I thought of posting something else this afternoon but the post was too lengthy. Tomorrow, perhaps? Continue reading “A Beautiful Ending” →
I love going to museums because first of all, I’m kind of a history lover and secondly, museums are quiet rich learning environments and I get to see something different every time I go. Continue reading “The Art Institute” →
It’s hard to believe I was in the Windy City just two Sundays ago. I can still remember that day as if it happened yesterday. I was wandering around Millennium Park searching for my group while feeling irritating and panicky. Continue reading “Two Sundays Ago…” →
One of the things we did most on the trip beside walking was eating. I am not complaining here. I am actually a foodie. I enjoyed every minute of it. It was like I’ve landed in food paradise. Continue reading “Food Paradise” →
This picture was taken during my first night in Chicago. Continue reading “Drawbridge” →
So yesterday, I took my first solo trip (first time without mom by my side) and I must say, it feels different. There is a degree of freedom I’ve never thought I’d feel. Continue reading “Salt Lake to Chicago” →
Something real peculiar caught my eyes a couple days ago as I was walking home from work. Continue reading “Something Peculiar” →
This is becoming my favorite photo of all time. I shall call it, “Descend into the Night”. Continue reading “Descend into the Night” →

So I had my second win of the week yesterday. Continue reading “Second Win” →
“Go to your happy place,” I hear people say that when someone’s frightened or nervous about an upcoming event. The anesthesiologist said that to me right before he put me under the gas a few years ago when I had my oral surgery. Continue reading “My Happy Place” →

I’m taking an exam today, so I’m keeping my posts short.

…And hopefully, I can go out and capture a picture of Autumn at the exact same spot soon.
Thank you for reading!

Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Change
Okay, plenty to do today, therefore, I’ll just post my final sets of changes and hopefully I can write something later. Enjoy. Continue reading “More Changes” →
This week’s photo challenge is making me feel more and more glad I never delete unused photos because these are pictures I can never get the right occasion to show them. Continue reading “More Seasonal Changes” →
According to the file, the above picture was taken on April 3, 2015 which makes the picture was taken during Spring. Now it is Autumn. Let’s see how it’s changed. Continue reading “Seasonal Changes” →
Hi, everyone and hello from the sunny and HOT Las Vegas.

I haven’t really been out lately, mostly just stuck in the basement. The weather hasn’t been cooperating. It’s either too hot or too cold or too windy or too rainy. It’s like it’s playing a big game. So no new pictures but good news, I’m heading to Las Vegas in two weeks, yay!
So plenty of opportunities there. I’m looking forward to gambling and earning 5 extra credit points for my auditing class for doing something fun (No, I’m not kidding about the 5 points). The instructor apparently thinks we’re too tight and need to loosen up.
It’s the first time I’m going to Vegas since I turned 21 three years ago.
Anyway, I know that’s not what you’re here for, so let’s get this show on the road.
I know some of you have seen this picture before. I debuted it way back in June. Like I said, no new pictures.
Stairs are connected to something, right?

Taking a break from my studying here, actually, I haven’t started today’s studying yet since mom insists calling me every few minutes. Our tenant unexpectedly moved out last night. He was supposed to move out at the end of the month but apparently, he didn’t want to stay another 15 days.
Anyway, this week’s photo challenge is not an easy one at all but I managed. Here are some creepy yet delightfully adorable pictures from my trip to Cabela’s at the end of last year.
P.S. Cabela’s is a store that sells outdoor equipment like camping and stuff.
What was I doing there? My cousin wanted a super warm winter coat because even without the snow, he still can’t stand the cold and mom wanted a gun, a long dangerous rifle, to keep in the house. Thank god she didn’t get one. Otherwise, I might be a dead girl.

Well, I think I basically accomplished everything that’s work last week. I completely finished with this month’s work yesterday. With that said, I believe I still have a lot of work at my other job. For the past two months, my boss’s been debating whether to change the point-of-sales system even though the system now does all it needs to (make change, take in money, etc) but the inventory tracking system is crap. I think the problem is not the problem, it’s my boss.
He uses a gajillion programs (excel, Quickbooks, who knows what else) to track the inventory and he never updates all of them at the same time. So some of them are really behind. I offered to update them for him but he seemed to think I have my hands full with Quickbooks alone. Hmm, interesting.
Anyway, back to point-of-sales, the part that drives me absolutely nuts is the part where my boss consults me with which machine to buy. Pfft, like I have a clue.
Another thing that drives me insane is that every time I go in, I’d ask him when the new machine is going to get here because I was under impression he had ordered a new point-of-sales system. I’ve been asking this question since the end of June and he answered, “Oh, maybe tomorrow.”
I replied, “Well, if it gets here, call me.”
The truth is, he never ordered the damn machine. Last Thursday night, 11:00 PM, I received a text from my boss. In the text, he said he was excited. He had found a brand new POS system. I’m like, great, why are you telling me?
In the next text, he told me I should go in the shop the next day to check it out. So I went. From an online point-of-view, it looked pretty sophisticated. I told him to just go for it but he has doubts. Not my fault. So hopefully he’ll get the system and be done with this whole debate once and for all.
So I got all I have to get done this week work-wise. Writing-wise, I barely got anything done. I’ve decided to begin anew with my novella again since the high-school scene isn’t really working and it won’t work unless I experience high school myself because being in 3 different high school isn’t anyone’s experience of a high school experience.
Before I go, I want to show some more Beneath your feet pictures. This time, it’s really Beneath Your Feet.
Daily Prompt – Obstacle Course
Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge – Beneath Your Feet
There’s not much to look at out the window today. The sky has decided to be gloomy. It looks like it’s going to rain but when? I have absolutely no idea.
There are also not much to look at beneath my feet either. Most times, it’s just concrete or asphalt. The prettiest ground I’ve seen around here is the Gateway Mall in Downtown Salt Lake but I haven’t been there for about two years and the last time, I didn’t bring my camera with me. Oh well.
Therefore I am going to just share some pictures from my walk yesterday.
Before I left, I went into the backyard to see how the garden is doing. The last time I checked was a few weeks ago. Anyway, I’ve been so busy taking pictures of the garden that I have completely forgotten the mint bushes in the corner. The smell was so pungent as I leaned in for a picture not to mention there are bees everywhere. Well, they don’t call it “The Beehive State” for nothing.
This is a watermelon flower. Mom’s been nagging me to take a picture and send it to my aunt in China.
It is hard to believe that this pretty little flower will very soon become a watermelon. I took this yesterday morning and last night, when mom went out to water the plants, she shrieked, “so many watermelon flowers! We’re going to have so many melon this year!” I was genuinely amazed since I only spotted this single flower just hours earlier.
Of course, my photo walk have to include a picture of the sky. I thought this cloud looked like a funnel.
I walked two laps (1 mile) and half of the third lap before I exited the park through the alley next to my aunt’s house and took another route home. It is the long route, about half mile out of the way but it was well worth it.
This picture has been altered just a tiny bit because the truck’s license plate was showing too clearly but not by much. I just picked the effect that blurred the background just a little.
Overall, I think I made the right choice to take the long route. I think I will take this route again and take more pictures next time.
