chains

forreal, i dont like how im so chained up even if im 18. freakin, i've been home for almost a week and i havent asked or hinted i wanted to go chill with friends or just go out. apparently i have to still ask for permission to go out, and on top of that i get the "you better be with so and so" speech along with the permission. fckn, really? im in college now and i go out all the time. ooh lets compare to the young bruh shall we? while im asking, my bruh is walking out the door saying "be back later" parents dont even ask who hes going to be with, just say "okay" woww! forreal? ugh, i really hate how i have the chains, and i live away from home. dont get me wrong, i love being home, i just hate the chains when they arent necessary. basically, i wanna go back to san jose and come home just for the day sometimes. hella sad ikno, but c'mon who needs to ask for permission to go out and get the speech at the same time; just say "who you goina be with..okay" thas it?! ughh. okay done

SummerTime in SanJo

So, summer has begun and it started off oh so sweetly. New upgraded apartment with Sissuh Ange, Mel, Bree and Cryil make it all worth the wait. I can't express how greatful to have found such great friends at SJSU. The past school year has definately been the biggest Hawaiian roller coaster ride but it was fun to ride it.

Fall08: Akbayan family. New friends
Spring09: PCN was the experience of a life-time. I actually conquered my fear of the stage and sung in front of hundreds of people && my family. Althought from the very beginning, one person didn't support me to the fullest, I proved that person I am capable of doing what I set my mind to. I had a blast at PCN and met soo many great people.
Moving into the Colonades is soo exciting! New roomies too :)
Summer09: new boyfriend as of M2four9: JTLetuli. My very own Crazy Polynesian. More to come as summer gets more crackin every day :)

done.

i'm done with my freshmen year of college. very bittersweet. right now i'm running on 0 hours of sleep...let's move passed that.

"chivalry isn't dead, it's just in a coma."

being chivalrous was never overrated. whoever said that decided to give up. and there's nothing worse than someone who gives up. work to love yourself so you can love others.

just live your life,
angie.

finals, yuck.

sorry. it's finals. if you came here looking for more well here it is. it's a beautiful day in san jose, ca and i wouldn't have it any other way.

"prayers go up, blessings come down."

realize your own miracles. don't rely on nature to create something that isn't there. create your own fate and realize your own miracles! truth truth truh.
stay strong during finals everyone! the school year is winding down.

what keeps me going,
angie.

day 4.

yes, i found myself dooubting my new outlook last night. sometime's things are easier said than done. but honestly, without doubt...life's always gonna be good you just need to open your eyes to it. so here comes another one:

"Life's good. Everyone just overreacts."

or overanalyzes life. this is from a postsecret postcard that i use as the wallpaper of my phone. it's a constant reminder that life is good! life will always be good, we're the ones that make it less than what it is. love your life...because you only live it once.

just live your life,
angie.

round 3, fight. lmao.

so day 3. here we go here we go.

"why do we work overtime looking for that someone? and when we find that special someone then the love turns part-time"

yeah, so i found this on my friend's facebook and i just needed to share that. idk if it's from a song or book or whatever. it's the truth. why should we focus our efforts towards our goal and when we reach the goal we settle? shouldn't we continue in hopes to better ourselves?

so why am i doing all of this? cause honestly...when life gets you down and you need that motivation to stay positive it's hard to find the right thing to say right? this is a written, digital form of the way i feel now and the way i motivate myself to feel in the future. life's good ya'll we just need to see it and appreciate it.

just live your life,
angie.

day 2

"life's a beautiful struggle."

-nothing can be more true than this statement. take the bad with the good and don't look back. without the struggle, hardship, sweat, and tears life wouldn't be worthwhile.

just live your life,
angie.
