Thanksgiving Break was wunderful.

I came home around noon on Wednesday and found my sister lying in her bed, sleeping like usual. Except I haven't seen her for the past quarter of the year, so it was special.
We baked mini apple pie and all sorts of cookies. Then after a shopping adventure, we went to Old Town Orange and explored all the antique stores and had lunch at a Cuban restaurant.
My license came in the mail!
But now it's Sunday, so this means I should start my homework because I did NADA over break.

My stomach hurts so much.. from laughing because my chinese text book is too entertaining.

Here are some real samples for sentence structures:

"That person looks evil"
"After all, the subway is not a place where you could stay forever"
"He should find a job to feed himself so he can avoid being frozen to death on the street when winter comes"
"How could I not know that drinking cannot eliminate worries? When I cannot control myself, I am addicted to alcohol"
"Are you willing to give up work for your family and stay away from society?"
"He likes to read all novels about love and romance"
"This house is full of bad fumes"
"You have to pay for the meals, because they are not free"
"You can read whatever books you want, except for pornography books"

Boy, are we in for an adventure or what.

"sweeter yet shall blow its breezes on the day that sets us free"
[top-"ash-tray"
bottom-new stack of to-reads!
but one is only a decoration]

On Brainfood, he said that you can calculate the temperature(Fahrenheit) by counting the number of cricket chirps within 14 seconds, then adding that number to 40. I experimented, but I only got 47 chirps. 47 degrees?-seems unreasonable...

After 7.5 years, we have upgraded our methods of transportation.
As a celebration, we went to Albertsons and bought fruit snacks, gingerbread mix, lotion, and Honey Bunches of Oats(for her brother)

Scooter phase, Biking phase, Walking phase, and now driving phase.
Because I got my driver's license today!

: )

Everyone seems to be formating their pictures into a "collage" type of organization. So I thought, " why not" So here it is! I actually really like it- it makes my pictures seem a bit "nicer".

-Today's Lunch: not fully toasted Garlic bread, Cherry Tomatoes, Asparagus sprinkled with Chedder
-Buttons scattered onto graphpaper
-Found a scarf in my sister's room. I've been wearing it all today.
-Cherrio snack..man

While buying tickets for the Darjeeling Limited, Michelle and I happily consumed our ice cream cones.An elderly man and his wife approached us and asked" Excuse me, but where did you get the ice cream?"
I said" My mom gave it to us"
he looked sad for a moment, then burst out laughing and said" Oh. My mom isn't here!"
Then we laughed, and skipped to the bathroom, then into the big dark movie full of viewers aged 18 or older we went.

A few nights ago, I wanted to sew something Holiday-y.
But I realized without green and red felt/cloth/or thread..there was no point.

This time change is making me so sleepy.

A few days ago, I had this huge urge to buy exotic fruits.
So I did.

The red pear tasted exactly like a green pear.
The prickley pears dont taste nearly as good as the ones picked from the preserves.
The pomegrante exploded over my face and shirt and the stains don't come out.

Perhaps i should stick to "normal" fruits.
