Feels Good to be Back

"To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best..."

VIVE LAS VEGAS: Spent the whole weekend in vegas, and wow it feels like I've missed out on so much. The trip was alright, there were some cool moments. Ate some good food, went to some hot places, lost some money. All in all, vegas is always more enjoyable to go w/friends. Left early friday morning and got to vegas in good time. Spent a lot of shopping at the outlets. The outlets had some really good deals! I bought 2 bags cuz it was buy one and get one free. Took care of my secret santa gift for the youf ministry, good deals at quicksilver, american eagle, and robinsons may. Half of my list is already done now! yay! Gotta get a couple more items for tomorrow, get a couple of things blessed, and im set to go.

FRIDAY: We got there at around 3pm and then checked errthang in the room at circuus circus. Chilled there for a while, until my cousins and other aunts and uncles came. Circus circu had this meal deal, buy one buffet, get one free or half off or something like that, so we did that fri. nite. The food was blah, not really a great selection to choose from. In fact I left feeling still hungry. My sister, cousin, and his gf, went to club pure at caesar's palace, I only brought clothes for 1 nite of clubbin, so I juss did the whole gambling thing at the different casinos. Freee drinks at the casinos are the best. Walked ot mcdonalds late that nite for dinnner and the line was forever long. Id hate to work there, I'd so hate my job.

SATURDAY: Woke up early, see thas the thing when I go to vegas w/the fam, not a min. is wasted. Had an early lunch at mandalay bay...lunch portions there kinda suck. I'd perfer the dinner menu instead, but oh well. From there we split up into 3 diffrent groups. Went to the mall and found something ot wear for christmas yay! Its a pretty cool mall, then they had this christmas show going on and cool posters inside the mall. Then went to the wynn and had to luck there, brought back memories from last time ha! Went to the orleans and that was aiight, didnt win anything there. LAter on went to harrahs and to ross, at that poiint I was juss already tired. Had hooters for dinner, they all brought back chicken wings to the hotel.

IN THE CLUB: Oh yeah I have nice story to tell. I was at the vending machine trying to get a drink. The stupid machine my quarters and I had already put in $1. Here I am hitting the machine, looking for my change. This man comes seeing that I was tearing up the machine, and asks if I needed a dollar. I explain the story and then he gives me a dollar. Whatta nice guy he was. Got ready to go to tangerine at treasure island. We take a limo over there for only $30, nice deal and then gave us VIP passes to the club. We still had to wait in line, but the admission was free! The place was aiight, juss reallllllyy crowded and there was such a diverse age range. From young all the way to old and I mean literally old. I saw this elderly couple there maybe late 40's, early 50's. It was kinad boring cuz there wasnt anyone to dance with..and I wasnt about to dance w/my sister. The music was crackin, mixed with errthang. Then inbetween the music and eerrthang there was a fashion show happening. The funniest thing though after coming out of the club, this gay guy stops my cousin's friend's gf and says to her, 'I like boys, but you're efffing gorgeous!' hahahahahahhahahahahaah Then went on and on, it was funny though.

GETTING TOGETHER: DUring the holidiays, the one thing I enjoy is getting together w/friends. Doing the whole going to dinner, catching up, messing around etc. For the youf ministry, we got together after the meeting, at olive garden. Im really forunate to have made some really great friends. Despite all the messing around and all, they're geniunely cool people. Starting over isnt exactly the easiest thing to do, but I praise God for these people who became a reflection of Christ's love to me. The late nite convos in the parking lot, the 'classic moments', then the moments where we can laugh so hard until our stomach hurts. Then, there's the other group of friends, who when I'm not around them I miss them. Juss cuz they know me pretty much inside out, were the ones who have helped me grow and we pray together its juss awesome. Christmas time really is great...

ALMOST DONE: So I'm pretty much almost done w/the shopping. HAve a couple more major gifts to get then Im done. Being done w/your christmas shopping, big accomplishment! The thing I hate though are the last min. you forget to get. Then you have rush out into all the traffic and get it. The one thing I hate bout christmas is the wrapping! Agh!!! Thas why I usually have somemone do it for me. I cant make it all neat or anything like...its juss easier to put em bags then you're set to go. Goal to finish w/errthang by thursday...yay! Tomorrow is the last day of work...then I;m off for two whole week! woooO!!!


Please pray for my friend thanks!

"Yes, its true..."im done, im out God bless!
