Some updates in US.
Hi Guys!!! It had been a week since i left Singapore. Well, so far life in US is good. Though it cost me a bit to get my self settle. I don't have internet at the moment. I'm hijacking my bandwidth. Actually i wanted till i got my internet then i start updating my blog. But i decided to share some pics which i had so much. Will try to travel around when i manage to get a car here. I will be going some trouble getting 1 here. Well less words more pics. :)
San Franco Airport
After almost 20 hrs.... We arrive in San Franco Airport. We are actually waiting for a domestic flight to fly to John Wayne Airport. Lets see how is my peer. HEHE.
Law N Just 
Both of them looking fine just that they look rather tired.
Lawrence
Lawrence is my housemate. Both of us living in the same apartment. However, ours is a 1 room apartment. He is fine to live in the living room so as to cut down on our rental. Well feeling quite bad about this, i decided to pay more on the rental to compensate back. Well he know how to cook. Kinda to lucky to have someone who know how to cook :)

Well as for Justin, he is like my buddy since we got to this programme. This is because i saw him from the start once i got the offer in F9E from EDB. Both of us think quite similarly. He is quite a hardcore gamer. Just like someone i knew in 3d Sense. Bought all the game console and original games and etc. Good to have him around. Just that he is the only 1 that is on a 12 mths attachement. Thats why he opt to stay on his own as he don't want to trouble us. Cool Guys isn't it?? :)

We took around 1.5hrs till we reach John Wayne Airport. From there, Char from F9E came to pick us up and send us to our Hotel which is call the Extended Stay. Despite, the jet lag and never slept well the day before the flight, we still wanato go out. The people here are really friendly. 1 lady offer us a ride to a place call District. Bascially you can shop, watch movie and etc.

Well the lady that drove us here saying that it will be crowded over the weekend. We arrived on the thu so no much people. I think we reached there rather late and most of the shop had already close. So bascially i just walk around taking pictures to this foreign place.
Some Wine bar that we walked passed.
I found this place very similar to a place in Singapore. Well you guys can guess as well.
Found this antic car in the district
Well to get back to our hotel from here, a typical singaporean will look for a taxi stand or go to the main road to flag a cab. However, you can never do it here. Basically, you have to call the taxi center then they will send a cabby to our location to pick us up. The worst thing we don't have a cell phone on our first day of arrival.... We kinda in a bad situation. Luckily we manage to get a public phone and manage to call for a cab. But we waited almost an hour and making several call to check where is the cab and etc. And another thing, Cab here is not cheap!!! Every time it jump 60 to 70 cent..... Compare to SG cab that jump 10 cent every time.

Car rented for the day
We rented this car on our second day and we gona run errands for the whole day. So a car is needed. I'm the driver and luckily i had Justin as the VC(Vehicle Commander) to read the map. Well i made some turning mistake. And the signal light is on the left as well... The right lever was the wiper. Been hitting that when i first drove lol. Kinda thrilling haha.Turning onto oncoming lane. Luckily the traffic was good not much cars. We went to confirm our new home, which we gona stay here for 16mths which called THE CAPE.
The Cape
This will be our new home for my rest of my stay in california. The admin staff Name Kim was kind enough to try to get all the paper work done in 1 day so we can move in the following day. Currently at the moment it was already a Friday. And we gona start work on Monday so it very crucial that we can move in Sat. Beside moving in Sat there is more to come on Day 3.
Day 3
Our P block Apartment 112 every apartment have 1 carpark lot
We got a confirm from Kim saying that we can move in on Sat. So we started moving all our luggages. And since we got is a unfurnished unit we gona grab our furniture on the same day as well else we gona sleep on the carpet. By then, we had already returned our car. So we took a long walk to Ikea. Which took us almost 30 mins to walk there. From there every mins count as we need to buy our furniture before 1.30pm else the delivery service can't deliver our furniture on the very same day. We made it in time and they deliver our furniture to our apartment. Then we have to do the installing. By the time we done with the installing, it is almost evening. It was a long and tiring day.
