Again, Marilyn pays $25+ of long distance fees from picking up the phone when in Mississauga.
No more! TEXTING ONLY.
Where'd we leave off?
Tuesday - Christmas Eve Squared. Annual RHSS Christmas Party @ Jenny Lai's freakin humongous mansion near Mississauga Road. Friends, billiards, table tennis, rock band and a ton of food = GREAT PARTY. How am I going to top that?! Remind me, I have this hilarious video I took at the party that must be posted once I get the cable for my camera to upload.
Wednesday - Christmas Eve. Me, Charis and Priscilla went to Oasis for bubbletea and had an intense game of Trouble hahaha. Charis is a sore loser! T.J. invited us over to his place so we went over at 1 a.m. and played this wicked fun game for the Wii called Samba de Amigo, foosball, air hockey, DDR (he has METAL mats like in the arcades!), had a jam session with the guitar/piano/drums which I aptly named "Real Life Rock Band" and then karaoke until early morning. What a way to spend Christmas Eve!
Thursday - Christmas Day! Tony & Lilian, Quang, Marcia and the kids came over and prepared a non-traditional Christmas dinner for my parents: bisque followed by prime rib steak. Not turkey, but it still tasted amazing. Also, I FINALLY - after one arduous week - finished the movie of my parents' trip to Vietnam. Me, Tony and my parents stayed up until late together watching the movie and I was happy that they really enjoyed it. As my dad says, "Success!!!"
Friday - Boxing Day - Boxing Day hell as I woke up at 11 and scrambled out of my bed to get to Guess Outlet with my brother before the sale was over (at noon). When I got there, the jacket I wanted was sold out. I went home and then I went out again this time to Sherway Gardens where finding parking was kind of hellish. We went to Maki Maki after at like 5 and then I came home and forced down another dinner afterwards with my parents.
What comes next? Well, Charis is going to New York tomorrow even when we were supposed to go on our Blue Mountain Trip... so I guess I'm going to Montreal instead for a couple of days. Then,
NEW YEAR'S EVE SQUARED!!!
My parents came home from Vietnam early and I came to see them for the three days prior to my last exam (you can say I had a three day extended holiday). On my last day, I hung out with Becky and did the majority of my Christmas shopping at the Laurier bookstore. I bought my niece and nephew these cute boy/girl Laurier sweaters, and got my parents mom/dad Laurier mugs. What? They already have their GPS, coffee maker, expensive items, etc. from me. What can I say, I have no $$$ this year.
I drove back home and then watched The Day The World Stood Still with Howard and friends. Since I've been back, I've done minimal shopping - I just checked out the new Dollarama and bought some Christmas tree decorations. I stayed at home with my parents, doing chores, shovelling snow, I put up the *explicit deleted* Christmas tree, and I spent the majority of my time working on this *explicit deleted* 300-clip, 3 hr long movie of my parents' trip to Vietnam on to a DVD. I guess you can say that is my true Christmas gift to them (they definitely will appreciate it).
Friday, as we all know was the catastrophic winter storm that screwed us all over. Saturday night...was stupid. Sunday night, me and my dad went to my oldest brother's house for Christmas dinner and we ate hot pot and I hate hot pot. I spent most of the time playing with the kids and playing Wii sports (eew, I can't believe I wanted one of these). My mom didn't go because she was sick, which she now passed down to both me and my dad so excuse me if I look a little crapalicious for tonight's annual Rick Hansen Christmas party.
Speaking of parties,
I've realized a very important, and almost dangerous issue.
How am I going to fit 33+ people in my house?

me and becky went on a wild adventure tonight, and we took some pictures along the way.
here is us under the sea. i found it difficult to breathe under water but becky was busy being excited for all the fishies.
we took a walk on the moon. but seriously, the moon is overrated
we scaled a mountain
and then chilled on the beach for a little R&R
and ended the day sightseeing at the eiffel tower
i bet your day wasn't all that exciting!
i had a great weekend. had a killer time celebrating Cathy's birthday at Mortys with the best wings and beer in town! i got my broken laptop back from repairs, and it's almost as good as new. yesterday, i spent the day at a friend's watching movies and kicking ass at wii. at night, me and a group of people went to see the Russel Peters show in Kitchener (only show in Ontario people!) and it was freaking hilarious. afterwards, we went to mike's new place (jacey's mike) and played poker and DDR until late like stereotypical asians. and right now, me and Becky had our regular movie-day in watching Wicker Park. But most of all, the best thing... I have Mondays off! have fun at school tomorrow suckers
