nail lacquer

One fact about me is that I'm always changing my nail color. I've been like this ever since I first got a hold of nail polish as a little girl. Even regular customers at my work notice it! Lol.. Today I was helping this old man I don't even remember. I guess he remembered me cuz he said something to me like, "changed your nail color again ey?" lol ~ I've been using American Apparel's Nail Lacquer. I usually only buy OPI cuz of the quality ~ but AA had interesting nail colors, so I decided to try it out. Plus it was cheaper than OPI and they had a promotion sale of 3 colors for $15. I'm surprised by the quality, because it's actually better than what I expected. I like how it's bold and heavy ~ so one stroke already gets the job done. I also really love the unusual color selection!! ^-^ time to change my nail polish again!

what makes me lose hope in humanity?

"to realize that there are those in humanity that are willing to kill each other just because they're different..
to realize the fate of all humans in the end is a death...
to see a man brutally beaten in public and nobody helps them...
to see a woman raped and the man who raped her walk away free...

I could list many of things, i could list till i die yet i would never be able to list it all. in this world we consider peaceful and happy, there is always people dieing of hunger, disease, murder... simply because we dont go and help them... for example third world countries, any major country such as USA or Britain or China could easily go to these dieing and sick countries and bring them from oblivion to frutation, yet we just sit and do nothing but complain.

how can a man sit in his home and think... hey i had a bad day i stubbed my toe and it hurt... and think that he's the unluckiest person in the world.. when in parts of the world a child thinks hes the luckiest kid on earth for finding enough cans in a trash pile so that he and his family can eat a meal for the day...

what makes me lose hope in humanity? you ask me this on a computeur. an item of liesure that only 30% of the world has... what makes me lose hope is the fact that the world could come together and make the world thousands of times better. cure diseases, cure world hunger, stop crime all together.... and yet all we do... is nothing. that is what makes me lose hope in humanity. the fact that we purposely turn on our kin and let them die just so we can have a better life."

i was seriously having a bad day at work one time ~ and it led me to this. It's a post by George Welch ... some guy who posted a response on yahoo answers.

Sweet tooth

Ok I found these pictures online. Can someone please tell me where to get these!??

In with the new, out with the old.

Yay! I finally put up a new wall decal to replace my peeling flower branch one. Hehe.. I wanted to keep the same concept as my old one, but with a little bit more improvement. This one has color and a lot more to work with! ^^ I bought it really cheaply on Ebay!

Harajuku Crepes

Oh my yumminess. I think everyone needs to try a crepe from Harajuku Crepes. These are Japanese style crepes that are crispy and rolled into a cone. It's a little similar to Crepe Luv in Alhambra, but the batter is way different and it's a lot lighter and crispier. It's very interesting, because you can choose a crepe batter~ like Earl Grey, Green Tea, or Buckwheat. I got a Green Tea batter with Azuki beans, homemade whipped creme, Nutella, and Vanilla ice cream. Lorenz got Buckwheat with banana and Nutella. Hmm, Hmm.. Good. Their iced roasted Green Tea was delicious too! It complimented the sweet crepes perfectly! ^^

Stefan's At LA Farm

I've always wanted to go to this restaurant ever since I saw it on the news! LOL ~ The food was all right, but the service was amazing! It's run by Stefan from Top Chef. He's such a cool guy, because he comes out of the kitchen and starts talking to people. He even took us to the bar and bought me and Lorenz a shot of "Finish Me Off." LOL.. His drinks were all good, but my favorite was called "When I Was Fourteen." LOL~ the names were really silly! The small plates were really tasty, but gosh... they were REALLY small! For main dishes we got an Asparagus cream and Lobster soup and a Shepherd's Pie. We also got Stefan's signature Lollipop trio which was kind of like ice cream, but kind of not. Lol... It had pretty interesting flavors and a chocolate brownie center. I really think this is such a nice restaurant, but the location sucks and the food is pretty fancy (and so is the price).

Here's Stefan in Top Chef!

June Gloom

summer blues...

Babooshka + flower headband

GAH! This is the time when I wish I had more money! I looove clothes ~ and I think Babooshka is so cute.. -_- but super expensive. Spanish Moss Vintage sells a lot of their clothes, but some are sold out and the price is more expensive. You can visit Babooshka Botique at their Etsy store! There's actually a sale going on right now, but I still think it's way out of my budget. The last picture on this post is of the Daisy Chain Headband I want from Spanish Moss Vintage. I think it's so cuuute. *_* ...sighh..

mobile mash up + bar hop

On Saturday (June 5th) I went to the Mobile Mash Up at the Verdugo Bar with the cute couple Sarah and John. I was really looking forward to Frysmith and the Buttermilk truck, but both left an hour before we got there. :( We just settled for Vietnamese sandwiches, Lomo Arigato, and Dainty cakes. I thought the Mobile Mash Up would be a lot better than what it was ~ It was kind of disappointing. TT_TT

Once the sun came down and the temperature cooled off, Lorenz and I made out way to 72North bar in Pasadena. We met up with my friend, Maricris, to celebrate the DJ's bday. After that we walked over to club Menage. I didn't really feel like going, because there was a line and we each had to pay $10 to get in. Fortunately, one of the guys who worked there let us cut in line and let us girls in for free. The guys still had to pay ~ but overall it was a good deal. :) hehe

mr. big

I finally watched Sex & The City 2 - twice! Once with my friend Malynn and another time with Lorenz! Lol.. I absolutely love Samantha! She is so funny! I also really loved all of Carrie's Halston Heritage dresses! Gosh.. what was up with that? Most of her dresses were from Halston Heritage! - marketing!

School's out!

I guess this is my first blog post for the month of June. I'm sorry for updating my blog in chunks ... I just can't seem to be consistent in everyday posts. Anyways, Lorenz and I decided to dress up in school uniforms one day. I know~ random, but it was suppose to be for a music video I was going to make at Disneyland. That plan didn't fall through, so we just ate at Umami Burger at Space 15Twenty. Yumm.. Umami.. It's always so simple and delicious! ^^ I want more tempura fries! Hehe.. It was a fun day ~ and random people were taking photos of us with their cell phones. lol
