Friday at the movies...
It was friday yesterday and i was happy to be able to go to Sophie's house for the movie. Sophie's host parents and the kids were out for a vacation and there we go...yippe...i didnt know what to expect, but i was really looking forward to it. I finish work about 8pm and off i go...i was driving in the dark, looking at the streets name, hoping that i wouldnt miss the turn, and there we go, i missed it becos i was driving a little too fast to make the turn. heehee...it's ok, it happens a lot here, i've learnt to turn back as quickly as i can, so that i dont go on the wrong way, i make a turn and got to her plc finally.
There were 7 of us altogether, one singaporean(me), one turkish(betul), one korean(silvia), one german(isabell), one austrian(sophie), one canadian(erith) and one south african(salom). Nice...it's a good mix of pple...heehee..so then they started to make nachos and pizza....very interesting night i would say...and then we talked a little bit. Then it was movie time...heehee
the first show we watched was "Kicking and Screaming"...quite a funny show...then we had a break and the girls ate ice-cream...i was very tempted to but i'm having such a bad cough that i dont want to eat anything to make it worse...so i resisted and...ate chocolate instead! haha.. :P
after that, i left...the other girls spent the night there....silvia and me went back home...it's nice to be able to have a bed to sleep in...i think i'm too old to "dawn" all night liao...haha...they were saying to plan on going D.C tomorrow (which is actually today)....
so today (Saturday), i went to the planetarium with my host family.....it was in D.C, at the musuem of national history...it's 3D...quite nice, but isabelle was scared and Kelly had to stay outside with her, missing the whole show...i felt bad... :( anyhow, we finished the show and then i stayed on in D.C to wait for the girls....
i was waiting alone at this part of D.C where they have a lot of homeless pple...i must admit i was a bit scare...so i went into Starbucks, hoping to find a plc to sit n wait...just when i finished ordering, some pple took the seat i was eyeing....damn...so i have to go out into the streets again...oh....btw, Starbucks is everywhere here...literally everywhere....especially in the cities...you walk a bit, Starbucks, walk more, Starbucks....aiyo...it's really everywhere...anyway...
then they came, but only 3 of them..oh well...then we shopped and walked ard a little bit and went home becos i need to work tonight...so right now, the girls are sleeping and i'm waiting for my host parents to come back so that i can go to sleep too...heehee...tmr is the cultural fair...haha...seems like a lot of us are not too enthusiastic abt it!! :P
