ok i'll continue where i left off..

so day 13, i went online again in the morning.. then we drove to La Jolla.. afterseeing some sights, we stopped at a shopping centre.. its like a mall, but its outdoors.. had vietnamese food.. after that, went to the Apple store to check out the iPhone and iPod Nano 3rd gen.. after more shopping (well, i actually just follow around), went back to that food court for the same vietnamese food.. trust me, after seeing so many fast food chains, you start to miss home food.. ALOT! but vietnamese was the closest to home food so.... went back after that.. surpprisingly, when i went online, Justin, Yan, and Max were online so at least i had company..

day 14.. DISNEYLAND!! had breakfast and went straight there.. there are too many things to talk about so i wont go to detail.. spent the whole day in Disneyland and had fun..

day 15.. same thing.. breakfast in room and drove to Disneyland.. but we went in to Disney's California Adventure Park 1st.. its also Disney, just that its newer than Disneyland.. the rides are more intense and well, equally fun.. the ride i enjoyed the most was the California Screamin'.. its a high speed roller coaster with loops, drops, twists and turns.. at first my knees went all jello like when i was lining up and saw the ones in front of me scream.. but after like 4 times, well, you'll get the hang of it.. there was another ride which i never wanted to attempt.. its called the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.. the ride is basically like the Solero Shot in Genting (i dont know if Solero Shot is still there but..).. but it doesnt just drop you from a height.. it has a story.. its about something which happened in the past in the Hollywood Hotel.. blah blah blah.. before the ride began, this happened :

Ladies and gentlemen please fasten your seat belt, hold on to all your belongings like your bags, your hat, your loved ones, your body parts..

(i was thinking to myself oh F***)

(another person riding screams "whooo!")

(guy looks at that person)

and hold on to him *evil stare and grin*

(my sister) *makes a frightened sound*

girl, are you ok?

*not so confident answer* yeah..

are you scared?

ye..yeah...

oh....... well you should be *evil laugh*

i was like HOLY SHIT!!

so after taking pictures with Disney characters, we went back to Disneyland.. and went for dinner just outside Disneyland.. went back after that..

day 16, i went online in the morning to find Apple stores located in Beverly Hills.. drove to LA.. went to the Hollywood walk of Fame.. there was also the Kodak Theatre and this Chinese Theatre which looks chinese but nothing chinese bout it.. drove around Beverly Hills hoping to spot celebrities but, no luck.. went to Rodeo Drive which is like the mother of all shopping.. the shops there are like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Coach, Armani, and all the designers who make the clothes for celebrities.. i think the celebs shop here because everything here is classy.. i mean, the cheapest car parked there was like a 2007 S-Class.. i saw a Masserati, an Aston Martin, Rolce Royce, Bentley, Ferrari, Lamborgini.. and hear this, the street lamps on Rodeo Drive, ARE FRIGGIN CHANDELIERS!!! so after all the admiring, went to Santa Monica and found the Apple store in a mall.. bought my iPod nano 3rd gen.. its 8gb and its (PRODUCT) red.. had dinner and returned the car.. and boarded the plane for Hong Kong.. arrived in Hong Kong around 8am Msian time.. left the airport and went to this mall but there was nothing to buy.. had lunch and went back to the airport.. boarded the plane and arrived in Penang around 7pm..

my exam results was the 1st letter to be opened so you all can guess how my vacation ended.. XD

i guess i'll stop here.. i lost in the 1st round of Penang Closed yesterday.. today i got another match..
