12:51 am	Long time coming... Dear god, how long has it been since I last posted here? I've made it through the frat alive and graduated from UCLA, and I've managed to survive general life, thus far. Lucky I was able to remember my password, right? I doubt I've talked to any of you in a long ass time. Holla!  (Comment on this)

11:37 am	Sigh... You know that feeling you get, when you meet somebody one time, then can't stop thinking about them? When it's something you never expect to happen, yet you know can't be easy to do? And you still think about her every single waking moment? That's how I feel. (3 Comments |Comment on this)

10:48 pm	You know what's a good feeling? Drinking in places that serve alcohol in America. Ah, Sepi's kicks ass. Time to hit up the parties tonight. (Comment on this)

2:44 pm	Finally finished moving into the fraternity house. I haven't had a full night's worth of sleep in days, but it's worth it to be sitting in my room now, TV set up, blasting music and kickin back with the swamp cooler on. Ah, life is good... Ah, about my birthday kickback. I'm shooting for the weekend after my birthday, either Friday, July 8 or Saturday, July 9. I'm going to try to make it a kegger, meaning the beer will be flowing. If you'd like to contribute harder stuff, feel free. So, those dates free, and I'll pick one when I figure out the exact details of this. If any of you need to know the address of my place (fraternity, not my old house), let me know. (Comment on this)

12:59 am	So this is it. The last week of my first year of college. I'm looking forward to two finals that I haven't even started studying for. I look back to what I've done in the past year, to how I've changed as a person since being in the last week of my senior year of high school. I see all the people I used to know back in high school, but my entire world has changed so much since those days. Sure, I have a lot of the same personality, but I'm still thrown into an entirely different place, a new set of circumstances. But I digress. Around the date of July 7, I'm trying to plan a birthday celebration/kickback at my fraternity house. If you know me, you're invited, just ask me for details in about a week, week and a half at most. Expect drinking, chilling, probably dancing, and definitely a good time. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

7:35 pm	Last call! Any of you want to come to Rosarito for a weekend, starting Friday and ending on Sunday, with the frat and myself? Only prerequisites are that you have to be female, and I have to know you. It'll be a weekend of partying, drinking, and fun. (Comment on this)

3:35 pm	Okay, we're having a fraternity formal event next week at the Brisas del Mar resort in Rosarito, Mexico, and I need a date. It's a beautiful beachside resort near Tijuana, Mexico, and the entire trip should be a lot of fun. I will cover all of the expenses, from room and board to food and drinks. We will leave here at UCLA Friday afternoon and get back around Sunday afternoon or evening. Let me know if you're interested and want more details on the event. I know it's a bit short notice, but if you're down to have a fun weekend, you should definitely try to come. (3 Comments |Comment on this)

2:47 am	I'm getting the odd feeling that I'm going nowhere with my life. I need a bit of motivation, someone to give me a reason to make something of myself. I feel like I live for the social life a bit too much now, and that I need to cut back, settle down a bit, and really start shuffling my feet in the right direction. It almost seems like impending thoughts of loneliness are inevitable, like maybe I'm not destined to be attractive to girls, or ever really wanted in any way. That maybe the about of enjoyment I had in high school and a portion of my college time was fleeting, only there to tease me and taunt my thoughts in the future. They say sex relieves stress and anger. And I have had a lot of stress and anger in me lately. I wanna get lucky. (3 Comments |Comment on this)

12:12 pm	So, our frat went to a philanthropy event yesterday at Malibu beach. William Shatner was there, and he passed a football to Albert. I ended up getting a lot of sun out there, to the point where I'm starting to worry about ending up with melanoma in 10 years. It was a pretty good time, though, despite it being volunteer work. We're having a date party tomorrow. Any girls free then and want to go with me? (3 Comments |Comment on this)

3:30 pm	This is to all you bitches who are gonna be in town tomorrow night. Theta Chi is having a party, island theme, tomorrow (5/13) night. It will likely start around 10:30-11:00 PM. If you're female, you'll be allowed right in. If you're male, contact me beforehand and I'll see if I can get you on the list, or you can make it easy and bring a girl for each guy in your group. The party will be at the Theta Chi house at UCLA. Contact me personally if you don't know where that is. I hope to get some feedback for this and see you guys then. (Comment on this)

2:35 am	I spend a moment in quiet contemplation over a hand-rolled cigarette. Where was I a year ago? A year ago, I was cramming my ass off for Science Bowl nationals, hoping that we would have a chance at making first for the second time in 4 years. I was not really studying as much as I needed to be for my APs (particularly French). I was having a serious bout of senioritis, over a month after my acceptance to UCLA, and I had pretty much convinced myself that I could do just about anything and still end up there. The JC were going strong (were they even started yet? I think so.) Ah, the memories of that crew. I think I'll give a bit of a shoutout to C-9 and the man formerly known as "Blunt", from K-dub. I was in a jumble about relationships, since I had recently been dumped by my rebound. I still thought that what I knew in high school wouldn't change, that things were pretty much static as they had been for so long already. I was contemplating joining a fraternity, but I never seriously considered it. I was sick and tired of classes, and just wanted that part of school to be over, but I was still anxious about losing everyone I had known for as much as 12 years. I've changed a hell of a lot since then. I almost feel like the same person, but everything around me is completely different. Oh yeah, since I never posted on the recently-passed holiday, happy belated 4/20 to all you who celebrated. (Comment on this)

9:12 pm	Yeah, I've completely lost my faith in our justice system to do its job properly and fairly. It can't seek justice for anyone except itself. Anyone gonna have any fully-armed rampages on any government buildings soon? Count me in. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

3:20 pm	Killing a tallboy of Seagrams 7 between two people is a fun way to celebrate the night before/morning of St. Patrick's Day. Sure doesn't make studying for a final to take place the day after St. Patrick's Day any fun, though. (Comment on this)

2:40 pm	So yesterday, some of the guys from my frat and myself decide to go to TJ, a trip we've planned for a while. Wow... that was a fun day. First, we make a stop at the duty-free shop at the border. How it works, is you can buy whatever cheap booze, cigarettes, etc. there, but you have to take it across the border to avoid paying the duties on it. So, our plan was to buy a shitload of booze and actually avoid crossing the border, but our driver got scared when he saw someone taking license plate numbers, and decided to take an extra hour to cross the border, cross back, and find a place to park. Took a bit longer than necessary, but I now finally have my handle for the room :-D After we finally cross the border into TJ, the first place we went is a small cafe-type place called "Taco Bell" (some of the signs said "Taco Beel", and no, it's nothing like the American version), where they offer three damn good tacos for $1 and a beer for $1. Munched there for a while, then we walked over to a mexican sports bar and bet on the Clippers v. Nuggets game (god damn Clips...). We then started to go club hopping, checking out places and trying to get the best deals we could on buckets of beer and mixed drinks. Finally, we went to a strip club where they offered $30 buckets, filled with 10 Dos Equis and a small bottle of tequila, which we just started swigging whle watching the girls there. The conventions involving TJ strippers are a lot different than such conventions in America (the no-touch rule is out the window, and a dollar in a TJ strip club will take you a lot farther than a dollar would to an American stripper). We finally stopped by "Taco Beel" for one last time before we headed back across the border and came home. Fucking fun day. And Friday night's party kicked ass too. (Comment on this)

5:12 pm	Wow... how am I managing to sleep until 1:30 PM every day, sleeping past my alarm at 8:00 AM and all the classes I need to turn homework in for. God damnit. (Comment on this)

12:47 pm	I think I'm going to truly start believing that the best things in life are spawned out of randomness and impulsiveness. :-D (Comment on this)

1:24 pm	Damnit, another night went by, with me having little memory of the events going on. I had an hour of internal reflection today, as I was recovering from my hangover, and a lot of thoughts raced through my head. Mainly, worries about me succumbing to my vices, worries about whether or not I'll pass my classes this quarter, worries about getting a job so I'm not broke, worries about actually getting a relationship rather than being the closest with any girl I meet the first night I meet her. Worries about having enough time to do all my homework and studying for classes, fulfill my pledge responsibilities, and sleep. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I went through an epiphany in that hour, a growing experience fused with sadness. Then I went to my physics class and spent that hour half-assedly taking notes while doing today's crossword puzzle with my friend in that class. Then the sadness went away, and I realized how much the little things can help, even in the face of much bigger things. That was a tough entry, but it needed to be said, however abstract it came out.
