hello! i’m now in berkeley in a little cafe called cafe malano on bancroft. before this we were at cafe durant for breakfast..EGGS (: sitting under rickety umbrellas out on a lovely 2nd floor porch overlooking the street below with a little rusty white speaker spewing spanish music and the sun streaking in all around us..

i’m so glad we postponed our berkeley trip to this weekend..it was rainy and dreary last weekend but this weekend the sun’s out! i’m going to go walk around on telegraph in a minute..jeremy has to stay here to study for a bit. he has a test on monday :(

yesterday we traipsed around on campus for a little bit, walked to jeremy’s mom’s office, and then we met up with his mom and nigel and aviva for dinner at this restaurant called fonda’s where we had yummy yummy food.. and then headed to noam’s for a little wine and cheese party (: what a sweet little house!!! i love it when you can tell the homeowner’s personality through just being in their home, all the books, the pictures on the refrigerator door, the kitchen stuff, the faded old pictures everywhere, the little knick-knacks. it felt really homely and full of character, but not stuffy and over-thought. and we got to sleep upstairs in the master bedroom! it was like a studio apartment, literally. had their own living area and kitchen area and everything. anyway, so yeah it was uh, awesome (:

today we’re going to go thrifffffting!!! and for lunch we’re meeting jeremy’s friend steve maybe at this little roadside shack we passed by yesterday that sold amazing brazilian grub! had a mango smoothie from there, and the cute little man gave us a sample of their tri-tip….really juicy! can’t wait.

LATES PEEPS!
