Senior! C/O 2010

Time is going by sooo fast! I only have about 2 months left of HIGH SCHOOL left. For those of you who don't know, I am graduating early in December. I finish high school in December but I am also able to walk on stage with my school in May 2010. Right now it's been quite busy, trying to balance my things for young women and my school work. At the same time I am applying for different colleges, universities and scholarships. I want to go to a school near the Bay Area but I feel like the Utah graduation requirements are not good enough (LOL) so the school I have a better chance in getting into is Brigham Young University-Idaho, but I don't want to go to Idaho, it'll feel like Utah and I hate the feeling, haha! I'm undecided but I'm going to apply anyways, hopefully I get rejected! Haha, just kidding. But I'm just glad I get to finish early and get things out of the way. It's so stressful, especially where you are not liking where you live at all. After I finish in December, I plan to move back to the Bay and work full time until my freshman year in college starts in the Fall of 2010. Besides that I am sooo excited to go back home this Friday 10/23 and see my family. I will be down for my Olive Family Reunion 23-25 and on the 27th I get to take off my braces! yee..finally! Hehe, anyways I'll update next week about other things. Hope everyone is doing great! I love and miss you all. Take Care!

Home SWEET Home!

Woww, I cannot believe it..I'm back home! I'm at home as a visitor and not a resident which really sucks! I drove down here with my Aunty Moana from St. George and her grandson Jordan. We left yesterday around 11am and arrived in the bay at 8pm! Not bad at all, we thought we were going to be here around midnight and plus with all the traffic, I was surprised! I can't believe I got through it without sleeping for more than 5 mins. at a time and that only happened like 3 times out of the whole ride! Yay me. And it was entertaining to see Moana cussing at the cars who were driving slow, and the drivers being crazy swerving through the lanes. I'm just happy we got here safely and I'm so happy to be home. Nothing feels better than to be home, where you've been raised your whole entire life. Going through the streets you pass everyday, seeing the signs you pass by everyday, seeing the kind of people your used to seeing, seeing all the "kiggit" spots, the freeway I take everyday to Seminary, I miss everything! Ya know, on my way to Uncle Moe's house, right when I seen the Tanforan Mall, I straight stuck my head and screamed Yayyy, I'm Finally HOME! It was crazy, breathing in that good 'ole Bay Area smell, feeling the that good 'ole Bay Area weather, it was a great feeling! It was funny when I told everyone I was in town, they were all like, yayyy Monalisa's in town! Aha, when I'm in town they know the Bay is back to where it's suppose to be at..hehe! But, today I plan to hang out with my family and friends. Tomorrow I'm going to be with my dad and he's going to take me to my Orthodontist appointment to take off my braces..yay! Lol, and my flight back home is at 6:30pm. I arrive to Las Vegas, Nevada at 8pm and take a shuttle at 9:30pm and arrive to St.George at 12am. where my mom will pick me up..Lol, I don't know why she put me on that shuttle, ew! Ahaha, anyways I will go and finish gettin' ready for the day. Love being HOME! Yay :)

Ups and Downs

Wowwww, this week has been one of the hardest weeks of my life! Especially when I'm here living in St. George. Well, first off..the Samoan Tsunami that happened this past tuesday, even though I don't know people there, I have family there, and I know lots of friends and family who's loved ones are there and it's so sad to know that our fellow polynesians have been hurt. And then, also I've been going through some problems with certain people..or a certain person. It's hard thinking about it, because I believed so much in it that I never knew I would ever go through something like this. I've told my closest friends about it and they've been there for me all the way. I love them so much, thanks guys! But, I'm just shocked and upset at the same time, I felt that I would feel better if I wrote it on here. So I am! But, this past weekend it happened out of no where..seriously! It was weird. All that I did and sacrificed to make it work feels like it's been thrown back in my face, not officially yet but I have a feeling it will. So now, living in St. George it's been even harder, I just wanna go home. Home is where I belong, but I can't do anything about it until I finish high school. I just hope it gets better, and I hope time goes by fast because I'm coming home right after graduation! Haha, on the bright side, I've been excersing..last night I went running with a group of friends around our area, I enjoyed the weather because it was just like Home's. Then the day before that I did about 200 sit-ups and other workouts! Yay me! Yesterday was also my grandfather's birthday and I remembered him the whole day! Rest in peace Gpa Henry <3. You know what was funny, yesterday after school me and aggie decided to give our Bus driver a cd full of Finn, Poly, R&B music and we sanggg the whole way home..so funny because all the palangi's loved us! Haha, one more thing, one of our relatives decided to move here to St. George, they were also in the Bay Area and in our ward and they are actually on the road right now moving into they're home tomorrow, they'll be at our place by midnight. So it should be getting better! Lol, yay to brown people in St. George..but I'm still moving back home after Grad! Lol. anyways, that's all I have to write about today, and lunch bell rings in a minute so got to go Ceramics! Take Care everyone. Love ya! Duecez :)
