Summer Love

Summer is my favorite season. You generally feel happier and excited becuase the sun is out and it is time to live your life.  As probably the last summer where I really can relax, I am trying to squeeze as much out of California before I head east. I hate waitlist btw. I wish they just reject me. By now I am now 99% east coast.

I was talking to my bf about things that I need to see or do before I miss it too much, especially when it's summer and it's really the moment to go crazy. I am so afriad of the cold! The list is actually pretty big but I am going to focus on things I can do and want to do before I leave and will not get on the other side. Although I'm pretty sure there would be opportunities to explore and find things I'll love too.

1. Smittens ice cream, heck any ice cream is fine when it's scorching hot. But my love for salted caramel forces me to drive out to SF any day
2. Take pika pika. I love sticky pics and decorating them. I know I can do it on my phone but I always liked having a solid copy to keep as memories
3. Go to museum on Bank of America free day. Probably will miss June's free day. Maybe July
4. House of prime rib. The salad is divine. I might find better but it's unforgettable
5. Really good sushi. I doubt I'll be near really good sushi so I should eat my fill soon
6. Really good Chinese food. I know there's a chinatown but I tried it and I miss mines. Sigh
7. See friends. I will miss them so much but at the same time I'm excited to make new ones. So bittersweet
8. Waterworld. It would be nice to have some fun in the sun right?
9. Go to LA/Vegas. Probably will not happen as I will literally have no time to go but I will dream of these places until I come back
10. Napa. I really want to eat at Bouchon but since NY has one I guess if I'm desperate I can drive 
11. Party hard for my early bday, bf bday and farewell party. I don't know if it includes alcohol or just semi-formal dinner because I'm too old.

Well that's it for now. There is always restaurants I want to try but nothing I'll miss yet. I think I need to do more summery things to do like go to beaches than stay at home watching How I Met Your Mother or playing games all summer.

Back to financial issues. I been not spending as much and I only purchase two items. The rest of my money probably went to food. Pat on back except one cost $222. fml. My mom did get me some stuff at Ann Taylor. About $30 for a skirt and top. Guess I'll add it to my spending.

Bought this top at Marshall for $11. I love big tops and I don't have anything lavender. I think it's cute.

This has not arrived yet, my maybe Marc by Marc Jacobs Natasha shoulder bag for $222. Still debating if I will keep it or maybe sell it? I was attracted to silver hardware as gold is kind of tacky for me. I know gold is mega popular and I have gold items but if I had a choice I will always choose silver. I got it at net-a-poter. One of the most deadly shopping sites for designer duds. The discounts in their sales are to die for and no tax and free shipping/return!?! I wanted a cross body bag as it's more "safe" to travel with.... not that I will be but I can always prepare right?  It is harder to yank something over your body vs a tote you are weakly holding or just hanging on your shoulders. I also eyed a Miu Miu, Mulberry bag but over budget so I'm hoping this will satisfy me.  I know I should stop buying but ugh it's an addiction. The Valentino sale was also very tempting because I am a sucker for bows.

Well I think it's a good thing that I been pickier about buying items vs buying cuz it looks good at the moment. But sadly my wallet isn't that happy. Doubt it would be happy when I invest in a DSLR. I don't know how much I have lying around anymore... sigh
