Oops, 3 months later, and I continue my 30 Day Challenge.. LOL! So much for doing it every day!~ Let's just do the later half all at once now! I am so funny~~
Day 15- Put your iPod on shuffle: First 10 songs that play
I don't listen to music on my iPod.. I listen to music on the radio :D
Day 16- Another picture of yourself
Too lazy to post pics already :D
Day 17- Someone you would want to switch lives with for one day and why
Hmm, this is interesting to think about.. I cannot think of any right now...
Day 18- Plans/dreams/goals you have
Learn Italian! Learn Korean! Get married! Be Canadian! Take great photos with my (new!) DSLR! So much to do, so much laziness :S
Day 19- Nicknames you have; why do you have them
Chunz: The secondary school gang; we all have some part of our names, and we add a 'z' to the end.. Just sounded so much cooler yo. And then we used Zebra marker to write it on the cement floor at the "hole", our secret hideout during recess.. Sadly we cannot go to revisit these memories, since the old campus has been torn down..
Day 20- Someone you see yourself marrying/being with in the future
I don't want to jinx it.. Y'all should know who it is ;)
Day 21- A picture of something that makes you happy
No pictures, but sunshine and blue skies make me happy :)
Day 22- What makes you different from everyone else
I don't like things that are too popular... Examples would be Jay Chou, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga..
Day 23- Something you crave for a lot
Sushi! Chocolate!
Day 24- A letter to your parents
Hi parents,
We sure are an odd family.
Love, your only child
Day 25- What I would find in your bag
Wallet, 3 X Lanyards (one each for camera, keys, bus pass), phone (but usually in my pocket) -- these are the standard things..
Not-so-standard things range from: Candy, tissue, pad, lipstick, phone charger..
Day 26- What you think about your friends
Friends? What friends?
Day 27- Why are you doing this 30 day challenge
Wanted to test my perseverance (obviously an epic fail), thought it would be an interesting road of self discovery, and boredom.
Day 28- A picture of you last year and now, how have you changed since then?
My looks haven't changed much.. I have opened my heart to love again and I now feel like the luckiest girl on earth ;)
Day 29- In this past month, what have you learned
- Jobhunting is not easy.
- Having endless jobless days is torturing.
- Unemployment is not fun.
Day 30- Who are you?
Why do you want to know who I am? I don't even know who I am.
HAHAHA DONE! Half-arsed answers, I know! I just want to get this over and done with!!! :P

Goodbye, 2010 ♥
Happy New Year to all!!! It's 2011, and today's a special day: 1/1/11!!! :)
Let's recap 2010, shall we? I'm sure everyone agrees with me that it went by way too fast! First of all, I am so glad I had someone special this year and it's been wonderful to have someone beside me and there for me.. Thank you and I hope 2011 will be another great year for us!
Let's do a recap...
January
Spent time with a very special person, whom I grew more and more fond of, and had the most number of birthday meals ever (4! with different groups of people!).. It was a memorable birthday year, turning 22!
February
Olympic Games or the start of a very special journey, I can't decide which one is more life-changing.. Haha... It would be the first (and possibly last) time I'll ever have such an opportunity to see the Games very up close and with my own eyes.. And earn money while doing that! And it was a very wonky Valentine's Day, but I'm glad everything turned out great.. Also the year that V-Day coincided with the first day of Chinese New Year..
March/April
Went on with school, not much exciting things and exams were BLAH. Almost thought I was going to fail the course my favourite professor taught, was very relieved that my student life at UBC had ended on a graceful note.
May
The first time going to the Canadian Rockies, saw many beautiful natural sights, mountains, glaciers, lakes.. I HAVE TO GO BACK during the summer some day. It would also be a first vacation together for us, so it is especially sentimental.. Really wish I can go to explore more of inner BC's nature..
And of course, my graduation ceremony! It was drizzling a bit but it still turned out picture-perfect! It is a siginificant milestone in my life, isn't it?
June
Spent the sunny days going to many places around Vancouver, seeing more new sights and hidden gems in the city. Explored a lot, took a lot of pictures; this is just one of them. Many beautiful sunsets, endless blue skies, cotton white clouds...
July
Finally found a place I now call home, living with the best family anyone can ask for (3 young kids, and the cat above who sits in the flower box). I have a nice big room to put all my junk, and it screams LOCATION all over! Nice neighbourhood, 10 minutes to groceries, 10 minutes to UBC, direct bus to Downtown, I don't want to move out anymore!
August
Alone in Vancouver for a month, spending evenings on Skype. (Thank you technology!) On the bright side, time passed fast with my first full-time job, even though it was a temporary one. I settled well into it, tried not to make too many complaints and stay positive, ended staying there for 4 months instead of 4 weeks.
September
Baked a cake and celebrated a special 21st birthday for the special someone, it turned out semi-disastrous but still edible. Hey, it's the thought that counts right? :D
October
Not much happening, just regular work and date nights on some weeks. What a bore work turns you into huh! Actually lost my job for the long weekend and then they called me back. That was something. Oh, got a short short haircut too! Hello bangs again!
November
Got our first crazy Vancouver snowfall, ridiculously sub-zero weather for a couple days. It was sunny and snowy, too bad didn't get to play in the snow at all. But everyone was thankful when the snow was finally gone, as it was becoming quite a nuisance than a pretty sight.
December
The month for joy and festivities, and my job assignment ended. I try to stay positive and enjoy it as much as possible. Ate lots of good food, went to lots of good places, visited many Christmas sights in the city, met up with some friends. It was a great month!
My 2010 was the best year anyone can ask for, all I hope that 2011 will be even better or equally as good! :)
