Here are both Tara and me celebrating with Cherrie at her graduation party. Congrats to all W&M grads of 2010! I officially no longer know anyone at William and Mary... I feel old!

Saturday was a busy, yet fun-filled day! While running errands/shopping, I ran into April at the mall... we were both wearing nearly identical outfits that I just had to take a picture, haha! It was quite embarrassing! Great minds think alike ;)




Later that evening, we all headed out to celebrate the mixtape release of our friend Scott, or Scottie P (on the beat)! :) The night was a big success, and we're all so proud of him!!!
Check him out here!

By the way, I just looooooooooved my dress that night! :) Don't be surprised if you see it on another photo-a-day! Haha!

Thanks to Deb, we got to see Jamie Kennedy at the Funny Bone for free!
It was a really funny show!

Thursday night was taco night! And for dessert... fried ice cream! Natalie's recipe was simply A-MAZ-ING!!! I love getting together with these girls... we share stories and laugh like there's no tomorrow. :)

So I was looking back at old photos I had on my computer, and I thought that I would use this as my photo of the day! This was taken about four years ago along the Colonial Parkway in Williamsburg. It has to be one of my favorite photos of me :)

I've been organizing diabetes and nutrition education classes at the Beach Health Clinic as a part of my practicum project. It's been a lot of work, but it also has been very, very rewarding.

I had a nice solo lunch at Tropical Smoothie. Because things have been quite busy lately, I have found having solo lunches while doing homework or reading have actually been quite soothing for me.

I love bare Minerals make-up! I especially love my new hydrating Mineral Veil!

We celebrated Jeremy's 24th birthday at Beerfest in Town Point Park in Norfolk. Best idea ever!!! It was such a gorgeous day to be outside! I had sooooo much fun! They should have beerfest every weekend of summer :)

Happy birthday, Jeremy! I know you had a blast! ;)

May 14th, 2010

This marked the beginning of a weekend of fun for Jeremy's birthday! ;)

Celebrating at Kokoamos!

On this afternoon, Tara, Bobby, and I had ice cream at Doumar's. I tried to capture a photo of Mr. Doumar himself who was showing how the original cone machine works (which is still in use!) in an interview. He is the cutest, littlest old man!

I took this while on my run. My phone did a horrible job in capturing this field, but it's okay... I can try to describe it instead. This field had beautiful pink and red wild flowers scattered all over... it was quite a sight. I guess I should try to come back with a "real" camera... Hmm, next time hopefully.

May 11th, 2010

This was the second day of summer semester, and I know this may sound quite nerdy, but I'm so excited about my Policy and Politics class! Although I know this summer is going to be quite busy, I'm quite happy to know that I'll be learning lots!

May 10th, 2010

Back at home with my Snicker-babe! I've missed her dearly! Don't know what I'm gonna do when she leaves for Georgia :(

May 9th, 2010


I got a cupcake at Baked & Wired at Georgetown after brunch! [Georgetown Cupcake had the craziest line of life]. I got the Karen's birthday cupcake and it was absolutely delightful! You all must try it if you can! ;)

I hope all the moms out there had a great Mother's day! I thought it was lucky to find a Mama Duck and her ducklings on the Georgetown canal on Mother's Day! :)

Happy Mother's Day to my Mommy! And happy birthday to my Nanay! Love and miss you both!

I love visiting, especially since every time I do.. I get to bond with my little guy! He's getting so big... I can't believe he'll be 2 in just a couple of weeks! I can remember the day he was born as if it were yesterday!

May 7th, 2010



I enjoyed a lovely evening with Sarah and Eirene in DC! I've missed them!
The last two photos are in Co Co Sala... it was chocolate heaven! A little too sweet for my taste, but a treat nonetheless! :)

May 6th, 2010



Because I had some time off from school (one week, ehh?), I decided to get away from home and pay a visit to my old home, Arlington. I made it just in time for Eirene's birthday dinner! We went to Bon Chon in Annandale (they specialize in Korean Fried Chicken... it was heaven! Very similar to my recipe... teehee!) ... Followed by bing soo for dessert! :) I was so exhausted after dinner (as you can see above), but it felt real nice to indulge and be in the company of good friends!

Happy birthday, Eirene! So glad I got to celebrate with you!

Cinco de Mayo at Guadalajara's Town Center!

May 4th, 2010


It sounds pretty strange, but I just love pulling them weeds! This is the before picture... hopefully someday soon I will take the after picture!

[Happy birthday, Ate Tish! :) ]

The finishing touch on my sister's baby shower invitations :)
I love party planning!

May 2nd, 2010


A big thank you to Jeremy for mowing my lawn! I really should've taken a before picture... it honestly looked like a jungle! I was really embarrassed! Now, it's as good as new! :)

May 1st, 2010

This ended up being an exhausting day, but a good one... I definitely took advantage of the wonderful weather! Jerm, April and I ventured off to Granby St. in the evening where it was the opening night of Art Everywhere. Definitely check it out if you have not had a chance to! You might even get to take free photobooth pictures too :)

Happy 30th Birthday, Ate!!!
She was 30 weeks pregnant on her 30th birthday, how cute!
I hope it was a good birthday... we'll continue to celebrate when you're here at the end of the month!

April 30th, 2010

I know that Natalie is probably going to kill me for posting this picture (haha, sorry!), but I just had to finally capture what I've been doing almost every Friday evening! I used to be the biggest hater of zumba, but once I tried it... I couldn't get enough of it! I don't think that I can dance particularly well, but I sure love to do it(!!!) and zumba lets me get rid of all that dance energy that builds up in me! It's what I look forward to at the end of the week! :)

April 29th, 2010


This was my last day of Spring semester, and all I wanted to do after class was change into my pajamas, fold my laundry, listen to Radiolab, and eat chocolate covered peanuts! 'Twas a relaxing evening!

April 28th, 2010


Tara, months back you were wondering what my photo(s) would be for April 28th... and well, they're all of your birthday celebration!!! ;)

Tara decided to have an animal-themed birthday dinner (she's so young at heart! I love it!), and it was just a lot of fun! Tara was a sheep (Tara is to sheep what I am to birds) and I was supposed to be a bird, but I ended up looking more like a Native American, haha! I had a blast Tara! I hope you enjoyed all your birthday celebrations!!! :)
