jealous

Sat, 07 Jun 2008 12:05:28 GMT

will is taking a prayer retreat at st. andrew's abbey next week for four days. i'm so jealous! but i'm happy he gets to experience one of my favorite places on earth.

p.s. this book is a graphic novel - a comic. you should read it.

purple trees

Wed, 04 Jun 2008 10:05:04 GMT

it feels like fall in L.A., doesn't it? the weather is warm with a hint of coolness. not only that, i see purple trees all around the city. i have come to love those jacaranda trees. it's like leaves changing colors in the fall, except rather than oranges, reds and yellows, we get the purple version in the summer.

puffy eyes

i woke up this morning with puffy eyes. it's cuz i watched "p.s. i love you" yesterday and bawled my eyes out. it's a good one.

cutest kid

will and i got to hang out with our friend blas last weekend. he's half korean, obsessed with thomas the train, and too much fun. i think i finally made it into his memory bank because when i walked in the door last week he ran to me shouting "auntie bo!". total highlight of the week.

what a cutie pie!

beautiful day in LA

Fri, 23 May 2008 02:17:43 GMT

i absolutely loved the weather today. it went from cloudy to pouring to sunny to lightning and thunder to sun shining through the clouds to sprinkling.

i just love the rain lately.

thank you god for rain.

any suggestions?

will wants me to set up a food blog for him since i'm the tech saavy one of the two of us. he wants to review restaurants on it. there are so many out there, and i can't think of anything original. any ideas for names? both name of the blog and name of the writer?

p.s. will discovered this planet earth series at mar and bry's xmas party and wouldn't stop talking about it. so i got it for him for xmas, thinking this is such a nerdy gift. but dude, it rocks!

mom's day & florida

Sat, 17 May 2008 12:47:27 GMT

will and i celebrated mother's day with my mom two weeks ago because i was going to be out of town on mother's day weekend. we took her to the walt disney hall for an LA Phil concert. it rocked. i miss classical music, especially playing the piano. after that weekend i tried to bust out my old music and play it.

here is me and the mom during intermission, in the pretty patio they have outside. we both look kinda sleepy (classical music always has that effect on me):

then we took her out to one of our fav. restaurants in pasadena, shaab. here's will and mom waiting for the food. we were pretty hungry. isn't my mom so cute?

on m's day weekend, i went to visit my friend and old roommate allison at her home in florida. we were too lazy and didn't take any pics of us together, but i did take this one. she set out breakfast for me on sunday morning. i slept in while she went to church. when i came downstairs i found strawberries, apricots, organic granola and my favorite greek yogurt laid out. with 5 different types of loose leaf green tea and hot water on the stove. i felt the love through her southern hospitality.

idol junkie

Sat, 17 May 2008 12:28:33 GMT

i've been addicted to 2 things lately: settlers of catan, and american idol.

but i'm going to focus just on idol in this entry. i can't decide who i want to win. i like both davids. they are so different...how can you really pick one? i think the last show is going to break my heart, no matter who wins.

i kind of want david cook to win so that archie doesn't get tainted by the commercialization of his young self. archie should just go back to his normal life and go to college.

i even had a dream about idol last night.

p.s. i love leona lewis's "bleeding love".

my mom

yesterday i got flowers delivered to me at work: 18 beautiful red roses. today i sold 6 roses to my coworker who offered $20 for them. i gave the remaining dozen to my mom for valentine's.

hehe.
