YAY A BREAK (from school!)

Monday, December 30th, 2002

Saturday;
I really am making use of the break thing. Didn’t get up till like noon… Did mostly couch surfing while watching TV, until about 10PM I tell my mom I’m hungry. As being uninterested in the pre-consumed Christmas food, we finally ended up over at THE GOLDEN PANDA… another local Chinese restaurant… Fun Fun. On the way home, Danille Lillo called me, and asked me to join her for a movie. We saw Catch Me If You Can. It was really good, and long. I got home like 2:30 ISH, and went (pretty much) strait to bed.

Sunday;
Went to church, ran 11 o’clock service sound (again.) Trey Thompson was back in town for the weekend, and was good to see the guy. I then play’ed geek into the evening, then Kevin and Andrew called. They ended up coming over, and we fired up some Red Faction. So a mini-LAN party was happening, yah. Steve then called, and he and Fatty Ben were @ Taco Bell, and were wondering what we were up too. So Ben and Kevin pretty much concurred the Red Faction game that was happening, the rest of us decided a good game of Tripoley was in store. After setting everything up, Steve’s Girl Friend just got back in town, so she cam over for about and hour, as we played. In the process Brian and Marc were board, so ventured over to my house about 11 or such. Now as this happened, my brother had about 6 or so friends over, and they were playing some games upstairs. About mid-night Andrew and Kevin left. Oh, and everyone else stayed the night. As you would expect, it was pretty funny. We made it to the couches at about 1:30 and watched Orange County. Which, if you ask me was quite a good flick, and had me laughing. I made it to my bed at about 3 am. Now not much sleep occurred, as my brother got up to go skiing around 7. Then Steve had to go play Racket ball with his like dad and uncle at like 9, so they left at about 8:30. Now the funny part, is Ben was over at Steve’s and locked his key’s in his car. He had just made copies, but they were still on the key ring, and being a new car no one else in his family had a key yet. So he had to get up early with Steve. He was debating to break his own window or to call a lock smith. Oh, then my ma left around 10 to go to a friend’s house, and see their baby. So yah, I don’t think I slept more than continuous 30 minutes. (Nore did anyone else I bet.)

So Brian and Marc and I were left were the remaining. Had some breakfast, played some games, yup. Marc had to get home, so they left around 1 PM. I took and shower, and am now sitting at the table, as I just finished lunch. Fun Fun! So check out the pictures of the party!

Tuesday (cont.)

So, after Champs I helped my sister on the computer for one of her christmas gifts. Then I had her drop me off over at kevin’s. Over there Kevin, Steve, Andrew, Adam, and I played some poker… um, yah I need some practice. Welp…. Yup, came home and Kitchen Island computed. I worked on my music collection, and I am up to 3,123 songs, which is 8 days, 20 hours, 57 minutes, and 56 seconds. Yup yup.

Wednesday

Got up really late, got some work done, yup… I finally accepted my hair cut, did some shopping with my brother. Went to the 6 o’clock church service, then came back to meet my aunt, uncle, cousin at our house for dinner. After dinner and dessert we opened our packages from each other and such. -see gift list-

Tonight was also the farewell to Carrie. Carrie has been my sister’s room mate for over 4 years, and Carrie has stayed here at our house for one of those full years. Was nice last year to have a bilingual person in the house to help with Spanish homework, and Carrie was always quick to help with just about anything. She was staying here as she finished her last semester of student teaching, and she got a job in TX (where her father lives.) The job starts next semester so she is off on her way to find a house and such in the area.

Hey, don’t worry all… I have been taking ah-plenty of pictures to post later!
