OC Fair


August 6 

One of the family traditions to attend this event. It was really fun spending time with my family and my auntie before heading back to college. I loved the photo gallery art exhibit. Some people are so gifted and talented with their photography skills. Tried something this time and got a Maui bowl that includes rice, pineapples, and chicken. Really good. It was a well spent day with family.

Bye Bye Summer


Hello my fellow readers! Summer is coming to an end and school is right around the corner. I was only able to squeeze in a few friends in. A dessert trip to Afters Ice Cream with my tech group, Vivian, Jordan, Amber, and Matthew, a pizza trip to Pieology with Samir, and a lunch plus dessert run with my best friend, Kim at Oo-Kook Tofu & BBQ and Freezing Point. My sister came home a few days ago with tea and dessert, tea from Tan-Cha (super cute name as it is the English way of saying refreshing/relaxing with tea) and dessert from Lady M. The tea was so good! Tiramisu cream on the top and the tea was oolong tea. Not too sweet and super cute with the little shovel to eat it with. Adorable! The slice of cake was light and fluffy.

Tomorrow I move into the apartments on campus. Ahh! I will be busy soon enough, but don't you worry! I got seven posts in the making. Got all the pictures ready and just need the written portion of it. They be all coming soon! I'm planning to have them be coming out each week for the next seven weeks. Hopefully that works out, but if not, I will be sure to inform you in the next post. For now, have a wonderful rest of your week!

Alaska Cruise Sneak Peek

Hello hello hello! I am back in LA from my Alaska Cruise on board the Emerald Princess. I am assuming some of you heard about the murder on board and how the passengers were stuck on the ship for a long time. Despite it ruining the day on Juneau (but we salvaged it), the cruise was a success! My first cruise, filled with joy and lots and lots of FOOD. I decided to document my trip with some videos, so yesterday, July 31, I worked on it by using Premiere Pro for the very first time. Here is a sneak peek of what is yet to come about my Alaska Cruise experience. Exporting it out reduced the quality, so the quality isn't the greatest. Hope you guys still like it! I will learn more about Premiere Pro to be better the next time I use it! Click the following: Alaska Cruise to get a little taste of my trip. Enjoy!

P.S. I  updated the previous post, June To Mid-July Recap. I apologize for the delay.

June To Mid-July Recap



        Hello everyone! Sorry for being off blogging for so long. Summer courses are officially over and I have been busy getting things ready for Fall semester at CSUF. I've been on two friend hangouts, food adventures (one bad experience), and movie outings. I also was able to go to D23 Expo this year too. I'll explain more about this time period below.

June 6 - Finally had a reunion with my best friend, Kim. We headed to Daikukoya to get lunch and then to Hooshik for some dessert. Both places were her first time there. It was really cool for her and she liked it. We talked for about 5 hours after about 5 months. Definitely not enough time, but no worries! One more hang out before we are off to our second year in college. Crazy how fast one year of college has gone and I am about to start my second real soon. I made the two artworks for her. Just a little something to remember out friendship up in San Francisco and a little encouragement in the nursing field for her. (:






Before summer courses started up, my mom and I went out to eat lunch. No better way to enjoy the summer before summer school starts than with my mumsy and food. Great combo. (:

June 10-11 - Food Places Featured: Phoenix and Bakers and Baristas







During summer classes, my mom and I went out for lunch occasionally on Thursday's or Friday's. On a very great great note, for my theatre course, I watched two plays and saw Andrew Leeds, who played the character, Christopher Pelant in Bones. I saw him at the second play I watched and I thought this guy looked very much like Pelant himself. Tempted to ask, I decided to ask after the show. After the show, I was scared a bit to ask because if it isn't him, that would be embarrassing. I texted my sister and she said just go for it. Nothing to lose. When I got the courage, I couldn't find him, and then later I saw him and asked if he was Andrew Leeds. IT WAS. It was so cool! He is very nice, totally contrary to his character in the show. An amazing actor and it was a privilege to meet him in person. 

June 23 - Food Place Featured: Teto Sweets
It was pretty good. The service was alright. The interior design reminded me of the cupcake place, Crushcakes & Cafe, in Santa Barbara. 






June 29 - Food Place Featured: Dolci LA


June 30- Food Places Featured: D'Vine, Cinnaholic, and Hapa Cupcakes
I went to Fullerton to do some stuff with my parents and we at lunch there. I am so in love with Mediterranean food. Can you tell? Haha. This Mediterranean food place was an upper class version from Pita Hot, more sophisticated. Both are still wonderful places. Cinnaholic was so good! I liked how it wasn't too sweet. Finally got to try Hapa Cupcakes after doing research on it for an interview/research paper (it was my backup entrepreneur company to interview). I could not taste the green tea flavor, but I will try it again to see how their other cupcakes taste.

I do not recommend this place. Terrible service and they added money to our bill after we turned in the cash to pay. We noticed the total price was marked up after they returned the change to us. The food was alright too. I will not go back.

It was really good. I really liked it. First time going.
