Planetarium Adventure!

Over the weekend we ventured to the Vancouver Space Centre, which turned out to be a rather outdated space museum! Despite all that, we visited a star show at the planetarium and it was awesome! It was like star gazing indoors, very cool! I learned many constellations!


I am an astronaut!





After that we headed to Aberdeen Centre for some dinner, I was craving some mango salad from Tropika Malaysian and Thai Cuisine! So there we went. Mango salad was a tad too spicy, but the Roti was amazing! After we were done eating and about to pay, it came to our attention that the restaurant did not accept VISA, so I gave them a debit card, they said, we only take Mastercard, American Express, and Diner Card... I Was like wtf. So made an awkward exit and got some cash from the ATM. haha. On the way to the parking lot, we stopped at the dried fruit shop, and picked up some dried mango, dried plum, and dried peaches! Dried things are delicious!


There is me waiting patiently for my mango salad, which we forgot to take a picture of!

The meaning of traveling

Sure, we all like to travel. Getting to know a different culture, experiencing the hospitality of foreign land, and taking 10 million photos!

For many, traveling is a rare commodity, as it require a load of cash and free time. Those who may be so fortunate to travel have their own reasons. Some like to see the world in a different perspective, because it helps them appreciate and realize that life is truly beautiful. Some travel because they are in search of a place to call home. Many travel to find the missing pieces. For others, traveling is running away from home.

As for me, I travel with the one I love, because I know no matter where I go, he will be there by my side. In the end, it's not about where you go, it's about who you end up with.

Science world!

So what do people do when a picnic at the beach gets canceled? Go to science world! Sunday started off at Richmond's Garden City Road dim sum! With a realization that mango pudding needs to marinate in the cream for at least 20 minutes before ingesting! It makes it so velvety and yum! Off we go to Science World! Puzzle solving and science learning! There were many children and families also enjoying the educational adventure!


Here is me fitting inside a box and feeling extremely uncomfortable and claustrophobic.

Note to self: Need a better point and shoot camera!

White rock day!

This Saturday we went to white rock for brunch at Uli restaurant . I had Belgian waffles, and hunnie had the classic benny! We sat outside and enjoyed the sunshine! Then we took a brief walk along the sea shore and watch amateur wedding photographers take photos! Then I realize, wow, living in Vancouver is awesome!


aww it's my lovely fool pointy at the menu!

P.S. I ran into Joey Schweers at the beach today, then again at home depot! Small world? YES!

weekend wednesday

So I had a day off today, but it still consisted of work and whatnot! So in the afternoon I got bored and started using my camera again!





I look forward to stuff...perhaps my birthday in June!

awkward bridesmaid

So I had the privilege to be a bridesmaid for the first time! Knowing me, I am super awkward in these kind of formal settings. Just check out the expression on my face.



It was fun to be a bridesmaid! Get the chance to get all dressed up. Runaway bride is on tv and it is very funny. HAHAHA. It is Julia Roberts weekend marathon! Just saw my best friend's wedding. aww and now she's trying on the $1000 dress! Oh Richard Gere!

Here's a few more pictures from the wedding! Here's my favourite photo! Because I look natural and not awkward. AHAHA Food. yum.

Routines

Sometime it feels like we get stuck in a routine life, and we're not happy with it, but we all know that people are more content with routine. If we are so content with routine, then why does it always feel like something is missing? Why do you get tired of the same thing, and seek for some change, something fresh? I'm getting that feeling again where I want to go hide from the world before I can get out of my rut. I believe the word rut derived from routine...

Perhaps work and mundane stuff has taken over my life. I need to reclaim a social life and reactivate my creativity. I feel dead when I am not producing. Terrible terrible feelings inside, even the exercising is not helping.

Ugh, I feel stuck...need to do something new.

Shoe list

I've been meaning to buy new shoes for a while now...The last pair I bought was in March, a pair of comfy work shoes! Now I am craving for 2-3 pairs more. It sounds terrible, but I need to have them. On the shoe list are:

Reebok Reetone

Basic black wedge

Gladiator sandals

Also need to buy some new bras, spring clothes.. I am such a victim of consumerism.
