Saturday with Jan
Posted on April 21, 2008 by Ching under Flickr, Life, Movies.
After getting out of my group project meeting, Brian dropped me off at Jan’s house. Jan and I got manis and pedis. 🙂 We have matching French tips now. We hung out at the mall, just browsing stuff mostly. It was the first time that I had gone anywhere without Brian.
Later that evening the three of us went to Applebee’s for dinner. Then we went to watch Lars and the Real Girl at Jan’s. That’s a weird movie, actually. One of the main characters is a Real Doll! I’m surprised that Jan had it. It’s a funny drama. That’s the only way I can describe it. Ryan Gosling did a great job. He actually got Jan to cry at the end of the movie. I would have cried too except I still hadn’t wrapped my mind around the whole Real Doll thing.

Pictures from Wednesday Night
Posted on April 20, 2008 by Ching under Life, Poker, School.
These were taken at one of the Viega dinners at the Hyatt during the week of their national sales meeting. We had a blast! Brian’s boss bought us into the Western sales region’s poker tournament that night. I ended up taking second, but I’m thinking if I had another hour I might have taken Scott down. The hotel staff made us wrap it up, though. Then again, it was well after midnight and they needed to pack up and clean the ballroom.
I gave my winnings to Brian to donate to the Relay for Life fundraising event at his work. They’re having a money war. Brian said he gave the money to Darrell. I’m not sure the $100 will make a difference toward the inside sales team winning against the marketing department. Brian tells me that there is no way that marketing will be able to catch up. Even though they didn’t need my help, at least the money is going to a good cause.
By the way, I was inducted to the Beta Gamma Sigma today. I will blog more about that and post pictures later. Speaking of recognition ceremonies and receptions, I was invited to the multicultural graduation celebration on Sunday. I asked Brian several times if he wanted to go, but he said no and told me not to ask anymore. I’m pretty much over the whole “boycott” thing. However, Brian’s apparently not. He still hasn’t forgiven them for slighting me so we will be absent from the event. Oh, well.

Best Prank Ever

I’m not sure Brian could have accomplished this by himself. Whatever the case, it’s brilliant! The sign they hung outside the cubicle to contact Human Resources for inquiries on the individual’s (Steve) employment status was pretty funny, too.
Someone actually came up to Steve at their offsite meeting and asked, “Do you still work for us?” Everyone got a kick out of it, Steve included.
