Dust in the Details

You can see how dirty my keyboard is. Hahhh. I've been working a lot on my laptop and the stickers on my keys make it more enjoyable. Teehee, I'm a little girl!

A Little Sacrifice

I ate a lot of chips and 5-layer bean dip when visiting a friend. It was delicious. And we ordered Papa John's pizza with garlic sauce. It was over. Deliciously over.

Nathan wanted to watch Slumdog Millionare. We eventually did, after stuffing ourselves and running around and playing billiards and taking photos and driving to blockbuster and getting warned by the manager of the apartment complex...Friends are cool.

I Like It Hot

Ever since one visit to Tea Station in San Gabriel Valley where I boldly ordered the Hot Milk Tea, I've been a big fan. I'm supposed to be studying for midterms because I'm a bit behind and unprepared...but I just want to play :)

After School Sun

Walking back after class I ran into this. There are so many trees at UCLA.

Hey Now, I'm an All-Star

I was hoping this meal would cheer me up from the disappointment that is "Course Reserves".

Kid Cuisine always reminds me of childhood when my brother and I would beg mother for a Kid Cuisine dinner. I'm very thankful she gave into our tantrums, because those microwave brownies were worth it. Thank you, mommy.

One, Two, Many

I've had more of these Starbucks drinks than really necessary. It's all psychological anyways. Actually on Monday I had milk tea in the morning and two cups of hot green maicha tea in the afternoon and by dinner I was very jittery. It was bad news. But I'm still so tired. And seeing as it's 1am, I kind of know why. Kind of.

I Don't Know Where to Start

I went out for tea and dessert with apartment mate. I was embarrassed about how long it's been since we had a heart-to-heart...which almost prevented me from initiating the date in the first place. But all embarrassment aside, it was nice.

Cow On a Pie

I had dinner with some friends at this Brazilian place called Bossa Nova. It had an interesting atmosphere and delicious steak. I ordered a skirt steak pizza. It's basically steak on a pizza. Yep.

A Lonely Settler

One of my favorite board games to play...but one of the meanest games. The thing about the games I like to play is that people usually get hurt. Or turn against eachother. Or get mad.

A Dark Afternoon

It's been dark here in Los Angeles. The rain and storm have colored the skies obscure. But it's very nice staying inside, drinking some afternoon tea...

Homemade and Cheaper

Mr. Dino made some kalbi for a few friends and I. It was delicious. I felt ferocious. I don't think it was that nutritious. But later I danced around and it felt better.

No Fear

Thanks to Mr. Dino, I am equipped with soaked-sock-preventing footwear. Life is amazing when you have rainboots and what once were daunting oceans of rainwater become lowly puddles of nothing.

Lazy Cop Out

Today was hard. Especially at night. But I'm thankful I have a friend to listen to me complain about things I shouldn't be complaining about.

Eights Over Twos

I arrived in LA earlier this evening and it was nice that I didn't have too much school work to finish before classes tomorrow. A few of us played Pusoy Dos, a favorite card game of mine. Good memories.

Tropical Igoo and Poundcake Ice Cream

I'm thankful for the little time that I got to spend with these people... plus our crazy server, don't know why she didn't get in the picture with us. But yes, these people are part of the reason why I love being in Fresno. They teach me a lot about loving long distance.

A Different Stop

The beautiful blue glowing light at 10pm in the middle of nothing beckoned me. This Chevron has 24 pumps. It was amazing. But yes, this was one of our stops on the way to Fresno from LA.

Jump for Glory

Came home to Fresno for the weekend and introduced Mr. Dino to the craziness that is Wii Fit. This is a great pose.

The Price is Right

Apartment mates doing some late night work on a banner for a campus ministry's winter conference. The theme is "Sold Out for Jesus!". I like the different light bulbs in my kitchen and dining area.

Escape to the City to see the Cityscapes

The Los Angeles Downtown area skyline. Look at the beautiful brown haze.

twelve...

My apartment mate made these mini mandoos. Super cute. I ate it after taking the picture. :)

Eleven

This is Mr. Dino. He makes me happy. And sometimes sad. But most of the time, he makes me happy. Today we spent the day studying, eating, playing guitar, solving a rubik's cube, and eating ice cream.


This is a bonus picture at the request of the Dino himself. He says, "Check out my ugly face." I say, "Notice the dinosaur claws."

Day Ten

Protesters outside on Wilshire and Veteran.

Apparently 11 Christians in Egypt died due to radical Muslims. Let's pray for each other.

(Day) Nine People with a Coupon

Friends at "2 Die For" sushi restaurant after watching a movie at the Woodland Hills AMC. Fun times, and good food (for cheap). Can't go wrong.

Day Eight

Thank you for visiting. It makes me happy to see you happy.

(Day) Seven People

I was very tired, but they were very entertaining.

Six

My favorite photography subject is people. I love taking pictures of people, especially candidly...I like capturing people's real and raw emotions.

This is my lovely roommate. I met her only a couple years ago but she's changed my life fersure. I love her and I love the way she loves me. I've never quite had a friendship quite like this and it inspires me to become a better friend. Thank You, Jesus, for such an opportunity to learn to love.

A Long Day Five

This is where I work. It is currently under renovation so the inside noise level is higher than it should be for a library.

Work was super slow today compared to yesterday. Only three people came to the window, and no phone calls. But the morning must've been busy because there were many receipts for me to account for at closing. I'm very thankful that I have a computer and internet access while I am at work.

I played Settlers.

Twice.

Four

This girl's birthday. All smiles.

Yeah the camera was too close cause too much flash. That's what you get with a simple point and shoot.

Please Don't Let This Day End

Because that means I'd have to wake up for a 830am class.

Day 2

A receipt calendar from noquiet. A Christmas gift from my apartment mate.

Another year.

Welcome to 2010

So this year is another year where I will attempt to take at least one photo a day. Who's with me?!!



Gathering of Magic nerds at a friend's apartment. Don't worry--I don't play. Just everyone around me does...

I'm in LA now after spending three weeks in Fresno. I miss it already. But I resolve to live where I am, not looking back to where I want to be and not letting my drifter ways get the best of me. So when I'm in Fresno, then I'm in Fresno. When I'm in LA, then I'm in LA.
