roasting stuff over the fire?

The day of graduation was one helluva hectic day. After lunch at Buca's with Christy's family, April and I rushed off to Target to get medicine to ward off a looming migraine after which I rushed her home and left her in a dark room so she could try and sleep before driving over to Vy's apartment for her after-graduation get-together. I left Vy's complex after about an hour and went to go pick up BubbleBoy before going to get chicken for the bonfire we were going to. I went back to the apartment to change and then we headed out to Huntington Beach.

It was still pretty light when we got to the beach. After BubbleBoy covered the $10 parking fee for me (thanks home fry) we went to go join our friends. I think most of the people were there by the time we arrived.

I don't think that Sara is going to like this picture

I wasn't very hungry (lunch with Christy followed by snacks at Vy's) but I ate anyway because that's what I do. I think HoHo roasted a hot dog for me and I had some of Sara's potato salad.

tossing a football around

three of us at sunset

After we finished playing, we discovered that John's slipper (aka our goal) had gone missing. Turns out a couple of my teammates had buried the goal (I swear I didn't know about this) so the guys wouldn't be able to score any points. And then they couldn't find it. After combing the beach for a while, one of HoHo's co-workers finally found it.

thai elephants

Okay, so HoHo had this one co-worker from Thailand. A couple of weeks before the bonfire, HoHo and her other co-workers told her Thai co-worker that it's an American tradition for everyone to sing a song at the bonfire. The poor girl had been practicing her song (something about an elephant) ever since they told her that and actually sang it at the bonfire, hand motions and everything (when I upload the video clip you can click here to view it [elephants]).

trying to stay warm

At this point it was starting to get kind of cold, which of course means that the water is warm :) Sar and I went to check out the water and yes, it was very warm.

did i mention that irv was there?

We left the beach at around 10. Irv and Damon spent some time checking out eachother's rice rockets (IS300 and Prelude) and then we all left. I dropped off BubbleBoy and then went to go grab my stuff at the apartment before heading over to Sar's place to hang out with her, Damon, HoHo and Jason.

The end.
