Good Friday/Orthodox Holy Friday/Astronauts Day/Spring Festival (North Carolina)

Thank You God for Good Friday. I was feeling too tired to go for the SV Good Friday outreach, even though it would have been way more fun than what I did at home. I'm quite irritated with my dad now. We were supposed to out for dinner, so that I could buy an MP3 player and some CDs, but he spent the whole evening working on his laptop. What I can't stand is how he made it sound like my fault for not sending the signal that I really wanted to go out. This happens every damn public holiday. Heck, I'm just going to buy the CDs myself tomorrow. Parents can be a real pain sometimes. Sigh, I can just feel the blisters on my thumbs and index fingers waiting to erupt. Damn those tuning knobs on my guitar, had them oiled in the morning. The strings are adjusting to the tension, it's just the first and sixth strings that are going flat. Why are public holidays always so mundane for me? Shiqi pointed out during Mathematics lecture that there aren't any more "real" public holidays this term, because they all fall on weekends. That sucks big time!
