Complicated Pants

On monday, my friends and i had a catch-up/going away dinner although the two people who the dinner was made for didn't end up coming. So N and Su are leaving for American today for about a month, and i am so excited for them. While i wanted so badly to be going with them, i know that one day i will have my american trip, fingers crossed for next year. The feelings of jealously are mostly gone, and i am so happy for them to be going to american and getting "cultured" =P Plus i can live vicariously through them when they come back.
So back to dinner, i wanted to try The Kitchen Workshop because i heard the desserts were amazing or at least they looked amazing. The wait to get into the place was about an hour, so we were very hungry by the time we got in. I think i ate way too much, and went crazy with the desserts. Overall i think it was pretty good, the desserts were okay, i think they all have the same texture but with different flavours and were named differently. The cake was really good though. However, i think i've had enough of buffets for a long time. But it was so good to be catching up with friends and hanging out. It has been a while since we were able to find a time to get together, even if some people weren't able to come. After dinner, we walked along the southbank path, and the fire thingys were going off outside crown. I thought it was pretty amazing because i have never been up close to them before. It is really loud and really warm, so perfect for a cold winter night. We had a really fun time walking back, we were just laughing and joking and generally being high crazy little kids, well some of us were anyways. i go the train really late, the latest i have been out and caught public transport home. It was okay, wasn't as scary as i thought it would be.
On tuesday, i spent the morning with Su to buy a camera for her holiday. I was excited, i love going camera shopping, and its a shame that i only get to do it only so often. We already had a camera in mind so we were going along elizabeth to find the best price. We ended up in JB Hi-Fi, and the sales guy was really nice. I've read some people say that their customer service is sometimes really bad, but i've always had a good experience, because the staff are generally young and easy to get along with. So we were talking to the guy and he asked us where we were going, so i said we were going to America. It was nice to pretend that i was going to America. The guy was telling us that he went to america last year, and was telling us places to visit and the things that we should do. In addition to the camera, we got the SD card and a case, and the guy gave us a final price but i managed to bargain it down for a bit more. I'm not really good with bargaining, i never know what price is appropriate to bargain down to, but overall we were able to get the camera at a really cheap price compared to the other stores. After we got the camera, we went to DFO because i needed to find a present for Y. I went through several stores trying to find something that i thought that Y would like, and  i ended up getting something i thought was very awesome and hopefully Y would like it too. Shopping with Su is really fun and it was good to have a second opinion on things. After i got the stuff, we met up with M and Y after they watched the movie. We met up in borders for a bit, and we were all getting very sad that it was closing down very soon. We thought it would be a good idea to take a photo outside borders, and Su had her new camera as well so that was convenient. I think the people who walked by thought we were stupid, but that didn't bother us, we thought it was fun and a good idea. Then we wanted to try up n go yogurt, but unfortunately there was no chocolate so M didn't get any and i didn't any either because it was special for two. however Y and Su got the vanilla one, they said that it was just like normal vanilla yogurt and wasn't worth it. But M and I got lindt chocolate bars because it was on sale. Darn Coles for having such good sales, i can't resist the cheapness of junk food. Su was watching X-Men with her friend, so we waited with her until her friend came. We were trying to spend as much time with her as possible because then we would not see her for another month. It's so weird, seeing your friends after a long time of not seeing them and having little contact, you realized how you much you miss them and the company they bring to your life. It scares me that i will lose contact with my friends, especially with uni and being away, it is getting harder to make time to spend together. And with some people nearly finishing their degrees while i still have a long way to go, that is going to put a lot more pressure on our friendships, and our catching ups and hanging out will become rare. However that is in the future, and right now i want to try to spend as much time with my friends as possible.
After Su went to watch the movie, we decided to buy some food. When we walked to the foodcourt, Y pointed out a guy that happened to be good looking. And we reacted in such an embarrassing way, Y was doing things that made us laugh very loudly, i think the guy realized we were laughing about them. Well we kept looking over in his direction, and hoping that he didn't notice. We were basically just laughing at Y, so it wasn't it really him that we were laughing at. Yeah we are so embarrassing. And I have to add that we are not really not that embarrassing normally. I had a blueberry bagel from gloria jeans and it was pretty good, so maybe i can eat that regularly, it can sort of be my daily cup of coffee except i won't be eating it everyday.

So this week started off in a really good note and i hope the rest of the holidays would be as awesome.


Love Squealer.
