June 21, 2010

So today is the first day of summer in seasons, and was supposedly the "longest day of the year". It fascinated me that at nine o' clock it was still quite bright outside and I was able to still water my roses after I finished making and eating dinner. After countless days of pondering, I decided that I will not write blogs on weekends. I realized that weekends are the only days which I am able to sit back and relax, and I want to keep it that way- that is, resting or may I add, shopping. For a quick recap of this weekend, on Saturday I woke up and made french toast with my new trusty cookbook for breakfast, went to Vivian's house for a few hours and then went to Great Mall with my mother, where my mother bought a few tanks and I bought a short black skirt from H&M. We also bought about $45 worth of small random trinkets from Daiso Japan, which had a going-out sale. From Daiso I bought 2 pairs of fake lashes, fake nails, fake nail stickers, a liquid drainer, a waterbottle, batteries, and many other things which I can not recall at this moment. We ate Thai food and watched the "Tooth Fairy" starring the Rock at night. On Sunday, I went with my mom to Serramonte where I bought a teal dress that I tried on and liked at Forever 21 last week that I was too apprehensive to purchase. Next, my mother and I went "intense grocery shopping", and went to three plazas to purchase my necessary groceries for my upcoming dinners that I promised to make. I cooked meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and gravy for dinner. All in all, I had a good weekend with my mom and spent a good amount of time catching up.

8-10:30 Health Class was quite interesting today. At first, we just took notes on different types of peer pressures like indirect and direct. The interesting part of the class, however, was watching a film called "How to survive high school". It focused on the different "cliques" in high school and how most teenagers are just trying to fit in and have friends. We only watched half of it but it brought in an interesting perspective on high school.

10:30-11 Right after I was released from health class, I received a phone call from Sean, the director of my internship to report to the job today from 3-5. I realized, however, that I would have a time conflict, and decided to directly go to Elite and take the test.

11-2:30 Took an SAT test at Elite.

2:30-3:45 Took the 44 then spontaneously transfered to the T and got off at 3rd street.

3:45-5:45 Unfortunately for me, I arrived at the workshop late and was immediately picked on by our director. I was supposed to recall the names of the people that I just met, and their names, favorite ice creams, and schools. I could only remember one of the girls that I met as many had unique names like Shanaynay, Moisha, Jalaylay or some names that sounded like they were from a foreign language. Thankfully, I knew one of the girls in my class from my old middle school and said her name and another girl's name that I remembered.

5:45-6 Walked home.

6-8 Made shrimp scampi and rice for dinner.
