Start: 5:34 PM CST FAST FAST POST!! BLUHHH... Saturday Night (WAY After Posting) Well, I was looking through my cabinet drawers, and I took out all the paper I didn't need and etc. and threw all the schoolwork from last year away. I found the song lyrics from songs from church! Hehehe... (And I did this while listening to the radio.) I found Andy's (my friend) e-mail address. (He gave it to me late May--last day of Viet Ngu school, but I don't think I added it to my address book. XP) So I got on the computer, added him, and then I was interrupted by my mom, who wanted me to check her e-mail. (And I was talking to Enin--showing him the video game my sister created--Chronicles of Synthterra! and my cousin Jason at the same time... @_@) So yeah... I think I stayed up until 1:30 AM or something like that playing Gunbound... ^^;; Oh yeah!!! Sobia had a party that day, and didn't invite me... *sniffs* Sunday Well, we needed to get to church early because we needed to head to the Buddhist temple. So today, we went to church at 8 AM. I didn't see Andy at church though. (Well, he does have altar server duty at 11... ^^;;) I saw Dalena, Diana, and Anne with their parents on the side, and at the end of church, they spotted us and waved hello and stuff... XP But my mom wanted to leave a little before the end of the church. (She said the priest talked too much and that we needed to get to the temple soon.) But being good Catholics we are, me and my siblings stayed until the whole mass was done. So I talked a bit with Dalena and Anne, and we found my mom angry, sitting in the car, waiting for us to get out. She was yelling at us, and all the church-goers were staring at her while she was yelling at us... -_-;; (And it didn't help that I went in to go look for Ricky...) So we drove home, ate a bit, Bac Minh came over, and after frantic moving-around and Diana grabbing water bottles for us, we headed off to the Buddhist temple. It was nice to be there again... It took us a while to park again. Eh, it always takes a long time to park in that temple... So big, yet little parking space. ^^;; Well, after all that, my mom and I headed towards the main part of the temple, where the whole place was crowded with people kneeling and shoes EVERYWHERE. (Yes, you cannot wear your shoes when you enter--gotta take them off, and piles of shoes were EVERYWHERE!!! ^^;;) But I took off my shoes and went in, trying to sit in a small "empty" place. ^^;; But my mom told me to get Diana and Ricky to come in (they, being crowded by a crowd), but when I got them, someone took my spot on the floor!!!!! *yells* Well, it was too crowded anyways, and I told Diana we would come back to pray later... ^^;; So after putting back our shoes, Diana and I headed to the lotus pond (man-made; concrete) filled with carp and a little wooden bridge going through it. XP There was a marble (I think) statue of Lady Buddha by the whole lake, but Diana and I kept watching fish or throwing rocks. (We also kept moving around.) Lots of picture-takers there too... XP So after playing around for a bit (also, it was HOTTT...), we took some incense sticks, prayed to Lady Buddha, put our incense sticks into the main thing, and walked off. (Ugh, I was sweating, so the paint on the incense stick came off and it looked like lipstick on my fingers... XP) So again, we tried to pray. This time, we couldn't come in at all, so we stood by the crowd of people by the entrance and prayed. After that, we wandered around... Lots and lots of going to the pond, and lots of playing around the main "road", surrounded by palm trees... @_@;; (Can't remember!) There was one time Diana took flower petals and dropped them all over my pants... ^^;; To make me look pretty... XP Then I started singing "Ridin' Dirty", using flowers... XP They see her plucking (flowers) They screamin' She try-in' to put flowers on them Actually, I can't remember the exact lyrics. All the lines are right, except the last one... ^^;; So I got hungry. I wanted Diana to come with us, but we kept wandering around. SHE WOULD NOT STOP. More sightseeing! There was that pagoda bell (which I could not get up to the third floor! -_-;;) and there was another lotus pond in the back... ^^ I bought a soda...and saw some people. It was really fun. ^^ I even got this little red rose pin-thingy! ^^! (They were handing out red and white roses--fabric, of course, and a pin to put them on the shirt.) So after that, more wandering...more wandering... Started hanging out with Ricky. Lost track of Diana... I headed to the front, where all the monks were in a circle, surrounding by other temple-worshippers. Oh, right! I forgot to tell you! When we first entered the temple, right before that "couldn't get in/too many shoes" part, they were selling birds. I thought, "Aren't Buddhists supposed to respect life???" We also saw a homeless man begging for money before we went through the gate... (Or was he praying??? o_O?) Well anyways, I was sitting under a giant bonsai pot, drinking Dr. Pepper, and there was that guy sitting right by me (I saw him while praying to Lady Buddha) with streaked-bleached spiky hair and his sunglasses on backwards. (Why do people wear their glasses backwards?) I guess it's like wearing their sunglasses on top of their head...except when your head is too big, and you gotta do that. XP (Diana and I discussed it that night. XP) Well, suddenly, the priests let out all the birds and they all flew up into the air! It was so pretty! Yellow parakeets were flocking into the air, all at once, flying around... Then I saw white doves being released into the air!!! So nice... ^^ Well, I finally found Diana (she was in that crowd by the monks) and she came up to me. There was a photographer by us (by that giant bonsai plant) and started photographing a blue/gray parakeet and I kept pointing to a yellow canary (or parakeet?) and saying, "There's another one right there..." repeatedly, but he didn't listen... Then I found my mom and Bac Minh by the kitchen area waiting in line, and they told me to get in line, but Diana and I went back to the giant bonsai plant. By that giant bonsai plant (this "giant" bonsai plant looked at least...500 pounds? And this was only the pot...), there was another plant, only maybe 100 pounds... A little dark (dark skin, I'd say 2-4 grade?) was trying to get a yellow canary from the tree. Diana successfully managed to capture the bird with her hands and let the little girl pet it. Her parents came looking for her, and she wanted a picture with the bird. But the bird bit Diana, so Diana handed the bird to the little girl. The little needed someone to hold her fan, so I offered to, but she gave it to her mom. (Of course, I'm a stranger, offering to hold something for her... XP She doesn't know me. XP) But the bird bit her while her dad (I think) tried to take a picture, and she let go and it flew away... I kept asking the girl if she was all right, but her parents walked off with her, telling her, "I told you so." and stuff like that... ^^;; So we headed to the kitchen, Diana and I. We got some food, but I found out my mom already got food for me! So I had to slide under the rails (a woman had to hold my food) and walk to my mom. My mom wanted to go home and eat, but we were lost, so we walked around everywhere... @_@ We sat down by an empty area, ate our food (GAH! Too much black pepper on mines!!), and Diana and I headed to the soda place and bought soda. After that, we went back to the eating place. Oh, while we were eating, there was a little kid crying. Diana said it was a little girl, and she's like, "Oh my gosh, they saved her bald except for her bangs." I looked back. It was an acolyte! Basically, an acolyte is the level before a monk. (And this acolyte was only...2-5??? Usually, most I see are 10-20...) It kept crying, but everyone only paid attention to their food... o_O;; I feel horrible. -_-;; After that, we all drove home... Bac Minh walked home (she's our neighbor), and after me washing up, resting (so TIRED!!! IT WAS HOT, yet fun!), and cleaning the dishes, I went on the computer...at 4 PM. (After getting Diana off, of course.) So while I was playing, my mom called me down to punish me! Yup, last night, I had to wash the dishes, and I fell asleep throwing away my schoolwork... So yeah. ^^;; I had to kneel down for an hour and pray the rosary over and over... ^^;; But something happened! My rosary broke in half while I was praying! So I had to take some wire-cutting stuff and etc. and try to fix it... I never did manage to make it perfect... So I left it there... I only had...25-15 minutes left, and I prayed using a plastic rosary. XP I went back on the computer, and at 8 PM, Ricky got on... I ate some vegetarian noodles (it was blue--mainly because of the orchids and its natural coloring rubbed off onto the noodle) and watched some T.V. Umm...I can't remember anything else. Oh yeah! Earlier, my mom needed to use my alarm clock to play CDs (Buddhist chanting), so I fell asleep...without an alarm clock. XP Monday/Yesterday Well, I don't know WHEN I woke up. No alarm clock, remember? I went on at 1 AM, after waiting for my sister to get off. I played until 6 PM, then got off to eat...something. OHH!!! Alex came home that day!!! I WAS SOO HAPPY!!! She came home from Virginia and Pennsylvania!!! YAY!!! She missed tax-free week though. She's going shopping for school next week, I think. She also wants to buy a lighter... Alex: I need to go buy a red lighter!!! Me: o_O;; YOU DON'T SMOKE, DO YOU?! Alex: No, I wanna burn things!!! Diana: YEAH!!! GO BURN HUMANS!!! Alex: ACTUALLLY, I wanted to burn paper, but OKAY! =D My brother was watching "Final Fantasy: Advent Children", and he was just finishing the credits. We ate pork together, and I went to wath T.V. He went to play "Star Ocean: Till the End of Time", but he wasn't using the computer!!! So I asked him to get on, and he let me. Also, Diana kept hogging it for MapleStory. Oh yeah... That day, we were also supposed to cut my hair, but I couldn't decide. Also, I wanted Diana to take care of Polar (giant stuffed animal polar bear), so I threw it down to her, but my mom was RIGHT next to her, so it hit her in the face... o_O;;) I was beat...BAD. -_-;; Well, couldn't decide on how to cut my hair... Around midnight, I went downstairs, Ricky and I shared some pork to eat, but my mom came out, RIGHt after we finished eating, and hit us because we were eating at midnight... -_-;; My left hand's bruised... -_-;; Oh yeah!!! There's a Buddhist temple festival down at P.A. on Sunday. Hong and Lan are gonna be there! I wish I could come... Hong's dancing. That's all I know. XP Today/Tuesday Um...woke up...7:15 AM, I guess. Umm...I listened to the radio while sleeping. I wasn't actually "sleeping", but you know that feeling you're half-awake? You're aware of your hearing, but you don't wanna open your eyes? Yup, I stayed for 2-3 hours, listening to the radio play... Hehe. ^^;; I didn't get up until...11 AM, where I went into the computer room to watch my sister play. Well, got bored, went downstairs, took some shrimp out of the freezer, put it in water (a bucket in the backyard! XP) to thaw, shuckled (which means to take off their shells) them, and grilled them (on a grill!) in a sauce... Yum. It was also gonna start to rain... o_O;; (The sky was SO DARK!) Hmm...I got on the computer around 2 PM because I was so preoccupied of cooking it... XP And I went downstairs to eat with Diana at 3 PM, but the sauce on my shrimp was...melted. -_-;; Um...my mom was at the grocery store, she just came home...etc. Helped bring in groceries. Ricky took my candy. And I gotta go. I also checked the date if I could come down for P.A. If I take Greyhound, it would only cost me about $50... Should I do it...? Hmm... I was on Gunbound for a bit, and Ricky kept bothering me...and he is bothering me now, wanting to get on. Gunbound Quotes: Yesterday "WHEE!!! I WANNA DRIVE!!!" (Me, and another guy dying; double kill) Yesterday Me: I'm an incognito Hawaiian Panda!!! >=) Diana: ...Pandas don't live in Hawaii... Me: Shoot. (Because in the game, I AM a Hawaiian Panda... XP) Today I was hibernating in a hole for a while... o_O;; Some guy shot a hole, and I jumped in. XP Kev: Haha, he's hibernating. Me: Yes I am! WAIT... I need to be overweight to hibernate! *goes to pick berries* Other Guy in Team: GET OUT OF THAT HOLE! Me: I DON'T WANNA!!! I WANNA SLEEP!!!! -_-;; (And I was like that...for three-eight turns... o_O;;) Well, gotta go! Bye! Oh, and Chi's having a party on Saturday!!! YAY! We dunno what to do... Maybe rent a movie? Dunno.
