FRIDAY
Slept only an hour, got up, took the twins to Meijer and see teacher, Emily got frigging mad at me again, which don’t wanna mention again. Michael for sure not coming… and he ended up not able to give us a ride either -.-“” anyway nothing much got to Orlando, found a place to sleep. can’t believe they are all chairs only…and not even line up like EVERY OTHER airport… so I slept very awkward for few hours, Yumi didn’t sleep at all, Florian slept whole night, but still complains about no sleep-.-“
SATURDAY
So… we got up at around 6am at the airport, haha~~ took us a long time to decided getting the insurance or not. So I called mom, sorry woke her up early, she said we should get it, just because if we don’t get it, when we return car they will check forever to try to find something to charge us, and if we get it, all of us can drive =P so we got on the road and got here around 1pm, because of traffic at the end 4-5miles took us an hour-.-“ then we went to Adventura Mall, keke^^ We shopped Wet Seal, I got an orange dress^^ ohohh~~ can u belive it, I bought a dress! Hahaa~~ maybe I won’t wear it again when I go back to BG XDD and esp in HK~ haha~~ we had really good crepe too! Ohohh~~ then we came to check in to our hotel, haha~ outside look okay nice, inside look kinda crappy =P the tub clog very badly..haa~~ water is kinda yellow too~ its okay! At nite we got lost again to try to find Outback~ the highway system here is fucking messed up-.-“ we live right by the highway which has maybe 5 different route overlapping each other-.-“ fucking confusing! Haha..worse driving or navigating experience ever! Haha~ anyway, we got there found a grocery store shopped there, and found out Outback take an hour to wait-.-“ so we decided to buy take out, but I can’t believe that we got lost really bad again! Haha~ there highway system is reallllllllly bad-.-“ so our food got kinda cold when we come back.hahaha~~ o well =P still, I got my big piece of bloody meaty steak.hhee~~
SUNDAY
Woke up, Yumi and I made Florian waited for us to get ready forever..haha! sorry, now its another time to complains about Michael not coming, coz Florian had to suffer being with 2 girls.haha~~ took us getting lost little bit, got to the beach^^ but crazy traffic, and took us over an hour to pass through the traffic and finally find parking spot. Haha~ Yumi and I found Payless Shoes too^^ so we got very cute shoes!! Sooo happy to see the sea^^ SOO BLUE~~ soo happy^^ but the sun wasn’t too hot, we know that we can’t really get tan. O well~ it was very cold when sun going away too, super windy!! The water was really cold too~ that’s why no one really swim. SERIOUSLY.NO ONE speak English here, even people who look super white or super black, they still speak Spanish-.-‘ wht the hell? I really dun understand.. haha.. and people keep speaking Spanish to me and Yumi, do we look like someone cans speak Spanish?!?! We are frigging Asian! Haha~~ when we were laying on the beach, some guy came by gave us wrist band for this club, he said VIP no admission for us, asked us r we all girls…Florian was away, so we say yes. Ha~ after on the beach, we came back to around our hotel to look for food, we thought we can’t find anything to eat really, but we saw this Korean restaurant, Yumi and I were soo excited..haha!! REAL Korean food^^ but I think somehow Caesar Salad for breakfast add lot of super spicy food made my stomach very weird. We thought after dinner, we shower, and can nap a little before going out, but there wasn’t any time really. After getting ready, stopped by gas station to get stomach medicine, and went back to the beach. OMG… that club line was sooo long, and we found out wasn’t VIP and still need to pay $20… o well.. at least good that they only make guys wait in line… girls can always get in first, Florian should thanks us. Haha~ but his stupid ass as usual bring his own drink and he got caught got thrown out and he got in again-.-“ there was soo many weirdo/funny dancing people. Haha~~ didn’t dance with anyone though XDD Since Florian drinks, Yumi is too scared to drive, so I drove back! Ohoh… I thought it was very easy n calm at first, but someone honked me and made me very nervous later >.< Florida people are very rude, they honked for EVERYTHING…even if u slow down just for 1-2sec to figure out what street we are on, they honk.. they are worse driver I have ever seen! Anyway, I got everyone home safely… don’t worry!haha~ after showering again, we didn’t sleep till almost 6am-.-“
MONDAY
Today I think Yumi was kinda annoyed that I wouldn’t get up, but I was really totally unconscious until almost 1030am. I really couldn’t hear her at all. Sorry~!! >_< we went to the beach again^^ FIRST TIME we got somewhere without getting lost or going to the wrong way!!!! AWESOME!! Haha~~ then we walked around for awhile search for something to eat, but everything its so $... so we decided to eat at some small diner type of thing, thought would be cheaper-.-“ but it was horrrrible!!! We waited for over an hour for our food, only us waited for so long. Everyone got there way after us ordering, ate and left already before we got our food. WTF?! Maybe because we dun speak Spanish! Haha~~ we were thinking we just won’t give them tips, but I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT 15% TIPS WERE ADDED IN OUR BILL-.-“ WTFFF???!! Anyway then we lay on the beach for a long time again^^ finally we can feel the heat and feel like we are tanning. Haha~ but since the sun was toward one side already, we had to keep changing position to try to get even tan.haha~ but I think my right side butt is more tan than the left.haha~~ We lay there till around 4-5pm, left and started to go to Bayside Market, only 15mins away from the beach, it is very nice place^^ Yumi and I got some Indian necklace! Very pretty~~!! We just ate at the food court, haha~ coz we can’t afford eating nice everyday =P but I think it was very ncie too!! We still gotta sit outside to enjoy the weather and the view to eat…on second floor too!! Better than downstairs those expensive food.haha~ and we had live latin music playing near us.. it was soo awesome!! I really wish I can go to a club like that…or just go to their country, so I can dance with those music on the street..so much fun!! After dinner, we went to see those live music for a little bit, we were dancing little bit too, haha~ but Yumi think its crazy, so we didn’t do too much =P I wished Emily was there..haha..coz I think she would be crazy with me..hehehe^^ then I got some mango and passion fruit jelato ice cream and head back to our hotel called it an early night. Coz we are all tired from last nite, and tomolo we will get up early to drive back to Orlando, and stop by Palm Beach^^ so far, im really enjoying this, coz pretty slow and relaxing =P and we keep having very nice dinner^^ o yea, now toward the end of our trip in Miami, we finally know our way around pretty well!! But kinda useless, coz we are leaving, and I am pretty sure none of us will ever come back here soon. Coz we all hate here sooo much! Haha~ I mean I love the colorful, warm sunny weather, and all the buildings are very cool architecture!! But OMFG Yumi and I also agree that now I have been here, WE HATE HERE!! Haha~~ O yea, for both Yumi and I, we think this is first time ever we broke so many laws-.-“ thanks for Florian’s driving~ haha~ we are super lucky that didn’t get pull over yet-.-“ left U turn in red light, illegal U turn, run over red light and stop sigh, turn right on red when it said its not allow, turn into wrong side of the street, 20miles over the speed limit-.-“ hahaa~ yeah… we were having heart attack XDD if I am braver and more experience on highway I would totally take over~ hahaa!!
TUESDAY
Got up pretty early and I think first time renting a place with friends and check out ON TIME! Haha~~ usually the case is someone go check out first, but we never actually leave the room till about 2hours after check out time! Haha~~ then we started to drive again!! To the Palm Beach… it is soo big, so long and so many idea, we had no idea where the actual beach is, went to one island, very high class and expensive, but there was no beach, went to another one, couldn’t find the beach either…haha~ and we decided to leave, as we leave we found the beach…haha!! but it was kinda crappy and small… it is def. not the one everybody goes and talks about…haha!! we had subway, fast and easy^^” then went out to the beach…holy frigging cow….sooooooo super windy-.-“”” if u put down something, everything get blow away!!! So Yumi and I just ended up keep picking up shells~ this beach’s shells are hugeeee~~ we got like a quarter gallon full of shells XDD we also found a very cute yellow crab…and a few guys were picking up shells also, the funny thing was they were as excited as me and Yumi XDD hahaha!! That’s cute =P Anyway only there for an hour or so, started to head back to Orlando~~ took us quite a long time-.-“ checked in the hotel, can’t believe the first time they gave us a un-made totally grossed room~ this room is soo much smaller than last one… ha~ we really can’t complain about last room. At least they had microwave and fridge…here we need to get ice all the time to make stuffs cold~~ and only 1 small mirror, sink outside of the bathroom…kinda weird! Then we went to BW3 for dinner, we thought would be something fast and easy-.-“ but totally not~~!! We got grocery before dinner, coz last time we have the car, but that place was soo expensive-.-“ ridiculous!!! We waited for over an hour in BW3-.-“ and my food finally came, can’t believe they forgot Yumi’s order, we were so mad!! The waitress didn’t even believe us-.-“ until the pretty manager came out =P hahaa~ she went to get Yumi’s food right away by herself^^” but still, we were fucking starving…poor Yumi, she was ssoo super pissed!! And in between that madness, 2 guys walked by long time ago and stared at us~~ later, this one guy came to us and try to ask me and Yumi go join them at their table, I just told him our story and we are in hurry to go to airport return car, so he left =P poor guy, some other tables filled with people were laughing him being unsuccessfully talking to girls or something O.O anyway, I told Yumi story later, coz she was busy complaining about her food =P she said I shoulda tell that guy how about tomorrow…haha! coz we might able to find rides and no need to get taxi XDD so I said sorry I am not good at this stuffs… I am not like u always picking up guys, I only know how to reject them…never done that before..haha!! anyway, back to airport… no more crazy driving…whew~~!! Took a taxi back, cost like $45… American taxi is ridiculously expensive-.-“ came back didn’t sleep till almost 2am=.=”
WEDNESDAY
WOW~~ really surprisingly we got up at 7am! Well, our shuttle leave at 745am, we were suppose to get up at 6am, but no one did. And at 7am Yumi suddenly screamed SHIT..ITS 7am~~ so I totally bounced up and got ready super quick~ haha!! we made it the bus, and got to Disney ^^ sooo exciting..ohohh~~!! Can’t believe we made it to see the park open!! Totally first time ever!~~~!!! And since it was soo early, not so many people, and we had really good planning!! WE MADE IT TO ALL THE RIDES…except roller coaster and little kids stuffs!! because we were looking around at all, when we get to each area, we got fast pass for one, and go play other 1 or 2, and go back to fast pass one!! Can’t believe how great that is! Hahaha~~ the longest wait we had was 5mins! Haha~~ Being in Disney…really its magical… hehee! I might not ever get sick of it, I think I will always be a little kid when I am there!! Yumi and I screamed and ran at so many thing like a little kid! Hahaha~~ but this park is crazy!! It is EXACTLY SAME WITH TOKYO DISNEY!! i finally gotta go to Adventure of Pooh, Buzz Light Year ride, and Haunted Mansion, because it was closed in Tokyo when I went, the Buzz ride was 3hours wait, so we didn’t. We all went on Splash Mountain too~~ the 5 floor high drop boat thingy…hahahaXDD can’t believe I did that =P but it wasn’t scary… just I hate waiting before going down!! Yumi and I bought the picture..haha!! because we made the peace sigh while dropping down! Hahahaha~~ very funny =P I feel kinda bad for Florian because he just follow us girls screaming and running around! Haha~~ but he was totally like a little kid too -.-“ XDD because we always lost him and he always disappeared. It was so super nice weather for Disney, breezy, super sunny, but not hot at all~~ it woulda be super cold if we are on a beach though =P I still can’t believe we went on so many rides! Haha~~ since it wasn’t hot, we didn’t had to spend a lot of money either…and all of us are so used to not eating from school so we didn’t spend money eating much either.haha! we only had redbull for breakfast, we didn’t eat lunch till around 1-2pm, we all got a HUGEEE turkey leg… ha… can u believe it I ate turkey XDD coz everyone was eating it and it smelled sooo good. But I only finished half…so big.. and was getting too boring taste. The only other food we had in the park was a slushy..haha! we were finished pretty early already, just walk around the whole park again for shopping! Hehehee~~ I got a big alien towel, a very ball shape piglet, OOO~~ really really cooL~~!! There was this Mr.potato head buffet thingy!! Haha~~ u can make your own potato head with as much as thing you want, as long as you can fill it up in this small box! Haha~ I can’t believe how much stuffs I can put in his ass! XDD haha! I got many thing for Mrs.potato head that Emily gave me for Christmas too! I am soo excited to go back and play with it. HAHAHA XDD then we sat down for about an hour to wait for the firework! It was amazing!!!!! I think because they didn’t have night parade today, so they have extra cool and long firework!!! Ohoohoohoh~~~!! WOW~~~!! The firework’s narration was about never stop believe dreams and wishes, as long as you have dreams and wishes… everything will come true. Ha~ made me kinda touched.. dunno why! I know it was more for little kid… but reminded me what Florian said the other day, he said I reminded him of himself when he was a kid and pre-teen, always happy and have so many dreams and goals. Hahaa~~ so I guess I am still very little kid?! Or it is good that I still kept that part of me for dreaming when most adults already lost that part of them?!?! As we were walking out to the entrance Yumi and I were talking about how this was our best Disney trip ever, and Florian suddenly said… this is his first time going to any Disney!! OMG OMG~~ hahahaa… we had NO IDEA AT ALL~ now feel kinda bad… ahha~ that’s why he had no glue about anything =P and just followed us running around~~ haha~~ but its kinda funny that we went to Disney with him for the first time! Haha~~
Now craziness begins, apparently our shuttle left early-.-“ and no bus really go to our hotel, we were sooo pissed when we call the hotel to ask is there any bus we can take, the guy just keep asking me why don’t you just take a cab?! I am like… I want to take the bus, and he was like ummm…. Yea why don’t you just take a cab-.-“ OMGGGG!!! Anyway, we found out about buses, but we had to change so much, so we ended up taxi! But they said would only cost about $10, ended up $20-.-“so mad, but we had a great great great day!! So should not let that bother us! We just ate at Waffle House coz just right in front of our hotel… went back to our room. 3 of Yumi’s friends came, and took us all the Downtown Disney…Pleasure Island has many many clubs, and you only pay once and can get in to all clubs. Pretty cool~!! But it wasn’t very fun for me.. haha~ I missed Emily soo much XDD no fun at clubs without her~~ coz no one crazy dancing with me =P and I dun wanna dance with guys anyway… never know how to get out of it, or try to carry a weird conversation -.-“ but at least its nice that I am always super tall when I wear high heel, so not many people wanna dance with me. Haha~ last nite only maybe 3 really tall guys came by…ha! This guy rode his bike all the way down from NY-.-“ CRAZY~! Its weird..i think I am pretty much down with clubbing once and for all. I am kinda sick of hiphop music and those kinda dancing-.-“ its so stupid n dumb. i really wish there is a latino music type of club…. Would be soooo much fun!! I wanna dance salsa, ‘mer’rain’gay” (ha~ no idea how to spell), anyway those type of dance. Hehehe!! I should start download more those music… ha~ so I can dance in my apt XDDD anyway, they gave us a ride back.. everyone tired as hell! Yep~
THURSDAY
Today we sleep in, caught the 130pm shuttle to EPCOT, and transfer to Disney bus to one of the resort, and transfer again to downtown Disney, took us 1.5hrs XD when downtown Disney is only 1mile away from us, but we went further to EPCOT and resorts…haha… but it cost us nothing^^” so that’s good!!! Downtown Disney is soo cool, its like I am in another theme park again!! Sooo many stores and so manything to see and take picture with. Haha~ we make our way to Disney Quest, we had no idea what it was, it just said some indoor interactive games place! And you can create your own toys and stuffs! but first thing we went in was to have brunch!! We were all excited that there’s a Cheesecake Factory in there, but it just turn out a very very small counter with only about 8 kind of cheesecake >.< so disappointing. Haha~ well, apparently it was just a huge indoor arcade… ha~ well at least we gotta play a lot of games for free =P there was that Astro Blaster from Tokyo Disney, I am so glad that we didn’t wait in line for 3 hrs to play that in Japan, it was really dumb! haha~~ and there was many virtual game, made us very dizzy! Haha~~ one of those that wear a big helmet and holding something, then u can fight in the game like in real life…. I feel soo super retarded doing that.hahaa~~ look so super stupid from other people’s eye! Hahaa~~ I got a workout from the basketball and boxing game though, my arms were hurting afterward..haha! coz Yumi and I kept competing for the basketball. We walked around more, and waited for a table in Rainforest Café for 1hour and 45mins! Haha~~ but it was awesome meal^^
FRIDAY
Universal Studio day^^ we had to take a taxi to go there, coz no shuttle. Kind of dumb they separated it into two park, Island of Adventure and regular Universal Studio. For both park cost $73, one park cost $69 -.-“ soo dumb! we went to Universal Studio first, and we purchased the FastPass thingy, its kinda cool that we can get into ALL the rides, not like Japan one u pick 1 out of 2 on each ticket. Shriek and Fear Factor Live was the best!!!! Other than that… everything make you wet and dizzy -.-“ it was quite horrible~ haha~!! Shriek was very funny and hidden jokes soo much like the movie. Haha~ and Fear Factor Live was really cooL~!! They have audition for anyone to join it, and no disgusting food eating, only cool stunt! I shoulda try it. Haha~~ the shopping here is not as good at all, everything its kinda stupid to buy, and not cute or pretty, I miss Japan one! Haha~~ the only thing was worth it in the Island of Adventure was the Spider Man ride of coz!!! Was soo looking forward for it!! Ooo… Florian made us go on the Mummy ride,. Totally freaked me out =( it was a short roller coaster >_< scared the shit outta me!! I wouldn’t have been so scared if it wasn’t in complete darkest can’t see where are we going at all. It is not scary roller coaster if I can see and prepare! Suck suck suck!! Afterward I was just shaking so much >.< I couldn’t play too many other things afterward, coz I really got freaked out -.-“ ha. Im weak =P o yea, Florian got totally soaked from the popeye ride… sooooo funny!!! I am so glad I didn’t go on it, coz I was afraid it would scare me more.haha!!! Although Universal Studio has this CityWalk thingy kinda like Disney downtown, but there’s no comparison at all! Haha~
anyway afterward we went back to hotel, got ready and went to Disney downtown, we had McDonald for dinner, coz we need to eat some cheaper food since we spent so much money already.haha! I dunno what got to me, I tried Fillet O Fish again in America… but OMGG~ it was sooooo good!! So I got another one, Yumi too! Hahaa~ we sat outside in front of the water, listen and sing with Disney music that they play in the speaker and drink our peach tea + vodka + lemonade in a water bottle..hahaa!! then we went to Pleasure Island, that’s where all the clubs are. We went into this 70s 80s club, haha~ somehow sadly I know how to sing those songs thanks to my mom I guess! Then we went into this Beach Club, there was a live band…SOOO AWESOME!! They played all the really great + fun songs, I can sing all of them. Haha~ my voice was hurting later XDD and and and there’s are this 2 really cute twins playing in the band! Hahaa!! They sing and play guitar super good too!! WOW WOW WOW!!! =D then we met this hugeee group of guys, apparently they are all on meeting trips with DHL, and they get in free EVERYWHERE in Disney!! soo awesome!! It seems like very fun place for them to work, haha~ coz their boss and even VP was there hanging out together, so funny, Yumi and I met them too, and these guys were like… they r cool~ that’s my boss and that’s the VP! Haha~ and I think almost all the guys in that clubs are from DHL also…!! It was super fun nee~~ especially coz they weren’t like typical club guys that grab you and won’t let you go and totally stick to you…soo annoying!! But these guys were really only wanna have fun^^ they weren’t close to us at all~ haha!! is kind of weird too that one guy is moving to China that part right above HK, and this other guy was in Yumi’s hometown! Haha~ I guess DHL send people everywhere too not only package XDD haha!! it was really fun night except getting frustrated by the drank little boy! Haa~ -.-“”” always wanna break rules/laws and we always have to yell at him-.-“ ha~ and OMG…catching a taxi back drove us crazy, luckily there was a nice guy got one for us, instead of this drank kid messing everywhere=.=” XDD
SATURDAY
Last day in Florida >.< last day to see the sun! Yumi and I thought we can get up early and try to tan one more time, but we totally passed out whole nite!! Didn’t get up till almost 1pm, and we had to catch suttle at 130pm! We went to Disney Downtown again^^ we got Fillet O Fish again! Ha~ Yumi and I together ate 7 of them within about 12hrs! haha~~ we sat under the sun in same place with music n stuffs…so nice^^ then we started to do our last shopping! Haha~~ so dangerous XDD walked a long time, then try to decide where for dinner. We wanted to eat seafood, there’s a crab house, but OMFG… everything on the menu was $30+ nothing we can afford-.-“ ha~ we almost ending up at this kinda family rest. type thing until we found this Cuban rest. ohoohh~ the music is awesome there, and can’t believe the food was too!!!! Soooooo GOOD!! AND OMG… I ATE THIS RICE PUDDING AGAIN!!! That I had with Ryan in Mauca this summer!! It was sooooo good!! I was soo excited to eat it again!
