HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMA! my favorite So last night, I had this really scary dream, and I didn't know how to interpret it. But I think dreams are powerful, and they must mean something. Whether or not it's true, and no matter how crazy it sounds, I do believe that dreams can be symbolic of anything that has happened or will happen within the previous or next 24 hours of the time that the dream occurs. I've always been able to make sense of my dreams, but this time I didn't know what to think. Anyway, I thought to myself, "NO WAY! THIS DREAM IS WAY TOO WEIRD. I'M NOT EVEN IN THAT SITUATION! BUT WHAT DOES IT MEAN?" The thought was literally on my mind all day, and alas, a REVELATION! I called Mama to wish her a happy birthday, and it was definitely good to be able to talk with her and others. I was able to talk to Ate Kristine, who is currently 5 months pregnant with Kuya Dan, and I am oh-so-very excited! EXTREMELY! Anyway, I believe my dream was symbolic of Ate Kristine somehow. Also, the Michigan kids are getting older, and they are adorable. Kate welcomed me with a, "Hi Tita Diane! How are you? I miss you." So, somehow within a year, I've turned from Ate to Tita. Weird!. Kayla is now old enough to speak in sentences. It's incredible how fast children grow. Just talking to them was heart-warming. =) Speaking of children, my cousin called me from work today and had her kids say HELLO to me. CUTE! Cousin, I ♥ you. The theme of my day, I guess, is CHILDREN. Children are beautiful. They are our future. WHAT I'VE DISCOVERED: Apparently, I talk to my roommate while i'm semi-conscious, and I don't make any sense. This has happened several times already. It usually occurs when she comes in really late slash early in the morning, and I wake up to her entering the room. I just start talking nonsense, and I don't even remember what I say. Then I knock out again. SPIRIT RALLY TOMORROW, and I am pretty excited. YAY!!! i said so @ 6:10 PM
It's pretty amazing how simple acts of kindness can affect an individual, in a good way, of course. Yesterday, I woke up to a text which read, "Good morning! I hope you have an aweseome tuesday! :]]]]" It's the little things like that which make me smile, and I must be lucky to experience it all the time. I'm very fortunate to know such beautiful people-- people who encourage, people who constantly make an effort to reach out, people who take the time to make someone's day, people with whom I conversate on any given day, and even those who indirectly and unknowingly make me smile and keep going. YES, I am blessed. I want to be able to give back to you and you and you if you'll let me. I want to thank YOU (a collective YOU) for being present in my life. i said so @ 11:47 AM
You are my hero. You're my inspiration. You are beautiful. I thought I'd be more independent by now, but here I am, more dependent than ever. Don't give up on me just yet. I know you won't, and I want to make you proud. I'm sorry I'm so sensitivie. I'm sorry I'm so uncool. I'm sorry I'm inadequate. I'm sorry I'm this way. I'm sorry if I disappoint you. I'm sorry I push you away. I'm sorry I take advantage of what I have. I am so sorry, and I know it's not enough. It hurts. You must be tired. If I could help even just a little, you know I so would because I love you. I love the way you sacrifice and the way that you love. P.S. Hello there, friend. I'm glad we're pretty similar. Thank you always. i said so @ 6:22 AM
But there's always something to smile about. Thank you for being my lab partner! I'm thinking of you. i said so @ 7:57 PM
So, I realize that my knees are weak. The weekend has been pretty good except for my anticipated headache last night. Luckily, Kim and Holly forced me to eat a double-double and a shake, and the headache was not so anticipated anymore (if that makes any sense). Melanie says I must be amazing to anticipate my headaches, but I say there must be something wrong with me if I constantly feel like a headache is about to take over. I am seriously prone to headaches, and sometimes these headaches really suck. OK enough about headaches. Thank you for the beautiful people! Thank you for a friend. i said so @ 9:31 AM

August 29, 2002 Dear Krystle, It has almost been about a week of school, and I have met some new people. I'm still pretty scared about this whole high school thing, but pretty soon, I'll be getting used to it. Some older people here make me feel very welcome, and it is comforting to know that I'll have someone to talk to when I need help. I think Immaculate Heart will give me the education I need to succeed in the future. I just need to work hard and put effort into the work I need to do. I also need to be dedicated and involve myself. I find some classes hard, but then again, it is a challenge. High school will be all about challenges, and I will just have to go through these challenges to prepare for what I intend to do in my future. I do hope to meet more people and friends. I hope to achieve more and to be well-educated. Love, Krystle During the first week of high school, freshman year (Religion I), Rizzo made us write letters to ourselves and seal them in envelopes so that we would be able to open them at the end of the year and discover how much we've grown, achieved, changed, etc. Imagine reading it 5 years later. Lots of change! I forgot I even wrote this to myself. Anyway, I do believe IH provided its students with valuable education and a rigorous curriculum (maybe some departments more than others). What makes IH so special is the enforcement of the awareness of an individual's capabilities. Students were always challenged to think critically and ethically, as well as approach situations in a manner that would prepare them for the world outside IH. The phrase, women of great heart and right conscience, is ingrained in our minds. I do believe that the young ladies coming out of IH receive all the education, experience, and guidance necessary to become such women-- not only really intelligent women, but also women of great moral values. Each class is able to come together to create an insanely strong bond of togetherness. Gedeon once said, "You will never be able to work with or find another group of young ladies like the ones at IH," and then she teared. Immaculate Heart is a special place. =) Now, I'm here, and I'm feeling almost the same way I did about five years ago. I know I'll learn to truly LOVE it at UCI. I will. i said so @ 8:48 PM
