Current Video On My Mind:
Okay I’m sorry but I watched this shit like 329374824 times and i CRACK the eff up every time. This lady is hilarious…part of the reason being that I think she’s trying to do an actual serious makeup tutorial haha. But you know this is legit stuff because Michelle Phan commented and even favourited it (and i LOVE Michelle Phan yay!). Yeah, eff fancy vibrating mascaras (eg, Maybelline) just vibrate your own damn head ok.
Current Picture On My Mind:
I saw this on PG’s page HAHA and thank you this is hilarious and so true.
Which leads me to the…
Current Movie On My Mind:
“Better than Chocolate!” I was having a Lesbian movie marathon yesterday and busted out the “Saving Face,” “Better than Chocolate,” and a new amazing discovery–”I Can’t Think Straight!” I just LOVE lesbian movies because (some) most of them tackle gender, sex, and sexuality taboos. I love movies that bend your mind, and unusual couplings/scenarios that would usually never surface into our mainstream media. YAY INDIE FILMS. YAY (some) GLBT FILMS. I think “Saving Face” is still my all-time favorite though–the funny parts are HILARIOUS and the sad parts are SO SAD. You’re crying one minute and laughing hysterically the next–definitely a sign of a great movie (=
And to end this,
I just made fried rice for the first time in my LIFE today. FROM SCRATCH. Yes, I know I am an almost-21-year-old Chinese American but KEYWORD American and thus I don’t cook.
No seriously though, I made the rice and then fried the rice, and put everything into the fried rice MYSELF!! I am so proud (= *waits for applause*
Okay well, you don’t want to know what’s in there, but it’s basically anything and everything I could find in my fridge–but hey, that’s kind of what fried rice/bibimbap style food is, right? You just take whatever shit you can find in the fridge and mix it with rice and sauce and its good (=
So i have (kind of hard/undercooked) rice, canned crab, salt, olive oil, stir fry oil, lao gan ma chili sauce, eggs, chickpeas (from yesterday’s hummus bros takeout), and broken bits of fried dumplings (i tried to fry frozen dumplings but they came out in a wad and got all broken up when i tried to break it apart so i just threw it into the fried rice too…)…..woo.
And guess what?
It is so good.
*proud*
purple print leopard dress from topshop that now belongs to sharone..

cheers!

Current Obsession: Bodysuits
Posted: April 29, 2010 Filed under: Fashion, Restaurants, Reviews, Travel, Uncategorized 3 Comments »Call them what you wanna–bodysuits, leotards, onepieces… whatever–I love ‘em. Two days ago I went out to Topshop and scooped up this amazing find:
except in lilac. imagine this worn over a black bandeau (or any color really, though preferably solid) and underneath a pair of denims (high waisted would look good too) with boots–hello spring! I also picked up a traditional red military suit style Jovonnista cardigan (with the black shoulderpads and metal tassels and everything!)
. 
a salute to topshop sale! this was originally 60 something pounds and i got it for 25! hurrah!
annnnd i got a Lipsy “Lace Panelled Jersey Dress”
classic and understated! sexy little black dress with an alluring sweetheart cut modestly overlayed with black lace…JUST what i needed for that classy evening staple ;D and i got a shitload of other cute things for myself and friends that i might post later.
Meanwhile, I’m looking up American Apparel bodysuits and drooling. I’m also thinking about creating a lookbook (lookbook.nu) but I’m hesitating because of my nooby photography skills (also I’m lazy, boo). Maybe later…we’ll see.
Right now I’m watching 2012 and eating Toblerone…I also just finished half a carton of Haagen-Dazs Cookies & Cream Ice Cream. dammit I keep telling myself to stop because its SPRING and nearing minimal clothing season…but my mouth wont obey and it just keeps eating )= Anyway I leave you all with a few pictures.
beachin’ it up in Greece woo! I found the ADORABLE hat for around 13 Euros at this cute little Greek brand shop called “achilleas accessories.” This is also my first time wearing this new retro-ish BRIGHT RED swimsuit I got at Victoria’s Secret before coming to the UK (inspired by rachel mcadam’s suit in “the notebook”). Didn’t think I’d get the chance to wear it…well, at least not in the uk hahaaha.
afternoon tea with sharone and grace a while ago at Concerto in London
–i HIGHLY recommend this place. i got a sandwich and it was AMAZING. this set was for two (sharon and grace ordered afternoon tea set) and it filled them up just right. three different types of sandwiches, two different types of scones (with a little jar of jelly each!), and two yummy strawberry tarts on top. I think the total for this entire set was around 12-14 pounds (tea included). everyone got their own separate pots of hot water for our tea as well. my sandwich was around 8 pounds (i THINK, tea not included). All in all it was very reasonably priced, very cute (although the shop itself was a bit cramped as it was so busy), and very very good!
until next time babies!
