DC/Interact (plus Brian who's a key clubber but might as well join Interact) ski trip was off the hook. thanks TERICA for planning this AWESOME weekend.

friday i was literally bouncing off the walls. excessive hyperness, and i have no idea why. so we left the doubletree aruond 5ish, with tina as my car buddy. we're destined to be travelling buddies, ever since ryla. PEDRO! we stopped in manteca (or was it oakdale?) for dinner. bjay called me a fatass just cuz i tipped the booth when i sat down. he doesn't know what he's saying, it was a crappy, cheap-ass booth. then we went gallavanting around the humungous dollar tree store

after that we went down this two lane road that was SO creepy looking. abandoned sheds, bare trees, scary looking fences......all very resemblant of the texas chainsaw massacre.

when we got to larry's cabin, we went on a night hike. brian's usually soothing voice was frigging SCARY in the dark. "does everyone see that little girl?" there was a point where we ran like crazy......just like the movies. if we brought a camera it could've became another blair witch project.

that night we played mafia and a rather revealing game of psychiatrist.

next day we headed to the slopes. the drive there was really nice. i felt really content just sitting in eric's car listening to goo goo dolls and looking at the view. i usually fill silence by talking cuz i dont like things all weird and quiet. but that drive was just really calm and soothing. i need to marry a goo goo doll or something. they rock.

everyone went snowboarding except me and eric. GO SKIIERS! i spent like 20 minutes stuck on the hill with eric trying to put my skis on when they fell off. but after that i had good runs. i'm a freaking speed demon. according to brian and jing, "you go really fast but at least you look good doing it." at first the only way i could slow myself down was by falling. brian: "you looked really good......until you fell." but i got the hang of it eventually and that made me happy =D. downside of the day: tae got injured (poor guy), and i threw up over the edge of the second story balcony. in my defense, the puke came out in a graceful arch. HAHA.

after that everyone went discing except eric, brian, me, and anita. my bladder was being stretched beyond its limits so i was forced to pee behind a bush. that was the effing hardest thing i've ever had to do. shiieeet, my legs were heck of sore. the whole time i remember thinking, "i hope i'm not mooning anyone." ah, i wish i was a guy then......it would've made things easier. anita and i went discing down the hill once (heck of fun stuff), and returned to eric's car to find the windows all fogged up and eric and brian reclined in their seats. hmmmm...what does that tell you. hahahaha.

after we got back to the cabin, brian and i stayed in eric's car and talked......why does that always happen? haha....well, what can i say, he's a good friend to talk to. i realized that i didnt' have my hat cuz some effing mofo at dodge ridge stole it. that night after brian, eric, and tae left, everyone was dead and we ended up sleeping fairly early.

next day when we left the cabin i realized i didn't know where my eye glasses were. so everyone had to turn around and go back. (sorry guys!). we couldn't get in the gate so rahul and i ran in. i thought i was gonna die since i never run, but it actually felt really refreshing. we ended up being picked up by nick halfway. i couldn't find my glasses in the cabin, they weren't in my backpack, and when i got home i discovered them at the bottom of my duffel bag. go figure.

on the ride home anita and i went a little insane and started laughing at everything. back in fremont, jp and i were waiting for her mom to pick us up in front of starbucks. i think we looked like runaway, homeless girls cuz i was lying on my trashbag (with my sleeping bag and pillow inside) and jp was lying on a st.vincent's (thrift store) bag. HAHA.

i'm not too sore, but my tailbone kinda hurts cuz when i fell my ski made contact with my butt......with a lot of force.

i acquired two new words/phrases:
SHIIEET (after skiing with eric for the morning i picked up on his language. ah....someone needs to stop me.)
COUNT IT! (ah, rahul and soo-young make me laugh)

i had such a great time laughing, talking, and bonding with all ya guys. i must continue stealing jp's pictures....
