&lt;P&gt;...that your kids are awesome. but you already know that already when we pulled off mother's day. oh, do you want to know about &lt;EM&gt;operation purple blueprint&lt;/EM&gt;? well here's how it went down:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;we were lucky at first. our mom didn't wake us up to goto the temple, so we got a good chunk of the day to prepare everything. i was finishing up the &lt;A href="http://students.washington.edu/hormd/pix/0405/pasta.jpg" target="_new"&gt;creamy garlic shells&lt;/A&gt; as my mom was walking in the door. we told her to look on the fridge. she noticed that it was very clean on the outside, and the only thing on it was &lt;A href="http://students.washington.edu/hormd/pix/0405/note.jpg" target="_new"&gt;this note&lt;/A&gt;. yeah i know the picture's blurry, but she didn't have her reading glasses either. she had to go get her glasses, and she read it out loud:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;CENTER&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Mom, although the calender says&lt;BR&gt;That today's the day to tell you&lt;BR&gt;How much you are loved.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;I want you to know that&lt;BR&gt;We love you everyday&lt;BR&gt;Much more than&lt;BR&gt;Our words can express&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Wishing you a very&lt;BR&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Happy Mother's Day&lt;/STRONG&gt;!&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/CENTER&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Oh and what's this? there some new magnets on the fridge holding up the note? here's a close up of the awesomest kids ever (&lt;A href="http://students.washington.edu/hormd/pix/0405/sibs1.jpg" target="_new"&gt;1&lt;/A&gt;, &lt;A href="http://students.washington.edu/hormd/pix/0405/sibs2.jpg" target="_new"&gt;2&lt;/A&gt;). and wait, there's more. mom opened up the fridge to find this &lt;A href="http://students.washington.edu/hormd/pix/0405/cake.jpg" target="_new"&gt;awesome cake&lt;/A&gt; that we made. yeah, we advanced from making our own presents that she'll end up throwing away, to making our own presents she'll end up eating. i mean who could say no to angel cake with chocolate covered bananas detailing the bottom, and crowned with chocolate covered strawberries. actually it was &lt;A href="http://students.washington.edu/hormd/pix/0405/loracake.jpg" target="_new"&gt;lora's idea&lt;/A&gt; to make the cake. and like all of her ideas, i'm the one that actually puts it all together -__-&lt;/P&gt;</description><comments>http://hormd.xanga.com/87808787/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Thursday, May 06, 2004</title><link>http://hormd.xanga.com/86653261/item/</link><guid>http://hormd.xanga.com/86653261/item/</guid><pubDate>Thu, 06 May 2004 01:36:46 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;h2&gt;planning...&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;delora&lt;/STRONG&gt;: david, mom's bday is coming up, and so is mother's day.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;david&lt;/STRONG&gt;: "take pictures, sing a song, make dinner, or all of the above..." i say we make dinner, and give her a picture in a nice frame as a present. "david...treasurer, will handle the money..." wait, does this mean i pay for everything?&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;i was gonna write about how this week sux. everything just compounded on eachother. i mean i lost my headphones, lost the soccer games, lost my interviewee for 310, haven't scheduled an interview for 380, losing sleep, nobody wants to go on booze cruize with me, xanga not working with tabulas anymore, and i think i'm totally gonna give up on readings.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;but something happen. it was all today too. everything was looking up. found me another person to interview, was able to schedule the interview for 380. the coolest thing was on the way to bubble tea, one of the book stores on the ave had a going-out-of-business sale. everything was 70% off, and they actually had a computer section. i got me a "writing secure code" book for only 8 bux, instead of the normal $40.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;i picked up a new tutoring job. while i was teaching her whatever, we were eating some fortune cookies. her fortune was "&lt;EM&gt;you will soon receive help from an unexpected source&lt;/EM&gt;" and mine was "&lt;EM&gt;you will soon have the opportunity to improve your finances&lt;/EM&gt;." irconic huh?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;so yeah, week aint even half way over, and it's been pretty crazy for me. cant say it's looking up yet til i take the 340 exam tomorrow. i barely got to study for it, but i think i'm gonna go catch up on some sleep now.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Currently Feeling: &lt;STRONG&gt;blank&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description><comments>http://hormd.xanga.com/86419078/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Friday, April 30, 2004</title><link>http://hormd.xanga.com/84963104/item/</link><guid>http://hormd.xanga.com/84963104/item/</guid><pubDate>Fri, 30 Apr 2004 04:25:49 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;H2&gt;wanna know why?&lt;/H2&gt;
&lt;P&gt;some things shouldn't be said. but that's why they invented the blog. so how did i know?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;remember that one day u invited me over to study with you? i thought that was your way of saying, "lets procrastinate together." but i actually got a lot of reading done, while you were having too much fun chatting with him online. i didn't know i could be so ignorable. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;remember that one day you invited me over to chillax? and when i got there, you said that ur head hurt and you just needed some alone time? and then he came over and you started smiling again. that's why i gave you more alone time. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Currently Feeling: &lt;B&gt;contemplative&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description><comments>http://hormd.xanga.com/84963104/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Thursday, April 29, 2004</title><link>http://hormd.xanga.com/84657006/item/</link><guid>http://hormd.xanga.com/84657006/item/</guid><pubDate>Thu, 29 Apr 2004 03:33:57 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;H2&gt;currently feeling:&lt;/H2&gt;
&lt;P&gt;i apologize to all of my fans because i haven't been updating this blog lately. you might think teresa's hogging all of david to herself, but that's not true (besides, she's a giver ^_~). it's just that i've been swamped with school work, that i haven't had any time to enjoy life. take this week for example.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;monday: working on 310 model comparison paper&lt;BR&gt;tuesday: drawing entity relationship diagrams for 340&lt;BR&gt;wednesday: working on feasibility report for 380&lt;BR&gt;thursday: pasta night at jamie's&lt;BR&gt;friday: get drunk at jenny's (jae lo) bday&lt;BR&gt;saturday: import nights after party at showbox&lt;BR&gt;sunday: prolly have something due monday&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;so if you want to hang out with me, then i ask that you schedule it 2 weeks ahead of time...unless you're sexy. which reminds me, my class is gonna go on a booze cruise friday june 4th. we need more ppl to make tickets cheap. so just think for 25 bux, you can hang out with my cohort and it's all you can drink. no hard A though T_T but if u wanna go, lemme know. oh yeah, and u have to be 21+&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;haha, this blog was suppose to state what i was currently feeling (mixed emotions), but i dont even have any time for that.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;currently feeling: &lt;STRONG&gt;blah&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description><comments>http://hormd.xanga.com/84657006/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Saturday, April 24, 2004</title><link>http://hormd.xanga.com/83151532/item/</link><guid>http://hormd.xanga.com/83151532/item/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 24 Apr 2004 04:14:24 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;H2&gt;true story&lt;/H2&gt;
&lt;P&gt;once upon a winter quarter, david finished paying for his lunch at by george. in the middle of the day, the tables were jammed packed with students, and this sophmore didn't know where to sit. he figured the next best thing to sitting next to a cute girl was sitting next to two cute girls. he found some playing cards, and noticed they were playing thirteen. it was the same card game that david used for financial support back in high school.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;with something in common, david was able to break the ice and talk to the freshmen girls. good times were made, but father time shows no compassion for those having fun. the three parted for class, but luckily one of the girls was taking the same class as david. he was estatic that he was able to make some new friends, however, fate works in funny ways. that classmate/girl dropped one of the courses they had together, and kept on skipping the other class, so they never really got to know eachother.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;the snow melted, the rain poured, the sun shined, and the leaves fell. a whole year has passed and david was doing his best to fight spring allergies. he was chilling with teresa when her roommate said she's seen him before.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;"yeah, did you ever eat at by george? and play cards with 2 random girls?" asked nirorth. david looked at teresa and nirorth with disbelief. this casual chilling was actually a reunion of his long lost friends he never made. fate does work in funny ways.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;and on thursday and friday and saturday, we chilled on sunday&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Currently Feeling: &lt;STRONG&gt;sleepy&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description><comments>http://hormd.xanga.com/83151532/item/#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, April 19, 2004</title><link>http://hormd.xanga.com/81875775/item/</link><guid>http://hormd.xanga.com/81875775/item/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 19 Apr 2004 23:18:01 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;H2&gt;reasons&lt;/H2&gt;
