No Place I'd Rather Be

I cannot repress my excitement and appreciation for having the chance to return to my gloomy Seattle for a short visit. It is the only city I can commute without a GPS and where I call my second home. I have already got so used to the rain that it does not bother me. And all I can think of while walking down the streets are the wonderful memories from the past five years.

Coming back again as a tourist, I have decided to make up for the neglected popular sights that people travel from all over the world to see but which I have missed out. I used to think they were boring, but now it only makes me more fascinated by the city.  

Don't be afraid to change. You may lose something good but you may gain something better.

Saturday

Took five minutes to shoot these before heading into town and spend a day with friends. We have currently been fascinated by "Room Escape". It is a reality game where players will be assigned roles, and should solve question and accomplish missions in order to escape the room in one hour time. So far, we have all got out within the time limit. It isn't very physically demanding, but comfy is always helpful.  

Enjoy the weekends! 

I really need a day between Saturday and Sunday.

Getting Ready for the Cold

OPI for Sephora: Opening Nights

"Navy blue is a fun shade for this season- it's unpredictable and flattering on all skin tones," says manicurist Madeline Poole. 

Lirikos Marine UV Water Cushion

I want to be nicer to my skin with my daily makeup and has always used mineral foundation as I feel it is not as heavy as regular foundation and is "healthier". Almost running out of my Laura Mercier, I decided to join the Cushion BB trend. It is basically BB cream in a cushion form instead of a tube. We know BB cream was introduced first as a skin protection before it became widely popular as makeup in Korean and Japan. So continuing my objective, there is no better replacement.

All-in-one, and with SPF 50+, I can skip many steps in the morning. Coverage is light to medium and I need some concealer to go with it. I really love the texture, and how moisturizing it is on the skin. It has a dewy but balanced finish, and stays on fairly well.

It is a Chinese superstitious tradition to wear something red all year during your zodiac year. True or not, I don't mind wearing this delicate red string with a gold bead at all. 

Hello 2015

Unknown Sweater/ Unknown Jacket/ Levi's Demi Curve Skinny/Jeffrey Campbell Boots

Welcome 2015! Happy New Year! First blog-post this year.

I know I have not been the most dedicated blogger so far, and not updating as frequently as I would hope to. Starting to get on the late trend: training everyone around me to take pictures, and becoming less shy shooting outdoors despite people walking by and looking at me funny.

I always feel less inspired during very cold winters, especially when it is that cold that an extra legging is required underneath my pants. It is also likely to look puffier with thick jackets. Please give me snow……or spring.

Eat Healthy, Sleep Well, Breathe Deeply, Enjoy Life.
