My Dad woke me up this morning by calling from Hong Kong at 7:44 a.m. (I remember the exact time because I was squinting at my clock in disbelief as the phone rang).

He never calls me, not because he doesn't care about me, but more because that's just the way he is. So I was a little surprised.

I think he's a little lonely, he said that he couldn't reach Mom so that's why he called me. I felt so bad for him.

I guess the timing is really good for us to go visit him then. To bring some cheer and family stuff (the good and the bad) back into his life for a bit, even if only for 2 weeks.

Since I was half asleep and a little incoherent it was a short conversation. I'll be seeing him Thursday night (my time), or Friday morning his time.

Did I tell you I sent out some Christmas cards? Only 4 actually.

One to the people I worked for this summer. Just cause they were so nice and they told me to keep in touch and I didn't, and also, I may want to work there again in the summer.

Another one to my really good friend from back in high school. I knew he would appreciate that my card was Unicef, the address label War Amps and the seal from the Lung Association.

A third one to CS. I haven't talked to him or been in touch for a long while. I kinda wanted to surprise him. Just to let him know that I'm not holding anything against him. Though I didn't give him my school address to write back to.

And lastly, one to Guy #1. Because I miss him. But for the wrong reasons. But there's nothing too personal in it. I did sign it with a heart though. Ha - I didn't even do that when we were together.

They were trying to describe me yesterday. Cause I didn't get some dirty joke or something, and they said I was so innocent. And I said that I wasn't as innocent as I look, and I gave them a sly smile.

My friend A agreed, commenting on the fact that I dated quite a bit (what?? Three teeny tiny "official" relationships in 3 years!). They were trying to describe my "innocent" quality.

One guy said I was "nubile."

I thought that was quite funny. I looked up what it meant, and according to Dictionary.com, it means:

  1. Ready for marriage; of a marriageable age or condition. Used of young women.

  2. Sexually mature and attractive. Used of young women.

I thought that was quite funny.
12:39 AM

Don't get me wrong, I do want to go to Hong Kong, and I do want to see my Dad, and I do feel excited about it, but right now, most of me is just exhausted and I just want to spend time at home where I can do nothing guilt free. I'm at that point where I just don't care about my last 2 exams.
