they had crab, sushi, and basically rows and rows of FOOD!
some egg soup
greedy Anthony who loves ice cream. heh

we had pizza one day, after watching The Simpsons in the nearby theatre

So after trying to keep to my diet during the East Coast trip I basically binged when I reached North Carolina. My Aunt brought me to so many restaurants, all of which are buffet style. So sinful! My week at my Aunt's place was packed with activities. I watched The Simpsons, went to Malls, went swimming, went for morning jog/walks, did laundery (handwashing is hard work man!), cooked meals, went to restaurants, went for mass, watched DVD at my cousin's neighbour (James') place with homemade popcorn (typical American!), went on many walks and tours/trips around the neighbourhood, taking their public transport (which is free of course), visited my Aunt and Uncle at their shops, helped my Aunt at her shop, went grocery shopping at Target, Walmart, Asian Market, Harris Teeter and many more, took lots of free sample food (typical Singaporean again) and lots of other stuff which my memory fails me. I really enjoyed the week getting to know North Carolina Chapel Hill better because it helped me a great deal when I started school at UNC. I also learnt alot during this time about American culture and got to know my cousins much better. :)
