End of Third Academic Year
It's the end of the term. Spring is here but exams are also here...My dear friend, Aanchal was craving for dim sum. So we went to a dim sum restaurant in Chinatown last weekend to feast on the food. It was such a scrumptious meal! We couldn't stop ordering. For every cart that comes by, we took something. And we gobbled it down FAST. Usually, dim sum folks eat the food for about 5 minutes, chat for about 15 minutes, and then continue eating again ... but we ... tsk tsk tsk.
I am pretty sure we were the only group of young adults there. The restaurant was packed with either families or old people. But it was good that we went there early. Otherwise, we would have been waiting in line for an hour or so.
April 19th was the last day of classes. On that day, we went to chill out at a cool restaurant down at Whyte Ave. We also did some shopping. I bought myself a really cute top :) At Julio's Mexican restaurant, we had margaritas and a delicious combo platter.
And that night itself ... the small drinking party took place ...
I was showing an angry face at that shot of Vodka. We all had to do it, haha. My friend who saw this picture on MSN display, thought I was eating the hi sour sweet. Worse still, he said it seemed like I was having an orgasm ... -_-
But it was kinda fun although I was pretty exhausted from the day's shopping and walking. We always start off with a game of UNO whereby the losers will drink a shot. There was tequilla and vodka. And we played three rounds of UNO. It's funny when you can't differentiate the 6 and the 9 card. Also, we added that extra game feature known as "cutting" (basically if you have the same card as the one out there, you take your turn by putting it down ... FAST). It gets harder to concentrate on that when you're tipsy. After that, we played the number game. This was also pretty silly. Actually, I knew of this game because my parents played it with their friends. And they were really drunk from all that wine. Basically, the objective of the game is to NOT say the number 7, any number containing 7, or a number that is a multiple of 7. You clap instead of saying it out. So imagine, when you're drunk ... and when you're not 13 years old anymore ... you lose the game pretty fast. My friend said 14 and he had to drink. We didn't even get past 28, haha!
Well, that was one night of fun. Now, it's back again to reality. Exams and a research paper to complete. Yuck.
