Family Dates

15SEPT09;; Had a date with my daddy today. He texted me and asking me if I wanted to go to a dinner and a movie. My response is yes. So I got ready and went to my grandparents' store to meet him. When he got there he asked what I wanted to do and I was very undeceive. So we ended up watching Sorority Row. I thought Sorority Row was very rushed, but I liked it. It's confusing as well to...[INSERT SPOILER HERE]. Yeah, not going to spoil anything from this movie. But I really liked the actresses Jamie Chung (Claire in the movie) and Leah Pipes (Jessica in the movie). After the movie, daddy and I went to dinner at Mel's Drive-In. I ordered a Mushroom burger without fries and a chocolate milkshake. Daddy ordered something from the breakfast menu and a strawberry shake. I had a fun time with daddy. :) Overall, the night was alright-good. I got to see a movie I wanted to see for awhile (even though it wasn't as good as I thought it'll be) and I got to see daddy.

16SEPT09;; My dad's side of the family (excluding my dad) went to Crustacean to eat dinner as a dinner to send my cousin and I off to our second-year of college. We shared appetizers and some entrees. I ordered the Helene's Ravioli. I thought it tasted kind of weird, but still edible. I ate most of it, but shared it with my younger cousin, Darren, and my aunt Tania. I ordered Creme Brulee for dessert and that was so good! :P I haven't had it for awhile...so I was happy to order and eat it! Manns, this place is expensive. The bill came out to be almost $500. My grandparents paid though. So expensive...

Long, Long Day

11SEPT09;; I was helping my grandma cook curry chicken and Vietnamese noodles. I wasn't able to do much on here or return comments and whatnot. After cooking, my relatives arrived. My uncles and aunts and so on came to my aunt Maggie's house so we can have a big get-together and eat dinner. Who came? My aunts, Virginia and Nancy; uncles, William and Jack, my aunts' moms (two of them), and my grandpa's older brother came. Many people including the regular crowd, my aunts, uncle, cousins. The house was crowded with people chatting and eating. I kind of fell out of place, I was quiet. I had no one to talk to and nothing to do. I wasn't able to use my computer because it was too loud. My mom, grandma, and aunt Virginia's mom left with us around 9-something pm. Got home and I used the Internet for a bit and felt tired and slept. Today was a long and tiring day...

12SEPT09;; Was thundering last night...I mean, this morning at around 4-something am. It woke me up. It was also hailing! Hard! Been thundering throughout the early morning. So scary... x] All day we went out. The whole she-bang went to eat brunch in San Mateo/El Camino Real. The seats was a long wait. After, we went back to my aunt Maggie's house. Then to Marco Polo and bought ice cream/gelato in flavors: Durian, Red Bean, Taro, and Mocha Chip. We bought a pint of each flavor and the total was around $36. Went back to the house and ate the ice cream/gelato.
Then to Chinatown and bought two dozens of egg tarts from the famous bakery in San Francisco, called Golden Gate Bakery. Went back to the house and stayed there until 10 something and left to go home. Here I am, typing away. But now, I should get ready to sleep. I have a long day ahead of me tomorrow. There's a wedding to attend! My aunt Betty's wedding...again, I have to help at reception. Why am I always helping different aunts' weddings in receptions? I have never agreed. They just think that I would do it. -.- Boo!!
