felt like I was on vaca for a month or so. It was awesome! Awesome! Awesome! We're all going back but to a different island. I can't wait! | | |
| Saturday went to Amp with some friends to watch DHT perform "Listen to Your Heart" and let me just say I felt like I was in the 80's. Although it was techno night, the crowd, oh goodness, I don't know how to describe the crowd that night. It was weeeeiiirrrd. Buncha weirdos, but at least they all looked like they were havin fun. We tried to drink, but I could not enjoy my drinks for the life of me! DHT didn't perform until 1:30am, and I really wanted to leave already. But whatev. It was still fun.
listen to your heart, when he's calling for you
listen to your heart, there's nothing else you can do
i don't know where you're going
and i don't know why
listen to your heart, before you tell him good-byyyeee.
We went out to dinner last night. The group was so indecisive! From pho to italian to mexican to sushi then back to italian. It was freakin' weird but we laughed a lot. We got 3 doggy bags and forgot all 3 at the table! There goes Arnel's lunch that I paid for! Bleh, all that cheese gave me the farts anyway.
they cleaned their plates already and they're still thinkin' about who's gonna grab that last piece of bread first!
ok, fine. so we had drinks...
aaaaahhh!!!
 I dyed my hair darker. I love it. Well, ya can't really tell, but it has a more natural look. That's what I think. Whatever.
OMGosh, I'm the worst dj ever. If you trust me to sit in the passenger seat you better believe I'm gonna mess with that radio. Oliver's IPOD is so freakin' cool! He has so many different artists/music on that thing we couldn't even finish ONE song! They're all dancing and singing lyrics to a song all of a sudden I start another song, hahahah! Ugh, I love that thing. I want one. Who wants to get me one? Black, silver, blue, I don't care, just not PINK! Heh.

| GRATEFUL: birthday & life!
...in 15 minutes...
happy birthday!!!
may you have a wonderful birthday and a very blessed year!
keep on praying b/c God will not fail to answer your prayers.
so life has been hectic, boring, stressful, sad, happy, thankful, etc all at once. i never knew i could ever feel all these emotions all at once. the break up really opened up my eyes to so many different things. ive already come to the realization that it happened for the best. im grateful. so, over the past week, i have made a million and a half life-changing decisions.
i have been:
-spending more time with family
-praying/reading my bible and actually applying what ive learned
-thinking more positively (no more prejudging and swearing)
-going to next wk's bible study meeting
-determined to meet nice Christian people and hopefully marry a nice, loving, honest, faithful Christian guy a few years down the road!
-dropping the party-animal in me at the zoo
-realize i can't hide my pain behind partying and drinking anymore
-i've always known i can lean on God during good/bad times, but im applying it more now than i ever have
-i promised to share the Word more b/c ive broken that promise 1 too many times
-AND not to hate even those who have done me wrong
hmm, so much more. i have a headache and i cant think. im goin to bed, but before i end this.... here's a very helpful verse:
Psalms 46:1
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble. | | |
