Back from States

I'm back from the states.

Ask me if I enjoy this trip very much, I'll say "80%". The 20% will go to the sucky Chinese food that I ate for 2 days. I didn't go to San Francisco to eat Chinese hotpot, I want their oversize burgers! Luckily for me I get to eat Burger King and Taxi back there, their burgers and fries are twice the size that we see in Singapore and the menu of BK is totally different. American don't take chili and I can't find even find one darn packet of chili in the entire restaurant to go with fries; have to eat it with no taste.

American food = tasteless; unless you like the original taste of potato



I can't stereotype, their pizzas are heavenly.


Pretty nothing much to shop back there as their apparel brand's are mainly Billabong, Quiksliver, Reef, No fear, O'Neill, Fox, Paul Frank, Hurley etc. I pass.

The prices of all those brands are almost the same after adding an 8.5% tax by the government. However there's this one brand "American Apparel" which I saw their white skinny @ USD90++, I was thinking of buying it but there's no time for me to try it on, it was lunch time btw. Bought one Levi black skinny later on instead :]

Fisherman's Wharf. Welcome to the Bay Area!


Hard Rock Cafe San Francisco

I went Intel for a short talk about their microprocessors and motherboards. Nothing much, chips, chips and chips.




Universities that I visited: Stanford, UCLA, USC, USF and West Valley College.

Building of Imperfections, spot the flaws


Local graff, Jw this is for you! lol


One of my favorite places is Apple Executive Briefing Centre. Loads of cool stuffs there, I Phone, I TV, I Mac with a more powerful OS, I Pod Touch. Bought my Apple shirt there.




Universal Studio was fun as we get to see special effects, props, blue screen, locations and blah blah blah, Desperate Housewife was shot there as the houses are exactly the same, Spiderman 1, 2 and 3 was done there too, a NY city make up of wood and artificial bricks. Transformers were there too. Evan Almighty's Ark was there and the waves are done specially using blue screen, they housed the biggest blue screen in the world. A Street named after Steven Spielberg, impressive huh?




Wars of the World

Sadly, didn't get to see the real Hilton


Cars! Ferrari, Porsche, Bmw, Bentley and my favorite FORD MUSTANG!


I went Beverly Hills and Hollywood Boulevard on flight day. Prada, Gucci, Lv, Chanel, you name it. We did not get down the coach as it went pass the streets of Beverly Hills. Headed down to Hollywood Boulevard to have our break, saw a movie scene going on the main road, Yes, I saw Will Smith, standing tall and big and black, Oops. I think he's filming stuff like being the last man on earth or something.

Nothing great on Day01 except some duty free shoppings and phototakings at Taipei International Airport.
