  • Wedding

    Yesterday was one of those days where you know you have lots to do but you can't seem to motivate yourself to accomplish everything on the list.

    I woke up at 9am, talked with Calvin for a while, then got ready to head out for breakfast with mom and go to the dentist. Originally we were headed towards Copa but then ended up going to white spot because Copa was so full and we thought there wasn't much point to waiting in line since we wanted breakfast and by the time we were at Copa it was already 11am.

    It was my first time eating breakfast at white spot and to my surprise, then actually serve brunch which was very appetizing and with a reasonable prize. I ordered the pulled pork burritos which came with two pieces of flat baked potatoe as well as a large burritos cut in half filled with green onions and amazing pulled pork. The prize came to be $10.99. On the side were three sauces: avocado with corn, sour cream, as well as taco sauce. To me it was a very good lunch. Mom ordered their blueberry waffle for $7.99 and all I could say was that the waffle was very fresh and thick with fresh made blueberries ;)

    I made it in time for my dental appointment and had my teeth cleaned after three year's time. Yes that's right! I'm so freaked out by dentists in general that I try to avoid seeing them until in times of need. And this time it's mainly because I'd like to get my wisdom teeth examined and see if I'll need to take them out. Well, it turned out that I'll have to consult with a specialist about my three wisdom teeth haha. Hope I don't have to spend too much on pulling them out!

    When I came back home initially I was really motivated to study but what started from a sofa comfort turned out to be a sleeping episode. Dot dot dot. When I awoke it was already time to head out to a friend's wedding dinner and I quickly got dressed up in a flower bloom dress I got from H&M last week for a mere $15. If you ask me I think it's a really good deal considering how the original prize is $30 and you can't tell that it's cheap quality.

    All I can say about the wedding dinner was that the food was really good and that I was stuffed to the max. We ate at Golden Harvest restaurant situated on 4818 Main Street. A simple look at the food they serve should be enough to motivate anyone to go try. I'm not sure how the normal dishes they serve are like but I especially liked their lobster as well as bao Yu. ;) . I'm not so keen on the shark fin and really do oppose to the capture of sharks for the sake of shark fins, although its been a tradition of the Chinese culture to eat them during special events.

    Rita and Eric's was quite simple but sweet in the sense that they shared a very fun an unique love story, and from all the games and interactions that occurred last night, one can tell how "fun" this couple is. Of course, with every married couple comes a unique love story of their own, and I hope that some day I can have a unique story of my own to share too.
