I can't even bring to words how amazing my past weekend has been. Let me just recap you on everything:
Friday
- Lab was so boring and so frustrating. I didn't take my physics quiz, thankfully, which means I have to take the rest of them. Oh well.
- Met up with Annabelle and shuttled it to her place, waited for her to quickly finish getting ready, then went to my place so that I could quickly get ready, then left. Bought some pineapple/cranberry juice at Vons and a few drinks at 7-Eleven and then headed over to Mira Mesa's Holiday Inn Express to meet up with Ej and Ken.
- Dealt with annoying traffic but finally arrived at Downtown for the usual: Sushi Deli! Met up with Mahvy and Weggie and had a good time waiting! It was chill. Annabelle has pictures of us... I especially love our Marvin picture. :D7 <--the "7" is supposed to be Marvin's thumb/index finger bwahaha.
- Walked around Gas Lamp for a bit... finally found Urban Outfitters & Ghiradellis. Ended up having to rush back to our car because our validation was about to expire and as we exited the Horton parking structure found Kyle, Ryan, and Marty! Drove over to some $10 parking lot and headed over to Sé's hotel where they were staying.
- Mahvy and Reggie ended up stopping by the hotel. Too bad Marty and I aren't 21+. All we wanted to do was lounge at the freaking pool, too. Meow.
Saturday
- Odd how we didn't get into the lounge upstairs but had no trouble getting into the one downstairs! All of us (Marty, Eric, Kyle, Ryan [birthday boy], Allan, Annabelle) just chilled outside and I honestly had one of the best nights ever! The music was freaking loud. Random ass people at Downtown, I swear! I was given one of the ugliest flowers in the world by some random dude, hahaha. It was also freaking convenient how 7-Eleven was right next to the hotel. Midnight hot dogs/chicken wings for the win? I think so! The lounge was also freaking fun! Annabelle got a new nickname and we all enjoyed watching her earn that title, HAHAHA! Kyle fell down the stairs (too bad we all missed it). The unisex bathroom there is one of the sickest bathrooms I have ever seen! Every hotel needs one just like it.
- Finally felt the need to crash so we all moved up to the room. Kyle had an epic moment and was back on his feet in no time. Marty, Annabelle, Eric and I shared one bed. Wowow. The birthday boy was the first one to knock out.
- Annabelle and I woke up around 5:50am and left downtown around 6! Thanks Marty and Kyle for walking us back to the car! The fog was effing dense, I'm glad we made it back safe.
- Showered/got ready for volleyball in twenty minutes and left the house around 7am.
- Put $10 worth of gas in my car, picked up a sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit from McDonalds, and drove to Alliant Int'l University for the tourny. I ended up having to drive back to some gas station to pull out $5 in cash 'cause no one warned me about the parking fee. Gay.
- TOURNAMENT WAS SOOOOO AWESOME!!!! Totally owned our first match against Phoenix! We had a four-game break so I just chilled while watching other teams play. Hung out with my parents as well. We split our match against Montclair :( Stupid time limit... we would have owned. We had to play Long Beach first during playoffs and won! We then played LA during semifinals and won again! It was Las Vegas vs. NSD for the finals. We lost our first game (augh) and then beat them our second and third games! IT WAS SOOOOOO INTENSE!!! We had such nice serving runs and kills, digs and covers, oh my goodness. I love NSD. I LOVE OUR CROWD!!! EVERYONE WAS SCREAMING! It has to be one of the best feelings in the world. LA never has a crowd like that!!! Whenever we'd get aces or kills everyone was freaking bawling with effing joy! I'm so glad we won. My first victory and it was with a team of great, wonderful girls! I love NSD. I know I'm being repetitive but I honestly do.<3
- After the tourny/awarding, I had dinner with my family at the ever-so-popular Panda Express, hahaha...
- Went home, took a shower. Natasha & Annie slept over! It was chill. I was just so freaking tired, running on 2 hours of sleep. Annie and Keilyn were having a play date. It was so cute watching them munch on Special K from the same bowl while watching Toy Story 2, haha! Annabelle came over and we decided to get drinks at Tap Ex. It was random seeing him and his friend Nathan there! Of all places, La Jolla!? Haha. As I was hugging Nathan goodbye, I knocked over his hand and his drink spills! How slick, right!? I was so embarrassed. Thankfully, the cute worker from Tap Ex makes him another drink for free. Oh my wow. So much for a nice first impression, hahaha. Annabelle and I chilled outside Tap Ex for a bit, then headed back to my place, and chilled outside for a bit with Natasha. Annabelle left a while later and I went to sleep not too long after. I was exhausted.
Sunday
- I was so sleepy this morning during worship service. There were a bunch of brothers from Las Vegas there, but I didn't say hi to any of them because I was too focused on the cheese balls from Valerios the locale bought dedicated to our victory! I swear, our locale is soooo nice! Ka Joven made this big announcement after all the circulars were read! I saw Melinda smiling, and I'm pretty sure I wasn't looking coy at all when everyone started clapping for Womens A, hahaha.
- Choir practice was quick! When Ate El realized no one was at the organ, Ka Shirley was like "Want me to play???" hahahaha. General meeting was funny! The wedding announcements were hilarious. Haha, I love this locale, geez!!!
- Killed $30 for my secret buddy gift since I missed two months of it. Oh well, now I'm caught up. I'm MAC Assistant Chair next year! Woo! Gino, Annabelle, Richard and I were making bets to see how long our caucus was gonna be. Annabelle won, hahaha.
- Finally home. :) Time to study for my midterm tomorrow.
