my school ends on thursday and so starting from friday till monday is a holiday.
i dont know what to do without rachel! i love you heaps!
sooooo, on friday, there's indo welcoming party which i refuse to attend but rachel's brother, ady, begged us to go there to check out girls.
well, we have no plans for the day so why not.
so we went there and rachel and i feel soooo alienated (if thats the correct word).
we didnt knew anybody there except for a few. so we just sat under a huge tree and hangout (just the three of us).
then, along came joan and the other girls.
oh and i dont call that a party. basically it was just a "same-race-gathering" slap me if im being too rude. the word "party" was there to make it sound fun. believe me, its NOT at all.
the same-race-gathering was held in a park by pleasant hill downtown.
well, nothing happened really. its so boring. so we decided to take off and go to the other park (still in pleasant hill). the name is "hidden lake park".
so we went there and guess what?!
it was soooooooooo very beautiful. it was so big and it has huge field of brown grass (idk what its called) and huge trees and jogging treks and soccer field and of course, a hidden lake and many more.
there's one small hill we could climb and on the very top lies a wooden chair made for only a couple.
but we were small humans so rachel, ady and i sat together and took pictures.
then after that, we walk miles and miles away from the starting point, which was the bridge, and found this very cute little lake.
over there was a huge tree with a tarzan rope hanging on it. the water was clear and shallow. we were planning to go there again probably bring a floating rubber boat and just lay there all day.
the next stop was the corn field. rachel took one of the baby corn from the mother and took a bite. i tried it too. it was sweet =)
it was getting dark so we took off and went home.
we were all dirty and sweating and smelly and hungry.
after dinner, we went to sacramento straight away, rachel's old house for the weekend.
When we got there, rachel's sister, nia, was at home and she introduce herself to my mom. i met her before couple of times.
her boyfriend was sleeping upstairs. it was late so we straight away went to sleep.
The very next morning, nia, rachel, mom, nia's boyfriend (jeremy) went to the club house near by. ady got this thing in the morning so he cant come with us.
we met rachel's cousin, i forgot her name and we went swimming together.
it was fun. i did a little sunbathing, one of my favorite hobbies and i did get a little darker and then went home again, took a shower and took off again.
This time we went to downtown sacramento and visit arnold schwarzenegger's (gosh its so hard to spell his name) governor office, state capitol building. it was huge and very nice. inside was the real office and meeting rooms.
Right after that we went to old sac. which was a small town (actually a tourist attractions) of sacramento but the old version.
it was uhm.. old. people dressed like in the 20's and 30's.
women wore gowns and men wore tuxedos and big hat.
oh and the best part was the candy store. in the store, we can eat as many candy we want as long as we eat it in the store.
HAHAHAHAHAHA CANDIIIIEEEEEEES.
my favorite candy was pelon pelo rico. a mexican sour candy. really good!
here are some pictures
the rest of the day was just strollin around old sac and went to a chinese store to get food for dinner and cook it at home.
nia's boyfriend jeremy ate small green indonesian chilly (cabe rawit) for the 1st time and all of a sudden his face turns really red and drank half a gallon of gatorade, funny.
the next day, we went to arden shopping mall. i went to forever 21 and got me really nice stuff. i'll show yoo the pictures in my next post. After that, we went to marie's calender to buy a banana cream pie but we got back with disappointments 'cause it was sold out. soooooo, we got a custard pie instead. it was yuckee, cause the custard thingy was soo jellyish and eggish.
euw.
but the pie crusts are good!
so on monday, we were planning to do our homework and study at home. but you know, we kinda go to the mall first and promise to get home before sundown. and you guessed it, we went home at 8. we did a little shopping again. but it was fun though. i dont know why but i was very happy yesterday, mom rachel and i talk, laugh, jokes together. it was really fun and tiring too. we ended up sleeping at 2 to finish our homework.
its 2 50 pm right now and imma go to my nutrition class.
i miss rheza and indo peeps so much.
kisses!
