Wow. Is this really happening? Am I actually blogging after 3 months of not blogging? Yeah, I am. Do you like it?

It’s funny. I remember a few months earlier, around the 3 year birthday of my bloggy bar, I thought to myself. Holy shit, I’ve been blogging for 3 years. That’s quite an accomplishment isn’t it? I wonder when I’ll stop. If I ever stop. And then I stopped. But in my last post, I also blatantly said that I wouldn’t apologize for my absence again, nor would I promise to try harder. Good thing I didn’t, because I would have definitely disappointed all the readers who no longer read my blog anymore.

I also panicked for a second when I was asked to enter in my password. I thought I forgot, but then I remembered that I was smart and smart people don’t forget. So here I am. Then I actually saw my blog. Oh god, is that what it looks like??

Anyways, I have been wanting to post something for a while now… but I never got around to it. You know, life just happens. But what actually drove me to do it was some “homework” I had for this week from a leadership training session – to do something different everyday for one week. It’s hard, but it can also be rewarding. You should try it. So here’s one of mine. Hope I made you proud.

BTW, if you’re curious about my well-being or just nosy, I may get around to filling you in on what I’ve been up to in the next post. But who knows when that’ll be. Other than that, I just realized that I’m wearing the same shoes in this post as the last. These photos were also from like, 3 months ago. It’s obviously winter now. Obviously.

I’m surprised that it’s been relatively nice in Vancouver since I returned from the east. I was a bit excited to come home to some cooler weather, but instead, I was greeted with more heat… which I’m not complaining about. Besides, it was an opportunity to wear clothes that only get to see the light, 2 months out of a year.

I’ve been really into conspicuous things lately — bright bolds, blinding neons, fancy pants, and… that’s all I can think of right now. I really love how this outfit turned out (especially in the photos) with the rich blue denim jacket, contrasting orange and pops of yellow and green vegetation. It’s so bright and cheery. What all of June, July and August should really be like!

I can’t believe it’s almost the end of July and I haven’t even gone to the beach yet! I have been learning how to drive a standard car though. And I’m pretty damn good at it. Except for stalling once in the middle of a left turn. And not making it over a small speed bump. Point is, I have a lot of summer to do still. How’s yours coming along? Or are you procrastinating too?

Shopping finds and pretty pieces in Montreal & NYC. I apologize for the crappy pictures. As you may have noticed, I am using my iPhone and a mirror photos because I have 0 cameras right now. Zip. Nada. None.

Don’t think less of me. I’m still awesome.

Yes, I really did post that last picture of myself, and captioned it with “huk huk huk.” There are a few things going on here. I was 1) making it difficult for the photographer to take a nice photo 2) giving the photographer opportunities to blackmail me 3) secretly working on my abs 4) avoiding the crawling ants on the log 5) pretending to be a flipped over cockroach. At one point, I might have started riding an air bicycle too.

Anyways, what I really wanted to say before I got sidetracked was that this neon yellow clutch was a pretty good purchase. It makes the outfit. Just picture this: same outfit, same accessories, nude bag. Boring. Black bag. F*ck. Blue bag. Alright. Neon bag. AW, shit! Am I right?

BTW, I’m super excited to be….. STARTING MANDARIN CLASS THIS WEDNESDAY! Emma and I are going to nǐ hǎo you so well you’re going to be freaking amazed. 對吗?

And I’m also super excited to be….. GOING TO MONTREAL AND NY THIS WEEK! For the first time, EVER. Hell yeah. How jealous are you? Humor me and say very. Thanks.
