Darren's back to school! so we woke up early and headed back to his apartment after grabbing a slice of toast. We walked to USC and had a little tour around his campus. After Darren met up with his accounting counselor, we stuck with Joy for a little bit before his International Tax class started. Met up with more of his friends and made our way into the classroom. Professor Wayne was cool with me sitting in so everything was alright. Even chatted with him a litt...

I woke up with a sore throat and a deep bass voice. Popped some medicine before having a toast and banana that Darren prepared. We went to GCCI for Sunday service.

12/30 I must say that I love shopping at 後火車站! A lot of great deals on adorable things! Had lunch at 雲滇 again today. In the evening, the mom and I secretly went to Sogo to get my little bro his birthday present! Bought a black PSP3 and anpan man candies for him, hah! Anpan man is our little inside joke about it being my bro's hero. Around midnight, we gave him his surprise and, of course, overwhelming hugs and kisses :) 12/31 Today's my little bro's ...
