8:36:00 PM
Phew. I had too much fun last weekend. "Too much" with a very positive intonation. And since Thursday night, I only had 4 to 5 hours of sleep each night.
Here's the tale. A detailed one, I must add. (Because I pay too much attention to details. Can't help it.)
Friday
Had a haircut at
Jose Eber located at South Coast Plaza, Costa Mesa. Back to my faithful hairdresser ^^ Did a little shopping afterwards. Visited Irvine (feeling reminiscent? a little bit, yes) & had the first meal of the day (i.e. dinner) there. In an effort to reach Rowland Heights from Irvine within 30 minutes (which is, if you're not familiar with the area, totally impossible, because normally it takes about 45 minutes if the road is clear -- without traffic jam), I literally flew my car past the traffic jam at freeway 5 N (which was totally crowded) & 57 N, reaching 100 mph a couple of times on the freeway, and at one time even reached 90 mph on a local road with a speed limit of 45 mph! Why risked, you ask? Because I brought an overhead projector for that evening's event and I felt bad being late. So I sped up. A little too much, I guess. After the event, we all went to Ten Ren for a round of bubble tea & hangout. As one might expect: I slept late that night.
Saturday
There was an event starting at 9 AM. Since I didn't feel like driving, Iwan picked me up (after waking me up at 8.15 ~_~). At 1 PM, Grace, Julia, and myself drove to Santa Monica, dropping by
California Roll Factory Sushi, where Faye worked, to have lunch. Marco joined us there, and then the five of us hung out together for the rest of the evening. Chilling out at Faye's apartment at Santa Monica, having coffee at
The Coffee Bean at San Vicente Blvd, strolling around
Third Street Promenade (shopping, as always), and having dinner at
Phoenix Inn, Alhambra. Since it was already 1.30 AM when we left the restaurant, I decided to stay over at Grace's & Julia's apartment, because I was dependent (I didn't bring my car). As one might expect: I and Grace were chatting (sharing, mostly) until 5.30 AM =P
Sunday
The third day of having lack of sleep. Mother's Day. Lunch. Church. Bubble tea at
Tea Station. Choir practice (without music, but we still managed). Dinner at Litz, Monterey Park. Iwan drove me back home (thank you, Wan!), since I didn't bring my car. Collapsed into bed almost instantly. And had a loooong good night's sleep :3
