First and foremost I must apologize to my critics as I have abandoned my audience over the last month and for that I am truely sorry.

Today I got off work.. yay! Truth be told I have the rest of the week off, but it isn't technically off because I have to write the MCAT on Saturday... So really studying is what I am doing...

So really, entirely studying, not off... *sigh*... and some of you boyz thought I wasn't doing school work this summer... haha...

Alright Let me finish Japan... Since it was over a month ago, I shall summarize it quickly.

We ended up going to Yokohama, which is the second largest city in Japan. There we were on a boat cruise and then stopped... you have all heard the pigeon story by now.. hahaha.. Anyway, after that we went to China town.. which ironically is the largest chinatown outside of china.. Lemme tell you china town is the cleanest place ever. I wouldn't go so far as to eat off the sidewalk, but i am sure you could and not catch anything. They were also handing out the freshest hot chestnuts... Yum!

Also ironic was that Japan had the best thai food I have ever had... it is soo hard to find good thai... mmmm... i could go for some of that even though we have massive amounts of leftovers from the party on the weekend.

Anyway, after Yokohama we went to Mt. Fuji. There isn't much to do there, so we took a bunch of pictures, took a boat cruise around the mountain and went up to the fifth station.. haha.. not too much food choices there, but when lunch came around, we finally went to this place...

hahah talk about sketchiness to the max... there were things on the menu like "Fish cooking", "The curry that never ends" and "bowless soup" hahaha... i think we took a picture of the menu... i'll have to find the pic and upload it on to here.. it is hillarious...

After that we just revisited a few places and bought some souveniers. We had an awsome time and didn';t suffer too much with the time difference... at least not right away.

On to the rest of the summer, we just had a watermelon party... in other words everything at the party is associated with watermelon in some way.. wish you boyz could have come... but it was a small affair this year with only 40 people total.. it was fun.. at the end of the party each guest gets a picture and a card thanking them.. At the beginning of the party we take a group pic and that is what goes onto the card.

This weekend I have the MCAT.. which pretty much screwes anything for happening this weekend for me anyway... Although it will be fun cause I get to go up to Waterloo to write... MC baby... one more time with enthusiasm!... not quite

Next weekend however, is my aunts formal engagement party.. for those of you who have never been to one of these... well it is kind of crazy with the planning, preparations and ceremonies etc... Anyway, Apparently I have to represent my family, and since we are pretty close to them, it will be kinda cool to see what they are gonna make me do.. not to mention all the extra time I get to spend with my babies... they are the cutest thing ever... I love them lots.. I'll try and sneak them out of there... but as much as their mom would appreciate the quiet time, she would miss them too much after an hour... when they are older for sure... hehe...

Anyway, I'll try and update after my exam on saturday and let you know how things go... but don't shoot me if i don't have time or forget.... miss you all lots!
