US grad trip IV

Day 12: San Francisco

lunch at the Fisherman's Wharf

gary, our bus driver for the entire trip

the golden gate bridge!! it was damn chilly

limousines can be spotted so frequently in SF

while waiting for the sunset cruise

on board the sunset cruise!

the famous Alcatraz

the wind was so cold that i was wearing 2 layers of warm clothing

sea-lion or seal i couldn't really tell but it came on board our cruise just when it is docking. so cute right

and the day ended with a hot clam chowder and beef stew from Boudin Sourdough Cafe

Day 13: San Francisco

Breakfast at starbucks..

they have omelette sandwiches over there! it's even nicer than mac breakfast

Shopping at Union Square.

3 levels of Forever 21!

Bagfuls of shopping spree!!

celebrated larling's birthday back in the room.. spent my last few bucks on the birthday cake and i had to borrow few dollars from him for his last pressie. haha. hope u like it larling!!

Day 14: Home Sweet Home

at San Francisco Intl Airport

i really had a great deal of fun in the States.. esp in Vegas and San Francisco. although i dun gamble and i'm not a alchoholic, i stil love Vegas because of its beautiful buildings along the Strip. wanted to catch some of the Las Vegas shows or strip shows but they are so damn expensive. =(

oooh.. can't bear to leave but i'd still prefer spore over america. i just feel more comfy with asian food and asian people.

i'll never forget those lovely moments and these photos will be my memory for a long long time. cheers to america

relaxed days

to update on the macRitchie treetop walk.. it rained as we were about to reach the bridge!! was drenched like a poor chicken and our shoes were muddy like shit. there was lighting and thunder and we were so scared that it might just struck us while we cross the 30m-long bridge. we were feeling so vulnerable at the top and open while the thunder keep cracking. the ranger told us not to run across the bridge but heck it! i didn't even get the chance to pause for a moment to enjoy the scenery. i think we spent only 30 secs on the bridge? that's why larling's mum suggest that we go again this thurs! and did i forget to mention that his mum is damn fit?

today was 206 clique outing without spencer. we met for lunch then had a game of pool before watching harold & kumar. that show was freaking comical!! and that's the first time i heard the words "fuck you" so rampantly in a movie. haha. my fav part was the recitation of the lame yet sweet (maths) poem..

I’m sure that I will always be

A lonely number like root three

The three is all that’s good and right,

Why must my three keep out of sight

Beneath the vicious square root sign,

I wish instead I were a nine

For nine could thwart this evil trick,

with just some quick arithmetic

I know I’ll never see the sun, as 1.7321

Such is my reality, a sad irrationality

When hark! What is this I see,

Another square root of a three

As quietly co-waltzing by,

Together now we multiply

To form a number we prefer,

Rejoicing as an integer

We break free from our mortal bonds

With the wave of magic wands

Our square root signs become unglued

Your love for me has been renewed

-David Kleinberg

Any gal upon hearing this would probably just say yes?

After movie, larling brought us to a place where we can play board/card games for free, though drinks weren't free but they were inexpensive. great place to go next time.

playing monopoly with the monopoly queen was a wrong choice. see how happy stella is.. lol

=)

blading is tiring

great weather today to go east coast park.. it was a lil gloomy but luckily it didnt pour down on us. the past few days have been freaking hot and humid, and i feel like i'm in a sauna even at home. blading is really a good form of exercise.. i think tonight i'll have to hang up my legs. lol. i've to thk larling for teaching me how to blade properly.

where's the driver? =)

are you gg backward or forward?

shall conquer MacRitchie tree top tml!! =)

a date with ma bestie

had a lovely day with cheryl.. now that it's holiday, i would have more time to meet up with her. so dated her today after her work and went window shopping at TM before catching Dance of the Dragon. i was expecting some superb dancing from either fann or the korean guy. but oh my!! it was not only boring but the movie had minimal dancing. i thought this movie is supposed to be a dance film. how disappointing. felt so cheated.

dinner at ding tai feng.

to digress a lil.. my tulips sprang big time! it grew out of the wrappers by at least 10cm! didn't know that tulips have such immense growing power. haha so cute.

this was at day 1

..day 2
