that means happy new year in chinese. on sat night i went to chinese new year dinner with my friends the joes, it was great fun. It was new years eve! a bunch of us went to dinner in monterey park where most of the chinese folk live here in LA and had a great dinner.

before that my boyfriend and I went to the wine, cheese and chocolate event sponsored by learn about wine. It was really fun! the chocolates were amazing, i sat down and immeidately started eating them, before the event actually started. what? i was hungry!

sunday morning we got up early and went on a bike ride with a group of my friends for 20 miles in the valley! it was amazing, they all had super fancy rode bikes and I was riding a hybrid, so it was heavier and not as fast, so they all ditched me pretty quick but by the end, when they were all tired, my advantage of being in great shape took over and smoked a few of them. Finally, all my hard work paying off. The one thing I didn't l ike was riding on the main road, las virgines, too many cars so i felt very scared, but the rest was beautiful. it was sunny and 75 degrees and a crisp clear day!

yesterday I hit up pasadena with my cousins, shopped around and had lunch. They're christian fundamentalists and so sometimes i'm very awkward when they say stuff like " you know on the news it said global warming was fake..." i'm thinking first of all who calls it global warming anymore, it's called CLIMATE CHANGE, and it's real. just go to australia. second i'm so tempted to engage them in Pro-life discussion becuase while they're against abortion and say "i'm 100% pro-life," they should end that sentence with... "unless that baby turns gay or is black or is an immigrant, then i'm not pro-life, i want to deny them rights." If you're pro-life you have to be PRO-life, all life, not just a baby in utero.

that's my political rant for the day.

i also went to yoga yesterday and then i have no idea what i did the rest of day... how does that happen?
