Post #258- Sadbug

I totally did not want to wake up today. Partially because of the late night last night, but partially because I knew B was leaving today. 

I couldn't take days off to drive up with him, so I had to leave him and go to work :( I know I will be there soon too, but I'm just a big cry baby. 

Also went to see The Killers in concert tonight at UCI. My coworkers had an extra ticket luckily. As much as I love concerts and The Killers, I really just wasn't in the mood for it tonight. I tried to put on a happy face and make the most of the night though. 

By the time I got home from the concert, it was pretty late, and for some reason, the sliding door at the boys house was wide open. Since I was home alone with Bam, I got kind of scared. Called up Niko & Daniel and they came over to check things out just in case. Thank goodness for them living so close and even better than Vinh comes back home tomorrow. 

Sad sad bug. Sleeping alone feels weird.

Even though I had a great day at work, it was a tough night. I scrambled around after work with Niko to finish up B's going away gift that I slacked on over the weekend.

When I got back to the house, the packing frenzy was still going on. Niko had made some chocolate covered strawberries and brought some champagne to see him off. We took a break, toasted, and gave him his gift. Writing & reading the notes people created what Daniel called an "emotional breakdown".

Daniel helped Brian and Vinh load up everything into the U-Haul. Slowly as his room slowly started to empty out, I swear time sped up. Before I knew it, it was 3:30 am and as much as I wanted to stay up with B, my eyes were getting heavy and I knew I need to sleep since I still had work tomorrow. I hate going to sleep sad :(

Post #256- Pig in a Box

After a pretty late night last night, we kind of slept in today. B and I got lunch at one of our favorite udon spots in Irvine- Fukada. I'm probably a little biased because this is one of the few places that has mochi as an option :)

After some grocery shopping, cooking, and football, I finally convinced B to start packing. I can't believe how fast the time went. I wasn't really sad until this weekend. Partially because time is winding down, but also because I know how difficult change can be. I think most of us down here are creatures of habit, and a disruption in our social systems affects our lives more than we realize. Today I thought about how my day to day activities will change. Yes, I know I will be relocating soon as well, but still....you get so used to someone/something, that when its gone, you kind of feel lost.

It's funny because you never realize how much junk you actually have until you have to move. We started sorting through stuff, but barely made a dent!

Post #255- Happy Wedding!

B and I managed to start the day off pretty early. Well, he got up early, I didn't. :)

We went to South Coast for lunch at Lawry's Carvery and to pick up a necklace at Bloomies that I wanted. In addition to the necklace, B managed to pick up some goodies as well.


Once we got back, I immediately had to start getting ready for the boys' friend's wedding we were going to that evening. I haven't been to too many asian-style weddings, so it was pretty fun. Really good food and a lot of alcohol :) Congrats to Francis & Tiffany!

I love photobooths! So fun!

Post #254- Happy Day

*Sigh* The last Friday Funday.

Got some very exciting news today.

It's Brian's last Friday with us.

He & Daniel were "thirsty" starting at 5pm.

The result: a giddy B and a delicious dinner! 2 types of crab and an early bedtime.

**please note i skipped some days on purpose. :) To be published later. 

Post #253- Let's Do This Again

Back to SF I go. I swear it's like I am commuting from OC to SF this week. It feels weird to travel 800+ miles per day!

Another gorgeous day in SF. I love it!

...is good luck in the Chinese culture. Let's hope thats true! 

Lunch with Mom's at Taylor's Refresher at the Ferry Plaza. Love Cheeseburgers and Sweet Potato Fries! :D Back to the airport afterwards, and now I find myself back in the OC. Slightly antsy and very anxious.
