Hey babe! So this morning we were supposed to have a video call scheduled at 9am. And I actually set up like 7 alarms to make sure I didn’t oversleep due to coming home late last night. However, around 8am, my mom walked in asking if I could go to the warehouse with her because my dad wasn’t feeling well. Not sure what happened but my mom said he was had a really bad headache and was exhausted from work. Usually he goes in the morning to help the truck driver from LA unload the shipment so that the driver could leave. My mom was kinda in a hurry because the driver had already arrived in Hayward. So I quickly got up to shower and dashed out after texting you about the situation.

I got to the warehouse and the truck was already there. I opened up the loading dock and basically unloaded pallets one by one with a pallet jack…haven’t done this in years so I’m kinda rusty with controlling the pallet jack. It’s hard to explain but I never went in “sideways” before so I was struggling and the driver saw I was a noob so he helped me out a bit lol. Took me about an hour to unload and another 2 hours to put everything into the coolers. My mom complimented me on how I was able to fit everything neatly in line even though I haven’t done this in years…I feel like she’s just saying things like that to kinda motivate me to help out more? Not sure but just a feeling.

After clean up was over, we went to the HK cafe that our team went to after the ZBTC tournament. I ordered the same baked fish filet with white sauce over rice. I only finished half of it because I felt more tired than anything and also the sauce was super thick and heavy for an early lunch. My mom was talking most of the time during lunch about a variety of topics such as BBC coaches, Colin’s dad, my dad’s work, and also how my dad said I looked kinda sad these past few days. She was also trying to joke a bit I guess to raise my spirits up a bit even if she doesn’t know what’s wrong? I appreciated that but I’m still unsure of how to tell my parents that I’m currently failing school. My dad obviously will just turn it into a lecture because he’ll think I didn’t put in enough effort. I had already somehow told him that I would need another semester to finish school…this is getting me really depressed lately because I’m not sure what I should do. I plan to my professor and adviser this week to see if I can work something out but my chances don’t feel too high…

After lunch my mom said I can go home so I did without hesitation. I got home, stripped, and ptfo in bed. It was around 1 when I got home and I didn’t wake up until 6ish. I woke up to text you a bit until I unknowingly passed out again until dinner. I think lack of sleep is really catching up to me. Like my dad always says, “Sleep is like a credit card.” I’m currently paying back with high interest.

November 3, 2017 So my day started very late as usual.. but fuck today I had a fever so I had an excuse. I don’t know if you ever had this feeling, but it’s that feeling where your joints ache cause of the fever? But that’s how I felt when I tried to get out of bed, like just so tired and achey and feverish. It was nice to talk to you in the morning though :’) we hadn’t talked all week so it was nice to spend like 2 hours with you just catching up. Ahhh I feel like conversations like those can just last forever sometimes haha I really miss you babe. After our conversation I went back to bed till like 2 pm LOOOL But I wanted fried rice, so I went with josh to mongkok at around 3pm for lunch haha and that was good. We sat and chatted for a bit about everything in our lives and I’m trying to convince him to come visit California LOL look at the face he makes when he thinks about that tho.. SMH Then we walked around ladies market just relaxing and chilling and I bought myself a new purse hehe. Because I really wanted a new one that I could take when going out that’s a little fancier/classier. We also found this market in one of the streets of mongkok that sold veggies and fruits so josh went to go get some for dinner, and I bought a small bag of dates and holy crap I love fresh dates HAHA. I used my mandarin, and it only just hit me how rarely I actually use my mandarin around here. Like I typically try to use English as much as possible, but it was just much more convenient to use mandarin at these types of market. And I’m proud of the fact that I have perfect mandarin speaking skills ^__^ . After that, we headed back to dorms and we did our own thing for about an hour or so before we met up at crystals dorm to cook dinner LOL. By cook dinner we mean like make the most basic of foods. We fried up a box of spam, and boiled veggies, microwaved the leftover rice and that’s about it LOL. I mean.. it was good! So no complaints there. Fried spam and rice is like a perfect meal on its own HAHA I washed the dishes and cleaned up this time with John because he started doing it by himself but it seemed like a lot and he was going really slowly so I was like alright lemme help so he was using the sponge and I was rinsing it off after. LOL good teamwork skills!! After dinner we all wanted dessert so we went to Nam Shan Estate where they have like some street food set up and I got this mango sago drink thing. I don’t think I like sago.. the texture is weird but I like mango juice LOL but at this point I was feeling pretty damn sick so I was just standing there with my eyes closed for the most part. Like I wouldn’t talk much or anything and that was fine I just enjoyed being with my friends. After nam Shan, we all went back to AC1, and we found some empty tables and we sat there talking for a few hours until around 1 am. That was actually pretty nice haha. I got my energy back cause we were sitting, and I was listening to Chris talk and he’s actually pretty smart. He has a lot of views about corporate life and the structure of our capitalist society that is really interesting to hear about. Like on one hand it sounds a bit too crazy but on the other hand It makes perfect sense haha. He’s had his experience with corporate life and he hated it,which is why he’s becoming a teacher, which I can respect haha. But yeah then we all just headed back to dorms and that was that!
