Summer BBQ Party!

Yesterday, my friends and I gathered in front of my house to have some BBQ!

It was the perfect summer afternoon. In the morning, it was quite cloudy, but when it was noon, the sun came out. It really was a perfect day to have fun outside :) My two other friends and I went out earlier than the rest to do some shopping at Steveston! We bought pork and chicken to BBQ (yay) and hotdogs, strawberries, and some other snacks, then went back to my place to set up the griller. Hurray. My two friends really worked hard for it. Haha! After a few hours, a new Korean friend came over, and he was with my bloggie friend, Jessica! More friends came and it was time to eat BBQ and pizza. It was really fun. I think the BBQ was really gewd 8D

I reallyyyy hate how I only took one photo the whole day. That was so lame. I’m not sure if Jessica took more pictures though, but I don’t think she did. Haha. Too bad some people had to leave early. We played a guessing game and truth or dare, and then ate ice cream afterwards. After cleaning up, we played a video game, and then it was time for them to go home.

I really missed hanging out with friends. These past couple of months, I wasn’t able to go out with any of my friends because I was too busy. I’m still looking for a job. Ooh right, I have an interview at Guess tomorrow. Wish me luck! Sigh, I get interviews but I don’t end up getting hired XD Dammit.

I’m also veryyyy excited for the Fall semester, but I’m still enjoying summer! :)

The only picture I took yesterday

 And I’m not even in it. Lol. Tell me about your summer!




Gotta Feed the Brain

Here I am making a new post. Sigh, I don’t even know what to say anymore. Hahaha. What about life updates? You like that? You like that? K, I’m gonna give you that.

First, my History class is ending soon. Hooray! Also, SUMMER is ending oh my gosh. I really dislike summer. I have lived in helluva hot countries already (Philippines, United Arab Emirates). So Mr. Sun, I know you’re hot. But back off, this is enough!!! Lmao~ Anyway, I’m really glad that History class is over. I must say that my current History professor is by far the BEST History teacher I have ever had. I actually learned stuff from him, unlike from my previous History instructors o_O.

But nah, I still don’t like History =p Except for Hogwarts: A History #postpotterdepression I just hope I get a good mark or something D:

Second! I’m excited for the Fall semester! Yep, I’m not yet tired of school. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of school yet. I had a really loooong vacation. I’m thinking of getting 4 courses:

* JAPN 1101 – Basic Japanese II
* LING 1300 – Languages of the World
* GEOG 1101 – Introduction to Geography
* PHIL 1101 – Philosophy, Culture & Identity

I’m really excited to take all of these courses EXCEPT for Philosophy. I’ve been contemplating whether or not to drop it. I know I’ll have to memorize stuff again. Oh lawd. But yay, Lingustics, Japanese, and Geography :3 I’ve always wanted to become better at Geography. I suck at that :( Need that if I really want to travel in the future ^_^ Gotta feed my brain more stuff. Must. Not. Grow up dumb…

Third! My dad is going back to the Middle East again soon. We’re gonna go get all you can eat sushi before he leaves. Omg… he’s leaving and all I could think about is SUSHI. This is bad. LOL!

Weeeeeell that’s it. My life is so boring I can’t even.
