On Sunday, August 25, we decided to conquer Hillcrest and North Park.
On the way there, I was excited to be in the passenger seat (for once) and I started to take selfies ;)
On Sunday, August 25, we decided to conquer Hillcrest and North Park.

My roommate said Hillcrest is the city capital of gay people. I was quite excited to see gay men. I only saw a few and a couple holding hands. So cute!
So, while in Hillcrest, we went to an Italian restaurant called "Arrivederci" that my roommate swore was worth the splurge. It was yummy for sure! Not to mention, the waiters were hot! :) We had our pastas covered with Parmesan!!
Afterwards, we went to a few stores, including a thrift shop, a costume store, and finally, Pinkberry! It was my first time there. They have it simple - only 4 flavors, and then a bunch of toppings. I was excited to get one :)
After Pinkberry, we went to North Park. My roommate said it was the artistic part of town. We saw some beautiful art, live art, and visited a witchcraft store (not sure if that's what it's called). I should have taken a picture of the Book of Grimoire that I saw. I was fascinated with the kind of magic it contained. I was almost tempted to buy it. Wow. That's kind of scary.
One of the places we visited was called "Home". It is a clothing store that looks a bit like a gallery. The fashion is unique, and the art is breathtaking. My roommate adores the place and ended up getting a shirt.
After everything, we decided to refuel at Tapioca Express. It's known for its boba drinks. Oh my! This place is Asian central!!! I wasn't able to get any pictures, but if you happen to be in San Diego, definitely visit this place. It's like a club inside minus the dancing and alcoholic drinks.
Finally, here's a 42-second video with us being silly :)
