Allowing me being me...

I'm really grateful to find someone that accepts everything about me... whether it’d be the good, bad, or ugly. I think it's really important to have someone to be there when you're most vulnerable - the time when your true self shows. Like I have nothing to hide.

I can trust him completely. Even the times when I’m annoyed, pissed or sad, I can express myself freely and knowing he will be there to comfort me or to give me advise or simply listen to me rant.

I’m not saying I’m fake around others where I have to put up another front. It’s just I don’t show everything about myself. They know only the faces that I show them.

Sometimes, I feel like I shouldn’t give off a negative vibe because it will affect everyone’s mood – don’t want to be a party pooper! When I'm with him, I can do anything without thinking. We could be inside the same room and doing our own things, without talking. I think we're telepathic and know what each other is thinking, hahah.

And because of this, I get this sense of security from him.

I need not him to be super smart, super rich, or super handsome compared to everyone else. Because in my eyes, he is already so perfect. Even the times when he annoys me, but now I think about it.. it's kinda funnies! I love how we joke around and laugh at each other like 3 years olds.

What makes him different from everyone else is that deep down somewhere, I know that he's thinking of me every second. I love how he's so in love with me and how I'm in love with him. Just thinking about him makes me smile.

He remembers the things I say and what I like. He tries to make me happy even though he's a lazy butt! He's the most considerate guy I know. He always put everyone else before himself... though I'm jealous of those people sometimes!

Thank you boo! Happy monthiversary J

Analyzing people

I don't know if I got better at analyzing people and their reactions now. The differences between fake and friendly or just plain creepy? There's always two sides of the story and I can't bring myself to a conclusion.

Watami Sushi & Sake Bar

I've been to Waterloo's Watami 3 times. My first experience was great. The eel on fried rice with terriyaki sauce was the perfect match. I think they changed the owner or chef so the taste isn't as good as before. Also, the amount of food is ridiculously small. Although they have everything that a bento has, the portions of each dish is a spoonful size. I like Watami's bento better than the one at Mirage @ University Plaza. Their dinner prices are overrated. If I'm going back there again, I would only go for lunch specials. Unless they serve bigger portions again, I don't think I'll be heading back anytime soon

Chicken Terriyaki Bento

Red Lobster

This is my first time going to Red Lobster! I was quite excited, despite some of the negative reviews out there. My friends and I came here because of the $18 four course meal promotion. The pictures of the food on their website looks absolutely delicious! We went to the Red Lobster location in Kitchener.

New England Clam Chowder

We get to choose soup of the day (bacon potato soup) or new england clam chowder. Well, I chose the clam chowder mainly because of the clams (frugal me). One of my friends opted for the bacon potato soup which I thought tasted better than mine.

Caesar Salad

Unlimited Cheddar Bay Biscuits

I always wanted to try their famous biscuits that everyone's raving about. I was kind of disappointed, it tasted quite normal to me. I probably got too hyped up with the high expectations. By the end of this 3rd course, I was quite full already.

Garlic-Herb Shrimp and Chicken

My friend ordered the shrimp and chicken option. I tried her shrimp and I thought the shrimps I ordered had a fuller taste.

Grilled Honey BBQ-Shrimp Skewers

I ordered their NEW BBQ-Shrimp skewers. I was afraid that I wouldn't be full since the picture showed only a few shrimp on each skewers. Surprisingly, I had to take a small break to finish the entire meal. The shrimp skewers tasted great, I love the sweetness in the sauce. For side dish, I opted for mashed potatoes. I wished that they had twice baked potato with bacon bits on their menu.Mashed potatoes were alright, weren't too bland or salty. The onion rings were overly greasy that I only ate half a ring.

Overall, it was a great experience. The waitress was nice and offered prompt service. The 4 course meal for $18 is definitely a steal. If I'm coming back again, I would like to try their coconut jumbo shrimps.

Moxie's Dinner

What a cutepie!!

Can you see what's wrong with this picture? Lol, funnies :)

why you so handsome?!

I think Raymond is crazy. Now every time he has semi-formal events, he wears this outfit I bought for him for Christmas =_=!

Chicken Oscar

For our Christmas high school girl's gathering, we decided to host it at Moxie's Classic Bar and Grill located at Scarborough Town Centre. I think we chose it because of the location. I haven't been to Moxie's for half a year, but  experience last tinme was alright. I thought the food wasn't worth the price though.

Our entire group (I think 16 ppl in total) waited for an hr or maybe even longer before seating even though we made reservations. We got compensated with 2 bowls of nachos appetizers.. Dinner was fun, but the food was wayyyy too salty. Everyone had at least 2 cups of water. The chicken was over grilled and dry. Everything on the plate was blasted with salt except for bok choy. I think with $25-30 meal, I can eat AYCE japanese food or add a few more dollars and I can go to Lobster Trap! I don't think I'll be heading back to Moxie's anytime soon.

I likes my outfits :3

Eaton Centre & Chatime Bubble Tea

Wow, I look like a friggen tourist that never stepped foot in Toronto =_=

Pretty Swarovski Tree

Yummy Ferro Rocher Tree

I think the purpose of this trip was I really wanted to shop and visit the famous Chatime Bubble Tea! I love their bubble tea so much! It tastes freshly brewed and not artificial at all like many bubble tea at Pmall. My boyfriend and I ordered their famous roasted milk tea large with grass jelly and red bean milk tea. I liked the red bean milk tea much more because it tasted more flavourful. I went back to Chatime BBT again few days later and ordered red bean milk tea with grass jelly - THE BEST COMBO EVER.

Love it!!! Too bad they don't have a store at where I study, University of Waterloo :(

How to stop uncontrollable cravings

Lately, I've been craving for BK a lot. Their King's Deals are too appealing, especially when they are only 5 minutes away!! I've gained so much weight this month - it's kinda scaring me. I should probably stop looking at so much delicious food pictures and videos at night, haha.

I was reading this article and it suggested that we need to learn the difference between emotional and physical hunger. 

As well, eating small frequent meals helped me in the past to overcome this issue. But right now, I'm in relaspe =_=.

Drink plenty of water was also suggested by the article. I do drink a lot of water.. MAYBE too much Lol (8 bottles a day? I pee like crazy tho)

Definitely cut down on the carbs and add more fiber rich veggies to your meal! Well.. I love my meals with rice or noodles.. so this was kinda hard for me :(


Researchers stated that chewing slowly allows the brain to process the signal that your stomach is full.

I hope I can remember these notes when I chow down my meal D:
