wow. jeff ong's graduation party was very well organized. very nice speeches and toasts, and everyone was tearing up the dance floor.

but, yeah. can you believe, that later TODAY, we will be graduating from high school?!? it's so..surreal, almost. like jeff said, it really is just like a dream. in a way, i also feel like starting all over, doing things differently, but in the wise words of jeff, there will always come the time when everyone has to go their separate ways.

*sigh* i hope i don't cry at graduation.

busy busy day. hadda go to the final activity day today at school..
my dad dropped me off at xiao's house in the morning, and then at about 9:45, alex picked us up. today was "movie day," which basically consisted of doing anything BUT watching the movie. everyone signed yearbooks, took pictures, settled debts =P, and planned out the rest of the afternoon. when it was time to go, there was still an entire trash can full of drinks left, so alex and i stuffed xiao's backpack with about 9 drinks. as we were walking out, an assistant principal caught some kid trying to take 3 cans out and made him put the drinks back. lol.

anyways, my dad picked me up from alex's house at about 11:35 to go to the municipal court in missouri city to take care of my ticket that i got from the car accident, but when we got there, i found out that i needed to show proof of insurance, which i did not have. that sucked. so, we went to the AAA office to get a copy, and after that went to go eat at pho saigon. ah, good stuff. afterwards, stopped by fcms to pick up bro and masie and debbie (his friends) and dropped them off at the mall. THEN we proceeded back to the municipal court. by the time we finished, it was about 2:00, so my dad offered to drop me off at alex's house, where we perfected the potato gun. we shot potatoes into the lake behind his house. one potato actually CLEARED the lake. it was cool. now the gun works every single time.

at about 5:00, i headed to swcc to go to work. i was scheduled to work 5-9, and everything was going nice and slow until about 8:30. half an hour before we closed, 20 people walked in. what the crap. so, yeah. pretty busy at the end. but anyways, at about 10:00, scott and xiao picked me up, and after picking up alex, we went to steven tso's house to wish him farewell (he's leaving for cali tomorrow). we even managed to show him a quick demonstration with our rocket launcher. er, i mean, our potato gun. wow, it was loud. we fired 2 times. 1st time into a wall, where the potato basically disentegrated (no joke). we couldn't find any trace of it. then 2nd time we shot for distance, and the potato flew about 120 yards. yikes!

blah. long day. me tired. bye bye.

wow another nice day =)

mmmmmk. it's time to blog.

let's see. what's been happening? lots.

today was the first activitiy day. quite fun, i guess. went to school to play ultimate frisbee.

after it was over, xiao, alex, simon, peter, scott, and i all headed to home depot, where we bought all the supplies we needed to make a potato gun.

it took a while, but we finally left home depot to go to academy to buy a lighter thingie, the last piece of the puzzle.

then simon and peter went home while the rest of us went to my house to assemble the spud shooter. it was pretty exciting, i must say. the only ammo we had was those squishy stress reliever balls. the 1st shot only went 10 feet or so, but we were still jumping around like little girls with all the excitement. the 2nd shot went 20 feet. we finally hit the jackpot with the 3rd shot, which flew over 2 fences into my neighbor's yard (and remember, i have an empty field next to my house too).

next we went to kroger's to buy potatoes. our first shot with a potato was shot at close range. we aimed at a brick pillar, and..BOOM!! the potato shot out of the gun and splattered against the bricks! there was barely even a trace of any potato left!!

after a few more tweaks, we tried a few shots at the golf course. here were the official job assignments:

xiao - gun holder
me - sprayer
alex - capper
scott - shooter

we loaded the gun...and...BOOM!! the potato flew about 150 yards!!! haha and the next shot was about 175!!

by that time, it was about 5:00, so we all packed up and went to colony bend to play football. i got a few scratches, but it was rather fun.

alex took me home, then simon came over, then simon ate dinner at my house (i owed him one =P ), then alex, scott, and xiao came over, then we tried the gun again, then the lighter thingie broke. blah. so, tomorrow, we fix it and then make another one ;)

ah..good times, good times.

tired..
