Bicycle Trip

Well the other day I went on a bike ride. I didn't know it but it ended up taking longer than I thought. The time it took was about 4 hours. I didn't know what I was getting myself into. The people that I went to go riding with is kind of like a club, and they go every week to a different spot. The week I went was when they happened to go to the top of a mountain. I went with this group before to another mountain, but it wasn't nearly as hard. Anyways, I had a great time going with this group , and I didn't bring my camera but I have some pictures from their blog.

My Bicycle

Hello,

Well I got a new bicycle. It is my birthday gift which is cool. This bike is good because now I can ride on the roads a lot faster. My other bike if you guys remember is smaller and it folds up and can fit in your trunk. My other bicycle is good for just going around school or a short distance. Anyways, I am glad I have this new bike now because I plan on riding it a lot to go explore around and stuff.

This bike in the US is really expensive, and it is over here too but not nearly as much as back home. I will say that I have never ridden one of these kinds before, so I have to get use to it. It kind of feels like I am going to fall off of it, and it is a little different to turn. Also I change gears with my break handles. On the picture it is the silver things on the handles. What I do is I move it to the left to change and there is another button to change it again. Anyways, I hope everything is going good. Talk to you guys later.

Flea Market

Sorry I don't have any pictures for you guys, but today I went to a flea market here. I never went to one before over here, so I didn't know what to expect. What I found out was that it is pretty similar to the ones back home. A lot of people there selling stuff. I didn't find anything I wanted, but I saw some interesting things there. If I go back there again I will bring my camera to take pictures for you guys. The flea market was an indoor and outdoor place. Some of the things that was being sold were tools, clothing, bicycle accessories, and lots of nick-knacks. My dad and I were the only foreigners there, so I thought that was cool. I like going to those types of places that don't have many foreigners.

Now a new topic...There use to be a clothing store here that sold clothing that I liked. Well, they sold t-shirts that I liked. I liked them because they were super cheap ($2.00 or something like that) and because they were comfortable. I guess I am kind of picky about my t-shirts. I just want ones that are really soft and comfortable. Anyways, that store is closed and a Burger King is there now. I can't believe it. Now I am looking for a new store that sold the same thing. I guess another reason why I liked that store so much is because of the types of t-shirts they sold. They sold ones that didn't make any sense. The t-shirts will just have a random picture on it with some English words on it. I think they were funny.

Ok thats it for now. Talk to you guys later.

Update

Hello,

I just wanted to give you guys an update about what is going on here. I am still not doing too much here. I don't have a job yet, but I am thinking I should soon. I am trying to look for a full-time one. Something else I was thinking about was taking a Chinese class. I will see I guess. If not, I still like going to classes with my dad and helping out with that and stuff.

Other than that not much else going on. I will talk to you guys later.
