trip to US (:
heyyy okay im finally back from the US! haha it really took my mind off school and stuff so that was good. :D hmm i dont have the pix yet though! anw i mostly did shopping here. :\ went to San Francisco first. we took the bay cruise and saw the golden gate bridge and the Alkatraz (sp?) aand it was really cold there. about 15 deg? brrrr. anw, i stayed at the York Hotel and frankly, it wasnt as good as i expected. :\ but all in all SF was beautiful. and the people who live there can really stay fit cos its on uneven ground.
so after SF, we flew over to Dallas Fort Worth, Texas! and we met my dad there. :D and stayed with him in his suite. (sounds sooo cool but its only a one-room suite. i slept in the pull-out bed,which is surprisingly cosy and comfy!) and every night, they would charge their phones in the living room (where im sleeping) and their phones would suddenly ring in the middle of the night (ass) and i would storm into their room and put their phones there so that it would wake them up. :D but eventually my mom turned off her phone at night. my dad didnt give a shit. :\
anyway, there's a huge mall next to our hotel. Grapevine Mills? aand its so much better than most of orchard rd. in my opinion.;D and i just shopped still i grew sick of it. oh and i had pho!<3333
when my dad finished his uh course thing, we drove to Wichita! whoo. it took a whopping 6 hours. and when we reached, there was a severe thunderstorm warning in effect and there was a possibility of some tornado taking place so i was really freaked out. and i could actually feel the car rocking. and the traffic lights were all swaying? :S so we dove to this chinese cafe. and we were the only ones driving on that road, the rest were all driving away. so it was quite scary. but we made it!:D
anyway, the next day, i went to Rachael's house! omg i havent seen her in like SEVEN years. i feel so OLD! yeah so we just caught up with each other and omg. her dog's still as cute as ever. though she sheds a LOT and is seven or nine years old. :\ i think she remembers me! D: cos she was wagging her tail when she saw me. :DDDD anyway, i met Tina, her curent bestie. gawd i felt like she's my substitute.
so Tina, Rachael and i went Town East to shop! omg i just realised the first letters of our names are all consecutive. wtv, anw
they can really shop. they spend like at least 15min in one shop. and they start trying on whatever clothes and actually buy them! D: they're like pro. haha. so they were shopping for their first day of sch attire (already!) which was some party like a rockstar theme. HAHA and they brought me to this emo punk shop called Hot Topic and it was really O.O they sold quite cool things. :D like graphic tees and skull ice moulds. but they also sell uh belly studs and the earrings for the huge ear holes type. :S yikes.
ANYWAY, i bought stuff from Hollister! and aeropostale. hahah. and they spray their clothes and it smells really good. :D haha.
after that we went to catch Kung Fu Panda! :D at Warren Theater and the theater was really good. haha. as in the show felt almost 3D cos of the screen quality thing thing. hahah. and we kept bumping into Rachael's friends
everywhere. and she'd just go and hug, no, jump on every guy friend she meets. lol. OH SHE CAN DRIVE! and she's like 15! D: like how unfair is that?!
haha so she drove Tina home aand then we went to her house. :D where we chilled in the basement and slept there. at 3am. hahah we were too busy talking to ppl online. :\
the next morning i followed her to work. ahah and she just makes drinks. :D and not much ppl patronise the cafe so her job's realy slack. :D anw then we drove back to Dallas where we did more shopping.
and omg we wanted to buy the
iPhone butbutbut it was freaking out of stock! they just HAD to choose this time to improve it to v2. -.- PFFFT.
ahhh! kay i'll upload and scan the pix!:D whooo. and i hate the plane ride mannn! i sat till my butt ached and it still does. :S
