Merry Christmas & Happy Boxing day!



I worked this Xmas...but 1.5 pay. so it's okay. i would work all the holidays if i could. keke.

so this morning (yesterday morning now) i opened my one and only gift from my brother& sis-in-law (my family doesn't really celebrate Xmas and this year, since i have a job it was my turn to get my family gifts.)

here's the gift:
Bold colors! perfect for work and bummy casual days.

I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas...and all are welcoming the 2010!

on a side note, my current obsession:

CREATING DESTINY
it's so cute and romantic. i'm really enjoying this drama!~
this is the MV for one of the songs in the OST. i know whoever is watching this drama is anticipating for these Australia scenes! i think it's soon!

a promise is a promise

so i promised to hotaru that i'll blog once i get my hands on the sorels boots that i need for the winter.

i spent this weekend at my brother's place since it was my niece one month old celebration...although we didn't have a big banquet or anything. we had a really nice family dinner. nonetheless, i had a very lazy weekend that consist of going to walmart, T&T and Grant's supermarket for random things and ice cream.

here are some of the things i bought since i last blogged...and of course more to come but that's for the next blog. (Xmas is in 5 days...i'm working...so not exactly celebrating...but it's the most festive season of the year!)


here are the Randy flats i got from Coach...they were marked incorrectly for 99 dollars...so i got them for that price!


so the other day...my computer was attacked by viruses...so i thought better to be safe than sorry...i got myself this portable mini harddrive...it's super cute!

and here they are! i finally got my hands on these. i ordered them through the BROWNS/B2 website cuz every store i've been to were out of sizes. they arrived on friday when i was at my brother's...they'll be good for the cold bitter winter...now i dont have to worry about getting my shoes wet...cuz usually i wear uggs and those stress me out every winter cuz they get ruined.

NEXT: to be continued...

Gmarket

ok. so i've had two orders in the past month and a half...or so.

this one i am going to post about came in a gynormous box, i didn't expect it to be this big either...
it was an order combine with stuff for myself, hotaru and another friend of ours. there wasn't many items but i guess they were just big...

i don't have pictures of them taken by my camera since i lent my camera to a friend at that point. so images are taken from Gmarket...

my red beanie! i love this beanie to bits...more than the other ones i bought from Gmarket...reason why is that this one seem to hold onto my head a bit more than the other ones.

boots...i love these~ i've gotten really cute fake uggs from this seller...too bad they don't ship internationally anymore...they're really comfy and light weight.

my brown cardigan...it looks pretty much like the wilfred one i was eyeing at Aritzia. just a whole lot cheaper.my jacket in black...i was hoping something a little thinner but this is nice too...good for the fall weather. nice quality for its price! i guess i'll get a thinner one when spring rolls around...!


SNP spot cream! it came with a lot of samples and cotton and a little scrub thing. this spot cream is some good stuff. it makes my pimples shrink the next day! it was a good deal...i got two of everything for less than 20US...compare to buying it here...it's 25CAD for just the tube. gave the other set of stuff to hotaru...i hope she makes good use of it. although she doesn't even have pimples!
this anticipated item! (inspired by Go Mi Nam in You're Beautiful) circular scarf. i didn't get it in grey tho. mine is this purple-ish lavender color. it's like grey and purple combined...something like that. and i absolutely love it. it's soft and thick enough to keep me warm and most importantly it's not heavy. LOVE IT. BUY ONE! i am going to get more...i just need to restrain myself from gmarketing for December. can't afford it...at the moment.
my reversible vest! love this item too! although it's hard for me to wear vests cuz i always think it's not warm enough but i love this! i will wear it more often...but now that it's cold...hmmmm. i wore it once tho! and another reason for my red beanie. keke. <3
Etude house lip tint! love this item too. i got the orange (2nd from the left) and the pink (last from the left) i haven't tried the orange yet but the pink makes my lips a little lighter which i like cuz i find my lips are a bit too red. i find that you have to use a lip concealer to really bring out the color. that's my opinion anyways. you can't see it if you just put it on your lip.
the gloss for the pink one is very sparkly. it's very cute. i'll update on the orange one next time.

so only eight items. i wish i got more. but for some reason this order was more satisfying than the last.

i know i will make another order soon...(as soon as i recover from this one) and my Xmas shopping. haha.

it's been awhile...

it's been awhile...goodness...I don't know if i should say I've been busy or lazy but anyways...I've been working a lot and during my days off, I've been catching up with friends and family.

anyways...there's been purchases in the last two weeks or so...there's quite a few images so I will probably make a separate post for it.

let's just start out with some old stuff.
This is my winter jacket for the next few years (although doesn't mean I won't buy more jackets keke)
The Community brand jacket from Aritzia which I already see a million other girls wear it. but heck, I owned a TNA jacket...which even more girls have. I really like this jacket and the fur on the hood attracted me...i dont know why.

This is actually my latest purchase...PJ pants from Bluenotes, it was their buy one get one free! so i just had to buy them! i love the quilted pattern ones....i've been eyeing them for awhile, just didn't buy them til there was a deal. In fact, i am wearing them now!

Underwear from Aeries, the forest green one is just adorable with the little frills! and the other stars one just reminds me of the kdrama "you're beautiful". Now i can associate stars with that drama. TOO CUTE!

Dinner I had with Hotaru the other day...at Sunrise Restaurant at downtown Ktown...it is a new restaurant (newly owned, i suppose) and we decided to give it a try...

the appetitzers! it was yummy! jap-chae, spicy cucumber, bean sprouts, seaweed, kimchi, and potatoes.


my dish: kimchi fried rice with beef in a stone pot. it was good except it was too hot (temperature-wise) took me forever to eat it.

the seafood pancake with rice cake. this was okay...maybe i would've prefered if it had more kimchi...did it have kimchi at all? maybe i'll try the kimchi one next time...
Lastly, hotaru's dish: Kimchi stew with pork and dumplings. i think this was probably the best out of everything we ordered (i loved the appetitzers too). the stew is very tasty.

In conclusion, would I go back to this restaurant? YES! next time, i'll get the stew for myself and my hair and clothes didn't smell after...which is GREAT! it's a very cute restaurant!

on a side note: one thing about table-cooking restaurants is that my clothes and hair will smell after...and i dont like that...Sunrise restaurant isn't a table cooking restaurant like Seoul Restaurant...i dont think...

maybe it'll be our new place to go to...at least we'll have another option! keke.
