Oh, hey reality, how's it going?

AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!  I just want to crawl into a hole and fall asleep for 6 months.

Bleh. Sorry, I'm just not feeling well anymore. 

Aaaaaaand Facebook is distracting me :P BUT! I did remember to post today. :D I've had a very fun weekend so far. ^_^ (and just week in general) So, how about I just tell you about my entire week! 

On Monday, all of the curly fries went to go see... STARKIDPOTTER!!!!!!! It was soooo amazing! In case nobody else has already told you, I did burst into tears when I met Lauren Lopez. :P It was... TOTALLY AWESOME! :D Words can't even describe it. Which reminds me, I need to put pictures on Facebook.

Rest of the week was blah, school. Tuesday and Friday we off though. Although, Friday I still had to go to school since I had to WORK! :D The one nice thing about working in the school book store is that you FINALLY get paid to be there. :P It's amazing. 

Then, yesterday and today I hung out with one of my non-curly fry friends. That was nice. I haven't hung out with her in the longest time. We watched a movie last night, and then went shopping/to Starbucks/ to Taco Bell/ took pictures today. It was just a nice unwinding day. I got the CUTEST (Ohhhh, here we go, Carrie with clothes :P ) vintage sweater. It's soooo cool! It's red and blue block striped and it has an academy emblem on it. I also got a pair of suspenders (that I have wanted forever). So, I've just had a really nice day. ^_^ Also, Virgil, I wore your birthday present today. :) I love them! (little bow clips- also adorable ^_^ ) 

Oh, my golly gee! It's almost Lynda/ Momo's birthday! :D How exciting! I'm gonna send both of you cards! It'll be great. :) 

K.Bai. 

DFTBA!♥ 

Smiles, hugs, and lots of love,

my Asian supermarket is really rather sketchy.

I will be explaining the title (i.e., the sketchiness of my [and probably some other] Asian supermarkets) in more detail today, but first of all, I would like to joyously mention that MEDICAL CAMP IS OVER!

Medical camp wasn't event that bad, really, though I think it's more because the people there were really funny and nice and not so much the fact that I was really interested in any of the health careers (although dentistry or perhaps ophthalmology or even being a physician's assistant might be a choice for my future in case editing doesn't, like, turn out well [which it probably won't, as my mother is always quick to tell me]). Also, the food was pretty good, though we kind of degenerated into eating (relatively very good) sandwiches/boxed lunches for pretty much all of this week, since we were on field trips every day. And I managed to make one or two friends, which is nice.

So now I will move on from the subject of medical camp onto the subject of the sketchiness of Asian supermarket(s).

You see, my family gets most of its weekly food from, like, Costco/Giant Eagle/other American grocery stores, but every week, my parents will go to the Asian supermarket* to top up their supply of mysterious green Chinese vegetables (and also broccoli and bell peppers and things) and the like. At the particular Asian supermarket that they enjoy frequenting, there are quite a lot of strange things, e.g.:


-prawn chip things (not shrimp crackers; there is a vital difference, the difference being that shrimp crackers are actually tasty whereas these prawn crackers look suspiciously similar to brightly colored round bits of plastic and one could probably break one's teeth on them**)


-random flies flitting about the produce (sketchyyyyyy [and also unsanitary]!)


-weird packets of herbs/spices/soup seasonings labeled in about four different languages that are supposed to have some sort of beneficial effect but I have no idea what, given the fact that I only know English (and the English is nearly always translated badly) and a tiny, tiny bit of Chinese


-giant things called jackfruit (holy crap)


-two (admittedly rather short, but two) aisles full of junk food, which really isn't very sketchy, per se, but I thought I'd include this, because my eighth-grade cooking teacher was apparently under the delusion that Asian people had no such thing as snacks or junk food


Also, today I went with my mother to look for a house available for my mother's friend (who's coming to the US for two months) to rent; she apparently noted down the wrong address and so we started off in completely the wrong direction before finally finding the darn house. (Which is why this post is so late.)


Oh, and I also got myself a tumblr.


Bye.

EDIT: Oops, I forgot the footnotes.


*It's technically an Asian supermarket even though we call it a Chinese store, since half the stuff they sell is labeled in Japanese/Korean/what-I-think-might-be-Vietnamese/etc.


**They are, in that respect, very similar to Hagrid's cooking. :)

Shopping and Home Videos

I never thought the phrase "shop 'till you drop" was a literal phrase...it is. I went shopping today with my two cousins and aunt and got some clothes, a birthday present for xiy, and some candy. I think xiy will really...um...love...her present. :) Haha. I think she'll like it. I also think House will be proud of me for doing so much shopping. Speaking of House, congrats!!! House made it onto the soccer team! Yay! I used to play soccer but I didn't really have time for it this year, I guess. It's so sad that school is starting soon. I don't wanna go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! While I was shopping there was so much back to school stuff! I wanna have summer for another month!!!!!!

I will ignore this miserable fact for now and reminisce my innocent childhood. Yeah, so today, before I went shopping, I watched home videos. I was so cute!!! My mom kept asking me to sing the ABC's, which was annoying...but it's alright. I don't really have anything else to talk about.

Wait! Yes, I do!!!! I went to Cedar Point (again) with my cousins and family. It was pretty fun. Okay. That would be all.

Washington, Adams, and Jefferson, Oh My!

*hum hum* Life's like a road that you travel on
When there's one day here an' the next day gone
Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand
Sometimes you turn your back to the wind

There's a world outside every darkened door
Where blues won't haunt you anymore
Where brave are free an' lovers soar
Come ride with me to the distant shore

We won't hesitate
Ta' break down the garden gate
There's not much time left today, yeahea...

Oh...Hello there! I'm watching/my brother's watching the Disney/Pixar movie, Cars. That was just the lyrics to "Life is a Highway". I rather like the song. I'm not going to wax poetic about "Voyage of the Dawn Treader", buuut, the trailer came out today!! YAY! I have nothing to write about....

Hmmm. Well, the first week of summer has been awesome, tiring, and kinda boring at the same time. Let's see, on Saturday or Sunday (whichever one my mom picks) we will go to an outlet, and shop! YAY! I can't wait. I love the smell of new stuff in a lovely and large mall or outlet...*daydream* Anyways, summer isn't that easy for me. I have to do "summer homework" from my mom. For example, every day, I write Chinese, and research a president, starting with Washington, Adams, and Jefferson, oh my!

OK! Now, I'm gonna go on with the questions.

1. Do you like pie?

2. What type?

3. Are you obsessed with anything? What?

4.What are you doing for Father's Day?

This last question is deep, thoughtful, and you MUST answer it. No: "...", "what?", "IDK"

5. When are you no longer a "CHILD" (I know it's 18, legally, but in your opinion)?

For all you people who bother to read  this part: HAHAHA... OVERACHIEVERS!!!...btw, if you do read this part, in the comments, write "Kapoo"

Luv, Lynda
