wow.. and yet i'm surprised again..

ud think that parents usually plan everything way ahead of time.. well apparently my parents don't work that way.. hmm.. ???

so i was suppose to go home for thanksgiving weekend to have thanksgiving dinner with my brother and my dad...

haha.. yesterday nite my mom calls long d from hk and is like your dad's going to hk.. i'm like huH?

my dad apparently is goign to hk for a weekend.. wuts up with that??
he's leaving friday ntie and comin back on monday.. huh?

so i guess that leaves me all alone this weekend.. my brother and i obviously aren't gonna bother to get together for dinner.. im not even sure if he's coming down from ottawa before monday..

i guess this kinda works out.. i was thinking of excuses that i could give my dad in regards to why we couldn't have thanksgiving dinner till sunday..

im getting back friday afternoonish..
and then i'm going DT with some high skewl friends later that nite.. into saturday morning..

and then girls nite in/out with my girly girls on saturday nite...

sunday.. well i guess no thanksgiving dinner for me.. or maybe i should go mooch dinner off my aunt.. hmm thats an idea

leaving monday afternoonish for windsor.. after a yummy brunch with D

on another note.. this is the 5th holiday/important event that i've celebrated with a lack of parents..

1st: christmas 2004.. my parents left to go to some place.. can't remember
2nd: mothers day with no mother.. my mom was in hk
3rd: fathers day with no father.. i was in hk.. he was home
4th: parents anniversary.. me, miranda and mom in hk.. ivan and dad in canada
5th: thanksgiving!!!!!

wuts with all this separation stuff anyway.. from what it seems.. i dont really think we're gonna have "family" holiday celebrations anymore.. i mean.. the last time we did ANYTHING together all 5 of us.. was last summer.. we had a road trip out to the Atlantic Coast with my grandmother..

then miranda left for hk.. so lacking her presence in birthdays, thanksgiving, new years, christmas, the works.

then my mom goes to hk for like all but 2 months of this year so far.. she left in feb around my reading week.. and then came back like 2 weeks ago.. for 2 weeks and she left again..

and now my brother is leaving for hk too.. so it seems that my family is all broken up..

i mean.. i've always thought that stupid family gatherings were annoying and wut not.. but i guess when u no longer have the opportunity to have these sorts of events.. u kinda miss them and feel left out.. i dunno thats just me
