Gloomy Sunday
I love Sundays. It is the only day of the week where I have no reason to go about frantically, deal with mindless people, chalk my face on and dress up, or do anything that requires a lot joules. I call Sunday my day of rest however not from a religious standpoint but just recooperation. I can sleep in and not feel guilty about it. 11am seems to be the best wake-up call possible. Any later and I will suffer from headaches called over-sleep syndrome. As my duty as a daughter, I clean the bathrooms, vacuum and dust. Cleaning 3 full bathrooms is tiring. I miss when I only have 1.5 bathrooms to clean. Oh the luxury of this new house and how labourious it is to maintain it. I complain but I don't mind. I am like a guest in this house. I go out early in the morning and don't come back until 9pm. I eat a meal, shower and sleep on school days. Work days are completely reversed. I get up at 5am to make it for work for 6am half-asleep with a styroform cup of coffee in one hand. I work my 8 hours and then proceed home to nap and eat and watch my dose of Oprah and the ridiculous Young and the Restless. Sundays mean 3 homecook meals that does not really require of me to spend money. Sundays mean countless hours on the internet. Sundays mean attempt to study but drift off in daydreaming. Sundays mean laundry. Sundays mean potential shopping dates with my mom aka. she pays. Sundays is family time at the Tham's Household.
Last night was so much fun and was such a long day. Starting with my 5am wakeup call for work, being ridiculed for being a "bad listener" and working with a newly revised dream team. Coming home and chillax with the parents for their 3pm coffee and snack. The absolutely and most fantastic Khang calls at 3:30pm to give me the low down of his studying progress which determined my Saturday plans. It was Jien's and Olenka's birthday dinner at Mikado South. Funny thing is that both of them are northsiders but Mikado was the only restaurant to accommadate like 40 people. This was my first time there and it wasn't so bad. Khang and I were reluctant to go at first because it was sooooooooo far but we made it. HOLY KAJOLY I didn't expect to see so many familiar faces working and eating there like Cindy and family, Dustin, and Gloria. We sat with our cabbies (Darren, Jeff, Pat, Matt, Alex, and Andrew) due to the fact that there were a lot of unknown faces from Olenka's side of it. Prior to this, Khang wasn't the biggest fan of sushi but we decided to go all out and even eat the raw stuff *DOUBLE GASPS*. It was fun with cake, dirty jokes (on my part most probably) and good company. I can't complain. Gahh there was a water patch on the floor and I slipped like a moron. Aiya. I dislike you heels. We headed over to Gateway Rec Center for some good old bowling and it was fuuuun except for my sore thumb and nail that ripped off. How lovely. Next thing you know, Khang and I crashed on the couch in my house watching CSI at 2:15am. I've been up for almost 24 hours so obviously I fell sound asleep missing the exciting show and woke up to the annoyance of Ashley's tone of "FELICIAAAA!"
Happy 20th Birthday to Olenka, Jien and Cindy.
Halloween is next. What to do?
