It was an ordinary day until...

Last Saturday I finally took a break (for the first time since I got here!) and did some sightseeing - alone (huhu). I've toured San Francisco years back so there's pretty much only a few places I haven't seen or taken photos of. Anyways, I took the school bus to one of my school's buildings at Northpoint. It's like just in front of Pier 39, cool huh? Just cross the other side of the street and you're there. Been here several times before so I didn't really take pics and go around, I just bought lunch. Funny though how there were so many people - doesn't seem to reflect the fact that this country's economy is at its lowest ever.



I went further down the bay, on foot, to check out the Cannery and Ghirardelli Square because I haven't been to those. Cannery is just a small place where there are restaurants and a few stores. It's nothing great really but I went there nonetheless to check out Steve & Barry's. It's the only Steve and Barry's I know in the area. Anyway, they carry Sarah Jessica Parker's Bitten collection so it was something I had to check out. Apparently the store was messed up because they were closing down to renovate. So I didn't see anything nice really except for some Sex and the City shirts on sale and a customer who brought in a cat sitting on top of a dog (Lol). Too bad my camera reflexes were too slow, I wasn't able to take a photo.



I walked further down and finally reached Ghirardelli Square. But before I could walk further I saw the beautiful Golden Gate bridge from afar with the sailboats enjoying the sunny day. Sweeeeet.





Finally walked towards Ghirardelli and looked at the chocolate stores. Only one caught my eye: Kara's Cupcakes. It reminded me of Sonja's Cupcakes.. only this was more classy and less homey than Sonja's.



They had nice pink interiors...



and deliciously looking and perfectly made cupcakes...



I tried only one since it was so expensive.. and damn was it too sweeeeet.



The day was almost over. I walked back to school to catch the next school bus going back to my Bart stop.... until.... I saw 2 sets of cleanly shaven, real live dicks - BUWAHAHAHAHA!! F*CK!!! These two men were walking, completely naked. They weren't homeless because they were really clean and flawless (LOL, can't believe I noticed that.) My jaw just dropped and found myself laughing hard. People around me, especially the girls were laughing as well. It was funny because they were walking around as if they were 'normal' people. ABSURD!! I didn't take a photo though, others may think I was some pervert. Lol. Yun lang.

So many bridges in this city. This is the bay bridge I saw from the school bus window on the way home. A day in the life of... hohum. Will miss this city when I leave ;/ .
