| cried myself to sleep, woke up at least 10 times in the middle of the night, tossed and turned the whole time while sleeping. dreamt i got an email from her saying there was a "hostage rescue game" on March 22, meaning that i probably failed to save her from something. also dreamt i had some kind of Mandarin performance, which i couldnt do, symbolizing my failure with her. What do i do when she won't give me a chance to redeem myself? I used to be able to have fun, knowing she was there, knowing she was ok, now i cant think of anything else. i can't have fun when i know she's upset. no matter what it is i'm doing. does that make sense? What am i supposed to do to show that i really am always there?

| 9/28/2006. The day i became legal
Thanks all for a great day. The facebook bday wishes kept coming throughout the day. but that's not why i'm writing this. I had possibly the best bday i could ask for, and i have two ppl to thank for that. Well, two ppl who orchestrated most of it.
My beloved Maryann Wang and my awesome roomie Owen Fong.
so here's how it goes. 2005 on this day, i was forgotten pretty much by some of the ppl i though i was closest to. so this year i expected no more than that, and at best some recognition. thats all i ever want on my bdays nowadays. this one was so over the top i was speechless.
i may have set it up so that it could happen. last week while figuring out a way home for the weekend i let on i wanted to go back to arcadia from irvine on thursday. owen said he had classes on friday, but so do i. so i told him to figure out why i wanted to go back. and apparently he did, and knowing i was starting to think he'd forget again, decided to hatch a plan to blow me away. which he did. he acted clueless at the most critical moments, especially wednesday night 3am (technically thursday) when he appeared to not realize it at all. so in the morning, after i listen to KIIS for the 8.10 birthday giveaway (which was kind of a *coughbirthdaycough* style tip), Owen busts out this bball he's been hiding all week with personal messages from my two oldest friends, Eric Leung and Owen himself. And i also receive Maryann's package containing some very personalized gifts, and a heartfelt love letter at its center. I also discover that i have an ice cream treat waiting for me courtesy of my roommates and possible through Owen's suggestion to them. This was so unexpected, and so much of it right under my nose that i was amazed i didnt catch on to any of it. apparently over the weekend owen had gotten the ball and gotten it signed. also, earlier in the week he had told our other roommates. he also collaborated with Maryann to take me home so i could see her on this special day. apparently i was quite close to discovering some of these plans, but somehow everything fell into place. i was and still am overwhelmed by this act. i'm also ashamed that i didn't have more faith in one of my oldest and closest friends. the day itself turned out much better than expected, exponentially, because i was in fact expecting nearly nothing at all.
Thanks again to you, Owen. You got me good and i'm glad that i have better friends than i think i do.
And as always, thanks to Maryann for making it happen. I love you so much.
Now to go ball and have some more fun tonight.

| my dad surprised me on friday.
we went to tony romas for dinner.
no that wasnt the surprise.
before dinner we went to office depot so my dad could get CD's. compusa was right next door so we went there too.
i go to games section, dad follows me to where CDs are on the way.
5 minutes later he's calling for me
he's standing by the laptops section
SURPRISE i'm getting a laptop!
he acted as if he couldnt find the CD's in office depot. and when we got back to the car after compusa, i realized "you didnt buy any CDs did you"
last time he did something like this it was my ps2. way back about 4 or 5 years ago. took me to best buy around closing time. "oh no, its closing, get it some other time". and then when we get home, its sitting in front of the TV in my room.
he's sneaky. i need to do this when i have kids. | | |
