A Less Likely Cognitive Entry... but still.

Hello! So when I first started this blog I told myself I want to write at least 2-3 posts a week. I think that failed the first week. I promise I am a very pensive person with many wandering thoughts during the day that I would love to turn into thoughtful posts. But because time is a luxury I feel like I rarely have, I end up doing other important things like spend an hour and a half uploading 85 mobile pictures onto face book..... (Mobile Uploads with little reception suck). 

This week was kind of a cloudy dismal week in the Soh hood household. On July 14 11:57 a.m. a member of our clan, Nemo, our goldfish of three and a half years passed. This was no ordinary goldfish. (I guess it was in the sense that we won it at an annual Hometown fair in Manhattan Beach by wasting two to three dollars at a game booth to claim our 10cent prize.) He really was a survivor and fighter until the very end. We are all convinced that he died and resurrected in... 1 day. Literally. I'm not kidding! My mom gives herself credit for being Nemo's life support. He was doing the half floating half swimming thing most fishes do right before they die. And suddenly my mother starts hollering at the fish tank (Oh and this is when he received the name 'Nemo.' He didn't have a name before. My mom just started calling him Nemo.) yelling, "NEMO. YOU CAN LIVE! YOU CAN DO IT NEMO." My dad, Jeremy, Meg and I just sat there thinking... "Who's Nemo?" and "Our mother has seriously gone crazy." Little did we know that my mother's encouragement and supportive words actually resurrected our nearly dead fish and thankfully he was with us for another year. Good bye Nemo. You can never be replaced and you are with us in spirit. =(

GOOD NEWS THOUGH: The same week Nemo passed, we discovered a new home on our backyard heat lamp! A beautiful bird has built a nest and is currently laying her eggs there. Yay!!! New Friends :D

Here's a glimpse of what this week looked like:

The devastating text our family received. =( Please ignore my brother's insensitivity.... (But honestly. My dad is kinda ridiculous.) 

Good bye Nemo. You will be missed. :(

New Beginnings. :') Her name is Bella named by Megan Soh. :) 

"Studying" for midterms...

Spent sweet time with my sister from another mister, Isabel. Made banana cream pie and watched How I Met Your Mother for the first time. Learned about the Olive Theory. Nice. 

Went kayaking and had lunch at Angelo's Deli. Good company... good food. :) 

Lol. He is so distracted... Had dinner with Matt, my cousins and sibs at Bucca Di Beppo. :) All I remember was him saying, "Erin. You're being weird and embarrassing me in front of me new friends!" ... WOW pfft.


I shall write again soon. Till next time, keep it real folks. 8)
