"I love you baby.."

"Can't take my eyes off you, you're just too good to be true, You'd be like heaven to touch, Oh I wanna hold you so much...ba..ba..ba..ba..I love you baby, and if it's quite alright, I need you baby to warm a lonely night.."

They are awesome. Nice, good looking singers/actors. =) Here's a big "thank you" to Ren2 for the tickets..heh heh.

Six Flags Magic Mountain rocks!

I never screamed so much in my entire life before..and I got so tanned from walking around the Magic Mountain theme park which is on a desert. But all the adrenaline pumping rides make all the screaming (and sore throat) and sun burnt worthwhile. I had the best roller coaster rides in my entire life in MM. Basically 5 of us (again!) with 2 other NTU gals chiong almost all of the mediocre and hardcore rides in the theme park. Woohoo! Awesome...it's hard to describe 'the moment' when you are a few hundred feet about ground and speeding at about 170mph! My fav rides of all: Xtreme. We took the ride right after sunset, and I can see the stars and the night view as I was going up the wheels. So nice right? Then my head goes down first. And my seat was literally dangling, flip and spin all the way...Shiok!

Xtreme

I called home yesterday. And my sis sort of blurted out the ending of Harry Potter 7th book. DARN!! Now I know who died in the end. Ggrrrr...

Summer came like cinnamon..so sweet

We went down to Santa Monica and Venice beach last week after our midterm...It's nice to be near the beach and the sea..The lifeguard house with sunset backdrop reminds me of Baywatch..haha.

And we definitely have the time of our life here...

Friday went to Downtown LA, visited Walt Disney Concert Hall, LA Convention Centre, Staples Centre (too bad Lakers not playing =( ) and Little Tokyo. Lil' Tokyo has this small Japanese Plaza where you can find all possible nihon stuff from jap food to jap manga..Felix bought the Final Fantasy Yuna figurine for less than USD20!! And we had our fill of shabu shabu..yum!!

Aunt Lai fetch us to Desert Hill Premium Factory Outlet for some shopping. We end up shopping more than we budgeted!! Sigh~~ All things here are cheap cheap and cheap. And is ArmaniEx, Guess, Fossil, Levis ($9.99)..how can one NOT shop? And the three gay buddy shop more "xiong" than me lor! Now how am I going to fit all those six jeans in my luggage??? Hmm..

Chealsea + Universal Studios

Last week Chealsea Football team came for their practise at UCLA..well, I'm not a big soccer fan but I still tag along with the guys...heard they are here to build up their fan base in the United States (cuz majority of Asians support ManU!) and I think they are having a friendly match against LA Galaxy (the "Beckham" team"..)today at Santa Monica. So, a group of us walk down to the football field, and the first soccer celebrity we saw is Ashley Cole. He's on a golf cart, and Lionel chased after him for a signature...Cole managed to grab Lionel's pen and he asked the cart driver to stop but the stupid driver just wouldn't stop. #%*&! In the end, Cole had to throw back Lionel's marker pen, which lended on the floor..poor marker...
Then we all rushed to another stadium with our FREE adidas Chealsea FC football..! Yay, I managed to score Frank Lampard's signature, OMG he is sssooo handsome!! Other signatures include the club head coach Jose Mourinho, Didier Drogba, Scott Sinclair and Saloman Kalou. Yay, even tough I don't really know them, but it feels so good to stand face to face with cute football players and get their signature!!

Watched Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix last Friday. Hmmm not as good as I expected lor..lots of loops and scene transition is not good. I still prefer reading the book. After HP, we being the kiasu and cheapskate bunch, movie hopped the whole day! hehe!

Saturday went to Universal Studios! Fun, fun and fun! Love the Jurassic Park and the Mummy rides...and the best would be Universal Studio tour! The most memorable studio set would be Wisteria Lane, Fairview from Desperate Housewives. I recognised Gabrielle, Bree, Susan and Lynette houses..so cute and pretty! Those Wisteria Lane houses are real with furnitures inside! Too bad they are not filming now..or else we all would be able to see the housewives! The best set would be from the War of the Worlds. Boeing 747 split into half right in font of me. Wow.

Ok. I am having too much fun here. Gotta study for tomorrow test. Again.

PS: Krispy Kreme doughnuts are sinfully delicious! Thank you my dear Liren!!

San Francisco + Disneyland + Harry Potter!!!

OK my dear sister if you're reading this..yeap i'm doing fine here and i didn't forget your pressie..hehe. Been travelling a lot for the past 2 weeks.
Went to the beautiful San Francisco 2 weeks ago. It's really cold in San Fran, I need to wear at least three layers of clothes to keep me warm. But the beauty of Fisherman's Wharf, Golden Gate, the pretty Victorian houses by SF bay, the seafood and the beautiful sunset by the bay makes it all worth it. And of cuz, I got someone by my side to keep me warm throughout my stay in San Fran...haha. Thank you Liren for the gloves. I am blessed. Well, SF speciality; thick,goey clam soup in sourdough bread. Lots of sea gulls by the bay. And OMG, Alcatraz Island prison. Only can see from afar, cuz ferry tics totally sold out. =( All in all, the reminiscence of this SF trip put a smile on my face :D
San Fran trip: USD$250.00. The beautiful memories: Priceless =)

Went to Disneyland last week with Liren, YinFong, Felix the cat, and Lionel Messy. Love the rides, the parade, the fireworks in front of Disney castle and the honeymoon feeling...will be back to Florida Disneyworld in hmm 5 years time?? haha
The next day went to Hollywood to catch a glimpse of Harry Potter Order of Phoenix US Premier.. And I manage to squeeze into the front row of screaming HP fans.. Yeap, saw Daniel Radcliff, Emma Watson and Rupert something (Ron Weasly).. forget his name. 1 metre away from me. They looked so young. Emma is so beautiful! Crazy fans in Hogwarts sch uniform are screaming and screaming. I bet my sis will do so too~~ oh ya winnie, if you wanna see your HP pics, you can click on the link "yinfong" on the right of this page. High quality pics taken from my friend's camera. Hehe.
Disneyland tickets: USD$60.00. Living up to my childhood dream: Priceless =)

I am so gonna miss my life here.

Alrite, time to study for my test tomorrow.

Life in America..

is ideal, is relaxing, is very laid back, is definitely less competitive. America is a very liberal country where human rights were placed at the upmost level. I was amazed when the platform of a public bus can actually be flipped over onto the roadside curb so that diable passenger can get onto the bus with their wheelchair. The bus driver would also get off the bus and help the disabled passenger...now you don't see this back in Malaysia or Singapore.. And there are special seats on the bus reserved for disabled people and the elderly..nice..

Most of the American that I've met are friendly and respectful. In my hallway, everyone would just say "hi" "hey" when we bump to each other and start chatting. In PGP, when I say "hi" to a resident, she would just give me "a look"... =:=

In almost every lecture, students in UCLA would definitely raised their hands up to ask questions, interrupting the lecturer's talk. I have not encountered any of the event when a student actually stop the lecturer from talking in NUS...
