11th February, 2002. 6:09 pm. My Parents are so Cute

I'm on duty right now. I'm DC again, so I'm sitting in the rec room till 11 tonight. I also have a midterm tomorrow, another Physics one, and was not originally on duty tonight. I was originally scheduled for duty on Thursday... Yup, on Valentine's Day! At first, I thought it'd be okay because I'm only backup, so I'll check in for duty right after my class, so go back to my room to prepare something special for Jonathan. Then I thought about it more and realized it would suck when I have to leave for rounds. It might be inturrupting something good, so at meeting on Tuesday, I asked around to switch it. Tessa was nice enough to offer to switch me her Monday DC shift for my Thursday backup shift. After switching, I realized that I have a midterm the next day and won't get to study! But oh well, I get Valentine's off. I ended up being a little late cuz my class let us out late. Oh well, maybe I'll fit in some studying time. I 'm so unmotivated this quarter.

Anyway, to my point. I just checked my mail and actually received something for me, and not the past HA's. It ended up being a valentine's card from my parents. (They donate to Alpha Phi, and Alpha Phi sends me a card they wrote) It's cute. I received one last year with a broken english poem. Very touching. This year, my dad wrote me another poem:
"Caroline (and he drew a big heart)
Roses are Red
Violets are blue
You are our Favorite
Daughter and we
Love You! (drew another heart)
Parents"
Isn't that cute. hee hee... Did I mention I'm the only daughter? It definantly put a huge smile on my face and just what I needed during midterm season. Aw... I love my parents.

Yesterday, they came down to orange county for some huge orchids show at South Coast Plaza. I thought the plan was for them to come to my place first, then we head over there together. I spent the whole morning cleaning. We found like 3 HUGE spiders in the process. We vacuumed two of the up since they were so big and on the carpet. I smooshed the smaller of the three and heard it pop and squish, so it's a good thing we didn't squish the other two. Anyway, so we end up meeting up my parents at the show. I've never seen so many exotic orchids (and expensive, some plants were like $200). It was a cool experience. My parents bought four plants and we went to dinner after. My parents gave us red envelopes for Chinese New Year. It was too bad that I developed a bad headache at the end of the night. I didn't say "I love you" or give my parents a hug at the end. I wish I did, but at that time, my head hurt and I was so tired.

Current mood: loved.
