Happy Birthday...XING!!!

Hooray! I DO have more than one photo of you! =D

Well I've been back from Maine for a week now, and I still haven't gotten around to posting about it. But this is DEFINATELY more important than what I did over my vacation.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, XING!!!!!

Still miss you loads!!! :(

Hope everything's going great for you in Singapore :)

Hope to see you soon, Bulldoggie :)

Cherry Blossom Festival :)

Hi again, everyone! Sorry for the lack of updates!!! But, I have been busy (and lazy...*cough*) I leave early tomorrow morning for Maine, where I will remain until Friday. Hopefully I will have some updates for you then ;) Until I get back, enjoy!!! :)

So, yesterday we went into D.C. for the annual cherry blossom festival, which occurs the week the cherry blossoms (a gift from Japan) bloom :) I wasn't expecting to be able to go yesterday, as earlier that morning we had a huge, Brunei-like thunderstorm!!! But, even though it was a bit overcast, it was still a beautiful sight to see :)

Roosevelt Memorial!
This one was really great, because it was something you could walk around in, and touch, and read, and feel the air...I just liked this memorial :)

Fountain :)

Roosevelt and his lucky finger :-P

Roosevelt (and me) in a nutshell

I don't think he even realized I was taking this ;)

Things are really starting to look bad here in the USA...(as captioned by my dad)

Finally! The sun came out!! :)

At one point the petals started falling on them...it was beautiful (the music and the moment) :)

The Washington Monument again :)

I just thought this light was cool ;-P

Happy Birthday...KEVIN!!!

Sorry I haven't been updating lately, kinda lazy...but anyways, what better way to break the long time span than with a birthday? =D

Sorry I don't have any more recent photos, Kev...*cough cough*

Anyways...

HAPPY HAPPY 15TH BIRTHDAY!!!

Miss you like crazy!!!! :(

And Batlex and I have a surprise in store for you...BEWARE!!! ;-P

Hope you have a blast :) But then again, you got to go to Singapore so I think that's a good enough present...lucky person... ;)

(March 24)

Snow Day!! :)

Yes, I guess I'm a bit over-obsessive with all this snow biz, but it's exciting when you haven't seen it in 2 years! Seriously, I was like a little kid this winter ;-P

Anyways, here's the snow day we had...what...2, 3 weeks ago? I did say I'd post about it...O:)

So anyways, after staying up till 1 in the morning that previous night, I found out that we had a snow day today so I could have just gone to sleep!!! grrr...oh well at least I got to relax the whole day :) and this time it wasn't just a little snow, it was 4 inches!!!! So much fun :)
Our street, or at least what was left of it...=D

Snowy!!!!

Our house :)

Icicles!!!

Playing in the snow, with gloves and boots that are my mom's and so don't fit me, and only my jeans because my snowpants from 2 years ago are just too small!!! :(

Next year, I really need some legit snow stuff =.=

Run while you can!!!!

*note my completely snow-covered pants...and yes, I was completely soaking*

Chill....

Lily!!!!

Our attempt at sledding, which miserably failed as we barely have a slope in our yard :(

"I'll push you down!!"

...

The ultimate way to know when it's time to go inside is if you're sweating but you can't feel your butt at all. Then you know you've played hard and there's some hot cocoa waiting inside :)

(which there wasn't =.=)

So that was my snow day :)

Make Me Rise An Hour Early Just Like Daylight Savings Time

As the saying goes, "Fall Back, Spring Forward"

We have now entered daylight savings time.

Quite early this year actually...

But anyways, the time difference between here and Brunei is now 12 hours again!! I can't decide if that's good or bad yet...

And that's all I wanted to say :) If there any questions about daylight savings time, I'll just extend this post to answer them :)

These Crazy Weeks

Hey, guys! Sorry for not updating lately! Been quite busy...all of a sudden...

Anyways, so this week, it snowed. Snowed! Like, 4 inches!!! So we had Monday off. (and I do have photos, but I'm just too lazy to download them. But those ARE coming soon!!) :)

Then, we went in 2 hours late on Tuesday.

Wednesday, I had an unexpected audition, which I completley bombed, so failed to make it into the school play :( oh well, maybe I'll work tech for it instead :)

Also on Wednesday, I found out that I COULD go to the MUN conference this weekend, which I previously couldn't for reasons I won't bother explaining....

So, MUN was on Friday and Saturday, and it was without a doubt the best MUN conference I've been to so far!!!!! I mean, even though my partner and I weren't really prepared for debate, it was still really fun! We met lots of amazing people, and had a ridiculously fun sudden crisis debate at the end! In addition, we had a dance off, threw paper into various other committee rooms, and bought souvenir boxers!!! Yes, that's right, they were selling boxers instead of t-shirts ;-P And I must say they make incredibly comfortable shorts...=D The only thing(s) I regret about the conference is that I didn't prepare better, and that I didn't bring my camera. :( Because I could have photos to post....but still, I think we debated very well despite not being very prepared :) And our school still got a trophy in the end!!! =D

So yea, that was my week. How was yours? ;-P

Happy Birthday...CHUNG!!!!

Yay another excessively old photo!! Woop woop!! =D and I can't believe I don't have any good ones of you either!!! :(

I don't know if you even read this but oh well ;-P

Happy Birthday, Chung!!!

Hope you have a great one!! :)

Miss you loads!!! :(

Can't wait to see you at U-Penn (or whenever I get to see you again ;))
