Greetings from Los Angeles!

Hello all! The day turned into night which turned into day again, and before I know it tomorrow is the Step 2 CS exam day. At this point I'm beyond freaking out. The heart can only take so much of anxiety a day, and if I allow myself to keep feeling that I'm gonna go nuts. So right now I'm just gonna chill, sleep early and do my best tomorrow. Wish me luck guys.

On another note, it's so good to be back in LA! LA, my second home, the place that took me in for a good four years what seemed like eons ago. There's a sense of estrangement on a familiar land, or familiarity on a foreign land. Whichever, whatevs. All I know is, it feels great to be back, and I've missed all my friends here. It's a pity I can't meet with them all, due to the short period of time that I'll be here. Perhaps another trip.

My last view of KLIA before we took off. Very hazy morning.

View from up above. Such a huge difference from the skyline in KL. 

After 8 hours of waiting time in Guangzhou airport and 14 gruesome hours of flight, California is finally in sight. I almost got DVT from all those immobility. 

First meal in LA? Of course it had to be In-N-Out! Haha. I don't care if it's gonna clot my arteries, I'm having my cheeseburger, fries and chocolate shake. :P 

Took a walk on Manhattan Beach pier, and saw someone caught a baby shark. Not that I'm a huge fan of fishes/sharks/fishing, but it's pretty cool this little guy trying its best to wriggle its way out of a human's grip. The guy wanted to keep it as a pet, but alas he couldn't find a pail and so it was released into the ocean. Bye baby shark! Swim as far off into the ocean, don't ever come near the shore!

Last but not least, this is how I feel right now. 

Yes. THIS IS IT. I will win this battle.

SPARTAAAAA!!! 

Good night world. I will write more when I'm done with exam! xoxo.
