Just Gotta Hang On A Little Longer

Day 40 

Currently not in a situation where i'm enjoying everything over here. One thing i still cannot adapt here is travelling without a car. For those who doesn't know, i can't bike so to go about Anchorage is not easy and i would go further and say it is hard. =( Unless you plan to spend big bucks on calling a taxi. I'm depressed. I miss my car badly. 

Wonder if i could still manage a second job? The current one already used up most of my time and energy! Thankfully i have supportive parents who ask me to cope whatever i'm possible with. Don't need to stress myself up. I miss having them around me. 

Sigh. Why am i in such a mood now. I'm going to sleep it off. Good night...


Xoxo.

Happy Birthday

Day 38

I was suppose to update yesterday but unfortunately i was called in to work. *think of the money think of the money* Its been a month living here and at times i miss home. Maybe still don't fancy the cold weather. Bah~ 

As our working hours and shifts are different now, we can't hang out together that much. Had a new housemate, Yx! Think i havent officially introduce her yet. Don't be mislead due to this pic. She is not shy at all. 


Took her to visit downtown a couple weeks ago and glad that she was so excited. From taking the People Mover (that's what they called the bus service here), mall, museum, parks to the weekend market... Oh, i'm loving the Funnel Cake. Extreme yummy! 







Birthday celebration last week was great. Won't announce how old am i now. Just presume i'm 22. Haha! Celebrated at home and at this place called Buffalo Wild Wings. So happened another friend of mine is also getting a year older the next day so we "party" together that night! Love Alaska's beer! So many awesome choices weihh~~ Well, thank you to all for everything. Me  you all. 












Gonna stop right here. Might be going out to see the locals catching salmon fish! 


Xoxo.

An Average Of 8 Degree Celsius

Day 22 

Finally i have internet connection! My house wifi was down for almost a week but thankfully now is serviced and have better speed to accomodate the 8 of us. Haha! I've been busy working 5 days a week trying to earn some money before spending it during my travel period. 

The weather here is seriously NOT summer. Even with few layers of clothes, we will still be freezing cold especially while we are waiting for our bus. =( I'm working now at one of the restaurant lounge at the Ted Stevens International Airport. So far so good, my co-workers are nice and thought me patiently. Just that its kinda tired when i have the job scope of To-Go cashier, bar prep & buser at the same time. Wonder can i still have the strength to work second job. Hmm~ 

I'll just post up some pictures showing the main places i went to visit before i started working. I'm still very much amazed by the beautiful sceneries and landscapes in Alaska! I don't remember the names of those places of interest, so its going to be a jumble-up of Flat-top, Alyeska, portage glacier, parks, downtown & one of the coastal trail. 

















































Praying for the weather to be warmer and the pretty flowers to bloom! =) Right now i'm just going to drink some hot green tea and wait for the sun to set after midnight. Haha!
