Pictures and Life
I work 7 days a week now. Pro: I’m high in demand with clients. Con: I have no time for my family or to just relax. Pro: I truly enjoy my work and feel very happy while working. Con: I am addicted to work. Pro: Im saving a little more than normal. Con: for the little extra I’m making, I’d rather not make that money and have my free time. Pro: But because I’m working so much and with so many people, I am learning invaluable tools and secrets for my future. Con: When is this future ever going to come. It feels like FOREVERS. Pro: I know when I get there I’ll be super prepared and confident and have very little chance of failure. It may not be the fast track but it’s a strong foundation.
Last week I went on vacation to Seattle for yobo’s birthday. It was an awesome 3 days. Instead of the usual fancy dinners and nice outfits, I stayed in bed all 3 days. It was blissful
I surprised yobo with some mini cakes and cupcakes. I brought it all the way from San Francisco then LIED and told him they were just leftovers cuz he asked why I was holding a box of food. What I don’t get is why he took me out to eat even though if I had left overs because that would have meant I had just eaten AND that I still had food. Lol. This guy! Anyhow, then I had to hide it in the fridge and tell his mom what it is so she can help keep him away from it. After dinner we had to come up with a plan to distract him at the table while I got up to set it up. Like my rainbow candles? It was the only one I could find at the cake store in San Francisco
Everyone kept saying I look so tired and I should go to sleep early. I didn’t even help with the dishes. It was the damn lashes okay!?! I put them on so thick everyone thinks Im sleepy! That and eyelid tape which I guess makes my eyes look heavy. Oh well. I still like them. And the day yobo lets me have plastic surgery that is what I’ll be getting so ha! Sleepy Van for life it is.
And my boobs look bigger than normal because I am getting fat. I haven’t weighed this much in years. When I’m busy, I don’t have time to be pretty and eat healthy okay? Gaaah. Even yobo, who has never said anything negative about me before, said I’m losing my curves and becoming a straight blob. I wanted to kick him but lucky him we’re long distance. Anyhow, it’s hard! Because I want to snack all the time to keep my energy going. And I have been having lots of cravings to satisfy lately, more than usual. My mother mentioned that pregnant people get lots of cravings too. No mother I am not -_____- so awkward.. shesssh.
The next day I don’t remember what we did but yobo was getting cabin fever from staying home all day so I let him take me out for some Ben and Jerrys. My current favorite flavor of ice cream is anything with cherries in it. Just in case someone wants to buy me some ice cream, even though I have Cherry Garcia in my freezer at the moment. Resisting urge to eat some now. Must stay skinny.
I’ve been craving for Korean BBQ buffet for months! But I never eat it in San Francisco because I’m too little to eat buffet and I might as well shred my money. But when I’m with yobo’s family they eat more than enough to cover me and then a small village in Vietnam so I eat guilt free! I’m wearing an ugly sweater because yobo’s family is conservative and I can’t show my shoulders at the dinner table. Trust me, underneath is a very cute outfit. You’ll just have to believe me.
I always force them to take so many family photos. They act like they don’t like it but I’m sure they do
And unless you want to see pictures of me in bed all sprawled out with my mouth hanging open and drooling then there are no more pictures because that is what I did all week in Seattle.
And now I’m back in San Francisco and working 7 days a week again. And that is all
Oh by the way, I am loving xanga. It’s so alive. I have been introduced to so many new pages and so I have new subscriptions to read. Hopefully I can keep up with my posts!

@mkazama - No, Im a droopy lidder so it covers up my eyelid. But only on one eye -_____- for now.. hahaha

@genesis83 - @youngvan - they do exist……on my phone…..
@Wang_Choe83 - really? well, i don’t believe it…
@Wang_Choe83 - DEATH!!!!!
@youngvan - Better than me… anytime I put mascara or lashes on, I have crazy wonk eye. I’d never get surgery though. I’ve embraced my monolid.
Well, working for your future is very important…you want to be stress free later on in life. But it’s good to be stress free all along the way. But we all know, you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes. And nothing wrong with staying in all three days sometimes….keeping it nice and simple is always welcome in this hustle and bustle life we lead.
ryc: Yeah…but that’s rare! That’s when you found what you’ve been looking for all these years!
