sober hangover

this new years was spent at the beach with some friends and a horrendous amount of booze..well horrendous in amount only because there were only a few people to drink the said horrendous amount. it was pretty much drive. sleep. eat. eat. drink. games. drink. drink. drink. drunken walk. midnight. walk to the beach. bottles of champagne. new years. hug strangers. fireworks. celebrate with strangers.
so quite a good night in the end.
christmas was a bit odd this year. my brother fell through the ceiling. and a relative died. so not as fantastic.
oohh! i have managed to pack all my shit into two suitcases. although i still believe that i should’ve received an award for doing so.
AND i accompanied my mother and a long-term home stay border to the electronics store. we went in there with the intention of buying a simple sim card. we were in there for an hour. the border is carrying around way too much foreign cash, hadn’t signed his credit card yet and also doesn’t even know how to use it. on top of that my mother knows nothing of electronics.
SO my mother translated broken english from a vietnamese boy into singlish which i had to try and decode into normal english so i could try and explain the whole mess to the sales rep.
there’s another person who should recieve an award for patience.

thank christ almighty that it’s now over.
