independence day


i went to huntington beach...


and SURFED!!!


why this surf board look like airmail envelope?

the sun was out, the wind was a tad chilly,
the water was brrrrrr (thank god for the wet suit).
i took an hour-long lesson and managed to stand up!
was knackered after that though
so decided not to head back into the water
and lazed on the beach instead.

the day after, i hauled my aching body out of bed,
rented a car (and got a cool one plus a discount coz i hiao),
braved the peanut butter and jams
and drove out to farmers market and the grove.


it's the long fourth of july weekend so the masses were out
and traffic was HORRIBLE.
i crawled along the freeway
behind a never-ending line of vehicles
and took more than two hours to complete a 45-minute journey.

will be missing out on the independence day fireworks today
but the past two nights have been amazing
since my room overlooks disneyland
and their nightly 15-minute fireworks display
happened right before my eyes.


-----

on a different note...
your coming forward to talk about us,
your sincerity and apology,
no matter how late,
meant a lot to me.
thank you.
