This & That with Myself

有沒有人不曉得雪上加霜什麼意思?

這裡有一個很好的例子…

四月的羅蘭絲下雪了, 就在今早, 球隊昨天剛剛輸得讓人心碎, 還有, 張國榮的葬禮…四月八日似乎不是什麼好日子. 所以, 為了表示我對這一切的默哀, 今天我特地曠課一節, 好好的閉目養神一番.

其實, 我已經失眠了好一陣子, 是不是從我知道我無法回家那天開始? 想不起來了, 只知道, 回去, 很無奈, 留下, 很傷感. 但暑假還是要過, 沒法改變的事, 也不必再勉強. 看看能做些什麼吧! 應該又會去旅行, 已經在計劃了, 去哪裡到不是很重要, 只希望能象上次去加州那樣, 精彩, 難忘! 多走走看看, 這麼大的一個國家, 還有好多東西待我發掘呢!

雪停了, 可是太陽還是不出來. 真是的.

一點點的憂鬱
一點點的哀愁
一股氣質

淡淡地
毋須太多的高貴
高雅而不失
那股依舊

鐘情與多年以前
再一次 翻開理由的字典
問號重現

喜歡就是喜歡
喜歡就是拒絕疑問

Stupid me..I just accidentally delated my 2 posts…anyway, sorry for those who left me comments on that! I will remember them from my heart or you can always leave another one!

What a long long day for me, I guess I just don’t get use to work 8 hrs a day and have no plan on weekend anymore After my May Madness, I am going to be a good girl in June. Continue my yoga, salsa, belly dance, whatever things that will inspire me in different way besides…having fun and drinking Or maybe I can do both together??!!

Alright, enough BS…time to bed!

SLEEEEEPPP! Gosh, feel like I go back to my college life. After my 4 hours long nap, now I am totally awake, at 11:30pm.

Today was a horrible day for me, my brain just didn’t work and my eyes just couldn’t stay open.  I was sitting in front of the computer, thinking…why the time passed soooo slow. When you need more time, you never have enough, when you want it goes faster, it always slow down. I can’t really complain anyway, time is the only thing that makes Bill Gates and I equal, we only have 24 hrs a day.

TGIF…I deserve some serious fun this weekend! It has been a crazy but unforgettable month for me. May Madness! I hope this month will end with precious moment and great memories! Alright, I should sort my laundry out and ready for my trip tomorrow!

My first enlightenment after being a 9-5pm rush rat- you can really take advantage of all these upscale places in Finiancial District by meditating during lunch time.

It is fascinating while sitting at the center of Rincon Center and surrounded by the human noise, the piano and the artificial waterfall.

And I still can’t belive I am here! I thought I am suppose to be somewhere at the beach with this little secret…

I heard bad things about Yosemite National Park. Too crowded, too commercialize, too…. ok, those might be truth, but definitely not this time of the year! I got lucky; avoided all the summer travelers and fully enjoyed my trip!

It was absolutely amazing to see so many waterfalls around you. To be honest, I have never seen so many waterfalls in my life. Before we even reach the entrance to Yosemite National Park, we couldn’t wait to take picture with the beautiful scenery. I really miss the beauty of nature, well, San Francisco itself is a magnificent product by the mother of earth, but Yosemite is different.

The air is different, the trees are different, and the road is different… Everything that is ordinary becomes extraordinary here. Or maybe, it is because I am different? I was extremely excited; everything I saw was surrounded with halo, it is just like heaven! I think if we take away all the cars, people and buildings, everywhere can be as gorgeous as Yosemite.

We went to Vernal Falls through The Mist Trail. Well, before the trip, I did prepare a raincoat for the “rain”, not for the “rain like mist”! We all got wet while hiking up to Vernal Falls. Luckily the weather was really good and sunny, we all took a rest and dried ourselves at the peak of Vernal Falls. At that point, I also realized I wore a wrong outfit and shoes, but so what, I was going to make it to the top!

The peak of Vernal Falls was not very impressive after a 1.4 miles hike. But it was kind of cool to stand so close to the edge at where the water starts falling down. It was just weird to see a small creek can create such a big splash! I took some pictures and rest besides the edge of waterfalls, enjoying this view with many others. If you hang out with me for a while, you will notice I like to go to places that are exclusive, especially when I visit national parks or beaches. I didn’t get that kind of exclusive feeling, that’s what missing so far. But I am sure if I can make it to a higher peak, that “exclusive feeling” might come along 

Maybe that was what motivated me to move on to Nevada Falls. I actually enjoyed this trail more than the Vernal Falls trail because it was more challenging and the view was awesome! Nevada Falls is also a bigger waterfall and much higher than Vernal Falls. This time, our team went separately, some people didn’t make it to the top, and I spent sometimes hiking by myself with no one else around me. It was a very sensational feeling, I just felt totally awaken and alive, because I could hear my own breathing and heartbeats along with the low echo surrounded the mountains. 

Finally we reached the peak! It was great to stand up high! Even we were still surrounded by other mountains, it was definitely better than the peak at Vernal Falls.

I think hiking can be addictive, I was all out of water but still determine to go up. When we finally reached there, we ended up drinking mountain water, which according to a stranger at the peak, you have to take a small risk to drink the water. It actually taste pretty good, but still, I was kind of worry and tried my best not to think of what human or animals did at the upper stream! We also met a guy who works at the park; he was the one who taking care of all the modernized restrooms along the trail. For 27 years, he has been hiking up and down everyday! I truly admire him and a little jealous as well, I would rather work at outdoors than in this cold, windowless office!

Of course, for all the experienced travelers out there, you will know choosing your companions is crucial! No matter where you go, if you go with the wrong person, you won’t even smile in front of the Eiffel Tower! I am glad to go with all these fun people; even I just know them…err…during this trip?

Hmm..I have been trying really hard to finish up my Yosemite trip journal..but looks like it won’t happen before I head to Monterey! Ahh…anyway, hope I can catch up with my blog later Have a great weekend my friends

Finally I can visit Yosemite National Park, mmmMMmm and smell the great outdoor! But I just find out we are going to stay in a camp like lodging. Well, I have been trying to avoid camping anywhere close to wild animals for a long time, this time is just an exception. ( Just like I started drinking Tequilla again )

Not that I scare of bears or monkeys, I just don’t want to disturb them and accidentally leave anything that will threathen their life. There are so many irrespossible campers out there do not have a clue about how the nature works, these people are the biggest threat to the nature!

After decided where to camp, the first thing we should do is check out all the rules and how to avoid animals and keep our nature ‘as natural as’ possbile. It is usually very simple to follow the rules , as long as you don’t think you can do what ever you want and go wherever you want (like…hiking off track and step on some very precious plants!) Think like a bear, think like a tree, think like a grass…whenever you are making decision to keep your stuff or even to move a step further.

Just some "green" thoughts for today, anyway, I am out for the weekend!! YAAY!
