Memorial Weekend Festivities.

Friday:
After work, I went to Chinese Community Center to watch Ivan and Joann play ping-pong. I had no intention of playing, but once Ivan's Dad had arrived, I became Joann's opponent. I had left my converse shoes in my trunk from the week before so I was in my work clothes while wearing my pink and white flowers converses. Played until 8 and Joann and I went to church to prepare decorations for VBS. I was exhausted, hungry, and grumpy, moreso, grumpy because I was exhausted and hungry. But it was productive.

Saturday:
I woke up late so I didn't make it in time for Body Works Plus Abs at LA Fitness. But I went to the gym anyway. Met up with Jennifer, made some dinner plans, and said goodbyes. I ran for a bit and went home to take a shower. Elaine calls and asks if I want to run some errands with her, but I had made plans to watch Iron Man with Michael. So, I asked if she wanted to come along. Unfortunately, Michael is sick. It ended up just being Elaine and I watching the movie that we've both have already seen which I think is kind of funny. Iron Man is still good the second time around. Afterwards, we went to Cheesecake Factory because Elaine was craving the Santa Fe salad. Then Joann met us up to eat our cheesecake and to go with us to order VBS t-shirts. After we talked to the store owner about the details for our t-shirt design, we went to swirll because I hadn't seen the self-serve machines. Met Elizabeth's brother and politely greeted the store owner, Ken. Then I went back to Sugar Land to eat dinner with Jen and Howie at Ichiban. It was okay. Not as good as I thought it would be. Elaine invited me to hang out with her friends at Genjy's so I went. It was kind of awkward, but after two beers, I was beginning to feel more loose. We sang karaoke and drank. Then we went to KTV for more karaoke and more drinking. I think I drank too much, so Joann drove me home while Elaine followed behind.

Sunday:
Church. Enjoy Life. Everything is meaningless. VBS decorations afterwards. I was getting delusional from the lack of sleep. We agreed to go watch Narnia at 5 so we went to Starbucks for some energy and to kill time. Movie was good. PRINCE CASPIAN is mine. He is not the next Orlando Bloom. Then ate dinner at TGIF.

I really enjoyed the movie. Not only was it because of Prince Caspian himself, but I really enjoy movies that have Christian elements integrated into the plot line. Even though the references were subtle, it was done tastefully well.

I can't stop looking. I can't help but look. I wonder if it's really true that once you stop looking, love will hit you without you knowing it. I've been told that since I consciously and constantly look for love, it is less likely to happen.
