Yay Friday

The long Labor Day weekend is finally here! Good! Because I didn't sleep well last night and will use plenty of nappy time. I think I woke up a few times and around 6 AM my eyes were wide open. I tried to go back to sleep for another 10 - 20 min but that didn't work out. Today I was quite productive on the computer. I learned a couple of new things in InDesign: Using text thread and paragraph styles. It felt good to get stuff done and learn at the same time.

We didn't get to leave work early like most other companies, which made me dislike this place even more. Sigh. I went to the gym after getting off of the crowded and very slow 10 Freeway. The gym was half-empty around 6:30. People seemed chilled and laid-back as there were no lines or waiting. I didn't stay long though - I was meeting Megan tonight. I was debating if I should go to Subway for dinner again, then I decided to try Baja Fresh finally. The food there wasn't exactly cheap. The place was kind of empty too. Did everybody leave town, really?

After asking the cashier which burrito had rice and getting a strong recommendation from her, I ordered their Burrito Ultimo, to go. I was surprised to find out that it was actually tasty. Of course it was salty and I am feeling dry now. Probably once a month kind of a treat for me. I met up with Megan afterwards and we went to SingBaLa for their shaved ice. Hanging out with Megan is always filled with big laughs. Now I'm back and feeling stuffed.

I am seriously considering visiting Mom and Dad in China this October. I really want a vacation, and also I feel there might not be that much time in the future that I will get to spend with Dad. I don't know. It's also about damn time that I get out of LA and do some traveling abroad. We'll see.
