& your soul is all i ever wanted
Busy busy busy...
Yes I have been super busy......
sleeping....eating bad food...eating food I cooked (that was obviously good).....sleeping more...TIDYING MY ROOM.... since fall break started that is
So from my birthday:
Thank you everyone who wished me, in person, on my blog, on facebook, on phone, early late, Thank you!! I had a good birthday! Got some cute card from Sarah and Melissa, who wrote in her chinese hand writing so me goes Squint Squint...can't read chinese cursive yet...not that pro...*sigh~ Then got lots of cards!! hehe and AN UBERLY ADORABLE HEATABLE MUG ON YOUR COMPUTER FROM XIN-YI!! *Hearts hearts!!!* Everyone who sees it goes: Cool! but I like to think its cute (cause it really is!!)
Then of course there were the sweet girls in my dorm who came and gave me a DOGGY CAKE!!! ZOMG it was just too cute to eat!! And Heather stopped by with homemade chocolate chip cookies *more hearts...soooo good!!!* (right now just picture hearts bouncing around my brains)
Not to mention that it was announced by Sarah in my Chinese class that it was my birthday so You laoshi used me as an example for conversation >.> sigh~ Then the other Professor in the room, Paul Stanley, who is learning Chinese, writes on this white paper "her birthday" (in chinese) and holds it over my head......
Hahaha...but so much for my birthday. Once again, thank you everyone!!! Also to Qiao Wen who called me the night before just to wish me!!! hahaha!!! And also to mi for calling!! hehe and to babe for not wishing me and acting blur on the phone!!!
After that it was just back to...............busyness. Yeah, let's see how much I can recollect from those days.... (proof that I ish getting old)
Had work in the library as usual, and learnt some ZOMG facts on Friday when I was working. Also spent some time studying for Chinese and preparing for Comparative politics exams that was last Friday.
Ugh those exams just DRAIIINED AND SUCCCKED AWAYYYYYY ALLLLLL my energy!!! But Yay!! It is Fall Break now!! Campus is sooo quiet! My room mate has gone to Arizona and lots of people have gone home. So I've been hanging out with the people who are left here, and AHA TIME TO TALK ABOUT MY ZOMG COOKING SKILLS!!
So on Saturday Cait, Kelly and I went to watch the men's soccer team (on that note I watched women's volleyball on Friday and it was AWESOME...oo and football experience after this) and we sat there and cheered and "baw-ed" because Cait was having "baw" moments (the soccer team has some really hot guys apparently, which I don't understand how she made out when she claimed her contacts weren't on) and the game ended in a draw. bawwww~ So we went back, and Xtine cooked *DRUMROLL* ABC SOUP!!! using a soup bones, carrots, tomatos, and LOTS of onions!! Ed stopped by and used up his pork then dumped it the soup and *hearts* it was soooooooooooo good!! So it was me, Kelly, Cait, Anika, and Ed guzzling away and sipping Cait's hot chocolate. yum. hahahahah I am so proud of myself!!! I want to cook it again it was humongously satisfying and sooo good (and no one got food poisoning) muahahha
So, American football experience. 2 weekends ago was homecoming, so Ed had explained to me that homecoming is usually against a team you can trash or something....so on the day of the football game Dave drove us down to the stadium 6 blocks away and we....watched the game, with Dave and Ed explaining to Xtine about football. er.....hometeam eventually lost 9 to 56 or something so I was utterly ........disappointed, and the LAST touchdown was scored by us (so it was going 6 to 50 something all the while) and AND AND THEY MISSED THE "FREE ONE POINT" that someone told me is almost a FREE GIVE AWAY
I later talked to some of the Chinese girls and we agreed that it was NOT a good football experience. On the other hand, the women's volleyball team is EXCELLENT!! Watched them last friday and it was superb. Huang (a girl) and I were giving each other massages and commenting on good players and adorable kids.
ooo I also watched Pride and Prejudice again, courtesy of Cait *hearts! Mr Darcy!!!* and plan to go watch something else or something now. I've done my accounts, my room is almost done, and I should do laundry sometime soon before eveyone comes back. Ooo....and will of course, be doing some letter writing!! Sent home pictures and they were received so I am happy!
kchan is happy with slacking but has to start working hard soon!!
