It was hella traffic.. took us longer than usual to get there but we got there around 6:20 not too bad.. Everyone was there, the Maines Family of course, my family, and the canlas family.. we got there before the barnums, rocillos, and calixto family.. but they eventually got there.. so we all ate, hung out, watched wall-e and SANTA SHOWED UP! :) he came to our house and gave all the cousins and of course little sophia a gift :) hahah :D and then at 1145 we played twas the night before christmas. Then by then it was 12 and it was time to distribute the gifts :D that took like 20 mins then the last box was for me.. and i was told to open that infront of everyone.. it was a white box.. and i opened it.. there was alot of newspaper and magazine scraps.. and i had to take out like 12 handfulls of it before i got to the item! oh i had to break through styrofoam.. is that how thats spelt? lol anyway.. so the rectangular shaped thing was wrapped in layers and layers and thousands of layers of newspaper.. and finally i got to it! it was a MACBOOK!

NOT a good life for me and nini.. hahaha my brother got a good one.. then we played the "or" game.. basically "dog or cat" but more INTENSE things.. which was funny that lasted till like 530 and we just knocked out.. then we had to get up at 830 to head over to anahiem for the cousins secret santa..i helped cook a big breakfast for all of us.. pancakes, eggs, turkey bacon, rice, and all that good stuff.. lol Melanie had me! she got me the fluffiest pillow in the world! some rainbow slippers! a necklace and a shirt! thank you :) and i had kuya luke.. i gave him a flannel, 2 black v necks and a sweater.. haha then after that.. we watched WANTED and i fell asleep half way through cause i only got 3 hours of sleep! then we went back to diamond bar.. and we watched the laker game!!

here are the lyrics

the times that we had they were memorable
and yeah the chance of us together was improbable
but i took a chance for you and everything that i've done
was for you to be happy i wanted to be your only one

i remember we talked every night
loving every millisecond yeah i knew this was right
we talked about being perfect in this cold dark world
but now your truth is finally told

oh i asked if you were sure well i guess you didnt want it anymore
i kinda had a feeling that in the end
you'd choose to just be my friend
i hope that you still care and that you still think about me
you know i think of you every night in my dreams
i really didnt mean to make things end up like this
and now im sitting here still in the cold lonely mist

can you just say that you care
i'll remember all that we shared
im stuck in 100 problems
didnt have to end up this way



yeahh anyway.. lol good night to world. or whoever reads this..

love,
rj

lomita fair.

So today was a very touching/bad/frustrating/happy/fun/weird day. so i was at church today.. and my brother and i were sitting outside and i was playing guitar while having a very deep conversation about our relationship with God. My brother was pretty like.. idkk how to explain it but.. he wasn't happy he was more like confused or something.. or unhappy.. i dont know but iw as playing.. then out of no where some lady on her bike rolls in and asks me what songs i play and i got shy and didn't say anything.. and so i played "open the eyes of my heart" for her and sang.. she hummed along and what not.. then she showed me how to play "just a closer walk with thee" and i was like wow.. cause she had the voice of an angel.. and as she was leaving she told me she was recently diagnosed with cancer.. and she was happier than ever that she's close to God and how she can ttalk to him.. and when she was getting on her bike.. i looked down for 2 seconds and looked back up.. and she was no where to be seen.. i was looking for her everywhere.. and i started tearing up.. and i knew she was an angel.. i'm sorry if it sounds dumb to some people but it was like the highlight of my day. it was amazing.. i wish something like that can happen again.. it was a great experience. well after i was supposed to go to practice but my dad decided to make other plans to go check out some camp site. so yeahh.. i was pretty pissed at him.. ontop of that it was HELLA traffic on the way home.. so by the time we got to nini's it was finished. so i just showed up to listen to auntie talk about what she had to talk about.. and i only saw him for like 2 mins :[ how saddd :[ oh well hopefully tomorrow right? :] anyway.. after that we went to the fair again! ahh! hahah kicked it with nick the whole time :] and nana at some parts.. we went on zipper 3 times.. and that spinny thing twice.. and the loop thing once.. and i felt like barfing!! hahaha oh and nick bought me a funnel cake.. yumm :] haha thank nick.. it wasn't so great when i felt like throwing it all up.. i still feel dizzy even till now.. i needa lay down :[ good night.
