it's a wedding!

yes, the first wedding among our little msj group. and it was fun. :)

i had a great time this weekend, i've just been too lazy to blog about it. but now i'm bored with nothing to do so here we go.

on saturday, a whole bunch of people met up at my house just before 7. well, david came a little early so he could play x-men legends with mike. silly boys. kinda cute seeing them all dressed up and playing video games though. anyway, once everyone arrived, we headed over to the place. it was actually a gym that was connected to a church of latter day saints. there was a whole fall theme with leaves on the floor and pumpkins on the tables. if you haven't already seen pictures, you can see them here. although i think i will post a few of my favorites here after i finish this entry.

anyway, we had a yummy buffet thai dinner and spent the whole time mingling with old msj people and taking lots of silly pictures. it was good seeing everyone and we all looked so pretty! there was a funny moment when aborn was throwing the garter and none of the mission boys looked like they wanted to catch it. aborn actually didn't throw it far enough so it landed on the floor several feet in front of the guys. no one made a move to pick it up except for this little boy who lunged for it and then waved it in the air victoriously. i even got to see a little girl dancing with her father (or uncle) on the dance floor. she was doing little twirls and everything. so cute. tried to take pictures but they kept coming out badly and i didn't want to look like a crazy woman taking pictures of people i don't know (even though i am and i did).

afterwards, we went karaoking. at first, it was just me, deb, chi, jacq, ha, san, mike, david, steven, bobby, yeung, and kuan. (man, that's too long of a list). but some msj boys decided to come along later on (let's see... howard, john, paul, and nick). it was fun being in that room and singing our hearts out. i had a good time karaoking. i think it was just more fun with all those people there. and we were all dressed up! everything's just more fun when we're dressed up. ;D although the song selections were quite sparse. no nsync! no britney! yes yes, they're silly pop songs, but silly pop songs are the best to sing at the top of your lungs. but i must say that my favorite song that night was "pump up the jam" as sung by david and mike. anyway, after karaoke, we headed over to jacq's house (no parents!) and played cranium. well, everyone else played while i rested on the couch. tried to help the boys a little, but it was no use. and then we called it a night.

the next day, deb called around 1130 or something to ask us if we wanted to go eat lunch since jacq and bobby were leaving that afternoon. i actually heard both my house phone and my cell phone ring but refused to pick up either since i was just so damn tired and didn't want to get out of bed (i mean, c'mon, both phones were in the next room). i even heard the beep on my cell phone go off as deb left a voicemail. the woman was relentless, however, and called mike's cell next. unlike me, he actually leapt out of bed to pick it up. deb says that if he hadn't picked up, she would've considered walking over to my house and ringing my doorbell, possibly throw rocks at my bedroom window (actually, that's impossible since the backyard gate is locked and i doubt she would jump it after my whole gate jumping fiasco). damn her for living so close and always knowing when we're home.

anyway, we got up and got ready and met up with everyone at pepper lunch. i was scared of all the burning oil on my dish, so momma deb helped me pour the sauce on my plate. after lunch, we all headed back to my house so the boys could play x-men legends. yes, i played too. i've been brainwashed. anyway, that was basically my weekend. i loved it. i had the best time seeing everyone and just being stupid and silly.
