| hey everyone,
i know that i haven't posted in a long time, but don't get too exctied because i don't really have anything substantial to put in this post. um, nothing is really going on here at LMU. Well, let me rephrase that -- nothing out of the ordinary is going on here at LMU. I'm still going to class, and for those that really know me, i'm actually great academically. so that part of life is great. On the extra-curriculars which i enjoy greatly. I'm a little stressed with the greater responsiblity, but hey that's what i'm here for. i do enjoy my leadership roles. My debate coach asked me today, if i had my passport, and i think that a good sign. Oh, here is an interesting development. I now have work study. I just got my financial aid package today. I'm so excited. Tomorrow i'm going call up all the people that want to give me work study jobs and tell them that i am available. Its going to be fantastic. I know what you are thinking, Mike working? But i am determined and i could always use the money. I haven't really talked much with anyone that reads this thing, and i do miss you. Just because i'm a little busy doesn't mean that i won't make the time for you in my life. I've decided that you make time for the people that you care about, and if you don't feel like i'm doing that in your case, then call me out on it. I trust in you guys to make sure i hold up my end of the bargain. At any rate, i'm really not that busy. I think i like the idea of being busy more than the actual reality. I have to much time, and i jsut usually spend that time sleeping. I would much rather spend that time catching up with tried and true friends. So, i suppose that's the real moral of the story. Call me! because i miss you, and the only reason that don't call is that i don't want to bother you. Take note, i cannot be bothered by you. it is simply impossible. A second reason is that you know that i can't remember anything to save my life and that probably includes your contact information.
Your Friend, Mike | | |
| - The Sound of Settling -
so, i just got back for a three day weekend at home. It was a great
time. I do like going home once in a while. Whilst at home i watched
mulan 2 it was cute. I went shopping, and when i say shopping i really
mean shopping. Rian would have been so proud of me. Instead of
spending hours without buying anything, I bought a lot of things
without spending to must time. It was alot of fun. I do miss you guys
though. See going home means getting to see my family. Seeing my dad,
sister, and mo was awesome. I had missed them so much, but i felt that
there was part of my family that was missing. The part that includes
rian, david, mario, megan, lauren, matt, amanda, wedolly, marcus, tati
and stefan. I miss you guys so much. I know i've said that before, but
youguys really are part of my heart. So concrete a part that i consider
each one of you guys family. My heart has an infinate capacity to love,
and i love you with all that capacity. There are also some new people
that have come into my life to make it better. I also missed elaine,
lorraine, steph, ash, kim, and raveen. LMU is really based in community
that more people i get to know the more and more i realize how i'm
among some great people. I'm not sure if i'm really open with people or
not, but i have realized that the people i'm open with tend to be
stellar individuals. Perhaps i'm just that good of a judge of
character. go me! hehe.there are even ppl that surprise me like john,
andy, kyle, and andrew. You know what? I think i've incoherently
rambled for long enough...i hope you can get out of this post the
feeling that i put into it. ttyl
love,
mike

Happy Valentine's Day, ya'll! Today wasn't particularly eventful, but i
still felt like putting up this greeting for this wonderful holiday.
I've never really thought that much about valentine's day, but its
creates an opportunity to express one's love. Now, traditionally this
expression of love is meant for one's significant other; however, I
shall take this holiday into my own hands and use it to express the
love I have for everyone in my life.
you guys know who you are, from the bottom of my heart.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
....ok, so now, the news in my life. Well, the usual routine has pretty
much set in by this time midsemester. There are a bajillion things
going on, and i'm struggling to keep up. Yet, i'm having fun along the
way. This last weekend was pretty eventful. I went to third street with
kim and ashley. Remember third street you guys? Yea, its 20 min by bus.
I decided that i really really need to get my licence, but since this
is about the hundreth time i've made that decision my future
driving still appears dim. Then, i went to steph's DZ crush party. All
the girls that went from the sorority were supposed to invite 2 guys,
and as a result the guys outnumbered the girls about 2 to 1 (yes, i am
aware at the captain obviousness of the statement, but i stick by it
dammit). Seeing
that the usual ratio is pretty much the other way around on campus, the
DZ's were having a blast. I had a great time. I hadn't gone dancing in
a while, twas great. I came back to Doheny at around 2 or 2:30 and i
ended up painting in ashley's room. It was fun, i painted a flower, and
i was very proud of myself. Oh, i forgot, in order to go to third
street i had to wake up at 11:30 on a saturday. That, was a little
painful, but definately worth it. Then, on sunday i woke up around
4-ish. I love sleeping in. Sunday was less eventful. Now, we are at
monday. hmm, updating wasn't so hard...i think i'll do it more often.
see ya around,
mike

| Hi all,
This is Elaine writing for Mike's xanga entry. So let's update you guys with what's been happening with Mike. He's still busy as ever with aslmu and classes, but he still manages to spend time with Lorraine and me because he's AWESOME And I sound like a total ditz. Oh! and he's been taking these tennis classes with me too! Did you guys know that Mike plays tennis? He hasn't played for about four years, but he started taking it up again. And guess what? He's really good! (He'll deny it, but he is) He's enjoying LMU...he's really popular here! It's hard to walk around campus with him without at least ten people saying hi to him. Quite the friendly one, that Mike.
Alright, that's it for now. Tell Mike to update his xanga more often!
Oh! To spice up this entry, I thought I'd post some random pictures.

This was made out of an uncut piece of paper. Isn't that cool?

Cute puppy!

Jackie Chan's son! They look identical.

Eeek! Justin! 
Bye!

| so now that i'm an adult. nothing much has changed. life keeps kicking my ass and it doesn't seem to be letting up anytime soon. i can't catch a break, and there is nothing that i can do about it. no matter how much i try to put the peices of my life back together i can't seem to complete the puzzle. some parts are missing and to fill the void i've made some pretty dumb choices which have only compounded my heartache. you know what...i suspect that no one will even read this since everyone is so busy, and no one wants to hear me complain for the bajillionth time. Like Oprah's producers told her when she aired at the same time as the super bowl..."no one is watching." i suppose in this case..no one is reading. nevermind then
...please call me...i miss your voice. | | |
