Sled Dog Race

This is from last week, we went to watch this sled dog race. 50 miles. ;) It was a good experience I suppose, the dogs were adorable! I want one.





Here are some pictures:


























The boys did some racing too. They didn't win, but they each got $5.




Willy got a lazy dog and he trotted the whole way through.









Brian got old dogs and they trotted too.









But Chris got the fast ones. yay



I don't think they were too happy about it--but I was. ;)

Nephew-ness

So I'm really discouraged that my camera is broken. Anyway, I finally admitted that it's broken and put the xd card in to check out the last photos.. and THIS is what I found.



Oh My God. No wonder my poor camera broke. teehee.







I don't know what Cha is doing to her son, but all I can do is pray for them and know that Jason will be okay when he grows up. lol.












It's just so funny, yet ugly, yet cute. I don't know how to explain it. The poor boy didn't know what everyone was laughing about. I know that some of you who don't care for cute little kids will just be like, "aw, not another Jason post." But these are for the aunties and uncles and those who DO like kids.

These two Jason videos are a bit long and boring, but there are some really good parts in it.

The first one is of Jason trying to talk, he even blows kisses. So skip to where Cha is holding him. Yes? yes!
The second one is of Jason playing hockey. You can hear him saying "ball" and it's cute.



I also found this:
Special auntie and Jason bonding time. It's old but it's precious so I'll post it.








Goodnight. xoxo

To Mari...

My most special, best, awesome, cool, crazy, silly, friend Mazzerz...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
17, I know it's not the same as turning 16, or 18, but still... I can't believe how fast time has passed. It seems like just a while ago you guys came over to our house. Then I was all embarrassed, asking your Mom for "Marri" and her not knowing who the heck I was talking about.








Then I remember you and Cha getting along so well.... I would get so jealous because you guys would walk on the tiny sidewalk and I'd try to fit beside you but the cars would start honking cause I'd get in the way. *sigh* poor len len.









But you were always my friend, no matter how dorky or weird I was. And you ended up becoming my very own bff! We always had fun no matter what, whether it was going for noodle pickups, sitting in the park and cloud gazing, giving massages, taking purris, going to the daiso, karaoke, baskin robin dates, telling scary stories, and the list goes on.













You always know when there's something wrong or I'm feeling down. And you also know how to make me laugh again. You always have some wise words to say that always seem to amaze me.
Time, places, people, may change, but those times we spent together are some things that I will never forget. You will always be my best friend, and I will always keep you close to my heart. We may not be able to communicate as much as before, but you're still the only one who I can share some things with, who already knows everything so I don't have to explain the whole history. Who shares and understands my frustrations.














So thank you Mari, for being pretty much the greatest. I don't know what my life would be without you. You complete me. I hope this year brings many fulfillments and blessings your way. I'm also waiting for you to visit me in the summer, so be sure to come. I love you Mari. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I found this

It's something Mari and I wrote aaages ago. We were playing this poetry game, we both had a paper and wrote two lines. We folded the lines over and switched papers, telling the person the last word so they can rhyme with it. The result was kinda interesting and I thought I'd share with you. Maz was being all poetic-like, and I... was being foolish. Sorry I ruined the groove. lol!

Mari: The clock is ticking on my wall,
that much time is lost,
Elena: You never carry me when I fall,
or find me when I'm lost,

Tainted innocence with broken hope,
Sunshine lost and cloudy dreams,
Words were harsh and my poor heart broke,
it's worse than it may seem,

fractured memory and dusty thoughts,
haunted dreams and empty beds,

everything's dirty I need a mop,
To wipe up my heart--and wet eyes that are red.

I know that I'm gonna write a whole 'nother post about Mari soon, but I couldn't wait to post this. This and some other things brought back so many fond memories. Anyway, I miss "us."

Dear somebody

This is for you.









Call me crazy but, it's only because I'm crazy for you! was that smoothe? Capture your heart? heh. (It was super cold btw)












And Jason is just looking way too cute playing hockey.













Oh, and here is Lixy and I, singing amazing grace for sweet retired citizens of Canada.

ありがとう!!

So the yesterday I was pretty angry about somethig, but when Joe, Cha, Lixy, and the babe Jason came home, they brought me a shiner prize from the Asian Mall--my favorite, chupa chups and ramen snack! Brings back some pretty good memories in Japan. They also brought back pizza and karamucho chips, mm-mmmm! Well the karamucho chips were theirs, but I could taste them just by looking at them. haha! I LOVE it!
Anyway they made my day and this is just a huge thanks to them. (Don't mind my plain face, and just focus on the yumminess in my hand and the happiness from within my heart.)


And here's a little treat for you, Greg showing who's boss. hehe. He scored twice, and his last one was a buzzer beater. The last pic is of him scoring. Woohoo go Greg!

Sweetness

So yesterday morning, after staying up till 4 AM chatting with a random guy (ha-ha), I'm awaken at 9:00 by a knock on the door.

Me: grumbles...yes??
My younger bro Chris peeks in with a big grin.
Me thinking: oh no what now??
Chris: Here Elena, *pulls out a plate with an omelette and a cup of hot chocolate* Brian and I made you breakfast!

Awww so sweet. I was touched, really.
Now the parents are home and we can get back to normal schedule. School and school, fun fun! *cough* I'll be seeing Greg and his mates play basketball at his school today, if I had a camera I would take photos. sob... anyhow, staying home alone with my brothers hasn't been all that bad. Some good brother and sister bonding time. ;) Watching scary movies, playing wii, eating chips.. yup!

Sayonara :(

Today is a very sad day. My camera died. Yes... my sweet, kind, brave, tough, little camera is broken. Now I don't know how I will ever replace it. It survived being splashed with water, being dropped too many times, being in the hands of a baby, and apparently being soaked in lime. And now, after taking its' last footage of Jason it just.. died. I'm trying to see if I can fix it, but I don't have much hopes for it. *sob* How am I ever going to post random videos and pictures of my life? Well my blog might as well say goodbye to that.

I'm also supposed to be seeing the markhamians tomorrow, but I found out they were sick with the fever today.
I'm praying for you guys!! It's probably sadder than my camera, but I'm looking on the bright side and saying that I'll see you again. So I'll be seeing you. ;) Oh, and have fun in Texas Lainz and Andre. ;)

Well anyhow... since I'm going to be home alone with my little brothers and Greg, I'll have to take the roll of snow white and take care of them. hehe. Or should I become a task master and make them cook for me, clean, and get me things? muaha-ha!

Oh and listen to this song, this Brandon Heath guy is just the coolest. Love you all.

It's cold!

And it's late. And I just want to snuggle with somebody warm right now! I guess my blankets will have to do for now. I think my sisters have rekindled my love for romance novels, and on that note...good night. Sweet dreaaams!

Jan 6, 2010

Wii

We have WII!! yaaay! Christmas present from Greg and our parents. Yep... this has been what we've been up to every night. Boxing in particular. I videoed Cha and Joe fighting.
You have to watch it till the end... Cha starts strangling Joe! eheheh! The best!

My stay at Markham

I'm sure you've never seen THESE photos before. he-he. These are all the photos that I didn't get to post when I was at Markham. (To Markham people: Try to focus on the good memories--and not how ugly we all look kay?? :D)
Anyway, these are just random photos from caroling, sledding, being foolish, and karaoke. It was a good two months. I miss them!!! I miss my OCs! But it's a new year, and good things are bound to happen again. Woohoo! I'll leave you now with these happy photos. Love you all!
