Whooaaaa super slackage.





No idea what happened two weeks ago so I can't talk about it. Summer's going by quite quickly... Finally started driving lessons Thursday. First day, we went straight to the freeway and down to Richmond. I was surprised, shocked, freaking out, afraid -- everything... Never driven before and he wanted me to take the freeway taking the Knight Street bridge toooo... Had to work on big street turning mainly.





Friday: Tony's b-day. Strange day, imo. Fish picked me up and we went to his house. They couldn't get the sewing machine working the day before so I decided to help out. I got father than they did in a lesser amount of time that they spent but it still couldn't get working. After an hour of boring machine poking, we decided to go straight to handsewing instead. Amy already started, sewing strange lil beads and such on the thong. Oh did I mention that's our birthday present for Tony? Apparently it is. Tony came a bit later, and we continued to work. Fish went to pick up the rest of the people while Amy and I kept working. We were sewing a giant fuzzy heart at the front of the thong when Amy suggested it looked like a pocket. Then the bigger picture appeared -- MONEY POCKET! I told her to go find some monopoly money and photocopy a few. I finished the sewing and stuck the money in. OHohoho, good stuff. The other people came, we left towards Richmond and met Tony at Parker. Took sticker pictures and then got going to South Arm park. They started swimming, Tony Fish and I didn't. We played a few games of MJ and Big2, drinking pop, eating sausage-pinapple on a toothpick and chips. Then Fish finally went to join them. Time passed by quickly... it was 7 and we had to go pick up the cake all the way in Kerrisdale. The bigger half went to pick up the cake and met the others at Sushi King. Had a crazy sushi meal, had the crazy strawberry-chocolate cake and popped open the frightening present. We sang the Happy Birthday song outside of the restaurant -- both Eng and Chinese and then got going to Ray's party. Was a mess of random people. Some were playing MJ, some were karaoke-ing, some playing PS2 soccer and others sitting around, drinking and eating -- wasn't too appealing. Did I mention I don't like Brenda?... maybe's its her voice or something... its quite irritating to the ears. She was everywhere around Amy not that I'd care, but you can hear her. I took a bite out of the cake and pudding and then we got going. Thank goodness we left early.. or at least earlier...





More driving Saturday. It started raining dogs and cats outside. Worried me much much. Went to Richmond again, rain died down a bit.. did much better on the turning. Now I need to practise on my head turning... KILL ALL 'EM BIKERS. -- and parking... Did I also mention my driving test is scheduled to be August 8th?... I'm so dead you know?? YOU KNOW?? One month.. NOT EVEN. Fff...





I'm determined to finish our costume for AE. We went to check out the fabric and the prices earlier this month. Anything is better than being yourself there at the con, I swear. But we've got only a week to finish it... psh, no sweat... for people with no experience huh.





I've also been wasting all my valuable time playing PC Phantasy Star Online. Which explains my lack of updates on everything. Find me -- Sayoko the FOmarl, harharhar... lvl 26 I think. NO HACKS GO ME >:E... Can't stand being with the other cheating foos tho... using crazy weapons and/or being at lvl200 (obviously you're cheating, stupid). The majority of the characters being at lvl200. Meh. Hectic month... Did I mention I haven't gotten my monthly dose of Newtype yet?... the last time I went (with Jicky), they didn't have it yet. UGH new Fruits Basket and DNAngel.... *rolls around*
