Yay~! Today was interesting, full of ups and downs, but overall it went very well. It started off a little weird cuz I was hoping to sleep in and then wake up to clean house and then jet out to hang with friends, but I kept waking up and I couldn't stay asleep, which ticked me off. I finally woke up around 10:30ish after tossing around. So I began my tidy up process and getting things in order when I found out that I should have planned to go get my Food Handler's Card today b/c their sessions are only on monday. So my mom made me go get it even though I wanted to postpone it to a later date, and we were off around 11:25 for the 12 session. The webpage said to be 20 min early and our timing seemed good, but to my dismay, when I got there at about 11:45, they were full already >_< Just my luck... and my mom had already driven off. (To get the card you need to sit through a class and take a test, about 90 min total) So, there I am stuck in downtown Seattle at lunch time waiting for the next session at 2:30pm... Isn't this great... I decided to bite the bullet and just walk to chinatown since I had the time and there wasn't going to be any other decent food for a cheap price around me. I walked a couple blocks (actually only took about 15-20min) and eventually settled at Uwajimaya. (Luckily none of the multiple hobo's or bar bums I passed, gave me any trouble since it was probably too early to cause trouble... thank god) There I perused the bookstore for about an hour before finally deciding that I was hungry enough to order something at Green Village. After eating, about 1:30 now, I walked back b/c I knew I had to get there early as hell this time to ensure a spot. When I got there, there was already a line of about 20 people in front of me... and this was about 1:45 for the 2:30 class... 60 people per class so I was good. The class was boring as hell, passed the test and I was on my way. I also discovered that pay phones are there for you to feed your change to... I call people and I don't even talk, and the stupid phone takes my change!!! When the hell are phones supposed to do that?? Gosh, I lost a whole $1.50 trying to call people...

So now all of you reading must think this day sucked ass from then on... However, it was quite the opposite. Even though as I got home, paranoid, stressed, and worried to death that later that night I wouldnt' be able to pull off a decent get together for my friends, somehow, someway, it worked out... That's what makes life so great. When you're feeling the odds are against you, somehow you manage to get through. (With a little help from your friends ;D) For guys night out, we went to Applebees since the Keg was too overpriced for whatever they serve... And I liked it, although I wish I could chew my food better next time u_u;; (oh yes, random update on my wisdom teeth progress... Yea the pain is still here, but at least I can chew food I normally like to eat; jaw still hurts a little; swollen-ness has gone down quite a bit actually; hope to be back to normal in a week or so) Afterwards we headed back to my house for cake and just hanging out. We played a game of Risk and believe it or not, I didn't get wiped out this time by eveyrone else!!! (if you know what i'm talking about fine, if you don't that's ok, it's a type of inside joke) Then played some Capcom VS SNK 2, haven't played that for a while, ever since school, lol. Then had cake and played some baseball on Xbox. Good quality time with better friends for the best occasion =D
