The time I didn't write in my blog
I can't really summarize everything I did throughout the past month but I will try to make it short. :) So I don't remember the dates but from the pictures I remember I walked with Christine to Chan's apartment at Casa Grande. It was really good to finally see Christine cause I've missed her for a while. And for Chan...I haven't seen him in forever. After I hung out with them, on the same day, I went to hang out with Dylan, Richard, Jo, Deanna and Carol. We went to Costco to eat and then chilled at a park.
So for fourth of July, I hung out mostly with Deanna and Jo. We went to Ron Chung's house and did some karaoke. Afterwards we tried going to downtown disney to see fireworks but it ended before we got there. So we decided to go back to Ron Chung's neighborhood because nearby there was a fourth of July party with loud music and small fireworks.
On a different day I met up with Ysabel, Ron, and Jo. There was something wrong with Jo's car so he tried fixing it but ended up hitting his knee on his light and it cracked. Afterwards Ron and Ysabel came to make shirts for ASB camp! We bought supplies from tshirt city and Joannes. We didn't finish because Ysabel left early. Later that day Brian Chun, Jo, Carol and Deanna met up together and we went to the Lighthouse at the PIKE! It was sooooo pretty and the sky was really red for some odd reason. I am definitely going back before summer ends!
I guess sometime in July I went to Lee's sandwiches with Kevin Hiura, Kevin Fujikake, Deanna, Carol, and Jo. I think there were more people but I can't remember. Lee's is my OBSESSION. I really like eating there now. Then after Lee's we went to Dolphin Bay for a little bit then went home.
The morning before I left for camp I met up with Ron and Jo at starbucks. I bought Jo coffee because I owed him it but I don't remember why. We were all just talking and basically chillin. After that Ron dropped me off at home. I packed for camp and my mom finally took me there.
Camp was an interesting and beneficial experience. I learned how to community organize and take direct action. I met amazing passionate people that were thriving to create change in their own communities. They were mostly college kids who have already achieved so much. I will take what I learned and definitely apply it to my club project this year. And also we attended and participated in a picketing. Really awesome experience. It was held at Artesia, never knew so many issues about worker's rights were occurring in a community so close to Cypress.
I came back from camp on a Sunday (it was based in Los Angeles) and Jo was gracious enough to pick me up, though I owe him food! That night we went to eat korean bbq...but I didn't eat. David Park's friend who worked there thought I looked pitiful because I didn't want to eat and just kept watching people.
A few days later after I came back I hung out with the same group of people and went to Mochilatto. After Mochilatto we had a crazy game time right in front of Mochilatto. We played the question game, mafia, viking and boom chicka boom boom =) We also had a group photoshoot. After Mochilatto we stopped by Dolphin Bay because I was really hungry.
Lastly, I went to a bonfire that was planned by Jo I think. I got a ride from Kevin Hiura and Helen was with me. When we got there, there were only boys. Luckily there was good food and a good cook (Dylan Hunt). And also more girls came like Deanna, Carol, and Brittney & her school friends. I really loved the sky that day. On one side it was purple, another side was blue, another was red, and the clouds had gold lining (as shown in the picture).
So far July has been an amazing experience and filled with a lot of fun. However, I think I should start studying and taking my internship more seriously. I have been slacking off and even got in a lot of trouble by my mom. I'm really going to try to focus on my summer homework, SAT's, and hopefully finish my college application draft by August 1st. I'm so excited for August to come because of Korea and ASB camp! Oh yeah, I really need to blog more often. The next time I'll blog will be tomorrow after the Do Something Awards.
