Aug 14, 2004 16:19

i think i might be heading to the states for the long weekend!! i know, travelling again?! HAHA sall good. but im broke as a joke though! i feel bad cause my younger brother went to TO a week before i went to vancity, then two days after he got back i left. my older brother never got to go anywhere. he was planning this trip with his gf to go somewhere in alberta. seeing how i start school on the 30th, he can't go anywhere cause no one can cover his shift! poor guy, nothing ever works out for him. now they're gonna go camping for 3 days, then on september long weekend they asked if i wanted to go to the states with him. man, i'm gonna pay off my visa & mastercard, then fill it right up again!! this is nuts! hahaha sall good. like my girlfriend says, you only live once. shop the fuck out of it! HAHAHA well plans aren't finalized yet, we still gotta see if everyone works out. i wonder if the bf wants to come. we're long driving anyways. hmm....

so i'm almost done resizing pictures, and barely even done uploading them. i guess i should hop to it since that's what everyone is waiting for. well this is what we did....

thursday » arrived in bc at about 7pm (vancouver time) our flight was delayed till 4pm winnipeg time, which meant i got to see my bf again before i took off!! =) the waiting sucked but it was well worth it! when we got off the plane i saw my cousin amanda with my cousin mags! i haven't seen mags since '98. she's so tall. LOL but we all kinda expected that. we got our bags and headed back to my uncle bobby's place. we stayed in burnaby, which was like a 2 minute drive (10 minute walk). first thing i did was call my parents. they started trippin' cause the flight was delayed that long. dah well! we were just lucky that all. anywho, i BBQed burgers, and a few steaks for everyone to eat while my uncle went to the store to pick up some last minute stuff. after we ate everyone hopped into the pool but me and Alice. we didn't go in cause "our aunts were visiting" hahaha anyways after everyone finished swimming, my uncle drove us around stanley park, then we walked down robson just before all the stores closed. we didn't buy anything, just basically looked around. we headed back home and i sat and caught up with my cousin till almost 3 in the morning!














friday » we got up pretty early, early enough to have breakfast! i'm never up for breakfast! LMAO anyways after that we head to metrotown to shop. we got to the mall at about 11. after awhile we lost my uncle bobby and my cousin dee. me mags and alice just kept shopping. mags called her bf and we met up with him by mcdeez. we shopped some more till uncle bobby called asking where we took off to! apparently we were suppose to meet him at 2 for lunch, but when he called it was already 330! haha oops. anywho mag's bf (edison) drove us home and left with mags. my uncle sam & aunt susan came over with matthew and madison. they played in the pool for a bit, took some pictures then headed out. we chilled at home till almost 7 then headed to the richmond night market. it was huge. i felt like i was back in HK but a cleaner version! haha i also felt like we were at the winnipeg red river ex. but full of asians! hahaha anyways, we met up with my uncle, and mags & her friends. after awhile we lost each other and just went our own ways. by the end of the night i bought a few things for people, and everyone else was eating. i didn't eat cause i have this crrrrrrrrrazy sensitive tummy and it doesn't like alot of things. haha we chilled around till about 11 or 12 then headed home. when we got home my uncle got food poisoning and everything came back out! haha
