Why US again?

Since i have the time now, i decide to blog abt the trip. hahhaha.. This is my second trip to US. Seriously, i din know i would return to LA after the last trip in 2006. My colleagues tot i just went on a US trip recently but that was almost 1.5 years back. hahha... I din know my trip to US have such an impact on so many pple. hahahha...

It all started when I was chatting with michelle abt her new job posting to LA. She said if i am keen i could go over to her place to stay when i visit LA. I tot she was kidding but she really mean it. I started by asking dearie if she is keen to go with me. She agreed almost on spot and the planning began.

Initially, i tot going LA for 10 days is like too long. Afterall, there isnt much things to see and do over there. I tot it would be good if we visit a second city besides LA. I had a few in mind, Chicago, San Diego or Seattle. They were all US cities. I started asking ard to see which city is worth visiting. My well travelled colleagues said Seattle. I wanted to go to Chicago but one of my colleagues who stayed in Chicago for 4 years said it is a boring place. I also realised the place snows in winter.

Did some research again, then realised i could visit Canada. After all, i hv never tot i would visit Canada. The nearest Canadian city to LA is Vancouver. True enough, it was only a short flight from LA to Vancouver. I did a check on the internet, the air fare and accomodation were reasonable, abt USD 445. Wala. We went. hahhaha..... I am glad i did not regret. It will be a trip that i will remember in life. Will blog abt the trip in details later tonite or tomolo. hahha...

It was Kaz Bday yesterday. Boy! He is one year older than me le.. whahha.. Fast. It has been a year since i know him. I still remembered celebrating his bday last year. He was drunk and i had to help him down the stairs. He is not drunk this year. Only a bit high. We "slutted" a bit! Well, we are in the slutting com, remember?! hahha.. We bought nice pressies for him this year. Can see he is very touched. His gf bought him an expensive gift that caught him off guard. hahha...

We drank, danced and chit chat. What a nice way to celebrate his bday. I think more importantly, its the company that counts. Surprisingly, the dbl o gang became his good friends and all were celebrating like a big family. nice nice~~ There was no sabo, only hugs and cheers. I felt warmth too.. Alrite, time to prepare for work. Smooth route ahead....
