bLARRRgh I stayed home today bc I got sick =( it suuuuckss! I'm missing a lot of meetings today too ragh.

So yeah aside from being sick, I just filed my taxes!!! w00t I highly recommend the free version of turbotax. The website will try to sell you the $20 or $40 version but just do the FREE one and it'll ask for everything you need to file. I love working in washington bc I don't have to pay state tax. MUAHAHAHAHA & ok pleaaaaaase, I tell everyone this every year, DON'T go to H&R block that place is a rip off!!!!!

sooo I want to go back home to help my mom with her final surgery, but my projects at work are going to prevent me from going back home certain time. Ideally, I want to go back end of Aug or early September, when my projects will be finished but that kind of seems far away, so I might come home April/May. Either way, I'll find out when in the next few weeks. brace yourself Hawaii, da chibomb will be dropped.

hmmm well its Valentines day, Wesley's at werk now. wow a year ago, I think all of you would've thought I'm crazy to be back with him and living together. frankly, I think I would've thought the same!! When I first met him at the HK theater like 10+ years ago, I never would've thought he'd be the one I'd still be in love with. He was a tall skiiiiinny pale boy with a really shy smile. I taught him how to boogie board and go do outdoor things and he taught me how to use AOL and download music lol! ..yeah wow and now I'm the computer nerd that don't do sports! Thanks Wesley, its like I didn't even need my private liberal arts college education to get my job.

Jokes aside, well...Wesley's pretty much the ultimate boyfriend. he's known me so long, its like I can't even lie to him about other men. jk jk! ok ok forrealsauce, life never cease to impress. I feel like I finally completed drawing a whole perfect circle with my love life, I feel totally at rest. I mean man... some of the things I've seen out there, I never even want to see again. lol. I have no regrets though, I think it was important that he and I broke apart for a little bit and got back together. We're a lot more chill (as if we weren't before, its like the chillness on steroids o_O ), I think I appreciate his generosity a lot more than I did before and we don't take for granted the proximity of each others' company. I also like seeing that he's grown up about certain views and I'm sure he sees that I've grown... side ways *the love handles* ((( - v - ))) blaaaah, all G!! X3 We've been through pretty much every emotional state of a heterosexual relationship, I'm happy that he's the one in my life. I love the man! he's everything to me. happy valentines love ♥♥♥

but actually that place was ok. Those 2 dishes in the pic were the best. They are their specialty items called "juicy" dumplings. Really yum. But not sure about "world's best" that they claim to be.
