Angela brought me to this street in San Fransisco called “Hippy Street”.
Ok I made that up WTF cos she kept referring to it as the hippy street and I don’t remember her ever telling me what it’s really called. Any help?
It’s a street filled with quirky things and bursting murals on the sides of the shops.
The inside of a novelty store.
I love novelty stores! Nobody does gags and useless funny crap as good as the Americans.
I got Desmond a box of Hangover Pills (on the box: “for curing hangovers so you can keep drinking and driving” WTF). Hahaha they’re actually just candy made to look like medicine. And I got Huai Bin an air freshener which is supposed to smell like marijuana WTF.
Smiling Indian storekeeper behind. Indian can also be American ok wtf.
You know in some Chinese temples you get a tin full of sticks inside and you pray and shake it until a stick falls out and that’s your fortune?
There was one in the store! Filled with funny English fortunes of course.
Angela’s was “Your love affairs are wrong and soon will be right” which filled her with trepidation because why are they wrong in the first place wtf but I was optimistic because it says they will be RIGHT. So whatever it is it can only go up from here right?
Mine was “Take care or you will lose a close friend” WTF which is so true because I kept asking David sensitive questions about his life wtf and I also told Angela that the song “Picture” by Kid Rock & Sheryl Crow reminded me of her and her love for bad boys wtf without realizing that the song was a breakup song WTF.
We also got fortune teller fish.
You take out the fish and place it on your palm. And depending on how the fish folds or rolls, that’s supposed to describe the state of you.
I think mine was passionate or something wtf and Angela’s was I dunno broken hearted or something HAHAHAHA.
See what I said about pretty mural-ed walls?
Wah my pose damn cool lor wtf.
Angela copyyyyy
Even the signs were so colorful <3
And there was a picture of a god I dunno why.
Angela said pose like the god and she posed damn gracefully! I did it and looked like a robot doing Thai dance so it’s not gonna be up here wtf.
I just realized hahahaha the wrap (cos it’s Mexican?) says hola and the French fries say bonjour hahahaah damn cute. They should have some sushi too…and er General Tso’s chicken wtf.
I wanted to bring this sign home with me.
Another peep into kitschy shops..
This store was so cute I tried so hard to find something to buy WTF.
But it’s all mostly tshirts and while they were cute they were too expensive (about USD 30 a piece)
Then we found a stencil of Albert Einstein in Nikes WTF on a wall.
(It’s not actually called stencil there’s an actual word for a picture like this imprinted on a wall I just can’t remember what)
Since Einstein is smoking a doobie, we thought it’d be funny to imitate him. Angela did it quite realistically! (from real life experience I guess since Ben smokes)
I on the other hand look like I’m taking a dump fml.
Then.. the Golden Gate Bridge!
You can’t tell in this photo but it was freezing cold up there!
And you can’t tell also but my shirt was so thin it’s actually see through *slutty
So I was dying there but I’m just very skilled in posing for photos like nothing matters in the world (actually come to think of it so are all my other girl friends wtf)
We paid for 15 minutes worth of parking but we took so fast with the photos cos it was so cold that by the time we ran back into the car there was still 15 minutes left on the meter WTF.
So rushed so this was the only photo of Angie and me at the bridge.
And I look like I have a combover T_________T
And I forgot to draw my eyebrows that day T___________T
So I pasted on eyebrows myself and now we’re Elphaba and Glinda WTF.

That’d be Haight St in the Haight-Ashbury district. I didn’t get a chance to look there when I was in SF, only drive down the street in a tour bus 🙁
u ceat one it’s just petaling street with lotsa photoshop!
It’s called Haight Street! Great tourist spot, so many cute pictures of you! Lucky it was sunny when you came!!
It is Haight Street. The intersection of two streets, Haight and Ashbury in that neighborhood give the area its name(the “Haight-Ashbury District”), which is considered the birthplace of the hippy movement, the “Summer of Love” (1967), and all the stuff you hear about that signified the 1960s era. Wayyyyyy too far back for you two beautiful young girls to know about…I won’t tell you whether or not I remember it….heh !
Audrey, years from now you can reminisce about your day on Haight street with this old “hippy” song, which would have been heard when walking in Haight-Ashbury in 1967, the “Summer of Love”.
