Holiday Recap - Tuesday, January 6, 2009
I spent this past Christmas down in LA hanging out with family and friends. I drove down Tuesday night, by myself unfortunately, since people I thought were going to go decided not to. But I had "The Case For Faith" by Lee Strobel on audio-CD to listen to, so the drive down wasn't too tough. The audio book was pretty engaging, so the driving part was merely secondary.
Christmas day I spent mostly with Raymond, learning how to drive stick on his Civic. Raymond- thanks for being a good sport and letting me wear down your clutch/transmission/engine/synchronizer in the name of practice!
On Friday, I finally did my second Slave Day with Priscilla (she's already done three for me). I made her buy me a dress shirt at Ross (this would come in handy the following day), play a logic game, sing praise songs, make food with me (I made turkey paella, which didn't turn out so great), and watch No Country For Old Men, which turned out to be boring, and she fell asleep.
The next day I went with Priscilla and her parents to the wedding of Nancy (a relative of Priscilla's) and Ricky. Priscilla's mom took a ridiculous number of pictures as usual, including many of me and Pris. But some of them came out really good. We actually look cute!
The weekend after New Year's, Priscilla's parents came up to the Bay Area for a friend's funeral. Priscilla had led me to believe that she wasn't coming, but she showed up and hid in my van, having borrowed a key from my parents.
That weekend we had fun making food (tacos), working out, studying, and me getting sick because of sleep debt. It's cool that we can have fun just doing the small things.
