This post used to contain pictures, but due to new storage limitations from WordPress, I had to fix the problem and decided to create a new blog that works as an archive for all the posts from my two years in California. This full post can be found here.

What a day! It started with waking up 5:30 am on a non-working-day. Horrible! But totally worth it. At 6:30 I was at Lovisa’s house and she drove me and Meg to Fashion Valley for some American Black Friday shopping! We were there at 7 am but I was surprised so few people were there. On a normal Saturday (at noon or in the afternoon) it’s almost impossible to find a parking spot, but today we got one in the front parking lot! I was not impressed by this so called crazy “American Holiday”. It got worse though.

At first there was no problem at all walking in the stores, we were practically alone. At the Abercrombie store I bought a pair of long flannel pajama pants matching the shirt and shorts I bought a while ago. It’s too cold for the shorts. And it was on sale.

I think we spent the most time in Victoria’s Secret where I bought stuff for $145!! I know, I’m crazy, but now I have everything I was planning on buying soon enough anyway, panties and two bras. I was planning on buying one, but then they had this sale and the other one I tried was so amazing. It felt like two fluffy kittens were holding my boobs up! I also bought my favorite seamless silky cheeky panties and three sexier panties, one of them matching one of the bras I bought. I also got a pair of panties free because VS sends coupons to me once in a while. And because I bought for more than $70 I got a Tote Bag with some perfume samples in it.

For breakfast we had Starbucks. I tried the Eggnog Latte and I didn’t like it. So I just ate my Cranberry Bliss Bar and was happy anyway.

After that we were walking around to all kinds of different stores. In Hollister I didn’t buy anything for myself, but Christmas gifts for my mom and brother (if you are reading; they have more than clothes, just so you know!). At H&M I bought a very cute long sleeved t-shirt. The sleeves where all in lace and was super pretty. The last two things I bought was the Christmas gifts for the kids. I’m not gonna write it here until they have opened them. I think they both will be very happy!

We had lunch at The Cheesecake Factory before the big rush and got our table in just 20 minutes. I had the Roasted Pear and Bleu Cheese Flatbread which is fantastic! For dessert I had the Ultimate Red Velvet Cheesecake which was describeless. I loved it! I wrote down the cheesecakes I want to try and if I’m gonna have them all before leaving I have to go there five more times in the next six weeks…

We left the mall at 2pm and now I am so exhausted. I will probably take a little nap before going to a concert with Chad down in Solana Beach.

It feels like it should be Sunday today, but it’s only Friday! A good feeling :).
