The groupAlthough we have all gone on separate paths after high school, its great that we can still find time every year to get together and just catch up and rekindle old relationships that have faded over the years. Its what the holidays are all about.
Thursday: I had thanksgiving dinner with my dads side of the family. We went to my aunts house in Alameda. Almost all of my cousins showed up which rarely happens. I got to catch up with my cousin Kristen. She's probably my closest cousin and we talked for a while. We don't hang out much but when we do, its always great. I killed her in guitar hero. No surprise there. lol
Saturday: Saturday was the all day sports turkey tournament. When Stan told me about this I was so excited. I was anticipating this for weeks. I went into this tournament, thinking that our team of me, Lam, Amitoj, Stan, Billy, Daniel, Arnel, Henry, and big Jeff would dominate. Boy was I wrong. We got slaughtered in every category. First part of the tourny was ultimate frisbee. I had never played before and I thought the game would be pretty wack but it turned out to be pretty fun. We lost 10-3 in the first game and like 8-5 in the second game. Suprisingly, that was the sport we were most competitive in. Consequently, that doesn't bode well for the rest of our events.
The next event was flag football. The first game was against Tino, Frankie, Anthony Sao, Mike Biggs and every other football player in Newark. It was over before it started. The score was like 70-0. We finally had enough and decided to call the game lol. The next game was a nail biter. We lost 30-14 lol. There was some extra curricular activities going on after that game. Our team and there team got into it. It was mainly Stan and some white dude on there team. I could see this coming the whole game. There team was talking hella trash to us and the arguing and bickering was inevitable.
After everything cleared up we had a bye and then basketball came along. I was most excited for this because I felt that our team had more contol of the outcome of the game. This was our sport. We were getting killed lol. We sort of resembled the Oklahoma Thunder or shall I say it...the Golden State Warriors. However, this would ring true if we had any sort of scoring. We had the defense of the warriors and the offense of the sf giants. Yeah, it was that bad. We basically stunk of the joint. We didn't get to finish this debacle of a game because the team we got into it w/ earlier got into it w/ my brother and his team. The host just ended up calling it a day.
We were left winless. We were the ONLY team not to win a single game. Albeit, we got robbed in our second ultimate frisbee game. The ref cheated us out of a score. Oh well, all in all it was a fun day minus all the trash talking. it was fun to be in the relm of competition with your boys.
After that I went to Milpitas to have a late thanksgiving dinner w/ my moms side of the family. I've never ate that much in my life. I had the fattest stomache ache and I had a date w/ the bathroom for like 30 minutes. lol. Later that night, after Milpitas, I hung out with Maria. She came by, picked me up, and we drove to birch. We just chilled on the swings and caught up on life for about 2 hours. It was great seeing her after about 2 months? She's a breath of fresh air. It was a pleasent way to end the day
It was a great day over all and a nice way to end my thanksgiving break.
