49ers All the Way!!

So, you know that I’m a San Franciscan. I’ve been raised here ever since I was four. Obviously, it’s all about the Giants and Forty Niners for my family and I.

Today, the San Francisco Forty Niners went against the New Orleans Saints. I was on a road trip the first half of the game, but I was definitely watching the second half. My whole family, at least all the males… and me, were gathered around the television with popcorn, nachos, and soft drinks.

When it was 32-29 Saints, I’ll be honest, I actually thought we were going to lose. Everyone in the room was glued to the TV and no one said a word. And then, Vernon Davis pulled through! Caught the ball and managed to hang on to it even with the Saints surrounding him. TOUCHDOWN! The game was now 32-36 Forty Niners. I had the quickest reaction of course. Literally, I jumped off the sofa and yelled, “Saints’ got nothing on us!” My whole family was staring at me like OMG, but then my Uncle Jason followed my actions and screamed, “Hell yeah! Touchdown! We’ve got a true Niners fan in the family,” and pointed at me.

It was so fun!! Even though we’re in LA, the people here are actually rooting for the Niners. There were cars honking, people screaming, and everyone was celebrating.

I now expect us to win the Super Bowl, but there are definitely no doubts about that. Cheers to the Forty Niners!

What I Didn’t Know About a Friend

I am currently at my friend’s (Ethan) New Year’s Eve party! Haha. The guy knows how to throw a great party!

He invited two guys. I know both of them. Their names are Chase and Connor.  I met them at the Breaking Dawn premiere.

I’ve known them for over a month now and I did not know that Connor can dance! Holy shit, this guy is beast on the dance floor! He knows all the modern dances and ballroom!

I took tango as a little kid so I danced with him. Haha. We rocked it. The whole room was watching and guess what? We got a massive applause. (:

By the way, happy New Year’s east coast! … and the other side of the world!

Despite Everything Today

I had my worst day ever today. Went to the doctors and found out I have this vomiting syndrome. My best friend, Leon, has pneumonia and is probably in the E.R. right now. I also lost my other best friend, Vince, today because I chose my boyfriend over him. My mom was lecturing menthe whole day. I threw up no less than seven times. No food has been digested since Tuesday night. No sleep at all whatsoever.

Today, was definitely not my day.

But I want to give a special thanks to Angelo, my boyfriend, for caring. “Yes it does and it is. My job is to help you feel better. (;” Thanks babe… for making me smile for the first time in the past 32 hours. I love you!

That One Phone Call

Imagine this.

You’re sitting in a hotel room, on your bed, and it’s 1:25 in the morning. Even though you have a flight at 6AM, you still want to stay up because you’re boyfriend said he was going to call. Every minute, boredom creeps a bit closer to you; every second, sleepiness tries to force you to fall for its trap. You’re sitting there, staring at your laptop, fighting the urge to sleep.

Three feet away, on top of the television, lies your cellphone. It is now 1:29. Suddenly, your phone vibrates and you know the only person that would call at this hour. Smiling, you get out of bed and walk over to it. Just to make sure, you check the caller ID and as you expected, his name lights up.

Picking up the first time, you hear nothing after a few seconds so you absentmindedly hang up.  He calls again and this time, you linger there for a few more second saying, “Hello,” once after two seconds. He finally responds and you stand there, smiling. Here’s a summary of your conversation:

Him: Merry Christmas!!

You: Merry Christmas to you too.

Him: So, what did you do today?

You: Me?

Him: Yeah. Who else?

You: Nothing. I packed.

Him: (sarcastically) Really. That’s cool. What are you doing now?

You: (sounding tired) About to sleep.

Him: I see, well, I’ll leave you to it then.

You: Wait…

Him: Yeah, what?

You: What’d you do today?

Him: Party.

You: Oh really? Again?

Him: Yeah, you know, I’m like that. Party everyday.

You: Oh, REALLY.

Him: Mhmm. So, you’re coming back tomorrow?

You: Yeah.

Him: Awesome!!

A brief moment of silence is taken place.

Him: Well, I’ll leave you to sleep then.

You: Okay, g’night.

Him: Goodnight! I love you.

You: (smiling) Love you too.

Him: ‘Night.

You: ‘Night.

Call ended.

Placing your phone back on top of the television, you realize that you can’t stop smiling. You walk over to the light switch. Before you turn the lights off, you notice the clock… 1:32. Getting into bed, you open your laptop just to write this post. 😉

You close your laptop and the conversation you just had came racing back into your head. Every word, every feeling will be remembered.
