Thanks to VancityBuzz and Patrick Leung for doing an “Around Town with Bunnie Bar” feature on me yesterday! Pat and I made a trip over to Lonsdale Quay last week, and although it was raining, it was a lot of fun! And cold.

Now for the even more exciting news… I quit my job and am running away to Asia to hide there until someone finds me and forces me to come back! Just kidding. Well, kind of. I did resign from my work, mainly because I felt like it was time for a change and because the time off I need is… too long.

I’m going to Taipei for 5 weeks. And I’m excited and nervous. The last time I went to Asia was 20 years ago, when I was 5. And since then, I haven’t really been much of an avid traveler, although I would love to be able to see more of the world. I also haven’t gone on a vacation that lasted longer than a week. Meaning that I haven’t been away from home, from family, from everything for…. more than a week. Just a month ago, I didn’t even have any idea when I’d visit Asia, if ever.

I made a vow to myself that I wouldn’t look back on this year and wish I did. So I’m trying to make a change. Create excitement. Take on challenges. And I stared with a comprehensive list of goals and resolutions at the beginning of the year. It’s hopping so far, and I hope it’ll only get better!

Of course, I’ll be updating you guys with whatever I’m doing while I’m away, so stay with me! BTW, any recommendations on things to do / eat /see while I’m there?

XO,

you give me low self-esteem

I suddenly had the urge to revive this fedora… after owning it for about 2 years and probably only wearing it once. I think I’ve worn it 4 times in the past month. That’s record breaking. I have an un-surfaced attraction to all sorts of hats and headpieces. Sometimes, I end up buying them. And when I do, they end up collecting dust in my closet. I haven’t gotten quite comfortable with wearing something on my head. I feel kind of silly. And it makes me feel kind of self conscious. Like the feeling I get when wearing glasses. That shit lowers my self-esteem. Ten fold. Even if you think I “look good in them.” Now sunglasses…. that’s a different story. Are you a hat person?

XO,

forever pink

I went through a period where I was obsessed with colored or patterned pants. Although I really love the J Brand waxed denims, I don’t own a pair… yet. I’m not sure if I can justify spending $200+ on a trend, although I would probably be able to wear them forever more, depending on the color. I did manage to find a pair of pink pants at Urban Outfitters during the holidays though. For $19.99. I don’t mean to toot my own horn (that was a lie) but I’m a @#$%ing awesome shopper, sometimes. I’m seeing a lot of pastels rolling in for Spring and I’d love a pair of denim in mint green, lavender or creamsicle. Forever 21 seems to have some, but the quality and fit is always a hit or miss for me. Have you guys seen pastel denims elsewhere?

This is me “running my hands through my hair.” Gawd, I’m sexy.

XO,

Acid wash jeans remind me of cows. And cows go moo.

I feel like crème brûlée

The pants make me look like I have a super long torso and a giant bladder. Hot.

They’re super comfy though!
