I'm finally back to my blog! I've been really busy for the past month, so I apologize for the lack of updates. I'll start with the BIG MOVE. Haha! For those who had no clue what I'm talking about, I moved to a new home about a month ago. The new crib is still in Sunset District though. However, I moved from Inner Sunset to the Outer Sunset, which means closer to the Pacific Ocean! Woohoo! The Pacific Ocean is just 2 blocks from my new place!! How awesome is that?  On the moving day, I got Jackie, Eugene and Oscar to help me move. I had to donate 4 bags of clothing in order to lessen the load. But it was still a lot of stuff. I have way too much junk. =.=" But I just couldn't bear to donate any more of my precious clothes away!  I share the unit with 2 new roommates: Chris and Helen. Both of them are around my age. Just a tad bit older. Helen moved in to her room a lil later than me, but we finally got to meet each other. She's really friendly and nice. She loves cooking too, which is great because we get to share each of our own cooking. Her pasta salad is so good!!! By the way, Helen is a Berkeley graduate!!! Can you believe that?!  Chris was enlisted in the Navy, so he traveled a lot and was often not at home. But he's a nice guy judging from the few moments we see each other. He just recently got off from the Navy, so he is planning to go back to school. A few days after moving in, I went over to my sis's place to stay overnight. Next morning, Greg drove us to Mt. Tamalpais for breakfast since my sis recommended an inn's breakfast menu. Before we left the house, my sis suggested that we might as well go hiking in the mountain. I was not quite dressed for hiking, but I decided to go along with the idea. I had to call Mark to cancel our lunch at Borabudur(an Indonesian restaurant). I think the pictures will do the talking from here onwards.
Having my brunch. The food really was good.
Told ya I wasn't dressed for hiking. Haha!
It got really warm after a few minutes of hiking down, so I took my coat off. First layer gone!
We reached the bottom of the mountain! The white hoodie had to come off by then. Second layer gone!

We had reached back to the top of the mountain. As you can see, no pictures were taken during the hike back up. The hike going up was treacherous.
Halfway up back to the top, I had to take off my sweater. Third layer gone!

Enjoying a cup of black tea lemonade after the hike. How refreshing!
Very happy Chong sisters. The sun even peeked out of the clouds to match our happiness.  For more pictures, go to my Facebook album "Let's Take A Hike". I'm currently taking summer classes, so that I will have 6 credits done by this coming Fall semester. I should be able to graduate faster that way. I chose Intermediate Algebra for Math to meet the graduating requirement, Beginning Voice, and Beginning Ballet. It's going to a very hectic semester this whole summer. Since the semester will only be 6 weeks, everything will be crammed and taught fast. Not to mention you don't get to choose the days you want to go to college. All the courses I'm taking is every weekdays. Meaning I'll be opening the store at 4am, get off at 10am, take the train to college, and stay there for classes til 7:30pm. T_T I just had my first Math test since SPM 2 days ago. The test was easy, but I couldn't remember a thing. Get my drift? Everything I learnt in Saujana flew out of the window. XD I hope that I get a C for it at the very least. Apart from the hike and class, I had also attended the grand opening of the SalsaCrazy SF dance party, which was held at Union Square. It's awesome that they decided to use Union Square as their location because I have always wanted to dance at that place. Since I couldn't find the people that I had invited over there, I went around asking random strangers to dance. I got rejected on my first try. He said that he's waiting for his friend. What a party pooper. I came over to dance, not to watch people dance, so I looked around for others. I hit jackpot on my 2nd try though. Since then, I did not even have to ask. The guys are the one who start coming up to me for a dance.  Overall, I had so much fun. They will be holding this party every third Wednesday of a month, so I'll be looking forward to attending the one on July. |
