Lunch with Norm and Sylvia; Summer’s Bridal Shower

Woke up at 11am, did half of Jillian Michaels abs work out, showered, then headed to 12:30 dim sum with Norm and his 6month gf Sylvia.

I should workout like this every day 🙂

The food was ok. Sylvia was ok. She wasn’t super fun, wasn’t energetic nor charismatic nor “interested”. She seemed to not concerned with what I think of her nor was she at all insecure, which were I guess the cooler facts about her.

I thought long and hard about what to wear, but it didn’t matter. She seemed indifferent to everything. Our sense of humour didn’t jive. Norm tried hard to bridge the conversation…

There’s that charm that I guess many people lack. I hope I’m more charming than most people!

2 hours in I was ready to leave. I got home and tried on various wigs. My “my little pony” wig actually is quite good! I know I seem undatable, way too weird, way to childish and k-pop, to be considered gf material. But it’s not like any of these guys are bf candidates. I’ll find an occasion to wear it 🙂

In the evening, I went to Sum’s bridal shower. Her sister Kirin hosted it. Their house was BEAUTIFUL!! Tall ceilings, grand furniture, impressive and classy decorations.

About 20 people came, and they were all very nice. She does have a lot of good friends who care about her. I don’t think I have that.

Her sisters Kirin and Ang were really nice. They looked totally white for some reason.

The food they prepared were AMAZING! Bacon-wrapped dates, tandori chicken, mouse, grapes wrapped in (goat?) cheese, amazing salsa on bread, raspberries wrapped in white chocolate….they were better than the foods at Annie’s baby shower!!

The drinks were great too. Some had cool fresh sprigs of herbs in them, most had berries. So much thought went into it.

We sat around and she had to guess the person who wrote the card, and the person will bring her a gift.

Mine was the first, and she was happy to get the ties, bow ties, and a bottle of Vera Wang Princess perfume. That set was $270USD, which was $370CAD. A big gift. The biggest gift there. I wonder if they knew. Either way, I hope she appreciates it lol.

I sat by Ashriya who was Kirin’s daughter. She was 9 and lived in this beautiful house. I told her her name was beautiful. Her sister Morgan was by Summer, writing down gift notes. Lexi was beside her.

I actually really liked her. She was very straight forward, as kids are. I think ever since that Patrick told me she didn’t want to have kids but like kids, I realized it’s ok to like kids but not wanting to have my own.

I don’t like all kids, but I liked Ashriya. She asked for my name, and said she liked my name too.

She asked me how I make friends. Interesting question. I said, “Well, I just say, you wanna hang out sometime? But sometimes if it’s a guy, it’s a little bit harder because they don’t know if you want them to be your friend or your boyfriend.” I asked her, “How do you do it?” She said, “We just say, wanna be friends? And then I say, sure, wanna be best friends?” Hahahhaa. I miss those days.

I told her that it’s harder as I get older because some ppl already have a best friend. She said, yeah, or sometimes you don’t know if they just want to be friends because I have lots of stuff.

She asked, “Wanna see my room?” I was actually really curious about her room the moment she told me she lived in that house. We went up, and her room was so cute! Immediately I noticed a upper “floor”…it was a tiny triangular area with a glass siding. We went around to the other side of the bedroom wall, climbed up a sofa, into an “escape room” which then lead to this “floor”. It was so cool! Turned out they built this house from scratch, and asked the kids to design their dream house. She was 5 so she just drew marshmallows and and candy canes like it was a candy cane house hahaha. What a bunch of lucky kids!

We sat around and talked about water slides. It was fun to just be all dramatic like kids are when I’m with her.

She showed me her brother’s room, which was awesome too. Sports themed. Then she showed me her sister Morgan’s room, and it was probably the best. It had shelves filled with toys, including plush bunnies. There was a little walk-in closet, and some tiny room that was just for fun….I think it was safari themed?

The best part was that there was a lizard (Crested Gecko) in her room! Ashriya showed the lizard Jinx to me. It was the first time I ever touched a lizard! It was so cute and so beautiful! It was a big-headed gold lizard. Its feet were so soft. It kept walking so I kept putting one hand in front of another for him to walk onto.

Then we came back downstairs. She immediately went to confess to Morgan that she took her lizard out. Aw. So cute. Morgan wasn’t impressed, but was ok with it. Ashriya said, Are those my pants? Lol. They share pants.

So Ashriya really liked me. Everyone liked my pink dress (the one I bought for maybe $10 when I was in Shanghai). People complimented me on my earrings, my dress, my figure, my style. Awww.

Christy was there. She was nice. She has been vegan the past month. Same old with her she said. Still single and feeling sad about it. She couldn’t take her eyes off me, which was strange. I asked if it’s because I’m wearing a different wig, and she said no it’s just that she hasn’t seen me in so long.

She looked about the same, maybe a bit more nasal labial fold wrinkles. Her and I were the only good-looking people there I think. Summer’s sisters were not bad. The rest are just very average looking people. I sorta see why Summer wants to be associated with my, Christie, and Cyndi.

I think people liked me because I looked good and was outgoing. And the kids liked me because I was nice and was the youngest looking one. I’ll enjoy this while I can 🙂
