Arrived to my destination after a long 15 hour journey. Completely tired. Saw a lot of things on the way. While driving to San Jose, we had pit stop at a place called Casa de Fruta. Nice place for pit stop - a little fruity, but still good. Once we got to San Jose Int'l Airport, we flew to Las Vegas where I chilled in the terminal watching my dad hit the in-terminal slot machines for about 5 min. He lost a dollar on the machines. The flight to Philly was mad boring; they had a movie on, but you had to purchase headphones ($5) to listen, so I pretty much just watched the screen. Then to try to kill time, I started making oragami with the napkin they gave me; it killed an hour. I made an airplane, a fortune teller, and some odd sword looking thing. By the way, one of the flight attendants had a hair cut that made her look like Leonidas; twas crazy. Anyways, I then got to Philly, met with some relatives, and drove to New Jersey where they lived. I then proceeded to meet more long lost relatives and crashed. Tomorrow is my first interview, and I can't sleep because it's only 9:40 in California - not good.
I'll try to keep the updates coming daily, but I may not be able to if I'm traveling and don't have internet.
Cheers!

Was this your first plane flight? I'm glad you stopped at Casa de Fruita. It is a tourist trap place but it is very nice, has cool things to buy, and helps to break up the trip. I can't believe you weren't thrown off the plane for making a sword (ha, ha)! Kirpan by any chance?? BTW, did I ever tell you my sister and her husband are Sikh, that I know more than you think about your culture/religion?? Even though I'm a Christian, I find it all so very interesting and have been thankful to my sister and her Sikh community for teaching me all that I know!
