sorry sorry

so two days ago I woke up really early cause we had to go to church early at st. patricks. we came kinda late so no seats. mass ended we went to the side of the church to watch van nghe perform their drumming. maybe its just me but when i used to drum it sounded alot louder than that. idk. it was alright. it was something new. I saw three people in turtle costumes which is new, they were doing modern dancing. A black dude in a business hat came to me and asked me some questions about the culture and I explained to him. he was walking down town and heard drumming and wanted to check out what was happening ya know. he told me san jose used to be very ghetto. down town was a mess and there was no business and lots of the windows were shattered. he then said that thanks to the vietnamese community they rebuilt this town. idk. it was kinda hard to picture it but i confirmed it with my dad later that day. i went home with mom and dad and waited till it was time to head to grams. we went up there when peter came home. we ate played black jack, lotto. I lost like 30-40 dollars. saddd :( oh well it was for the new year spirit so its all good. the adults then busted out their asian chinese cards and played till like four. i hear like they played till their eyes started closing while they were playing. crazy old people. i slept on the couch and woke up at like 10. we ate then went to grand century mall to see some firecrackers. came got some sugar cane drinks and we found tiffany and andrew and their family. i took one of my cousins and boy she was obessessed with the toys. which was like me when I was younger so i understood. we then went back to grams house to play bau cua. while everyone else went straight home. my uncle, his girlfriend and peter and I went to buy drinks for everyone. I passed out in the car and didn't wake up till we were at grams. peter left to go out with his friends right after we came back to grams house. i stayed for a bit and then mom had to drive me home cause I had homework. I got home carried stuff in. started homework. wrote half an essay and went down to eat. I ate chicken with lemon and salt/ginger. went back up to finish it, came down at 2:00 am typed it now im here. bye bye, im hella tired. this counts as two kay cause yesterday I was kept from the computer.
