The States — Updates

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

It’s been such a crazy period for me so far during my stay in Houston. I went to Austin to party at 6th street, there’s a coyote bar there and halfway thru the night, gladys and I went up the bar and danced with another 48 girls. It was so fun and CRAZY. Pictures will not be shared for this event. Haha.

Went nuts in San Marcos where there are more than 130 outlet stores (armani, gucci, escada, hugo, BCBG, Lacoste, Nike, CK, the list goes on!!) The most important shop, to die for…is COACH. It’s ridiculously cheap. I bought 6 items for less than 800 dollars. Impossible to get this deal in Malaysia or anywhere where I reckon. I am so contended now, though with a burnt credit card. Oh, I should mention that when the Greyhound bus we took arrived at San Marcos, there is no single taxi around to bring us to the outlet mall, it’s 6 miles away. This really nice cop offered to give us a lift and we sat in his cop car to the mall. It’s such a cool experience, especially I am not in there for criminal reason. Haha. We were just so lucky :)

Attended NBA game, Houston Rockets vs New Jersey Nets. It’s so entertaining and just like what I saw in the tv. The songs played throughout the game was awesome, every break, there’s cheerleaders, gameshow and silly competitions. It was so hilarious, I enjoyed it so much and I felt that I accomplished some of my dreams of going to an NBA game, not that I am a fan but it’s just so commercial and famous. Haha.

Almost everynight, I went out for good dinner, activities, dancing. It’s tiring and I feel like a zombie during the day but my body just keeps on going. I think I am crazy and unstoppable here and I need to cool down when I go back to Msia in around 2 weeks time. I partied mostly with ppl from another BUild-IT cos they are much cooler. Haha. Except my new found best friend, Gladys.

New agenda is to go for ROdeo show and then NYC! Got my flight tickets already, and I am so looking forward to go to the BIG APPLE. Can’t wait and will definitely blog about it.
