In Good Company

Happy MLK Day! I hope everyone enjoyed their 3 day break from work (if applicable!!) and school in remembrance of a historical leader. I took advantage of this weekend to spend time with some of my favorite people! I started the weekend with my niece Maya. Sometimes I make her take silly pictures with me in public. I'm pretty sure she is uncomfortable with it, but agrees to do it anyway! At least she can say she has a fun auntie? :) 

The next day I went shopping with my line sisters Christiana and Cecillia. Needless to say, we always have a great time when we get together.

More crazy hair accessories. 

 A great weekend is never complete without a little sleep bombing. My friend Kimmy (check out her great photography here) took this hilarious picture while we were out on our lunch date.

I love boba...<3

By the way, Joshua is finally back! I'll finally be able to be wrapped in his arms in a couple days! yay!

Friday Favorites // Back at Home

I haven't posted any Friday Favorites in a while. But today was all about home life and the things I love about it. I love doing some work on my new desk and turning around to see my kitty sprawled out on my messy bed. I gave my parents a break today and cooked my family an Asian dinner. The recipe I used for it found here. My cousin and I caught up over some cappuccino at my favorite gelato shop, Pacuigo. There's just something about a cup of coffee that is so cosmopolitan. Although I lived here nearly my entire life, I never got to appreciate what this city has to offer. I love that there's always something new to discover, so I've been doing just that. I've explored my city in the daytime, but today I've experienced the nightlife I never knew it had. Now that I have been giving this place another chance, I'm finally beginning to embrace the home I once wished to never come back to.

We even got the chance to sleep bomb a guy while walking through the bar area. 

Sleep Bombing Occurs in India Too

Sleeping Bombers

So I've been missing Joshua :( He's been out of the country for a few days (in Dubai now and India later). So I thought I'd share what we've been up to lately... Sleep bombing! It's when we would take pictures with our beloved sleeping friends... and occasionally strangers apparently. It all started on our plane ride out to California in October when we saw that our neighbor was sleeping. We wanted to take as many pictures as we could of our trip and I guess for whatever reason, we wanted to document that moment. We were laughing so hard we thought we'd wake him up. Ever since then, we continued with this silly game. 

... and we sleep bomb cats too.

I love my man! He so handsome :3
I am smitten...
