sigh...back to reality

So it really felt like a dream when Monday came around after the wedding, life was back to normal. just busy, and well, the happily married newlyweds were already gone on their honeymoon to Kaua'i, Hawaii, so i was missing them tremendously. But i know they are having SUPER AWESOME time there so im just happy for them!

so i had just about 1 week left of my "time" in PV, so just bummed around. felt a bit unproductive but oh wellz. I just went on hikes, and catched some movies and stocked up on trader Joe's goodies.
*Del Cerro Park Hikes
*FINALLY watched "This is It" MJ ... forever!
*Fairfax Farmer's market
*Movie "2012" is making me feel nervous about the year that's coming up....is the world really gonna be over..!? geeez.
*Pam to PV - got a hair cut from Julie, yay!


but now i am back in Japan, as of Nov 17th, and the nite i landed was super cold and raining, and it was just a bit TOO MUCH TO TAKE after being in California during possibly the best time of the year as well haaaa. but i realized that the 2009 will end sooner than i thought, got the Honolulu marathon coming up and then there's Christmas time, then New years!!
okay so for me 2010 will be the year to rejuvenate and empower my own self to become more marketable. gotta do it!


missing home. i sure was thankful for early Eggnog. miss PV, miss all of you guys. =(

NOVEMBER 8th, 2009 - the Unforgettable Day


Becky and Marc are now MARRIED...!!


Congratulations, you guys, and it was such an amazing and most gorgeous wedding in the world.
I know no other weddings can top this one, because it was the wedding of my two most special amazing friends.

Got to see a lot of old friends and familiar faces, and it was just undiscribeable night full of love. If there is a living proof of true love, i think i witnessed it last night.

the day after the wedding, getting back around midnite, but maaaan...i couldnt sleep cuz of the overwhelming feeling of bliss.

it seriously doesn't get any sweeter than this.


*the usual cew- bride&groom, and best man and the maid of honor, yay!
*adam and I go way back, aww. good times.


*the Bridesmaids =D

* love these 2 so much! my bestest friends...

seeing a lot of holiday candies and decorations in the store shelves

jolly inside.
I havent been back in the states around this time of year, so seeing Winter holiday drinks at Peet's or Starbucks makes me smile.
