Day 35 -- 17/7/2011 Sunday

Today was a series of unfortunate event, however, I was not really involve in it.

First of all, I was surfing the usual websites and I saw that the FIFA women's world cup final match between Japan and USA was ongoing. I quickly turned on the television. Personally, I prefer Japan, like everything about it. All this was enough for me to root for them but I supported USA instead. I kind of like how the powerhouse played. For two times USA went in front but somehow Japan manage to fight back, guess this was the saying of "spirit of a samurai". They played through extra time and into penalty kick. Japan won in the end. It had this bitter-sweet feeling because I like Japan but I wanted USA to win. So this was considered a unfortunate event.

Secondly, Jia Bao and I wanted to go to a comics store at Washington Boulevard. We scouted the route with Google map. I rode a bicycle and Jia Bao skate on his skateboard. When we go down a declined slope, JB's skateboard went out of control and flew down to the Abyss. His skateboard went missing, couldn't find it and suspected that someone had taken it. That's another unfortunate event.

Next, we went there by bus. When we reached there, the shop just closed, for the day. We still went on in to see if they are still available. Luckily, the shop keeper allowed us to do a few purchase. So this was considered a unfortunate event in a way. We also dropped by a cupcake shop, just two shops away, recommended by Steven and his wife. Bought quite a handful of them and went home.

As for dinner, all of us had Gilbert's Mexican Food. A nice food place recommended by the landlord.
