Sejuk di Niagara Falls but we make it :)

Carmates after Zul ditched us to join Bart's car, haha.

lovely us :)

gambar terakhir road trip:thank you Penn Staters esp carmates for the wonderful 4 days together :)

actually, there is so much to talk about at every places and I do wish to write (ok type) them down not only for the sake of sharing them with others but also as something to read back on later and be able to smile remembering all the things I've did and done, all the people i've meet along the way, like u know, reminiscence people say..tapi sedikit malas la kan. I should stop procrastinating updating my blog, really.

Thanksgiving Break (part 3) : Boston

Monday, Nov 22
off to Boston!
I didn't really know what the plan was since i was the follower this time. Luckily, I was in the same car with the planners, Syahir and Zul! Zul tried to keep the plan a secret, but you know, I took a peek at the map quest, heee.
so the road trip was to Yale University-Brown University-Boston-Syracuse-Rit-Buffalo-Niagara Falls-SC.
but we didn't made it to Brown and Syracuse yet it was still fun!

carmates: Egy, Apai, Syahir aka Ca'ei and Zul. Amazingly, we didn't gossip one bit, nothing really, we just sang all along and yeah laughing at the guys jokes, it's impressive how they can turn ANYTHING and EVERYTHING into something to laugh about kan?

carmates

first stop was Yale! yeay! That was the only university that I really care going at first but by the end of the trip i was thankful that i got a chance to vist Harvard and MIT too and see how different they are from us Penn State. I mean there are smart, very smart people there. sape yg pegi MIT should surely contact Hassan..tour guide yg berjaya!

downtown New Haven, Connecticut

then straight away to Boston, check in our hotel..dinner BK and off to the town. Sejuk ok, x tipu mase trun kreta but for the sake of the picture yg indah with Bart's camera, bare with it je la kan. but it was worth it. :)

1st: Everyone, 2nd: Juniors and Daju ( do click click click on the pictures for better viewing and wow-ness ;))

Tuesday, Nov 23
It was raining, so firstly make a stop at the Red Sox ballpark (Fenway Park), then went to MIT, Harvard University and Hassan then took us to Anthony's Pier 4 for Lobster! a litttle bit expensive, i think we paid more for the atmosphere of the restaurant than the food thenselves, yet bila lagi nk mkn kt Pier something2 ngn kawan2 kan!lol

at Fenway Park, my bad for not remembering the player's name of the statue

Anthony's Pier 4

to Hassan yg baik hati, if you are reading this (which I doubt he does): thank you very much for your time and hospitality k, it was really nice knowing you :)

Wednesday, Nov 24
went to Quincy Market, paid $23 for an hour parking, mahal x teragak okayyy and then headed to RIT! I was expeceting to meet Pao and Ecah la kan tapi mereka di NYC pula! but still meet some ATU 12 there and Abg Hafiz also, it was nice catching up a bit with everyone :)

at Quincy Market with Egy

with RIT-ians :)

Thanksgiving Break (part 2) : PSU vs MSU


Saturday, Nov 23 2008

AWESOMEEEE GAME!!
wlaupun kesejukan it was worth it, really worth it.
Nittany Lions were at their best, scoring and making a huge gap between us and MSU that we get the chance to see the second team and third team play! comel ok mereka. Joe Pa is a great coach not caring much about the scores yet giving other teams besides the first team play.
and the company I had with me were fun too, I had my babe there, Egy and Ada was lovely too taking pictures of us and we were shivering together, lepaking in the toilet for warmth, haha..Far was not really with us, ngn B name sbnr kot, heee..the guys were sweet too, trying to keep us all warm. yeah that was memorable too.

but singing 'we are the champion' song together at the end of the game after winning the Big Ten Champion Title was an irreplaceable moment, who know when will i be there again in Beaver Stadium to do that. kan?

greattttt experience! Good Luck to the Nittany Lions in the Rose Bowl!

on the way to the game, yes it snowed the day before!

kesejukan di stadium

the winning moment!2008 will be on the wall soooon~

Penn Staters are the best: Sim-Ada-Bina-Fifi-Egy-Ajmal-Apai

to the one who gave me the ticket: thank you, very much.
:)
owh we won: 49-18

So answering Taufiq's question at the shoutbox..Ya Taufiq, I played volley!
:)
hebat or not? Come to Penn State again and we play bersama k, pastilah tak tapi *grin*
but I was still proud with my team, team 6! our team was the only team that won against the tournament's winner, Group 10 but we didn't make it to the semi due to some scoring stuff which I dont bother to know, lagipun I do personally feel Group 10 and Group 8 were more qualified to enter the semi's.
but all that matter was I had fun with my team!
they were very supportive. i heart them. it was a great idea to do a sport tournament and mix us with the junior, congratz to Sim, the organizer!
and the most fun part of course kalahkan group 10 which is Apai's team..haha..I mean finally he lost to me in sport! SPORT! something he is very good in but still afterwards I supported his team till final.
:)

I wish I had my team's pic, Mao if you are reading this, nk gmbr group nnt k!
Sim, nnt nk futsal tournament plak please!



















and owh before we headed to Rec Hall for the tournament, we went to Panera Bread, one of Daju's to do list before she grad
:)
