New Friends :> [Day 2]

(this is me again, trying to write as much posts before I start getting busier next week :p
also, if you haven't noticed, I've started to put in names of the people I know. think now its much better than keeping people anonymous)

After 2 days of being on the recieving end of other's kindness, I met some more really nice people today. :) I had a more proper introduction and chat with John and Will (who I just met today). John is a personal trainer and vegan, and is going to read Kinesiology (the science of human movement, according to Wikipedia :p). Will is a computer science graduate and currently works at the University.

Irene, Will, Will's friend Allan and I went supermarketting in the afternoon. Allan is also a psychology graduate and will be doing optometry in the Sep. We went to a lot of faraway supermarkets which I will not be able to get there easily without a car. sigh... it's true what everyone says. One without a car in the U.S. can be very restricted in where one can go. Irene's really nice and said that she goes to the Chinese Supermarket every 2-3 weeks and that I am welcome to join her on the trip. We had a lot of fun chatting in the car. While I still felt quite lost in everyone's American accents, they were so inclusive that I felt really comfortable with them.

I went with Irene and her cousin Mina to dinner at a Korean restaurant in the evening. We went to a little shop which does neo-print and have those machines in which you turn a knob to get a little toy. Irene and Mina persuaded me to join them in getting a little handphone toy, which I have fixed on my handphone :p. They got pooh bear ones, while I got Emile from Ratatouille. We then adjourned to have dessert at Yoghurt world, the most fantastic place to have yoghurt of many different flavours and toppings. We then went to meet Will and Allen at a pool place. I tried my hand at the game after so many years of not playing. haha no improvements in my shots but no deterioration either. I feel blessed :p I had a really enjoyable evening.

At 11ish, I had to leave Irene and Mina to finish the movie we were watching on Irene's laptop. Could not keep my eyes open. I had a shower and got into bed by 12am.
