Our 5th wkend's travelling destination: STANFORD university

hihi ppl..

it's a sat night and i'm supposed to be studying for my macroecons test next week..

but here I am.. blogging.. haa~ this weekend wasn't as packed as our previous few.. we only truly travelled on friday to Standford University.. it's really a high-class uni with ultra smart ppl!!! haa~ i could feel their aura of cleverness..plus.. the air felt better there.. hee~ maybe if i smell more.. i'm be smart too!!!


















look at the 1st pic.. superly bai chi! cus we were asking vic to come over and take pic tgt... and she just decided to take a snapshot.. btw.. this is the cal-train.. not the normal "mrt" called BART here.. it's a train tt goes much faster and travel further distances... so we've gota take this to Standford.. abt 16 stops away from us.. 1.5hr ride



smthing funny happened while buying tics..' an officer came up to us to help us in buying tics.. and he asked as, "all of you under 18 right?
we were like "N------"



and he responded " YOU are all under 18!"




hee~ so we just decided to nod our heads and keep quiet....



and tt saved us 50% of our tics!!! the cal-train tic is expensive.. all thanks to our young looking faces! yeah!!!!



oooh.. after the cal-train journey.. we had to hop onto one of standford's shuttle service.. and FINALLY Standford university! it was super diff from berkeley.. haa~ like the sch for the rich.. nice structures.. buildings... fountains...
















































































There's a really pretty church called the memorial church in Standford University... it's in memory of Junior Stanford.












































Me and vic trying to act as stanford students...


sitting under the tree.. having an important discussion




















Hurray.. we are graduating from STANDFORD!!! day dreaming~
















































see what we found??? gosh... ppl in bikini swimming in their sch's fountains... with inflatables somemore!! hiyo.... and our tour guide told us tt it's the stanford spirit..

hee~ imagine doing this in NTU..

NO WAYS!!!!















After a long day's walk and long train rides.. we were finally back at berkeley and we decided to give urselves a treat!!! HURRAY... zhi cha at xiao hu nan.. it's a restaurant near our dorms tt serve chinese food... woOhoo... yummy yummy!!!

but still missing food back home... can't wait to go to the hawker centres for SINGAPOREAN food feast.. yeah... 2 more weeks!!!
