It's funny what the past can do to you. It can hold onto you and cling on for dear life...or it can fly away into the wind with a slight brush of the shoulder. What happens to it is up to you and where you determine it shall go.

Sometimes it's easy to forget what's important to you when you're so immersed with school work and it can be hard to pull yourself out of it. These past four years of university have gone by so quickly and I wish I did so many things differently...but at the same time I cherish all the memories that I have made with those who matter and that I don't regret. I've always wanted to be able to go through university and come out saying that I had a great time with many memories to look back upon. Even though I've been trying very hard to juggle between what matters to me and school, I have found it to be quite chaotic. You obviously can't put both things first...sometimes one will have to give way for the other. Thankfully, I have at least two more years of pharmacy and redemption is calling my name because I feel like I won't take things for granted this time. I have TWO years to make things right and I WILLLL. :)

maybe I'll stick around as well and post more often this year rather than in 2012. ;)

SO,
I am back from another adventurous trip! This time to montreal for a bachlorette party. =] It was definitely a needed break from school and I'm so glad that I went. Poutine, foie gras, BRIEE, ice wine, nights out, boutiques, beautiful scenery, gorgeous hotel location in the heart of down town montreal...life was classy and pretty sweet. I was a little worried about going since I knew exams would be coming up, but my studying schedule worked out...kinda...so it wasn't too big of a deal.

This term has been quite overwhelming with the amount of work that I have to do. I'm not used to having so many exams or even courses for that matter. I have 9 exams and only 2 of those exams were for labs...so I was taking 7 courses! I actually never really counted the number of exams I had until today. I never really thought about it...I just kept studying and wondering why it felt like I had no time to study. haha I can't wait until the last week of April! It'll be like a part 2 reading week for me until another school term starts in May.
For now, I will be hibernating at home until then!

Coming back to toronto from hong kong requires alot of adjusting! I was extremely jet lagged the first week that I came back and driving was pretty hard. I haven't driven for 3 months AND the roads were very icy. But I can definitely say I'm glad to be home. There's too much here that I've missed. =]

One week of school has gone by and it has been such an amazing experience so far. The people are very welcoming, the profs are down to earth, and I don't even have to cook! Sobeys, Pharmasave, and Scotiabank has been very kind as to provide our class with lunch for three days already. On friday, Shoppers Drugmart held an event at the Delta Hotel in kitchener for all of our students in pharmacy and provided hors d'oeuvres, drinks, ipods, gift cards, packages, etc. It was great! That was a pretty fun night. Besides all the fun stuff, of course there is also work! Assignments and labs have been thrown at my face from several directions already! It's a little overwhelming but how can you enjoy having fun without knowing what the other end of the spectrum is like? =]

Haven't posted in a while but I've decided to come by again and drop a few lines. There's too much that has happened in this past month, it's been great. I just went by San Francisco at the end of November for about a week and did quite a lot of shopping there. Gotta see my relatives and such, it was good...I definitely miss my little cousins. They asked me when I was going to visit them again and naturally I replied..."next year in the summer, like always" ...in which I ended up correcting myself cuz I won't be off school next summer! grrr. I won't be off till the next four years meaning, no little cousins to pick on anytime soon. =P

So where in the world am I right now? I'm in Hong Kong!! I've been here for a little over more than a week and I've seen/done so much!! I went to a really nice beach in Shek O and got to soak in a little more sun than I was expecting to in december. It was the first time I've ever worn boots on a beach! haha. (it was an unexpected road trip) I passed by a little stand selling food by the side of the road and recognized a familiar face. It happened to be a tvb star more well known for his role in The Kindered Spirit way back...although I've seen him in some more recent ones as well. I definitely had to take a picture with him. =) haha

For the next couple of days I've mostly been going to more rural parts of hong kong. By rural I mean not as busy like mongkok on the weekends. There was still quite alot to do there. I went to a couple of outlet malls and walked around.
Today ended up being another unexpected road trip to sai gong...I think that's how you spell it. haha. We were suppose to drive up to sha tin but didn't quite make it all the way. haha. Had some nice thai food and went by the yacht club. The scenery was amazing! =)

Today Hong Kong had it's opening ceremony for the 2009 East Asian Games. That was pretty exciting. I didn't make it outside to see the fireworks...but could kind of see it from the place where I was staying at. The fireworks were pretty loud though, so I could hear it as well...it ended up being great sound effects for the tv showing the event. haha.
Yesterday I went to the Hong Kong Jockey Club in Happy Valley for dinner with relatives and we just so happened to see some of the athletes representing Mongolia eating at the table right next to us! I thought that was pretty awesome, but none of my relatives cared to showed interest. haha. =P At the time I didn't think they were atheltes...I thought they were people who were just very patriotic and wore clothes with "Mongolia" written on them. haha how silly...I ended up seeing those same people on tv at the opening ceremony!

More updates on my trip to come!! =)

2009-11-08T19:23:00.000-08:00

Time definitely flies! It's already been five weeks since my foot surgery and thing's are looking great. Recovery's going very well and I'm no longer in pain. I managed to fit my feet into regular shoes yesterday, and I couldn't be happier...no crutches either! My feet have been a little stubborn though and I haven't been able to fully gain control of them yet, time can only tell. I must be patient. =)

2009-11-04T18:39:00.000-08:00

Hellllooooo World!

Wow, my last post that I made was pretty much three years ago! I think it's about time to start blogging again. Just now, I took a little bit of time to read my previous posts and every bit of it just made me giggle inside. I don't even remember living through half of the events that I wrote about...and when I was reading through it, I could only visualize the experiences from a 3rd person's view. haha

I'm still quite curious as to what else I did in high school that I don't quite remember, things outside of school....but I've noticed a pattern...Why did I always talk about school in pretty much every single post?!! I rarely talked about vacations or random outings. haha I think a part of me forgets alot of things I did and wants to revisit those memories....maybe it comes with age. =(

More posts to come for those of you who actually find this!
btw, how do I make a title for my posts?!! This seems so new to me! haha

blah blah blah

AHHH....schoool is killing me....yes here we go again...another post about school. =P I fell asleep in geo again. -_- and I missed the answer to some question and now I dont understand it. I'm gonna feel so stupid when I ask my teacher what the answer is again tomorrow. -_-. On a brighter note, I don't have to get any needles before I go to Hong Kong! =D yay...I hate needles. I remember one year, I got a letter from school saying that I was missing like 6 shots and that I would be suspended if I didn't take them. I didn't really care at that time...so I ignored it. AND THEN...I got another letter a week before my suspension date reminding me to get all 6 shots before the end of the weeek. o_o....I didn't think that they'd actually suspend me. =P But w/e I found out that I got them all done before its just that they weren't on my york region records cuz I was from a school outside of york region. gaynesss. -_-. ya...

So anyways...I'm suppose to be doing my powerpoint presentation on Warren Buffet...but I"m not. =P I thought he died....and I told my teacher that....I also thought he owned Dairy Queen. HAHA...I dont know where I got all that from. Turns out...he's not dead...and he doesn't own dairy queen. -_-. I reallly need to research more. But anyhow, I'm excited for this powerpoint presentation. =D I like presenting. It makes me all giddy inside. =) yarse yarse. I also get to present an article on Monday for accounting. =D yaya so excited. But I really should start looking for articles now. -_- I saved up stacks and stacks of newspaper over the span of 2 weeks and didn't throw them out and my parents are getting annoyed by the big pile of newspapers. SOO...I must find articles tonight. Yup yup....

p.s. I failed three kids in my swimming classes and I feeel kinda bad. =/ ...but they kinda suck. =P

edit - I hate my hair. >=[ + I hate hair dressers. goodbye.

2006-11-08T19:04:00.000-08:00

Tired

I really shouldnt be on the computer right now. And I really shouldn't be blogging either...but I guess I will. =P I really need a break from school. And I need sleep...and I just want to fall alseep and go to some lala land where I can do whatever I want like sleep and watch t.v. for countless hours while my brain learns everything I need to in my courses so that I can get perfect on everything! =D....Then when I feel like it's the time to, I will wake up and go back to reality and school. =P wow....that would be nice if I could do that. =)

I think I am growing an interest for volleyball now. o_O....yes...I know....I said that it was the worst sport ever created...moving a ball around while injuring your arms...but ionno...it doesnt seem so bad right now. =/ Maybe I will continue to like it...maybe I wont. =P I just know that I want to find a new sport!! lol I need to do something that will wake me up ...anything. o_o...My teacher caught me sleeping in class...again! I kinda fell over ...but I thought I hid it pretty well by pretending that I was putting my face closer to the my notes and frantically writing. haha....it was so odd...Okay, right now, it is 10:05 pm...and ya know what? Maybe I'll just take a shower now and then go to sleep....yes I will!!! oh goodness....its so early. o_o....I need to keep a habit of sleeping earlier. I'll start today. =) But then I wont be done all my tutor work and studying for tests on friday. o_o. hmmmmmm I think I will go to my lala land now. =)

2006-10-27T17:07:00.000-07:00

P.A. Day

yayayayayayaya. =) Today york region schools had a pa day. At first, I said that I promised myself that I would do my homework and study and all cuz I have three tests on Monday and Tuesday. o_O....but sadly, I am disappointed at myself cuz I didn't do much...However..I did start on my accounting presentation so I guess that's a start. =D.

Yeah okay...so what else did I do today? hmmm...I woke up bright and early at 8:30...on a pa day!? o_o... Yeah and then I had lessons...and then I read a stack of newspapers to find some good articles for accounting. =P Took me long enough...since I am such an indecisive person. =S. Yeah anyhow...after looking for an hour and a half, I got 3 articles!!THREE!! =) yay! Then I ran out of the house and bused/subwayed my butt downtown to meet a bunch of friends. Yup. And then I bumped into Abby and Ray! =D hehe they're so cute. Yes anyhow...I went to starbucks and got my frapuccino mocha light and I was so happy...well for the amount of time it lasted. But technically, my first taste of it IS suppose to be my happiest moment out of my entire time of drinking it according to my economics textbook about some theory that some dude said. -_-. I can't actually believe that I remember this...thats my problem. I remember such useless things when instead I should be memorizing the chain rule or quotient rule for calc. yes..anyhow after I walked around with my friends, I subwayed my butt back to finch...and then I met my mommy next door at her work place. It started to rain and I didn't have an umbrella so I had to use my hood and I was carrying so much stuff too. So my hood kept flying back (it was also windy) and I had to put one hand on my head to keep my hood in place and carry everything else in my other hand. =/ Oh well, after I met my mom, we went to galleria where we met my dad. There, we ate dinner and I got my ja jang myun and I was sooo happy =)...even though it wasn't as good as the old buk choon place...it is better than everywhere else. =/ So...I am still searching for my perfect ja jang myun. If anyone knows of a place...PLZ tell me...=P (but not the chinese kinds...the korean ones. =) )Honestly....I miss the old chef at buk choon. =*( .

doo doo doo...today was sooo cold. And it's gonna get colder and colder....But I think I'd rather be cold then hot. I remember my brother use to ask me if I'd rather die by being frozen to death or being burnt alive. HAHAHA. how gay. It's like he wanted to plan my death strategically but only after he found out my preference of death. =P But yes...I think I'd rather be frozen to death...cuz then I"ll be too numb to feel anything and my heart rate will just slow down. Now on the other hand if I were to be burnt alive, I'd feel myself burn up. o_o.. Okay I dont know where this is going. AHHH geez...see...If I was studying instead of writing these random posts of nonsense of how to die...maybe...just maybe ...I'd do better at school. =P Okay, I guess I'll start cooking now for tomorrows pot luck. =) yum yum. Then I'll do some homework. =P

2006-10-16T15:05:00.000-07:00

I'm so Old...

I just realized how old I'm getting. o_o. I'm no longer a kid anymore. =P boooo. Next year I"ll be going to university.. ahh...this is just happening way too fast. I also realized how unprepared I am for my last year. I should have been applying for scholarships in the summer!! not now...when homeworks piling up like ther's no tomorrow. ANd...I should have done alot better last year. -_-. Especially math...which is usually the subject that pulls everything up. But nope..not last year. And now scholarships are all asking for my grade 11 mark. o_o. So advice for ya'll fellow youngings....don't screw up in grade 11. It also helps you with early acceptance from unis. So yeah...I made a mistake and I can't go back...but if others do better than me, than i'll be happier. =)

yarse...I've been thinking of what I want to go in recently and now..I really don't know anymore. At first I was thinking of either going into pharmacy after taking a few years of life sciences, but the scary thing is that if the pharmacy program doesn't accept me after a few years of life science...I'll be so screwed. And... with only a life science degree, I dont think I can do much. =/ My second option is accounting....but the thing is, everyone I asked doesn't really like it cuz it's so stressful and everything. Some people even switched out of accounting and purused another career. SOOO...basically I dont know what to do anymore. Actually, I was thinking of going to UC San Francisco cuz then I could go straight into the Pharm D program ...and it's only about 6 years! =D But then I would have to take my sats. And I didn't even take them yet...nor did I even pick up the chunky sat book and start reading. o_o. Even if I do...I don't think I will be able to take the test in time. The dates for the test are Nov 4, Dec 22, Jan 27, Mar 10, May 5, Jun 22. I clearly can't do November 4 cuz I didnt' even start reading. I can't do dec. 22 cuz I'll be on an airplane to hk. I guess I could do Jan. 27, but that's around my exam week. The next date that I could write it is March 10, but by that time, university applications would be over. o_o. So um..yeah, I'm screwed. -_-

I was also looking at other professions that I could take like after a few years of life sciences like chiropractician or a radiologist. I think I might have to result in pursuing those instad. I'm not sure actually.... =/ hmmmm I've had major mood swings lately like yesterday...I was looking at the worship power point...and I just started crying all of a sudden...I couldn't stop....and my eyesight has gone sooo bad. It's really weird. I can barely see the computer screen now. haha. I have to stick my face close to the monitor so that I can see what I'm typing...even now.! lol Wow..i dont know what I'm going to do in a big lecture hall in uni. The thing is, I dont want to renew my glasses cuz I dont want my vision to get worse. I'd rather be semi-blind now. o_o and not blind for the rest of my life. =D Or maybe i"ll just get contacts...I kinda really need it for lifeguarding. I can't see anything...not even the people's faces. =S. haha. Let's just hope that no one drowns. =)

Good Times and Bad Times

Recap on Saturday:
Woke up bright and early at 9 something. =P Then I went to Finch station to meet a bunch of people. From there, me and 4 other "children" and our 18 year old father (hahaha) subwayed all the way downtown to the uni fair. =D ya...I didnt plan it. =P They just needed an extra child for a groupy. Anyhow, we get to a pre sky walk thing and a lot of companies are giving away free things and stuff. =D We were going crazy. haha...okay not really...but there was this one stand I stayed at for soooo long. o_o the Canon stand. =D They had this cool instant photo printer and so we/me haha ...decided to stay there for a while and take pics and print alot. harhar it was awesome. =) Anyhow, after getting alot of free stuff, we walked across the sky walk and went to the convention centre. I attended the waterloo co-op presnetation adn I thought it was pretty good. That just might be my future school. =D. yes yes

After the uni fair, we subwayed our butts to the north york centre, got off and karyn, carol and I went sushiing at ichiban. harhar =D It was awesome cuz I never get to spend time with these two cuz of various reasons. =/ And the food was awesome. yum yum. So after sushiing we then subwayed back to finch and then went our seperate ways. dooo doo doo what a fun day. =)

Then my parents came, picked me up, and dragged me to dinner where i watched them eat cuz i was so full from sushiing. After that, I went to felly and that was my night.

SOOO....that was the good side of me. Now here comes thes ugly part . Please do not read on if you are in a particularly happy mood, cuz I would just like to get this out of me, and it may change your happy mood. =/ Yeah, anyways I feel like ranting. Because I am very disturbed....I dotn know aobut what...maybe its everything thats going on. ionnno. I just feel like stopping everything...everything that's goign on. Or maybe im just oversensitive and paranoid about certain things. -_-. grrr I dont even think I am making sense. It's just that certain things tick me off and I feel like lashing out. But I can't, cuz I'm contained by many boundaries. I'm like a human bomb...ready to blow up but I dotn know when. The last time I ticked was errr last year about this time of the year. Yes...how odd..I still remember. I just know that this is so unhealthy for me cuz I never get to lash out. GRRR.... so pissed off. I hate you. Yes I do. Sometimes I hate you so much that I want to slap you. But no, I dont. Stupid me just stays quiet. That's how I express my anger...by staying quiet. -_- I know I shouldn't be hating you, but I do. Sometimes, I try to make myself think that I dont hate you...so I deny it and put a smile on my face. Sometimes I dont want to talk to you, but I still approach you and say something nice. I think I handle my anger in a very bad way. Oh geez....excuse me while I explode for a second...that is if I permit myself to explode. -_-. oh my...and everythings just so hypocritical man...my brother was right.. how horrible...I've always tried to deny it and think that there were always feasable explanations. But no, a person won't understnad until it actually happens...which is quite sad, cuz it took me stupid 17 years to find out. Ahhh...Im ranting. And this will never end. Maybe I'll feel better soon ...lets say tomorrow? =D no...I think not... I dotn know, I hope its soon though. I need to concentrate more on school...its grade 12, my important year. grrr I think Im just gonna stop here now, that kinda made me feel better. I think I know what I need to do now. =/ Maybe I"ll just stop now, there's no need for me anyways. =P okay...trying to think happy thoughts. ******** I think I'm good, I'm just gonna study for my accounting and chem test, maybe do my lab thats due tomrorow, and my calculus and geometry and discrete assingments. -_- ohhh goodness, Im hoping for a miracle here.

2006-09-27T15:26:00.000-07:00

Back in the Days

Today I refused to go to work. =D...and instead I went to the library, did some homework, went home, watched some t.v. and then ended up going through my picture album and laughing at all the pictures where my brother and I did stupid things when we were small. lol While I was doing that, I happened to flip through a whole bunch of pictures of church friends when they were younger. =D haha alot of them were funny cuz the kids in the pics reallly dont look like what they do now. And some of them...they just looked funny. lol

Joanna, Joseph, Brian, Christina, Jerry HAHAHA, Jon, me and Peggy.

hehe chubby alfred =)

Andrea, Renny, Brian, and Victoria. =D

Joseph, Joanna, Renny, Andrea, Brian, Victoria, Jonathan. =D

hehe I thought this was cute. =D Kindergarten diploma. HAHA

=) I like this picture. I think we were trying to build a moat. hahah who knows...

haha this one makes me laugh cuz I tried so hard to make a bubble.

Anyhow, I got my braces off yesterday and teeth feel sooo smooth. =) I could lick them all day. haha The thing is I have to wear retainers now and it doesn't feel so great. =/ meh... lol After the orthodontist removed my braces, they used this metal thingy to scrape the gluey paste off of my teeth cuz it hardened. And while they were doing that, I felt like they were ripping my teeth out. o_o oh my goodness...it was a scary experience...like the day taht I went to my dermatologist and they had to an incision on my forehead. HAHAHA....maybe i'll tell that story another time. =P Anyhow, I'm so very happy now cuz I have so much more time do my homework and just relax. =) I'm glad. OHHHHH
Guess who I saw at the Dufferin Clark Community Centre today? =O =D. HAHA CALVIN!!!! eee...he's so cute. haha. He's taking swimming lessons there and guess what? He's coming back for vbc next year. =) Although...I dont think I will be helping out. hahah YAY, anyhow I"ll finish this later with even more pics. =)

2006-09-18T19:58:00.000-07:00

Currently Dying

Two weeks of school has come and gone, and already, I feel like I'm half dead. = [ And someone, plz smack me silly cuz I'm not doing all my homework again. =/ I tried...but I just can't dooo it alll.. grrr Gosh...I said I wouldn't procrastinate and everything in grade 11 but it's sooo hard to carry out what I promised. grrrr I just want ....to sleep. =] mmmm sleepings good...especially since I'm so short. haha. I wonder....if I start sleeping alot now, will I grow at least 2 more inches to the average height of girls...or is it too late and am I already past the growing stage. -_-....cuz that would be pretty sad. I'd be 5"2 for...the rest of my life!!! =S goodness gracious... oh welll....being asian gives me somewhat of an excuse to be that short. =) yes ...there we go. That makes me feel alot better. mm hmmm =) .

Anyhow, tomorrow has a 90% chance of rain... and that's NOT suppose to happen!! >=[ noooo.... anyday but not tomorrow. grrr I thought the rain would stop by tomorrow considering that it rained alot today. =/ Guess not. hmm... I have a little secret to tell. You know how Chinese restaurants aren't that great cuz we all know that if the waiter/cook drops some food, they'll wipe it off and still serve it to customers? Well...I've realized how similar that is to a pharmacy. hahaha its really disgusting. I dropped a couple of pills today on the floor, my manager saw, and told me to pick it back up, clean it off with tissue and reuse it. -_-. eww... Anyhow, conclusion of the day: Chinese restaurants and pharmacies are no good. =/ Well...I guess I can't say that cuz for all we know, white restaurants could be like that too. o_O.

Alritey, I'm gonna stuff my face full of books now. =P And maybe ....just maybe I'll have enough sleep and won't look like a panda tomorrow. o_o

2006-09-04T18:12:00.001-07:00

Alritey...I'm back in toronto now. I miss San Francisco. =( It was like a dream land...sleep in really late, get up whenver I want to, eat at awesome places, shop everywhere, and see alot of places. =D Now I have to go back to reality and go to schoool....=P Oh well, I hope it won't be so bad...I must make the most of my last year. =D. Anyhow, since my vacationing is over, I should recap on my last week of San Francisco. But...due to my short term memory...I don't remember exactly what I did everyday. So, here's all I remember doing last week. =P

Umm...we went to Chinatown and walked around...then we went to the more civilized English part of downtown and walked around some more. =D It really scared me how smelly and messy chinatown was....and more so how little kids were attending this school down there. I wouldn't be able to handle it if I were them...nuh uh. =/ yes yes...then some other day...I think Saturday, we went to Cliff House again. =D yay...yum yum. =) There happened to be a wedding outside on the balcony there at the same time we were going. =) It was soo prettty...the only thing was that it was freezing. =P I wonder how the bride survived seeing how even I was cold and I was wearing long pants and a sweater. =/ But overall it was really pretty. =) mm...then some other day we went to elephant bar again. yum yum...jungle colada. =) I swear, that place is better then all the places in toronto. yeah...anyhow, we also went to Banana Island. My favourite malaysian place. =D yayers...we went there right before we went to the airport. =) Yay, it made my day. Yeah...I'm kinda not going through chronological order with these places but I'm just remember places as I type here. So yeah, I also went to my aunts newly renovated house. It was soo pretty...but on the other hand it was soo expensive. She renovated two washrooms and the spiraly stair case. It was really pretty. =D yayers
Last week on Sunday I was either suppose to go to church or go to my other relatives house in Oakland. So I was debating over which one was more important...family or church...family or church. =/ I eventually wen to church but my grandparents were kinda pissed at me for going...but by the time I got home, they hadn't even left yet to Oakland. But either way, I didn't go to my relatives house. haha. bummer.

So that was the rest of my recap of San Francisco. yay! =) Finally...even though I forgot alot of things. =/ We were also suppose to go to L.A. on Thursday but it didn't actually happen cuz my grandparents didn't want to go. =P Anyhow, summer's over now, and I must start focusing on school. =P No more slacking off on homework ...I must get my 100% o_O. haha ...as if that's actually possible. =P And what is this that I hear of offseason softball? I'm interested. =D kinda...actually. hmmm...we'll see. =)

2006-08-28T00:43:00.000-07:00

Yes, I finally have a blog here. =) It took me so long just to find a username cuz whatever name I tried to use, someone just had to have used andrea ng or drea or dre . ahh...so annoying. Anyhow, I think I'm going to recap everything that happened this week. =) Please do not mind the lack of info for each day because I do have a short term memory. =P
Saturday
Arrived in San Francisco early in the morning. Unpacked, went to Stonestown, and splurged on cream and clothes. HAHA CREAM...I dont know wat I was thinking. I guess I was way too impulsive on the antibacterial beads that the cream offered. HAHA *how sad. Anyhow, afterwards I had a family dinner and then I cant remember what I did. =/
Sunday
Woke up at 4 in the morning to pack. Arrived at the airport at like 5:30am and then got on a plane to Las Vegas at 7:00am. It was sooo exhausting. We got to Las Vegas, checked in at the Bellagio and walked around the lobby. It's actually really big. They had this miniature garden thingy and it was soo cute. haha Anyhow, I was also able to hit the casino and play on some slot machines without anyone kicking me out. =) yay...maybe I do look older? o_O haha...I remember going to Summerlicious with Si Si and we met this guy who thought I was 21. HAHA 21? WHAT....Yes anyhow, the second day I got kicked out of the casino twice. -_-...So I guess maybe I looked older last year? HAHA...ionno. Anyways, went to Desert Palace and walked around. It was soo pretty there, the whole place was designed so that it looked like the market place in Aladdin with those funny shaped buildings (not sure what it's called) and a painted blue sky all over the ceiling. I ended up getting nothing except bottles of water so I was somewhat disappointed. =/ yup, later on that nite I went buffeting with family and then my aunt and I went to see the water show at the front of the Bellagio...so pretty. =)
Monday
Woke up at 8:00am and went down to the pool at 8;30am. It was sooo nice there. There were two big pools diagonal from each other with 2 smaller pools around it, and alot of cabanas surrounding it. Then later on that day, we went to Caesar's palace and the Venetian to walk around. There was just so much to see and so little time that we didnt' even get to see much. But anyhow, there were these cute Italian boats where a man would row you across this stream inside the mall, and sing you a song. haha. It was soo cool but we never went on it. After walking around the entire day, we went for dinner somehwere, I cant' remember. =/ Yup, and then later on that nite, a couple of us went out for drinks at this nice outdoor place. And man, it was soo humid even that late at night. =S.
Tuesday
Hmmm...I think on this day I woke up at 7:45 and went for somewhat of a swim at 8:00am. Then I went out for breakfast with family and then went to the Wynn hotel to walk around the lobby that we thought would connect to another mall like Caesar's Palace but nooo....there was nothign there. =P So we just sat around, took pictures, let my little cousin play with my hair =P and then went back to the Bellagio to check out. Then we went to the airport (there are soo many slot machines there o_O) and took a plane back to San Francisco. ...And I can't remember what I did for the rest of the day.
Wednesday
So fun! My brother drove my aunt and I to Paloalto to the Stanford Shopping Centre and then we walked around Everywehre!! =) YAY. I didnt' really get anythign thought but it was just nice to see so much stuff. yay! Okay thenafterwards, we came back to San Fran and I think we went to the Elephant bar at night aftewards...I cant' remember. It was either Wednesday night or Thursday night or Friday night. Anyhow, we had a deep talk and I didnt' realize how many secrets my brother had from my family. =S lalala Anyways, his drink was yummmy mmm ...some kind of majita, but it had this nice fruity lime taste. mmmmm. Anyhow, we came home and then we watched a scary movie. =)
Thursday
I aboslutely dont remember what I did on Thursday. o_O
Friday
Went to Cliffhouse in the morning for brunch. yummmy. We had such a nice view of the ocean too...but it was freezing!! ehhh....Anyhow, we then went shopping somwhere...can't remember where, but it was relaly boring. Later on at night, I was goign to go to felly at Sunset Church but then I had to stay at home for a family dinner so I skipped it. =/...all in all a boring day.
Saturday
A boring day again. Went to the abalone farm with family. =/ Did practically nothing for the whole day except play poker and mahjong. haha . Then a couple of us went out to this dessert place. mmhmmm
Sunday
Woke up at 8:00am, went to Sunset Church at 8:30. Then I went to Sunday School. They have soo many people in the teens Sunday School...probably like 30-40 people. Yes anyhow, some of them were pretty friendly and actually talked to me. haha. Well anyways, this experience showed me how a cliquey church can make a person feel. To be a new comer where no one talks to you sucks and just makes you not want to go back to that church again. =/ SO, conclusion of the day: make new comers at my church more welcomed and to include everyone in anything...man I hate cliques. -_-. Anyhow, after church, we went out for yum cha and then came back home...didnt do much again...except play poker and mahjong again. =D Yes, then at 10:30pm, a couple of us went out to the Cheesecake Factory downtown. The food there was not as great as it was when I came last year. =/ Service wasnt that great too, but anyhow, it was fun.

Wow...I remembered most of the stuff that happened this week. Awesome, maybe I dont really have short term memory. =) Anyhow, this entry tooke me way too long to do. I'll end it here. =P
