this is what i'm most earnestly looking forward to for the new year. and i think ryousuke is an amazing name. not because it's the name of toma's character, but because i like the sound of it and all. honestly! if you say it out loud you'll realise it has this really nice ring to it. january 12, hehe.
the class potluck gathering clashes with dhs homecoming. okay technically it doesn't, because homecoming is from 8 am to 11 am, and the potluck thing is for dinner. but this means i will be have to rush around for that day, what with attending homecoming and then going to buy sushi ingredients and then making them with yimean. i am determined to make sure they look presentable this time round haha. the last few times they were edible and they didn't taste that bad, but everything was falling out. i blame the kitchen knives we've got, because i just can't cut anything with them since they've got this serrated edge. maybe i'll get a new knife while i'm buying stuff tomorrow.
outing with the pooks got cancelled today because boonwei isn't let out till tomorrow. i hope we'll meet up sometime soon, so i can pass them all their presents.
speaking of presents, i bought 15 presents yesterday in the span of a mere 3 hours. and yes, i am immensely proud of my gift-buying ability haha. okay, so in the end they all turned out to be very generic and similar presents (especially for the guys because i really have not much idea what else i could get for them), but at least i finished buying them all. my sister and i combined spent close to $250 yesterday, and it was frankly very good retail therapy. there's just this certain satisfaction you get from buying so much things and carrying all your purchases home. and since it technically wasn't really my money, it meant spending without the guilt afterwards, which is very good news.
and everday just feels horridly hot and humid now, and i don't know if it's because i grew too accustomed to taiwan's cool weather or if it's because it really is very warm here now. i wish it would snow here...
