Happy Birthday Faraz! (July 22) Daaamn another year, another entry. I don't suppose there's any point in me telling you that you are one of my best friends, that we've been through so much together, both good and bad, and that we'll end up being bros for life. You and I will be those old guys you see on the road driving a beaten up cadillac (it'll have power windows) and hitting on every girl in sight. Haha I can't wait. Happy Birthday Bro, and thanks for everything.

Happy Birthday Misun! (July 23) Wow bud, wow. I don't think I'll ever manage to get over how quickly we became so close. Without doubt you are one of my best friends and I'm thankful everyday for having such a wonderful person like you in my life. I'm not sure what type of monkey I'd be without you by my side, but I'm glad I don't have to ever worry about that. Cause you know when Faraz and I are old and hitting on girls, we're gona need someone to gross out and YOU'LL be there, now won't you? ;) Happy Birthday Hon, hope you enjoy your day!

Faraz's party was some good times. It was nice seeing everyone again. Hmm.. work is interesting to say the least. Kids definitely say the craziest things sometimes. I remember when I first started working, my boss decided to re-name me since the kids have difficulty pronuncing "Prashant." I always told the kids to call me Bob. Don't ask where it's from , I just figured it's easier for the kids to say it. You should see the look on some of the parent's faces when I tell them my name. Parent: "So what's your name?" me: "Bob" Parent:"..oh...uhh son this is your instructor bo...bob" Priceless. Anyway my boss said that Bob is a retarted name and it's completely unoriginal. She decided to name me "Shanti." I heard that and thought to myself, "Are you serious? Shanti is an indian feminine name. Ehh whatever." So I walked into the classroom and this indian kid walks up to me and asks, "Hey what's your name?" Me: "...Shanti..." Kid:" Oh wow that's my mom's name!" Me: *embarrased*"oh...um..that's nice.."

Oh, and a big CONGRATULATIONS to Malary for becoming an AUNTIE!
