everyone who knows me, knows i love my extended family
so yesterday and today were just completely awesome
last night, i left uni around 6:30pm and got pickle to drop me off at hyde park instead of central station
and then as i was feeling sorry for myself for having to spend friday night alone (since everyone was going to be out) i walked by mizuya and bumped into a familiar face. my cousin kenny! who i hadn't seen for almost a year!
so he pulled me in and i ended up having a pretty nice dinner with his new wife and friends.
then i bussed it home, and bumped into my littlebro at the busstop! serendipity levels at an all time high!
then this morning, i got woken up at a reasonably early hour and went yumcha with the extended family.
my cousins' little kids are so cute.
and then just bantering and laughing with the cousins that are the same generation as me - anita, jess, kenny - was so great. left me blissed out. hahahah.
oh! and the food was pretty good!
oh! and another random coincidence! bumped into amy and her new beau yum-chaing with her family at the table next to ours. loooooooooooooooooool.
anita just came back from europe. (so. damn. jealous. can. not. handle.)
and because she loves me so much...

story behind this is the first time i went to venice, i brought home some glass plates because they're just one of those things you buy as souvenirs
so i bought one for anita and one for myself. and carried them both around the world with me for a month.
when i got home, my parents were going through the stuff i bought and my dad just kind of roughly opened up my carefully packaged glass plate and dropped it on the floor (shattering it)
i ended up bawling for like 10 minutes.
so this is one reason why i love my cousin a lot, alot. because she got me this, without me asking her to <3 love you so much!
and then looooooool, anita doesn't know this, but i have actually been kind of eyeing the longchamp les pliages tote for a little while although i had like next to no intention of buying it.
just kind of eyeing it in a i-really-don't-mind-if-it-drops-in-my-lap way.
so i'm really fortunate that my cousin loves me and knows me enough to get me one. and get me one in navy which is the colour i would have bought myself.
so two for you anita! you win at life, and i suck because i need to up my gift game. <3
because you give me some of my most loved gifts (and memories)
donna.
