Danish Minhas?! THAT'S A FOOD ITEM! / Chanda Turner?! BAD SPELLING OF SHANDA!

Mom picked me up at 5 so we could go to Tsim Chai for dinner before the VOS (Vancouver Oratorio Society) choir concert that Dad was doing at Fraserview. BEEF TENDON NOODLES! She had discovered the pocket dial from my phone to Pothead Mike and complained that it had cost her one extra dollar, then wanted to use MY phone to call Steph. She ended up using her own phone, HA HA! I had to explain the concept of a pocket dial to her... and of course vent to Steph while Mom was in my bathroom, ha ha ha. Mom even complained that I didn't have Jon and Steph in my phone or WhatsApp contacts - I don't use WhatsApp at all, but I could for video calls at some point, I guess.

Later, Mom said that "my brother's wife's sister" (just say "Auntie Kwai") is going to be living with them for a couple of months since she lost her low-cost housing in the move from BC to Ontario, and she can't get used to life over there. She also told me redundant stuff about Maria Tam who just died from lung cancer, some missionary friend Winnie who will be staying with them (from July 12) for a week or so after they get back from Toronto on July 4, and how Harmony supposedly wants me to help with the kids when they're away from June 18 for the Oratorio Society concerts with some Hong Kong chorus. Well, I'll wait till Harmony actually says something to me about it first before I commit.

The conductor of the Oratorio Society is named Kemuel, and the associate conductor is named Neville?! One of the youth singers is named Jermyn Wong?! The overall concert was all right, I suppose. Lots of Psalms, lots of music - I saw Auntie Catherine around the washroom when I went. When I looked at the program, I saw Libby's name, so I had to tell Vania about it on Facebook. Mom suspiciously wondered why I was online, and asked if my mobile data was off - yes, of course. I did not help her get online during a lull or the intermission, ha ha ha. I got home at 10:15 or so, which is fine.

Random stuff from Mom and Dad: A white JESSICA winter jacket, Lipton chicken noodle soup which expires in March 2020, a thin orange fish-themed 2012 tote bag, a Zanyah Eco Spa Treatment "Your Reinvigoration" body cream pouch, a Zanyah Eco Spa "Your Tenderness" body cream pouch, a random Home Depot plastic bag, a random white bra, a thin black DKNY shirt, a thin dark blue-green summer scarf, a thin blue Baleno fall coat, and a random pair of greying white and blue thin socks.

A random pair of white and grey thin socks, a pink clothes hanger, a Chong Lee Market plastic bag, a Wing-on Incorporated paper bag, Nosh and Co. shortbread cookies which expire in December, a thin purple Ardene shawl with holes in it despite the price tag still being attached, a random pair of thin purple socks, a small pair of thin black panties, a thin frilly Van Heusen pale blue shirt with roses on it, one black fuzzy mitten, and one dark blue fuzzy mitten.

Nosh and Co. premium artisanal shortbread cookies!

Nosh and Co. Munch Madness cheddar and sour cream chips!

Vanessa and baby Cassidy! / Salty cream matcha BBT Coco! / Food birthstones!

2019-05-29T21:57:54Z

After COFFEE TIME, I hung out with Vanessa and baby Cassidy, weathering a ten-minute Facebook glitch in the meantime where it wouldn't work. They got here at 12:05, and we were on our way to R and H House in Lansdowne Mall. We talked about crazy friends, Tamara, Jen, abuse, Heather, how it's nobody's business if she's pregnant or not, car accidents, leaving her TD bank card in the bank machine, taking things TO GO instead of the alternative (I got braised beef noodles and dumplings as a combo meal), tray messiness, and Cassidy being observant.

Later, we checked out THE BEST SHOP nearby, which was nothing special, especially for a Chinese dollar store. Then after dealing with slow drivers and pedestrians alike, plus construction woes, we finally made it to Coco Bubble Tea at Blundell Centre. I didn't mind going in separately because she didn't want to deal with taking Cassidy in and out. At least I finally found a menu on the counter that I could actually read! I got a NEW salty cream matcha bubble tea with pudding, which isn't as bad as it sounds - Vanessa got a fresh grapefruit yakult, and wondered if white people even know what yakult is! Haha, I don't know. She drove me home and I got in at 1:50 - yup, it was good to see each other again! It's understandable that her brain is all over the place!
