I’m still set­tling in. I love my apart­ment and I’ve been just relax­ing lately, hang­ing out and meet­ing up with class­mates from last school year. Jes­sica is here vis­it­ing for the week so that should be quite fun!

Yes­ter­day I spent the day out.. we went gro­cery shop­ping at Sprouts, and then got stuck in stu­pid LA traf­fic com­ing home. LA traf­fic just pisses me off.. with their 6 lanes. Ugh! After that we went to Fox hills mall so that Jess can shop around at all the Amer­i­can retail­ers. Appar­ently Taboo was at the mall, pro­mot­ing his new foot wear(s)? no clue. Car­o­line and Jess wanted to meet him, but I wasn’t that inter­ested, so I went to H&M LOL. It was meant to be, because I ended up get­ting a pair of sun­glasses and bikini bot­tom for $2 :O!!!!

There were a bunch of bboys that were part of the promo team, I assume.. which attracted a lot of attention :).

We’ve been tak­ing advan­tage of the apart­ment grills this past week :) woohoo!

Life isn’t very inter­est­ing right now. I’m just excited for school to start so I don’t feel like a lazy ass. How­ever, I’ve been going to the gym just about every­day.. yay.

Ah.. :( It’s my last full day in Van­cou­ver, after 4 months of sum­mer. It’s a beau­ti­ful day!! No one is home to spend time with me, but I might go out later to say last good byes. I’ve par­tially done pack­ing but there are so many lit­tle things I don’t know where to put every­thing!! :( It’s mak­ing me go crazyy lol.

Yes­ter­day I ded­i­cated the whole day to Pret­ty­fuls. I went out with Jess in the noon to find a birth­day gift for her brother, down­town. After­wards we met up with Isa at Colling­wood to do the cross­word.. LOL hehe :D. Then we went up to Star­bucks, because Elaine was work­ing, where we also met up with Carol. We chit chat­ted a bit and updated each other on the lat­est news while doing the crossword :).

We met up with the rest of the group and pro­ceeded down­town, where I had reserved a 17 per­son table at Ebisu. Over­all it was a won­der­ful night see­ing every­one, but I also missed those that weren’t able to attend. *tear*

The night ended up with meteor shower watch­ing. T’was beautiful.

Thank-You every­one for attend­ing, and Patty for the meal <3.

Almost school time for me! A cou­ple of weeks until class starts, but I’ll be leav­ing on Sat­ur­day for my road trip with Car­o­line, back to school. I don’t even want to think about going back, despite how excited I am.

Chris gave me a call a cou­ple of days ago which really cheered me up…! Haha. It’s nice know­ing there’s at least peo­ple to look for­ward to when you have no other family/friends away from home :). I have 5/6 classes with him next semes­ter so we might drive each other a lit­tle insane.. :P

I’ve been just run­ning around lately to get all the lit­tle stuff I need before going for the school year: food, sup­plies, money (haha..), appli­ances, tables, etc. I’ve also been eat­ing out.. WAY too much to the point where I feel dis­gusted.. I’m def­i­nitely going to hit the gym right away when I get back to LA!! Such a fatty :)

Any­ways, yes­ter­day I went out with my mumma and grandma to Rich­mond so I could get some more con­tacts. Since I won’t be see­ing my grandma for a while I wanted to have dim sum with her. After I got home, I went go-karting with Des, Lisa, and Tommy at TBC in Rich­mond (why am I ALWAYS in Rich­mond??). Even though I was last.….….… it was still fun!! hahaha. We ended up eat­ing at Ajisen Ramen.

I cut my hair off. I miss my long hair.

Pajo’s..! It wasn’t so good. Overly battery!!

You know what sucks? When you yawn so much that you start look­ing like you’re cry­ing. Yeah.

Yes­ter­day Leanh wanted to get together so I spent the after­noon with her, Isa, and Jess. We wanted to go to the beach but the weather just wasn’t cut­ting it.. so we ended up going for La Casa Gelato. After that we went to Metro­town so Le could get some items, but she ended up get­ting a REALLY cute dress at F21 :)!

On Thurs­day, 5th, Isa and I walked to Metro­town again so she can pick up her libarary book (yoohoo!) It was so HOT.. above aver­age I have to say lol. Any­ways, it was an inter­est­ing walk because we always attract unwanted atten­tion from sleazy men. While walk­ing back, along Kingsway, a guy in his late 20’s, early 30’s approached us and asked for the direc­tions to Joyce sta­tion, so we direct him. Oddly enough we ended up walk­ing side by side with him for a good whole BLOCK. He asked us which schools we went to .. and he pro­ceeded by telling us that he moved to Van­cou­ver 2 years ago from Hol­land. LMAO.… sooo Isa and I attempted to go to Star­bucks for shel­ter. Before enter­ing he stopped us and intro­duced him­self.. then whipped out the cell­phone. Let’s just say in the end that he didn’t get any digits.

The evening ended with some fris­bee play­ing at Colling­wood park and a movie at Isa’s house with Mandy in com­pany as well. <3
