serious insanity: June 2019

Forgot to mention that after we came back from South Korea in April, we spent that next weekend in a treehouse for Meethu's bachelorette party. We "kidnapped" her and drove her to Candlelight Forest, which had a big treehouse Airbnb that we had booked a month earlier. Meethu has been trying to get us to stay at a yurt for the past couple of years, so she thought that we were finally spending the night in one lol. She was really happy about spending her bachelorette in a treehouse though!

It was really pretty! The forest also hosted weddings and had hiking trails to walk explore, so we had a lot to do as we walked around. They also had a picnic option, so we ordered lunched in a picnic basket and had a picnic in the forest. Then we went for a hike and realized that we're all out of shape lol.

We dressed up and went to Cheddar's for old time's sake for dinner. Then, we went to an escape room, which was really hard! It was fun though! We made it out with around 29 seconds to spare! After that, we went back to the treehouse and spent the rest of the night talking and catching up some more.

All in all, a successful bachelorette lol.

The next weekend was the beginning of May. David came up to visit, and we finally went out to watch Avengers: Endgame, which came out the previous weekend. I took him to Studio Movie Grill, since David hadn't been to one before. The movie was really good! I only cried twice lol.

The next day, David, Kyle, Michelle, and I went to the Blackpink concert. David told me that he had wanted to go to the concert a while ago, so I bought him tickets as a graduation present. It was really fun! They had great stage presence, and I knew all of their songs. Merch is always expensive, but I still got a longsleeve shirt because I wanted to something lol. We actually ran into Lauren with some of her friends there, and I know David's older sis was there with some friends.

That Wednesday, I drove down to David's house after work. We got dinner with Kim and his dad and chilled for the rest of the night. When it was midnight, I decided to go to sleep since I was tired, but David was still playing Fortnite with his friends. I ended up sleeping for 30 minutes before I was woken up by the game, and I couldn't go back to sleep. I stayed up for another hour reading on my phone since I couldn't sleep. David noticed that I was awake and was mad at him, but what does he do? He continues to play Fortnite.

By the time he turns off his PS4, I'm still mad at him and I realized that we stopped putting each other first. Instead, we've been putting our friends first. That's when I thought that our relationship wasn't going to last, so I was crying for half of the night while we talked things out. The next morning wasn't any better either.

I was so sure that we were better off breaking up that morning, but David was graduating that day, so I didn't want to do that to him and ruin his whole day. I kind of kept up that line of thought the whole day, but by that night, I had changed my mind thinking that we could get stronger from this now that we knew what the problem was. We just needed to work on us. We then kind of put off on having that discussion since we were so busy that weekend.

The next night, David and I met up with Willy and Janice to watch Detective Pikachu. I ran into my bro there, who I hadn't seen the whole time I was in town. He was also going to watch the same showing of Detective Pikachu with some friends lol. Afterwards, we were hanging out in the lobby, talking about the movie when I ran into Krista and Eric! I hadn't seen them in so long! Lol they came to watch Detective Pikachu as well.

That weekend was Mother's Day, so the parents came up to hangout with some family friends on Saturday. Then, on Sunday we took them out to eat hot pot. Afterwards, the kids went to get bubble tea while the parents bought some groceries at the farmer's market. Then, we went to the mall since Mom and I needed to get a dress for a wedding the next month. I didn't find anything for me, so Shelle and I went to the mall close to our house, and I found a cheap dress instead!

The next morning, David went to Vietnam. He had a morning flight, and what do ya know, I woke up at five for no reason and couldn't go back to sleep. So I texted him some of my pent up feelings since we never had a chance to resolve anything last week, and we talked until he got to the airport. I finally felt better afterwards since I felt like I was finally able to tell him everything that I was feeling.

That Wednesday, Archana came over for a sleepover. We hungout and ate Masaman curry that Shelle and I cooked the night before. Archana, who eats like a bird, actually ate a giant plate and had seconds. It was a miracle lol.

That weekend, I went to Florida to house sit with Jessica's family. I finally got to meet her hilarious mom and younger bro lol. The house owners are some family friends who recently moved to Florida, and they needed someone to take the dogs out and feed the cat. It turned out that we were over-prepared for the cat and under-prepared for the dogs lol.

The dogs were super scared of us, so it was hard to get close to them at first to even take them out to use the bathroom, while the cat was super friendly and always asking for pets lol. It was a big, fat, inside cat who got jealous of me petting the dogs, so the cat scratched me and the dog! By the end of the weekend, the dogs finally warmed up to us and came to us for pets and scratches lol.

The house was really big, and they had a pool, so we spent the majority of our time outside. I didn't really feel like swimming, so Jessica and I spent most of our time in the shade reading and napping lol.

We went to a beach later in the day, which was nice. We got lost on the way, but we made it in time to watch the sunset at the beach, so it was all good in the end. And the weather was so nice! It was finally cooler with a breeze.

The next weekend was Meethu and Luke's wedding. Saturday night was the dress rehearsal, where we all found out that they hadn't planned anything lol. I helped them figure out the wedding party order and order of procession. By the time Emily and Sean came from her sis's graduation dinner, they helped us practice the order of procession and told Meethu that she was also missing other things as well like music lol.

Man, what would we do without Emily who was also planning for her wedding in November? Lol.

The next day was the wedding! It was crazy lol. All of the bridesmaids came over to get ready at my house since we had the most space, and it was just like us getting ready for prom all over again, except Meethu had a professional makeup artist this time and I actually know how to use makeup this time lol.

Then we ran over to the venue, where the guys were supposed to help get things ready. However, Meethu and Emily ran over to the bridal store to pick out shoes since Meethu hadn't gotten any yet, so they were late. Actually, Harini, Meethu's sis and maid of honor, was also running late, so we couldn't get any pictures done yet either. Lol her parents came late and were busy getting ready as well, so we didn't get many pictures taken together.

All in all, the wedding was really nice. After the ceremony, the wedding party went outside to take pictures, so we all melted. Then we came back to eat and do speeches and dance. We all stayed behind to help clean up.

Then Jackie, Shanice, and I went over to Jackie's new apartment since we hadn't seen it yet. She also got a new puppy named Leo who was super cute! But we made plans to hangout that night the day before since we all haven't had a Wine Night in so long. It was really good too. We went to Kroger to buy wine and snacks, and we talked until 1:30 that morning catching up on everything. Man, it was really nice to talk about all of our relationship issues and laugh and cry about it lol. Definitely need to have another Wine Night again soon.

The next day was Memorial Day, which was great because I needed a day to relax after having such a hectic weekend.

So that's how my May went. :)
