Its been a horrible week to start the new year… New Years Eve came by and I totally slept through past midnight because I was dead tired from work.

^{The bunbuns deny all involvement and was the only sane part of their Mommy’s week.}

Wednesday was a head rush, with a family emergency that I was totally floored about.

Saturday was an insane mess, with this crapshit that the staffing office did to me at work. I was so annoyed and I ended up coming in at 8pm, had to catch up on tasks that needed to be done at the start of the shift (thanks so much, Ate Jenny¹ for staying past your shift to cover my patients! hugs*), and had some issues with demanding patients I needed to creatively resolve. All because the staffing person miscalculated the number of nurses that need to come in!

Sunday was a dirty, stinky night at work… seemed like all I did all night was clean p&p²‘s.

Hey 2012, this better not be the rest of my year… I deserve good things this year, yo!

On a brighter note, I am super excited that my nursing unit is finally moving to a new building in the next few days! I bought a nice Keurig, and a cute little piggybank to raise funds for coffee… and today I managed to take some time to read a book called The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. Granted it is a YA novel about two cancer afflicted teens finding their identity and love upon meeting each other, but it really more heartfelt rather than somber/depressing. The prose is refreshingly honest, witty, and at times biting with sarcasm… all mixed with a love story that broke my heart after I finished it.

And the skies were lovely today –

So Christmas came by… unremarkable and the usual — lots of gorging on “holiday” foods like my mom’s signature macaroni salad. Got this hilarious gift from my sister… a pink bunny suit/pajama that is ridiculously warm. I have the full on (read: embarassing) shots in my Facebook, but here is the cute footsies part –

My brother said it looks exactly like his baby daughter (my one year old neice)’s sleep pullovers… kekeke.

Speaking of jammies… Chubbi and Mochi seem to have this fascination with them –

Monday mornings were lazy, with post Christmas shopping… had coffee at this posh coffee bar called Dripp, it had that hipster feel to it for sure, and it even said “no photography” sign near the glass doors…. which obviously didn’t stop me –

Paired with some yummy Cookies & Cream cupcakes from Dolcissimo, a cute and quaint little bakeshop that had these bright pink receipts. The good looking guy at the counter asked me if I needed a bag… being the ecofriendly me, said no… replying “but I’ll take the reciept, just because its pink!” –

And sat underneath the sunny Californian sun, admiring my teal polished nails…

I’m going back to work tommorrow, ughhhh.

This is probably why I have really have NO love life (insert forever alone meme here) to speak off… I always resign myself to live vicariously through fictional characters.

One of my favorite OTP this year… the actors behind the bestfriendswhoaremeanttobetogether Cheng You Qing and Li Da Ren of In Time With You… Ariel Lin and Bolin Chen! I’m such a sucker for romantic comedies, I even watched the movie they filmed prior to the drama series… a light fare called LOVESICK, a story about Ruo Qing who was so heartbroken that she becomes pathologically afraid of love. What happens when she meets neurosurgeon, and over all “perfect guy” Lu Zhu Han? Sparks fly and she gets cured of her love phobia.

Commence photo spammage –

And a super cute unseen pic from their drama…



I can’t even verbalize how I frikkin’ love these two! Ariel has such great comedic timing with a master skill of weeping at command while Bolin is just that boy next door that you wished really lived next to you… effortlessly handsome and gives of that warm, cozy feeling like you would feel if he was lovingly hug you. Yep, I’m confessing that I’m a fangirl.
