2nd March, 2002. 2:37 am. Happy Birthday, Astra!

Today is one of my lil sis's birthday! I made her two things and I REALLY wish I took a picture of them cuz they turned out sooo good! I'll just wait till she develops her pictures and I'll get them scanned... someday. It was really cute though! She loves pink and stars, so I made her a yellow frame with two blue stars on a pink stand. But the best part was... picture a treasure chest, but about 5"x8". Jonathan helped me paint the exterior all baby pink, and the inside baby blue. On the bottom, we lined it with baby blue velvet. And on the top, which is domed shape, I made like a sky on it, with sun, moon, stars, and clouds. On the bottom, I put little flowers. On the outside, I got wooden letters and put her name on the top. You just gotta see it... can't describe in words. Just gotta see it. I'll try to get pictures.

Before heading out to Astra's thing, we ate dinner with Lynn, Kevin, Sir and Al. It was fun. They left for Vegas right after. We just got to sit around and talk and EAT! yay! hee hee... Too bad that's all we had time to do. Maybe we'll get to get together and hang out more next time.

We then headed over to GameWorks to meet up with Astra. Too bad they didn't choose Dave & Busters instead... I wanted to play shuffle board. Oh well, Jonathan promised that we would play soon. But the gathering ended up being all her jcrew co-workers. At first, I felt weird cuz Jonathan and I were like the odd balls, but it didn't take long for me to feel right at home. They were friendly people and VERY cool to hang out with. I met one who was a DG here, so we talked a lot in the beginning. Then I met another artsy person who also goes to UCI, and she was so cool and sweet! She liked my present to Astra a lot, and was "inspired". It felt very nice when she told me that. She also made Astra some pretty KICK-ASS gifts! She made her:
- a pillow case that had a picture of Kobe Bryant on it, and it said "Sweet Dreams Astra".
- a tee-shirt that had a picture of Kobe Bryant holding a basketball against his face, and bellow it said "He wishes that ball was ME!"
- a tee-shirt that had Apollo Ohno with his head hung low, resting on his hand... like a defeated person sitting on the bench, and below read "I wanted gold. Now I want Astra Woo"

It was sooo funny! The whole group couldn't stop cracking up! But I love Apollo Ohno though... he has very good sportsmanship and such a nice guy! Totally not a sore loser/winner. Love that guy. He was on the Rosie O'Donnell this morning... he was so cute! He had brought his silver medal and put it on her desk. Part of their conversation went something like this:
Rosie: "Did you get any presents from the Olympics?"
Apollo: "presents?" *looks down at his medal*
Rosie: "Hey, silver medal, not bad. But did you get presents, like endorsements or anything?"
Apollo: "no... well, it's only been a week"
Rosie: "Well I got you a little something" *reaches down and picks up a stack of bandanas* "I got you a stack of new bandanas!"
Apollo: "oh cool!" *graciously takes them*
Rosie: "Do you watch my show?! Do you think that's all I got you?!"
Apollo: *shrug*
Rosie: "I got you a 2002 Pontiac Aztac. Pick your color and it'll be delivered to your house tomorrow!"

He was so cool. I just really admired how he handled everything in the Olympics and carried himself very well. Okay, enough about him before Jonathan gets jealous... heh heh. But he shouldn't worry, Apollo's too young... remember? I like my MEN older! ha ha ha... yeah, nice and old. hee hee... (Jonathan, you know I love every "year" of you) =P

Current mood: amused.
