Two roads diverged in a yellow wood ♡
Yesterday was the last day of classes. Luckily, it was also a beautiful day. My sister and I decided to take advantage of the beautiful golden hour by setting out to the woods for a quick photoshoot! As if the day wasn’t already amazing, we saw 2 deers while we were there! Highlight of the day!! :)
Here are some shots from yesterday! My sister in black, me in white

Spring Break 2012 MSI
Haven’t posted in such a long time. *guilty*
School has been hectic and I just didn’t find the motivation to write anything. Since I am avoiding homework and studying right now, might as well make a quick picture post on the day at MSI.
There was an exhibit on “Animal Inside Out” that looks at the anatomy of the animals. I was so excited to take pictures of them until I...

Chinese New Year (Eve)
新年快乐！Happy Year of the Snake!
My boyfriend drove me back just to spend a Chinese New Year weekend with my family. On New Year’s Eve, we celebrated it with my mom’s friends by having them come over for dinner. My mom cooked up a storm! I haven’t had such good food in such a long time (considering that my sister and I are poor college students and can’t afford good food....

New Year 2013
Happy New Year! The sound of the numbers “2013” sound so strange and foreign, to me at least. It’s hard to speculate on just how 2012 played out for me. There’s always the good and the bad. But this year, I really need to make the best out of what I have left. :)
As you all might have realized by now, I am quite laconic when it comes to writing, as I usually leave my...

New Year's Eve 2012
This year’s end came with such alacrity, it almost makes me wonder where all the time went. What have I accomplished this year? What haven’t I achieved? What are my resolutions? With another year going by, I begin to realize that I’ve been too easy on myself lately. I need to stop letting things hamper myself and try harder to better myself.
Perhaps, my #1 New Year’s...

Merry Christmas 2012!
Another year, another Christmas. Seems like just yesterday when my siblings and I were just kids, talking about Santa and the presents he would bring us. We would stay up late and try to catch him in his act, but sleep always got the best of us. Now, we don’t even try to wait for Santa. We understand that he knows “when we are sleeping and knows when we’re awake” O_O

2012 Christmas Eve Dinner
The more, the merrier, right? :) After a very filling lunch with my friends, my family continued our tradition by celebrating Christmas Eve with a grand dinner, albeit we never conduct ourselves with proper decorum. xD
Cheers!
I’m just going to keep this post short and simple. (I’m starting to feel a food coma coming) xD
Happy Holidays, everyone!

Break Starts NOW!
My first day back home after a long semester of school seems so surreal. It was as if I never left at all. Time never stops - It keeps going. And back home, I see time progress as the house transforms every holiday. The last visit back home, it was Thanksgiving. Now, Christmas decorations are up. It was as though I time traveled and jumped through all the bad and unhappy things just to come...

Birthday is just another day.
Back then, I used to believe birthdays were magical. I used to believe that the flame of the candle, once blown out, would really guarantee me all my wishes. I used to believe in surprises. That was then.
Now? I’m 21. I don’t feel like I’ve grown. Matured mentally? Probably. Now, I feel like the magic is gone. Nothing’s a surprise anymore. I don’t believe...

But that’s only because you have achieve something that intimidates them and make them feel less than who they are in comparison to you.
So if they can’t rise up to meet you or go beyond you, they bring you down where they can look down on you on their level.
But no one has to get on that level.
No one is better than another.
You just need to open up your eyes and realize,...

Korean Beauty Supplies
Recently bought my boyfriend and me some beauty supplies shipped directly from Korea! What attracted me to them were their cute packaging! I am such a sucker for cute things. And I have a bias for Korean (and Japanese) cosmetics, so I thought I might as well give these a try.
These Tolymoly egg pore are for my boyfriend. Look at how cute they are! I just want to keep them for myself lols....

Chris's Early Birthday Dinner!
Today, we celebrated my sister’s boyfriend’s early birthday with a special dinner made by my sister! She is seriously such a good cook. *O* Her food is like 5 star quality, while mine are like the quality of ramen. LOL
She cooked a full chicken (something that I’ve never attempted), and I can’t help but laugh at how its position looks like it’s suntanning...

iPhone 4S = iPhone for STAR
HA! Cheesy title :3 (my boyfriend calls me his star) But yes! I finally upgraded my iPhone 3gs to a 4s, thanks to my super awesome boyfriend for buying it for me *u* You’re the best ♥! I know that most people are probably getting the new iPhone 5, but it was way out of our budget. Anyhow, 4s is still a very good phone. ;)
So one of the many reasons why I wanted a 4s was because of its...

Happy Birthday, Nicky!
Super late on this, because his birthday was on September 18th! School really took over my life, and I haven’t been able to touch and hold my camera for a really long time T_T I miss taking pictures :(
Anyhow, my family came down to visit us on a weekend, and we decided to celebrate my brother’s birthday then.
Here is the cake! Yes, that candle is fake. x) Our landlord told us...

Mid-Autumn Festival!
I know I am one day late on this, but Happy belated Mid-Autumn Festival! And for those of you who knows about this Chinese holiday, you know that you MUST have some mooncakes to complement your dinner to make it complete. ;)
I was so upset when I couldn’t find any mooncakes around here on campus. I was really craving some, and I was so sure that I was going to get any. BUT my friend...

Superficial
simply-beloved:
No real relationship can stand if there is no root. You can be happy when you’re together or when you have good days, but beneath it all, if there is no foundation, then how will the relationship stand during the storms if there is no root? A relationship with no foundation will be constantly beaten until it can stand no more.

Pre-Labor Day Meal!
Surprised my family by showing up on their doorsteps in the morning to stay home for the weekend. The funny thing was that my mom called me in the morning and asked if we want them to come down to our college to pick us up for the Labor’s Day weekend. Little did they know that we were already back. x)
Here is what we had during these couple of days.
SUSHI! Initially, we didn’t...

My anniversary present
I will be leaving for vacation in 2 days for about a week, so my boyfriend gave me my anniversary present early. Gotta love him for acknowledging my love for photography and polaroids. I’ve been wanting this polaroid camera for so long for its retro look and and colorful polaroids, but I’ve always been hesitant in purchasing one because of the pricey film. I’ve put away that...

Bridgeport Coffee Company
I’m not a coffee person, but personally, I really love the smell of coffee in a cafe. I recently found out about Bridgeport Coffee Company, which was ranked as the best coffee cafe in Bridgeport! I’ve never paid much attention to it, but with nothing to do at home, my mom, my sister, and I decided to go give it a try and went on spontaneous coffee date.
It’s a relatively small...
