Sunny the Ride

There hasn't been much that's been newsworthy...trust me. With college, friendships and just life itself...I've hardly had the time. It doesn't mean, all the same that I don't have any news. There have been a couple transitions. With the oncoming summer, I'll be posting more frequently. Heh, let's begin. It's a little late in the week, so I guess I'll start from Thursday since that was the most eventful.
Tuesday wasn't as mind-numbing as I expected it to be. After all, I had the day off; William had the day off; and we decided to hang out. It was nice out and he wanted to check out Uniqlo...so why not? All the same, I couldn't leave the house unkempt. After a two-hour hold-up, we promptly departed. Before Uniqlo, Will suggested we stop at Forbidden Planet-even better. With most of my summer wardrobe out of the way, I can finally expand my manga collection.


On our way, just an offhand picture...that damn sun.

In spite of all the stops we made (bank, bakery), we made it to Forbidden Planet just before 5. We spent about, hm, 20 minutes at most in there. I saw so much I wanted-as well as what I needed.As a bibliophile, it's almost like a tease to be in a bookstore,teeming with manga, hardly being able to walk out without more than 2 books. If it's not 3 or more, than I can't stand to be in one. Payday's only 3 days away, still. It wasn't long before we grew weary of window shopping so we took our leave to the 6 train. I may go back Friday, though, shh...


On the 5


Forbidden Planet

Although I've only been there once with Tery, we found Uniqlo without much incident. We immediately began scaling each and every floor. If you're partial to vivid, eye-catching colors...Unqlo has color, and every top that comes to mind. While they don't carry shirts with the company logo embossed brazenly at the front, their quality offsets it. After all, who wants to advertise a company every other shirt? I know I don't. William really couldn't find much that interested him, so I had to intercede. After scarmbling about for nearly an hour, we were set. I had 2 camisoles and 3 tanks; William had two shirts and a pair of socks. Next was...anywhere else that caught our interest. After browsing in Yellow Rat Bastard, we went to China Town which was just only 10 minutes out of our way (I'm just now finding this out). After a couples games, Will grabbed Subway; I grabbed McDonald's and after 8 we were on our way home.

Will gets paid next Thursday so this won't be the last excusrion we'll be making. After all, we have a lot more ground to cover...and we'll need Marcine with us the next time.


Train ride home...

Oh my. Sounded like you two enjoyed yourselves. That's good. I wish I could have been there. The thought of being in a store filled with books,(that I might be interested in, and don't have to get because it's required-college). Maybe next time though. I'm so looking foward to summer 09,and spending time with my two best mates.

P.S. I notice that you're making your hair come back natural. I like. Trish got a little puff.
