New Asia

so, i have some things to update you all on. let's start with yesterday. yesterday was pretty uneventful until night. we went to a new dining place, Davis Diner. i'm pretty much sick and tired of cafeteria food, and i heard Davis Diner (which is another eating place in the upperclassman residence hall) was pretty good. they have burgers and milkshakes there. we went there to eat, and it was actually pretty good. i had a "Diner Burger" and a strawberry milkshake. not too bad :-D. after dinner i visited an asian food market. it was called "New Asia" or something like that. i went with my friend Loc, and we bought some food there. as soon as i walked in *wham!* that chinese market smell. haha..it was weird. almost like being in chinatown. but they had all of these japanese candies, and the senbei they have at home :-). i was getting all excited because i found some asian products that i could read. lol. but i bought some candies, and roasted canned unagi which is actually very good on rice. so i'm excited about that :-D!

today....let's see. today was my short day, but it seemed like the longest day of the week. i had philosophy and english. 2 of the most boring classes. but the thing was, i wasn't feeling too well today. i was in philosophy and i felt really sick. soo...as bad as it sounds, i forced myself to sleep in that class. it was between sleeping or throwing up. i chose sleep. but today i finally handed in the last of my papers, including that killer 8 paged one for world literature....so i'm free of that! :-D although next week is midterms, as i mentioned before, but we'll worry about that a bit later. i hope tomorrow i don't feel sick. well...other than that, today i pretty much slept a lot. i tried to sleep off the sickness, which did help a bit, but i'm still a little queezy. let's hope tomorrow is a better day. so i shall leave you at that for now...and i'll update later!


by the way...if anyone knows a different name for the fruit "tamarind," could you let me know? it's been bothering me all day. i know there's another name for it, either in japanese, chinese, or local language. :-P thanks!
