yep.
Our usual trip to Frisco. My bro and I can be unofficial tour guides and start charging people haha. So our first stop was the Golden Gate Bridge; it was cold and windy like always. We walked around Pier 39 and ate clam chowder again. I was hoping we could go shopping at Union Square and buy some custard tarts in China Town, but we ran out of time. Yea, nothing new, but it was exciting. Hah I never get tired of this place =D


I had no idea the Academy of Art is across from Pier 39.

Boudin

I don’t know why we never went here before; it’s just right across from McDonnald’s. They make animals out of bread! IMO their clam chowders are a lot better than the ones at Fisherman’s Wharfs.

This guy was demonstrating how to carve pumpkins at Pier 39. Koo stuff

I wish I have a red or yellow Vespa.

"Lyrically it’s about the changing relationship between two old friends. People that haven’t seen each other in a long time, coming together, and then drifting apart again.
Have you ever known someone for so long that even though it’s been years, when you hang out, you can’t help but slip right back into how you were when you grew up together as teenagers?
You want them to be as they were, as we were, but who they are now competes with your memory, and for some reason it’s dissapointing to you. In this case, it’s a fall from grace in the sense that one person is involved in something the other believes is ‘Not Right’.
Sometimes it seems they both know it, but still nothing changes. How can you express concern to someone who seems to like being where they are regardless of whether it is good for them or not? It’s never your place to say it anyway, so you put it in a song instead
I like the way the music sort of disintegrates at the end, frustrated and tired and not really resolving itself, other than to just stop trying."
Is there a better way to put it? This is so predestrian in life that it’s a quite sad. At the same time it makes you realize your friends right now may be strangers to you the next day. In a positive way, I guess you can just take it easy with your friendships. Cherish it but don’t become too attach that it’s hard to let go. Isn’t it a bit discouraging? I remember it was really hard for me to say goodbye to my friends when I had to move in 7th grade. My parents kept telling that I’ll meet new friends elsewhere. I had to move again in 8th grade and had to leave my friends. Another same old speech. "You’ll make new friends in high school." They were right. Begining of freshmen year, I stopped letting the little things get in the way of my friendships. I pretty much stopped caring. If this is how my friendships will be (good or bad), I’ll look at it the same way. Hah, easy said than done, but it makes life a bit easier. Well, I shall leave it as that, talking about too much is somewhat a contradiction.
Anyways, the main point of this post is that I can’t stop listening to Details Hurt My Mind’s soundtrack, and Not Right is currently stuck in my head. =)

Gahh, last saturday last saturday…haha if I can recall what happened.
I woke up at 4:30am and Lena picked up me. We got to the Capitol at 6:30am, we were like little kids running around the capitol when it was still pitch dark haha. We signed in and got our purple volunteer shirts. After we got some Kudos and croissant from the Cafe, Julianne, Lena, and I had to wait for the sponsors to arrive. Haha it was like a competion to escore as many sponsors as we could.
In the process of writing…

Yesterday my brother dropped me off at Lena’s house at 1pm. It was my first time there and by the looks of her house, it made mine looked like a total mess ahha. We made microwavable burgers and thin crust pizza for lunch and later baked a bunch of cookies. Yea, this reminds me of someone xD. Anyways, who would have thought drawing would be so difficult? It took us a good 4-5 hours just to come up with something. It was ridiculous really.

Today was the 15th Annual Heart Walk and this was my very first kc event last year. I woke up at 4:30am, and my bro took Lena and I to William Land Park. (This was also my first time being project captain =D) It was still dark when we got there and we just helped people set up tables and reload boxes. Melody, Liz, and Maricela came to walk help haha. Julianne, Lena, and I were assigned to help at the ice cream table right next to the stage. I gotta give props to the ice cream men. You seriously need muscle for this job haha. The guy just dropped off four different flavors of Vic’s ice cream and a mini fridge and left haha. At first, not a lot of people came by for ice cream since it was still early in the morning (8-9ish). After people came back from the walk, there was a long ass line at the ice cream table haha. It was so hectic we called for backups. There was at least eight of us who worked on the ice cream. People went crazy for the mocha and chocolate mint. I seriously never tried chocolate mint before; I wish i did then. The popular ice creams were harder to scoop because they were still very frozen, so that made our job very exhausting. We also did a lot of walking around, spinning the wheels, and collecting free items. Everyone got 10+ Jamba Juice gift cards, sun protection wipes, foods, drinks, etc. Around 12, we began clearing the VIP section and putting down the tables and chairs. Melody took all four ice cream boxes! lmao. We were planning to walk to HK Wok to eat, but we decided to cross the street and eat at a burger joint. Ford Burger - highly recommended. Then my bro picked us up and we came back to my house.
Sorry, no pictures.
Lena and I will likely start our club soon or some day. If not, our own business. Haha I seriously don’t know how this going to work, but we’re pretty zealous about it.
Last Saturday we went to the Walk for Diabetes at the Capitol for key club. We had to be there by 6am, so Julianne picked me up around 5:30 -_-. We were the first ones there and it was still dark outside & quite windy. We carried tents, tables A LOT of tables, chairs, boxes, etc. It was tedious but after all that we had nothing to do haha. The kitchen provided bagels with cream cheese but they were hard as rocks haha. Yet, they were still tasty. Julianne and I spent some time folding/handing out shirts for the volunteers.

My brother’s idea of fun is to have a nature hike.
At 10am, my brother and I picked up his gf and headed to Vallejo. I’d prefer going to San Francisco instead by they’re closing this weekend for reconstruction (I think). The drive to San Rafael was long and dull; nothing to be excited about. When we reached Point Reyes, we stopped by the Lil’ Shorty Food place. We bought bread, tuna salad dressing, and duck pate. Point Reyes or Marin or __ (this place seems to have multiple names, I’m not quite sure which is which) is a little tourist town where all the little stores are next to each other with a mini market.
