listening intently.

the library with millions of books.
looks kind of like some space ship…

and it was sponsored by dr. seuss! =)
green eggs and ham haha.
where’s cindy lou who?

even tho the whole adam and eve story with the intelligent snake was interesting.
i personally would prefer a better looking huge animal on my floor…

and there’s sumo killing the snake with her hugeeee body mass.

if i get into this univ.
i’ll be very tempted to just roll on that strip of grass.
ahhh.

paradise regained. i dont know. LOL.

^^”

unsuccessful murder shortening attempt.

sumo!


zoom. in. =)

fire buttons!

afterwards.
we hit the beach right below ucsd..somewhere in la jolla.

one day im going to buy a house by the beach.
and tan my legs all day long. seriously.
(these are interesting looking. what if the glass breaks?)

if you cover up the circled part of my hair.
you’d see susan. LOL.
this is kind of cool actually.
great minds look alike too…

so when’s the last time you’ve actually seen oceanwater this blue?
the beach was sooooo pretty ♥

i could drink this.

it’s us again =)

=)

hungry for seagulls!

oh we saw a man push this jellyfish ashore.
it was humongous.
even tho it died, the man said that it’ll still sting.
so cool!

jellyfish memorial.
held right here on the beach.

so we were pretty much jumping the entire day.
but ahh =) it was fun.
watching sumo step over waves. me and juno doing pirouettes in the ocean water.
running on sand.

oh good times ^^ 

pretty much self explanatory.

cinno lost at sea.

i took this while tying my hair.
isn’t that pretty cool. lol.

yeah. that’s us.

minime.

so what exactly is wrong with you?

happy eating.

need i say more?

do we look alike?

and then we went on that bike-oat thing in a tiny manmade lake in front of the aquarium.
tiring, but breezy. =D
steering was rather hard, the directions actually change like 10 seconds after you steer.

and then we hit the curb.

annie and the port-o-potties. how fitting..
just kidding haha.
she’s so cute =)

lol

does this look familiar?
ferris wheel & bridge.
oh yes. this was right next to club v20.

parents =)

this boat was so unique. =)
it had its own sofa and…

barbeque…

haha he’s chubby.
does that tell you something about chocolate factories o.o” 

its us again.

two monkeys.

but why’s the rum gone?

cus i used them for cooking.

then we went onto this area on 2nd street known as belmont.
and oolala. the line in pinkberry went out the door.

the interior design was so contemporary.
they had really expensive/ cool merchandise too.
too bad no photography allowed indoors.

there was a cute dogbowl outside.
the bone looked as if a dog actually tried chewing it.
 

i managed to take a pic of my yogurt!  
original+mango+pineapple+ mochi  ♥♥

along the road.
there were parking meters with…


this one didn’t have a parking meter.
but it’s brilliant.





whoever did these had a lot of time on their hands.
but it kept me occupied as well.
instead of looking at stores.
i was scrutinizing the floor.

then we went along highway 1 and passed by seal beach, huntington beach (and saw mr bosanko’s pier-that-collasped), newport beach…
and went to fashion island =D haha.
i felt weird going to the cheesecake factory in shorts&flipflops. thai chicken pasta comes way too strong.
&my teeth wouldn’t stop chattering.
it was fun nontheless.

btw. one of my main objectives today was to get slightly tanner.
after a whole day’s waltzing in the sun.
i didnt change one bit.
parents got sunburn.
annie turned blacker.
and i, as annie calls it…  “cindy you’re the color of my teeth”
sob*
