aloha! i'm about to go to bed but i thought i should rant a little bit on here. today, i woke up at 1:30pm. super duper late, i know. it was my brother's graduation yesterday. the grad ceremony started at 7pm and ended at 9:30. we went to a chinese resto after-- i think it's called chiu chow man in mississauga.the food was so dang good! i thought i won't eat a lot since i was already too tired to even close my eyes. when i saw the food i was like @_@ wowowee! their specialty, in my opinion, would definitely be the duck dish. at first glance, you'd think it's turkey cuz it was sliced really thinly, which made it look like turkey. the best part was the dessert though. i almost forgot my name after having that porridge kinda thing. it looks like champorado or chocolate porridge in the philippines, but although i hate to admit, it's better than champorado. instead of the sticky rice, they put mountain rice, which is really really really good! they also put mashed red beans and some jelly stuff in it. too good to be true!!

so after eating, we went straight home, which was around 12:30. although i passed out right after, my sister, wicky and ced still played cards or something. i don't know how they did it. well i had my stats exam earlier that day, so maybe that's the reason why i was dead tired by that time.

i really can't believe that my very own bb is in high school already. time flies by so fast. i'm scared for him as he enters high school cuz he's really still a baby. i don't think he has a mean bone in his body towards others. he trusts people easily and that's not really good because the real world out there is a mean world. i wish i could just put a bubble around him and protect him; like that movie where jake gyllenhaal was in. that movie was cute btw!

moving on, right now i'm reading alice sebold's lucky. so far it's been pretty good. it's basically about a teenage girl getting raped one night as she was walking back to her dorm at 12 am. this teenage girl is actually the author herself. she's basically reiterating how she got passed that ugly phase in her life and how she is trying to understand why things happen and she tries to see beauty in everything around her, which is inspiring if you think about it. not every victim of a crime can forgive and develop a positive outlook in life. ironically, you don't really have to be a victim of an overt crime to have a bitter attitude in life, right?

now that i'm on break from summer school, i plan to devote some time to helping doing house chores, finishing the novels i borrowed from the library and bake, bake, bake everyday! it's sad that i have been spending little time at the kitchen, where i enjoy my time the most (eating & baking hehe). i think i'll try to make cupcakes this weekend and experiment a bit on what frosting is good. it'd be better if i have people to eat them though. my sister is always home yes, but she's conscious about her weight so i can't really make her eat everything i make. ced, on the other hand, is my hero. he always eats whatever i make hehe! i bribe him, that's why haha! no seriously, i love that i have a bro cuz he's always, always hungry!! the good thing is he doesn't gain weight cuz his metabolism is too fast and he's too active!! always showing tricks and things he learned in karate, which although sometimes can get annoying, i love that he's still does that cuz it shows that he's still our baby! hehe!! love my bit to bits! rawr~

other than that, work's been going well. i have a story though. so there's this group of (pana) family that messed up the photo albums i neatly arranged on the shelves. at first, when i was walking away to arrange some stuff on the next aisle, i already knew they'd make a mess, but i was like, okay whatever, i can fix it later anyway. when i got back 10 minutes before the store closes, i saw that they literally opened each type of album there is on the store and tried to fit the picture they brought with them. holy cow!!! if i saw myself that second in the mirror, i think i'd see smokes coming off my ears cuz i was really pissed like holyy crappp!!!! so anyway, i took a deep breath and i was like 'suck it up mei; this is your job. you get paid to clean other people's mess' but fate helped me to release my anger ahhaha!! as i was cleaning the shelf, i noticed that they left the picture they had with them and so, the demon in me prevailed and instinctively, i tore the damn picture. HAHAHA!! i don't feel bad at all. HMP! that's what you get when you're an inconsiderate customer hahaha!! maybe, just maybe, i'll feel bad for what i did.

but if you think about it, things happen for a reason right? god allowed them to leave the picture so i could do something about it.. HAHA! fondest memory at my job yet.

til the next post folks. have a great weekend! :)
