Japanese Sushi Party ...

As most of my frequent blog readers are aware, i've taken a likening to Sushi. My Vantaggio Family took it upon themselves to organise a Japanese Sushi Party. Yummy. Joel, Maiko, Roly and Maia made the sushi and the other Japanese food too... which was off the hook(my new saying), and there was enough sushi to go around... the party was great and plenty of extremely drunken times to be added to the collection.... I have some pictures... Check them out ...

My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me

Chrissi Leaves...

Ok one of my really close friends, Chrissi, left San Francisco last month. She returned to her home country as her year at Extranomical adventures had came to and end. I miss her so much, she was a really good friend and i wish her all the best for the future...and of course I'll be making the effort to visit her in Germany! :D So Long Chrissi...

Bettina and Marie say farwell...

Bettina, from Switzerland and Marie from France said goodbye and headed on to exciting adventures... Marie went back to Marcielle and Bettina to Argentina. We had a sushi party to mark their leaving, sushi, booze and fun times(lots of it). Then we had lunch in an amazing Thai restaurant before heading to Bi-Rite for ice cream :)... I'll miss you guys...

Naomh Drops In...

Naomh had finished school in Montana, where she was participating in the BEI programme for her placement year, and was then living in Livermore with her friend Kathleen. Livermore's about 30 minutes to an hour away via BART. Anyway, Naomh and Kathleen came into San Francisco for the day. I showed her around some places in the City while we had a major catch up, before running out of time and taking her back to the BART station. It was fun seeing a familiar face :D

Chelsea visits for a weekend...

Chelsea FINALLY came for a weekend in San Francisco. She came with her friends earlier in the year and she did the typical touristy stuff such as Fisherman's wharf, golden gate bridge and the cable car (which i still haven't managed to do yet). I decided to take her to a few places which are hidden in the city...and some places she wanted to go. :) She arrived Friday night, we went to 'SF's Best Drag Show', which was great fun! The next day we wandered around and hung out in the park before going to watch the Disney Pixar movie, UP! in 3D, it was FAN-BLOOMIN'-TASTIC! Worth a look! She left sunday afternoon. Again it was fresh to see her, I'll see her again in August in my travels after my work here :D

After friends leaving and friends visiting, I'm starting to realise that my time here in San Francisco is drawing to an end this time round ... I've got 6 weeks left ... I've made some really cool friends here and I'm going to make the most of the time left here...but that's another blog entry... For those back home ... I'll see yas all soon :D

I can trust my friends. These people force me to examine, encourage me to grow

No more Slacking!

Hey all. How is everyone? It has been a while. Sorry. My laptop went through a crisis. The hard drive of which, failed on me one day and its been none responsive since(bad times). I would turn on the laptop and see 'operating system not found' then I checked the BIOS of the system, and the hard drive was not located. I have not been able to get anything back from the hard drive(for now) that includes any music that was on there, ... which was alot ... all documents but the main thing ALL my photo graphs from this trip are also gone...(very bad times ) however, i did get a new hard drive and my laptop is working. (good times) I am still currently trying to get my hard drive recovered, I'm not giving up :(

Anyway...

I had to complete a report for university that also took some time to complete and explains why i aint blogged in so long.

I've gone through the past month sifting through memories and took the liberty to post them now.

Happy reading... :D
