Here I am San Fran! After a long ride, I arrived San Francisco this morning. I mate a Chinese lady when I transfer the bus in Sacramental, she was very kind, but just way too over–she said she can guide me to my hostel, but we got lost in Chinatown, then I kinda realized that she only know how to get around the city from Chinatown…WTF.
Anyways, I finally got to the hostel, yeah, the one with funny elevator. I went to my first appointment at AAU in the afternoon, the school is fabulous! Especially the computer lab! It is whole floor! Crazy, isn’t it? I think I am falling for it.
The weather chill down a little bit in San Fran, after the school tour, I went to buy a blanket on my way back to the hostel, it is not fun to get a cold during the trip!

It is my lunch, since it is so famous, I most try it out.
I went to visit CCA this morning, it was a pleasant walk, although I realized it isn’t a good area in the south part of the city later. People on the street are way TOO friendly! They tried to talk to me, look at me, even propose(!?) to me…
Let’s get back to school, CCA is more focus on craft, if I am going to continue my clay doll stuff, it would be an ideal. The school campus is cool, just like a big factory, huge open space using pieces of boards to divide out some studio like unit, very unique.
I went back to AAU to do two more tours, I have a strong feeling that I am coming to study here for sure.
