Shady and baby

San Diego
We celebrated Chinese New Year in our hotel because Ruth is half chinese. I'm eating Thai food in this picture, though, but we decided that if we at least have Asian food, it could count. Ruth thought it was really funny that I was eating Pad Thai while lying down, so she took this picture. It is a perfect representation of why I love taking road trips with only girls-- I can look butt ugly and do really gross stuff and still not care what they think.

This is Jasmine and I at the beach when we went at night. This was shortly before Ruth's cell phone was eaten by a wave. Renae, Ruth and I also got hit by a huge wave that night, so we were fully clothed and soaking. It felt so nice to get back to the hotel after that.

The San Diego Zoo was the bomb. It was raining the entire time, hence the ponchos, but that just meant that it was much less crowded. In this picture I'm standing in front of some monkeys that were really cute.

In this picture Ruth was making fun of Renae for climbing the rocks and being such a little indian girl. I thought it was a cute picture, though.

This trip was also the first time I had been to a beach in a few years, so I thoroughly enjoyed it. Ruth and I were even crazy enough to go swimming. And if anyone has ever been to the Pacific in February, it's not exactly warm. I could barely feel my butt when I got out of the water.

I thought this picture was cute, too. I took this as Jasmine, me, and Renae went for a walk on the beach. We also saw a transvestite who was having fun walking on the beach. I think this picture was taken before we saw him, though, because we wouldn't have looked so cheerful and innocent if it had been taken afterwards.

It was really nice to get out of Provo and have an entire weekend to spend with girls, especially ones who are my age. There are certain things that you just can't do around either guys or older people, which include listening to the Lizzie McGuire soundtrack, playing Truth or Dare, and talking about High School. I can't wait for the next trip. Still, I was excited to get back mainly for one reason...
