sun on my shoulders.

but they got sunburned.




I went to an annual festival over the weekend called PIFA. It's when Pacific Islanders gather in San Diego to celebrate in music, dance, food, and culture. It's like the same thing every year, but I love it... I ate a huge box of Guam food<3


ribs, chicken, red rice, pickled cucumber and daigo, and chicken kelaguen

My summer is officially over. I had my first class yesterday. I took classes with this prof. like 4 or 5 times in a row. It's boresville, but I prefer familiarity so it's okay.

The wedding in Seattle was beautiful. I love Seattle... it's so refreshing. I miss it. It's kind of like SF but cleaner. I seem to like cold cities and warm islands - how ...weird. The people that I encountered/observed were incredibly nice. The bicyclist guy riding his bike gave me a smile as he rode by. even the security at the airport was super cool. future potential living place. UGHHHH CALIFORNIA.


Seattle is so green.

Ivar's. The calamari literally tasted like homeless man. The hummus was good...but the server guy took my plate away before I could finish...arghh! They do, however, have a delicious 75 cent cup of clam chowder. It's the same price at their airport - what a deal.

I don't know if I want to continue blogging anymore. I have noo motivation. lack of feedback is kind of sad, even though I know I shouldn't really care about stupid things like that. but gash, I'm like extremely boring duh. What can I do? Goodnight y'alls.

seattle bound

herro................ I haven't updated in a while. I've been a busy bee, working and stuff and doing huge errands in between. I flew to the Bay Area last weekend to help my mom pack my grandparents' things. Today, my mom just flew in from Oakland and she will be staying with us for like a week. However, I'm flying to Seattle tomorrow early morning so I could attend my old friend's wedding. SHE'S MY AGE! so crazy. It hasn't really hit me yet that I'm going to Seattle, WA...TOMORROW. I'm so excited! a new state that I've never been to yet. Here are some pics from the past weeks.


getting lost in San Francisco airport.


another crepe photo from Sophie's crepes in Japantown, San Francisco. I took my mom to get one. I don't think she's ever had one before. She didn't find it so special... thought it was "messy".. but ugh so good.



had a FEAST! in this restaurant in Oakland called Bay Fung Tong. OMG, this restaurant. I heard you had to get reservations like a week in advance. it was DEEELICIOUS. we couldn't finish


fruit/vegetable stands in the small Chinatown of Oakland


my grams gave me these shoes... they were trying to get rid of some her things. her stuff packed took up like 10 boxes, while my grandpa's things only took up 2! These fit me~ they look cute with stirrup leggings. kind of heavy though


back to San Diego. We had some Mexican food the first night I came back - yum yum carne asada fries.


sneak preview of what I'm going to wear at the wedding. SO EXCITE!

I'm gonna be in Seattle until Tuesday morning. Then I work again at 12 noon that day. see y'all in a week or so.
