Sonora High Pride!

So I dont really have anything new to say... I went to Palm Desert this past weekend and stayed at the JW Marriott, It was a lot of fun but everyone either forgot their camera or had no more batteries so sadly not a lot of pictures.  Anyway I got this off of my sisters blog... 

1. Did you date someone from your high school? not really... I few little flings here and there.  My main "high school boyfriend" had already graduated and went to a different school before that.  So my senior year was mostly spent with him and his friends  (who I am still friends with...  haha  funny how that works out)

2. What kind of car did you drive? Red '93 Ford Mustang.  I loved this car... it was pretty much a piece but still had so many funny memories in it since I was usually the driver of my friends.

3. What is your most embarrassing moment in high school? I was helping out with a boys swim invatational so there were tons of cute boys from different schools.  I was walking and not paying attention and walked into the diving board that was leaned back against the wall.  I feel on my butt and had a huge red mark on my forehead.  Most of the guys laughed and a few offered to help me up.  Worst part was when I got up my jeans were covered in water from the ground.  ugh i think i just walked straight home (actually i probably called for a ride... who am i kidding)

4. Were you a party animal? not at all.  I knew people but didnt do the whole party scene.  My senior year me and robin stopped by a couple but everyone made such a big deal that we were actually at a party that we hated doing it.

5. Were you considered a flirt? Probably. I know I am flirty by nature.  So ya...

6. Were you in band, orchestra, or choir? Choir. I did Vocal Ensemble. I lasted two years until i realized I really hated the instructor and quit. 

7. Were you a nerd? yes in my own goofy way.  But in HS i thought I was sooo cool.  I wasnt.  haha  I think i have become more of a nerd through out the years

8. Were you on any varsity teams? yes... but usually played in JV that was a could start.  Oh waterpolo.  Maybe if i played for more then 2 years I would have actually played in Varsity games.

9. Did you get suspended/expelled? nope.  I got a detention once but Mr. Hawkins was dean of attendance so I was able to serve it one day at lunch.  I think i was there a total of 10 mins.

10. Can you still sing the fight song? nope, never could...

11. Who were your favorite teachers? ummm I like mr. rodriquez (my yearbook advisor)  he was such a dork who could debate about american idol for hours and also had a really good taste in music which was nice when we would have to stay all night to meet a deadline.

12. Where did you sit during lunch? upper commons middle block.  Thats if we stayed around for lunch  I usually left.

13. School Mascot? Zapata. It is a Mexican Raider. So we were usually called the Raiders, but the people who dressed up were called Zapatas and they wore flirty, flouncy little Mexican looking dresses and big sombreros. It was pretty lame. Also, they made the school repaint the mascot on the building so you couldn't "tell" it was carrying guns and wearing bullets. LAME. You could totally still tell.... shannon basically said it all.

14. Did you go to homecoming and with who? Junior year I went with Mike Boyd to his schools, it was pretty lame i didnt really know anyone and his friend got all mad that we went together ( i was friends with both of them)  Senior year I went with Blake Luitwieller it was a lot of fun.  but a week or two before it i started crushing on this other guy.  luckily blake was on the homecoming court so I had time to hang out with Nate. :)

15. If you could go back and do it again, would you? no i don't think so.  unless i can go back and do it know with everything i know.  I was WAY too insecure.

16. What do you remember most about graduation? umm it was hot and boring.

17. Where did you go senior skip day? I didnt go on the offical day since all the teachers had speciall assignments.  but i ditched plenty on my own.  Disneyland... Home... Out to lunch...

18. Have you gained weight since then? i think so... 

19. Who was your prom date? i actually never went to prom.  me and jay broke up right before my senior prom, we ended up getting back together but i still had made plans to go to palm desert with my mom that weekend, We hung out at the pool went out to dinner and shopped!  It was more fun then the prom.

20. Are you planning on going to your 10 year reunion? hmmm 2014?!  who knows where i will be then

21. Looking back, what advice would you give yourself? dont be so insecure.  I think i would have enjoyed HS a lot more if i didnt stress about what people thought.

RA Sushi

Me and Jason before dinner
Two of my roomates Ashlee and Errissa!  Trisha had class so had to meet us later

Ok so I have wanted to try this place for awhile.  I saw they were building one in Chino Hills, so I thought we would have my birthday dinner there.  It was a cool place.  We sat outside on the patio/lounge area....  but the food was only ok.  Oh well now I know!  It was still fun hanging out...

Camping pictures

Us eating dinner...  thanks to cheyne for the great dinner!  
me and ashlee attempting to give eskimo kissed with frosting on our noses...  we couldnt do it due to uncontrollable laughter.
Us in the morning... Andrew and Danielle took off before 8 so they didnt make the picture.
The frosting was my favorite part.

Camping!!

Me and Cheyne with my cupcakes...  
This isnt from camping but from the week before... I just love my guy friends.  So heres a cute one with cheyne and kurt.

I absolutely LOVE beach camping so I was soo excited when my friend Andrew booked a spot and it was on a day when I was able to go!  So Saturday morning I woke up (I was even to sleep in!!) and got ready then headed over to my parents... Joy and the girls were there visiting and then Kathy and Julianne came over and we had a little birthday party.  My mom made these chicken croissant (sp?!) sandwiches that I love and I had funfetti cake!  It was a very nice afternoon!  Then I went home packed a little bag and me and ashlee headed over to my friend Cheyne's house.  From there the 3 of us carpooled to Carlsbad.  When we got there it was freezing.  Too cold to hang out at the beach so while cheyne surfed before it got dark me and ashlee andrew and danielle walked around and set up the camp.  Cheyne got back and got going on dinner for me ashlee and him.  He was put together really good shrimp and chick and steak ka-bobs.  Also made this delicious salad.  We all helped with dinner.  By the time dinner was ready Kurt showed up.  I have so much fun with Kurt so I immediately got really hyper.  When dinner ended me and ashlee were dancing around to some music when suddenly cheyne and kurt came out with some cupcakes with candles on them for my birthday, everyone sang then we all sorta got into a frosting fight.  Then me and kurt wanted to do something so I jumped on kurts bike and he grabbed a longboard and we went for a ride.  When we got back ashlee and cheyne were MIA (they had gone for a walk) and Andrew and Danielle were ready for bed (it was WAYY too early for bed) so me and kurt played on longboards (i am getting SOO much better)  then left the camp to adventure out we visited downtown Carlsbad which was lame.  By the time we got back to camp ashlee and cheyne were back and we all went to In N OUt.  I know... we are such lame campers.  Anyway in the morning it was still too cold to do the beach thing so me and ashlee practiced our softball skills by playing catch while cheyne surfed then we basically packed up and went home... 

Softball

My friend Cheyne called me a couple days ago and said he had two openings for his co-ed softball team.  Me and Ashlee thought it would be sooo much fun, who cares if we didnt know how to play!  So we joined the team!  Our games start in 2 weeks.  They will be either Monday or Friday nights.  I am soo excited.  I think it will just be fun to play a game of softball once a week and be on a team.  Ashlee's brother played baseball for UCLA so Sunday he is going to give us lessons, we are just hoping we are not the worst on the team.  I will keep you posted!

Priceline!!

I have had the BEST luck with Priceline!  Ok... So maybe I have only tried it twice.  But still.  I wanted to go to Palm Springs the weekend after my birthday (its on a monday).  I really wanted to stay at the JW Marriott in Palm Desert but when I looked up rooms they were WAYY too expensive, even after spliting it 3 ways (between me trisha and ashlee) So I thought I would just gamble with Priceline for a nice hotel for cheap and hope for the best.  So I put in palm springs/palm desert, 4 star hotels and 100 since they said the median price was 170.  I was hoping it would go through.  Sure enough it went through AND we got a room at the JW marriott!!!  What are the odds!!  I was sooo excited!  So we will be staying 2 nights there each night only 100 bucks... after you split that 3 ways its super cheap!  Last time I used Priceline I not only had good luck getting a room, but once we got there we were upgraded.... I am not holding my breath for that BUT who knows!!  yayy!

going out!

This is actually us getting ready for a 90's party... but same thing!

Getting ready with my roommates is one of my favorite things to do.  It reminds me of getting ready with my sisters.  The other day me and Ashlee both had dates so we both took 2 hours prepping.  Both of our dates were a lot of fun, but the getting ready is also soo fun.  Sometimes its just fun prepping!
