☆~Mia's life~☆

本來想寫紐約行的part 2的.....可是我又摸太晚了= =

先把比較短的解決掉吧~

為了要heal my broken heat，我跟朋友們殺去seattle downtown的夜店~!!!!

 

其實還有另一個目的!!!! 因為那天的DJ 是black peas eye的will.I.am!!!!!可是...也因為他的關系....我們要付$20的入場費...T^T

其實我真的是跳舞白痴~好在我是酒國英雌~哈!!!!!

那天一位日本人請我們喝了好多酒哦!!!!他整個人也喝到掛....我真的覺得他是平常壓力太過頭了!!!

西雅圖的人感覺都不會跳舞.....我亂搖來搖去也比他們跳的好~真的讓我好意外!哈

在那裡玩到了快三點~好久沒有這樣玩了!!!!  真的玩的很開心!!!!哈~

記得以前去南京的夜店~他們都還會雇用舞者來炒氣氛呢!!!其實西雅圖的夜店也有...可是，他們請來的人...身材比我媽還糟...= =

 

哦~去夜店意外的收獲~被香港人、加拿大人、日本人搭訕!!!哈!!!我果然是要"外銷"的!!!!!

下次!我要去挑戰台灣的夜店!!!!!

we always took the same bus to school and went back home....

gig!!! keep ur promise!!! pls visit me!!!!  i also will go thai to visist u too!!!!!

RA~NA~!!!!

in order one day trip in vancouver, i went to downtown to apply the canada visa.

because they only accept the documents until 10:00 am, i needed to arrive there before 8:00

i took #175 in front of key bank at 7:10....the bus drove to downtown with nonstop!

i was very angry when i wrote the form.....because i don't know how to fill out the form, i called my friend to help me

then....one stuff saw me use the phone, she just blamed/cursed me and ask me to leave!!!

it let me feel very very bad.....i don't wanna apply the visa anymore= =

but....i still applied that

then....when i fill out the form, they have a option....i need to show them my fund proof....

what?!?!?!? i only plan to go there one day...i need the fund proof?!?!?

then, i walked out to make a phone call.....my friend told me i don't need to show that....

when i walked back the office...my number is passed....i need to have a new number....

i pray that...don't let the rude woman to interview me....but....unfortunately, she interviewed me.....i thought i must couldn't pass it!!!

but, i was lucky...she let me pass!!!ha ha ha

 

when i took the bus home....i took the 194 bus to airport to transfer 174...when i jsut got off the 194 bus....i saw the 174 just in front of my bus

then i chased it.....but...it didn't stop.......so....i spent 30 min. to wait for next bus.....so crazy.....= =

by the way, if u are student and u wanna apply canada visa in seattle, u need to bring the below staff

1) passport

2) I20, I94

3) $65(one time) $ 75 (many times)

4) two pieces of 2" photograph

i applied one time visa....so.....one day costs $65!!!!

today~we were invited to join hanson family's friend's party~

their friend are so riccccccccccch!!!!

yummy food & amazing dessert!!

they have their own yacht and bouncing bed and swimming pool in their house~

their house is located next to a lake~~~~so amazing!!!!

i envy them so much!!!!! such a rich family!!!!!

today, i tried the boating!!! that was so cool, we can see the great view(mt. rainier and sunset) when u boating!

my host father-Mark was learning how to ride the jetski!!! actually, i wanna go with him, but i didn't bring substitute clothes...

 i know u was were very happy!!!  T^T

i played the bouncing bed for a while!!!! that's so fun!!!! i wanna have one in my house!!!!

i love this party~and thanks sheila for inviting me to go there!!!!

today~we went to olive garden italy restaurant whcih is located next to south center

when u wait for the seats, they will give u a modern b.b. call!

fairy tale style menu!

their food was amazing!!!

so yummy~~~cheses& creamy noodle!!! but i forgot to take photos on the food><

now, i can understand why all people said that italy food is the best!!!

me, grace, fred and eva share 4 dishes~ it costs 15 per person!!!

but it was worthy!!!!

then......i get fat again....= =

星期六跟 gig & Mai去downtown試了一間local restaurant~ serious pie!!!

 

他們的招牌菜是"手工pizza"~  味道還不錯.... 可是價錢很嚇人~我們點了兩個pizza，三個人share~

一個人要13元~吃不飽....不過偶爾吃一下道地的餐廰，感覺真的很不錯！！

我跟homeba說我們去吃serious pie，又貴又吃不飽時，他開玩笑的說:that's why they call it "serious pie"!!! 哈~

 

我的臉真的好圓哦.....

 

 

星期日~跑去gong家煮green curry了~

 

因為上次gig大師教我，我一直沒機會試煮~所以，我們就殺去gong家開了一個small party~

大家各帶一點食物~吃的很簡單~但真的很美味！

 

吃完我們跑去fredral way閒走...回家的路上....gong的車子掛掉了，gong, gig, me三個人在那弄了三小時 ....我的媽呀

真的覺得gong很帶賽！！ 好在他看不懂中文~哈哈哈

這個周末過的好快哦.....

i still remember ....last time, when i withdrew from the ATM in downtown....the ATM charged 100 from my account, but it didn't give me 100.

this time, when i book the ticket from the USA webiste(the statue of liberty)..... they charged me 60...but they didn't give me the tickets....

crazy.....

originally...i didn't know they charged me $60....they only showed me the ERROR (Your payment information could not be authorized. Please review your information and try again) when i booked the ticket.....

i thought my card was locked by the bank....i went to the bank to ask the staff...... then, they told me.....my card did work...and ......they charged me $60 already!!!!

i call the service of liberty to figure out what's wrong..... they told me, they will give me money back tmr.....

is this really american style?!?!?!?!

why........ the biggest country in the world.....do everything so stupid......

i think tw is more professional than usa.......

 

by the way....today, when i shopped in safeway....a girl ask me....."why your eyes are so small.......????"

i only wanna say......I HATE U!!!! FATHER><  why i didn't inherit my mother's big eyes.....

i wanna come here for a long time!!!!

thanks cute sunny for taking me there!!!

the scenery was amazing!!!

沒想到我竟然會在西雅圖暴出這句話

才剛洗好澡，身上已經都油油的了..

好在西雅圖的空氣很乾....不然我真的又要再洗一次了

咡說最近的高溫會創西雅圖的歷史新高

誰可以幫我寄冷氣過來呀！！！

 

今天最高溫37度耶！！

明天會衝到38度...我的媽呀！！

好在西雅圖沒台灣這麼潮溼!!!!不然....真的沒地方躲啦！！

只有電扇....要對抗37度...自已都覺得好笑XD

 

 today, we go to the mountain rainier~ this is one of the american national park!!!

because it looks very similar with FUJISAN,,,,,,, many japanese call this mountain: TACOMA FUJI!!

thanks for krut and andy invite me to go there!!!!!  I want to go there for a long time!!!!

 

our teacher AMY told us that the BITE IN SEATTLE takes place only once per year!

How come we can miss this big chance!!!!

today is a small group~only Mai, me and Kathleen~*

the traffic was jammed by the baseball game!!!! crazy.....@@

i was late about 30 min.....i felt so sorry to mai and kathleen......

this was my first time to take the monorail!!!! we should go to the top of the building~3rd floor!

the ticket was so expensive.....$4!!!!! (round trip)  it only took 2~3 min. from westlake station to seattle center!

i think it is a ROBBER train......

 

 

today, we found a very cool vendor machine! u can buy the twilight book from the vendor machine!!! so cool!!!!

as i said on the last article....i went to see the latest harry potter this friday....

 

the story was so so.....but i'm shock that....the president died........OMG!!!!!

and....... i took a nap during the movie.......

the movie was so long!!!! two and half hours.......

boring+long+no subtitle =  took a nap.......

i think.........the director will understand me!!!! ha ha ha

 

today, we had a party for Brian and Lynn~

they are going to move to LA next week!!!!

I will miss u guys!!!!><

 

the new jp buffet was so good!!! tasty and cheap!!!! i think i will go there again!!!^^

(↑After i lose 10 pounds!!!!)

in order to save money~i had a hair cut by myself!!!!

after cooking , dye hair and travel DIY

American is a very good place for people to learn be independent

it's very special for me to cut the hair by mysefl~

i have so many potential!!!!

 

who wanna ask me to have a hair cut?!?!?!?

 

今天打電話回家時，老媽跟我說外公今天早上走了....

我整個嚇到了.....過年時，我們還一起去玩的.....

感覺好突然.......

記得上次打電話回家...只是說他一直不想吃東西....

真的.....好突然

外公....你要一路好走....要在天堂過的幸福！！！

這天~大好人布董跟琳小姐載我&feather & Annie去outlet血拼

 

我整個殺紅了眼!!!!

一口氣把souvenir買齊了~

還幫cathy買了個小禮物...想說她在西雅圖時拿給她....可惜~她的出差計畫有變數><

在outlet吃飯時，看到電視在播宇多田光的mv~

she is so good!!!! it's really very hard to see a asian people's mv in the usa!!!

 

血拼完後，就回家享受BBQ party~

 

 

美式的BBQ party跟亞洲的不太一樣

他們口中的烤肉，只是煮個漢堡肉而已....

正在幫我備肉的host father!  超好吃的啦！

 

my sweet homestay family

mark, sheila and Cecelia cuty~*

 

本來還邀gig來的...可是太晚跟hostmother說了....害gig 不能來....真的很不好意思...

晚上跟homesty去看firework!!!

很美！！放了有十分鐘吧~放完後，everyone claped their hands!!!!

Bravo!!!!

阿美力卡的國慶日還不錯玩~....可惜outlet的折扣不夠多呀><

時間：090703

地點：seattle downtown Pacific place!

成員：mai, Kathleen, mia, yui, yoko, karen, annie, rana, Maivs

早上坐車時才發現，今天的車是要看holiday schedule!!!

早上邊打扮時，還狂打電話聯絡大家....真的一團亂~

todai buffet還不錯，但價錢不便宜~中午價15，加上小費跟稅，一個人約要20!!!!

但重要的是，大家都吃的很開心~

 

吃完後，就去window shopping (?!)健身啦！

pink今天折扣打的太棒了！！

我敗了兩件t-shirt!!!

一件六元，一件七元~買的超開心的啦！

 

在pink敗家完後~轉戰AE

AE折扣沒pink的吸引人~但我還是敗了一件灰色的polo杉

$10(左邊那件)

 

本來還想殺去AF的~可是為了去china town買bubble tea~所以就放棄啦！

因為bubble tea只收現金，所以我想在downtown先領錢，結果!!!!atm要吐鈔時，竟然當機了！！

我的帳戶被扣錢了，結果我沒拿到錢，整個超傻眼的...也很生氣

好在kathleen幫我打電話給bank跟他們說情況，行員就把錢還我了

那個很爛的atm....手續費要$3.5耶！！！

我的媽呀.....再怎麼賽的事，都可以讓我遇到！！@@"

但我還是要好好說一聲~謝謝妳啦！！kathleen sweety!!!

 

china town的 bubble tea~味道跟台灣的很像~!!!不過價錢是4 倍...@@

 

今天花好多哦~$$67，又一次的大暴走...

回到家後，請house mate陪我去wallgreen買雞肉~結果~雞肉沒買到，倒是敗了我第一本美國雜誌!

我會好好讀的~希望可以增加閱讀能力~哈！！(←看帥哥才是真正的目的XD)
