dream high

Yes :D.



So, I've been watching this new Korean drama series that my boyfriend told me about called "Dream High"...starring Suzy from Miss A (female group from S. Korea). You know how sometimes songs bring back memories of a certain time in life? I listened to Miss A's songs a lot during the start of our relationship...so they'll always have some kinda special place in my heart. Anyway, I'm already super addicted to the series. thanks boyfriend. It's about hopes, dreams, competition, debt, and love (triangles). You should totally watch it.


reminds me of mc Escher's stuff. this is us getting desserts in the village of Dededo. My brother left to San Diego a few days ago. I got teary-eyed when I had to hug him goodbye at the airport. I'm such a sensitive...I bawled my eyes out at the airport when I had to leave San Diego in August...I think I scared this lady because my eyes were so red. Anyway, even though we argue a lot, he's pretty fun to have around. He's attending university for the first time ever! I wish him luck.



sushi from Benii :). the interior decor is sooo awesome.


friends' feet at my buddy's house in umatac. his backyard is literally the ocean. lucky guy.


so intricate. I love it.


keep it clean. this is a beach on Guam. ain't the water gorgeous? I was sitting in this spot (which i thought was high enough so the tide won't get me. WRONG) All of a sudden a rush of water comes outta nowhere and soaked my khaki shorts so that it perfectly looked like I peed myself... directly under my crotch and my whole back side
-__-. moist pants are not a good feeling.

plans and pipe dreams


Happy New Year! photo taken on 01.01.11 from Guam, where America's day begins


To talk about 2010 would make me sad and reminiscent of the blissful times that I feel like I won't be able to experience again for a long time...so I'd rather not. le sigh.

plans for 2011
▲ I need to find a job and SAVE MONEY.
▲ get a tattoo!
▲ learn to bake, make sweets
▲ take more photographs.
▲ grow my hair out again
▲ read a couple of books. i haven't wholeheartedly read a book since like middle school but it's about time i tried to. so far, i have one in mind. i hope the bookstore carries a copy.
▲ work on my anxiety issues. I went to the supermarket today and was almost afraid to go by myself...it's strange, because I usually like going places by myself. I think I've been home too long. I never really felt this way before.
▲ to start and run a cafe selling sweet desserts and appetizers/snack. it'll never happen, but i can dream:)
▲ move to san francisco, seattle, or somewhere in southern california, get a puppy, work hard, and be happy...another pipe dream that lingers in the back of my mind.



i don't usually like cats , but i like to follow this one

muning


hello, this is my friend's cat named "muning", which means cat in filipino. hey cat.


i hope everyone had a nice holiday. i did what i've done every holiday these past few months... eat chinese food at home -__-. hmmmm. i think afterwards we went to look at christmas lights around the island with my brother and his gf, my sister from another mister. then got drinks at this little place called jungle java. they serve matcha frappes now (for $6. ridiculous! i could buy a whole meal with that money). and it's not as good tapioca express's either. speaking of matcha, i bought some matcha powder today - $6.50 for a tiny bag. there's something about the color that turns me on. LOL. and i love the taste. it's like subtly sweet. i'm gonna do some experimenting with it - donut glaze, drinks, cake mix, etc. excited. what a glutton i am. i've even been dreaming of food these days (cookies, KFC). and i wake up drooling. i think it's these damn braces affecting my subconscious.

stuff


from china. went crazy on the polka dots. but my aunt got those for me. :P




my brother and his gf got me this kid robot donut pillow for my birthday. THEN, for christmas, they got me a mini donut maker! ♥ the glasses frames i got it at some random booth in China for like $3 USD..extremely cheap plastic. but i like the colors A LOT (it's black and fades to green). got it prescriptioned at Lenscrafters there for about $50 USD O_O...


B* got his gifts in the mail today that i sent him. they were small things, but he said he really liked them and it made his day :). that made my day! i miss him.

next post will be about new years resolutions, dreams for 2011 :). this blog layout needs an update. my face needs an update.

my trip to guangzhou in pictures

November 29, 2010, I left Guam for Hong Kong with my dad via Continental Airlines. We stayed at Nikko Hotel for a couple of nights. He was meeting with his old friends from 30 years ago. They were having some sort of reunion I guess. I just followed my dad and his friend for the most part.

HONG KONG








After 2 days in HK, we went on a 2 hour train ride to Shenzhen (China). Got there with maybe one too many luggages -- China's taxi cab trunks are hella small. We ate at home for most of our trip. Did enough walking to last us a whole year. I should have bought more stuff but a lot of their clothes were for winter. The young people are pretty style conscious these days. If only I were returning back to America instead of Guam, I could have used some of those coats and sweaters and boots. OH EM JAY. They have so many shoes. SO SO SO many shoes. I only bought two pairs... of sneakers -__-. Things are really cheap, just the way I like it...but I don't think I can live there without a translator :(

GUANGZHOU
