| Finally! Life's been crazy the past 2 months so I haven't had time to update... but here's to my trip to China:

With my mom and dad - I'm the tall mutant of the family.

Eating an emperor's meal at an old palace.

Me being pretentious and trying not to laugh...

My dad and I conquered the Great Wall! So after all that climbing, it's dum dum dum...Peking duck time!

YUMM.

Live scorpions on a skewer...

And me eating one... 

10 crazy Chinese acrobats on a bike.

Alcoholic at heart - I had to do it - my parents didn't know what to say so they just snapped the photo haha
I was cracking up the whole time posing for it because there were a
bunch of old Chinese people on the left staring at me like I was
absolutely nuts.

How cute do my mommy and daddy look in this picture?? 
I was so pampered in Beijing - massages (yea sorry there's no picture
of that), great food, and the chance to actually visit the sights I've
read about since I was a little kid (yes I'm a fob).
After that...off to HK! Many thanks to Miss Tingting for hosting and showing me a fab time Can't wait to see you again! (And you still owe me pictures)
After
my trip to Asia, I was exhausted for awhile, from the jetlag and the
traveling. But 2 weeks later, it was reunion time in
Boston! Dee, Fang, Sherry, Alex, Kaliq, Charles, and many others
all went up to Boston. Photo recap:
Friday night at Tonic:
 
Sexy ladies...
Charming
guys...
 
Not sure what was so funny...
Dee was obviously
having fun.
Saturday went to Founder's day - great weather, lovely company, and yummy lobsters. What else can a girl ask for? Night was spent at Umbria:

 
Good times.
Sunday had brunch at Charlie's Saloon on Newbury Street with Grace, Cindy, and Allison

THANKS to 55 Revere for hosting, PKT for a great Founder's Day, club Moy, and everyone that came out! | | |
| Taking the NYC subway
is often an event of its own. Besides the lovely smell that makes
me hold my breath, the stairs littered with used metrocards, and of
course, the performers.
After a nice day at the Moma and dinner, I took the 4 train from Grand
Central to Wall Street. I stepped onto the train expecting a good
relaxing 10 minutes of indulging in my food coma, so I was a bit thrown
off when a big guy jumped in front of me and DEMANDED a high
five. I thought uhh ok maybe he'll leave me alone if I just give
him five. However, when I sat down, he came over and started
blowing bubbles towards me and did this trick that looked like he
pulled a bubble out of thin air. Then he tried to make me hold
some stuff so he could do other tricks, but I didn't wan't to.
THEN I don't know if it's revenge, he started pulling at the hem of my
skirt (I was wearing a long skirt with boots) -- and stuck something
under my skirt and hit my ankle with it. I was thinking...OMG WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!!?
At that point he pulled out the thing and it was a magician's hat, and
dumped its content into my lap. Guess what it was?! A BLACK LACE THONG....
The train was pretty full and all these guys started laughing and
clapping. I brushed the thong off with a brochure and the guy
kept picking it up and throwing it back at me!! He was yelling
stuff like..."Oh you *really* want me to keep your thong??"
I was kinda grossed out by it because who knows where he got it from or
where it's been, but I must admit... it was pretty amusing
hahaha. I think I find almost everything amusing... not sure
why. It was tough trying to keep a straightface so he wouldn't
come terrorize me again.
On another note, I saw Underworld Evolution this weekend... Kate
Beckinsale's so smokin' hot. Life's unfair, but at least she kept
the movie interesting:
 
The end.

| Who knew?
Found this in an old email...always makes me laugh.
===========================================================================================
Ah! New Yorkers...
Toll Booth Accident - Both must have been typical New Yorkers, one more in a hurry than the next one..... I wonder
whose EZ-Pass paid the toll?
I wish the
accident report was included in this email! I would love to have read that
one!


Maybe this is why I'm so unproductive working from home. Too many distractions.
Time to go out. Ciao.

| It's been a
good while since I last updated xanga... but with everyone scattered
out now, it's easier to stay up to date on what people're up to - so
here we go ~
Life's been pretty different since graduating, and working in
consulting and living in New York's been quite a ride as well - meeting
lots of people and and traveling all over. BUT some things don't
change... like the annual spring time Vegas trip that's becoming a
tradition! (I hope so anyway) Thanks to our amazing photographer
Timmy, check out the pictue:
~Pix~
Favorite moments: Seeing Sang after almost 1 year; "Fun" with dee on
the Pure patio; Caviar, lobster, & champagne; Sake bomb madness;
Jessie on Jessie action; Jerry running down the hall in .... (edited just for you jerry)
Hahaha too funny. Thanks for the fabulously crazy fun times everyone
