Family

I had a hard time falling asleep last night so I listened to music..I woke up around 4am to watch the Stars' game. I fell asleep while waiting for the stuff to load. When I woke up, there was only about a minute left in the fourth, the game was tied at 57 a piece. I waited for the video to load, but it was a bit choppy, so I had to settle switching between the video and the game scoreboard just to see the update (the scoreboard updates first anyway). Stars won...of course I was happy. Went back to sleep for about an hour, waited for my alarm to go off again to get up for my doctor's appointment. I was so sleepy, I ended up getting out of bed around 6:45 (I alarmed at 6:00...hehe)...I brushed my teeth and changed.

I grabbed a Goldilock's mamon for breakfast. I was about to eat it when I saw a black spot, I asked mom what that was and she said it was a mold, so I threw the mamon...I was disgruntled because I was hungry. I was sleepy too so I was extra irritable. I just slept while waiting for the doctor. Mom bought food from the convenience store outside the hospital, but I didn't eat it until later because I was busy sleeping. The doctor was late and I was third on the list. The check-up was fine. I'll see her again in three months.

Went home. Took a bath. Did my usual accounting routine for the store (inventory and cash). Was getting hungry, ma hadn't called yet so I decided to go to her house. She was watching President Cory's burial, I watched a bit then we ate. I received a text from Isabela telling me she was going to Shang. I was going there too, with Cha, to buy the exercise machine we saved up for in Toby's. Told Isabela I'd meet her.

Cha and I left. Went to Toby's. We kinda got on each other's nerves, I wasn't in a good mood...she said something, I answered back, she got pissed. We bought the exercise machine, I asked for a discount since it was the display, there wasn't any new stock. Called ma to ask if we could get the car to fetch the machine. Cha went home. I stayed and met up with Isabela.

Had a nice time. It was a very welcome break from all the stuff at home. We talked a bit about what was going on.

It's funny because for some reason, I always end up accompanying Isabela when she goes shopping. I'm not exactly the best person to go clothes shopping with...hehe...I'm better at CD, DVD, books, sports stuff. I spent some time with her family. Met her little nephew from Australia. Got to be around the family. Witnessed their interaction. It was nice. Her mom told me to come over their house sometime.

Before heading home, I decided to drop by church. Appreciated the peace and silence. Was able to talk to Him decently. Walking home, I got a bit sentimental. I was thinking about Isabela and her family...it was nice seeing them...I wondered once again what it's like having a complete family and growing up in one.

Well, that's mainly why I blogged...I just wanted to note that feeling...and I'm happy I was able to spend time with Isabela. I miss hanging with my nerdy friends...haha...I'm glad she texted me and told me she was going to Shang.

Speaking of text messages, last Sunday Ai texted to check up on me...she knew I wasn't doing well so she asked how I was. I appreciated the thought and concern. I've been longing to talk to them, to just spend some time with them.

Later.

Belated Greeting Worth Posting

Here's something that gave me a reason to smile today: Bry sent me a belated birthday e-card.

I thought he forgot and I felt pretty sad when I didn't receive any greeting from him during my birthday. My birthday seemed a tad incomplete. But he made up for it with perfect timing....With the way things are going here at home, I've been in a pretty rotten state....Bry's e-card cheered me up though. Thanks Bry. Talk to you soon.
