Hello! It's been a while, I know. I happen to notice that I start off with that line quite a bit. Who can blame me, it really has been a while. And plus, I got a degree in accounting, not creative writing. So, please excuse me for the boring introduction. Also, anyone who knows me know that I am NOT a creative person, it's just not in my blood.

So, Shunsuke and I went to Vegas with two friends over Memorial Day weekend. It was a disaster! Well, maybe I'm being a little too dramatic but it was quite an experience. First off, they overbooked the hotel and moved us to a different hotel. We only got the news after waiting in line for 45 minutes, oh and that doesn't count the other hour where we had to wait just to check in. Shady, shady people. Their excuse was the floor where our room is is flooded and we can't stay there for the night. If I have known better, I would have asked for the room floor and go up to check for it myself. And maybe sue them for lying. I don't know if the court will ever admit the case, but it's definitely worth a try. Sure enough, that put a little dent onto our vacation. So, we got to the Hilton (the other hotel) and was given a room on the 13th floor. Not a lucky number, I didn't even think that they have rooms on the 13th floor anymore. I always thought that it goes from 12 to 14, skipping 13. Anyways, the room wasn't ready when we got to there, the lady was still cleaning. Waited another few minutes. So, we waited for close to three hours just to check in and get a room. Shunsuke and I decided not to gamble that night judging from the amount of luck we've had the entire afternoon. The next day was a little better, we got back to Caesars and got a free upgrade. I think we deserved it after all that hassle that they put us through. Also, I think the bed at the other hotel has bed bugs. I have spots on my legs the morning after and it itches like crazy. Eww! Overall the trip wasn't anything that I've expected. I was really excited to go because I've never been to Vegas with anyone my own age. It was always with my mother or my aunts. All I have to say is that it's overrated. Really wanted to watch a show and dine in one of the many award-winning restaurants. Never got to do that because we had to spend time with Shunsuke's law school buddy. Sigh, although I enjoyed their company, I wished we had a little more time to ourselves to at least eat dinner alone for one night. I love visiting new restaurants and try new food and it's a little disappointing that we didn't get to do that. And Vegas has tons of restaurants owned by award winning chefs. I don't know when the next trip will be, but I certainly hope that it would be a lot better than this one. Yes, and I really do mean A LOT.

Other than that, work's been good. Good days and bad days, but mostly pretty ok days. :) Oh and I just turned 24. Shunsuke got me this really cool gift, it's a digital photo frame and he loaded it up with pictures that we've taken and paired it with some music. I thought it was perfect. :)
