I found a sturdy pencil box for my sketching pencils. <3 Nature!

I picked up drawing/sketching again because I got inspired from some talented friends. I'm a newb but once I feel more confident maybe I'll post some up (:

This is a ridiculous picture.

faaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiilllllllllllllllllllll.

it's ok I took pictures, i just have to upload them! (:

The Hong Kong Student Society at UCLA has a night market event that mimics the street vendors at night in Hong Kong. Unfortunately I had work, but fortunately I have awesome friends that snuck in food for me!

Monday nights a few of us are temporarily homeless due to the multiple Bible Studies and fellowship meetings our apartment mates host at our respective apartments. We ended up eating and studying at Novel Cafe in Westwood until we could return to have our own meeting of the sort.

I don't know if I ever shared what my room looks like. Well this is a small part of it. It's our quaint television that does not have cable (because we don't want to pay 80 dollars for TV!). But we do have a DVD player and a VGA cable! (:

Every year UCLA holds the Los Angeles Festival of Books. It was so crowded on campus with loads of babies and puppies!

I made use of the hugemongous bag of frozen berries and made a cobbler. The recipe is from Williams-Sonoma so you know it's delicious! Top it off with vanilla ice cream and it's over (:

These friends have been visiting me often at work. It makes time go by faster (:

P.s. The reason why it's so blurry/foggy is because they are behind a bullet-proof (supposedly) glass that separates the cashier window and the public.

There's this little boy that constantly wanders in to our room to play on the keyboard while we're studying. And he's supposed to be studying too.

My apartmentmate brought home some Tiramisu from a Chinese bakery in Irvine, California. How nice of her to remember (one of) my favorite dessert(s)!

I made some mini pies but I did not add enough sugar so they did not taste as well as I'd like. That's what happens when I try to be healthy! :( But the crust tastes awesome (:

Mr. Dino and I visited a friend in San Luis Obispo and he took us to a old school deli. It was very cute and small but very crowded. I think we were the only Asians there. Hm.

We are so tired. But I thought this was a cool shot because it's from a top view. Pretty simple but I like simple...

I was telling my friends how Volcano Tea should just give me some executive members card because I give them so much money. It's a horrible horrible addiction really. But it's so delicious.

But that doesn't stop me from all the video games. Bad... so very bad...

This is for the little boy that wanted to be in the Photo of the Day. Congratulations!

I like being able to sit at home some times... no agenda, no to do lists. (:

Can you find the little friend?

This was a random lunch I made for Mr. Dino and I. It's Milkis drinks with a meatball bake from costco and leek dumplings. I used aluminum foil to keep the drinks cool and the bake warm. YAY!

Mr. Dino found New York strips on sale so we had ourselves a nice steak dinner for under 14 bucks (:

 The 405 freeway seems to always have traffic. It's bad news bears.
