Spring Break...Sort Of
I'm enjoying the big load of work lifted off my shouder during spring break. Instead of the jump-right-out-of-bed posting, I compose the entry so much later in the morning than I normally do. In fact I think I skip a day too. Anyway, it's quite uneventual and relaxing. I'm still debating if I should head down to Disneyland with my friends and indulge in the Happiest Place of Earth's celebration of its 50th birthday (think Greg just went there and he said two rides were broken 30 minutes after he and his boyfriend went inside!) My other LA ritual is the Getty Museum, which presents the Getty's collection of Western art from the Middle Ages to the present against a backdrop of dramatic architecture, tranquil gardens, and breathtaking views. The admission is free and it does not require reservation. Last spring my friends Weizhu and Patty went around the central garden and the promontory striking pose and taking pictures.
Meanwhile I'm being a pouch potato at home catching up with Six Feet Under from the first season and leafing through the big stack of books acquired from the lure of Borders Reward Program. I'm currently re-reading To Kill A Mockingbird and laying my fingers on Captain Alatriste and the Thursday Next's series. The most anticipated Sandy Lam in Concert 2005 | 林憶蓮夜色無邊演唱會 DVD just arrived at my house and I cannot wait to karaoke along! Even if I decide not to to see Mickey and Minnie, I've got Sandy to keep my company!

Oooh, vacation. Lucky you! When a friend lived in SanDiego I visited and yes, we went to Disneyland (and it is quite happy there!), and also to LA for a day. We spent it at the Getty--and I *love, love, love* it there! It is one of the coolest, most breathtaking places! It was nice just sitting out by those reflecting pools. At the time there was a wonderful photography exhibit. Eventually I will get back there!
And are you enjoying Captain Alatriste? I am.
I'm jealous - I want spring break too! :) I love the Getty museum how lucky you are to be so close. Enjoy the rest of your spring break.
