1 mississippi, 2 mississippi, 3...

So it was that time again. Had to count all the products in the store before the year ends. Everybody was at work. Usually it takes us longer, and we stay way longer than midnight. But we already had some counting done beforehand so we got home "only" three hours after closing time. Heh.

I was so jetlagged, had a hard time keeping my eyes open, but I managed. We had a good time I guess. A lot of counting, bull talkin', counting, eating, and some more couting. Yeah, yeah... here are some pictures.

New goodies. Yeah, I said it.

Boss Hog.

Crazy man.

...

Still counting.

More counting...

Hah! Trying to eat more healthy now that I am home. Hah...

Big Bosses getting their SALE strategy on.

Ricebowl again... no hate!

A family that counts together, eats together.

Can't wait till next year... Sike! I guess...

So I'm leavin', or am I?

Woke up early, the bags were packed and I said bye to my cousins, aunts and uncles. It was time to go. Gilbert, Ace and Cynthia was the only ones able to drop me off at LAX. We went early to make sure that we had enough time; incase of traffic and ques at check-in. So we drove and drove. Got their actually 3 and a half-hours before my flight. I already checked in online the night before so I only had to drop off my luggage. We were supposed to just hangout and just chill together the last hours. But I was messin’ around and saying that I still wanted to go to Fairfax and shop and chill. They took my words and made it into action. At first I didn’t believe them. With sudden traffic jams just waiting to happen I thought that this wasn’t going to happen. But we did it. Swear I was nervous to miss my flight. We drove hella fast. Gunned all the traffic lights and Gilbert drove like a king. And we made it! Wow. Got to say bye to the Hundreds guys and pick-up some last minute stuff. Nice. Crazy experience. A minute their I thought I was doomed. Not that I didn’t want to stay. But just because I know my dad would kill me if I missed my flight because of consuming. Hah! Thanks guys. It was crazy. Next time lets push it even more. Sidestreets and only one hour before the flight. I’m going to miss you guys. Thanks for everything. I’ll be back!!

The rest of the trip went by nicely. LAX to Amsterdam went smoothly. I sat next to a really cute older couple. Really expreienced with a lot to say. I love sitting next to those kinda people. They always tend to broaden my mindset. The food was great as well. That was a first. Hah! Fell asleep to some Simpsons episode and almsot slept the whole 9 hour flight. The last flight to Norway was cool. Not to many people and no problems. So many empty seats so I had a whole row for myself. Laying on the row while watching Fresh Prince. Nice!

Got picked up by the de Claro brothers. Thanks guys. They even helped me to move into the new apartment. Its so nice. Come over? Hah! Finished the day with some non-junkfood for once. RICEBOWL BABY! HAH!

Guess I'm home again...

Ready to go.

Artsy. Heh.

Worldwide.

Really didn't want to be there...

Hmmm...

Laughing at my boardingpass. Hah! Stay tuned...

Cynthia with MY pillow!

Cousins.

Nervous guy... swear I didn't want to leave the airport once I knew what they wanted to do. Hah!

Finally got a picture of the sign.

In the fitting room. Hah!

Crazy cousin... oeuff!

Still nervous. But did get my stuff. Hah!

Gilbert and Cynthia. Cool kids.

My boardingpass. Hah! Didn't have any blank paper to print on. HAHAHA! The airport workers looked at me funny when I showed them it. Hmmm...

Best memory makers! Thanks guys!

See you soon!

Hah!

I brought a bomb on the plane. Gangsta!

Nice.

Thanks for the ride.

Nice to meet you again dude.

Aren't you from that one show!? Hah! Nah but thanks for the food as always.

#14. Bomb!

See you in a bit

The last day. Oh what a vacation it has been. I was sad that I was leaving, but more sad that I was leavin’ Lala. Don’t get me wrong I will miss the people in Cali, but Lala. Oh! I’ll miss her a lot. Moving away from me to the P.I. Good luck sis. I know you got this. And I’ll do everything to visit you. We made it this far. Hah!

Anyways, since it was her last day, we made sure that we hungout the whole day. So, we went to the Mall to do what we can best. Shop! Hah! And of course we ate. I finally got to eat at Red Robin again. The burgers there are awesome, and you can’t go wrong with the bottomless steak fries. Nice. Hungout at the Mall for a couple of hours, and just enjoyed the company.

Later on our designated driver, my cousin, my hero for the vacation, Gilbert picked u sup and we met up with some friends to eat again. Swear I have eaten this whole trip. No hate though. We got some asian food this time. Some sweet and sour popcorn chicken with noodles and bobba drinks. Obese here I come. To kill some more time we even played Taboo in the car. Hah! It was fun. And you already know the Angeles family won. It was starting to get late so we stopped by to say our goodbyes to the TKE THT crew and friends. Sad, but it had to be done.

Then we were three. We drove Chrisla home after that. But first a quick stop to the best ice cream place ever. Yup! Coldstone! Nice! I had been craving it ever since I got there, so it was a cool way to end the ttrip. Later that night we just hungout, played wii fit (crazy!!) and in the end we said bye. Miss you Lala! HELALA HOT!
