Long, Fun Weekend :)

Friday, July 17th - I opened the store. Got off around 6:00pm. Went to Brian's house to chill until poker night at Jerome's house. Around 10pm, we all met up... I tried not to rush or go all-in because I wanted to stay in the game for as long as I could. Jerome told me earlier at work that "You either have the cards, or you don't." So I tried to keep that in mind the whole time. I also tried some bluffing techniques on them which worked because I ended up winning the whole thing. It was Jerome, me, and John as the final three.... lol! Then Jerome killed John... then I killed Jerome :] it was a fun(ny) night....

Saturday, July 18th - After winning from last night's poker tournament at Jerome's house, I woke up at 6:30am to hike up Mission Peak again. It was me, Brian, John, my dad, Jerome, Sean, and Jenny. Buuut maaaan, my legs were so sore! We didn't go up to the top, I went to the 3rd bench with Jerome and John while Sean, Jenny, my dad, and Brian went up to the 4th bench. The 4th bench is the last bench before you head up to the peak... so it's still very high up there. I think Mission Peak is a really good workout because one, it has major incline and two, my whole body is working and sweating. Afterwards, we showered and got ready... around 12:00pm we headed over to Sweet Tomatoes in Santa Clara for lunch. At 2:00pm, I went to work... I took it easy at work... conserving my energy since I had to close the store with Luis. Brian picked me up from work at around 9:30pm, and we ate at Jack in the Box. Once we went back to his house, I knocked out completely.... I wanted to play with Brian but everytime I closed my eyes for just two seconds I'd just fall straight asleep.






Sunday, July 19th - I woke up and went to church because my mom told me they were doing a head-count. I almost fell asleep during the lesson but I tried pinching my hands as hard as I can to stay awake. Mayumi wore dirty green plaid flats with her floral dress but then, that's what happens when we let Mayumi dress herself up. Funnny. Today I also wore a sleeveless top to church. It was no "sphagetti strap" or anything... and none of the deconesses stopped me to tell me it's wrong... so I guess it was ok? LOL. Then my dad, John, Myooms, and I went to Liou's Restaurant near Golfland for lunch. Then at 2pm, I went back to my house to find that Ka Ehmir took his couches back from our living room. So I took the couches in my room back to the living room with the help of my brother. Since there was extra space in my room, I reorganized, cleaned, dusted, vacuumed, and mopped. AND I did laundry while I cleaned. I felt so productive :) Then I went to Valleyfair with Brian and John to return the quad eyeshadow that I bought last week...I felt that the colors weren't "me" because they were too girlie. It was just a relaxing day.


This weekend I'm looking forward to going to the Garlic Festival in Gilroy. My manager gave me and Jerome that day off just so we can go. I'm excited because a lot of us are going! And on top of that, I get paid this week :) There are these new booties that arrived at our store that I sooooo badly want!!
