Long, long MDW weekend recap

Image
I'm still having withdrawals from a jam-packed half week with my love(s) in Norcal Sat I spy a unicorn! Drove to Norcal then almost immediately the bros took me to Sac Valley shooting range (but not before we grabbed a few tacos from the taco truck :D). I got to shoot with the AK-47 and AR-15. my goodness... I can't believe my manfriend and friend has those guns #murica. It was quite fun to be at the shooting range. Although, I have no idea if I even hit the target with the heavy-duty guns. I think we were just shooting with the guns mainly for the thrill, ha. On the otherhand, I am a good shot (pun hehe) with the handgun. first bullet to the head, second bullet to the chest. pew pew. When we finally left the shooting range, we came upon a saloon in our path. We're in gun country now boys . I think we got 4 amber ales for $10, holy so cheap. And of course country songs were being played, with people shooting pool in the background. The coolest part of the saloo...

1/12 til Hawaii - the weekend

Image
Ok, so I will try not to indulge so much in the next 11 weeks. But this weekend I saw my friends and also my manfriend came to visit me. So here's my last "hurrah" to eating and drinking beers leisurely! Met up with Bellies and had Umenoya ramen, in Torrance. haha their spice is pretty killer, and I only got level 1 T_T. Definitely felt it later.. Then we headed towards  Newport beach and rushed to go watch Furious 7 in Imax! Such a bittersweet movie :(. So many feeeeels~ and I love how the franchise is tying in everything to past movies (namely Toyko Drift ), and also how they alluded to Paul Walker's death and good bye in the movie without killing off his character. continuing on - Right afterwards, we kind of rushed to the Newport beach beer festival . I found the Groupon VIP deal but unfortunately we weren't able to take advantage of the extra hour of beer tasting, and also it was dark by the time we arrived. It would've been wonderful sitting on th...

1/12 til Hawaii - Friday

Image
Week 1 Friday BRB, Nikki Blackketter is my fitspiration. haha and yes I watch her workout movies to motivate me and also to make me get pumped up for my own workout. Drank black coffee out of a hello kitty cup (like a boss) and went to the gym to do a fasted Back workout: wide arm lat pulldowns close grip pulldowns cable rows, rope face pulls bar pushdowns/triceps single lat pulldowns unilateral rows 5 mins of cycling However, afterwards I met with my friend and had a huge cup of taro slushy + egg pudding + boba. I'm fat .. I figured.... I can still treat myself to my cravings for a little bit, but I really need to hone it down furreal for the next 11 weeks HEH. I promise after this weekend? o:) why after this weekend? Because my manfriend is visiting mee <3

Norcal visit & adventures

Image
A couple weeks ago I was able to take a break from work and spend a whole week in Norcal with my manfriend and see all my friends as well! He had work throughout the week but we were able to do normal couple things afterwards like binge-watch tv ( Better Call Saul!) and movies and pig out together. Manfriend always wants to watch scary movies with me, but I absolutely hate scary, so we compromised with the Purge movies. We also got to be a 'buff couple" - well he's buff, I'm really not - and worked out at the gym. However, we also ate so well throughout my visit <3. My heart is in my stomach  hahah Once the weekend commenced we were able to hike, dance with friends, and adventure around San Francisco! In my noobie youtube video, you'll see the Hidden Garden Steps, boba cravings and jenga, and Sunday Funday  housewarming activities. I can't really tell you which day was my favorite. I had so much fun spending time with my loved ones while seeing beautifu...

Wednesday morning musings: Friendships

Image
"The better part of one's life consists of his friendships." - Abraham Lincoln haha the great thing about agenda books are the quotes, albeit some sound so generic. I used to be afraid that I couldn't make lasting friendships. That I was not compatible, or someone not loving and worthy enough for another person to invest their time and effort to develop a lasting relationship. This is partly due to freshmen and sophomore year of college when I was making new friends and losing old friends over things that I now consider very petty. And also dating guys for a little more than a month because I didn't feel chemistry and didn't want to delve in deeper and invest my emotions and my own time. We're all a little egotistical and immature when young. But hey, I'm glad I went through those experiences and really learned to cherish the people that God has put into my life. And now have amazing relationships with those who I am absolutely excited to grow w...

I Wanna Be Yours - Arctic Monkeys

It's funny, I tried to like Artic Monkeys when I was in high school but my musical preferences were different back then. Ever since, I adamantly thought I didn't like their music. Today, I am absolutely loving this song and you can count me as a new fan

Foxes - Echo

Did you know I only post songs up here if I actually like the song enough to put on repeat at least 4x in a row? haha my closest friends know that I absolutely do not like to listen to songs on repeat (I really hate having songs stuck in my head, it's so distracting and annoying :/ I knoww, there are people who LOVE songs and have them on constant replay throughout their days). Therefore, whenever I care to listen to a song over and over for a brief moment, I know I have to add it to a playlist. :) Also, don't you love it when youtube recommends a song for you and it's such a bullseye keeper. Technology can be creepily accurate with all the data we input daily.. I can hear your thoughts Oh please don't leave now I can't sleep alone Chasing the light until the dawn Thought we left a trail Back to the way that it was I can see it now In your eyes you let it fall Running in a crypt of a thousand words Hiding in the dark when the violence starts Looking for a s...
