smile for me. (:

so it's august twenty-third, blog, which means drew gets to be seventeen years old for one year.

(so what, mr. "haha i'm older than you evangeline"--you're going to die before me. :D )

since we care so much about drew to make time for him on his birthday, we all planned to go visit drew at his nice seventh adventist church where i was flower girl at almost eleven years ago. @_@

andrew and michael came to my house in michael's too blue car (but it's pretty!) but i wasn't done making drew's birthday card so they had to wait and wait and wait in the house. -_-

they grew restless; the clock striked twelve forty-seven, and we left.

because i insisted on getting drew a cake, we dropped by the aromatic jj bakery to get a slice of cake for the dear drew.

it was all to get him back from last year's "the quest" outreach during april when the blue man group (reube, spenroe, kevin, wilso, jordan) were told to cake drew because he was the "birthday boy" and despite his protests, no one believed him and *bam* he got caked really bad.

and so he was told that i was the one who told them to cake him (but it was GLEN who told them to) but i really didn't, blog!!

i was just an innocent onlooker laughing with the crowd.

unsuspecting and sitting in the front, i find myself suddenly hit in the face by a very greasy cheesecake. -_-

i wipe off chunks of cheesecake from my face to see drew laughing hysterically.

HEARTLESS DREW. i wanted to strangle him until his nose fell off. @_@

and he thought he was "getting revenge"..psh WRONG PERSON, drew. >_< "GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT IF YOU WANT TO MESS!!" haha. (quoteth wilso)

so that was all last year--sixteen months and four days ago. -_- time to get drew back.

i wanted to get a chocolate cake from the bakery so his face would get all brown.

but all the chocolate cakes were hard and not muddy enough so i got a coffee one.

and andrew messed up. -_- he was supposed to say on cue: "happy birthday chua! i have a surprise for you" and then i was supposed to pop up and fling cake at his face.

but i was still writing in the card. -_- and drew already came out. so i had to improvise.

after shouting happy birthday, i hand him the meticulously made card and as he looks at it, i hurl cake at him! hah! caught him off guard! heh :)

but he was wearing sunglasses so it didn't really get on him. so i caked him again--in the eye--and this time his eyes started to sting and his contacts started to cry with pain. @_@ (sorrie drew) and i felt bad..but he deserved it anyway and i was comforted. :)

so they talked and talked and i talked with maasa :) then daniel and steven arrived with their presents and they talk and talk and TALKED. -_-

i wasn't ever aware that boys talked THAT much. @_@

well so it was hinted many times that drew should throw a party for us since we did "so much" for him. :)

and drew's mother overheard and she agreed that drew should treat us out--heh. :) yay. he's going to treat us out to places like roda viva or chuckecheese's tomorroe!!

which reminds me that i promised to take tye to chuckecheese's this year or rather next year for his birthday since i'll be driving by then. april twenty-seventh. i hope i remember.

i didn't have time get to cook lunch for my siblings and they were starken hungry. so i bought seven chicken soft tacos. and michael can't talk and he said to the drivethru lady "seven soft chicken soft tacos" and the lady was confused. -_-

and i needed ninety-nine cents because i wanted FIVE dollars back NOT four dollars and one cent back. -_- but michael and andrew didn't have ninety-nine cents. and i was sad.

so at home, i vowed to myself that i wouldn't procrastinate procrastinate procrastinate on the last day before school started so i read one of my dear darling books, jane eyre. or rather, spenroe's dear book.

i lost my poor jane eyre book and i was crushed..but i was walking in spenroe's room when i spotted jane eyre in his bookshelf and yay he let me have it. (but i still can't find mine -_- )

it's one of my favorite books, blog. :) i like classic books. but it's so sad in the beginning--like when her aunt reed and her cousins are extra cruel to jane and how she got beat up by her cousin--and also in the middle that it grew so intense and i almost cried.

but don't worry, blog, i didn't. because i would just close the book and remember that it's just fiction.

i'm not even sure what our summer homework assignment is. -_- i keep reading the assignment paper or rather PACKET over and over but i get overwhelmed and a wave of dismally and drabby things and sad nostalgic things crash at me and i would beggingly wish that steph would become the first lady president and ban school. -_-

on a brighter note, my father took all us kwans kids (excluding marianna and steph since they're in the foreign lands) to the thomas burton park or the better known as unclerobertpark to go pinicking. (: (thanks angela for packing the sandwiches ^_^ )

jordan didn't come because he said he would be interrupting family time and rule number one is to never interrupt family time. good boy jordan *pat on head*

so it got dark fast and we were cold so we ate in the warm 'dan the van' and talked about godzilla and jurassic park and what we would do if robbers were chasing us..and about mannerisms--just for abraham. :) since he's learning how to be a gentlemen.

which reminds me that me and steph wrote a long list of things last summer in hong kong we needed to teach abraham in order for him to be the perfect boy. (:

so me and christina accidentally felt down in the dumps and talked and she loves me. but i love her too. too many things in this world to worry about. but it's okae. she just shed tears not cried. and water just spilled from my eye. and Jesus loves us. yay.

well five minutes and forty-six seconds before it strikes midnight as next day: happy birthday drew, my dear drewest bestest friend since seventh grade. *hug* be good and peace out.
