San Antonio

Cold and hungry are the worse feeling in the world, while i was in San Antonio the weather was freezing. The first day i spent the whole day shopping at an outdoor outlet. When it got dark, staying at the hotel and eating instant noodles was good enough for me, "But" we had to take a walk along the river walk and stay for dinner. Dinner was sitting outdoor at a restaurant freezing to death. It was so cold i was eating my nachos with gloves.

Second day, i had to wake up early for another walk at the river walk, which was actually quite pleasant. The view was much better then night time.

At 12 o'clock sharp we arrived at Sea World, when it just opened.
It was cold, and pretty empty since it was a weekday, so practically the rides there empty and i got to go on the roller coasters at least 3 times. Mainly we were their for the shows, which i loved because I'm so friggen curious how they train sea creatures.























This ride was the steel eel, It was one hell of a long ride. It went down so steep, i don't think they seat belts on this is safe enough. One ride i can never go on, is the free fall, everything either then that I'm fine. If you can look closely at the pictures, I'm in there somewhere.


To end my day, we went to out last show at 7:30 of the shamu whales. They are amazing.

Christmas eve and Christmas

Christmas eve started off with the temperature dropping. But it doesn't really matter because its all about staying indoors with the family, eating and getting gifts. My Christmas eve was at my Aunty's house, and we had a sleepover. When the clock strikes 12, it was time to unwrap the presents, then we would all stay up till 3 playing board games. This is Christmas.
This dog, who i am totally in love with because of its goofiness. Honestly, i think i lost my first french kiss to this dog.

Id like to shout out "Merry Christmas" to you all.
Hope you got the gifts that you wanted.
I ended up getting clothes, cosmetics and an ipod touch which i would like to quietly complain that it wasn't the one i wanted. I'm putting ebay into serious thought.

My Christmas was great, it was the whole family getting together at my cousins for dinner, and then later on, we spent 2 hours taking family portrait. Its 1am now, and i still got to pack for my trip tomorrow morning to San Antonio.  Good night 
I wore this dress to Christmas, it was cold, but i was mostly indoors.
This dress really reminds me of GossipGirl, how Blair gave Jenny the blue dress.
It was roughly the same colour. From Forever21

America Day 23 and 24

It finally reached the end of the week, when everyone is off work, and can spend quality time with the family. But this weekend was extra special because i was going to celebrate my 14th. The day began pretty well, but it ended up with me shredding to tears and my make up all ruined. It was not a good day, so i wont mention too much about in detail, but that same night, i went to watch "TRON" and it was weird, as in "what the hell is going on weird". I felt sleepy during the movie, it was either "im tired" or "this movie is boring". Got home at 1am, dead tired, sick and cold.
First photo, credit to Anna who did my makeup.
Second photo, was in a gelato place for a dessert, which then i decided to open my presents. I got a makeup set by Elizabeth Arden, dress, cosmetics, and the usual "money". I was coated up, since it was sooo cold, and Houston weather is hot cold hot cold, which made me sick. That night got home, changed, brush teeth, and slept for 10 beautiful hours.

Today, woke up with this bullet in my head, making everything so stuffy. My plans was to stay home, rest and recover. That didn't last very long, went for lunch at "smash burger" where the burgers are literally smashed, and yet so very delicious. Later walked around this beautiful place where i had no idea were i was and didn't have my camera. Later today spend two hours looking for my lens cap, im so sure its at home. Still lost. Probably end up buying another one off ebay.

For dinner, it was so called my birthday again. I went downtown to dine at an aquarium restaurant. The place was so creative and they really emphasize the fishy theme. Though, the food wasn't that great, mainly your there just to pay for the atmosphere. Dessert was creme burlee, my usual fav, and the waitress stuffed a candle in it, so it was considered as a bithday cake?

America Day 19

Only once a year, your facebook page gets spammed like crazy.
Its my birthday, and it feels pretty awesome.
14 years old now, the age when you don't get excited when its your birthday.
Its a shame the 16th landed on a Thursday, means everyone is at work and they have their own shit to do, and they cant celebrate it with you because they don't have any bloody time. But its okay I'm celebrating it on a Sunday. My mum gave me my present this morning, it was a Guess watch. And i think im getting an ipod touch for christmas, She's really crap at hiding presents.
























The Christmas tree.
My Christmas tree looks kinda dodgy. When writing about it sounds better.
We had to go to 3 different places, to find the perfect tree, and yet this one is kinda crooked.  We decorated it with exactly 176 baubles. At the very top of the tree i wanted an angel or a star, or a giant bow with the left over ribbon to dangle down onto the tree. But all i could find was a big bow at the dollar store. GOOD enough. Inside the tree we wrapped two sets of white lights, and outside we wrapped two sets of coloured lights. The white fluffy sheet we bought from the fabric store is suppose to imitate as the snow, which has flashing lights underneath so it would look like the tree lights is reflecting the snow. And last my mum put some pines on the snow, but in my eye, they look like shit.  This tree sucks up 2 cups of water a day, and it gives me back pain refilling its pot.

America Day 7

Yesterday went to an outdoor outlet, it was fr-fr-friggen FREEZING. Didn't buy to much, because I'm waiting til after Christmas because the shops are pretty hardcore. But at time like now, its time to buy Christmas presents. Even thought I've been in America alot of times, i still use the phase "Bin" instead of "trashcan" and i get teased for it.

Today woke up so early when the sun hasn't raised, well it was 8:30 and cloudy, so it seemed pretty dark, to go gym and work out for a little. Plus its winter, its a healthy and Eco friendly way to stay warm. Later i went to what they call "downtown" to an empty city just to eat at some pathetic empty restaurant because apparently its nice?

Had a big crave for sugary Cinnamon sticks such as CHURROS!, so i went to Costco. The best place of all for selling wholesale stuff, but you can only get in if you owe some sort of business and have a membership card. Walked around having no idea of what to buy, but you just know you want to buy something, i was pretty much attracted to the free sample carts.  One of them were handing out free FerroRochers, how can't i resist that? (actually I'm not a fan of nuts) 
 One valuable lesson learn today, don't ever ever ever eat goats cheese, it was a sample and i thought i should try it, it was disgusting. So we all know what armpits are yes? how can i put this in words, it taste like armpit hair that's all sweaty and hasn't been washed. Why I'm talking about armpits? its all i can think of right now because I'm in desperate need or a wax right now.

Pretty much after the sample food, i was full and had half a churro. Eating in the car i was on my way to Galleria a shopping mall. Shopping malls here have such Bigbrands such as LV, Burberry, Prada and so on. But the thing is everyone is such a high roller and buys all that. So practically there's nothing so special about wearing them expensive brands here. Maybe if you had an LV bag in Vietnam, hobos will hover around you,But not here its just too common.

To end my day, i went to some little girls 4th year old birthday party, and ate tonnes of fruit. I somehow got high on that and couldn't stop singing about myself being the best for the last half an hour. Now tried and have eye bags for the very first time in my life. Lights off for the next 12 perfect hours. Goodnight.

Oh short story, i was on my way somewhere, don't remember. And i stopped at the traffic lights. An African American man came over asking for some change to donate to some sort of church. I was in a good mood and gave him a few dollars or so, and he went for a knuckle punch, and i noticed that he had blue eyes. African American with blue eyes. That's fucken amazing. ( more beautiful then a double rainbow)

America Day 1

Alright, so my plane trip was horrible, but its good to hear that I'm not jet lagged.
What pissed me off so badly was that my sibling thought it would be funny to lock my luggage up with the number pins, of three numbers.  At the airport, she didn't know the pin, and the check in people said that people might cut the luggage open, and i really hoped they did. It would have saved the trouble of me opening it myself. But went we received it, they didn't cut it open damit. When we got back to houston she tried all 999 code, starting from 999 going down. The code was 090, idiot.

I'm staying at my mother's place at the moment. Apparently she bought another two storey house, and i didn't even know anything about it. I'd like to mention that there's cameras all over the house except for bedrooms and bathrooms, i guess there's no more open air masturbation for me.

First day, i had some macaroons this morning, then later went out for brunch and dinner. A lot of food everywhere besides this house. This house is like living in absolute poverty, it has a lack of food, except for boxes of instant noodles for storm seasons. Later today, i went shopping for cosmetics, and Christmas decoration. I'm sure everyone is getting their Christmas tree up now.

And right now i am trying to seek attention for my beloved camera to get it running again, my finger is going insane since its missing the feeling of pressing the shutter release button. These words are getting a lil boring, I'll get some pictures up and running soon, I'm sure it would make it more motivating and attractive to read. Stay tuned.

And she has left the bulding.

Leaving to the states today, having a 16 hour flight, then another 6 hour flight.
And the day before leaving, im sick, the feeling of a blocked nose, headache and feeling like im about to vomit. The feeling of vomiting is horrible, all the saliva rushing in your mouth,  and you feel all weak, like the dying feeling. Actually nothing is as painful as child birth, but guys think that getting hit in the balls is more painful, funny thing is you never get to experience both in your life. 

A good thing, is that im going to miss out on another of "Australia's Summer". Thankgod, there's always so many fucken flies. Summer is beautiful and all, but its weather is just disgusting, no matter how many layers you take of its still hot, like i can be literally naked and im all sticky and wet... Okay moving on.

Ive always liked being on the plane, beside the fact that the turbulence noise is non stop. I'm looking forward in the plane trip rather then getting to my destination. Airplane food, if we paid so much for the ticket, why cant we gourmet food? Im sure technology has caught up to make gourmet plane food.

Hopefully i will get my camera in order to start posting up pictures again.
When i land, i'll run to the nearest computer.
Wish me a safe flight, and stay in touch with my blog.
Yeah, i got a haircut yesterday.
The hairdressers thought i couldnt understand viet, and they started bitching.
I heard it all.
