A banana dangles between my legs

So I have to say I had a very good Thanksgiving break despite the fact that I only get two days off. I spent Wednesday with my little cousins Amy and Michelle. I took them shopping and successfully bought jeans and earrings! I want to go back to my earring days that I had in eighth grade. I would have so much variety in the style of earrings I wore. I guess it was partially because I wore uniform and earrings would add something unique to the outfit. I always have the issue of how my parents don’t like me wearing large earrings cause to them it seems as if one would appear as they party a lot. I just like pretty earrings that a big and dangle-y. Minerva came by later that day. She waxed my legs and we talked a lot about Glee and little details, like how Mark messes up his dance moves in “Stop! In the Name of Love” / “Free Your Mind.” Wow, that seems like forever ago. On Thanksgiving Barbie and Jenay created “Minute to Win It” games for the family to play. The first one you had to shake ping pong balls out of a tissue box that was connected to a belt without using your hands. It was the funniest thing ever, and you know I shook it! For the second game you have a minute to move an oreo from your forehead to your mouth, once again, without using your hands. I made the family record of two! Later we had Co Thanh play and the entire time she would just groan! I died a little. The third task required teams of three to pass an apple from under our neck to the next person, and ultimately to a box at the end of the line. Let me just say I’m really glad this game was just family cause you feel a lot of boobage, haha.I wish I had photos of these games because they’re soo great but I was just living in the moment. Plus Mina was talking photos but then she ran out of memory. I also forgot that she never uploads or send photos to anyone!!! What’s the point of having a camera then? The final task had a banana tied around our waist and we had to direct an orange to cross a line. Gosh did I fail but I did get good photos from it!

For Black Friday my mom and I shopped and got some really good deals. I think out of everything we got, I’m most excited about my new underwear! There’s something about cute underwear that I like. Even though I don’t show anyone what I look like in my undies, good underwear just make me feel good. It makes me feel a little more confident when wearing them. Like I’m cute in every layer. haha, jk. That evening was sloppy seconds! I had a great time with amazing people. Swan Princess <3 I dressed up as premarital sex coming “too soon”, with my lacy shirt, broken promise ring, hooker earrings (according to my mother), and unlocked chastity belt.

My friends and I have an odd sense of humor.

Thankful

It’s been a crazy long time since my last real text blog. That’s what I was going for in the first place but now I’m heading in the opposite direction. Too much reblogging for me. I really don’t like the idea of Tumblarity, defeats the whole purpose of blogging. There should be a word count for Tumblairty. Oh, well the purpose of this text was not to be my rant on tumblr but of my long and wonderful Thanksgiving week.

The start of my break couldn’t have been better. Friday Night I watched random clips from movies and musicals with Julie, Kelli, Matt, and Ankur and later went to the Carlsbad game. Ditched that since we were just winning so by so much and nobody was really a “maniac.” Julie, the crazy Asian lady driver, gave the ladies two wins at the battle of the sexes race to Barnes and Noble and back. I was a little insane that day but when am I not? That night I saw Auntie Cuc at Starbucks with her friends while everyone had a Harry Potter identity while ordering. Who doesn’t love Potter allusions?

The next three days were relatively boring, although I did watch Rebel Without a Cause and my mom enjoyed it as well. Wednesday Amy and Michelle came over as we waited for Cau Tuan to bring our new bed for the guest room.

Thanksgiving was one of the better Thanksgivings in a while. I had a blast in Tiffany’s room with a little kids. Auntie Dung is a genius and had an Arts and Crafts table! So much fun. Glitter and visors and paper and messes. I felt like a kid again. Oh, and sour gummy worms! Yum! We also went to the park that day. 5 semi-older cousins with 5 little ones. Mina, Jenay, and I also had a ridiculous time yelling “Happy Thanksgiving” to Betty and Barbie over the phone while they were across the room. Just obnoxious. :D Later went to Di Uyen’s and watched Beyonce’s I am…Yours.

Black Friday. I’ve gone for eight years now. This year Fry’s, Wal-Mart, Denny’s, and Fashion Valley. Had some issues with a couple people but in the end everything was fine. And I did get some great deals! Oh, and my new name is Quinn according to my Starbucks order. ;]

That night was a major Nerf Gun fight. Can you say machine gun? Let’s just leave it at that.

Cheyenne and I were trying so desperately on Saturday to find a ride to Kamilah’s Debute since it was raining. All went well and I had a lovely time.

Grrrr….the worst part about the break was turning in my college apps. I just fjoaghioehgas. But, although it was so late notice, I got three people to edit my essay and I so appreciate them for that. I got to turn in my applications late Sunday night but got in trouble for it. Oh well, don’t think it will mean much. I just feel so good now. I’m done! I don’t even care if I get in anymore. I mean, it would be nice, and I do care, it’s just, so much less stress for me.

Well, I’m off to continue watching the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Which reminds me….I need new panties!
