weekend back home in the bay!!

it was so cool to be able to go home this weekend, since we had a 3 day weekend for presidents day. it felt good to be in a city again...SAN FRANCISCO. but i left on thursday at about 5 and landed in the bay at around 6:30 pm. my dad then came to pick me up at the oakland airport and drove home. my mom had a home-cooked meal ready and i was for sure ready to eat a home-cooked meal again. it was so good. =D 

then on friday, i went and had lunch with my grandparents at a dim sum place. oh did it feel good to eat good food than go to the commons. lol well, anyways, my dad then came to pick me up and we drove around so i can practice driving. and yes...i dont have my licenses, the transportation is just really easy around the city. but im planning on getting my licenses during the summer. YAY!! so after driving around for awhile, we had to go pick up my brother from his school cuz he was meeting one of his elementary/middle school friend at their old elementary/middle school. when we got there, i realized that i havent been there in a long time since my brother left. i then saw a lot of my old teachers when i was in middle school. it was nice to catch up. then we went to king pool which was in the bayview district to watch the all-city swim meet. i wanted to see how my high school swim team was doing since i was on the team for my last 2 years in high school. stayed there for awhile just watching the swim meets...oh how i miss swimming so much. then we went to meet my mom at her work (preschool) to meet up with her to have dinner. then we had to pick up my brother from a friday night club program (cameron house, a youth based organization that we've been part of for a long time). i then saw a lot of people that i havent seen in a really long time either. it was nice to be around those people again. 

i'll leave another post about my saturday...since it'll probably be a much longer post with pictures too!!! 
see ya guys later. =)
