Random Day in Sac

This weekend was quite peaceful and relaxing because I did not have to be lectured at. The reason why I did not have to be lectured was because I did not go back to SF. I stayed in Davis because I promised 哥哥 that I would hangout with him because for this past summer session I have been going back to SF all the time. I think this was the only weekend that I stayed in Davis.

On Thursday night I went to Arden Way with 哥哥 and 老婆 because I had to buy my sister her birthday present and I did buy it hope she likes it. I also wanted to buy presents for 哥哥 because next month is his birthday but if I were to buy it then he would know what I bought hehe...so I am just going to by it in SF. (哥哥喜望你喜歡我送既禮物) After shopping at Arden we decided to visit Koy at Nordstorm Rack. We were happy to visit Koy and we ended up buying more stuff then we thought. As it was getting later, we finally left at 10 pm to go somewhere. We decide to go back to Davis and we were hungry but I wanted to do something after we ate so. So we ended up deciding to go to Koy's place. But if we were going to go to Koy's place we would not have time to cook and eat. So we went to Yummy Juice and we had congee, salty fish fried rice, stirfried udon with chicken, and curryfish balls. After eating we went to Koi's wwere we started to drink and play king's cup (LITTLE MAN). I was drunk so I don't know what happened...haha...next we just went to shop more at downtown westfield mall in sac and shopped for dvd at vietnamese central in sac. After that we got hungry again. Actually, 哥哥 was hungry again don't want to see him grumpy again. So we ended up going to Yummy Juice again. Wear the same clothes...hehe...After Yummy then came the Japanese Supermarket were we walked for a bit. Then 哥哥 wanted to go to target just a comb hahaha...This was the last thing we did. Then we came back home to Davis.

I feel that my blog is boring =/

Ups and Downs

I am back in SF and yesterday night was a night to remember because my grandma asked foor my grades from Davis. I gave it to her and if she accepts these grade, then she will continue to pay for my tuition at Davis. If she doesn't then she will stop paying for me. That means there maybe a chance that I will be leaving Davis but i will make sure that will not happen. I am not going to be leaving Davis that easily because i have to much in Davis. I am not going to leave my present life behind for my future. The worst that it can get is to get a loan and I will do that if it is necessary. I have to much friends in Davis and memories as well. I will do my best to continue my education in Davis. So dont worry you guys I will try my best.

I am just now going to continue life how it is. I am going to a family BBQ tomorrow, but my uncle from Texas is coming down. The whole family will be there and I will be able to catch up with many cousins that I have not talked to in months or even years. I just love family gatherings because it is a great way to connect with loved ones no matter if you are older or younger. But I will remember to take pics so you can see what we did at the BBQ.

TBC...

On Sunday morning I woke up at 9 or 10 to get ready to go to San Ramon because my cousin was hosting a family BBQ. When got ready we got ready to leave. The drive was suppose to feel like it was short but it felt really long maybe I was excited or something. I just ended up listen to music and I was sing the song "Knock You Down" hehe...nobody stop me from singing. When we finally arrived at our cousins house i got out the car and it was freakin hot. Good thing there was air conditioner at the house. We went in and we started to talk and say hi to everyone until lunch. We had a lot of food. We had snacks before lunch: Homemade dip and Bread, vegetable platter (bell pepper, broccoli, carrots, snow peas, cherry tomatoes) , brownie, cookie (chocolate chips, white chocolate, oatmeal), pig's in the blanket, chip n dip, and sushi. Then came lunch: prime rib, Chinese fried chicken, grilled chicken, baked chicken, chow fun, chow mien, Chinese broccoli, hot dogs and pizza. I forgot one important food RICE. I ate a lot of food and I was going to get food coma, But I didn't sleep just caught with my cousins and made fun of our aunties and uncles hehe...At 5 or 6 we started to leave and that's about it for the party.

Responsiblity

Last night was very productive because I ended talking a lot with people. Talked about problems with friends to just joking around. The most important conversation was the talk with Chris Wei. I knew I had to talk to him someday and yesterday night was the time to do so. We talked about the issue that formulated on the interesting night. Apparently, he blamed everything on his alcohol, which we all know we can't blame it on alcohol all the time. The second part was the defriending on facebook. The explanation of the defriending situation he said that he did defriend but blocked. Most people would consider them the same. He felt that it was not fair that everyone was not giving the benefit of the doubt. I said to him you made a mistake and you must accepted it. We argued back and forth about the same problem and he was protecting himself quite well. In the end he realized that the problem him and that it was not us. FINALLY!!! I explained to him that some of your aspects of your personality need change. So he said what? I told him that his inconsiderate towards his friends and he tends to not accept his mistakes. (Because if one is a friend one would take into account what a friend says. If one doesn't take to consideration they question their friendship). Also, if one doesn't understand one's mistake then one will never learn from his mistakes. In the end he said he will change but I can not do it over night.

The second thing that happened that stressed me out was the one of my friend crashed into our front yard pipe, which flooded the whole front yard. I had to turn off the main pipe, which caused the house to have no more water =(. That means no shower and I cant do anything related with water. The next morning I couldn't go to class because I had to fix everything. I called Plumber MD at Davis they fixed it YES but for one little piece it cost $256.98. Everything is fixed and now I have water now ><. So that was my day talking to a plumber but he sure loved our garage hehe...he said it was fucken rad haha...

Bad Day

It 's not good to hear this but today I am having a terrible day. Not only because of my daily problems but also how i am felling right now. I am very tired right now. Because of being so tired, I could not pay attention in class. I just felt like an old man but I knew that it was important for me to go to class. The last time I felt like this was a long time because I try to stay positive. I promised my 哥哥 and 老婆 that I would be positive. At most I have been doing fine but today I is so hard to hold back.

Likewise, today I can't go back to my house until late afternoon because the landlady of the house that we own will be at the house near afternoon. So no one should be at home =( That means I have to stay in campus for the whole day. I dont want to stay in campus for the whole day because there is nothing to do in campus except study. That is off the list because I left my ochem textbook at the house. I am just sitting at the MU blogging finding out what to do.

I am the type of person that doesn't like to be bored. Personally, I feel that no one likes to be bored hehe...I will probably call up my 老婆 to hangout. The worst part is that I can't stay home tomorrow as well because the landlady will be at the house morning time. That means I have to wake up at 8 am, so I don't interfere with the landlady. (哥哥 can you wake me up tomorrow?)

What i really want to do is to go to Sac right now. So i can keep myself busy until the landlady is gone. But I dont know if anyone would go with me, so who knows what will happen today.

I will tell you how my day went

TBC...

I will tell what I did for the rest of my day before I was able to go back home. Finally, I called up 老婆 and she was still sleeping as usually hehe...sorry. Then finally she woke up and asked me what I wanted to do. I WANTED TO EAT. I was so hungry that I could eat a whole cow. So then she picked me up and we went to Bistro. I had a nice sandwich and some fries, which was really filling =) After that we had to figure out to do, so we decided to go to Arden Way. When we got there we ending looking at everything but I couldn't find anything =/老婆 had troubling finding new jeans because stated that she was too short hehe...When we were done with Arden Way it was about 7 pm. We were at Sac anyways so I called up 哥哥 to see what he was doing because we wanted to hangout with him but he was busy. So we just ended up coming back to Davis and watched some Hong Kong Movie, which was hilarious (哥哥你应该睇呢個movie).

I Need To Catch Up With Sleep

Last night was crazy because I just finished hanging out with 哥哥, Jim, and Eric but my sister told me that her boyfriends nephews and niece (5 of them) would have a sleepover at our house. I had no say in this decision, so I went along with it. I love kids but i was just to tired to play with the kids and I ended up playing with them. They loved me because I am just playful and nice =). But when I was playing with them, in my mind I kept on thinking of sleeping. Question "Has anyone end up not sleeping because they passed a certain time at night?". Well, that ended up happening to me =(. I just laid in my bed with my eyes open and the worst part is that I had to wake up at 7 am to get ready for a banquet.

I had to wake up at 7 am today and it was difficult to do because i am use to getting up at 9 or 10. So I woke up and found out that everyone was not awake yet. So i laid down on my bed again but ended up falling asleep again hehe...then my ngeen ngeen came in to my room and told me to get ready but it was to late because my aunt came to pick us up already. This means that I have to take the bart to Chinatown =(.

That really sucks because SF transportation is horrible because of the large crowded and rude passengers in the buses. So i got ready and I finally reach to Chinatown and end up being late for the banquet. I went to the resturant called Lychee Garden. There I met up with my ngeen ngeen, mom, aunt, and nephew. The interesting part about this party was that there was a lot of Toisan happening hehe...i love that but the bad part was that the food that they choose for the banquet was horrible.

Sorry for the boring blog. Hope tomorrow will be an interesting day. =)

笑话

One of my joke inspired Derek to make a joke that has the same concept. =)

My joke: One of my grandma's friend just immigrated to United States but when you come to United States you need to take a citizenship test that would prove that you are a really American citizen. So they asked my grandma's friend some question, "On what date is it the birthday of United State?" As every American should know it is July 4th. So my grandma's friend said, "敗加火". Hahaha...it sounds like July 4th. The man said "Congrats you are now an American citizen"

Derek's joke: Back then when it was WWII the Philippines were invaded by the Japanese Military causing chaos but there was a general that help the Filipinos. His name was General Douglas MacArthur. So MacArthur said to the people of Philippines, "No matter what ethnicity you are you can immigrant to United States". Apparently, there were Chinese living in the Philippines. So the Chinese proceeded to answer the question to gain citizenship. So the asked, "Who was the general that saved the Philippines?" The Chinese thought for a moment. The person next to him in line sneezed. The Chinese states to the person that sneezed, "大吉利是". Hahaha...sounds like Douglas. The man said "Congrats you are now an American citizen"

More to come hehe...=)

Problems in School and Problems With Friends

Today was the first day for Summer Session 2 at UCD. The class that I am taking is a retake. Last quarter I didn't get a good grade in Organic Chemistry. People that took Organic Chemistry know what I mean. I am hoping that I will get a better grade in this class because this class is a prerequisite for all my other class. I feel that I am not going to succeed in life because of my education. I know that one grade can't change my whole life and that I should continue life with my head up. The problem is that I am a worry freak and I tend to over think my problems. Hopeful someday I will change this weird habit. As many of my friend said "You will do fine don't worry" I really do try to not worry. As all Asians know that your parent want you to be an over achiever but that is just hard to do in college. I feel sad sometimes about how I do in college but I am glad that I have friends to comfort me. I tend tell my problems to my 哥哥 and 老婆. Thanks for talking to me for all this time. After talking to you guys I feel good about myself. =)

The second thing that I have to talk about is the question: "What is a true friend?". Last week something really happened that change my feelings about friends. I know this friend for about 2 years but last Thursday all of my friends were chilling and this friend was in this hangout but he was getting a little drunk or tipsy. As result, he ended up saying some stuff that really hurt me. I thought for a moment think maybe it is the alcohol talking to me. There is a saying that alcohol brings out the truth. I still wonder what he said was true =(. I thought I was a great friend because when ever this friend had a problem I gave him my time to talk. Maybe I saw wrong but I don't want to see wrong though. For my whole life of having friends I never had this problem before. My sister and cousin had a talk with me last last week about friends. Ironically, who knew that it would have come bit me on my ass that fast. I get sad thinking that I had this friend for 2 years and in the end I get sometime that is just terrible. After two nights of this incident, my 哥哥 called me to tell me about something. I had no idea what was happening he just told me to check my facebook, then he asked me "Did (this friend) defriend you on facebook?" I look for a moment and found out that this friend indeed defriend me. Are you a true friend if you do that? This is the first time this happened to me and I fear this will happen to me again =(. The ironic part about this is that this friend is older than all of us but he seems to act like a child. I can truly say that I have three true friends and this is 哥哥, 老婆, and ah soh. This is a message to you guys: " Hope I will not lose you guys too because I will feel like I have lost a part of me"

我當你地我既家人啦!!!=)

Finally I Have a Blog

Today is another random day. I just finished the first part of Summer School last week. Now starting the second part, which is very boring. But the fun part about coming back to Davis is that I can spend time with friends. Just like last night, it was the most random thing that I have every done. Me, Lo Poh, and Derek stayed up all night taking about random stuff. I found it quite fun because I was bored to death anyways...Hehe...=). The best memory of last night was that we were listening to Disney Songs in Different Languages: Cantonese, Mandarin, Korean, Vietnamese, and German. The one that i choose as the best was the Cantonese. The Mandarin was horrible because it was Bejingnese. If anyone hear Beijingnese they would so understand that it sounds ugly (Sorry to those that speak it). We did a lot of random stuff but i can't list it all because you have to be there to understand what i mean...=). The last thing that we did before ending our adventurous night was that we went to IHOP at 7 am because we were hungry. At IHOP we continued are conversation but we were getting tired and Lo Poh was getting grouchy...but i can deal with it. In the end we all went home and slept...I am such a pig...hehe...I hope that tomorrow I will have a better day. Now i am just sitting next to my computer thinking what to do next. But I really want to go to Sac and spend time with my Big Bro, and Lo Poh.

Thank God that I have friends
