San Fran!

Jun 11, 2006 22:37

Summer is shaping up to be kind of crappy so far, the only reason being that school is taking up so much time. Since it is a shorter semester, everything is being crammed in which adds up to 8 to 12 hour days at school at least 3 days a week and shadowing twice a week until July. Once July hits, I'll have 5 day weekends so that will be nice and I'll finally be able to enjoy my summer. At least I'm not playing with dead bodies like last summer I guess!

I'm playing softball in the Mount Pleasant league with my class's team. It's lots of fun so far even though we aren't that great!

I just got back from San Fran a week ago, so I want to write about what we did each day. It was lots of fun and I have tons of pics if anyone wants to see them!

Saturday
-We took a 6:30 am flight and the crew was very entertaining
-Lacey's luggage got damaged on the flight and they wouldn't pay!
-Fiasco with the shuttle to our hotel
-Went out to lunch and almost died at how expensive everything it down there
-Registered for the conference
-Went to a Giant's game, the one before Barry Bond's hit his homer to beat Babe Ruth
-Went out to a bar called Foley's

Sunday
-Trolley/cable car ride
-I ate a giant ice cream sundae at Ghirdehlli square
-They give you free chocolate when you go in the store
-Drank a Strongbough at 10 am
-Tried seafood at Fisherman's Wharf - yuck
-Went to Sausilito, saw seals, and got burnt
-Went by Alcatraz
-Conference stuff
-Went to a piano bar called Lefty O'Doul's and had a blast but walked home by myself...whoops

Monday
-Conference all day

-Went back to Lefty's but it wasn't nearly as fun

Tuesday

Wednesday

-Wine tasting at 3 wineries
-Jess got her hair eaten by a llama
-Lunch at a place that gave you free cheese samples
-Quick stop at Sausilito again
-Partied with the classmates in a hotel for awhile
-Went back to Lefty's but it sucked again so went back to Foley's
-Drank a mojito with Jess

That's a very abbreviated version of my trip, but it was a blast. And yes, I did learn things at the conference.

Jess and I went to the Rascal Flatts concert on Friday at the Palace. It was so fun! There was a girl who had to have been on drugs next to me, so that was annoying. Other than that, they sang all my favorite songs, so I was happy. They were really good live.

I'm missing all my friends. Sorry I've been bad and haven't been so good at keeping in touch. I'll try harder. Next weekend is Amye's baby shower. I can't wait to see her!

Oh, and my brother finally took me for a ride in his new Corvette yesterday!
