My 1st-4th Feb 2008 in California

It is now Monday 5.52pm in San Francisco. I am in my uncle's home at 140, 17th Avenue, right in front of his Sony flat screen desktop at the Ground Floor.

Hmmm..... today's weather is really good. Cool breeze plus the sunshine. We just got back from the drive to Golden Gate bridge. Nice** I wish i don't have to go back... =P

We touched down on Friday 1pm. On that night, after having Korean BBQ with a noisy bunch of people at the table next to us, 6 of us (uncle, 3 of us and 2 ABC cousins)drove a rented van to.... "El Ay"... LOS ANGELES !!!!!!!!!!!!! We were not told about the plan until we arrived. We went to the DISNEYLAND on Saturday !!! Wow.. i've been to Movie World and Dream world in Gold Coast, but those were really NOTHING compared to Disneyland. It is a DREAM TOWN... the whole world of disney displayed right in front of us, and those thrill rides were awesome! Our favourite rides - Space Mountain and Indiana Jones. (We went twice, hehehe) We didn't leave until 12am. It was a long day.

On Sunday, we continued our excitement in Universal Studio Hollywood. We saw how they make movies about earthquake, fire (Backdraft), flood (Waterworld), splitting of the red sea (10 commandments), the place where they shoot Desperate Housewives, live Fear Factor on stage etc.. [i was dozing off half of the time during the tour, maybe it's bed time in Malaysia, that's why.. hehee.. want more details, ask Anne.] Oh oh.. there is a ride called the Mummy ride (based on the movie), hahaha... which allowed us to take it twice back to back. We took it 4 times !!! Yoo hoo... it was really really goood !! We just "AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..." all the wayyy !!

Everything was greeeat here.. just that i got sleepy at the wrong time !! It was not that kind of yawn..** sleepy. It was the really dizzy and blurry sleepiness that i myself have never experienced before. In Disneyland, while lining up for Indiana Jones ride, i was walking in Zig Zag line, because i dozed off !! My brother and my cousin had to throw me to and fro to wake me up. It was really painful, to get sleepy at the most precious moment of my life.. It wasn't just once, the same happen when i was sitting in the tour at Universal Studio. Anne was like "Hai.. again.." And just now in the car, when my uncle was showing us the beauty of San Francisco.. Soo... my top prayer request, to stay awake during my remaining stay here, so that i don't missed out on any fun !! Hehehe.. =D

K time to get ready. We are going to work out at the gym where my cousin work.

One! Two! One! Two!
