Why Am I Still Up?

I don't know why I'm still up. I gotta wake up at 5am to go to Simbang Gabi. But I guess I'll blog about my rather uneventful week.

Tuesday: Michael and I went to Bellarmine to pick up our yearbooks, finally. They yearbook staff always hands them out in September because people don't like the yearbook supplements so we weren't able to get our yearbooks since we were already in college. It was weird being back on campus. Didn't really spend that much time there except to pick up our yearbooks. After we went to El Grullo to relive our free period days. haha. Those burritos aren't as good as they used to be even though it hasn't changed at all. It was so random because while we were eating we saw Becca walking outside. haha. Ends up that Becca, Justin Kim, Joe, Jeremy, Sam, and Kwong were planning to go to Berkeley to visit the Cal kids. Anyways, after Michael and I went to Valley Fair to look for his White Elephant present. We were hella bored so we went to Starbucks and Santana Row after. We did random stuff like check out where the new Pinkberry's supposed to be, checked out the Container Store, and spent hella time at Best Buy. Ran into Jon Chan there... haven't seen him since May, dang. I dropped Michael back home and then I went to go shoot around at Lake Elizabeth because it had been raining for the past two or three days and I really wanted to shoot some hoops. So I ended up shooting around in 30-40 degree weather. haha

Wednesday: Uneventful. The weather report said the night temperature was going to be 33 degrees so I put a water bottle outside to see if it would freeze. Obviously, it didn't. Failed experiment? or Successful experiment? Well, at least we know water doesn't freeze in 33 degree weather. So it's true, the freezing point of water is 32 degrees. After I checked the water bottle, I went to Simbang Gabi and the food was kinda nasty. It was all cold and stuff. I made it a goal to go to Simbang Gabi and stay up until midnight but that didn't happen. Took a 2 hour nap right when I got back home. I was supposed to go to the mall with my sister and then go to La Vic's after Lennard's last final but both plans fell apart. I just ended up chilling at home. haha

Thursday: I went to the Optometrist to get a new prescription. The wait was ridiculously long. I was 8 minutes late for my appointment (being a typical Filipino) and my mom and I ended up waiting one hour to see the doctor. He probably didn't even see me for more than 15 minutes. The first thing he did was do the puffer machine thing where they blow air into your eye. I hella hate anticipating it and stuff and he ended up doing it like 5 times to me. haha. My prescription jumped from -1.25 to 1.75. Might try out some contacts when I send in my glasses to get the lenses swapped. After, my mom, sister, and I went to Banh Thai for lunch. Mmmm, I love Thai food. Pad thai, pineapple fried rice, and praram long song (chicken in peanut sauce) is hella good. Also got a haircut. I wonder if I should grow it out again. haha. That's all I remember doing Thursday.

Friday: My parents woke me up to go to Simbang Gabi at 5am. I stayed in bed, though, and eventually fell back asleep. I finally woke up at 1030 to go to Costco with my mom to get some ingredients since her prayer group is sponsoring the food for Sundays Simbang Gabi mass. Had in-n-out for lunch. After, I headed to Lennard's to play some 2k9. We played a good 3 hours of 2k9. haha, Had some pretty good nail biters and down to the wire games. I went to go see Four Christmases with Rhea later that night. I hadn't been to Union Landing/Century 25 in so long. haha The movie was pretty good but I wish we had watched Twilight, HSM3, or something else simply because it would've made for a much more interesting blog entry. haha. We hit up BJ's after to got a pizookie. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. It was unbelievably hard to find parking even though the only places in the complex were Mervyn's and BJ's. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised when the wait time for a table was 45 minutes. So we just ended up getting a White Chocolate Chip Macadamia Nut Pizookie to go. We had no where to eat it so we went across the street to Newpark to devour it at the food court. haha!

Saturday: I didn't really do much. I was supposed to play some ball with Justin Kim, Joe, Ian, and a bunch of Korean in Milpitas but I couldn't find the place off Montague so I just ended up going back home. I also made a last effort to find my sister's requested Christmas present of socks and basketball shorts with pockets. Surprisingly, it is really difficult to find some nice bball shorts with pockets. I finally gave up and asked my sister what else she wanted for Christmas.

It's almost one... I should go to bed. 4 hours of sleep!
