holy crap i have never been this tired!!!! okay.. this morning.. i had to wake up at SEVEN! coz miss ng was coming to pick me up at 9:00 to eat breakfast with me. i was soo tired and in pain this morning. and my groin hurt soo much i think i pulled it even more than it already is!! it was soo hard to walk... and i have never felt that drained out after sleep!! anyways.. i got changed and waited for miss ng.. she was right on time.. we went to empress walk and ate at toby's. It's actually not bad although Dunn's was a helluva lot better and cheaper... too bad no one ate there so it closed and become TOBY's.. anyways.. we talked alot about random things.. check up on each other pretty much... it was fun.. we talked about our "mat carriers" and who carried my mat. (referring to the story of the cripple whose friends carried him down the roof to see Jesus...) it was a really good article... anyways.. she made me realize how important it was to take the first initiative which is what i don't do... i realized how valuable a group of friend can be especially if they are close to you and you know that you can rely on them for anything..sadly to say its hard to find people like that.. for my whole life i have had few friends that I really really trust and rely on for anything...
she gave me the either to start a small group with people from school so that we can meet up weekly or biweekly just to check up and grow spiritually or mentally.. pretty much be the "mat carriers" for each other because each of us have our own disability that we need a helping hand with... it is also another way to express love to everyone since if we can't love our peers while they are visible then how are we able to love God who is invisible... so anyone interested in a small group in the fall email me! coz i really want this to work since it would be such a great opportunity to grow together....
anyways.. after breakfast, we went to loblaws to buy a chair.. hahaha.. then miss ng LOST HER TICKET for parking! oh wells.. at least the guy was nice and let us throw without the ticket.. it was funny though... dropped me off at home and I got ready for skating.. once i got to the rink, i immediately did not want to skate... i was way too exhausted... thank goodness it was pilates first or I would've DIED!!! pilates was harder than usual although it was supposed to be easy.. all i could think of was sleep and doing nothing.. i wanted a normal summer! anyways.. skating was funny... im supposed to do 4 solos a day and man.. I scammed it soo much.. i did three the first session.. went all out for the first two solos then on the third I cheated it soo badly.. did singles, completely missed jumps, skipped spins and walked around while my music was playing.. that was a lot of fun...
fitness was hard but fun.. hard in a sense that I did'nt have the energy to do anything.. i think under normal circumstances I would've been fine... anyways... while we were stretching, a caterpillar crawled on paulette.. that was funny! we put it back on the tree so i can turn into a butterfly!
skating again.. once again we scammed.. hehehe.. i told mrs. burka i did 4 solos and she had her booklet of rules so me and paulette just sat there and asked as many questions as possible about the booklet even if we repeated it.. mrs burka repeated the layback section TWICE! haha.. good waste of time.. we didn't do anything for 45 minutes! I had my lesson on the next session and spins... I am soooo exhausted from today...
My exhaustion was revealed in my piano lesson later.. i couldn't concentrate and I kept playing the wrong notes, the wrong rythmn.. my teacher asked me such a simple question that I would've answered in my sleep.. but i was tooo tired so i couldn't interpret the question correctly and completely blanked out... how embarassing..
to top off the already bad day.. i called my dad and got a lecture on how his goal for me in skating has changed and doesn't expect much from me anymore.. he's not willing to spend as much seeing that I can't make it anywhere anyways... he pretty much said I was a failure at skating and he doesn't care about it anymore.. I felt like I disappointed him soo much and I just wasted all my time.. I suddenly lost all motivation to skate further.. he said its useless to spend all that time and effort on a lost cause.. to rephrase.. and man.. i felt like i just took a bullet in the heart.. im skating for a lost cause.. there's no meaning to skating... what's the use to skate then if I wasted all that time! man... why the heck do i do it... why the heck do i skate.. life would've been soo much better without skating.. then I would be able to lead a normal life without half the stress that I go through for skating... man.. why don't i just QUIT!!

YAY!!!anyways... went to stretch when we got kicked off and talked with patty for a while... one of our occasional meaningful conversations where we aren't making fun of each other.. I love it when patty and I talk coz then he gets so interested in what i have to say!... but when others are around, we're constantly bickering.. man.. i love that kid... herm.. after skating.. went home and here's a surprising thing..my mom cooked a whole giant plate of crab... there must've been like 7 crabs in that plate all chopped up.. well, being a filipino, I ADORE CRAB!!! seriously, if anyone sees me eat crab, they would be disgusted for life! I just keeping grabbing more while using my hands to eat the rice and dig into the crab to get all the meat out while slobbering and dipping it in the sauce!!! WHOO BOY! truly filipino to eat with our hands.. I LOVE IT! hahahaha well, mom didn't want to eat so I ate
ALL the crab on the plate...anyways.. after that, I wanted to sleep so i washed the dishes then fell on the couch and slept until lemuel called to see what time he wanted to pick us up for bbq at his place! NICE! hahahaha.. we went to his house and once again i stuffed my face with food from the bbq... SOOO GOOD! we watched three movies, ZOOLANDER, FREAKY FRIDAY, and STEAL.. hahahaha.. ZOOLander is officially my favorite movie.. its soo stupid that its good... ONE LOOK!!! the derek zoolander centre for kids who can't read good!

wow... what a hectic three days of doing nothing... hahaha.. okay... got a call last wednesday asking me to be part of the disney feature movie ICE PRINCESS... ignored that coz i had exams... then called on friday, and the people at the casting agency didn't know what was going on.. so ignored it.. then they called me on sunday to show up on monday at 7:00 am!!!
MONDAY
got there at 6:30 and was really pumped up to be part of a movie!!! ME IN A MOVIE!! how exciting!!! I couldn't wait for the day to start... boy was I wrong.. at 7:00 the people there took a bunch of us to a trailer for wardrobe where they chose from my array of dresses two dresses for the short and the long.. they chose my two most expensive dresses!!!! my tango dress and my les mis dress... i was happy at the time coz I LOVED those dresses... they took me to another trailer to get changed then whipped me out to hair and makeup... i first went back to the extra tent to get my hair done... the lady there said that it had to be in a bun but considering my hair is short... that wasn't really possible.. so she did this UGLY hairstyle of three ponytails... i looked bald, ugly, and i had a horse's mane at the back of my head.. that wasn't too appealing and I asked why I couldn't have it down.. they said that If i had it down, i would look too much like one of the main girls ZOEY (this gothic, rebellious girl with purple hair sticking out and a really weird skating dress.. but she's a good actress and skater). So basically, they said that all of us had to be ugly so that we won't stand out... that wasn't tooo fun... so in the process of doing my hair, the lady used half a bottle of gel and gafquat(this hair GLUE!!!) to get my hair to stay in that position...GRR!! I LOOKED LIKE A GREASY BEDHEAD!!! so after my hair was done.. i was walking around with this hideous hairdo, and the people send me to makeup.. going to makeup, there was another hairstylist, (CHINESE GIRL! hehehe) and she constantly looked at me.. or my hair at least... so she then called me over and was like... "I REALLY DON"T LIKE YOUR HAIR" so fortunately.. the asian girl saved my day! she sat me down and undid all the knots and ponytails, sprayed water all over my hair, dumped another gallop of half a bottle of gel and started styling my hair into two low pigtails... my hair was schlacked with doses of gel unimaginable already and she put more in.. i was really liking my hair at that time so i didn't mind until one of the producers or something walked in and said.. she can't have her hair like that! it'll look too much like zoey!!! boy was I MAD! since i really liked what she was doing, so she once again.. took everything out, sprayed it with water and dumped the rest of the bottle of gel on my hair... and did some weird side part, greasy, schlacked hairdo that look sooo retro!!!! i didn't like it but it was better that the first one so.. whatever... then she put two clips in my hair and i went to make up... after that.. they gave us breakfast of grilled cheese at 8:00 in the morning! imagine eating grilled cheese for breakfast! like soggy grilled cheese... EWWWW!!! we went back to the extra holding tent and i assumed that after getting hair and makeup done that they would call us right into the set.. boy was I WRONG!!! we waited until like 12:00!!!!! grr... and we kept going back and forth to the rink coz the washrooms were there.. so when we got called.. we got our skates and went to the set... four girls actually went into the arena and they were asked to pretend to stretch while the camera passed them.. me and tay however were asked to walk behind a door! WALK BEHIND A WINDOW!!!!!!!! the main girl, michelle trachtenburg, was suppose to be watching zoey, a skater, doing her solo and look all nervous or something.. behind her was a door with a tiny window and when the camera passes the door, the director wanted it to seem like there was stuff goin on behind the door.. so what do they do? they ask us to walk by the door!!!! over and over and over and over again.. what the heck is that!!! but it was our first one so we didn't mind too much...so we obediently walked by the door... we saw it on camera and all you see is the pink thing (my dress was pink) go by the window, you can't even tell its a person, let alone recognize me!!! so that was all we did for like an hour... at 1:00 we went back to the tent and just chitchatted with the girls until lunch time..which was at 3:00!!! lunch was good though, after lunch, we were given a lounge near the rink so we went there and talked and did nothing... until like 9:00 pm.. where they asked all the girls to go inside the rink and pretend to stretch until 10:00... we were then wrapped at ten.... so we went home... SUCH A HORRIBLE DAY!! they gave us grilled cheese for breakfast, made us sit in the sweltering heat forever and made us wait!!! dressed us up in our skating dresses, the one i LOVE, for 15 hours!!!! it itchy tights and since i wore the dress for 15 hours, the sequins and beads of my dress started falling off!!!i got soo mad!!! they fed us at 8, at 10 with rubber sausages in english muffins.. it was gross, then fed us decently at 3:00 and never again.. so we were all starving and scrounging for food, and they made us wait and do nothing for the whole day!!!!!! grr.. i was really mad by the end of the day that i didn't want to go back the next day... the only thing making me go back was the money... hahaha
tuesday and wednesday
the same thing as monday except, not as much gel coz they knew what to do with my hair... same dress... more sequins falling off, more walking behind doors, stretching on the ice but they weren't as bad.. for one thing, i brought food!!! A TON OF FOOD!!!! i was eating every hour!!! they didn't use us much again.. but at least we had the lounge to stay in, we had food, and we brought blankets and pillows to lie down on... and cards!!! man.. cards saved us too from boredom... so we did the same thing over for two days... but it wasn't as bad so that was alright
the girls
we really bonded and i feel like we've known each other for ages, well some i did, there was me, taylor, angelica, emily from the granite so we knew each other, then kalina and amanda from last summer granite so all of us knew each other, then there were amanda's friends sarah and jen.. sarah is sooo cool.. she's soo funny.. hahahahaha, then there was lauren and stacie, we didn't know them, then nobahar for one day, neeta and carly for the next two days and this other girl.. samantha...
samantha
i feel soo bad for her, she's asian, and she's like 18 years old... i don't know if i should believe it but she was telling us her life story and it was soo sad... she got kicked out of the house when she was 16 and was living at the shelter, she met a guy there and dated for 2 weeks then he proposed to her so now he's her fiancee... they are gonna get married in september but they have no money and they live at the shelter. she got fired from doing the movie thing coz apparently she's pregnant... i felt sooo bad for her...:(
the pay
okay.. after all those horrible things of the past 3 days... here is the good part.. the money!!!
$26.75 per hour for the first 8 hours
double that for the next 6 hours
and triple that for any hours after that so i was making $70 an hour at the end of the day
PLUS
$35 per day for bringing my skates
$105 for bringing my own dresses
$45 for meal penaltys coz our lunches were late
$45 for meal penaltys coz they didn't feed us dinner
$75 i think for turn around time because there wasn't 11 hours between they time they let us go and the time they asked us to return
so i was making a whole lot of money.. i think im missing some extra penaltys but we calculated it and it was about $800 a day!!!!!!! NICE EH???? hahahaha and i worked for 3 days so its around $2400 for three days of doing absolutely nothing!!!!
they literally could've hired normal extras to do our part for cheaper since they are paying us for special skills that they didn't even use.. we didn't even on on the ice!!!
we met some really good actra people too which are better paid extras... they were supposedly our coaches and they were really nice.. there was james this really weird, perverted, swearing weirdo who was alot of fun coz he made us laugh with his useless swearing and stupid anecdotes, there was mark, my coach who was just as silly and useless without as much swearing, there was robbie another "coach" who looked like joey from friends and was really silent, there was aliksha, a former model, like runway model in milan and newyork and stuff who got fired and was doing extra stuff, there was sonia who was super nice!!! hahahahaha
~taylor and angelica had a stalker who was this creepy guy who kept hitting on them.. he was touching them, putting his arms around them and asking questions that really freaked them out.. so we were talking about it and sonia heard so she went straight to the assistant director and action was taken.. the guy was FIRED!!! hahahahahaha... good for him... he was really really creepy
~michelle trachtenburg is sooo spoiled and snobby.. she won't talk to us and in her scene, she had to have a bottle of water but she refused to drink that water, she wanted her fiji water in it..honestly i don't see what the fuss was about for fiji water.. i drink fiji water and its nothing spectacular! hahaha... then her bodyguard was following her around everywhere and she was talking about parties and coming home at 5:30 am and stuff.. i guess that's how stars live.. haha
anyways.. that was my experience being in a movie.. hahahahaha.. let's see if you can see my head in the movie...

forgot to add what happened after chapel.. herm.. hotdogs were late... soo hungry.. then awards.. got 4! good samaritan (go figure), citizenship (very random), yearbook editor(expected), and gold pi(yay!).. hahahaha.. then mike came to watch me skate.. how weird coz i actually fell a lot today.. cut myself doing a beilman! eww.. and now IM STUDYING! yay!
11:23 PM
havn't blogged in a while.... soo much has happened and i forgot to blog about it.. lets start with friday...
Formal Night
it wasn't as fun as I expected it to be.. Annie Jo told us on the law trip that it was gonna be amazing and the way she described it made me picture a vivid formal night that was filled with fun games and activities to make up for not dancing.. well, i guess i pictured it to be soo much more that it really was... i think that's my problem.. i have learned to expect too much that when the actual thing occurs, it doesn't meet my expectations.. anyways... got ready at like 1 which ended up being to early.. Lemuel came and picked me up but my mom kept forgetting things so we ended up leaving at 6 to go to brii's house... we were definitely late but the events didn't even start till 8 so i could've just stayed home and finished two weeks notice before i left and stil made it on time! grrr... well, the food was not to shabby.. better than last year's... and the drinks were awesome! they served beachcombers!!! games were incredibly boring since the sound system was scrwed up or something and miss ng left early leaving me, drii, and brii to take the pictures! SHE PUT US ON THE JOB ON OUR FORMAL NIGHT!! talk about the ultimate sacrifice.. anyways... the night ended up lagging till 11 before we went home... it was fun with brii though! got to know him more and spend lotsa time with him... he's soo sweet... highligh?? aaron sneaking in without a ticket! hahaha... that loser... drii and gracie slept over that night and we chatted about the most randomest things... silly me falling on a yearbook and bruising my elbow! WHIPEE! hahahaha.. YEARBOOK FOR LIFE! hahahaha... then drii fell asleep triggering a chain reaction of sleep..
Yearbook Day
well, actually saturday wasn't a complete yearbook day.. drii came with me to skating and she met patty and paully.. hahahaha.. patty was hilarious that day... and i actually skated pretty well, drii enjoyed it more that the first time she went... went to yearbook after skating and stayed there from 2 to 6.. WHOA! hahahaha.. i was soo incredibly tired that day that i wasn't able to do any decent work... warren, sarah, dirk, jer, me and drii were there with nger... the past, present and future editors! hahaha
~ we gave birth to dirk and jer who then gave birth to drii and aivory! drii and aivoz are our grandchildren! = warren

Awards
slept in today and I waltzed in the school at 10 am.. surprisingly no one was there! half the grade skipped today!!! well, starting with chapel, for some reason i knew that i couldn't last the chapel without bawling... first off, the grade 7's are amazing!!!! amanda lam? (i think that's her name) had such an amazing voice.. she should go for canadian idol!!! and those two grade 7's reciting.. what started off as boring reciting turned out to be pretty impressive! that was like 2 full pages of memorizing to do! that was insance.. well, once the grade 12's went up for worship i couldn't last.. when dirk went up i thought, today's the last time im gonna see dirk drum and worship on stage, then curtis went up and i thought, im never gonna hear his amazing voice sing again unless he goes for canadian idol, then sarah park went up and i thought, im gonna miss seeing her in yearbook and singing her heart our for us, then lydia went up with those bear slippers and man... i was starting to tear.. im gonna miss her cuteness and i thought back to the missions trip and how much i was gonna miss greeting her in the halls and wishing her a good day... while singing, i thought that this was the last time i was gonna worship with them and the words really meant soo much too me... i treasured it.. i thought of each grad and how much they impacted me... im gonna miss them sooo soo much... so here's my mini shout-out section to those who made me cry today :( i don't care if they read it or not
