    25 things I wish I could tell my younger self

    At 25 years old, I’m still very young and have a lot to learn. But gosh, if I’m at a quarter of a century and haven’t learned anything, I must be doing something wrong. Thank goodness I have learned some things and this is what I wish I could tell my younger self. 1. Love your parents. Your parents only want what’s best for you. So even though what they might be telling you over and over again might get annoying, love them anyways because they are just showing you that they love you. 2. Break ups are not the end of the world. This is a big one that I…

    Out with the negativity

    It’s 2018! It’s a new year! Well, we’re a month and a half into it but January was just a practice month anyways! Besides, for Asians, New Years doesn’t start till Lunar New Years anyways. Now I know everyone makes their list of New Year resolution – work out, eat healthier, make money, the uzhe. This year, I challenge every single one of you to ditch all the negativity in your life. I am a strong believer in positive and negative energy. I believe that positive people will bring positive energy to the space around you and negative people will bring negative energy around you. I also like to think…

    How the Keto diet worked for me… until it didn’t

    The Keto diet is a low to no carb diet while intaking high fat and an adequate amount of proteins. I know, how do you lose weight by eating fat?! Let me tell you, this was one of my favorite diet. I could eat all the bacon I wanted, all the cheese I wanted, but I couldn’t eat bread or rice. That was kind of ok because I just made tons of keto bread (Oopsie bread) and made lots of cauliflower as replacements for rice and pizzas. I’ll post some  of my favorite recipes below. So basically, this diet works because after a certain amount of time without carbohydrates, our body…

    Cyber Monday!

    Good afternoon lovelies! It’s the Monday after Thanksgiving! Do you know what that means?! Cyber Monday! I opted out of Black Friday shopping this year because I much rather just shop from the comfort of my bed and not have to deal with the hassle of finding a certain size or standing in line for hours. So if you’re like me, or if you’re not all shopped out yet, here’s some awesome Cyber Monday deals! BONUS: A lot of these sites have cash back via eBates. So if you still don’t know what that is, read my blog about it to maximize savings! Click here for the blog. Clothing &…

    What my exes taught me

    Every relationship we have should teach us something about ourselves or teach us something in general. Whether it’s a relationship between you and a teacher, or you and a friend, or you and a lover. I’ve started dating before my parents even allowed me to. Although they didn’t like it, I think they knew that it was essential for me to start learning about relationships, about myself, and about others sooner rather than later. I was young and naive when I started dating this particular ex. I loved him more than I should have. He was a liar and a cheater and everyone knew it. I knew it. Looking back,…

    My furbaby turned 5!

    Did I really throw a birthday party for my Great Dane/lab baby, Colby? Well… YES. YES I DID, and it was so much fun! I spent about a day yelping the best bars in Houston that is also dog friendly. Who knew there were so many in Houston?! I’ve only been to one bar in Houston that was dog friendly, Revolver Houston, and that was for another dog’s birthday party. Anyways, one bar stood out to me during my research, Underdog Pub. Not only is this place a bar, it’s also dog friendly that lets your dog off the leash. Like seriously, they’re allowed to roam anywhere they please, even behind the bar!
