Summer just passed, welcome Fall

Ola my friends...

It has been a while from my last blog. Last one was just right after my trip to Alaska, which was on May. Ummm... let me think what have been going on in my life...

The highlight of the summer is I did skydiving :D... I can't believe I finally did it. It was AWESOME! I jumped with an instructor from 12,500 feet and 1 minute free fall. The free fall was the best part, after the parachute was opened... I felt dizzy as we cruisin to left and right so many times for 4 minutes.

Of course, I got so scare before jumping. We took 25 minute plane ride and the view was awesome. Somewhat it calmed me. But when the plane door was opened. I got so scared... the wind blew so hard and it was very cold. I screamed "I am not ready, I am not ready", while my hands held so tight to the plane, but my instructor just grabbed me and pushed me out of the plane. I closed my eyes and I could feel my body fllipped around. Few seconds later on, we were stable and I opened my eyes. The free fall felt like flying instead falling down. I will definately do it again. And I am planning my next jump next year. This time, it will be from 18,000 feet, 1 1/2 minute free fall :D

My mom and sister visited us for one month last August. I really had a great time when they were here. We had a lot of laughes, shared a lot of gossip and wasted a lot of time for shopping :P. We did a trip to whistler... and that was ok! The first night was a horrible night. We rent a condo, which is literally 50 feet from a nightclub :(. OMG, they were so loud. I cried since I could not sleep due to noise while I was so tired. That was a nightmare! Good thing, we could find a 2 bedroom studio @ Marriott, so we moved the next day.

We got locked out of our house for the 3rd time this year! Isn't that horrible! :(. The first one, we got locked out but luckily one of the window was opened, so we can go in. The second one, we had a tenant, and she was in south center mall. We called her, and in 20 mintues she was arrived and we could go in. The third time, there were no windows opened and we had no tenant. It was 10 o'clock at night. So we called 24-hour locksmith. When sheldon called them and asked for the rate, they said the rate is $39.99 plus labor. We thought it was a good deal considering we were in "emergency" situation. When he came, he put $39.99 and the labor rate is $129.99. Geez, that was a ripped off. We were pissed off... but nothing we can do. He was able to open the door in less than 10 seconds! that's really2 sux... oh well... it's a lesson for us!
