Train Ride Home


Taking the train sounds glamorous but in reality - it is not. Getting to the train station is fun, there is a lot of hustle and bustle, the unique noises to a train station, the conductors. And then the ride begins. It starts of with excitement, looking at the scenery passing by, seeing sights hidden from a normal car ride, and not having to drive yourself. 

But then, it gets dark, and you can't see out your window anymore. And the train will stop at random times to let others pass. Then you look at your watch and realize you have two hours to go but if you would have driven by car, you could have been home 20 minutes ago. And then you're tired of sitting down and really want to get out of this moving box but home is just so far away. 

Point: don't take the train for somewhere more than an hour away.

To Ireland? Or not to Ireland?


I wish I was here - I know its not Ireland but even more special.
Although Ireland would be nice - as long as it includes a pub. It seems like the Irish thing to do.

That's as festive as I get for St. Patrick's Day.

Pan Dulce


Pan Dulce: Mexican Sweet Bread.
Seriously Fresno has the best food ever. Also this is like 60 cents a pastry so how could you not love it?

What the Pho


I visited Fresno this weekend to get some guidance on what to do with the next year after I graduate from Cal Poly. I got to revisit the city and talk to people that I know who live in Fresno. While we were there we had Pho (pronounced fuh) for dinner.

Pho is an amazing Vietnamese soup that if you've never had you should eat right now. My favorite restaurant is Pho 75 # 2 but today we ate at Pho 99.

Thai Tea - also amazing.

Remembering Hawaiin Rain


It has been raining constantly. So I remembered taking this photo during one of the light storms in Hawaii. I wish we had a light storm.
