oh sundays...fighting the lazy sleepy feeling after a wonderful weekend

happy sunday, monsoon outside, homework day. oh right maybe its not that for all of you. oh sundays. they are always so hard. Cause of course I never actually catch up on sleep during the weekend or get ahead on my homework cause I just wanna PLAY! But then Sunday Im sleepy and just wanna be lazy but have to do homework all day. I think I'll be fighting with Sundays for the rest of my life. Thats ok though. I've been in the library for hours cause I still don't have a computer so I have to use these ones buts its been kinda nice. Its pooring rain outside and its weirdly cozy here and just quiet, I like it. The library helps me with my Sunday problem :)

I have had SUCH an awesome weekend.  Friday we went to POH and as always its just so good for me. And so much fun too. Its fun to go and hang out with different people and see this totally different world and be reminded once again of how freaking fortunate we are.  We had a fun group and went to Thai food after and it was so yummy.

Yesterday a few of us went to Stella's house to have lunch and see her house. I have been wanting to go over there all year and it was SO good to finally see that part of her life. Its funny how being in someones home and hanging out with their parents and seeing how that part of their world works can just help you understand so much more. Especially cause her culture is different than mine. It was so awesome. Her wonderful mommy made us DELICIOUS Vietnamese food, sticky rice, egg rolls, this noodly soup, and fried banana desert. It was SO good and Im really learning to love the flavors cause her mom brings food to us a lot at school. We were so stuffed that the one meal covered all three meals for the whole day. Her parents took such good care of us and it was just fun to talk to them and see their life and Stella showed us around the neighborhood too. She lives in the Suburbs of San Jose which is kinda in like rolling green hills and its really preety. It feels less like a city and is just really nice. We played on a playground and than watched Little Miss Sunshine which is soooooo freaking cute. I think I love it because their family is more dysfunctional then mine, and in the end really happy. Who says perfect and put together is the only way to be happy, no way ;). Its like Juno I just laugh the entire time cause its so quirky and hillarious. I love it.

Then Lauren's friend Jerry called and asked if we wanted to go to a club in San Fran so we got all ready and went and it was way fun. I feel like if i live half hour from San Francisco that is an experience I need to have and not just once. We just danced all night and had a blast and it was perfect to have Jerry with us to be on creeper patrol :) It was a blast. We got back at 4 in the morning and were crazy tired outta control silly on the ride home and in Dennys having breakfast at 3 am. Thats what college is about, random, silly, adventurous fun. :)

I'm feeling back in the swing of things here, like I know how to do homework and be motivated to work out and sleep normal and have fun all at the same time again. I guess my brain made it back from the beach :). And last night was a perfect start of a fun and adventurous Spring quarter, which is again already flying by. Its insane.

I ordered a new computer and luckily my dad was sooo nice and helpful and helped me pay for it but still spending his money again just made me wanna puke. Life costs WAY too much. And im trying really hard to just think of it as a fact of life cause it is, I need a computer, and I will re earn the money and help pay him back but ugh its just gross to spend that much money in one place. And a REALLY good reminder about saving money. Jeezo. I'm looking forward to having my computer again even though not having one has probably been good for me.

I'm writing a paper about the culture of Santa Clara and how it has affected my identity, ey yi yi, so many thoughts. Good thoughtful interesting thoughts though. I like this kinda stuff even though its hard to motivate to write any paper. But almost done :) Hopefully the rain wont stay forever. Its kinda fun here and there (especially with my YELLOW RAIN BOOTS :)) But too much just gets real old, I want some sunshine!
