DAY 6 Well, sometimes traveling alone can be fun and free. This is because firstly you don't have to wait for your friends or give in to them. That is what I feel now, firstly I hate waiting for people, there is so much to see and if your friends and late or walk so slow, I just want to vanish and travel alone at times. Secondly, I had to give in to watch a movie I am not too fond of watching and during the tour in the park, the other people did not want to pay to enter so we end up leaving without even looking further like the Japanese Tea Garden or the Science Academy, nevertheless I will go there another day to visit all that.
Remember the people I told you I hang out with, the strangers, they are cool people. We spent New Years Eve together. Where else to have a great time but in the Castro right, WRONG. New Years Eve is overrated in the US when you are below 21. Everything requires age 21 to enter a party or buy ticket for a new years event. Castro, was a real disappointment because I had more expectations from it. Firstly I would assume it to be bigger but it is just a street. However, there is this black gay dude who kept on talking to us and he got on my nerves at times. So, we dump him and head to the Mission and people there are crazy. Hobos and Hippies everywhere. The funniest event was that my friends got molested by a hobo and he kept on coming at us. That was hilarious because the guys were safe and laughed at the girls.
Back to the topic, I was a little disappointed with them because they took some kind of drugs. It is already bad I had to pay $5 to get Rum+Coke which tasted awful but now they do drugs. Not sure what it was but it was sure legal. First they inflate a balloon, then they breathe in and out from the balloon and finally they go high. Laughing, rolling and tickling. It was a sight but that is not my cup of tea. I would want to avoid even going such thing in case if the cops came or something because security during New Years Eve is tight.
PS: I was disappointed that I did not get to see fireworks due to peer pressure. The lesson I learn from this is to be more outspoken and to go where I want to and not submit to people I think is cool but totally screwed.
