His uncle is obsessed with Best Buy and it’s hilarious. He can spend an hour there and literally buy the whole store. His favorite credit card is its card because it has no interest and I don’t know…it’s hilarious how concentrated he was when we were in there the other day. While he was looking for his stuff, Michael and I were looking for gps tracking devices because we travel a lot and I’d be nice to have one. I know a lot of people with those things and they don’t need it at all; I’m not sure why they have it; what a waste of money. His uncle told us of a really cheap one at Best Buy that we didn’t see. I think we are going back there soon to check the cheap one out!

This house is pretty nice. I like it a lot. Although the two regular rooms are rather small, the view in the backyard is amazing. There’s a large lake with catfish in it and it just looks awesome. That reminds me, I want to take a picture of it before we leave. Speaking of the house, the living room is really big, big enough for a home theater system. There could be home theater lighting in the room which would make the place awesome. They just moved in so they haven’t done all that yet.

I met his step mom for the first time. I sort have wished that I met her when I met everyone else because it just made me more nervous while she walked into the door. She just came back from somewhere in the middle of the US and I was staying at her house so I wanted to make sure things were nice and neat at her place. So I went to the bathroom to tidy a few things. I was also thinking to tidy up the kitchen a bit when I saw that both of the sinks were clean but then I realized, I don’t think I’ve stepped foot in the kitchen before. haha.

She seems pretty nice so far. His little sister is the cutest thing ever. She’s a bit on the shy side but hopefully she’ll open up soon for me.

There was a good point mentioned yesterday while he was getting his eye exam. His uncle asked why he didn’t have a watch because he wanted to get him sone of those luxury watches on at the outlet. Michael said he didn’t need one because he had a cell phone. He said well when you’re working you can’t just take out your phone. And when you’re in a business meeting making a speech, you can’t take you phone out to look at the time. That’s what you have your watch for! I think that’s a really good point. I think I’ll start wearing my watches again soon when I get back home.

Today was a pretty nice day. His uncle took us to eat wings for lunch and then we went to a bbq car meet. It was pretty cool. It’s like the ones Michael takes me back at home expect its for Honda Preludes and there’s more people. His grandma steamed crawfish for dinner which I didn’t eat, heck no! And she was going to cook pigeons but she decided not to, thank god!

The highways here are a lot like the ones in LA. I guess it makes sense though. I heard someone say that in some states, the gov’t is going to make people get a Bluetooth headset for when they talk and drive in car. If they don’t, its a ticket! Weird. Not sure if I want one.

His uncles day off is Wednesday and I think he’s taking us to the beach! I’m so excited. Last time I was really excited about going to the beach was when Shantel took us to the Outer Banks. I love going to places I never been. Awesome, this reminds me, I have to start taking some darn pictures !

Today were going to a cookout his other uncle is hosting for all of his car friends. I can’t wait, it’s going to be a really hot day. But filled with family again.

Everything down here reminds me of California. The Family. I miss when everyone would go out to big chinese buffet dinners together. We went with his family last night and it made me really reminiscent of California. Everyone seemed to be having so much fun together; I wished I was in California with my family. His family seems really nice and caring. I miss having gigantic family dinners whether it be in California or Vietnam.

His dad’s place is really nice. I think his bathroom has like a walk in tub or something but I enjoy it a lot here. His cousins..or uncle are really nice and Americanized haha. It makes me miss my family very much.

We got on the plane at 6am last morning to visit his family in the south. We didn’t get any sleep whatsoever that night because we had to pack and it didn’t seem worth it only getting a couple of hours of sleep. Plane trip wasn’t that long but our layover was longer than the flight itself. But we spent our time well and watched the movie Jumper while waiting.

His family is extremely nice and he resembles his dad so much. Actually he and my dad resemble each other. HAha They have the exact same style and everything. My favorite person so far is Uncle Jimmy. Uncle Jimmy showed me all of his Pokemon cards last night. Uncle Jimmy is 7 years old. He made me promise to play rock paper scissors with him tonight! How adorable.

Well I just took a shower to get ready to go to the biggest mall in the America! Before that we went to Walmart to get a few supplies. As I was looking to for shampoo I came across the adult diapers. It was funny thinking about them. Well some women actually still do wear them; they’re called pads! I’m glad I won’t go near those anymore.

I miss Europe and Vietnam. I miss that one summer when I went to both continents. It was the best experience and summer ever. I remember the long hot walks in France and Germany and the amazing views of the Swiss Alps. I also remember getting all those different stamps on my passport whenever I would step upon a different country. Too bad I don’t have those stamps anymore because it expired. But I think I took a picture of it. Heh. Maybe next summer, I’ll be able to visit Vietnam?

Amy Winehouse is an interesting character I must say. I can’t really judge because I don’t know her at all but she’s been all over the news and I can’t help but wonder what’s going on in her head. She’s been to several drug rehab centers I think and she’s currently being treated for her weak lung or something. Well I just wish her luck and I hope she fixes her hair, that thing is Marge gigantic.
