Hey Buddies!
Time for an update. I am going to dinner tonight with my former apartmentmates. I'm glad we are all finally getting together because it is so easy to just forget about each other completely after you stop living with each other. We are going to CPK and I am pretty much gonna eat for free because Romi gave me her CPK gift card and I have a coupon for a free appetizer : ] Yummers.
I am also learning HTML at my internship at the San Diego Supercomputer Center. I felt useless for a while, as they just gave me books to read on HTML. I wanted to put what I read into action so I made a cheesy web page. It was about tea. May nobody but my supervisor ever see it. It's embarrassingly ugly. I also am learning a little bit of CSS, which I never knew existed and overrode a lot of HTML tags! Wow!
I really like my Spanish class. Que lastima though that it's so hard. I really like my prof/TA because he's Chileno!! And he's merciful and gives me extensions on assignments. I want to bring mate or dulce de leche to his office hours to show thanks. I have a midterm for that class on Friday. Study study!
Chinese New Year is tomorrow! I'm really happy to be able to go home; my fellow comrade, I mean, Chinese, Coleman will be taking me back. I get to pick up some black flats I forgot at home and see my mom. And eat Chinese food, which I haven't had in a very long time. (I have only been cooking Korean.) I wish there were an AIM icon that says, "I love my mom!" because there's one that says "I love my dad!" Not that I don't love my dad, but I just want a I love Mom one. I was on AIM the entire time at my internship today. Legally because one of the people I worked with was working from home and we needed to go through something step-by-step, so while I waited for her to respond, I'd scope around for AIM icons. =] I settled for one of a boy eating glue.
And how could I forget?? WE WON MISSION BOWL!
Ray attributes the win to the food challenges he gave me and his "encouragements" for me to "bulk up." I attribute it to the fact that we're good and we practice.
Before I show fotos, here are some epic moments:
1. I got a flag!!!! My position never gets to grab flags because all we do is knock down girls, but there was an interception and I was like, "Nuh-uh girlfriend" so I dashed to her and yanked it off of her. Who knew I could run that fast? I owe it to the trusty treadmill. Btw, I can run for 2 miles now on the treadmill and not die!
2. I got hit in the nose. In a valiant effort to repeat #1 on another interception, I dashed to her once again, only to have Suzie, our QB yank it before me, and with the force of her yank, it smacked me in the nose. I instantaneously fell to the ground out of pain and I started tearing up because of the pain. You know how you cry when you get socked in the nose? Yeah, that's what happened. Thankfully there was no blood or anything, just a moment of pain.
Anyway, here are the fotos:
Me doing what I do best.
WuWu doing what she does best.
Trying to protect Moon.
Victory is ours!!!
We own! I mean, won! :D
edit: I didn't know this epic flag pull picture existed! And I had totally forgotten that it was BoBo's flag that I pulled! Awww, I love BoBo!
