a sunny day in boston

Last Thursday, Lindy happened to be in Boston on a job interview. We met up to try Berryline in Harvard Square, a new frozen yogurt place. I really love these frozen yogurt places that are cropping up now, which I think must take a cue from Korean patbingsu cafes, with the unflavored, sour yogurt, and fruit and cereal toppings. Lindy had blueberry yogurt with kiwi, and I had plain yogurt with strawberry, kiwi, and coconut (mmmmm!) By the way, Berryline was founded by Harvard and MIT post-docs! I think nothing is more refreshing than cold, sour yogurt, heaped with fruit. (If frozen yogurt is not your thing, then in this hot weather I'd recommend going to your nearest J.P. Licks and trying their new Fresh Banana Oreo flavor. Lip-smackingly delicious.)

Then we strolled for a bit around Harvard Square, stopping by at Tokyo Kid and Black Ink. It reminded us of the long trek we made to Harvard and Porter Square freshman year. It was nice catching up with my old roomie.

And since my friend Tracey works with Lindy's best friend from high school, Lindy got to have another surprise reunion. Yay for sunny weather, walks outside, and catching up =)

boston visit

someone was complaining that i hadn't written an entry in a while. so here you go. i'm updating my blog. the end.

just kidding. a long time since i've updated my blog means lots of randomness. let's see... i spent the last weekend in boston, visiting friends and going to anime boston. i managed to finish my costume of one of my favorite anime characters in time:



i got to visit with many friends that I've missed, and eat at many places i've missed =) It was a good trip.

i went to this sushi place on Boylston Street that had exactly 1,000 paper cranes on the walls:



and i saw that cloud at the convention, who i thought was pretty hot-- and it's a girl =P

Someone has been taking me on cute dates. Hiking here , and then to an arcade that had a Pop 'n Music machine -- this version!

i am so psyched about this weekend! i am going to san francisco with friends, stopping by japantown to eat the best mochi ever and browse through craft books at kinokuniya... then heading to a vivenne westwood exhibit... yes you heard me right, a vivienne westwood exhibit, aren't you jealous?? and then watching spiderman 3 at the metreon.

wheeee! i will tell you how it goes ^___^
