Summer Heat

I am not loving the heat. But I hate the few cold days we had recently. I'm so picky. Nothing great has happened but I cannot be so pessimistic. I should be grateful and give my gratitude to what I have now. I been seeing lots of people and staying in touch so I'm glad for it. I'm excited for the weekend and 4th of July and cannot wait for the memories I'll make before I leave CA for awhile.

I also been eating a lot and my new camera is seriously makes things 100x more yummy. Recently I went to Melting Pot for the first time thanks to LivingSocial and I thought it was a great experience. The deal was for bottle of wine, appetizer, 2 salad, 2 entree and 2 dessert drinks. Even with the $65 for $130, we ended up spending $60+ more because of tax, tips and chocolate fondue. So the total was around $130. It's not worth the price at all but the monthly specials/deals make it better.We did get a lot of alcohol which wasn't a good idea since my bf had to drive and I just drank most of it. I did have lots of fun and would go back if there was a cheaper deal.

Cheers to a long dinner! It took about 3+ hours!! We were there from 6:30 dinner and stayed till 10 something. I think I was a bit drunk but I seriously didn't think we were there that long!


 First course was the artichoke cheese fondue. I loved the apples! The bread tasted stale bleeh and chips were nice. Veggies were good. We also had a salad but I was kind of hungry and didn't take a picture. Mines had too much dressing.

 Main course was the seafood trio with salmon, mahi mahi and shrimp. The fish were okay and shrimp was the best. Bf got the filet mignon with portobello mushrooms. There was a side of veggies too. Broccoli, mushroom and potato. If you just had entree, you won't feel full honestly but it was fun since I was drunk haha.

We got 2 dessert drinks that I didn't take a picture of but one was a muscat and another was a coffee drink. I was super drunk by then. The dessert we got was I think the smores one. I really liked the marshmallow the most. The brownie and cake were so so. I ended up just eating the chocolate out of the pot at the end....

I would go back once in a blue moon but otherwise I'll stick to my Asian hot pot at home. I prefer a lot more veggies!


As for shopping.... sigh. it isn't a good thing. I just kept buying things these past week. shame on me!


 Work heels, $20. It's pretty nice quality. I should have waited till I was in the east coast so I won't have to drag so much stuff but they were cute, cheap and leather. got at 6pm.com. Lemming on getting so C flats but are $30.
 
Floral belt, $3. I really liked the design. It was too big for me so I had to sew the sides together. I really love it but wonder when I'll actually wear it... Found it at Ross.
 Rainbow flip flops. I actually wanted thin straps but they were sold out. I guess these are not bad either and I been wanting a pair for ages. They were $25 even with 50% discount. I literally live in flip flops and I have so many broken pairs so I think it's a good deal to invest in these. I am going to wear it in the east coast. I want to buy more flip flops from AF or Hollister before I leave but probably wait till super sale and order from there.
 Blazer from H&M $22. I don't love it but don't hate it either. I think it would be good for work. I don't like the buttons but for $22 it's a good deal. I really hope the Zara blazer gets cheaper but I can live with this one for now until I get rich and invest in some nice ones. But chances are I'll not wear much coats when I work.
 Apron, $12. Super random buy. I think I'll give it to my mom or use it to bake or something. I think it's so cute though..... Sigh impulse buy.
 Dress skirt. Express $15. I prefer skirt/dress over pants any day. I am a girly girl so I love the heels/skirt. Pants make me look weird! But I'll wear it regardless. It's a bit cheap but good appropriate length.

Victoria secret bra, 2 for $43. I wanted to Gorgeous line for awhile so I cave in to the semi-annual sale. I hate tax and pretty bras. They are super comfy and I LOVE the halter option~ and the design is cute!

I really don't want to add up the total cost...

Total : $140
Total damage: $475

I still haven't added my new winter boots, bf presents, and zara... ugh. I wish I had a job now.
