How many days to Korea?

Seventeen!! Yes! Seventeen more days until I go to Korea!!! W00T!!

It's coming up closer and closer! Makes me think about how fast the time will fly when I am in korea. I better enjoy every minute of it!! I hope to!

So this weekend, I was supposed to go to Camarillo to see Brian and go to Lee's parent's Casino night, but that didn't happen. Carol was making one of her rare appearances home this weekend and I didn't really want to miss that. So Brian was so kind to let me pass on the Casino night. Carol and my mom and I went to the mall and enjoyed ourselves. Oh yes..before we did that, we went to Souplantation to eat ourselves silly...hehehe. Afterwards, Carol modeled her outfit that she bought from Express and then I went upstairs to start reorganizing my closet. I always have to reorganize my closet every few weeks or so. I really need to get into the habit of keeping my closet nice...All the time! Easier said than done. But then I ended up sitting in my pile of clothes...researching through different magazines, to see how to draw eyebrows. See...I've always fallen in the 15% who don't really take care of their eyebrows. But then when I realized how important eyebrows can be to a person's appearance. I didn't realize how light my eyebrows were. So I am going to start to take better care of my brows.

Sunday my mom and I went to Costco so we could start buying gifts for our trip to korea. We didn't end up buying what we wanted to because the coupon for the discount didn't start until the 27th. But it was nice to go. So fricking crowded at Costco though. I started to get frustrated. People are just all over the place!! I know that it is expected, but man. I had to back up and pave the way because otherwise, no one was going to go anywhere. I did a lot of sigh-ing. *sigh*

What is the big deal with Costco anyways? We bought detergent, two bags of chips, some eye cream ($20.00) , two bottles of glucosamine, and toothpaste, and it all came out to $120! Too much. Too much. I think I'll stick to just regular markets.

Brian came by on Sunday night. He was on his way back to SD from Camarillo and he just couldn't pass up on an opportunity to see his lovely girlfriend. muahhahahahah. We wento to Noodle Planet to have some pad thai, spring rolls, and some boba. We then came back to my place and watched this documentary of the Chandra Levy case. I can't believe they couldn't find her for a whole year! Tsk Tsk. We had a nice time watching TV and cuddling. Too bad that he had to leave soon after, but it was still nice. Love yoU!

Carol's Belated Birthday



Today, we went to have dinner at BCD to celebrate Carol's 22nd Birthday. We were gonna go to a Chinese place, but Carol didn't want to spend too much money so we went to get yummy tofu instead...that "Sahl Lim Ggoon!!" hehehehe. It tasted extra yummy today too! Afterwards, we went to the Cafe next to my dad's store to have some dessert. We had coffee/tea and Madeline cookies. Sorry Carol that it wasn't as eventful as it should have been.

Well, afterwards I watched a bunch of Korean dramas....namely Goong (The Imerial Household). I love the main guy...he's so cute!



Here are the pictures from our dinner.

Fondue Valentines



So, this weekend was Brian and my early Valentine's weekend. We went to this place in downtown La Jolla called Forever Fondue. We enjoyed a lovely 4 course meal consisting of an cheese fondue appetizer, a caesar salad, meat/seafood/veggie shabu shabu-type fondue and then finally the Chocolate fondue with strawberries, pineapples, bananas, poundcake, and cheesecake. It was all so yummy. Sorry I don't have pictures of the chocolate fondue portion of the dinner. I was too busy eating it that I forgot to take a picture of it! hehehe. But enjoy the ones that we took!


Soo got a new hair-do! I was surprised at first, but then thought it was pretty cool. She makes it look pretty good! I know I'd look like a freak with that do. "Hello AcCoUNTinG!? " Hehe, but yea..we had yummy Salmon with Jasmine rice and salad and yummy apple turnover for dessert. Jonathan joined us for dinner as well. We laughed up a storm and got more than our daily recommendation of 15 minutes a day of laughing. hahahaahaa.

Dinner with the family



Went to eat BEEF with the family tonight. A rare event for us. So I decided to take some pics with my new camera. It really does make a difference when you have a smaller camera! I don't feel like I'm bringing out a camera. It just seems like I'm taking a picture with my phone or something along that line. It can sound like excuses to validate my purchase....but I really do notice a difference.

I would have taken more pictures, but I still only have the 16Mb that they gave me when I bought the camera so I was only able to take a few. Here they are..

Work? Work was work.

Countdown to KOREA!!

38 Days until I go to Korea!!! I'm so excited!!!

Reminiscent


Did I spell that word right? Reminiscent? Oh well....that's me today. So I was looking through old pictures on my computer and I noticed that I had these videos of us on our first trip to vegas. They are not the best of videos because some of them were not intentional, but still I hope you all enjoy it.

You can find the different files here: http://yoojinny.com/videos/

Oh yes! I bought a new camera! I'm so bad...I know...but I LOVE it!!!!


It is the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX8. I gave my older Canon camera to my brother Peter. He likes it a lot. He took it to his friend's birthday party and had a good time taking pics and videos. I will be able to take my camera out more often because I won't feel like I'm holding a big brick with me. hehehe. This now gives me no more excuses!

Oh yes, here are some pictures from one of our weekend outings to downtown SD. There is a pic of Sean, Sheila, Brian and I at the downtown Yardhouse. Food was pretty decent. The mac and cheese was superb...minus the chicken chunks.
