  • Brownies, Cute Puppies, Movies Etc

    On Monday (which was two days ago) I finally got to see JW, I've been such a flake with her lately that I was starting to feel bad. She picked me up around 3PM from my place and we made the 5-10 minute drive to her place. I hadn't realize how much time had passed since I haven't visited her place, wasn't it just last year or two when we frequent her house? I caught up with her step mom for a bit and that sweet woman even gave me a hug. I love parents laughing. They even have puppies now!! For the most part, we stayed in her room catching up and talking about nothing and everything (if that makes sense), we also semi-planned her pre-birthday get together which will happen tomorrow.

     


    Bella and Bethoveen.  THEY ARE SO SWEET! That's Bella (brown) lying curled up on my stomach. Too bad these cute adorable creatures aren't exactly wanted. After coming home, I had a talk with Aso telling him how fortunate he is for being so spoiled. He just gave me his signature puppy dog eyes.

    As promised, JW baked me her infamous Pillsbury brownies.Now I know why it always taste so different. It's cause she doesn't use the exact measurements the recipe requires.

    She played the piano for me for a while whilst waiting for the brownies to cook. She said she made too many mistakes from the lack of practice, I say if I have half the skills she has I'd be happy. I don't even remember how to read music notes anymore. bummed

    Me, pretending to know how to play.After she got tired of playing, we decided to watch The Phantom of the Opera. That movie and the actors reminded me wayy too much of other movies/actor. I'm not a big fan of musical you see, I find the whole thing...cheesy. Redeeming grace of it though is that the Phantom was actually played by one of my favourite Scotsman; Gerald Butler. Now, I'm not quite sure if that was his real voice, but if it was...I don't mind getting freaky, possessive, obsessive, controlling, manipulative on me winky

    Onwards to Tuesday.

    Aso and Ate LG. I had plan to stay at home yesterday, but she texted me. I really can't afford to do anything at all (*sigh the life of a broke college student) but I remember that I had those free movie tickets and that I was going to bring her with me (the irony is that she works at a rival theater).

    Aso, being his adorable, suck-up self, was naturally attached to her the entire time. Well, she wasn't doing anything to stop him anyway. She literally wouldn't let go of my dog either. She even ask to baby sit him while we go on our family trip next week to visit father dear. It's always a pleasure having her over and conversing with her, we discussed about or estrange (ex for me ) friends, and I feel like I she understands and that I can relate to her in that regard. 

     

    We ended up going to her workplace so that it's closer from home and so that my siblings and Babsie can get in for free courtesy of Ate LG. Then we walked to Surrey's favourite Asian restaurant aka Bubble World to meet up with a few other people.

    Spicy black sesame chicken. We took our time eating until it was time for our movie.

    I WAS FINNALLY GOING TO SEE HARRY POTTER!!!!laughinglaughinglaughing I know, I know, I'm probably the last person on earth who hasn't seen it. To be fair though I am not its biggest fan. Not because I didn't/don't think it's good, but because I haven't gotten around to reading the books. I shall though! The movie was simply amazing. I literally held my breath multiple times throughout the movie.Now, if the conclusion of the movie was this great, I wonder how the books must be like. Although I probably won't read it for another few months/years, I kind of want to forget the movie so that the books wouldn't be spoiled for me.

    The night ended with taking Aso for a walk around the block after I got dropped off.

    Now on this nice, beautiful, summer, sunny day, this is basically what I have planned:
