Long Xmas Break January 15, 2007 03:37:37 PM
So I guess the site was down for over a month. Lots has happened since then! Where to start...
Hmm ok, so at the very start of break, I almost died. I had a bacterial infection in my lower intestines. Campylobacter I believe was the name of the infestation. I was hospitalized for 4 days until the bug was killed. Man it was awefull, my insides were so infected that I was pooping out parts of my intestines, lots of blood! EWWW GROSS huh? Yeah I finally caved in and had Rob take me to the hospital after my last final exam and when I couldnt keep down water any more. I'm all better now though :-)
So I worked a little bit at the comic book store while home. Did all the family stuff over christmas, hung out with friends regularly, went to LBC every wednesday with don and Andrew.
The entire break didnt really get good untill the last week of it. Thats when Khine came up from c-ville. She was here all week! We did all kinds of stuff. Saw the movie, Night At the Museum, went bowling, looked at stars at Sam Lewis Park, gave Khine a driving lesson in East Prospect, changed my cars oil together, visited the River and Shanks Mare down at Long Level, went to mom's to babysit for 3 hours, drove past a Japanese house, watched Back to the Future, and more! It was fuuuuun :-)
Oh yeah, on thursday, we went to Philly for Hannah's party. That was a blast! I found decent parking, almost all my friends were there, and everything went smoothly. We played pong, had a 4-man guitar session, and just hung out. The funniest thing that happened that night was probabbly when it occured to me that my circle of friends has no shame! There were basically 2 groups of people there, the Philly crowd, and the old highschool clique. Well the mentallity between the 2 is vastly different and became obvious when this one philly girl took the microphone and said aloud, Everybody listen up, my friends here are going to sing, Build me up Buttercup! lol well not only did they not do it, the others all folded their arms in a desperate attempt to prevent their reception of the mic. lol ok, so seeing this, andrew and I take the mic and sing it nice and loud for them! all while dancing! haha, we didnt care. that was totally sweeet.
On our last day in york, we packed everything up and headed for VA. It was late friday night, and on the way down, we spontaniously decided to drive past her aunt's house, the place where she is always cooped up on breaks. When we found it, I drove past it very slowly while sticking my tounge out in discust. Khine said it felt very good driving right infront of her aunt...with a boy!
Anyways, not much sleep that night either because we had to get up early for our Wash DC trip the next day. That was pretty cool too. We went with Khine's roommate Sabai and her bf, Frank. He drove us up to Vienna, there we all took the Metro into the city. We went to a bunch of museums, walked around the capitol building, saw Georgetown university, did some shopping, ate at both a Tai and Vietnamese restaurant, and then finnished out the day at a Korean market. OH and at the market another funny thing happened. While Khine and I were at the front of the store waiting for frank and sabai, I casually kissed khine on the forehead, and this real old indian lady was walking by and looked at us right when i did it, and then as she walked past us she gave this real diry look like PDAs are the work of the devil. So then when we were walking out of the market, that old lady was behind us, so I stopped and kissed khine in a much more obvious fashion just to spite her. hehe Fun times!
So Im back at tech now. I was getting pretty used to haveing Khine around, I guess I'll just have to readjust yet again. All the computers are running now, so thats why this server is back up. Everything is unpacked and the hospital stuff was taken care of. So I guess I can just relax until class starts on Tuesday.
