Richard Phillips

He's a photorealist painter behind the artworks you see in Lily Bass' apartment in Gossip Girl. My friend, Mary, posted this video he made with Lindsay Lohan. It's kind of WTF, but beautiful at the same time. LOL

THE BOYFRIEND EARNS EXP POINTS

GAHHH!!! Soooo... I guess the boyfriend has been reading my blog!! Remember how I wanted this Comme des Garcons wallet?? Well.. I got it!! O_O It just magically appeared in my bag.. SERIOUSLY! As usual, I dug into my purse to get the keys for my car. Instead I found this unusual box! I opened it ~ and it had a letter and the wallet I wanted!! GAHHH .. How sweeeet!!! Awwww.. Lorenz I love you!! You REALLY didn't have to do this!!!

The Getty!

I don't care much for the artwork inside The Getty, but I do looove the garden and the architecture! Lorenz and I had a little exploring adventure on a Lazy Sunday.

You've got mail!

A couple weeks ago~ I got a sweet, little package from Julia-Omeeh!! I was so excited and really wasn't expecting anything!!! She sent me a letter with a bunch of Korean snacks to help me study for finals! I actually recorded myself opening the package .. but I don't want to post it, because I look so crappy. haha.. Anyways, thank you so much Julia for sending me this!!! I ate a lot of the snacks!!! Now I'm ten pounds heavier!! More of me to love!

Woodspoon

I love this little restaurant! It's pretty pricy ~ but they have such yummy Brazilian Chicken Pot Pies! I also really love their appetizers .. like their creamy coconut shrimp dumplings and their Sangria!! The decor is so cute and simple and their napkins are adorable!!! Lorenz and I were playing with them ~ I made mine into a headband while lorenz made his into a bib. They also put a cinnamon stick in their water. It kinda gives it a subtle flavor.

ART IN THE STREETS

KC's friend, Chiyo.

This is what happens when I'm studying for finals.

wild hearts can't be broken

Took these pics near the Japanese garden at my school. There was a field of grass and I decided to explore! I found a strange little area that had like a mini shrine or memorabilia / time capsule kind of place. Pretty strange~ but cool!

Apple Pan!

So freakin delicious!! If you haven't tried this place yet ~ you must go NOW! The burgers were so juicy and tasty! The lettuce was so fresh and crispy! I don't know what's with these odd combos of burgers and pies, but I love em! Apple Pie à la Mode & Banana Cream Pie ... YUMMM. Just don't go on a super busy time >< .. it's self seating .. & it's a long bar/communal type of table ~ pretty interesting actually. When I went there were no seats available and I had to wait until someone was done eating. People pretty much watch you like a hawk wanting to take your seat! haha

World of Color

Last week was Erik's birthday and we surprised him by taking him to Disneyland! We explored both parks and we finally all got to see World of Color! Oh my goodness!!.. It was sooo magical! The only thing I didn't like about it was where we stood. We were standing at the splash zone and we got soaking wet! haha .. but all in all ~ it was still a magical night! Here are some photos I found on Tumblr of World of Color. I couldn't take much of my own, because my camera would get too wet from where I was standing!

dream of a dream to feel

HANNA ~ I really enjoyed the cinematography in this movie, but most of all, the MUSIC.

Peace Tea

This is a Peace Tea commercial I made with my group for our Advertising class. We filmed it at Seal Beach near my campus and had a lot of fun making it!

Say Cheese

I finally got to have brunch at this little cafe in Silverlake called Say Cheese. My sister told me about this place and I was so eager to go that I went there for lunch one day. I was sooo sad that the brunch menu was only until noon and I couldn't order the Coddled Egg breakfast. I ended up getting this sandwich called Gay Paris or something like that. Lol.. interesting name. It had a bunch of different cheeses and it was pretty good. I finally went back for brunch and got the Coddled Egg breakfast with smoked salmon. YUMMM.. so good.. I want to go back for more!! The lady that worked there even remembered me and Lorenz cuz she joked around about having brunch in the menu this time.

PS: the bottom picture is when I was walking Dunkin after eating at Say Cheese. My mom gave him away :( ... I can't wait to have my own place and have my own dog. Every time we get a dog I get so attached to it .. even though I know not to since my parents can't ever keep a dog for more than a month. Ugh.. so annoying. Why do they do that? They bring in a dog, I end up loving it, and then they take it away. I'm glad they gave Dunkin away though, because my parents don't know how to take care of animals. He belongs in a new home where the owners would treat him like family.

Twelve South

I got Lorenz this iPad bookcase last month for his birthday. I think it's pretty cool ~ cuz it actually looks like a book and it's really functional. If you want to watch a movie you can make it stand and adjust the angle. The quality is great and it fits both the the old and new iPad versions.

COMME DES GARÇONS

I want this wallet so badly! ... but can't afford it :<

in love with the harp and how she says "moon"

CLICK PLAY... and then scroll through my blog as you listen. ^_^

my neighbors have my dream home

This is the home of Andy, Gosia, Anton, and Charlie (the dog). They are my next door neighbors and I'm in love with their house! They completely renovated it and made it into a spacious, bright, and comfortable space. I love the high ceilings, wide windows, long doors, and hardwood floors. The arrangement of the furniture is so simplistic, but the artwork on the walls give it a modern edge. ~ If you guys are reading this~ thanks for letting me take pictures of your cute home!!! Anton is such a cutie pie.

i love

sitting around like a little kid again and watching cartoons all morning. I love dreams that you don't want to end and finding money that you didn't know you had. I love hugs from behind and immature inside jokes. I love laughing till it hurts and being called beautiful. I love knowing you made someone's day. I love singing in the shower, talking for hours without running out of things to say and photography that captures the moment perfectly. I love those days where everything seems to go just the way you planned and I love feeling like you could just conquer the world.

GAP COMMERCIALS

LOL.. What's with these old Gap commercials??

i wonder if things that remind me of you remind you of me
