let this never end.

i've been enjoying myself SOOO much these last couple of days!

i love, love, love vacation time. and i'm trying to relish it before my inter semester class (read: voluntary summer school) starts in the middle of june.

on monday, there was karaoke with my uni mates. it was wild, cheesy fun, singing all kinds of mandarin pop tunes at the top of our lungs, screaming at each other and in general just being silly.

on tuesday, i proceeded to be a total bum. but i was disappointed when trev, my hip hop dance instructor didn't turn up and the gym had to cancel the class. nobody knew though and we all went home rather upset. i hope he's back next week.

on thursday, i went out for a sushi buffet with my friends. now i know all about being a naughty diabetic. because i threw away all notions of counting carbs for those two hours of bliss. white japanese rice is like, the yummiest thing on earth. i did limit my sushi intake and i refused to order any handrolls because those hold just too much rice. i enjoyed lots of the side dishes - edamame, chawanmushi and fried tofu. and throwing all caution to the wind, i had a lychee flavoured ice cream mochi for dessert. yummy!

today (friday), a few friends and i went out to get birthday and mother's day presents. i had the most delicious vegetarian minestrone soup for lunch, which was lipsmackingly healthy and chock full of zucchini, kidney beans, celery, carrot and cabbage bits. we even got new earrings! i love shopping for gifts and making people smile. i'll reveal bits of it on diabetes 365 soon, as soon as i get my camera rolling again.

tomorrow, i'll have a healthy breakfast, go for some kickboxing class action and then head to church for a friend's baptism.

which reminds me, i better go start wrapping all the gifts i need to wrap!
