So I realized my blog posts about this trip are not very detailed at all. I write them right before I go to sleep (youtube video watching) so I don't really feel too obliged to make a detail post. But then I read over them and to me, they just look repetitive and simple. So.. from now on I will write more detailed posts, starting with this one!
Today I got up at 2pm. I was actually awake around 9am or 10am before that... since everyone wakes up pretty early here and two people who were staying over were leaving to go home today. I could hear everyone's voices here and there... I just stayed in bed and tried to sleep for a few more hours. Eventually I fell asleep and woke up once again around noon to hear someone had come for a visit. Then I went back to sleep... and woke up later.
I woke up and was greeted by our visitor, I said hello and asked her how she was. She told me she was good so after our little chat, I went to grab my items so I could get ready for a new day.
I think the longest part of my morning routine is blow drying my hair. I used to use one of our visitor's hairdryer's... because I thought it was my sister's, but it wasn't. And then our visitor went home with her hairdryer, so today I had to ask my sister for one. Anyway, the reason why blow-drying my hair is such a long task is because the one I used before was kind of weak. The one I used today was more powerful. I would say it takes about 5 - 7 minutes for my hair to dry... not completely, though. That would take too long. Actually, 5 - 7 minutes is what it feels like it takes... it's probably only 3 minutes, but I have no idea since there's no clock in the washroom or anything.
I finished my morning routine and headed out of the bathroom. Ate some of the cookies our visitor brought us, and had a chat with our visitor. She asked me about school and such, and told me about her child who is also going to school. I also went on the computer for a bit to check on job postings for fun, and then I went on FB for a bit. Mom told me to go get ready to go shopping so I went to get ready.
We headed over to my brother-in-law's shop. I found my niece and greeted her. She was with her friend so they didn't really pay much attention to my presence. My niece stayed at the shop with her dad, and so we headed off to Superstore to go buy some groceries for dinner tonight and for future meals.
Superstore was giant... for some reason I think it's more giant than the Superstore back home, but whatever. The colors of the store weren't green like at home, but they were blue/white/red. Interesting...
We walked around and picked up some meat, vegetables, some bread, and a few fruits. I was too fixated on the bakery aisle with all the pre-packaged cheesecakes in President's Choice boxes and the freshly baked in-store cakes... last year my family would purchase strawberry cheesecake from wal-mart every 2 or 3 days.. haha, and we would eat a piece everyday or so (well I did). I don't think we'll be getting cheesecake this time though... or maybe we will at the end of the trip?
Went to checkout and paid for our stuff. Mom bought a scratch lottery ticket thing.
For dinner we had some nice hot bowls of Pho. I also had some more of the fresh apple juice from the other day. There's half a milk jug of it left... I hope it doesn't go bad soon. It's really good!
Didn't do much for the rest of the night. MSN-ing.. and the usual. :)
