my day

at long last, mark & i booked our tickets to san jose this afternoon. from aug 11 to 20, we will be traveling to monterey bay, napa valley, half moon bay and of coz san francisco. i have been to san jose and san francisco a-gazillion times so this time round, i'm going to do stuff that i have never done before and i'm going to racky the hell out of california. i'm sure that there are tonnes of interesting stuff to do in san francisco other than going to fisherman wharf, chinatown etc. hmm..in monterey bay, we are thinking of going kayaking. some wine tasting will be done in napa and maybe some hiking trips in san jose. also, definitely some shopping trips will be fitted into the schedule. oh.. i can't wait, i need to just travel and also see my family. by the way, talking about travel. mark just mentioned that we have been travelling at least once every 3 months. last dec, clifton, wenyang, mark & i were in new york & boston. in march, we went to vegas for our spring break and now, we are going to san jose. well, the reasons as to why we are going to san jose are that 1) i need to get out of here and going there is the cheapest option, 2) i can see my aunt and family. at least now, i have something to look forward to.

anyhow, i just spent the day at borders, got a t-shirt from abercrombie (is on sale!) and then went for coffee. very familiar kind of lifestyle. this is what i would normally do when i'm in singapore and also when i first came here. now, i've cut down on these activities alot already. Reasons: 1) i need some kakis to do that with me (all of them are not here anymore), 2) i used to go to abercrombie when i first came. now i don't go there much cause i find their stuff too expensive and i don't think they are really worth the money. haiya..my parents work so hard and i just don't feel right anymore in spending their money for my pleasure.
