- 22 - skyping & finally choosing what glasses i was going to order went until like 2? went to sleep sometime after that. had another doctor's appointment at 10 and that lasted until almost 11. got home, ate, watched stuff, napped. woke up and played more tetris. then started talking with kei at 10 30.
- 23 - talked to kei until 2 50! it was really great. i made her go to sleep 'cause she has work in the morning but we have a date planned for sunday :D talked to david for a little too but he's also working in the morning. met with the team for the microsoft performance and ate there too; got goodie bags and stayed there until 3. hung out with henry in the parking lot so we could watch kathy drive, and then went to oasis for bubble tea after. met up with david and peter at southcenter at like 6, and walked around. then went to grab quynh, trung, and thien to go bowling. thien didn't go because of me, and trung met us at the bowling alley since he was playing ping pong at school. so yeah, we got two lanes for an hour, then drove around like crazy looking for a place to eat. finally got to ihop around 11, and ate there. david dropped trung off at home and i slept over at david's after calling my mum.
- 24 - slept a little after 1, and woke up at 7 briefly before falling back asleep and waking up close to 9. we were 20 minutes late because david takes forever, and made it just in time to hop into a car and take off for the field trip. went to a chinese temple in redmond, then a huge viet one in lynnwood. they had so many statues and there was tea. yes. watched a different team lion dance at 11 30, and then explored until 12 30 with kathy, lynda, khanh, giau, and vivian. that was fun. slept on the car ride back; david and peter were ko'd in the backseat too. got my parents to pick me up from chua early 'cause i wasn't feel up to it so went home and laptop stuff until kei came online and we talked.
- 25 - went to sleep really late... the light from the window woke up me up and i panicked but then went back to sleep and somehow turned off my alarm when it went off without getting up, so i was late. skipped english entirely and showed up for art. came home and watched some running man before driving to my mom's work to get nails done (since lion dance season is over!) with isabel. she stayed home 'cause she's sick but yeah. went to target afterwards and spent an hour and 50 dollars on some food and a hula hoop for isabel. went home, ate, finished the ep of RM, fic'd and then slept. yes.
- 26 - went to classes, picked up my little sisters from school and picked up those things that twirl on the walk home. took a nap? idk.
- 27 - stayed up until 5... had art; did a white on black drawing that kind of sucked a lot. should've picked a different topic -__- but yeah. picked up sisters again from school. got home at 1, and passed out shortly after for 6 hours. woke up and ate and played some charades with the kids. started talking to david at 10 20.
- 28 - ended up talking to david until 4 45, even though he said good night to me at 1 05, and i told him hourly to go to sleep. going to play some tetris until i feel like sleeping. isabel made me sandwiches for the field trip. / woke up for that. got to class as the bell was ringing, and yeah. slept on the bus ride to and from the seattle repertory. talked to some new people while waiting for the play to start. the play itself was amazing!! haven't seen one in a while and it's a shame it's not a movie that i could've just paused at times and written down quotes i like, but i guess that's the novelty of it. there was a Q&A time with the tech person after, followed by one with three of the actors, which was great. my question was the last one and my teacher said it was a nice way to wrap things up. (what lines did you find memorable from the play?) had lunch after, and went to sleep on the sofa when i got home, because i didn't want to miss it if the usps guy came and i missed receiving my glasses. stayed on the couch until 5 30, and the package ended up being in the mailbox because it fit -___- and so goes my efforts, but it's all good. got a new pair of glasses from coastal, which was free since they do a get your first pair free promo, and only had to pay $15 for shipping. the glasses themselves were $80 so good deal, good deal. and a good way to end my february. cheers.
