idled my time away yesterday! it was veterans day.... a holiday for us but not for stanford ppl i dunno why? nor duke ppl for that matter.. veterans day is supposed to be a day meant for honoring US war veterans...i think! haha as its name suggests.... baked instant choc chip walnut cookies in the morning, then went with faith to berkeley's 4th street to walk walk.... it was a pretty nice andclassy little place.... with so many artsy shops and lovely paper stores that just made me go mad.. haha. but there were all beyond my budget though. so could only see.. cannot buy. also went to the dicovery channel's store... and i saw this cute innovative soft toy meant to teach kids music. it's an octopus with "squeaky" tentacles... each one making a different note.... it comes with this little instruction card with instructions on how to play mary had a little lamb by squeezing the various tentacles. supposed to be done with kids so that parent and kid can learn together... how smart and fun! =) also saw a book on pyramids, which made me realize that i didn't even know what the seven ancient wonders of the world were! so i went to check it out..... sadly most of them are ruined already and apparently not all seven of them existed at the same time.
then came back in late afternoon and did a few pages of reading..... then in the end at night spent half the time chatting online and packaging some of the cookies i intended to give away..... oh well. but i really enjoyed myself yesterday, cept all the procrastinating.... haha since when was i last so happy?
