I’m baaaack!

Miss me? No? It’s okay. My mom did.

I came back  from Los Angeles Monday night only to find that the sun that embraced me over the last 4 days didn’t follow me home. I thought we loved eachother? Wah wah. :(

Instead, I came home to rain, rain, and more rain. We ran off the plane with our scarfs wrapped around our heads to avoid getting soggy and although it was pouring, there was something really comforting about the rain. Hmmm home sweet home.

Because I’m so freakin’ smart, I took the following day off work… which was a damn good idea because I needed the rest. And another cocktail. At 2pm, I was downing a glass of water to get rid of my full blown afternoon buzz and strawberry tomato face. Oh the perks of being Asian {and of knowing how to use Photoshop}.

{ Mickey Mouse shirt? Uh yea, I’m still on vacation. }

We decided to use Allegiant Airlines for our trip, which flies out of Bellingham, WA over to LA. Since we needed to drive to the Canadian-US border, wait in line, get interrogated by border patrol before being released to flee to the airport, we needed to leave a few hours ahead of time. And because the last time we didn’t, we missed our flight to Vegas. Fail.

This time, somehow along the way, we managed to @#$% it up again. We ended up getting to the airport 30 minutes before the flight — latest check in time: 45 minutes prior. We literally raced into the airport only to stand in a freaking line while waiting for 2 slooooww motion parties to check in. Holy @#$%ing shit I thought I was going to have a heart attack!!! If I did, how would I ever… *c r o a k * … blog again??!

It was finally our turn to check in and the bitter agent proceeded to remind us how LATE we were. Yes, I @#$%ing know check-in is at least 45 mins before the flight. Why the @#$% do you think I’m @#$%ing panicking so much??? So can we get on? Yes. Oh, but I don’t know about your check-in luggage. It may or may not make it on to the plane. WTF? So how are WE going to get on the plane, but the luggage isn’t? This is a freakishly small airline. I can SEE the plane sitting there, 10 feet away. Just let me do it myself, Useless.

Not taking any chances, we decided to toss the check-in luggage. I ripped open my carry-on and stuffed as much of C’s clothes in as I could. The rest? Stuffed it into a large Gucci dust bag. We raced to the security check, each with 2 purses thrown over our shoulders, a mini carry-on ungracefully dragging behind, clothes hanging off anything that you could hang clothes off of, and hugging an over sized potato sack, A designer potato sack.

We’re going to Los Angeles, bitch. Brody Jenner is waiting for us and you, your measly airline, or time can’t stop us. Mooo cha cha cha cha!!!

XO,

PS. It was fun. You think I’d leaving you hanging like that? To be continued…

Or should I say, Birthday RABBIT?

Nah. I’m never growing up. Besides, Bunnie sounds so much cuter than hey, Rabbit!

♥ november 1st

Okay so my birthday passed almost 2 weeks ago but I’ve been… too lazy so busy with everything. I’m sorry but I’m really important ya know? ;)

. . .

I visited Sephora to get my set of {free} birthday lipglosses. I love free! And of course, I picked up a little this and a little that as well… although I promised myself I wouldn’t spend before my trip to LA. Oops, I did it again.

It’s tough not to spend when you see something you really want, but why not treat yourself now and then? Sure, something like a Seventy-seven Diamonds order or a new hairstyle is a big treat, but if you’re not due on holiday anytime soon, there’s no reason to scrimp and save like there’s no tomorrow….

Oh well, what the hell. It’s my birthday!

Double sided eye brightening stick in gold - one side for your eye’s inner corner, the other for the outer. Use the frosted side (right) on the inner corners for instant brightness, and the matte side (left) on the outer corner for an instant lift. The matte is also great for lining the bottom of the eye!

. . .

Thank you for loving me.

One of the best parts of it being your birthday is all the things you get that you don’t become broke from. I promise I will love you back when it’s your birthday.

Love this. Sentimental. Sweet. Forever.
So much that I teared.

SURPRISE! Birthday Brunch
I had no idea where I was being kidnapped to….
I got spoiled on BunnieDay.

Definitely the best birthday I’ve had. :)
I guess it’s not my birthday…. anymore. It’s my birth MONTH!

♥ Everyday should be a BunnieDay…

XO,

*Due to the unfortunate event that I am broke, I am unable to afford an SLR camera. All photos were taken using my BlackBerry, whom I love. {Whom. Not what. But. Whom.} Thus, all colors may not be accurate representations of real life. If you don’t like it, then buy me an SLR. Lastly, BunnieBar.com will not be held responsible for purchases made based on the information found in this post. If you find that you look like a gremlin or an ugly clown, haha! I’m sorry.

In just T-6 days, C & I are going to be heading down to

Los Angeles

Okay, so I’ve never been there before {except to Disneyland when I was 9… which doesn’t count} so I’m SUPER excited! We’ll be leaving on Nov.13 and staying for only 4 days and 3 nights. Wish we could have made the trip longer, but unfortunately, in order to afford to go on a trip {and shop… and pay for the massive bill that will result from it}, we need to go back to something called WORK. Wah wah!

Since we have absolutely NO idea where to go or what to do, we did a bit of research and found some places we’d like to visit – Hollywood, Melrose, Rodeo Drive, Universal Studios… umm and then it stops there.

Okay I lied. We know exactly what we want to do. We’re going to eat until our tummies explode into Bunnie bits and shop until we’re so broke we can’t afford to come back home or buy another meal. Wow I think I just killed myself. :)

{ C & I in Vegas; July 09 }

Anyways… I’m sure there are some LA must sees and hot-spots that we don’t know about. So, I need your help.

We want to go shopping, eat at yummy restaurants and explore the city – all within 4 days. Not much time, I know. {We don’t even have time for DisneyLand!} I know some of you have been to LA and others of you live there.. *wink.

Recommendations for Bunnie, anybunny?

Greatly appreciated. Loves you :)

XO,

halloween. A day where kids look cute, males look horrendous and females have an excuse to be provocative. And others… hand out candy. With a week and a half left to go, I hope you guys have your costumes ready and weekends planned out!

Okay, so maybe Halloween is a bit overrated, much like NYE. But nonetheless I thoroughly enjoy the occasion { after being completely stressed over what I’m going to dress up as and finding somewhere to go. Did I mention it’s my birthday the very next day. Yay, more stressful planning }.

So in anticipation of this overrated fun occasion, I thought I’d write a ‘pre-Halloween’ post to get us all in the Halloween spirit { is there such thing?}… and because I’m at a loss of what to blog about.

{circa 2007}

My first time carving a pumpkin on my own! Gotta love the goo.

5 mins later… I have to poke holes EVERYWHERE?!
Ugh what did I get myself into??

The end result. Not bad, huh?
Never again. I’m way too impatient for this.

BTW, pictures from 2 years back? Shudder.

* * * * *

On another note, some of you have asked me,

Bunnie, are you going to be a bunny for Halloween??
Huk huk huk.

I know it sounds fitting, but the answer is no. Why? Because I’ve done it before. Twice. In a row. I’m SO over the whole boring Halloween costume thing. I’ve done it way too much…

Pink Bunny.
Black Bunny.
Uhh School teacher/Receptionist/Secretary/Librarian.
‘Sexy’ Nurse.
Oh how I’ve grown.
See what I mean?

I’m b-o-r-i-n-g.
Mainly because I’m too lazy to think of something un-boring to be.

However… last year, my BFFs and I decided to put our thinking caps on and come up with something “original.” Okay, so it’s not completely original, hence the quotations, but hey, it’s an improvement don’t cha think?

♥ Inspiration: America’s Next Top Model Cycle 9 flower photoshoot.

“Are you Eve? Because my name is Adam…”
Seriously, I’m not kidding.

We’ve got something partially creative lined up this year, but we will be missing a team member :(

Stay tuned…

So what’s your get-up this year?

XO,

1. I have an addiction to my Blackberry. I can’t live without it and I won’t. If I’m out with you and I forgot my phone, I’m probably having the worst time of my life. However, I am also gifted. I have the ability to be engaged in more than 1 conversation at a time, so if you’re talking to me and I’m on my phone, don’t worry. I’m {pretend} listening.

 

2. I cry in movies REALLY easily and I’m embarrassed about it. If you’re watching a movie with me and we’re at a remotely touching or sad scene, don’t look at me. If you peep from the corner of your eye, you can probably catch me performing actions that look like I’m scratching my eye, or fixing my makeup. I’m actually trying to wipe away my tears without you knowing.

 

3. I love massages with a passion. Back massages, scalp massages, neck massages, hand massages, foot massages. Give me a massage and I will love you forever, and then you’ll hate me and wish you never started.

 

4. I LOVE things that (I think) are cute. LOVE LOVE LOVE. When I see something cute, my shoulders rise towards my ears, my hands clasp together before my chest, I smile like a little kid and I squeal. EEEEEE!

 

5. I completed school with a Bachelor’s of Science, specializing in Cell Biology and Genetics. Why? Because I thought wanted to go to med school. Now I’m doing Internet marketing.

 

6. I have 2 different voices. The one I use when my mood is normal, and the one I use when I’m really happy. One, I sound like an adult, a professional. The other, I sound like I’m 12. {And there’s another one that sounds really angry sometimes.}

 

7. When I was 5, my mom put me in Chinese school, ballet and piano. I stayed in each for 10 years. I’ve also tried gymnastics, vocal lessons and Star Search.

 

8. I have a Bunny named Floppy. He’s fat.

 

9. I had a ‘Blankie’ made of red silk that I kept under my pillow when I was little. I called it my ‘jeet jeet’ and I would rub it between my fingers until I fell asleep. It’s still under my pillow.

 

10. When I was 14, I loved to play The Sims. At night, I would turn off all the lights, cover the crack under my door with my blanket and play till 5am. I even downloaded add-ons and cheats online.

 

11. I LOVE to eat. You can tell I’m really enjoying my food when I make noises.. mmmm! Mmmm!! MMMM!!! Food makes me extremely happy. The way to a Bunnie’s heart is through her tummy!

 

12. Yes, I love to eat, but I DETEST raw carrots. You heard me. You bite into it and it’s like BAM! And then what…? And then… EWWW!

 

13. I’ve always been a thoughtful person. When I was 5, I poured my Aunt’s perfume down the toilet to make it smell good. And then I got in trouble. You have to admit, it was pretty creative.

 

14. Ig I’m talking to yo u and I tyupe luikje this its safe to assumnre tyhayt I’m drtiving.

 

15. I worked as a companion caregiver for a woman who had Rett Syndrome. It was by far the most difficult job I have ever had, but it was also one of the most rewarding as well. It was a great life experience.

 

16. If you see me slouch and pout, it means I’m hungry. Feed me!! : (



 

17. When I was 7, I stole sparkly heart stickers from Tom Lee Music. I was a thief.

 

18. I get very distressed when I’m forced outside of my comfort zone… even when it’s good for me. I’ll complain, I’ll whine and I’ll search for someone to comfort me, but in the end it always turns out to be a great thing.

 

19. I’m an only child and I get in trouble for everything! Even if I’m not home, even if it has nothing to do with me and especially if it wasn’t me. If you come over, please be mindful of what you do, what you touch, and where you put it afterwards… or I’ll get in trouble!

 

20. I have no patience or tolerance for stupid people. On the other hand, I greatly appreciate and enjoy the company of those who can share with me, teach me things and add value to my life. If you’re stupid, leave now.

 

21. During a 5 day business building clinic at work, I was required to create a website. I haven’t touched my site for months and just recently, I made my first sale without even having a product! No, you don’t get to know what it is.

 

22. I love anything to do with making things pretty. I love art. Graphic design, interior design, scrapbooking, jewellery making, fashion… you name it, I love it.

 

23. I read Twilight and fell in love with Edward Cullen. I was genuinely sad for a week when he left Bella. I was even more sad and heartbroken when I realized that he doesn’t really exist. I really, really wish that he existed. I love him. I’m so pathetic.

 

24. Every birthday, I blow out my candles and make a wish. I’ve been wishing for the same thing every year for as long as I can remember.

 

25. I used to talk on the phone with my elementary school best friend a lot while pacing around and doing multiple things around my room. One time, I was hanging and swinging from the top of my bathtub frame while balancing the phone between my head and shoulders. The phone dropped. I dropped. I took out a huge chunk of meat from my right knee and dented the metal bar at the bottom of my tub. I never told my parents. I probably should have gotten stitches. My first battle scar.

Now you know me, but you don’t.

XO Bunnie.
