The Time Traveler’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger This book has been on my to-be-read list for a long long time, since I’ve watched the movie in 2009. I loved the story then and love it even more after reading the book. Even though I already knew the plot, I still had tears while […]

– It is still unusually warm in Southern California, it’s supposed to be 90 degrees this weekend. I hope our Halloween candies don’t melt. Because of the weather, we have been going to pumpkin patches in our sandals, shorts and linen shirts. At least we have stopped using the A/C at night and […]
I didn’t have a good day yesterday. It started out really well, I woke up when it was cold and dark at 6am. I was productive and studied. Then as the hours progress, my mood just went south and I was cranky. It was a mix of a lot of things. The material I was […]

Wow, it’s already Nov 11, can’t believe it. The first week of every month is always a blur for me, it’s the busiest time at work every month, so the whole week just passes by really quickly. So now it’s the second week and I’m coming up for fresh air and have some time […]
Here are some of my healthy eats lately. Obviously I am just showing my healthiest meals here for ideas. I also still eat Mexican food and fried fish tacos, pizza and other not so healthy foods—but I try to limit that to weekends. My breakfast staple is always a bowl of oatmeal or some kind […]
