the banquet was good. so bunch of old friends that i havnt seen in about a year....i miss everyone! -_-;
so then saturday was dickie's grad party...headed over to woodfield to find him a gift..but no luck. so jus decided to get him another photography book. got to his house round 7.30pm or so and lora, pitz, cam, jazz, sunmi, and of course cristi were already there. the food wuz soOoooOo good! they had this Ube (taro) cake and it wuz sooOooO good!!!! i had to take some home w/ me. chilled and watched Singing in the Rain for a lil bit and then got tired and headed home.
so sunday comes around and took dillon around town. took the "L" so he can have the wonderful chicago "L" experience, hahaha. neways, we went to the sears tower, buckingham fountain, and millenium park. it wuz such a nice day out so we just walked all around downtown. i was gona take him to michigan ave, but he ddnt really want to go cuz it is mostly shopping..so maybe next time. ^_^ afterwards we headed out to get dinner at House of Sushi and Noodles, for some all you can eat sushi. MMMmmm sooo good!!! felt like i gained 20lbs from that meal :I then we headed out to this piano bar called Howl at the Moon for some drinks and entertainment. the entertainers were really really talented. they can play and sing basically any song you want to hear on the piano. it wuz an awesome experience. so afterwards, we were walkin down state street and we see my friend RJ. he just got off of work and he wuz on his way home. he was fixing up this store for its opening day (today). he let us in the store to check it out and they had some pretty kewl stuff. shouldve bought something, but o well. we were his first customers! then we jumped on the blue line and headed home. this weekend wuz AMAZING! never had soo much fun packed in to a weekend and i cant wait to visit the pitts!
so that's bout it, now that i'm done w/ school (for now) i'm gonna do NOTHING and OH! it feels sooo gOooOood!!! ~_^
