It's Totally Fall

i've been trying to take more pictures.. eventually i'll make a fb album lol

in front of m's house... post-gorgeousness. spooky.
aberdeen (asian mall)
hot pot w/ b @ hot pot one in aberdeen centre, richmond 'cause i was craving asian food after almost a month without.
pretty pricey, but i am so going back there.
 
they come around with a dozen tubs of different sauces on a trolley and you tell them which combo you want and they mix it for you!
unlimited amount. now that is what i call service.
raking leaves.. the next day, so many more leaves fell, it looked like I did nothing!! like my mounds? lol
ramen with mommy (btw, to save money, the frozen ramen from t and t are just as good as this!! i bought 4 pkgs last time. 
sounds funny coming from me, but make sure you follow the correct water amount!)
kimbap + singing downtown
i love this restaurant. heaven on a table.. that we finished. love my chamchi kimbap, odeng, albap, soondae, and ddukbokki sauce!
happy pocky day!

Filling

Gah.. too many celebrity endorsements on TV.
Sarah Richardson for Green ____ spray product
Stacey London for Woolite detergent (faded blacks are a huge faux pas)
and.. that lady who cooks French food on the Food Network for Home Hardware...
and I watched all of these in a row. Ihhh.

Watching Look-A-Like - transforming a girl into Megan Fox. It's easy to be skeptical that this show would be a waste of time, but I'm always pleasantly surprised at the end result. I caught the end of the Joe Jonas transformation last time I watched.. and saw a Katherine Heigl

Now I'm watching Nigella Express. She's making a chocolate mousse. Didn't know it was so easy.. and fatty. I'm suddenly inspired to make it using dark dark dark choco... with dark choco shavings on top.
I'm salivating.. she also made a scallop and chorizo something that looks delicious to be served on top of pasta. What's with me and pasta??? I guess it was Sweden.
Was just reminded to try this yummy mussel dish Pris sent me!! Since I have lots of time now, I will be cooking quite a bit in the kitchen.

Anyway, popping over to M's for a thai dinner and then I have badminton after.

Remembrance Day tomorrow. I'll be practicing driving and parking with my dad and then I have dinner and singing at night!

Christmas is in the air!!!!!!!!

A Good Fit

I love this heavy, handmade bowl I lugged back from Crete (back to Athens then to Copenhagen, Stockholm, and Amsterdam) for my family's living room. It fits the colour palette really well :)

Nice to know Google Maps have some humour..

1. Go to Google maps.
2. Go to "Get Directions."
3. Type Japan as the start location.
4. Type China as the end location.
5. Go to direction#43.
6. Laugh, and repost.

Lust

omg omg omg i love these earrings!!!!!!


I don't know which colour I want most... I love the champagne one 'cause it is a bit of a softer look than the onyx and is strangely beautiful.  The emerald is super pretty but it looks transparent so it might look dirty in person - better on a blonde.  The berry is different - i don't have any berry-coloured earrings.. and as much as I like looking at the rose one, I don't think it would look that good on me.

On a diff topic, I just wanted to let you know that YSL lipsticks are the most amazing lipsticks I have ever tried. Long lasting and the colour is brilliant. I almost bought a bright fuschia one in Sweden but decided not to and couldn't find the same shade in Amsterdam. Next international flight...

H&M x Lanvin

This vid is probably going crazy viral right now. I like it.
 
I like these 2 dresses. They go for 180USD each.
Anyhow, I am back home from a 3.5 week vaca to Greece and Sweden. Really interesting. Gained lots of new perspectives, which, next to trying different food, soaking up the culture, shopping their fashion and taking pictures, is my reason for travel. Feel refreshed
Next Europe trip, I will be hitting up Prague and/or Istanbul (to ride a hot air balloon), Milan, and Tuscany/Turin. Want to go back to Paris but I think that will have to wait... oh yea - and this is all after my Asia trip to Seoul, Tokyo, Osaka, Hokkaido, Beijing, and Shanghai (possibly HK). After? Sri Lanka, India, and another spot around that general area... Dubai? mm maybe Mauritius, too. In the plane's magazine, I read about a road trip from Amsterdam to South Africa and that sounds absolutely crazy. Not exactly something you can plan for... wonder how you get gas in the middle of nowhere. If I did that, it would be my most insane adventure for sure.
