thankful...

i am thankful:

...that even though my mom and her cousin got into a traumatic car accident, they are both safe and home.  no major injuries, which is really good considering what happened.

...for my friends and family who respond to my texts with prayers for my family.

...even though i’m hurting inside because i know that it can only get better.

...for my friends who’ll sit in a room with me not saying anything, not only cuz they know that i need company right now, but because they like to spend time with me too.

...to God for taking care of my family, and to my family for getting together for a “thanksgiving” worship -after- an accident.  my mom’s family really has a great support group.

...just because. 


tomorrow will be a better day.  it just has to be.

happy birthday to me!

on thursday night i got home around 10:30, tired, and ready to go to bed.  rita was just about to go to sleep too… but then she decided that if i was gonna turn 27 at midnight, then we’d better stay up for it!

so… hungry and tired, we camped out on the living room couches, called perry to bring us some food and ring in my birthday with us, and he came - with fish fillets, chicken nuggets, french fries, and apple pies.

at midnight, rita and perry somewhat sang to me =) well… sorta....

it was cool though, cuz then they decided to light a candle so i could blow it out and make my wish - and we realized the smallest candles we had in the house were tealights!  and then we didn’t really have anything to stick it in, so we put it right next to the apple pie.

and then we put ‘em next to the chicken nuggets…

and then i blew out the candle on top of the fish fillet!

and then we made a mountain of fries and lit the candle in that!

can you tell it was really late at night? =)

anyways, as ghetto as it may look, it still was a very creative way to bring in my birthday!

movin'

so… my blog has moved on to a new home page - here at http://kimi.puen.net

and it mirrors my real life, as i’ve moved (down the street!) to apartments 3 blocks away from my house.

i’m sitting here in my near empty room using internet here for what will probably be the last time, and it makes me sad.  i’ve been here for 2 years… hosted many a tuesday night here, had housewarmings, birthday parties, overnight guests (and some have turned into ‘5th roommates’ for weeks at a time as they’ve needed it), late night sessions… well, this house has sure experienced a lot.  maybe it’s just the sense of ownership you have when you live in a house, but this move makes me sad.  i doubt i’ll ever get this attached to the apartment i’ve just moved to… just like i didn’t at our last apartment (although that might’ve had something to do with our manager/neighbor and her husband/man-child =P).  but that’s another topic....

to stay on the positive memories, i just wanna say that i hope one day to own a house like this - one that’s open to everyone, a house where people come over to hang out, or just drop by to say hi.  a house where there’s a big huge backyard that kids can play in, and a tree with a hammock in it to relax after a long day’s work.  a house that has plenty of space to have lotsa guests… basically, i just want to own a place that is warm and inviting, a place that is relaxing, a place of comfort, somewhere to turn when you need a friend.  y’know… all the mushy gooshy warm touchy feely stuff that made this house so nice.  if a house so old and ghetto and spider-infested as ours could work it’s charm over us, then that gives me high hopes for any house in the future =)

at any rate, i guess i just wanna say - my apartment is always open to you.  may you feel welcome in my new place.

and that goes for this site too - welcome to my new blog - i hope you visit often, and leave comments as well.  lemme know when you’ve stopped by. 

enjoy!
