On december 2003, I made my way to united states. Never ever i expected that i could stay for so long and so in love with new york. Now 3 years later, i have not changed my mind yet. Altho i am still trying to find out what i am gonna do with my future, at least i know i can stay for a little bit longer.

In the city of no close friends, i spend most of my leisure time at the gym and bookstores and yet i am neither muscular nor a nerd..: )

I take life as it is and i try to get as much as from life experiences while i am still young. I've been given a lot of opportunities to spend my life abroad, my inside curiosity is like a three years old kid. Give me the world, i'll give you my heart. :P

My future dreams are managing my own cafe and traveling the world in 180 days.

Hello Summer !

Life has been good recently tho i am busier than ever. I am working 7 days, 64.5 hours a week. But i like what i am doing now, no stress, no sitting infront of computer, no paper works. I am a shopkeeper now. It may not sound as a terrific job, but i have no complain. I am happy with my life now. Smile 

Although i have been running around at my job, i am eating less, i am working out 4 days a week, somehow i am not losing weights ! As a matter of fact, i am heavier than i was in january. I don't know why. Maybe becoz i am happy. Heck ! I have stopped obsessing about it. I think i dont look so bad..hehe...

As the weather getting warmer, my face starts breaking out again..sigh..i want to change my skincare but still confused which one i should try. I am thinking about Shiseido since i can afford it , compared to Clarins ( much more expensive ! ).

I know i am not updating my life so often anymore. Maybe i'd be even lazier in the future.

Maybe because i am happy with my life now. I am happy!

Happy Summer !

Well, it has been a while (again!)...i am not so motivated to update this blog anymore, life is going good..i am busy at work, i don't use as much computer as before anymore..when i get home, i already get tired....

The thai massage that i had at Banyan Citi Spa was sooo good ! unlike a swedish massage, it full of surprises..i think i wasn't relaxing enough becoz i kept guessing what she was gonna do next..hahaha..but the feeling was good..i definitely will be back again on the next spa week...hehehe...

So yesterday, me and SB went to Angelo & Maxie's for his birthday's celebration. It definitely has a different crowd than City Crab. At Angelo, it's more than casual, the place was nice, but too loud for a romantic dinner. The prices are reasonable but it can't beat Outback for steaks ( at least according to us )...both SB and i agree that it was only a place that worth to go one time ( altho i think its warm chocolate souffle was delicious )...I am not saying the foods were bad, i just think the tastes at outback are better...

Afterwards, we went to Via for drinks. I had a cosmopolitan, which was very very good...for the first time in my life, i could finish the whole glass...hahaa...it must be the pollen allergy that i am having now...i didn't feel my face red until the last drop..hhhaha..

So anyway, that was only a little update...i wish i have something more to tell..

Long time no see ! i've been lazy ...hehe..

Well, i can only say i am not proud of myself for the last few weeks..i failed going to the gym as often as i wanted, my weight has gone back to the very beginning of this year (sigh! ), i bite my nails again..(double sighs !). I have noticed that if i was doing good for 2 weeks, i would fail the next week..it's a circle over and over again. Today i am going to vow again that i will go to the gym more often and eat less..i think i have given up my bikini resolution, but i am not giving up to lose weights. You can do it , girl !

SB and I had a little breakup, for the first time in my life, i lost my appetite. But then both of us weren't ready yet, we got together again a week later. There are some very basic problems on my side that need to be solved soon or later. I was very surprised that SB suggested to meet my family when they come to visit this year. The whole family is going to be shocked, i am not sure if iam ready for that.

We are going to banyan citi spa for massages this spa week...hehe..then in may and june, we have another mets games to watch. SB will get us tickets for one of the movies from tribeca film festival. His birthday is also on may..

I am really looking forward to bright days to come...

A Good Week

Good news! I've got a sunday job..hehe..it pays better than my last sunday job so i am pretty excited about that. Problem is i have to work from 8 am. Sigh..very early ! but anyway, brighter days are coming up, gloomy days soon to be gone. :)

I have also made my comeback to the gym again this week..hehe..hopefully it will keep continuing..:P

I was surprised that Rob and Amber got eliminated on amazing race last week. I didn't like them, but i was hoping other team would beat them at the final. That would make a very good show. Well, guessed they were very unlucky this time. Somehow i love watching the remaining teams. All of them seem to be strong teams. Good show ahead !

Believe it or  not. I haven't eaten any junior's cheesecake or ferrara's cake since coming back from vegas ! I miss them but i must stop eating them for awhile ! This weekend, i might fall into it..haha..

Happy weekend !

Spring. New Changes?

My last entry was about me leaving my job, and now my current entry is about me staying at my old job. My boss had a long talk with me at vegas, encouraged me to stay, and told me some stuffs about the new job i was going to. Not that he was trying to bad-mouth about it, but there was a reason i was kind of hestitate to work at the new place. So anyway, i am staying.

Feeling fat these days. Of course, 2 weeks of not going to the gym definitely have made me a lazy bum. But every day is a new beginning, i vow to go back there tomorrow and start a new workout plan (again!). Four months til july, gotta hurry ! There is a possibilty that i would take a month off from the gym, and do my own workout, such as running outdoor in mid april. I have also made a subcription to Shape magazine..hehe...and definitely change my diet ( again!).

So spring is finally here. Love the weather, love the longer day time. Yesterday, we had a dinner at Caliente, a mexican restaurant at west village. Yummy foods but we thought they charged too much for the margaritas.

We also started making plans for summer. SB already got tickets for mets baseball game on may 30 ( altho i do not enjoy the game at all, but i do very much enjoy watching it together ). In july, we'll go to SF for a vacation ( yippee!). No booking has been made yet tho..hehe..

Spring means it's time to try a new colorful make up. Recently, i bought a mineral powder foundation from urban decay,  smashbox's tokidoki gloss and two faced's flushed blush. Next purchase will be a liquid foundation..haha..

I am looking forward to this new season..:)

Happy Piggy Year !

It's official ! Around the middle of next month, i will be working at another place. I don't know if i am taking the right step, but i am willing to take a chance. Who knows?

Anyway, last night, we were invited to celebrate the chinese new year's big dinner. All are friends and foods were good. Had too much foods, too much cakes !!! This was actually the first time we ever celebrated chinese new year's dinner at friends' house.

This morning, another trip to a mall...haha

I want to start this piggy year with new hope, new plans and somehow i am pretty optimistic about this year.

Happy V's day !

It's been a while since my last post. Life has been the same except that there's a possiblity that i'd change my job in march, after i come back from vegas' show. Still waiting for a confirmation from the new place. Hopefully i could get it. 

I almost wanted to give up my bikini resolution. Everytime i dropped one pound, i gained back another 2 pounds. It's like working out 5 days a week can never be enough. Tho i like to blame it on everything else but me, i must admit that in some weeks, i could only go to the gym 4 times/week. On weekends, i had let myself go. Those are the times the pounds came back. On my good days where i behaved nicely, i didn't see it went down. So in the end, since either ways are not working, i felt that i can never wear a bikini. Sigh. Last week, i went only once. Now who's to blame?

I can't wait for the piggy year to come. This better be a better a year for me. The dog year is definitely not a good one for me. I hope in the piggy year i'll have more luck in job and money..haha....i am such a superstitious person..haha...

SB and I had our valentine's day dinner yesterday. He took me to Blue Chili, a pan asian foods restaurant that kinda pricey. But the foods were excellent. I always like the part of having a dessert..haha...it was a chocolate souffle..yummy but still, can't beat outbacks' chocolate tower down under..ahhahaaa..

We finally feel that winter is here. Temperature dropped to 30s since weekend and it seems to be continued til next week. We even got a bit of snow 2 days ago. To me, this is the best winter i've ever had. Less cold and less snow..hehee...

Yan, i couldn't find the nine west's ballet shoes from its website, so i took my own. I have something like this from jcrew ( a very cute green ballet shoes ), but i just can't wear twice, it hurt my feet even just wearing it for a few minutes. I hope this one from nine west wouldn't be like that. Hopefully.

The last two weeks at work was busy and no-busy days. I haven't felt happy at works for a few months now. I know it's about time to look for something better, and i actually gonna add " looking for a better job " to my this year's to do list.

Next month, i'll be going to las vegas again.

No more updates.

First Week Down..

Just one week into new year, i fell off from my diet wagon. Sigh. Last night, i had too much sweets that i actually didn't crave. We got home early, around 5pm from the mall ( ps : bought a pair of nine west's ballet shoes ), i knew that i'd have that problem coz the more i stay home, the more time i have, the more i'll eat. Come to think of that, i really depend on exercising to control appetite. This is so bad.

Anyhoo, i did lose 2 lbs last week, hopefully it wasn't just water...

My sunday was pretty nice. At this moment, i am still really enjoying that free time. I went to bed really late on saturday and woke up 9 hours later. What a blessing! haha..but again, i'd prefer go to work on sunday than sleeping in on sundays. With no extra job, i do need to control spending. Sigh.

On A Rare Day Like That...

We’re into january but saturday felt like one of those cool summer days. Temperature was up to 70F !!! unbelieveable ! It was a treasure, even just for 1 day coz on sunday, the temperature will drop again to 50s.

I met SB at Spice, our favourite place for thai. He had siamese fried rice while i had phuket pineapple fried rice…but of course mine tasted better..hehe…But honestly, the foods at spice are not so great, just so so….they’re more like americanized thai foods. Know what i mean? That just reminds me of Ken who is thai and can cook really really good thai foods. Ahh, i miss his red curry rice..:)

Anyhoo, decided it was a good day for outside walking, we walked to a nearby bar, called Flight 151. I wanted to drink a virgin pina colada and SB wanted to watch football game, we ended up staying there for 1.5 hours, drinking and eating popcorn..haha….

It was a perfect date day for us… 

Both spice and flight 151 are located in chelsea, where one can find good foods & drinks and stay late. The most interesting about this area is more than half of the population ( according to me ) are same sex couples. Today, just walking from 23rd st to 19th st at 8th ave, i could say 90% were. I personally never against it, tho some of the people i know do not share the same opinion.

Since new year began, i managed only 3 days going to the gym. But i did manage to watch my diet. Tomorrow will be my self weigh-in day. This is going to be a challenge since i already made plan with my family for going out to a mall, which means more foods + snacks and no gym. Keep my fingers crossed..:P

Well, it’s already passed my sleeping time..ahhaa.. let me cut this off now…ciaoo….
