it's ridiculously hot today, the temp has gone up to 88 F...do the math, that works out to about 31 C, which isn't that bad compared to s'pore...but remember, summer's supposed to be over here. the weather report is marked "severe weather alert", and i have no idea what that's supposed to mean, but i know i'm suffering!
went with my friends this morning to ranch 99, which is the asian supermarket...had to take a bus ride there, which wasn't all that long, but waiting for the bus took forever. went there and had mee pok...amazing! never knew mee pok existed in america. the waiter was from s'pore too...there's something super distinguishing about our accent. we asked him where he was from and he said, "where you're from lah". no further questions.
very enticing walking through the asian supermarket, seeing all the good food there, but all super highly priced...so feasted the eyes only. one of my friends bought egg tarts and very generously shared them with the rest of us. i seem to be eating a lot of egg tarts lately.
got an interview on sunday for a tutoring job i applied for, have to give a presentation on how to write strong thesis statements...pray hard, i really need a job so i won't be so poor! ha...hate this "qiong ren" feeling.
tonight going for some mooncake festival celebration, hope they have good mooncake.
