I love studying with coffee!! The new she and him album is just as cute as the first.

I finally got my first free fitness magazine in the mail and it has 7 dinner recipes(mon through sun) They even give you a little shopping list. I made the first one today. it was okay... these potaotos that were supposed to take 20 minutes took like 45 minutes to cook and... i just don't like sweet potatos. a little disappointing. hopefully it will get better...after a whole week!

This was such an awesome weekend! The couple I study with came to their first meeting! They are just the nicest people ever. Apparently they made a day trip out of it.. they went to the beach in the morning then the meeting! They are so fun! and they really liked the meeting. I am going to sleep!

Wednesday my mom came into my work and started crying... saying her youngest daughter is all grown up... and then she came walked behind the coffee shop counter and hugged me while I was making peoples drinks! It was so embarrassing! But, she is so nice! Aw.

WOW SUNDAY

My mom made the best of the best dinner yesterday. Sophie and Caleb better feel pretty special!

Three different kinds of fish-it was a fish sampling day.... Fresh tuna, one that was breaded, and another white one.

A huge bowl of soba noodles with scalions!
I huge salad with kale and those cruchy white things usually in vietnamese food and sesame seeds.
and then this delicious cucumber salad with honey! and then to top it she made tempura onions with this amazing ginger soy sauce with cayenne pepper!!!

She is an amazing cook!

Oh procrastination.... 2 more months and no more dreaded assignments! Must do homework before an hour before its due.

So I borrowed and Urdu Bible and showed this couple I study with! At first it was sooo hard because the english speaking husband wasn't there and I thought I had marked a scripture, but turns out I marked the right verse, but wrong book! And why does their number system have to be so weird! I think they don't even understand urdu numbers. Thank goodness the husband came and figured out how to find scriptures! Otherwise that poor lady would have been so confused. Despite the lame language barrier, it was such an awesome study because they finally got to read scriptures! They wanted to keep the Bible, but I told they have to wait till theirs comes. Their kids are so adorable! However, they used to be so quiet and afraid (which was kind of a nice quality) but now they are loud and want to play all the time!

So Far Around the Bend

work today

So my boss has been complaining about the work schedule ever since i said i can't work sundays--meeting change--. I used to feel like i had power at my job..not anymore. He really wants me there sunday to the point where I think he will fire me all the other days just so in a desperate attempt i say I'll work Sunday. Not going to happen mister. SO today I decided running away from him at the end of all my shifts was not going to work anymore. Instead I made like 3 possible perfect schedules for all the employees. Wel. Hope it works. at least he'll know i am a "team player"!

AHHHH stupid car!

It is amazing how you can get to all these places all over with carpooling... yet i still hate it! I want my car so bad!!

(Last week some neighbor of mine with no license or insurance ran a stop sign and hit and run my car. She didnt run far though enough though..)

I was all excited to ride my bike home tomorrow from work.. i told the sister who was going to pick me she didn't have to! i made a playlist for my ipod! THen i came home and was looking all over the for my bike! no where to be found. It turns out my Dad decided to disassemble in an effort to make it go faster...apparently he has been using it without my permisison... lost a part and it was still in pieces in the shed! ahhhhh that was just the icing on the cake! I feel so unindependent now......... But until then I really incredibly appreciate all the rides people have been giving me it is super nice.
