Tornado Warning??

So lately the weather in Toronto has been just jacked up. There have been slight earthquakes, rain and sun at the same time, and abnormally cool weather. And the finale tonight... a tornado warning??!! Well hopefully everyone has a safe and sound evening... 

So my skin has once again not been behaving very well and I decided that it was time to put it back into shape. I found the Neutrogena wave on sale at Shoppers Drugmart and being the "budget conscious" shopper, I felt that it was my duty to respond to the call. Personally, I'm a very skeptical shopper, but I was pleasantly surprised when the Neutrogena wave worked like a charm. Your face truly feels soft after one use and it doesn't hurt or damage your skin. All in all, at the end of the night, it was a big two thumbs up! I also bought a Vichy kit that all sorts of goodies... enough shopping for me.

 A sample size Vichy sunscreen along with Vichy foundation sample. Unfortunately, this color doesn't accommodate my Asian face...

My lovely purchases! Such an accomplished day!

 My lovely vintage clutch along with some necessities. I know... I still have a "dumbphone." I truly love old stuff... whether it is old phones or old iPods... Today was a looonnngg day with "not-so-fun-overly-repetitive" training at work. Oh well at least it's paid for... anyways hope everyone has a safe night. 굳밤!~

Jeepers Creepers

So today I was just chilling and strolling around the neighbourhood when I ran into these "tweens." Their conversation went a little like this...

Girl 1: OMG Justin Bieber is my fav! I would so want to go out with him!
Friend: I dunno he's looks like a girl. Would you want to date a girl?

While laughing, the conversation made me think of when I once had idols and looked up to them. I still remember back in the day when I was delusional in thinking that I was one of the Spice Girls. I knew all the lyrics to their songs and my friends and I would always fight over who would be Sporty Spice. And, you can't forget the infamous platforms. They represented the Spice Girls Era and the higher they were, you were proud! I am happy to say that platforms are back in!!!! Clap** I recently fell in love with these creepers on asos. Black, shiny, tall and oh so beautiful... I must get them this fall!!!!!

 I just posted these pictures because I was craving macarons sooo badly today... I wish I could've gone but I will wait until I get my TTC pass...

 When my sis first bought this vintage shirt over a year ago I thought I looked overly "hippy-like" and decided that I didn't like it. I don't know why my mind has changed so drastically... but it was absolutely perfect for a breezy, summer day! So after a long four months of doing almost nothing, I'm finally going back to work tomorrow and getting back into the groove... 굳밤!~

Silver Lining

Long time no see!!! I know it's been waaaaaayyy too long since the last post... wow time flies by! I can't believe it's already late August... After 3 grueling years, it's finally my last year and I can see it all coming to an end! I guess a lot has happened since the last post. My roomie has finally graduated and is no longer living with me. However, we have "skype dates" on a daily basis and are diligently working on our next project. I know... another project yet we have billions of unfinished projects. As for me, I'm just chilling, and trying to get outside as much as possible to enjoy the two months (not exaggerated at all**) of summer we have up here.

 These are pretty old pictures but I thought I would upload them anyways. I think this was about a year ago. Both my roomie and I got to stay at the Fairmont Royal York for free for a night because I work for Fairmont through my school. I guess I can't really complaint considering it was free but the room was pretty small and dark as you can see from the blurry pictures... -_-

 In action as always... part of our project from last summer. We always have these extravagant ideas that we can't execute the way people expect us to... so we interpret them in our own way. We found a really nice park near our house and wanted to take product shots. So we brought bags and bags of clothing and accessories to a point I'm sure there were people who thought we were homeless.

 Eating good food brings joy and calmness... they are totally worth every calorie after a long day of product shots.

 My roomie's capstone project for her final year. Very abstract and took eternity to level out all the boxes.

I was never really a blueberry fan until I went blueberry picking. They are so fresh, juicy and sweet. After eating freshly picked blueberries, you'll never go back to the store bought ones... 
Anyways, this time I promise I will be more diligent in posting... everybody 굳밤!

NEW BEGINNING

I've not forgotten about you. I'll be back.

EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED

So... a lot has happened since the last post (obviously since the last post was a month ago). I attended a school award ceremony which I thought I wouldn't be able to go after the first year, I bought plane tickets to Seattle for Christmas (woohoo), and I got HACKED. These are just a few of the mundane, everyday occurances that I've been going through. My negligence to open the LOLASFLEAMARKET site is making me really guilty but the truth of the matter is that I need about 5 other me to do everything on top of the store website. I don't meant to be spewing angst right now but I think I really need a break. I'm SO counting down for Christmas. Are you?

p.s: sorry to my Korean readers(?) I don't have time to translate my posts anymore... maybe I should install one of those auto translate function?

BUSY BEE

OMG I realized that I haven't posted anything in so long. It's not that I've forgotten all about the blog, it's just that school is consuming my life right now. On top of that I now have two jobs. Bravo. I've just dug myself a grave.

By the Window

나는 지금 하는 일이 두개있다. 롤라의 벼룩시장 그리고 대학 도서관 사진자료실.
내 사무실은 작다. 하지만 사진자료실 사무실중엔 내 사무실만 창문이 있다. 그래서 다른 직원들은 부러워한다. 뭐 그리 좋은 전망이 있는것도 아니지만. 지금은 햇빛도 들도 따뜻해서 좋지만 겨울엔 추울것 같다. 사진자료실은 사람들이 거의 없어 항상 조용한곳. 그래서 너무 편하고 좋다. 일하면서 음악도 듣구 머핀도 먹구 ㅋㅋ. 어쩔땐 사진감상이라 생각하며 일할때도 있다. 정말 이사무실은 내 아지트이다. 마음같에서는 집에있는 날로나 커피포트등 가지고 와서 살림을 차리고 싶지만 매일 오지않기 때문에 그건 조금 오버인거 같다 ㅋㅋ.

I have two jobs right now: Lola's Fleamarket and imaging assistant at a university library.
My office is small. BUT only my office has a window in the imaging department so it's pretty special even though I don't have the greatest view (a demolished building) lol. It's sunny right now so the room's pretty warm but I know it's going to be cold during winter.
There's almost always no one in here so it's really quiet in the image archive room. I love the quietness. It's so peaceful and I do whatever I want when I'm working. I listen to music and eat muffins lol. Sometimes I don't even feel like I'm working but rather having a wonderful time looking through amazing photographs. I really do love my work and my office. I want to personalize the space by bring a mini heater and a coffee pot but I think I'd feel a little silly making it more homey than my actual home.
