  • 04 - rushed out of the house at 3 30; threw random stuff into my sports bag + grabbed badminton set b/c i was going to sleep over at ha's. went to look at a house on education hill so might be moving again. drove with dad to seattle afterwards and the sunset while driving was gorgeous. too bad taking pictures while driving is dangerous and a big no. got to chua early at 5; sat around + finished reading superbat fic then yeah. helped out at the dinner until 11. lots of badminton playing in between bringing out the meal courses. enough to make my arm sore the next day yeah. took the light rail + 550 + b line with ha, then walked half an hour back to her house with a small stop at 7/11.
  • 05 - got to ha's house at like 12 30 ish. it was cold and foggy and a little scary but still really nice? nice memories. went to sleep around 2 30 or 3; woke up at 8 30 and caught the bus downtown. went to eat dim sum at joy palace (ha's first time eating dim sum) and saw david there with his family. went back to chua and that was a lot of badminton playing in between other stuff. made a snapchat so that's my new fave thing until i get sick of it. lion dance practice was good. 4 - 7 though and i'm sore from life so it was tiring. took the bus w/ ha 'til chinatown. some stranger asked for a hug while i was walking to the 545 so i gave him one and after, when i was walking away he yelled where are you going??? so i was super relieved when the bus pulled up 10 secs after. tam picked me up after i was back in redmond. dad left for cali today but idk when. prolly in the morning.
  • 06 - laid around all day and felt miserable.
