I Need More Time!!!

School started and work is piling up ... I've been so busy recently that I can't even find time to blog. Nonetheless, I managed to upload some of my photos that I promised.

Fantasy + Action

DisneyLand and Universal Studios

It takes 7+ hours to drive from my place to LA. Luckily I wasn’t the one driving … dear took the wheel throughout the journey cause she wanted me to rest after a days work. The journey was long and tiring ... dark and eerie. What made it worse was that we had to drive past winding mountain roads with no rest stops nearby. Our gas went low and there were no petrol stations nearby. Thank god we met a kind hearted man who offered to lend me his petrol card to refill my tank.

I had lotsa of fun at DisneyLand and Universal Studios … especially in Universal Studios, where you get to see all the action in movies presented right in front of your eyes. Stun shows, camera tricks, tools, settings, etc … you name it, they have it. I’ve captured quite a few of them in video. I’ll upload once I find a host.

Coasters and more coasters!

SixFlags Marine World @ Vallejo

SixFlags really lives up to its reputation. Never have I tried scarier coaster rides than these in my live before. Dear still made me sit in the front row for most of the rides … shes … simply … CRAZY!!! Hahahaha. I couldn’t really walk straight after these rides but it was really fun though. =)

My worst experience in the States so far …

I made a wrong turn into San Francisco while on my way back from SixFlags Marine World. I have totally no idea where I was but it sure looks like Gotham City. The traffic was heavy, the streets were all one way (I couldn’t make a U-turn back), dark and dirty, and suspicious people were roaming around everywhere. I didn’t dare to get out of the car, so I tried my luck by driving around hoping that I would be able to find my way out. I gave up after half an hour and stopped by a petrol station to ask for directions. The minute I stepped out of the car, I was approached by a Black asking if I was lost (He had a few friends with him … scary). I told him that I needed directions and he gave it to me straight away. BUT … he asked for some tips. I gave him 3 bucks, he wanted more … I ignored him anyways and drove off. Surprisingly, with his directions, I was able to get back onto the freeway in 5 minutes. Maybe I should have tipped him more eh.
