dec 2009- jan 2010

yay!!!!!! this was the first break i had where i didn't really have to worry about school....(at the end of the winter break i did work on my non-thesis project...but i was able to take my time)..

christmas day

it was a busy one....spent christmas morning with chi's family...chi's younger brother made gourmet hamburgers....they were good...and we opened gifts....

then...we headed to my house..there was soooooo much food...we weren't even hungry...but of course we had to eat again :) pretty much the whole day was spent eating




jan 2010

NYE - stayed low key...didn't feel like being out and about with the rest of the world....

jan 18-20 - VEGAS with NURSING GALS

despite all the rain....the back row asians went to vegas...it was a really fun trip...

highlights - 1st night - gift exchange and XS
2nd night - chippendales for kat's birthday
3rd day - before heading home....we did a little gambling at the new hotel ARIA...it was a beautiful hotel...since we're unemployed we went to the 5 cent slot machines...i sat down...and pulled the lever 5 times and won $165!...right away i cashed out...haha! so that was a very short gambling adventure...we finally decided to drive back home....and got stuck in victorville due to road conditions....but made it home in 6 hours

we made a pact that we'd have an annual nursing friends trip once a year...and since we had a penthouse...we promised to not downgrade since we should be working nurses the next time we go on a trip ;)







my 28th birthday - chi took me to flemmings in newport...it was our first steak house...man...we felt out of place....good thing we dressed a little nicer than we normally do...we ordered raymo's favorite lobster tempura and bone-in rib eye...it was awesome!...oh man...i'm salivating just thinking of that night...haha!

NOW.......

it's the start of my last semester in grad school....

and i'm already feeling overwhelmed....

the asians are trying to meet at least once a week to do hw together to cherish every moment....

i'm already starting to miss them....but i know that i made sisters for life :)

a little look at the past....
