.. and this university is not for the weak-minded.

I’m so happy to call this gorgeous campus my home (: its a pretty awesome place to live and learn.

because it’s green and the air is good.. and there is no sales tax (: Which means shopping just got a lot more fun.

I still have pictures of the mist covering my entire face. Pretty awesome place (:

West Palo Alto, very pretty, posh, scenic, and small-town comfy. East Palo Alto, not so good. But hey, there’s an Ikea (:

The grocery store’s about the most exciting happenin’ place round here ): but hey, it’s home.

Was born here and moved to the United States when I was three. I would love to go back someday & kind of find my roots, in a way.

It’s freaking gorgeous. That’s all. I can’t say much for intellect or organization or fame, but I’ve never been in a prettier beach town that hasn’t oversold its culture or undervalued its worth.

My friends live here and they love it. It’s worth the trip for me just to see them (:

Volunteered at a homeless shelter here. Can’t say much for the city, but seeing a lot of families find their way towards our kitchen was worth the trip.
