i heart sf

My stupid boyfriend April fooled me, then surprised me with a ticket to San Francisco so we could spend our 5 year anniversary together (04/04/04)... probably the most spontaneous thing he's done, ever. hah. hm, anyway. it was fun and eventful weekend. This is going to be a long, detailed post.



On Friday, we went to Haight St (one of my favorite places to go). I go into American Apparel to check out the Afrika printed stuffies they have. and the dressing room attendant is none other than Marjorie from last season's America's Next Top Model. WUT..

Ok, so that is not me in the yellow sweater. hehe. I got the photo from this guy's posting about the same weird encounter with the reality tv star. but yep, she had platinum blond hair just like in the photo. She was quite tall (dur). I didn't really want to intrude on her work, but I overheard the guy in the fitting room next to me telling her how she looked like that girl from ANTM. and she was like "yup". I caught her doing a cute little chicken dance while talking to another girl. It was really bizarre for me... seeing someone I see on tv in real life.

Afterward, we went to Isobune Sushi in Japantown for dinner. Small boats floating on water carried the sushi around the bar.





On Saturday, we went downtown by bus. stopped by Saigon Sandwich along the way. I love this place. They're sandwiches are only $3 and they've got great reviews. They have some kind of special sauce that makes their sandwiches especially delicious. I think it's warm mayo, err something.





did some shop-seeing. The first tier of that huge building is forever 21's three-story shop. The second photo is of Zara.




Lily Allen was having a (sold out) concert at the Warfield that I really reeaallly wanted to go to. But I opted to save money, and we watched Adventureland instead. It's got a 89% rating on rottentomatoes. It was sweet... except, I think I'd probably understand it more if I were a thirty-something year old. I heard some older folks reminiscing about the 80s shortly after the movie. The main character was like a slightly less awkward version of Michael Cera. and Also, I'd like to express my envy of Kristen Stewart. Not only does she get to kiss Robert Pattinson in Twilight; but she makes out with Ryan Reynolds in Adventureland. WHY?

Today, we attempted to go thrifting in the Mission - but didn't find anything. The weather was great! sunny and hot -- a rarity for SF. There was this alleyway filled with artwork; it was pretty neat.



San Francisco <3

spring breaking

I'm a terrible blogger. Last week was finals and this week is spring break so I've just been chillaxing. getting fat. I go back to school on Monday...ugh. I need to upgrade my flickr account to pro soon.

We ate at this all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ restaurant the other day. and it was so funny because they were playing gangsta rap and Lil Wayne the whole night. haha

sreep sreep sreep.

takoyaki... mmm

I changed the layout a tiny bit. black, hmmm. I'm still thinking. Ever since I was younger, when it came to layout stuffies, like xanga for example (which I still have by the way, puauahaha) - I would stay up all night trying to fix it until I thought it looked right. I get super irritated when the alignment or colors are not in harmony. I brought the fish banner back. I found that image of the the yellow colored fish somewhere I forget, and I can't explain. I just love it. It's just a perfectly illustrated cartoon fish in the perfect color.

Next week is going to be hell. I probably won't have any time to update. or breathe.


I like the way this turned out. I got the idea in a post from cotton shrinks

top abercrombie & fitch / skirt forever 21 / shoes aerosoles (from Ross!)

The skirt looks wayyy cuter in person. except I have the hips of a BEAST - so it's a little shorter than I'd like. Oh ! Free Nylon magazine #2 came in. I love free things :D

BALMAIN FALL 2009

pink rabbit - forever 21's Shibuya Mon Amour

The weather was so good yesterday. and by good, I mean nice and warm. I can't remember the last time I wore shorts out. I think I'm ultimately a hot weather kind of girl. hmm, sorry for not updating for over a week. I'm still kinda of recovering from being sick. Winter quarter ends in two weeks. For some reason, I kind of don't want it to end. I have huge assignments with very little time left. and I'm also taking this political science class (as an elective) with 350 other students - I like going to that class. oh wow, IT'S ALMOST 6AM! the sun is up! WHY AM I NOT ASLEEP!?
