* Wednesday Night: Santana Row *
comments

So this past evening, Hongyun and I head out to the Cupertino Library (which rocks by the way) to drop off some stuff and pick up some more stuff. On the way home, we decide to stop off at Santana Row to pick up some mousse at Cocola at Santana Row since it's just a few blocks from home. This place has over-priced-yet-irresistable deserts. The mousse there is very good and not sugary. Think of it like a cheesecake that can float. I've definitely been on a floating things kick lately. Anyway, when we get there, we realize there are literally throngs of people at Santana Row! I mean most of the stores are closed by this time, but Straits and other restaurants are not only open, but packed to the gills. Amazing. I hope they can bottle "it" and sell it. I'd be first in line.

Anyway, the mousse was awesome as usual and the people watching was interesting (as usual as well). I don't know what it is about the fruit of the month places, but they seem to have a certain balance. Here's my run down of necessary elements:

1. Hipstas (or wannabes) -- dudes who think they know everyone and are loud, just to be loud

2. Chicks who pretend to hate them but secretly think they're hot -- The hipstas were just standing outside the Straits terrace while the chicks were looking annoyed at the table right next to them. But a couple of the girls were enthralled.

3. Rich, old couples -- just having a late dinner/snack.

4. Ugly girls who think they're hot -- they're always at the scene and they're always trying so hard.

5. Not so ugly girls who think they're hot -- they're always at the scene and they're always trying so hard.

6. Super good looking hostess -- doesn't seem to care who you are as long as you notice that she doesn't notice you.

7. Too nice waiter -- bends over backwards to get you want you want.

8. Menus with no dollar signs or decimal places -- nice whole numbers...everyone knows what they mean, right?

9. Hummers, Ferraris, and Lambos - Oh my! Always short parked, nicely stacked out front of the Valencia hotel like they're ready for a rap video shoot to fall from the sky at any moment.

10. Those who are too poor to get the Lambos (includes myself and Hongyun) -- just enjoying our mousse and taking a little time to watch 1-9.

And that's your slice of Wednesday night at Santana Row.
