The flowers are smiling brightly on a cloudy day

Trip to Target Field and Mill City Museum

So, I went to the Target Field today. I was not excited at all because... well, just because I don't understand the game of baseball.

We were taking tonnes of pictures and I heard somebody said "they are so tourist". Yes, we are tourists, so what.

It turned out to be a memorable experience because I have not seen anything like this before.

Francisco and I
We got the cheapest seats. The highest and the most corner.

Casey was overdressed for a baseball game. But he said he like it. So, I have nothing to comment about.

It was a cloudless day.

It was sunny yet breezy. Ya, it was suffering when the wind blew and Rami curled like a worm.

We often see this on tv but this is real. Awww...so sweet. It's a cliche but romantic.

When you're watching baseball, you have to get hot dog.

After the game, we went to Mill City Museum

St Anthony Falls
Could this be the last trip of the semester for the international students?

Cheers.

I am going back home

I experienced and survived Minnesota winter. How I wish there was a Diploma for that. The best thing happening now is green new leaves are growing out of the tree branches. And I think I have new obsession over squirrels and dogs. Mommy, can I have a puppy?

Anyway, my business here is going to be done soon.

I miss home a little. Just a little because I was just away for a few months. But you know what, I am going to miss St. Cloud more. There is possibility that the byes we say are going to be goodbye forever. Well, that's part of life, people come and go. No matter how sad is that, life goes on. At least, I am taking home life stories and experiences with me. And a few kilograms. That's more than what I can ask.

I really want to come back here sometime in near future.

Could someone take me out for seafood dinner? I will give you Minnesota postcard in return...

Cheers.

Barefoot day

It's so funny that people forgot to wear their shoe before they walk out of their house.

and we sat down at the side to watch.

It's a lovely day and we decided to do crazy things outside too.

I taught Justo and Shiori how to do the "Watermelon Tai-chi".

In a short time, they outperformed me. They are fast learner.

We didn't think that we get enough sunshine, so we went house-watching.

In a small place like St. Cloud, there are not many fun things that we could do.

I personally like this one. Simply because it is simple.

We are not lesbian.

We just love to cuddle.

I am really into making the pictures look aged lately.

The Mississippi River.

Wowww..This is how it feels to stand under the bridge.

Ayaka and Haruka

With Ken.

Accompanied Cici to Walmart for groceries shopping

Tomorrow is Culture Cafe where Francisco has to make a presentation about Nicaragua and prepare some Nicaraguan food.

I helped him to chop cabbage for the salad. Lots and lots of cabbage.

I am really really tired now. It was a long day for me.

Cheers.

My New Obsession

It was just a click, yes, just an easy brief click,I bought my new baby.

My baby arrived in my mailbox within 4 days.

And I peeled the wrapper one by one like a banana :)

Getting my new iPod touch 8gb from Amazon was the best bargain I could get.

Plus, I dress him up handsomely in pink.

Now, I can play around with my iPod without socializing in the real world.

Yay...my iPod, my precious.

iPod have all the soundtracks for my life.

Ayaka, Shiori and Justo thinks that I am too obsess with my new toy.

It was as if I am married to him and I am forgetting my friends =P

They forbade me from touching him and threaten to destroy him..sob sob

Hahaha.. it is just an iPod touch.

I might be excited about it now but sooner or later, it will be a fad.

Cheers.

32 more days to go home...

Things I do on Cloudy Tuesday

It was a chilly breezy day.

Couldn't leave the door without my jacket.

Today is not a day that I feel like talking.

Started my morning with a hearty breakfast.

After my classes and lunch, I just felt like going to Walmart.

Took the Westside bus. Not many people. nice.

I did my shopping extra slow today because I spent 2 hours to buy 5 things :)

That's why I like to shop alone.

Camwhored in the bus stop.

Reached downtown. Instead of taking the University bus, I walked. ~Lalala~

I found wild yellow flowers. Sign of spring is here.

Old house.

More old house.

I took the river walk which lead me to Lawrence Hall by the riverside.

The path.

I think these are called crabapple.

Met Peter and Steve in front of Lawrence Hall.

My dinner

Unexpectedly, I went to Sounding Concert by the Department of Music in the evening.

I love Tuesday.

Cheers.
