My brother finally bought MW2. I don't think we'll be getting the tv back anytime soon. lol. Good thing my family doesn't really watch tv much.
Maybe I'll start to play too.
I'm not looking forward to Keo being deployed again. It feels like he just got home. How many more of my friends are gonna be overseas next year.. I don't even want to think about it.
I realized, I hold a soft spot for military guys. I guess it started off with Johnny. I got so used to being in that situation that it makes me comfortable. It's something I know, and something I've gotten used to over the years.
My friends used to joke around and say that it was because I love a man in uniform. However, that's not really the case. I never found it to be sexy. (Plus, not all the military guys I dated in the past were enlisted when I met them, some enlisted after I was out of their lives.) Maybe it's the discipline, or the way that most of them know what they want and they want to settle down. But, I can't really say it's that either. I mean, I'm far from wanting to be married off, let alone married to someone who can leave me and our family at any second (ie deployments).
I don't know what it is exactly. I don't think I'll ever figure out why. But honestly, I think it's just the comfort of KNOWING. Knowing what to expect and knowing what's going on, understanding that life. It was something I knew. Something I was a part of for a good chunk of my past.
Xiong asked me about my New Year's resolution. I didn't have one at first, but after realizing that I've been waking up pretty late lately. I decided my resolution would be to out of bed by 8am and hit the gym every morning by 10am.
I'm looking forward to Summer 2010.
Apparently, the sister and I will be heading to Germany. We decided while we're there, we'll take advantage of the time we have and try to hit as many European countries as we can before heading back to the states.
I also find it amusing that James will be coming home from Germany and I'll be going there. I miss that idiot. I'm still upset I didn't get a chance to spend some alone time with him before he left.
I told my parents I never wanted to go back to Vietnam after my grandpa passed away. But, now that I've gotten a bit older. I do want to go back. I just don't want to visit my relatives. I want to go back to that beautiful little beach resort and soak in the sun. I miss those days. I took those few weeks for granted. I was too hung up on what was going on back home. I was homesick, for nothing at all.
Next year is in less than 2 days.
I ramble on about nothing in particular. How do my friends deal with me? haha.
Don't judge a book by it's cover. Actually, don't judge anyone at all. It's gonna bite you in the ass one day.
Playing catch up with my reading. What am I reading? David Chiem's book, In the Depths of My Eyes. Throughout all the years I've known him, his words have ceased to amaze and entice me. I love his use of words. I love the poems he chose to include for me even more.
3 months to finish a book signing equals one hell of a friendship. I love you David :]

think twice before you judge me. first impressions arent always accurate.
family, friends, and school are my priorities. never fake, always true. true to myself, true to my friends, my family, my faith. .
i've been hurt before, i've fallen time and time again. eventually, i move on and grow stronger with every problem i endure.
i can be the most random and happy person you'll ever meet or the biggest bitch you've ever talked to, that all depends on you. i won't deal with any bullshiet, give me the respect i deserve and i'll do the same for you.
my trust is hard to gain, easy to lose. i have no tolerance for liars or cheaters.
music is my therapy and writing will always be my escape. singing keeps me calm.
fall and winter are my favorites. give me a rainy day cuddled up on the couch and i'll be all smiles.
coffee. tiger lilies. white roses. toki doki. cars. pool tables. bowling. milk chocolate w/ toffee.
