Wow, long time no blog. Last Sunday was my convocation for completing (well, almost) my student teaching internship at CPS. The convocation was held at the Union League Club which was gorg. I had a good time and we got to present our thank-you presentations with our school groups. It was a good time, but I was very disappointed when I didn't see my cooperating teacher there. She told me she would be there for sure several times and I was really looking forward to seeing her (especially when I dedicated a section of my presentation to her). Anyway, not even an email explaining why she couldn't make it. I really dislike it when people do that. Oh well.

Besides the convocation, I have been busy moving out of my apt to my sis' apt for the month of May. We are still in search of an apt and we need to find one soon! Her lease here ends at the end of May. Lolz. What should I do.... ugh

I'm back! It has been such a long time since my entire family had been together. My mom and sister took a week off to go visit my daddy in Sacramento, CA with me. On the first day, we just went shopping at the outlet by my daddy's apartment. Went to the Red Hawk Casino and got to see my dad working! He looked so cool spinning the Roulette table. The 2nd day, my mom, sister, and I headed to San Francisco for 3 days, 2 nights. The first day there, we went to SFMOMA and shopped a little. We also rode the cable car to Fisherman's Wharf, which was so scary and fun! The next day, my daddy met us up with his two friends in San Fran. We went to eat dim sum in Chinatown and then headed to Golden Gate Park, which was breathtaking! Then, we walked on the Golden Gate Bridge. Also breathtaking. After that, we went to Fisherman's Wharf for dinner! Fresh crabs, oysters, clam chowder, lobster, the whole shabam! The next day, we went shopping and went to another outlet by San Fran where I got a Mac lipstick for 10 bucks! I also got a coach wallet :D yahoooo. I'm going to give it away as a present tho. Then we went back to Sacramento and had a BIG chinese dinner with a bunch of my daddy's friends. It was AMAZING! After dinner, we went back to his apartment to play Wii on his new flat screen! so funny to watch my dad and his friends play. Overall great trip but I didnt exercise for 5 days...... got to lose weight....everyone said i gained weight..... (T_T) wahhhhhh

It's FINALLY spring break for me (well, still have a shitload to do...) and I'm going to Sacremento and San Francisco to visit my dad! I have never been to California before and I'm sooooo excited to be out of the cold in Chicago. What I'm ever more excited about is going SHOPPING in Japantown and eating yummy foods. HEHEHE. If anyone has recommendations on where to go to buy Japanese beauty products at decent prices, please let me know! Shanks! :D
