Personal update at lastttttt

I received a comment that I stopped making personal updates, and so here it is Neha, pictures of my lovely lovely face and personal adventures-- by the way, I love that you still check up on me, haha

Had to add this picture :)


As I always do, let's do this backwards. Haha.

Today (4/12/12): Had an alright day -- gym, shower, classes, followed by a delicious bacon burger from Bongo Burger with young Laura and young Janice. Always a delicious adventure.

Also also, I received my awesome birthday presents from Laura!!!! Yeeee, I love them! A book of sites, a book of important french words and sentences, and a lovely lovely journal and an even lovelier card -- kekekeke, love love love. Thanks Laura!!!!!

Couple this with the other awesome birthday present I received a while back from Lisa, I am all set!!!!
It's even annotated with TIPS!!!!! YEEEEEEEE! Thanks Lisa!!!!

Oh and of course, Laura introduced us to the video trailer that made her fall in love with the movie Ted Is Real. I would add a link but uh... the movie's rated R... and I don't want to offend anyone.
But hint, there is a delightfully catchy song about Thunder and thunder buddies.

And then ironically, there was a huge random thunder storm tonight, leading the three of us to text/sing the song. Haha.


Some food adventures this week:

A blueberry creme pie from Nation's. A bit overly sweet... creme isn't really my thing... I'll probably stick to Lemon Meringue or one of the Cheesecakes.

Carne asada taco and a fish taco from Casa Bernal on Shattuck. Very delicious and fresh fried tortilla chips, awesome!!!

Macintosh apple from Berkeley Bowl. Ehh, not my cup of tea. Too soft and not enough crunch for me. But man, look at how shiny it is!!!



Some shopping adventures this weekend:


I thought I looked quite spiffy in my jacket but the fit was kinda off and I was out-voted. Oh wells, my poncho is radddddd :) Who uses the word rad nowadays? ME! :)

Afternoon Tea at Crown and Crumpet in Ghiradelli Square on Easter Sunday
Quite a bougie Easter Sunday if I do say so myself. Experienced afternoon tea for the first time this weekend. Pretty pricey and an interesting experience but I probably wouldn't come back again to this specific location for afternoon tea. Our waiter was extremely nice but food service was terribly slow and pretty average for the high price.

The end of an adventure: Graduation on the horizon
I attended a grad fair on Friday and picked up my grad tickets and bought my cap and gown. Truly truly the end of a long journey but the beginning of another.
The picture was originally quite nice with my name and all that jazz but I realized I didn't really want my information all out there and what not. And indeed I think that is the conundrum of having a blog. It's private but it's also public and sadly, there are quite a large number of creepers out there nowadays.

Well, that's all for now. I have quite a bit more of updating to do but I'm so behind! :(

Korean Beauty Products

I could go on a tangent about beauty standards in Korea... but I won't. My goal is to review the beauty products that I have bought and tried here in Korea. In case you've ever visited Korea or ever plan to visit Korea, one of the first things you will notice is the overabundance of makeup stores -- Etude House, Nature Republic, TheFaceShop, Innisfree, Missha, Saem, It's Skin, Hanskin, Aritaum... the list goes on. Most of these stores are easily seen in shopping areas, university areas, and subway stations. In many locations, 2 or more of the same branches can be found within a 1/2 radius... I kid you not. Anyways, my point is that with such an abundance of stores and beauty products, it can be difficult to decide what products are worth it... and which aren't. The below reviews are solely my own opinion and derive from my personal experience with said products, so take from it what you will. *** First off, I'm actually going to review a U.S. product I purc...

huhhhhhhhh

You know how you feel when you are conflicted and then you get advice and then u feel unconflicted and then something inspires you or changes your mind and you are confused all over again. Yeah... that's where I'm at again. I thought I was sure about not extending. But even with all my doubts and logic, I still want to extend. Logically, financially, for all the reasonable possible reasons, all signs point to me going home... but the semester is half over and I have barely explored Seoul, much less South Korea, and Asia. My heart wants to stay. The heart wants what it wants. But my brain tells me to go home. But but... I think about it... and when will I ever have the chance to be an undergrad student at Yonsei again? At the end of the day, which decision will I regret more? Going home or staying? Pah..... ___ In other news, updates about my recent activities.... I went on a space tour company the other day/yesterday... not that interesting... after a short nap, ...
