Start: 7:48 PM CST
Hey everyone! Today was another fun-filled day! I'll rant all about it...
But yesterday, I stayed up all the WAY TO 3 AM!!! I stayed up on the computer playing MapleStory! I'm in Orbis right now... Hehe It was fun... I stayed on the boat and played Omok (a MS version of Go) and cards! I beat everyone! ^^!!! Everyone kept calling me a "poor b@stard" since I was gonna die in Orbis... And I was gonna get mutilated... ^^;; Well, duh. But I'm not gonna fight there... ^^ Gonna go sight-seeing with Chi! Well, the visit there was so nice! I've seen my sister and brother there, but it's so pretty to be there yourself! It's a heaven-based stage, and it was nice... ^^ I got some rare items too! (Ooh! If I could, I could be Mirelle, the rare hunter from the anime, .hack//DUSK!!! ^^!!!)
Well, I was woken up at... 8 AM in the morning to get ready to go to the festival and help out. I wasn't even tired from staying up all night! ^^;; (I'm stationed at the church for community service today... I ACTUALLY finished all of it, but I'm just staying for fun! ^^)
Well, it took a while, since I was waiting for my dad and brother to get ready... (They're so slow!) Well, on the way there, my dad stopped mid-way, since my mom gave us both money to eat at the church... But my brother didn't talk, and my dad just EXPLODES at him and calling him "stupid", and etc. (My dad's like that...) It made my brother cry... He's so dumb. Why couldn't he just reply "I have the money."??? Oy.
Well, when we got there, I waved at Chi from my dad's truck, and got off... (We ran around the opposite sides of the truck until we met each other... XP) Well, that's where I first met Kai! Kai is...Chi's ex-boyfriend. Well, they're still friends... We waited for Vy (I didn't meet her then yet...) to come, but it was taking her a while, so we walked around to the Wal-Mart next to the church!
I almost got ran over when we started walking by the Wal-Mart gas station... ^^;; (It seems like ALL the Wal-Marts have their personal gas station now... o_O???)
And Kai was trying to get sick off of Pepsi... Somehow. o_O;;
Well, we went in the store... (I kept walking off since I thought we were just passing by it... But when I turned around, they were going in... ^^;;)
Well, he was walking in...eating a bag of gummy bears... ^^;; (It just seems weird to be eating food in a grocery store... People think things... ^^;;)
Well, we just walked around, two times, I think... Oh, we also stopped by the crane machine! Kai wanted to get a pink walrus holding a giant plushie heart! Well, we grabbed the right spot every time, but the crane didn't have enough force to grab it... (Stupid crane machines! They take all of our money...ON PURPOSE!!!)
Well, Kai went in to exchange his dollars for quarters, and Chi and I just walked around the entrance place, talking a bit. Then Kai came back, and started to try to claw up the walrus... But no luck... ^^;; We started heading to the church again.
Well, guess what? We took the way that Sonja and Scott took to get back to the church, and mid-way there, there were two black guys (I don't mean to sound racist) tried to jump us... One was about...10-11 and he looked PRETTY high, with a cigarette in his mouth, laughing like an idiot... -_-;; He other was taller, maybe about middle/high school age...
Now, why would they want to jump us? Well, Kai had a $10 bill that he was gonna use to get that walrus from the crane machine, but he didn't use it... I guess they saw it and thought it was a $100 bill... 'Cause when they were trying to jump us, they kept saying "We know you have a $100 bill..." and stuff like that...
THEY WERE IDIOTS. But they were mostly picking on Kai... (Probably 'cause he had the money...) Chi and I both told them to stop messing with Kai, and he called Chi a "b!tch" and he just tried to intimidate me... It takes a lot to make me feel "small"... (Ask Alaina...) Well, we just walked off, and they left us alone...
I told that story to Trang, and she said she would be scared if that happened to her... I was just glad I was with my friends! ^^ (Although Chi and Kai wanted to smack both of them... We didn't want any trouble though...)
Well, we walked around first, and started doing work! Yup! The same post that my mom was at yesterday! We all worked on that one first, but more people started working there, so Kai and Chi got their own post...
Haha Kai looks so funny in a hairnet... ^^;; (Imagine a guy with bangs kinda like Dark from DNAngel, but it's black, not purple...) Yeah... I was wearing a paper hat, kinda like those "sailor" hats fast-food restaurant people wear. I gave mines to Chi later...
Kai wanted me to wear the hairnet! So I put the hairnet ON my paper hat... XP
Well, I noticed a girl by Chi later... It was Vy! I finally met her!!! She has circular glasses and is Asian! (Who wasn't there???)
Well, there weren't really a lot of customers... Maybe one customer every 5-10 minutes... Yeah... But I did get to see a lot of people I knew there! ^^ Like Mai! She came later to make "banh mi thit", a French/Vietnamese sandwich.
Oh, I need to describe the festival. Imagine a Asian festival under a large white tent, and there are tables set up everywhere, and there's a stage, where singers come and...sing. In the back, there are stands where they sell food. Chi, Kai, Vy, and I worked there! Along with a bunch of other people!
Anna, again, was working on "nuoc mia", or sugar cane juice... A bunch of things... Really, it was a small rush... Not like one of those large fast-food restaurants... But it was fun. ^^
Oh, Kim went to work with me as soon as Chi left... We helped each other out, but Kim had to leave soon to get ready for the pageant she was about to be in...
Jessica and Kieu Thu came in later! Kieu Thu was a model in the pageant, so she couldn't help, but Jessica did! We shared a post... But by 1-2 PM, I got bored, so I went and bought food!
I ate some "thit nuong", or barbecue beef on a stick... (I even went to the outside of the stand and bought my food there! I wanted to feel like a buyer!!! XP) I also bought some "nuoc mia"...
There were times when I couldn't find enough stuff to use... Like paper hats! Kai wanted a paper hat instead of a hairnet, but I couldn't find anymore... And sometimes, we ran out of gloves... -_-;;
Really, I was surprised to see a lot of non-Asian people there! Well, not A LOT, but there were some... Most of those people bought most of the food! ^^ Like there was a Hispanic man that bought a bunch of stuff for his wife and daughter, and we made $20-something dollars!
But then again, all the food is expensive. One shish-kabob is $2. A scoop of fried rice is $1. Sure, the prices were expensive, but it made the church money... ^^
Oh, Vy and Chi kept messing with Kai... Poor guy. Vy kept saying she was gonna clip off Kai's bangs... (Think of anime-styled bangs... Long, and SHARP.) And Chi was being abusive with Kai... She said so herself, but I didn't... She kept hitting him... o_O??? I didn't see...
Anna (working in the sugar cane juice stand), Vy, and Chi gave Kai the nickname "grass"... *laughs* At first, Kai called himself a "delicate flower"... Anna, Vy, and Chi said "You are not delicate!" He also called him "precious" I think... *laughs*
Well, Chi, Kai, and Vy went to their lunch break! Chi had fried rice, Vy and I had "thit nuong" and and fried rice... And Kai had "bun" or vermecelli with vegetables...and then fried rice... XP Well, we had Kai's gummy worms for "dessert"... Chi started playing around with her digital camera, and she wanted me to take pictures! But she wanted to do it outside. We finished our food, threw the trash away, and went outside...
I gave some of Kim's friend a few gummy bears that belonged to Kai... ^^;;
Well, we walked parallel to the tent, and we saw a petting zoo! Chi said "There's a petting zoo!" *giggles* (Her tone was like a little girl in love with animals... Wait, she does like animals. XP) Well, THERE WAS NO ONE THERE!!! We decided to go to the grassy field by the petting zoo, and take pictures... Vy did a lot of poses in her pictures... They wanted a group picture, and I took a bunch of them! A lot of pictures of people chasing each other... Chi chasing Kai... Kai chasing Vy while throwing gummy bears at her... (I took them away from him and ate them all.)
One time, they wanted Kai to pose sitting on a tree... He was climbing it, really... o_O (Didn't get the shot though...)
Which reminds me... I'M IN NONE OF THE PICTURES!!! (I was taking them all, but I was in NONE!)
Well, there was a complete silence for a while, until a donkey made a weird sound... It made Chi and I laugh... Well, it started to rain, so we all went back in...
So... We went back to selling food. I shared a stand with all of them, since I was lonely... Well, the ba there kept saying we should all stop talking and sell food... (But there was hardly any customers...)
And then...IT POURED RAIN... The food started getting wet, so we had to move the tables and cover up the food and stuff... @_@ It stopped after a while...
Well, for a while, all we did was sit down on chairs. (I borrowed the chairs from Jessica and Ricky... Ricky kept taking them back from me... -_-;;)
Well, after a while, I had to go home... It was almost 5 PM, and I said good-bye to everyone. Which reminds me... I have to meet the others in MapleStory! (Kai and Chi are the "others"...)
Well, my parents are off at a wedding... I think it's the wedding of my friend's brother, Nickkie... And my parents know the parents of the bride...
Isn't there a connection? But Nickkie and my parents don't know each other... So I'm not sure... (Wish I'd come though.)
So... Nickkie's being kicked out of her house... Her relatives are staying at her house, so to make room, she's gonna live with her second oldest brother.
Well, bye.
End: 8:34 PM CST
My life gets more exciting as the months pass by, but so much more busy!!! @_@
Edit: Sunday: 10:04 PM CST
Oh! I forgot to tell you guys something!
When I selling food at the stand, there were these three guys that wanted to buy some food. At first glance, they'd look like something from a Japanese/Korean rap group... And then Jessica pointed out saying, "Hey, did you say hello to the priest?" I kept saying "Where?" since I saw no priest, UNTIL I REALIZED SHE WAS POINTING TO THE "LEADER" OF THE RAP GROUP!!!
I thought, "This TOTALLY throws off the image of how a priest should look like..." Then again, I thought of Eminem. Wasn't he a priest too???
