we met up at serremonte and she had it done at plumb gold in the middle of the mall. the lady had two more girls to pierce before it was cyn's turn, and as cyn watched, i saw some fear strike in her eyes. she got her first piece when she was only 3 years old, and doesn't remember the pain. (who would at 3?) but she got on the seat bravely and was ready.
the woman was really nice, and she was quick! i guess it shouldn't take that long... hehe. my dad did my first ear pierce when i was in elementary school. yup, my dad did it. he owns a medical supply store, so one day, he brought home an ear piercing kit and pierced me, my mom, my aunt, and two of my cousins. i got my second set of piercings at tanforan where they put the wrong earring in my ear, took it out, and punched it again. *ouch* then i got my third set at plum gold in serremonte, the same place as yesterday. unfortunately the third hole on my right ear closed up, but i didn't feel like redoing it yesterday.
after cyn and her friend karen left, i went walking around serremonte and shopped for the bridal shower in a couple of weeks. i went to bath and body and bought sets of lotions and lip gloss as game gifts. the woman there helped me wrap it up all nice and pretty too, so i'm happy. i still need to pick up some cellophane, ribbon, and tags to wrap the favors in too... i'll do that next week.
tired and hungry, i went back to parkin's house and he was heading out to the gym with his brother. i made some pasta, poured a cup of juice, turned on the tv and watched monday night's road rules that parkin recorded for me. i'm sad cuz they voted to vote sarah off. i was starting to really like her on the show. i think it sucks that mtv made the show like survivor, telling the players to either vote to keep their prizes or vote another player off? worse than survivor i think. mean, mean, mean.
after watching that, then 70's show, i got ready for american idol. i wasn't much of a fan of the show until recently. i hope that justin gets kicked off tonight, i dreamt that he did! kelly is just awesome, and nikki has a good alternative chick thing going on, but i am pretty sure tamyra will win. kelly is my favorite tho. she's so adorable and petite but with such a powerful voice! it's amazing.
after watching american idol, i read for a bit then shut the lights and went to sleep. i'm still reading the xanth novels by piers anthony and i'm on 'isle of view' (i love you too, haha, get it? isle of view, say it out loud) which is book 13 maybe? i forget. i have a couple more to go in this series. i get so addicted when reading and usually force myself to finish a chapter before sleeping, but my eyes were so tired. plus i was reading the same line over and over again that i decided to call it quits halfway thru the chapter. i vaguely remember jung coming home. i dont' know what time, but i heard the slamming of doors a few too many times, then konked back to sleep. i woke up a few time this morning with the sheets all on jung's side! hey! you would think that with a KING size comforter, he could share the warmth! hehe.
not much planned for today. get off work, pick up dana and drive her to her friend herman's house to pick up a car. he's giving her a bmw. what a nice friend. i'm sure it's not new or anything, but still, giving it to her. damn, what a nice friend. afterwards, we'll have dinner then i'll head to my millbrae home and hang out with the parents and do a couple loads of laundry. :)
a quick update: my daddy is doing a lot better, thanks for everyone's care and concern. it means a lot to me!
also, i've seen james only one more time since 'the incident' he just stared at me from afar, i turned away and went into the house. what a freak.
hope everyone has a good day!
happy birfday cyn!
