week one of my return to bodybuilding has finally passed. let me tell you that it was a really crappy week. you know you can lift more but your mind doesnt let you. the only thing that made me go through was thinking that ill get sore even lifting 5 lbs dumbbells. the reason behind that is whenever you feel sore, it means you have shocked a muscle enough for re-growth and strength. doubt if you want, i know how my body reacts.

on wednesday i asked my dad to get me plane tickets to arizona. without hesitation, he straight out says
dad: "for jackie's graduation?\
me: yea
dad: when are you leaving and coming back?
me: thursday night and coming back saturday morning
dad: how much?
me: 87 plus a shipping fee
dad: i dont want you driving there cuz gas would be more.

i cant believe it was so easy. usually when i ask him to buy stuff, i would need a real convincing motive behind it. such as:

me: i need to buy new headlights for my car.
dad: why?
me: the lenses are fogged up.
dad: does it still work?
me: yes, but its dim.
dad: as long as it works, you dont need new ones.
me: (2nd reason) it doesnt look good on my car.
dad: did brian replace his?
me: no, his arent fogged.
dad: if he doesnt need it, you dont.
me: his arent fogged up yet.
dad: how much is it?
me: 175 bucks
dad: thats expensive.
me: im buying generic ones. real ones are over $300
dad: the quality might not be as good.
me: they are all the same.
dad: do you know how to install them?
me: yea.
dad: (long silence) ok go get my credit card.

the conversation was similar to this and it took about 10 minutes to scam him in buying me some headlights. next, gear install.

there are so many things happening on June 21 2003. First is phillip's reception. second is the NPC Western Collegiates, and third is the AVN convention. i did plan on going to the NPC collegiates to scope out the competition because that is the one ill be in, but the wedding is far too important. i hopefully i can find someone to spy on the competition for me and take some photos paid by me.

film time:

the skulls - did you know that at least 3 of the US presidents have been in a secret society? were talking about shady stuff. you see, the ivy league colleges have this secret society thing where a few top students are admitted into. this is nothing compared to frats because there is money involved and loads of it. you get millions easily automatically entered in your bank account, you get to have exotic cars, ease of admission to grad school, and the woman of your choice. so in this movie, it talks about "the skulls", a secret society where a student becomes a skull and has to choose to either deal with the shady things that happens within the club or to keep his friendship with his roommates. this is a great movie because i wish i was a skull.


dumb and dumberER - my main concern is the characters played in part 1, jim carrey and jeff daniels will not be in part 2. eric olsen is going to play lloyd and derek richardson is playing harry. eric olsen is not even a funny guy. hes more of an abercrombie model/pretty boy. even though the jokes will be as funny, itll seem different. the voices are different, facial expressions etc. i hope the humor makes up for it.


smallville - there are only 2 more episodes left and the anticipation is growing. will clark get to hit it? the last episode made us all think that he would get the mack on with the super hot lana. but he didnt. well at least he hasnt kissed her yet without the red kryptonite helping. the preview show in the next episode where clark gets his mack on but the producers just cant let clark be lana's boyfriend. this will conflict with the comics and ruin the whole superman deal. in the meanwhile lex marrys helen and lionel continues to overpower his son by a hair. we also see that martha kent's womb is getting bigger. that will be interesting. thank goodness there will be a 3rd season due to the high ratings this new show gets.

warning: dont go to this site if you want to deal with the anticipation.

my week off working out was like a very good vacation. i got to eat whatever i want, drink soda, stop making the tuna oatmeal, without a set schedule. what i did was pig out on ice cream because my aunt bought me a huge 4 gallon tub. my body's natural creatine production kicked in again from my contiunous loading cycle. that was the reason why i felt sluggish the past month. so during the week's rest, i felt very energetic.

this week, i went back to the gym and started to do different things. though my strength is still there, endurance lacks. again, ill have to reload creatine. but these are the things you have to sacrifice from resting. itll only make you stronger and able to break plateaus.

my business class recognizes me as liking avril. my teacher even refers to her in his lectures and holds up my folder with her magazine cover. for some reason, i think he is a pedophile and looks at porno because during every class, he mentions about girls, cheerleader outfits, porn metatags, shania twain, avril, nakedpoetry.com etc and what not. but without these references, it would make the class boring because we laugh at these comments.

in my nutrition class, i took a midterm where i didnt even open the book once. i got a B+ on it. although the teacher doesnt like me, i am the one that always participate in class discussions, well it depends if i dont ditch. because ive been to the class like 4 times since the beginning of the quarter. the other day i turned in a 3-day food intake chart and it said i was intaking 5000 calories a day and about 400 grams of protein. my meat group was way out of proportion to the other groups. the analysis says that i was taking in 900% of my daily value of vitamins and minerals etc. she returned the work and said this wasnt acceptable and i have to redo it. so i look at my friends paper. there i see he lists a cup of coffee for breakfast, a cup of coffee for lunch, and a sandwich for dinner. thats it. he gets his paper back without having to change it. thats malnutrition. so there, im not gonna redo my work. she needed proof that i am an active person and stuff. if she wants proof, im gonna give it to her. so i think i have to do a pose down in front of her. i should also send her my foot long craps to analyze.
