the "usuals" of San Diego

Going to the usual touristy spots in San Diego never gets old!
I'm for sure coming back to indulge in these pleasures I was so lucky to experience as an undergraduate :)

The delicious desserts at Extraordinary Desserts
The yummy & satisfying barbecue at Phils
The beautiful cliffs
The awesome scenery at Mt. Soledad
What fun being both  a tour guide & tourist :)

Extraordinary Desserts

After four years living in San Diego, I finally experienced the scrumptious & delicious cakes at Extraordinary Desserts in downtown San Diego! Fraisier Triple Berry Torte & Ivoire Royale. Yum :) I'm not a huge sweet tooth fan but I sure do love my white chocolate. The place is a tad bit overpriced, but it's worth it the first time. :)

check out

I'm ready to check out of school. Not that school was hard in terms of its workload (midterms, papers, & finals were annoying but doable), but I'm so glad college is only four years :) San Diego was good to me, but I think I can handle a new chapter in my life. I'm actually looking forward to moving back home, to helping my mom around the house, to completing mini-project ideas I have brewing in my head, to serving more at church, to going on missions to China, and to start applying for graduate schools (as disgusting as that sounds). Researching schools got me excited because I might actually be there someday! :) Oh, how I want to experience life somewhere other than Southern California. Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Maryland, Virginia, Washington...wherever I go, here I come :) & if worst comes to worst when I don't get accepted for Fall 2011, the option of teaching in Korea is still there. Hehe

I finally found out what my blood type is!
I'm not a mystery anymore :)

wish-list

1. West Highland White Terriers ("Westies") 
These terriers are so adorable! And best of all, they're a non-shedding dog. Aw, these little darlings melts my heart :)
2. Blue Bear Cellphone Holder - $5.00 at morninggloryus.com
How convenient to have a place to hold my cellphone instead of scrimmaging around my bag when the phone rings :) Koreans think of the clever-ist ideas to make money from the consumers, but I think this is worth the $5.
3. Black High-Top Converses - $30.00 at Kohls
I don't know why. I have no reason but I just want them. I guess I could never get over my love for converse :)
4. Loveable Lobster - $20.00 at Build-a-Bear
How cute is this little lobster! I know Build-a-Bear is super overpriced with their dolls, clothes, and accessories, but this lobster is way too cute :)
5. NASB Updated Edition - Ultrathin Reference Bible
It's time for a new bible! I had mine (actually, it's not even mine because a youth pastor from high school gave me her used one) since forever & it just never felt like my own. Plus, it'll be nice to follow along with the version my church uses on Sundays :)
6. Macbook Pro - $1,199 at the Apple Store
My faithful Toshiba died a few months ago so I've been using my friend's old Macbook Pro. I never thought I would get used to an Apple, but I love it! :)


But what's numero uno on my wish-list? To go on a trip to the east coast & explore the grad schools I want to go to, eat, & being touristy!
