Live loose, don't lose!

Today is the shopping day which I've been looking forward to for so long.

Actually most things here are almost the same price as in Taiwan, not as cheap as I expected.

However, they have some kind of shopping place called "outlet" here, where things are just cheap!

In Taiwan, there are also outlete.

But things are simply only a little cheap and are lack of varieties.

Here in United States, however, their outlet is almost of department store-American size!!

Stores here are even bigger than a headstore of the brand in Taiwan, which means there are so many goods, despite they are those called as "out of fashion."

However, I'm a man of simple taste.

I don't know much about the fashion or trend things.

So I just buy things which I think they are ok.

Due to the fact that most outlets are really far away from cities, I asked someone I knew from the Internet to give me a ride.

Irene's absolutely kind and beautiful.

I really like her. She's so nice!

And actually she's from Taiwan, not far from where I lived.

If she went back to Taiwan someday, maybe I can give her a ride back!!

The ride was kind of boring so all the other three Taiwanese students coming with me fell asleep.

So I was the one to keep Irene from falling asleep XD

And I was jealous at the superbikes on the highway.



It's the way superbikes should be......I want to ride one here next time!!

And we shared the oil price and treated Irene lunch to thank her for the precious ride.

And I like the food today in lunch.



And she sent us back to Stanford after this shopping day.

But I didn't have the chance to thank her since she left befoe I finish preparation-I thought she would stay longer but ended up finding that she already left when I was ready.

After returning to my room, it's simply surprising to find out that credit car and the cabin of the car are just devil's assistants pushing people to buy more and more. XD

I ended up buying quite a lot of things and spent some much money.



But for the fact that stores closed at six, I think I would have bought more!!!

But, it's actually my first time to do shopping with unlimited money(credit card) and no one else would guide

me like what to buy what not to buy. So I also bought some souvenirs which turned out to be quite good!

If I bought them in Taiwan, then it must be at least two times or more the price!!

I love outlets in America!!!

Then at night it's group meeting, which we talked about our feelings toward this program.

I think everyone had got a lot from this program, just like me.

and we went out together in the campus to watch the meteor shower.

the sky here is so clear and without light bothering.

And I did watched two shooting star.

And one of them is so shinning that at the instant it divided the sky into two parts, and the middle line is its trail. It's the best shooting star I had ever seen!

Despite some other groupmates in our family watched more than five shooting stars, I was quite satisfied since that I spend a good time with my family here, not to mentioned that I spotted the greatest shooting star I've ever seen.
