foodtrip

I went out yesterday with Louise and Gracia we decided we're going to ktown
We ordered dukbukki, squid bokkeum, and bibimbap
Then we went for a stroll
We went to a bookstore and i bought 3 books bcos they were only a $1 each pretty cheap right?
I bought an original milk black tea to take home
We stopover at a bakery and i bought walnut cakes and red bean korean pancake
They were so good and delicious
We also went to an artist store where they sell painting stuff and some school supplies
I saw a legit Japanese restaurant bar where customers sat on the floor while eating
I would like to go there and try
The place looks expensive but i think it would worth the money
I hope i could go there with my friends
Everyone is going to be busy soon
Anyway i had fun and it was nice to eat out
Now i am craving for dukbukki again when i just ate yesterday
If only i know how to cook a legit one
Thank you for reading `

birthday celebration prep

I'll be turning 20 real soon
For brunch, Eunice, Krystel, Kathleen, & i had scrambled eggs, sausage, toasted bread, and improvised kimchi chigae (a Korean dish)
After they went home i did a general cleaning of my place
Then Louise and i went to stc 
I bought my first ever shirt from Aritzia which was a cropped top with NYC printed on it
It was on sale for $9.99 and the original price was $25
I literally stood in front of it debating if i should buy it
I ended up buying it bcos i would probably regret if i didn't
Maybe i'll wear it when i go to New York ~~~
I also bought a basic black tank top from American eagle also for $9.99
Then Eunice had to meet up with us bcos i forgot to get my metropass from her
We went to mcdonalds to wait for Gio bcos he was working
We all went grocery shopping together to buy all the foods and things we need for the Sunday bbq party i'm having for my birthday
It's been a long time since i host a birthday party (3 years to be exact)
We bought a lot i spent also a lot
I used my credit card for the first time
Then we went home to my place and they helped marinate the meat and prepare everything for tomorrow so i'm all set
At 11 pm, we walked to send off each other and all it was nice
I got my phone lens which included a macro lens, a wide angle lens, and a fisheye lens
I bought it in ebay for $10 i believe
I received my polaroid case in blue also from ebay which costed for $7
The only thing i couldn't figure out how to use was the macro lens but i figured it all out now after watching a youtube video on how to use it and so the last picture was an example
It was my laptop's keyboard
When using the macro lens, you have to be really really close to capture the details 
It was a great day

first picnic

The place is a beauty to be honest
People should take really good care of that beach
We arrive in Bluffers park by 10 am to find a good spot (July 25th)
We were lucky bcos my stepdad wasn't working in the morning that was why he got to send us to the beach so we didn't have to work very far
My ootd v neck shirt paired with shorts and toms, just a simple get to go comfy outfit
All the pictures says it all
I grabbed the pictures from Louise bcos she uploaded 'em in facebook
We had tons of fun. We had lots of food
The pork belly was really great marinated and cooked by our good friend, Gio
He is really a true and nicest friend ever
You'll be a real lucky if you have someone like him as a friend
We had Korean lettuce wrap it was so good
We played cards, volleyball, in the water, chat, etc
Kathleen even got injured from playing volleyball, she needs to get an xray soon for that
We had change of plans so we decided to pack and clean up at 6 pm
We walked for 20 minutes going home
It was an uphill battle to tell you the truth (also literally) ~~~
It was a great day. It was memorable
I hope we keep making fun and memorable memories together until we can

today's whereabouts

After i went to Walmart, i went to pmall to meet up my friend, Berna
We decided we're going to buy the New Balance shoes (remember from my summer wishlist)
We went to the store but then it is so expensive that we ended up not buying a pair
It costs like $130 each bcos it wasn't on sale
The others shoes that are on sale are for $70 but i don't like 'em tho
So i said to myself i'll just buy it when i get my first salary with my first ever job
That's a promise i better keep
Instead we went around to look for screen protector for my dslr i bought one for $10
I tell you i had a hard time putting in on when i got home (im so not cut out for that)
Anyways i had a bento box of chicken bulgogi for late lunch and a strawberry green tea
The drink is refreshing tbh 
Don't you just wanna take home those snack foodies where i had my pictures taken (credits to my friend)
I wish i can buy them all but then i'll be broke
Oh what made this day exciting is that i bought my friend's polaroid camera
It's fujifilm instax mini 7s (frankly i don't know the differences of mini 7 and mini 8)
I won't tell the price but i got it for a good price (Thanks Berna!)
Of course i need to buy the film right so i bought the 20 pcs for $17
I got myself a phone strap for $5 bcos sometimes i need it when i just want to easily keep my phone close to me
Lastly i bought a bow/ribbon clip. It is big and the colour is between beige and pink
I decided i'm gonna use it on the wedding day to look very lady like ~~~
I hope it suits me just fine and with my dress too
I had fun today
Excuse my picture, i looked really sleepy 
Ciao `

late last night

Last night, after a major test
My friend and i decided to go to little "ktown" or korea town
Basically to eat of course what else right?
Korea is known for great foods just like other countries
We went to chatime
Remember i just had mine yesterday? At least it was free
Anyways then we had korean streetfood!
Omg they're so good
I ordered dukbokki, kimchi dumpling, and squid ball
After we ate and talk about just life and everything else (details not included)
We strolled on the other street
And viola we discovered a late night open korean grocery store
So obviously i was tempted
And end up buying food again ~~~
I've been craving for homemade kimchi for so long
Oh and those easy to made noodle snack that i dont need to cook
Lovely pepero in almond flavour
Who forgets the drink right?
Milkis in melon flavour and coffee flavoured drink too
BTW, my friend's name is Berna
She's cool and awesome like me of course
