I came back from San Francisco yesterday. it was ok. i liked it most of the time. i went w/ my family and we walked around A LOT. i live in TX, so i was so unprepared for the drop in temp. it was either freeizing or chilly and foggy. i saw Muir Woods and actually saw my kindergarden teacher for the 1st time in 10 years. that was so weird. she lives in the same city as me but the only time we met after having class together was on vacation in California. i walked a littl eon the Golden Gate Bridge and went to the beach. the food was ok. once it seriously was the worst food i've ever had then pretty good but SO expensive. i had a Japenese crape which was good. i bought some cloths too. i went to this store and this guy there kept on talking to me. he was adorable. when i told hi i was from TX he said something like, "Oh yeah, don't mess w/ TX." then he would say i was quiet or that i took a while to chose cloths. finally i was going to buy this hoodie but couldn't decide between white w/ pink or just pink. and he said he would give me $5 off if i bought it since i was taking so long. when i finally bought it and was leaving he said something like, "Don't be so shy. Stand up for ourself." being a family trip i had to stay w/ them, but i would have loved to have gone there again. i wanted to see him but we never went back to Fisherman's Warf crying gonk i've been thinking about him since i last saw him, hopefully he was only 4 years older then me at the most, otherwise it would have been a little pervy. he only looked about..17..maybe. but at least he wasn't a stupid kid, he was...a guy. yes well, the trip was fine, there were lots of poor people tho. and all the bus drivers were cranky. once we went to Ellis for some soup but that was a bad place to go. my dad saw a policeman pull out his gun on someone and there were more poor people than ever. when we were at the bus stop this guy walked by then someone a little ways from us started dancing. then this lady sat right next to my brother. that's when we left. my dad said he saw the first guy signal to the guy ahead of us to start dancing, which i guess was another signal to the lady who sat next to us. if they were passing silent messages, the lasy sitting beside my brother must have been there to listening to what we were saying then probably mugged us. saw people digging through trash cans and people performing on the streets. once we bought a pizza and when we were walking back to our hotel we saw a policeman searching a guy against a wall...it was right by our hotel! from what we heard he was trying to mug a couple or something. once a guy tried to sell my mom mushrooms and we also saw a guy urinating on a wall...even tho there was a bathroom a few steps away from him. the trip was ok. there is a lot to do in that city, it was kinda strange seeing all those people out on the street. but i realized how much i missed my home.
