good ghandi!

GOSHNESS. GUESS WHAT YOU GUUUUUUYYYYYSSSSSSS!!!!

today, which is the day that is now which is before us today. YES! TOOooOo-dayyy!

So. It is on this very day that I, Chai Yi Wen.. went and ate me a...... BEEEEEFFF BUURRRGGERRR!

yup. after over a decade of beef fasting i'd finally gone and took the plunge. i hath taken the life of a cow.

:(

so we went over to carl's today.. wei's been talking about it for days and i DID say i'd try my first beef there (yeah, what the heck right?) . ordered myself a huge ass portebello mushroom beef burger. the guy taking my order recommended it and it's not like i know any better so yeah. the experience was quite odd really. didn't know beef tasted so minced.. kinda like grinded meat bits. though i imagined it a whole lot differently really. i thought it'll be this juicy slab of thick-ish meat you'd have to chew your way through. (or is that steak??) oh well. personally, i'd take a chicken burger any day. wei says it's not as good as the one in spore so guess i'll just hold off any burger judgments till i've tasted more of em. hehe. :)

okay, nuff talk. picture time yo.



lmao, char looks constipated.



liar liar.



le burger.




nyeehh.. guess it was just so-so..



zu likes it though. like em yummy in the tummy. :D

so yeh, this just a quick fill-you-in. promise i'll update a long and proper one soon ok? right after my finals. finals is in 9 days. geez. so see y'all after?

ooh wait, before i go..




i've been simpson-ized ! ha-ha !



Break out on my own

Lauren and Jonah just moved into a new apartment and it's gorgeous! I've been over there ALOT and we had a little house warming thing yesterday night. hahah Of course, grocery shopping was last on their list so we were diggin on ice cream cake and drinking water. Somehow we ended up re-enacting Laur's cheerleading days LMAO. Guess who the flyer was? :P And I flew high too. Jimmy and Brandon threw me like there was sky above us, not ceiling. Anyways, it was fun, playing games, dancing, just.. hanging out. Jonah brought his new boy and we love him, he's gorgeous and fun. And caught me when I fell ;)
So, stay tuned for more. Some family time is due then maybe a white trash themed party on Thusday. Guess we'll see, huh? I've planned out my next semester's schedule, pretty excited about it. Comparative Religion, Abnormal Psychology, Human Sexuality, World Literature, and ughh College Algebra. Wish me luck!

Holaaa! So we're back where we started.. Vermont. I'll be here til the 12th because I can't leave work for long but the rest of the family will he here for the rest of the month. We spent a couple days boating by Rhode Island with some family friends then made the 5 hr drive to Vermont in this monstrous minivan we've named The Eggplantmobile mostly because of its colour and overall ick-appeal. It should really be put down.. by the end of my stay I'm thinking I'll drive it into a tree :)


Anyways, pics. That's what you wanted right, Gene? ;p


These are a few pics on the boat and on Rhode Island, haven't taken any of Vermont yet since we just got in at midnight yesterday. All pictures were taken with my failing Motorola Razr. You've served me well, my friend, you may begin you're slow but sure descent into oblivion or wherever it is phones go when they die.

"Old phones don't die.. they just ring away"



lol the black bar is must.. minor bikini mishap




Aqil! Hahaha hv I mention baby brother has done a total 180 on his style? Meet the new 'Ghetto' Aqil. I'm talking tall tees, chains, doo-rag, cap, and pants-down-to-THERE. No joke. I really have to put a pic of that up sometime soon.






Okay, so.. truth? I ended up dating Barth[olomew] again but he didn't change so it didn't last haha. I know what you're thinking, I'm flaky when it comes to guys. Well, I'm thinking that too. What can I say, except, I seem to attract jerks. They're nice at first but sooner rather than later their real nature comes out. I'm sure they're great guys.. just not great to date. Robert's wondering how the hell I pick these guys hahah.. Okay, so maybe these Plano guys are too caught up in the partying and hooking up scene. And that's definitely not for me. And so, my lovelies, I mourn the death of chivalry.. I miss you all. I miss the values too ;) So lets all cross our fingers and wish for the resuscitation of chivalry, alright?


I'm transferring out of Collin County in the Spring so I'm thinking I'll apply to U of Texas, Texas State, USC, and a couple other schools out in Cali. I know there's no way I can stay in Plano for another full year. Don't get me wrong, it's fun, crazy fun.. but school-wise, life-wise.. I gotta embrace reality. And Quad C, I'm starting to realize more and more, is a waystation, NOT my final destination.
