Freak accident
Almost killed one of the big fishes. I was being diligent and decided to clean the big tank. I had to take out the canopy (so no light) so that I had more room for siphoning. As I was sucking the dirt out from the back of the tank, I accidentally stuck my python to one of the fishes. I tried to pry it out by hand but it's too stuck, after a min of struggling I asked my dad to turn off the water. It now has an interesting pattern on the right side of its body, many scales were torn off and a bloody mark on its anal fin. I think it's a miracle that it survived given how much suction power that python had.
London landing
After my lesson, went to see London landing with John. It's pretty small, as what I'd expect from a townhosue. I quite like their color scheme, yellowish brown wall with hardwood floor, and brown wooden color for the picture frames. In one of the bedrooms, the wall is greyish blue.
For my new room, I think I either want chocolate brown or greyish blue. Greyish blue is nice but not sure if it'd be too cold for a bedroom.
Movie
After london landing, we went back home to get the movie coupons and had some snacks before heading out to Silver City.
We saw "Inside Man". It's quite clever, but I already knew one of the interesting parts from the preview, all of them dressed the same.
Afterwards, we decided to go to Costco, only that it's closed. We passed by Riverrock casino, and went in and took a look. It's similar to vegas, only less busy and less smoky (except for the poker room). The buffet was quite expensive. For sun, it's about 22, so we decided to go grocery shopping and headed home instead.
All day walking
On Sun, after going to church, I went out by myself and did tons of window shopping.
First, I went to see display suites: Emporio, Opal, since it's kinda on the way.
Then, I went to Fujiya for my matcha, and then The Brick.
Then I walked for about 3-4 blocks, trying to find Home Delight, cuz I missed it last time when I was driving.
On the way, I went into Shermin paintshop. They have lots of color sample strips and some color combination suggestions, but none they were as convenient as the color scheme book that I bought (Yay for me!).
After 4 blocks of walking, I gave up, and decided to drive to Home Delight.
On the way, I saw JR Furniture, so went in and had a look. It's very similar to The Brick.
So, after almost 2 hours of wandering around, I finally arrived at Home Delight. It is like its name, a delight. Its furniture styles are very modern and contemporary. And, they have scaled down sofa for small condo. Also, its price is quite reasonable. There is this one particular sofa that I like. It's in grey Corduroy, and it has adjustable back, and it's an L-shape sofa. However, my sis said we better stick to leather, cuz it'd be too hot during summer. I'm also worried that Corduroy might not last very long.
After Home Delight, I went to see Mobler. And, then I decided that I'd seen enuf and went back down no.3. On the way, I passed Fullerton presentation center. Its interior design is just average, but they had free coffee, tea, and fresh baked cookies (gingerbread and white butter cookies with raspberry jam in the middle). Like all other condos, it's almost all sold out, except for one apartment unit plan, and one townhouse plan.
On my way to Superpet, I passed by an alley and noticed that they have several furniture stores there. They're all out of style and too anitque looking for my taste.
After Superpet, I went to Richmond center. It'd changed a lot. The Garage is all newly designed, probably the one that has the most interior design amongst all the stores. And, there is no more Death by Chocolate. It's now Ice Cream melt, those that were once very popular in the chinese mainstream several years ago.
I visited the Bay, Sears, Pet Habitat, Garage, and the Face Shop. Also dropped by Second cup and tried their green tea latte. It's fantastic! None of those articial flavour that Starbucks put in their green tea latte.
Lessons
The usual, fixing waltz jump, trying stand-still single axel.
Learned some more new warmup in adult class.
Alternating outside edge, lift leg.
Alternating inside edge.
New thing about them is that after the edge, I'm at 90degree from where I start.
And, still cannot do the grapevine.
One of our classmates fell and had a nosebleed.
Coach pointed out what's wrong with my dry land jumping exercise -- not jumping thru the toe. As a result, I'm stuck on the take-off axis and I'm not totally on a new axis when I try to rotate. Same thing I did on ice.
