fun times with old friends and navs people
i had a really nice day today...i had no plans except for emily's religion workshop in the morning, but then i got a sudden pho craving, and brian offered to take me since he and alan were going to costco and wanted to get pho, too. so, it was a middle school mini reunion thing, since the three of us have been at the same school since 6th grade, along with david lin and dre. it was a nice lunch, good hang out time. i never actually get to spend time with brian, so it was tres cool...and i actually talked to alan a bit, which never happens...he's really quiet! and the costco trip was successful. i got strawberries and propel water and otter pops!
so in the evening, i was thinking of going to see a movie with cin and sam, but i was in no mood to tag along with the two of them, and brian and alan were thinking of seeing something, so i thought i'd go hang out with them instead...except it's ian's b-day tomorrow, so they were all gonna go hang out with him, ad brian invited me along. i thought i'd feel really out of place 'cause it turned out to be ian, tim, scott, the vics, jin, dre, alan, brian, eileen, and me....so only one other girl, and no one i really spend a lot of time with. and we went to a chinese place where they ordered in chinese, so i was kinda pushed into the "confused white girl" role...so i kinda thought i'd feel resentful or left out, but as it turned out, i felt really taken care of. i was sitting between brian and vic chu, and they both helped me figure out what had pork in it and stuff...and help reach things i couldn't get...and just took care of me, and it was tres nice...like having brothers. it was making me realize that i'm too quick to think the worst of situations, like i expected to feel like i didn't belong, but i really just felt welcome. so yeah...it was really nice. and then we went and got tapioca and went to jin's house to play mafia and poker bs. and i got needlessly killed...i've never actually been the mafia and i always die! yes. so it was a great, if rather random night.
