Matos 21

Watched Rush Hour 3 with Juliana today. The theater reminded me a
little of the ArcLight - assigned seating, large plush seats, wide
aisles. But only costing $1.50. That's right, 10% of the cost!
Well, ok, so it wasn't perfect sound or picture. But at least it
wasn't pirated, incomplete or missing the bottom half of the
picture! And we got chocolate Pocky (Can't get that at a theater in
the states!) and yummy popcorn!

It was definitely fun to see pictures of home: the L.A. city skyline,
intersections in downtown, and of course, the freeway traffic! It
felt funny to get SO excited, but I'm beginning to understand what it
means to miss the familiar comforts of Los Angeles.

Jennifer went to Surabaya today. I asked her to get me a Starbucks
mug. I haven't even had Starbucks since I've been here. But I
wanted a mug to call my own. I can take it to work or bring it home,
and it's simply, my own. Plus a fun reminder of oversized, plush
chairs, great conversations, and time with dear friends.
