Everybody's still up until now. It's already 2am and I can still feel the everyone's energy at home. That's because it's a holiday, August's civic holiday. I decided to videochat with my girlfriend. She was wondering why I was still up this late. Actually she always wonders. Well, today's not that different, but I told her that we're staying up because of the holiday. We talked about random stuff again until it's 4am and I decided to go to sleep.
We're still up talking about the new life event. We've announced to our friends in Facebook boyfriends and girlfriends with our relationship change. However, she wrote the date as July 1, not August 3. But the truth is I asked her out on her birthday, July 14. That's a lot of dates, eh? Anyway, it felt like we've rocked our friends with such news.
Since it's a holiday and I slept late, I didn't get up right away. I got up when my cousin texted me and asked me what we're going to do tonight. I told him that we're going to capture nature scene. We left the house at 6pm and went to the riverside first. We filmed the Red River, and then the Esplanade Bridge. I called my brother and asked him if he wanted to join the photoshoot, but he said that he'll think about it. I think they're resting from their Vancouver trip.
We drove to Kildonan Park next. We reached there at 7am and did some photoshoot and filmed still-scenes on the flowerbeds. I called my brother again if he's interested and he said maybe next time. The park wasn't really crowded, but we had a hard time shooting without the cars passing by.
We weren't finished yet and then we drove to the Assiniboine Park afterwards. We reached Assiniboine around 8pm and there was still daylight. After going to the washroom first, we filmed another shot of the river and a crowd over the bridge. Then we took different photos of flowers in the park garden. The daylight was fading and we called it a wrap.
Picked up auntie from work, but I told them that I was hungry. I asked my other cousin M if he wanted to eat out, and he said yes. Well, since they're with me, and they were looking at me, I said it was my treat. I said I'll treat them with congee. But it turned out that it was a different congee treat that I agreed on. I ordered Sea Food fried rice, Chicken Congee, Shrimp with Spicy Salts, and Sea Food noodles. We didn't go home just yet, as I was craving for Iced Cappuccino afterwards and so we drove to Tim's late night.
On our way home, my cousin S called and she was asking if we're up for outing, a roadtrip per se. She said she wanted to go to Rushing River. Little did she know that she was on speakerphone and that she didn't know that all three of us we're listening in. My cousin K confirmed that it was more than a 200km drive there. My cousin S said that she really wants to go this weekend. I said okay out loud and she got surprised; well she was talking to my cousin K and they're close to each other and so she spoke differently with her own lingo. I asked how much gas money do we need and she said $50. I just told them that we'd think about it. I don't know what'll happen. But $50 isn't much for me considering you have 200+ km worth of sight seeing plus the roadtrip experience plus the sight you'll see on your destination.
