A Farewell to Winter Break 2008-2009 :(


This winter break was definitely not too shabby.

I had lots of fun for the first week of winter break, because it was very productive, the way I like it :). The key highlights of the first week of winter break would have to be Susan and I's 4th anniversary where we went to Macaroni Grill and Disneyland. Then there was Jeff's 18th birthday party where we watched the Lakers lose :(, then there was the yearbook party where we all played hide and seek, ate food, then played cranium, where I was the star actor :). Then there was Diya's party where there was lots of yummy BBQ food, but Susan was not there :(.

The 2nd week of winter break was quite the opposite because it was the week of Christmas. Christmas Eve and day was nice though, although I would have liked it better if my family decided to go somewhere outside of Rowland Heights. We ate at Asia Buffet, which was a plus because we all got to FINALLY go out to eat after like a whole year of not eating out as a family. Then, the rest of the week was a mixture of practices, random hangouts, and futile attempts at doing homework.

The 3rd week of winter break was a mixture of both productiveness and unproductiveness. The beginning of the week was frustrating because I was trying to cram in last minute hangouts, which did not work. I'm glad that we went out to Souplantation, Benihana, and Guppy's! Then there was when we hung out at the mall, and a Rough Ryder sleepover last night.

About the sleepover
The sleepover was pretty chill. Marc and Daniel picked me up @ around 8 and they played Fallout 3 (marc on his laptop and daniel on his ps3) while I surfed the web until 11. Then I talked to Susan on the phone until around 1ish. Daniel was talking to Aileen until then too. Then we played SSBB until 2 and then we took a "Food Run" to Daniel's kitchen for some late night cereal feast until 3. Then Daniel and Marc played Super Mario Galaxy until 4. Then somewhere between 4-6, we just played Fallout 3 and surfed the web again. Just being bums is part of the creed, I suppose. We slept around 6 and I woke up somewhere around 1 in the afternoon. I don't actually count waking up at 1 as "sleeping in" because we slept at 6 so it is more like getting my regular sleep on. Anyways, it was a pretty chill and traditional sleepover.

Today (January 4, 2008)
Not much happened today aside from a random trip to Wal-mart to pick up pictures and a trip to Stater Bros to pick up grocerries. Other than that, I just sat at home and mooped around. It is astonishing how time flies when you just moop around at home. Not exactly one of my most productive days, but I "attempted" to study for physics and other stuff.

I tried to take care of Susan today because she started :(. Poor babe.

Anyways, I will miss these things about break
-waking up at 10. Seriously, it is the best feeling ever because my body does not feel like I got hit by a car each morning.
-spending time with Susan. Obviously, this is THEE number 1 thing that I will miss this break. I had such memorable and meaningful times with you Susan<3. All of our memories are soo great :). We finally got to have intended formal dinner dates this break too (Macaroni Grill and Benihana), and they were both very very very nice and memorable. From our humble junior high days to our senior year in high school, spending time with you has always been very memorable and sentimental in many ways. You still give me those jittery, butterflies, warm, fuzzy feelings whenever you are with me. You still make me laugh and smile the biggest :). You still make my heart melt and you make my soul smile. Our memories are what make us up and what started us. Armed with both cameras, we are SO ready to document our memories now :). I cannot express how much I love you Susan. You always keep me smiling with your genuine and loving personality. On top of that, you are GORGEOUS and BEAUTIFUL beyond comparison. That is definitely a plus, but don't take me as shallow :). Calling what we have as LOVE is definitely an understatement, I call it DESTINY or ETERNAL ATTACHMENT. Although, those names are very dramatic sounding, you get what I am trying to get at :). Well we have been a couple for officially 4 years now babe. And you know what? I've never been happier for the past 4 years. These 4 years have been a blessing. Everyday that I am with you, I am grateful for being blessed for having you in my life. Without you, I cannot imagine being the same person I am today. I can only thank you for being my BIGGEST supporter and for MOTIVATING me to get past life's obstacles. You keep me going hun. And so, winter break has been very memorable and life-changing, but, like how we are always moving forward, I don't expect the memories to stop rolling in<33.
