Manicure-Much

Friday, July 26, 2013



My Instagram feed consists mostly of friends, food and nail polish. My previous post made me want to look at my old albums and check my past manicures. :)  I am not much of a nail-art kind of girl, I am more texture and accent nail.

Here are some..


 

 

     



 

    

                         

Polish Polish


Yesterday I kind of organized my nail polish collection.  I looove polish and I try and get a manicure/pedicure every week since high school.  I change my polish color that often - definitely! :)  I was looking at DIY ideas in YouTube and was totally inspired but too lazy to actually "build"something. I ended up salivating on how much nail polish one can have! I wish I have a glass fish bowl but I gotta make do with what I have.  I don't have much anyway. :P 


So now I just keep my stuff in 2 ceramic bowls.





I only have a number of bottles which I mix and match and most of these are really gifts from friends and family,

Random Monday

Sunday, July 21, 2013


I know it is just Monday - but I feel so tired already and it seems like I am already falling behind on stuff I need to do.  I've yet to do something very important and the deadline is today, the reason being I am still unsure what to do!!!


My friend Noel gave me an ipod shuffle a few months ago because he was so excited for me to start running.  He did give me my running shoes too :)  but since I have not gotten around to running after that first try I decided I will just use this for my commute. *evil laugh*

I am putting in new albums I have been meaning to listen to, so there. Bastille, Sarah Bareilles, Vampire Weekend!


I am addicted to watching What's in my bag videos in YouTube. I lose hours and hours because of it. Yeah.

Weekend?

Friday, July 19, 2013

It was is a busy week.  I am barely able to scribble something here and I still have to work tomorrow.  I have decisions to make.  I dont know what will happen. I need guidance.  I need a strong heart.

Borough and a tiny bit of Wildflour.

Friday, July 12, 2013



I have been meaning to write about Borough but I guess I forgot and only remembered today because Noel and I ate there for breakfast.  It is a resto/bar in The Podium which I love because it is open 24/7, although you have to get there before 5a if you plan on getting stuff from the lunch/dinner menu. They offer mostly comfort food with New York theme - which is super great.  Price is okay too - even the bar list. That's a win.

These are the stuff we've tried so far from the last 2 trips.  Pretty sure we will be back.


Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup - This. Is. Amazeballs.  'Nuff said except best way to eat it is to dunk it! 




Grilled Portobello Burger - Yummy.  Vegetarian burger that you would want to eat.  The fries is super yum too. (Dunk it in the Tomato Soup :P)



Chile Chicken Burger - Delish.  Mildly spicy chicken burger with Monterey Jack cheese.  I love the corn slaw but the best part is the Brioche bun! Yum!






Praline Pecan Waffle - I normally do not go for waffles but this one is so yummy.  The warm waffle and the ice cream is perfect!





This is not from Borough.  This is from Wildflour Cafe.  We went  there after breakfast to try their cronut but we were advised that it will be available at 11a so we just looked at all the pastries they have available - freshly made and decided we will get these two. 


Coconut Cupcake and S'mores Cupcake. Only half of each cake was eaten by me and Noel because it was too sweet - but still very delicious.  We took the rest home. :)

Turning 30

Thursday, June 27, 2013

In less than 24 hours I am turning 30.

The last 24 have been a blur of things happening that I have been overthinking since forever. I got news of something that could totally be a good thing- an absolutely great thing.  Something that I have prayed about for a long time. But I am scared.  I have been in this situation before- I have been here several times and I am scared that the danggling carrot in front of me will be pulled back again.  I guess I just have to believe that God has plans for me. I need to trust Him.  I trust Him.

I am grateful.  Scared but grateful. 

I am 30! Wow.


Goodbye Toothache.

Saturday, June 22, 2013


Finally got my stinking bothersome wisdom tooth taken out yesterday!  It was a relief that it will never be a problem anymore.  I was really scared before the surgery because it had been a couple of weeks since the date I should've taken care of it and the gums must have healed already making it even more impacted than before.  Plus, the surgery was a bit pricey so that kinda made me not want to do it anymore- but alas, my fear of further infection and low tolerance for pain got me thinking straight and had it removed.  Thank you to my really good dentist, Doc Elaine! The surgery wasnt that bad or uncomfortable.  Post op was a bit painful but thats to be expected.  Everything is fine now and just need to go back after a week for check up and my painful tooth saga will be gone forever. Yay.  

I did take my tooth home, in an ity bity ziploc bag because I wanted to look at the nasty thing up close. I could take a picture but really that is just way to icky. So No. 

Again, relief! Yay.

Sweet Dreams?

Saturday, June 15, 2013


I have been having a lot of dreams lately. Not the super weird nightmares I got before that totally made me lose my mind but the kind that has all the people I know alternately visiting me during slumber. 

It is not something to cry about it is just so unlikely for me to be dreaming about people I barely know and those I haven't seen in a long time everyday for the past week. Really? What the heck?
