Take a breather

I finally know what living out of a suitcase feels like. At least I have not pack or unpack my suitcase for the past month, and the next coming 2 months. So this is how "youth" and "travelling the world" and "seeing beyond the horizon" feels like.

I enjoy travelling a lot. Well, it sucks big time when you're travelling alone, but still nonetheless much better than staying at home doing nothing (except recently I have been playing Final Fantasy non-stop -- still counts as doing nothing). But there are big perks too. Its much easier to leech accommodations off friends, there is the flexibility of "not having to mood" to go somewhere, and the option of being cheapo and use public transport.

Lets take a step back and take a deep breath into my hectic travelling schedule for the next month or more. I'm leaving for Chicago tomorrow, and going to Cleveland on the 11th, in which I am catching a bus to Akron, and back to Philadelphia on the 12th. Then on the 14th, I'm off to Boston, only to be back in DC on Friday the 16th, and back in Boston on the Saturday after that (blame the lousy interview planner in me). Then on the 21st, I'll be back in Philadelphia, heading to New York 2 days later, coming back to Philadelphia again, then to DC for another 2 days, and then back to Philadelphia. Not to mention more upcoming trips to Baltimore the following week, and another New York stopover, and another flight to Chicago to catch. Owh, and then there is New Jersey too how did I forget that.

Yeapz, that is my next 2 months in a nutshell. I feel the stress already. But that also means more beautiful places to see, more people to meet, and more pictures to capture the moments.

Anyways, couple more picture to finish of my SF trip. I know, it is finally ending. Must be so tired of seeing SF and SF and SF on my blog over and over again.

Here's a face this blog hasn't seen for a while. 

The view of SF.

One of our Jefferson faculty was kind enough to invite all Jefferson faculty and students to join him on a sunset cruise. B-E-S-T C-R-U-I-S-E E-V-E-R !-!-!  You soon see why. The view is amazing. 

I have a thing for sails and boats.

The starting part of the sunset. With the Golden gate bridge.

I swear this is not a postcard. Isn't it breathtakingly amazing?

With a little photoediting.


The red bridge again.


Ahhhhhhh finally a picture together.

I love the sunset.

And courtesy to Mr Fong who had a poster to present during the conference. Otherwise I probably won't be having this trip.


Last but not the least, a Japanese sushi place with boats on water carrying sushi instead of the regular conveyor belt. Cute!

Thats the end of my SF story!
