Decided to stay until 15th Dec

Walking on the beach side in SB with Tracy, suddenly thought why should I go back to HK all in a hurry... when there is nothing I m going back for... ya... I have lost my job offer in HK coz they are an US company and stopped head counting due to the bad economy of US, if I didn't mention... um, anyway... so I decided to stay here until the end of my Visa in mid December... and then I can have a bit more time and money to have my travel in Japan :D... yea yea yea~~~

Surprisingly cool The Raconteurs concert!

Thanks Darius for asking me to the show!!!!! yea ye ayea... I know they are famous but I really never heard of their name before this :P but of cause I know the key member, Jack White, the one who also play in The White Strips... hahaha... he is kinda cool but I m not a big fans to his kinda musci.. anyway... he is pretty cool :D... The most unexpected thing is their supporting band is THE KILLS!!!!!!!! damn.... and I didn't know before going there!!!!!! woooo... haha.... Jamie Hince is just simply super cool... love them....
The show was played in Santa Barbara Bowl... and I love the venue so sooo much.... It's probably the best venue in the world! It's an open space, medium size (can probably fit in 5000-10000 ppl I guess) venue. Very casual place which people can just walk around in the middle of the show.... It's just amazingly beautiful when you look up to the sky... It's like all the stars are enjoying the show with us :D:D haha....
Back to the show, it is just simply cool... even though this is not the kinda music I love the best... Live is just different... I did enjoy every single second there :D:D ho ho hoo....~~~~~

Meeting Euniz and Yannick in LA!!!

Euniz came to LA with Yannick all the way from London to visit me!!! :D:D haha... soooo happy happy... ~~~~~~ We've done almost everything tourise would do in LA ho ho ho~~~ We had a super good weekend there and will show photos here very soon :D:D...

Bye, Mr Lee......

Finally it's the time to say good bye to Mr Lee today lo T_T.... I've sold mr lee to 2 Norway girls.. I made $100 from that! :D:D

and then I heard a bad news from them 2 days after I'd given mr lee to them, that they had broken down in 50 miles away... -_-.... and the funny thing is they left the car there... called me and ask for a full money back~~~~~ And keep calling saying I sold them a broken car -_-.... but the thing is we went for a car checking together before they were buying my car and my car passed the smog test perfectly... um... well... anyway... I refused to give them money back for sure... and they gave up calling me lo... um.. but Mr Lee.... is just dying in 50 miles away from me................... but he's always in my heart :P lalallalalalal~~~~

San Francisco

29AUG Everyone just keep telling me how a nice the city is, how good the foods in SF, blabalbalbablbala.... haha.... finally I'm there, after a 6 hours journey from SB to LA to SF... kinda a waste of time... but its good that I left the office at 3:30 :D but arrived at 9 sth, even slower than driving... :S I saved about $100 for the ticket indeed... but doesnt sounds worthy at all lerh..

10:15p SF Airport



Gene pick me up from airport... and started my SF trip on the lovely Friday night :D... Super foggie in SF the first night I've been there... It's not as cold as I thought... kinda a good temperature really :D It was basically a preview of my later trip with Tracy in SF :D haha... it's nice that Gene just drive me everywhere which save us a lot of time...

30AUG



The 2nd day, we went out to have a blunch in Cartro with Curt ^__^ He is a ABVitnamiese.. very typical American... Just keep talking talking and talking in a very American way...I thought we gonna chat for longer but anyway... we then walked a bit around Cartro, a gay area in SF... By the way, the first impression of SF to me is a very gay city really (or you can say a very gay friendly city)... once I step out of the gate, I could tell the different of this city from LA or SB... anyway... Cartro is nice That's pretty similar to some streets in Europe. little shops... kinda quite but a lot of things happening... the stuff in Diesel is surprisingly cheaper then in HK and London... :D seems that I should buy some next time (funny, they only have a few shops in Cali!!! and only in LA, SF and SJ)~~

3:00p MoMA



With the free ticket from Gene's friend :), the MoMA in SF is nicer than in LA in a way. Ssomething quite interesting there :) And I m impressed with their cool architecture! they are showing an exhibition of Chinese comtempory artist... They are also showing the Frida one but I've seen that in London already... so I didn't spend time on that :P I mean her life is always more interesting then her works to me... btw, they put a painting from Picasso in the photography exhibition room.... interesting huh? and thats the only non-photo piece in the room...

4:30p Jewish Comtempory Museum



It is a surprisingly cool museum! the building is already cool enough to pull you in :D and the pieces inside are quite different from other museums... well you might not like them but you might not find them anywhere else... And they have a very cool room which surprised me a lot... go and check it out!! :D



5:30p Sausalito


Crossed the Golden Gate Bridge we when to a very nice area by the sea... kinda tourise spot I guess but a silent place which I like :) I've had a peanut butter icecream, some roasted peanuts, and a peanut candy!!! very heavy~~ haha... I love them tho..

7:00p Nuel's home (sorry if I spell your name wrong :P)
Just relax and had a little nap before dinner~~ ho ho ho~~~ I love her flat :D:D its so comfy and clean...~

8:30p Hotpot dinner with Gene and friends
It is called Japanese ShabuShabu but obviously thats not that... -_-... well reasonable price with reasonable amount and quality of food and I just prefer my own cook more maybe :P
