Chip-

I really enjoyed going back through the year with you. It will be fun for

you to save that and look at in again in years to come. Good luck on your

New Year's resolution. I'm never good at sticking with mine. I ought try

something like " I will eat lots of chocolate " cuz then I'd do just fine!

Ha.

Hey guys,

I been meaning to share the highlights of my life in this whole year, 2005 (from

January all the way to December), boo-yah! I broke it down in each months in

each paragraph, so you can read it clearly and more easily. So, it won't be all

messy, complicated, mix up, and so on, alright?

Anyway, enjoy and lemme know how you like it, alright? Half of your guys are in

it, since you're part of the highlights of my life in this year!

HIGHLIGHTS IN 2005!

JANUARY:

I graduated from La Puente Dog Grooming Training School, on January 15 with a

brusher/bather certificate, pet sitter and animal attendant certificate. The

very 1st time, I got to see Heidi after 1 month of being with her! Our 1st kiss

and hug was at that party at that time, cool man!

I went out with Anne (my ex gf, now my friend) to celebrate her b'day. Also

another reason, cuz a year ago, when she came over here to celebrate her b'day,

she left her little backpack/purse thingy at my house, lol! So, at that month

this year, I went out with her and her mom, and her mom's boyfriend (I see a

pattern here with Heidi's family, lol! Cuz, Heidi's mom got a boyfriend too,

just like Anne, lol)! So, I gave back her backpack/purse thingy, phew! That was

the last time I ever went out with Anne. Cuz, I moved on and got a new

girlfriend at that time, alright? And beside, I felt so uncomfortable going out

with Anne, cuz she's my ex and I got a new gf, right? So, that's why I had to

stop seeing Anne ya know.

FEBRUARY:

I started going to PCC (Pasadena City College), taking an art class from Monday

and Wednesday. And on Tuesday and Thursday, I started going to a job placement

center for deaf and h.h. people in Goodwill, located in Los Angeles! Heidi came

to the Valentine Dance at La Verne with , for the very 1st time! She 1st

met , his dad, Annette, and Anne! She didn't really like Annette and Anne

too much, but she had fun chatting with , me, and , cool huh? My teeth

started hurting so bad, that I ended up having root decay, sigh! And no, I

didn't have any oral surgery at that time, sigh!

APRIL:

A lot of people b'day at this month! 1st it was Heidi (4/15), then it was 's

mom, Pat (4/16), my nephew, then my doggy Sasha! (both later on in the end of

this month) I remembered on Heidi's b'day...I got to sleep over at her house for

the 1st time of my life! Cuz, I never slept at a gal's house before, but I did.

Anyway, I had fun at that time. It was so funny that, Heidi woke me up early the

next day, lol!

MAY:

I dropped out my art class, cuz it was getting too hard for me. I kept on

getting bad grades, and it became so frustrating for me, sigh! So, I gave up ya

know.

SPECIAL EDITION OF THE SUMMER: SUMMER OF THE CHARGERS! (JUNE THROUGH SEPTEMBER):

JUNE:

I had a b'day party at BJ/Dave and Buster at Ontario Mills, with , Kendra,

Heidi, Gabby, , Renmar, my mom, and her friend! Heidi and I also celebrated

our 6th month being together that time, woo-hoo! I also got my 1st, animal-paid

job for the very 1st time! I started working at Doggy Times, from 8am-12pm, from

Mon thru Fri! At 1st, it was kind of slow and boring. So, I spent most of my

time reading, playing with my gameboy sp, playing with some dogs. I also got my

1st paycheck, and I think it was around $130 or $230 at that time, right? I also

had a small b'day party at my work too, lol! I got to meet Tara's dog, Max! And

later on, a bunch of other dogs (like Rufus, Teddy, and so on!) Now, I know more

than 20-40 dogs names and their personalities, lol! I quitted going to LA

Goodwill, since I got a job ya know.

JULY:

This month was the most famous, popular month, same thing with August! But, this

was the best summer I had in my life! Going to the CHARGE Conference for the

very 1st time, and visiting Florida for the 1st time too! I got to meet a lot of

CHARGERs, their parents, other people, and made a lot of new CHARGE friends! My

new CHARGE friends are: Jillean, J., and Philip! Well, I did hear about

Philip from , so we emailed each other before we met! He's cool, and we had

fun talking about video games, and he's a good artist too! J. was cool,

even though he was a bit quiet. Jillean was 1 of my favorite CHARGE friends (I

got other favorite CHARGE friends, but not gonna list them here)! We got so much

in common, and his family took me to the Metro Zoo in Florida, and we had pizza

for lunch! Then, 5 days later after being at the conference, my mom and I had to

fly back to California, sigh! But, at least I kept in touch with my current

friends and my new friends, cool huh?

AUGUST:

And you thought I'm done visiting my CHARGE friends, after the Conference,

right? Well, you're wrong! This time, I got to meet P. for the 1st time

in my life, woo-hoo! He spent a couple of days and weekends at house, cool

huh? They came to the Hawaiian Dance with me, , Heidi, , and Kendra! My

friends got to meet , and they enjoyed meeting him. 's parents took

us out for golfing, went to eat out, watched 'Sky High'. Then, it was time for

him to leave to go back to his hometown, Minnisota! So, , his dad, ,

and I all went to the airport, and said 'good-bye' to , sigh! Then, around

few weeks later, guess who came down to visit me and my family from WA DC? Yep,

the man! He was staying over at his sister's house in Pasadena. So, we hung

out in downtown Pasadena, my mom took us to the street fair in downtown

Monrovia, lol! Then, he came over to my house, and got to meet my brother. Me

and talked a lot, he helped me to get rid

of some of my bad habits, made a bunch of new rules for me, and so on! We had

fun ya know, cool huh? I started to get sick, sigh!

SEPTEMBER:

Heidi and I celebrated our 9th month anniversary, by going to the Duarte Float

Parade with , my mom, her friend, and Marilyn! She also spent the night at

my house for the 1st time, lol! And yeah, I woke up 1st, and I waited for her to

wake up, cool huh? I was beginning to have some serious problems at work at that

time, remember that? I started getting probations, warnings, and even reports

too! I started to get a conflict, negative feelings about my job for the 1st

time in 3-4 months! I started to get sick ya know, sigh! I joined the Fitness

Center, and I had been working out with a personal trainer for a month! Then, I

was on my own, been drinking that weight gain milkshake powder! Yum-Yum! Now,

I'm currently weighing around 80 lbs, boo-yah!

OCTOBER:

My mom flew to Florida and to the Carribbean Islands with her friends. I started

learning independent living by myself. Unfortunly, I started to get nervouse,

uncomfortable, and I started to get sick at that time! I also got to visit

Heidi, and we both celebrated our 10 month together! I slept over at Heidi's

house for the 2nd time, lol! Tara was getting concerned about me getting sick

too much, cuz I kept on skipping work due to my poor health! (I forgot which

months I got bronchitis, I had it like twice, and 1 of them was worst than the

other one. The recent one was last month, and it was only URI (Upper Respiortory

Infection), and I did stayed home from work too, sigh!

NOVEMBER:

Not much of a highlights here...but I did remember that around the 1st week of

November, it was the 1st year that I got to meet Heidi for the 2nd time, and it

was her 1st time to meet and Jasmine last year, cool man! I got sick due to

URI (see above for more info). I started doing some serious thinking about my

future, if I wanted to continue working at Doggy Time, cuz of too much warnings,

probations, getting hurt, and even getitng sick too much too, sigh! Heidi got a

1 month punishment from Thanksgiving to Xmas Eve, lol! So, we only wrote each

other letters instead. We started chatting each other last week, phew!

DECEMBER:

Heidi was off punishment on December 24, we celebrated xmas together on Sunday

this recently, cool man! I got sick with a bad cold, sigh! This time, I made a

new year resolution what to do starting in January. 's b'day was on the

22nd, so my mom, his mom, and both of us went to Disnelyand yesterday, to

celebrate his b'day! Cool, huh? I got sick at Disnyland, from eating a grilled,

fat, sandwhich, sigh! Heidi and I celebrated our anniversary on xmas time, phew!

And we're still together, we finally beaten both of Annette's and Anne's

records, boo-yah! (I was with Annette for around 9 month, and was with Anne for

a year) I got hurt on my knee at work, and my eyes started itching at work,

sigh! So, I started thinking about my health, and reconsidering changning my

job, due to my soon to be new year resolution, for a better health for me.

Now, what will the new year of 2006 will hold for us? Who knows? Only time will

tell! Until next time, we will talk about the future predictions of 2006! Have a

wonderful new year ya'll!

Oh Ellen!

If I could only eat chocolate on Christmas!!!

I laughed out loud at your " fatty bomba " --it is a funny expression.

Happy New Year, to you, also my dear.

And Chip--WOW!what a year!!! Good for you to review and see all you have done.

December 28, 2005

Ellen-

Yes, that's my family too. Luckily, we have " thin " genes so we are blessed

to be able to eat til we are bursting and still not get too fat. I know:

" don't hate me cuz I'm thin " . For me, it was just pure luck to be born to

my mother.
