RANDOM US MEMORIES
... triggered by the hoodness in last post's comments

Our matching GAP outfits


My digi-cam is currently out of order because somehow, on my last night in NY, the LCD screen broke. I think I mentioned that last post. Something else that almost broke my heart was that - on one of my millions of trips to the bathroom that night (Veed told me I went a lot... to pee not to throw up) - when I went to look at the pictures on my camera (a little buzzed mind you), I realised my memory card was gone! By then, it was time for us to depart. I reported the missing memory card to my cousins outside and they sent Ryan and Veed back in to look for it. I don't know HOW it happened, but they managed to find it on the floor with the help of the club's security. Lucky.

The most embarrassing that happened (it'd probably top my throwing up in Macca's Florida) was in New York after Veed and I roamed around the city for a bit. We'd met up with Mel after she finished work. It was pouring rain - this is when I bought the $5 umbrella - so we retreated to a bar on 6th Ave and 57th St. We were standing around, Mel and I had a drink in hand and Veed was holding onto Mel's sweater. Veed decided to leave us for a bit because she wanted to check out the store across the street. What she didn't realise was that she had left Mel's sweater in the bar. So Mel and I did what you'd expect of us and hid the sweater so she'd think she lost it when she gets back. When Veed came back and realised it was missing, she told the waitress. Meanwhile, Mel and I are pretending to look for it, trying to contain our laughter. Suddenly, the bar manager came up to me all worried. He was all "Are you sure you don't have it? I gave it to you when you sat down! Maybe it's in your bag" and he pointed for me to check my bag. Of course, when I opened it, it was there and I laughed about how forgetful I must have been. I was so embarrassed. What I realised after was that Mel had bolted to the bar when she saw the bar manager coming toward us - she was gonna leave me to deal with this on my own! Ass... thaaaaaaanks Mel.

I think I have a hearing deficiency because no matter how hard I try, I can't WHISPER. I don't think I could count on my two hands how many times someone would hit me because I was talking to loud. So, I'm sorry for embarrassing anyone... I'm just incapable of whispering.

RANDOM QUESTIONS
... from the US trip plus some

* Do you have sausage or bacon and egg mcmuffins from Macca's?

* Would you rather end up with someone the traditional way (meet, date, fall in love...) or would you rather end up with your best friend (think 'When Harry Met Sally', 'Love and Basketball', 'Brown Sugar')?

* (hi Jay-Z) "You can't turn a bad girl, good; but once a good girl's gone bad, she's gone forever" - true or false?

* Do you believe in destiny/fate? Or do you think that we're in total control of the final outcome of our lives?

MY DAYS...

* So I haven't left my house since coming back from Parramatta on Tuesday afternoon. Is that a bit sad? I don't know, I'm trying to make the most of this home alone doing nothing time because it's all going to go back to routine next week.

* I've been trying SO HARD to adjust my sleeping patterns. Tuesday night I managed to sleep after 10pm which I was happy about. Last night I had to sleep at 9.30pm because I couldn't take it anymore. Both sleeps resulted in me waking up at 4am ugh. This afternoon I slept for 3 hours from 5pm because it was 3am NJ time and that's what time I'd usually fall asleep. Let's hope I can fall asleep tonight yes?

* Tomorrow I'm going into the city for the first time. I think I'm meeting up with the girls for some after work catching ups. Then we'll let the night run itself. Saturday night is Mindy's 21st bash at Hotel CBD which should be fun!

Ok that's it. Bye.
