amtrak

i'm leaving!! i'm leaving!!! (but the time not comfirm yet!)

you know why??? cause i'm taking amtrak.. that's why!

i just learned a new term ------------ 100% late

amtrak, is this all-american train that travels around the country. the reason why we are taking it is because mark wants to experience the ultimate american train ride. it takes about 18 hours from here to san jose VS 3 hours by plane. hai... i'm a damn freaking good girlfriend man!!! to me, time is precious and is money!!! but since he wants to take it, then i will accompany him. anyway try once better than never try before.

okay anyway... i have been analyzing the arrival pattern of the train for a while and seriously, it is ALWAYS late. on average, it will be about 3 hours late BUT bloodly hell, yesterday amtrak called and told us that our train will be 9 hours late. i am supposed to leave at 11:59pm today and now its estimated arrival time is 9:30am the next day. because i hate delay and i'm a person that needs to have alot of backup plans (my the other motto in life is to always leave yourself yi tiao ho lo)

haha so i have checked ALL amtrak train and bus rides from los angeles to san jose and also from santa barbara to san jose (just in case i need to switch my itinery around). also, how much is the car rental from los angeles to san jose and also greyhound buses.

moral of the story: if you have a friend who is most of the time late, DON'T COMPLAIN.. it is better that 100% late.

anyhow, i'm really excited.. come to think about it.. leaving at 9:30am is better than leaving at 3+ in the morning. i can sleep till shiok shiok at home first than enjoy the scenary when i take the train in the morning.

CALIFORNIA, here i come AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
