I couldn't help but love this song very much.

I love you, say we're together baby, you and me
I can only give my life and show you all I am
in the breath I breathe
I will promise you my heart
and give you all you need if it takes some time
and if you tell me you don't need me anymore
that our love won't last forever
I will ask you for a chance to try again
to make our love a little better,
ooh...

I love you, say we're together baby,
say we're together, oh
I need you, I need you forever baby, you and me

You say you hardly know exactly who I am
so hard to understand
But I knew right from the start, the way I felt inside,
if you read my mind
and if you tell you don't need me anymore
that our love won't last forever, no
I will ask you for a chance to try again
to make our love a little better

I love you, say we're together baby,
say we're together, oh
I need you, I need you forever baby, you and me

Remember when you used to hold me,
remember when you made me cry
You said you loved me, oh, you did, yes you did

I love you, say we're together, baby, say we're together, oh
I need you, I need you forever, baby, you and me.

 

There are people who deserve you and people who don’t. 

If you have someone in your life who takes you for granted or doesn’t give you the respect that you deserve, leave them in the past where they belong.

It’s not so hard to explain what I feel about San Francisco. But its going to be a long post. ^__^ coz there are so many things I love about San Francisco. So many things! When I first arrived it was like she was smiling at me and I enjoyed her warmth welcome very much.

I came to the U.S because of work. But I came to San Francisco because I wanted to find a place I can stop by and relax before I have to bear with the 20 hrs flight back home, and guess what I pick the right place. =)

 

We were crazy about this city. The first day we arrive. We walked the street all day, all over town and people smiled, friendly. The city was beautiful. And Most of the time people are the most things in San Francisco I enjoyed about. They are so many cultures ad ethnicities there. That makes me feel no difference being Asian anymore. I can see people cycling and jogging. They smile at each other more often. I then slowly realizing that I love San Francisco.

 

Some said San Francisco is young. You never get bore and always find some place to go something to do there. I think that is because there are so many cool places there including bas and restaurants.
But to me San Francisco is a little bit of everything… whatever East or West.

 

I also love coffee there. I begin the day with coffee and I often ordered cappuccino and espresso. There are many coffee shops around the city. The city is not that big and there are huge hills, but you can never get lost. I have a problem after one day I spent walked like crazy there. So we decided to take a train to explore the city. You can buy one day ticket and you can tour around by cable car, train or bus. I enjoyed cable car so then I can easily see all of San Francisco.

  

Pier39, San Francisco

 

We also visited Pier39. It was fun walked around. It’s a great place to shop and eat at and they got arcade too which is also great. I think my favorite part of being at Pier39 is just being able to spent time in a nice environment and friendly atmosphere and when I look around I see the joy and happiness around. And its not everyday that you get a chance to see sea lions… right? =) There were totally cute.

we enjoyed our dinner in Bangkok. I meant it. The resto called "Bangkok". They served Phadthai there and it was amazing and also Kuayteaw Kua Kai another kind of Thai noodle as well. Both are not expensive but yummy!

 

 

Sunday morning, we had breakfast at Irish resto near Pier39. It was raining and we can’t go outside so we decided to spend morning having a nice breakfast there. The foods were amazing and I really enjoyed it there. I like to see they make iris coffee which I’m not allowed to try—as I don’t drink alcohol.  

 

 

 

We walked around again in the evening and also we decided to have a dinner at "Bangkok" again-- the same Thai resto I ordered Crab Fried Rice. It was delicious but I enjoyed Phad thai the most.

 

We were exhausted but I still want to buy something before I could fall asleep in the cozy bed and say good bye to the city tomorrow as my colleague needs to catch the early morning flight...

 

Christmas was wonderful, my parents adored the quilt, my cousin loved her dolly sized quilt (which I failed to photograph), and everyone loved my hand stamped gift tags and cloth gift bags.  I got some great new vintage tins and glassware from my sister.  so I'm having fun researching and displaying them. Got the sandwich/grill/ waffle maker from my parents, i'm super excited to try that out.

Now it's time to clean up the studio and move on to my next projects.  The amount of blue fuzz that is all over my studio is amazing, it's like it snowed.  my poor machine needs a good cleaning and oiling, a new needle, and some general TLC.  My JANOME is such a work horse, it trucked through 1000 seams on this quilt without complaint.  I wish I could take it out for a drink or something to show my appreciation... lol.

New Year's Resolution #1: Create more, complain less.

So I got a laptop bag from Erika (thank you) and a gloomy from Charles (thanks). I hate the idea of riding around with a HP devil computer logo and I have a lot of Gloomy. With the help of MANKILLER-FANG industries, I had help making my idea come to life. So. I'm pleased!
