I've got one more week of holidays until it's back to work! Well, I may have two weeks depending on if I have a project ready for me or not...
Unless I find a job soon and it starts right away?
My holidays have been relaxing and enjoyable so far. I feel like I'm spending a lot of time idling though, kind of miss working already.
On Christmas I spent time with the family, we had banh xeo and egg drop seafood soup for our Christmas dinner. It was fun!
Boxing Day - I just stayed home... slept in way too long because I was playing the new Phoenix Wright 3DS game. Soooo addictive. Was supposed to go out but it didn't happen because I woke up so late.
My bf came back from his hometown and we hit up the malls for some Boxing Week shopping. We just window shopped... but the deals were really nice! He couldn't decide if he should buy this one nice trench coat or not, so we put it off until he next day. We also hung out with a friend of ours who wanted to try this Malaysian restaurant, but when we got there they were already closed. We headed to Applebees for dinner instead, and when we got there we learned what a "Flash Freeze" warning was... the wind was blowing tons of snow dust at about 70 - 90km/hr... it was SO hard to open the door and when we finished our dinner we found it a challenge to maneuver our way onto the roads, but we were able to drop our friend off and head home. The next day I hung out with my friend and tried out a new bubbletea place we've never gone to, since we wanted to go for Korean food, but all of the Korean places nearby were closed for the holidays. The food was okay, we had Taiwanese chicken with rice and vegetables, along with some fish balls. The fish balls were really good, but the rice was kind of not fresh tasting. We also had some bubbletea as well and they were massive!! They both came in huge beer jugs lol.
Afterwards I went to the mall again with my bf... we window shopped again but were too hungry to keep going so we just went home.
Today we went to Best Buy to check out deals and buy some games. I bought some new Sony ear phones, since my iPod ones are broken. Luckily the ear phones were on sale :) My bf bought Mario Party for the 3DS and AC4 for the PS3. We went for bubbletea afterwards and had some fried chicken popcorn snacks and played Mario Party. Very fun!
Not sure what we'll be doing on NYE, I kind of want to have a get together with some friends to celebrate, or go to one of those elaborate parties, but they are a bit pricey.
I applied for a job today, I really hope I can get some call backs tomorrow. Having interviews ready for the new year would reassure me I haven't lost my skill in job hunting!
I think I'm going to make some Omuraisu tomorrow. I miss eating Japanese cuisine. Ahhh I want sushi...
