I LOVE MY FRIENDS.
I REALLY DO.

CEE, Evan and Laine! :)
Their awesome-ness can not be explained in words. It's like
virtually impossible. I'm speechless right now. Whatever I'm writing right now
can not express what I'm currently feeling. I owe them so much.
They're more than I ask for. They do the unexpected for me.
I'm so grateful that they are my friends. I love you guys so much. I know I don't say it often, but you guys hold
a very dear place in my heart, and I got so emotional today, I just had to tell you guys how much I love you.
I love you guys so much I feel like my words are not worthy of saying. I woke up at around noon. I freshened up and I went to Jean-Coutu to get my parcel.
I got my passport and I returned home. Then, CEE came. Then, Laine and Evan. We talked and talked and
laughed. Then, James came. They all insisted we watch a movie. I was like... well..
euh my tape player isn't working properly. Then, I told them we could stay in the living room. They still insisted. I was like... wtf? LOLLL. Then, we went down to play
Super Smash Bros.
I pwned them.
Oh yeah baby. All those years of hardcore video-gaming with my brother
paid off like bliss. It was like thumb-training ;) Anyways, then at one point, Laine shoots up from her seat and ran for the door. I was like..
huh? Then I heard voices and all, and I was like ''
What is Laine doing? Why is she talking? Who she's with?'' I wanted to go up, but the other three were trying to keep me in the game. I was wondering why they were like attacking me. Laine came down, and then I saw Matt.
I was very confused and lost. They had a big golden box with a cupcake, with a lit candle. They all started singing
Happy birthday. I was so touched. I just kept on smiling.
I wanted to cry so badly. I was so happy.
Writing about this right now brings tears in my eyes. I opened the present. I won't go in the details, but I think there were around 70 layers of wrapping. It was a Lindt Excellence chocolate bar.
Hahahaa. Along with the wrapping, Matt wrote taunting messages asking ''
ouhh is this the final layer?''. I wanted to punch him so bad. HAHAHA. I'm kidding.

Those taunting messages Matt wrote. T______T"
Then, Laine gave me my gift.
It was a fondue pot. :)
I'm so happy. I was surprised that you guys
remembered what I said. I remember when we had fondue, I said it'd be totally awesome if I had my own fondue pot and I could make fondue at my birthday! Now,
I CAN DO THAT! :D CEE gave me a set of five bracelets.
I LOVE THEM. I think she read through my mind. :)
I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THEM. SO MUCH THAT I WORE THEM FOR THE NIGHT :D
This was the final straw. When I read CEE's message, I couldn't hold back my tears anymore. I hugged Laine and I started
crying. I was so touched. I'm reading the letter again. CEE told me to re-read it in 10 days, well I'm reading it now :D I'll never forget this friendship, and it's not about to end soon.
Most definitely not. :) My heart is like tightening every second. I'm so touched, and I have this huge knot in my throat. I'm so happy.
I can't thank you guys enough. :)

IT'S MY NEW FONDUE POT! :D
Afterwards, we cleaned up. We went up and we ate a bit. I ate my
super delicious cupcake! It tasted like oreo! or cookies and cream! It was so good! :D Evan had to leave :T Matt and James shared cookies, while CEE and Laine ate a snow pear. :D

MY OREO CUPCAKE~!

I LOVE YOU GUYS!


Laine and CEE and I!

My Kirby face and Matt. :]
We then went out to take the bus.
It never freaking came. Anyways, we walked halfway to school after waiting till 5. We took the 48. And we got to school. The meeting was
amazing. I was so happy to see many people I missed so much! I clapped so much and cheered so much. I was so happy when they called my name, and I walked out to get my diploma. I was so happy. :) There were so many teachers I missed.
I miss AB. I miss IBO. Sigh... I had a lot of fun.
M. Robillard gave us these
little flower sushies he made with
Mme. Leblanc. I'm so happy. :) They're so pretty! Mine was the last one to be made so it's different from all of the others. I'm
green. :D

My little flower sushi. :)
Anyways, afterwards, we stayed till 8:40. We talked with teachers and
being the nerdy gang we are, we just stayed and chatted. :D We learned a lot about Maurice. Surprisingly. :P I finally got all the work I did in IBO. It's so big and I'm so happy and
proud.


Laine and James! Eunbyul and I! :)
We then went to
Pressecafe to have a coffee. Matt joined us there. I called him up and asked him if he was still free. I remember he asked me if I could go grab a coffee with him after the IBO meeting. So I figured I could ask him. We went, and yeah we talked. Eunbyul, James, Laine, Matt and I had
a lot of funny conversations. Eunbyul was like ''
what the hell? You ditched your group of friends to come here?''. Matt was like ''
Yeah, I told them 'Sorry guys! See you!' and I ran over here''. HAHAHA He's so funny. I simply asked him. I didn't
even threaten to kill him or anything. T_____T" We stayed till like 10:30PM.


YAYY! MY RED MUG! James and I! We look ..yeah.

YAYY! MY LATTEE! <3>
Then, Matt left with James. I went to the terminus with Laine and E. E left and took her bus. I stayed with Laine and Michuu came. Laine left, and Michuu walked me home. She got off at my stop and walked me to my house and continued back home.
It was nice of her.
Michuu and I. :)
I checked out all my work. I can't believe I went through all these years of work.
If I could go back in time and do this all over again... I think I would.
I loved this. My high school years were amazing, incredible and perfect.
I'm so happy today. I love my life. It may not be perfect, but it's perfect for me. I love my friends. No one is perfect, but we are compatible, and perfect for each other.
I LOVE YOU GUYS! VERY VERY MUCH!
♥

NEW YEAR
@ 4:00PM
31/12/09
THURSDAY: I had so much fun!
It was the last day of the year 2009! Matt came over to my house at 11:30 when I asked him not to came later than noon. We went to Maxi to buy fruits and chocolate.
We took pears, kiwis, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and a pack of toblerone chocolate. I also got a pack of chips for my brother.
We then went to pick Laine up. Matthew said he wouldn't want to drive to her house at night. It's really creepy and deserted. :( Laine was baking a cake for her family dinner at night. After she was done, we all went back to my place.
We watched the Proposal and it was hilarious! After the movie, we started preparing the fondue. Matt was fixing up the chocolate. Laine was peeling and cutting the pears and the kiwis. I was washing the blueberries, blackberries and the strawberries. When we were done, we sat down and ate and talked. Matt tried
multiple times to steal the fruits I dropped in the chocolate. He said it was a free-for-all, but I didn't play fair. :D TEEHEE. And I helped Laine when Matt tried to steal hers. He was like ''
Oh this ain't fair. I wish Jackie was here''. I remember this time when Laine, Matt and I went sushi with Jackie. He ordered a lot more than we could eat.
It was terrible. Anyways, I ate so much chocolate. I become so energetic. It was weird. Afterwards, they both left to their family dinners, and I napped a little while, and I got up again. I had to meet Laine in Montreal around 9.
We were going to spend the countdown together. I met up with her and I went to greet her family. Afterwards, we just walked around the Old Montreal and the Old Port.
We loved the weather.
It was snowing lightly. It was so fun.

YUMMM~! TOBLERONE!

Matt and Laine. :)

I look so
tired and disgusting! Matt is trying to steal my strawberry! Laine is so cute!
In OLD MONTREAL.

I always make faces. :P
Our cheeks are rosy and red from the cold. HAHA.

This was right before the fireworks. :) Like... say 30 seconds before countdown?
Near the end of the night, we were both
freezing. The fireworks were
beautiful. :)
