distraction
lah dee dum, i'm taking a "break" from studying... let's see... last nite we went out to dinner with my cousins and their kids. My cousin bosco went back to HK this morning so we had to see him one more time b4 he left. but at least the kiddies were there! they're so cute! They laid claim to us, timothy likes my sister more while justin attached himself to me. I think i definitely got the better end of the deal lol There is such contrast in those two! such opposites! I basically got the better-looking, smarter, studious, gentle, kind one while my sister got the not-so-great looking, wants to play all the time, sometimes rough and gross yet also kinda cute acting timothy. I know its a little awful sounding to compare but u really can't help it! Timothy is just a poor victim of unfortunate circumstances, parents now officially divorced plus a creepy, weird dad (unacknowledged by the rest of the family, only my cousin and timothy have to have contact with her ex). Justin's parents are together, i guess they're happy altho my cousin is a little immature, i'm glad whitnii, his wife, can kinda counteract any negative affects this may have on justin. But by the end of the nite everyone is friends, it's just a matter of who the kids remember played w/ them more in the past. My sister saw timothy a lot when she visited by late aunt w/ my mom and justin wasn't there. I think only i represented the last time we visited them with both kids there. It's nice to see the next generation all happy and innocent, especially w/ the holiday season approaching!
Today my sister and I also strung up some xmas lights on the tree right next to out porch steps. It's amazing how tall it's grown! i still remember when we could look over the top of it. now it's like another xmas tree. not sure how it looks tho, need dad to get the xtension cord from whereever he keeps it. All the snow makes it more xmas-like too! it made me sad the last couple of years when there was no snow at xmas... XD
ok must keep studying! i've been juggling it w/ grad apps today too! getting a little stressed over that... i need supporting documents now! i'm so overwhelmed by the process....
