running non-stop since i've been home...

it has definitely been fun being home and catching up with people, giving them pasalubong, and just being able to hang out with friends… i’ve been pretty much filling my time with friends and family

wednesday night dinner at kat & susan’s house last week,
thursday night dinner with laurie in loma linda (so cool to have a puen cousin nearby),
friday night concert at redlands bowl, followed up ice cream at my apartment and this wacky science experiment
lunch with my brother and pauline in venice beach on saturday, after which we went to the tchaikovsky fireworks at the hollywood bowl
and then i went deep sea fishing on sunday and didn’t get back till tuesday night - that’s right, 45 hours on a boat. catching tuna. but i’ll post about that later...
coming back from the boat, i dropped off my fish into the freezer, and then headed to gym night for basketball and volleyball, and of course, i had in-n-out afterwards *grin*
wednesday night dinner at my house, in which we had arroz con menestra, imitation crab ceviche, tuna ceviche (yup, from what i caught on the boat!), fried tuna, baked tuna, potato salad, pancit/noodles with big franks, watermelon, and rainbow jello, followed up by poker night =) and pusoy dos. yeah, i think i went overboard on dinner, but i’m glad everyone helped pitch in too!

the crazy thing is that up until i was on the boat, i was waking up at 7am every morning no matter what time i went to sleep, and i was feeling tired and jet lagged and couldn’t do a thing about it… then all i did on the boat was nap!!! so i think i’m on my way to recovery…

and if i have not yet seen you, i only have one more week of summer vacation - so call me up, let’s make the most of it!

and on to pictures:
(clockwise) me, kat, jay, christina, daryl (& wife, not pictured), laurie, susan, merv, & wendy were all at the redlands bowl, sitting in the back with all the rabble…
