Hang's Mini Adventure in San Diego

Wednesday after my Geology Lab, I drove straight to Escondido for a fun filled adventure in San Diego with Frances.

On the drive there, I got lost about 4.2 times. Why on Earth is the freeways and streets of Escondido so dark? Why are the signs not visible? And why am I directionally challenged? 

I later spent the night, not sleeping. I have this strange habit where I cannot sleep in places that isn't my own bed. There is something about being in an unfamiliar place that makes me toss and turn at night. It's an annoying habit, but I have it nonetheless.

We decided to sleep in, and by the time we woke up, it was time for lunch. I love lunch. I love food in general, and I especially love vegetarian restaurants. I finally got my pho fix (I had a craving for like 3 months) when I had vegetarian meatball pho. The meatballs were amazing. Frances even claimed she liked them better than regular meatballs. 

The afternoon was spent at the bookstore where we spent hours reading magazines and entertaining ourselves. I realize that a lot of people wouldn't find this exciting, but the thing is... we've been doing this since we were children, and it's became a habit. I actually have a need sometimes to go to Borders, and sit around reading. It may have to do with their AC. It's always nice to escape the heat.

Indian food is the way to my heart. It fills my heart and tummy with joy and happiness. Can you guess what we had for dinner? I realize that I am pretty predictable, but it can't be helped. I got to be myself. :)

A laid back day in San Diego was just what I need. It's nice to just lie around, and wonder what your next meal is going to be. I wish I had more lazy days like these. I think I will make a point to visit San Diego more often.

Did I also mention I got a bunch of $4 shirts at Old Navy? I love a good bargain, and it seriously made my day. I can't resist cheap clothing. 

San Diego is definitely the way to my heart. <3
