i work hard for the money

these are the little things that make a boring day at the office
10x more interesting and memorable...
.
.
.

breakfast buffets during early morning meetings
the iron chef in me decided to combine everything
and make a yogurt parfait.


popular culture readings during lunch time
with a white mocha americano misto
(i can't thank you enough britt for introducing
me to epic!life in a cup)
& a complimentary tall drink coupon!


paper!spock boldly going where no paper!spock
has gone before.

of Root Beer Float Cramps and Never Ending Staircases...

WARNING. MAJOR PICSPAM!!!
starting now
.
.
.

What a great way to make a rainy day 10x better.
Of course improving a rainy day combined with a midterms starts off with dinner @ Mr. Greenjeans.

Check out the scenery and the greens!

And for dinner we have chicken tenders with buffalo chips.... nom nom nom!


&the highlight of the evening,
DESSERT!

Root Beer Float

but wait... WTF JUST HAPPENED?
Apparently the minute i dug my spoon into the float, some absurd chemical reaction
took place which cause both mine and britt's floats to become
pseudo-volcanic eruptions of foam
Interesting.


Wednesdays = Free AGO Days
Here are some highlights of the visit!
.
.
.

epic tepee


much like Harry Potter
one can never be too trusting towards staircases for
these are the stairs that never end, they just go on and on my friend
me and britt started running up not knowing how it was
and we just kept on running
forever just because...


melodramatic hallway


how has loss affected your life?
The paper reads
"i lost my house keys, so i turned around and found a new house.
now, sometimes i wonder about the dog i left inside,
and if he's learned to feed himself yet."


and of course every good day has to come to an end.
&since it's my life, the endings are usually similar
to shakesperean tragedy.

In this case, the death of my beloved flats.
They have served me well these last 5 years
.

eww for blisters.

yarff yarff yarfff

i'm caffeine induced... completely exhausted... bored out of my mind... and blogcrastinating.
The interesting posts shall be up shortly. Complete with pictures!!!

Revamping the background music

What do you think of the new layout???

Very helvetica + black + red, just the way i like it!!!

It's suppose to match this...

A self-promoting tote bag with my blog link.
Yup, talk about advertising *thumbs up*

Today was a great "midterm in the morning, a bit of studying for another midterm, chillaxing in downtown with friends under the blistering sun" day. Thankfully I didn't burn so much. Sadly my tongue did because I decided to go with 10 chillies for my lunch/dinner. (why? i have no idea why...)

Still having trouble deciding what to do for my twentieth :( and I only have a week left now to make up my mind.

What does one do when they've reached 2 decades of life?

War of Asian Music vs. English Music pt.4

just dicovered this one recently. Oh shinee...


Corbin Bleu vs. SHINee


Corbin Bleu - Deal With It




SHINee - Juliette


Yay! korean pop and shakespearean references!! but corbin bleu does get some points for having melissa reyes in his video.

War of Asian Music vs. English Music pt.3

These two aren't exactly straight similar like the past two comparisons, but if you've heard both songs, you probably found yourself wondering if you were listening to one or the other.

Ne-Yo vs. Super Junior

NeYo - Closer




Super Junior - Why I Like You

War of Asian Music vs. English Music pt.2

Martin Hedegaards vs. SHINee

Martin Hedegaards - Show The World



SHINee - Love Like Oxygen


i actually find SHINee's lyrics make more sense... LOL
yet again, deep sensual lyrics ftw!

The War of Asian Music vs. English Music

this is what companies purchasing sound tracks does to your iPod... it confuses you.
but it's still damn interesting to listen to both songs.
here are a couple of examples pertaining to this situation

Sarah Connor vs. Dong Bang Shin Ki

Sarah Connor - Under My Skin



Dong Bang Shin Ki - Mirotic


so which one do you prefer?
me, i'm a sucker for half-naked asian boys.... oh well
plus the lyrics kill me. always one for the artistry and the aesthetics.
(realize that there is no plagiarism among the differing artists, or else you'd hear it on the news. Realize they aren't affiliated with small, unknown, self-produced labels. Music companies purchase tracks and add lyrics to it. so no one is at fault. except maybe us for being drawn in to their commercialism, but hey that's life!)

I was born in the city, I'll be mourned by the city...

I really do love downtown, 

especially the business core. 

Stoic glass figures rising to the heavens, 

overlooking the ant-like colonies of business men 

from beneath....

Sometimes though, 

I feel so insignificant in a sea of suits, 

surrounded by never-ending 

glass walls.

Once you are a part of it, is there a way out?

Hopefully I can be able to post about a never-ending horizon. I'm craving palm trees, water, and sunrises... uber badly :(

This blog is inspiring me to drop out of school >____<. I love all the letterpress work and it's really making me want to jump straight into the industry and world of lovely paper types, pantone inks, etc instead of going through with the 2 years I have left.
But sadly, I will go through the 2 years... Wait for me!!
