I<br \/>\ngot email from Fang Shi Ming who is well known as Fang Zou Zi<br \/>\n(ark), he said he was in Beijing and would be back to San Diego<br \/>\non June 20. I replied to him, and told him I am going to San<br \/>\nDiego to meet him.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">                I went to HCHB at 8:30 but the<br \/>\nguard refused me go through the entrance at Constitution and<br \/>\n15th street. I had to walked walk<br \/>\nto 14th street, took elevator to 3rd floor and back to 1st floor,<br \/>\nthen can reach Ann&#8217;s office (room 1223).<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">                I had a real good chatting with Ann. She said she will select<br \/>\nme as the EBDU (E-Business Develop Unit) EAP Leader and want<br \/>\nto me to do as the trainer of the region. She also mentioned<br \/>\nthat about sending me to Vietnam get a training. <\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">                I had lunch with Blair together, at the food bar under the<br \/>\nRonald Reagan building. I got Sushi Deluxe since there was<br \/>\none Ikura (salmon roe), which is my favorite,<br \/>\nincluded. <\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">                After lunch, I said goodbye to<br \/>\nBlair. He was going to Vladivostok tomorrow, to do the work I<br \/>\nshould do. I went hotel directly by metro. I reached my room<br \/>\nat 1:00 pm, there was a envelop on the ground, International<br \/>\nAutomobile Association mailed International Driver&#8217;s License<br \/>\nto me. It made me so happy. But eventually I found they printed<br \/>\nwrong information on my card, it wasn&#8217;t my name and address.<br \/>\nI had to contact with IAA again and asked them to print a new<br \/>\none<br \/>\nto<br \/>\nmail<br \/>\nto me.<br \/>\nThe<br \/>\nbad<br \/>\nIAA<br \/>\nlet me pay the express mail fee, which is $14, kind of robbing<br \/>\nme.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">                I decided finish my MBA thesis paper that afternoon. I owed<br \/>\nmy professor Dr. McMillan for a long time, the due date was<br \/>\nMay 1st. I spent the whole afternoon<br \/>\nand eventually I finished the document.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">                I went out around 8:00, it was going to rain. I walked to the<br \/>\nfamous George Town, and walked into an art shop. I bought<br \/>\nsome color sticks and another bead chain<br \/>\ntoy for Lara.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">                It was start raining when I was looking for mussel as supper.<br \/>\nI can&#8217;t find<br \/>\nit but I found Barnes &amp; Nobel, which is a bookstore I bought some books 3<br \/>\nyears before. This time I bought a recipe book called Better Homes and Gardens<br \/>\nNew Cook Book, the cover said it is the America&#8217;s number one cookbook since<br \/>\n1930. Also, I bought a Kama Sutra for Sam.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">                It was already 10:00 pm when I walked out of the book store,<br \/>\nthe CVS was closed. I had to walk back to 22nd street and<br \/>\nwent to Meiwah again. This time, I ordered<br \/>\nPan-Fried Noodles with Seafood and Vegetables. The assistant saw me always<br \/>\ntake away instead of eat in the restaurant; I guess she was<br \/>\nthinking that I will share<br \/>\nwith some person. She gave me two pairs of chopsticks. <\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/my_travels\/usa\/washington_dc\/supper_06112003.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"444\"><br \/>\nPan-fried noodle, $11.95 from Meiwah Restaurant, 1200 New hamshire<br \/>\nAve NW.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>June 11, 2003 in Washington D.C.
