Super Weekend

Super weekend! Now back to the same old, same old. One day down, only four more to go. I can do it...yeah right.

The weekend started out kind of hectic with the house ordeal, but it was soon fixed with a nice trip to Costco, followed by KoP!! I admit that I probably got a little too excited about shopping once I got into the groove of things. As a result, I have a few things I need to return. Hung made out with the purchase of the day, a nice wool coat that looks super great on him. It really fits him well and doesn't make him look short and weird. Wool coats are really a toughie with him, and we were both surprised (or maybe it was just me) how well it fit. It even has insulate!!!! J.Crew = love! I bought a hoodie from there, and I'm amazed by how warm it keeps me. We ended our long shopping day with a nice dinner. Mmm..that spicy tuna was delicious. Kind of craving some of that curry chicken we had too.

Sunday was an adventure!! Day started with Hung picking me up super early (compared to normal) to get some breakfast at McDonald's. Went to Virginia with his parents, which was a huge deal to me. This was like woah, big step approaching. Please be cautious and don't trip and make an ass out of yourself sort of thing. The car ride was super nice. Made really good time and arrived in Virginia to see snow falling from the sky! Snow, I tell ya! It was so nice to see his family again. Really missed them, even though I just saw them a few weeks ago on Christmas. Being with his family really feels like being with the family I never had. My family is just so different and spread out. None of my aunts and uncles are close to my parents, and I never grew up with a nice, big family. I cannot wait for Chinese New Years to see everyone again!

The car ride home was a bit tricky. There were tons of cars on the road, all probably thinking the same thing by trying to get an early start back home. It was pretty dangerous out there with a lot of cars stuck on the side of the road, either from an accident or car failure. Scary just seeing it all and being worried that we could be one of them. I thought falling asleep would do the trick, and maybe I would wake up in Maryland. Actually work up in DC, and the George Washington Parkway was the scariest part of our trip. Needless to say, we survived. Got back onto 495, and we took a pee pee break at a gas station in ______ (omg, I knew the place too because that's the location of the one internship I was looking at...gah). By the time we were in Maryland, there were just a bunch of slow drivers, all scared of something known as water! It was crazy, but traffic started flowing once we neared Baltimore. In four and a half hours, we made it back home safe and sound. It was a super car ride! Went back to his house for dinner, and then retreated back home before it got too late. The roads in Delaware were so normal. Makes me wonder why Delawareans are such bad drivers, like they've never seen snow/rain before.

So yes, that was my super weekend. =)
