the Park Bench...

The Central Park in New York is full of park benches that not only serve as a place to rest and escape the city life...







But it also tells the city's best stories.







Go ahead, have a seat...

"You were given life; it is your duty (and also your entitlement as a human being) to find something beautiful within life, no matter how slight." - Liz Gilbert


Just a healthy reminder of a time when I was honestly and genuinely happy...



Everyone deserves this! Everyone deserves to be happy...

San Francisco blur 090809

A collection of my photos of San Francisco with the words of
Chris Isaak's San Francisco Days

I still love you, I still want you.
I still need you, don't hang up and say goodbye



Walking on the beach last night, hoping things would be all right,
my baby lying on her bed, it's you I saw instead.
Thinking of the one I love, your the one I'm thinking of.
San Francisco days, San Francisco nights



I meet a girl in Mexico I should of told her then I know,
that I still think of you, we never will be through.
San Francisco days, San Francisco nights.
San Francisco days, San Francisco nights.
I still love you, I still want you.
I still need you, don't hang up and say goodbye





Walking down to market street feeling my heart skip a beat,
to see someone who looks like you, I guess that I'm not through.
Dreaming of the one I love, you know what I'm dreaming of.
San Francisco days, San Francisco nights



I'm heading for that golden gate hoping I won't be to late,
to find the one that I still love







It's you I'm dreaming of, San Francisco nights



San Francisco days, San Francisco nights





San Francisco..........

The flight to San Francisco was quick.

Why? two words - VALIUM and WINE! hahaha...

It was such a beautiful sight when we landed, the sky was clear and the sun was still up, I love summers in the west coast...

I just have a day to spend here and will head off to NYC for the American Idol concert, can't wait to hear Kris Allen live...

So for now, it's just a lazy day to waste in the Bay Area with my dad (who is asleep from jetlag)...

Here are a few shots from the flight, I normally don't like airplane food but when you fly Business class, one can't complain - thanks Dad, you're the best!

Here are my first glipmse of the Bay City, shot it in the plane when we were about to land...

a beautiful view of the US west coast

San Francisco skyline and the Golden Gate bridge

Alcatraz island

me love!
