cold cherries are yummy on hot spring days

alright, so here`s my life from the past two days in a nutshell: ahem ahem. listen.
>>
friday was soph/senior brunch. it wasn`t bad, but it wasn`t great, but i still had a great time with my sisters. =). good times. camille did an awesome job singing for us. she was, by far, the best vocalist there. allison did this crazy ass tahitian booty shakin` which was fricken crazy. yeah, um, food sucked. that`s about all i can say.
saturday-sunday, looked at houses and hung out with my cousins. i felt bad because i didn`t get to go shopping with my rad cousin christine, but this past weekend was fun nonetheless. this past weekends was like one of those nostalgic summer weekends that my family and i always used to have. we used to chill and be bored and complain and take stupid trips to longs, and my cousin bryan is supposed to piss me off as usual until i SHOW that i`m all pissed off then he makes fun of me more. it`s just always been that way. it was fun. we just chilled in my manong stanley`s room for the majority of forever. it was weird because this past weekend was like the final countdown to when my grandparents were going to leave for the philippines. i mean, i know i`ll probably see them again. you know how filipinos get, they say they`ll never come back to the states, then they come back seven months later in december with pasalobong for their grandchildren and this yummy ass muhlach ensymada which i finished in, like, two days. but that`s all besides the point. i don`t know, when i was younger and i said goodbye to my grandparents, it was like no big thing. now it`s like...bye grandma bye grandpa...and you get all emotional inside because in all the time that they were here, you could have spent more time with them. i remember hugging my grandma and i tried to let go, but she held me tighter and wouldn`t let go, and in my mind i was thinking, "damnit grandma let me go or else i`m gonna cry." then she said something to me in ilocano which i wasn`t really paying attention to. then my cousin bryan came in and saved me from misery when he said, "hey how come you didn`t give me one of those caring hugs?!" hah. then i went outside and hugged my grandpa. it was strange because this is, like, the first year in like, 3 years that he`s remembered who i was. i remember when he came to my house for my parents` party and he was looking for me before anyone really came over. my tita was calling me to come downstairs because he was looking for me, and when i came downstairs he looked all happy like he was glad to see me since he hasn`t seen me in twelve years. it was cool. i felt bad, though, because i could`ve talked to him longer, but i couldn`t because i got distracted. damn distractions. this also reminds me of last time grandma was here, and my cousins and i visited her at our tita`s house (where she was staying) and we chilled with her on that hot summer day...just to say hi. i hadn`t done that before until that time...i didn`t think people just went over to their grandparents` house just to say hi. but it was fun. my grandma is a good conversationalist, and she`s just like us (her grandkids) except...older and plays cards all the day long. yep well...i`m going to not-so-smoothly change topics now.

i`ve been selfish lately. i`ve been a little depressed "me"problem girl. i haven`t given any thought to anything else besides me. i mean, yeah, school ends in 8 days and the world will be wonderful, but then there`s work, and SATs, and PSATs...which comes before SATs, actually, and tests, and junior year...AAAH, and i feel like everyone`s been pissing me off, when it probably isn`t even their fault. i`ve been selfish. i need to get a fricken life other than worrying about where i`m gonna go in life, i`m sure i`ll be just fine. ergh. get a hold of yourself, kathleen, you`re being a shithead.
