Happy Birfday To Me!!

Yay another year has pass; I'm another year older...etc... It's not that great a feeling of aging even though I'm still in my 20's and pretty young. So yesterday was my family's annual visit to the cemetery to pay our respect to our lost family. The day started early as usual but somehow we didn't leave when we were suppose to. We had to make an extra stop because most of my family that we go with is from my mom's side so they go see my mom's dad, while my own family has my dad's dad at a different cemetery which is only maybe five minutes away. So we tend to stop there first and pay our respect then meet up with the rest of my mom's side and pretty much eat and chill there just because one of my uncle is also there and Justin's other grandpa's there. So we do our praying and hell money burning until I find out my mom's sister had a nose bleed that's been going for at least two hours. Her blood just would not stop and it eventually dripped into her mouth and she kept coughing up blood...etc. So we had to cut out the celebrations earlier to drive her to the hospital to see wtf was going on. The cemetery is in upstate New York and we live down in the city and we thought her insurance might not cover her visit to the hospital up there. So my sister drove back to NYC and my aunt ended up going to Beth Israel and I had to go in to translate since she doesn't speak English that well. (joy....) We're hanging out in the ER and eventually the doc comes to check on her. By then the bleeding had stopped and when they looked into her nose, they apparently saw that the speculum I think had been ruptured on the tip where there are a lot of vessels and that's why the crazy nose bleed. They wanted to seal it up by using meds and whatever that stuff called, but eventually they didn't.

Turned out my aunt also had major high blood pressure it was 200+/120 I believe which is consider deadly high. They did and EKG on her and a chest x-ray and turned out there were some sort of irregularities and they wanted her to stay overnight. I was there for three hours waiting. I sat in these uncomfortable chairs and fell asleep. My other aunt finally came by and said we're going to dinner and she'll go by later that night to check on her and that we're all just gonna eat and go home. Dinner was at a Chinese restaurant as usual and it was good and fun hanging with the family. The sad thing about yesterday (beside the nose bleeder) was that not many of my family went to the cemetery! Quite a few moved away and some didn't want to go and it was a small gathering which use to be much bigger. oh well that's family....

So today's my birfday and my sister took me out to dinner with my nephew and she invited this friend of hers just because he was going through some shit. His son is a little mental and he was kinda freaking out and she wanted him to relax a little by asking him, his wife and son out to dinner with us. We had Chinese again..... If it had only been the three of us, we might gone to Olive Garden which I kinda wanted to but meh I don't care cuz I'm not paying for dinner xP!

For some reason I felt really uncomfortable with the mentally unstable kid there. His mom also was being kinda weird as well. I have NO HATE towards people who have problems but I just felt odd with them there. The kid was being loud, demanding stuff, asking if he could have certain things, etc. He's 19 so its not like a child demanding stuff like my nephew so it was odd. I kept my feelings to myself and carried on with the dinner. It was fine I guess.

The food at this particular restaurant was really awful. My fav dish which is the boneless chicken feet with sweet and sour veggie was HORRIBLE! The sauce was bland, the feet tasted funky and the only thing I ate was the sweet and sour veggie. There was a shrimp dish that my sister had had last time she was there which she loved but it tasted like garbage this time so she was pretty disappointed. Turned out the main chef wasn't there and I guess his sous chef took his place in cooking and we could totally tell with the crappy quality of the food. I'm not one to get all upset or anything because it was suppose to have been my bday dinner so it was just nice to go out and eat and not have to do dishes lol!!!!!!!

So the day is almost over and it'll be a new year. I hope things for great for me and life only gets better as we age! 

doing absolutely nothing atm except write this......
