HEY GUYS -

.
my sister is home frm college to celebrate
thanksgiving .. WHY?
.
we havnt fought so far, so its ok.
only that when we went out for lunch today,
i took off my jacket and she was like
.
maine: OOOHHMYGOSH! thats MY shirt !!!
me: i know ..
maine: mommy! did you see her shirt?
mom: yeah, so? it fits her what
me: OOOHMYGOSH! those are MY socks!
maine: so? i didnt bring socks home so i had to wear yours
me: ok, we're even
.
LOL. she needs to GO BACK TO COLLEGE!
.
anw, thanksgiving is tommorrow,
so we went grocery shopping.
.
we were gonna cook our own turkey, but
my dads not coming home for thanksgiving,
so nobodys gonna eat all the food.
.
we're just gonna go to my mom's best
friend's hse for thanksgiving.
.
went to fresh market ( a supermarket over here we
call it grocery store)
got pumpkin pies and scones and coffee.
.
then went to eat lunch at this thai restaurant
place.
.
oh yeah! we saw 2 singaporeans working at the
restaurant.
.
ok. so we were paying,
and then the manager person was like
.
manager person: where are you from?
mom: singapore
manager person: oh! i have 2 workers here, also from singapore
mom: really?
manager person: yeah
.
then the people came out from the kitchen
or whatever place.
one was a dishwasher, one was a server
.
dishwasher: you're from singapore?
mom: yeah
dishwasher: which part?
mom: hougang
server: oh! hougang!
mom: where are you guys from?
dishwasher: im from bedok south
server: toa payoh
.
then my mom had to go to the bathroom,
so she was like
.
mom: rachael! germaine! go talk to him! hes from toa payoh !!!!!
me and maine: HUH?
.
then me and maine just like
sat there, waiting for him to clear our plates.
we didnt know what to say.
.
then my mom came back
.
server: how long have you been here?
mom: we were here like 12 years ago, in like 1980... something.
she was born here.
server: (looking at me.) ABC!
me: uhhh .. yeah ...
server: no, ABS!
me: ..... huh?
maine: american born singaporean
me: oh .... yeah
mom: ya. she has to choose if she wants to be a singaporean or american when shes 18.
server: be a SINGAPOREAN!
me: uhh. ok ..
server: i love singapore
me & maine & joel: ME TOO!
.
LOL! he was soo weird!
looked like a gay hairstylist.
he had like a kinda sorta mowhawg.
or whatever, dont know how to spell it.
.
and it was like curly,
and he dyed it gold! EEEEWWWW!
and he used like wayyyy too much hair gel.
or mousse.
or wax.
or whatever guys use to make their hair hard
and shiny and fake looking.
.
i hate it when guys/girls dye their hair gold.
or pink or blue or green or something totally un-natural.
esp guys!
.
or when like people with black hair
dye their hair blonde, and they have black eyebrows.
.
its soo weird!
highlights are not that bad, but if they dye their
whole head, its superduper fake and ugly.
.
LOL.
.
ok. and then after that,
we went to costco - its like a frozen food/ wine / makeup /
food / everything store. but you have to like
pay to be a member to shop there.
weird yeah?
.
yeah. so we went there to buy
A HUGE ALL AMERICAN CHOCOLATE CAKE
i think thats what its called.
.
and a HUGE APPLE CRISP PIE
and then we bought wine.
.
theres like this HUGE wine cellar place,
and my mom and sister were talking about
what wine is good, and what wine is not good,
and me and my brother are like HUH?
.
theres like all these diff kinds of wine.
like chardonnay and yellow tail and baileys
and reg-something.
.
LOL.
so in the end, my sister picked chardonnay,
and my mom picked chateau des michelle.
.
i dont even know what the difference is.
i thought all white wines were all the same.
chateau des michelle is french,
its michelle's castle.
.
why would they name
a wine michelle's castle?
maybe it was made there or something -
.
they were like argueing on which one to buy.
then i saw this like pinkish color wine.
its supposed to be roast wine or something.
.
then on the back, it said strawberry infused with hazelnut
and like 500 other things.
.
so then i took it to them and im like.
.
me: i think we should buy this
maine: what is that?
me: idk. it has strawberry !!
maine: you dont even know what you're talking about,
go away lah!
.
LOL.
so in the end, we got chardonnay white wine
.
my sister was like teaching me how to buy wines,
im like." im not even old enough"
.
LOLOLOL.
.
anw, my WHOLE body is aching from training yesterday!
its was raining like SUPER hard,
and it was SUPER cold outside,
.
and they were gonna make us run outside!
OMG! it was like gonna snow!
.
but then all of us started complaining and we refused to run,
so they let us choose if we want to do
strength and core training,
or run.
.
all of us picked strength and core.
so we went in the cafeteria and did all these stupid
things to like strengthen your legs.
.
we did daily drills,
then that stupid sprint coach.
thats like super mean made us do
like 9863457894309756238974
jumping squats, pushups, jumping lunges,
ab planks,
.
and like those things where
you go down, do a pushup,
jump up, then jump down again, kick your legs back,
jump up.
.
and every time somebody doesnt do it
or like rests,
he makes us do another 10 more
.
it was like bootcamp!
.
OMG! my legs were hurting soo bad!
i was like
"i'd rather be outside running a million laps
than doing this!"
.
so now i can like barely walk,
and my ribs hurt SOOOsosososo
bad from doing all those pushups.
.
my butt hurts too.
idk why.
.
luckily we have thanksgiving break,
so we dont have practice for the next 3 days!
.
if not,
my legs will die!
.
the weather today is soo superduper bad.
its like 2 degrees outside,
and its been raining all day.
.
anyways, im gonna go sleep.
LOL. its only 6.50.
.
well, HAPPY THANKSGIVING :)
