My flight back today was canceled due to foggy conditions in Chicago.. What the hell is going on over there?
On the bright side, this meant that I didn’t have to go to the airport by 5:30am and now I can attempt to do something I’ve never been able to do before: Try to check in exactly 24 hours before my flight departure time and thus be A1 (Southwest riders will understand what...
coffeemochi:
C bought me Garrett’s Popcorn today after an evening out in the city. (Exchange gifts and wedding registry)
I don’t think I’ve ever tried it before and didn’t know what all the big fuss was about. (He basically made us run there to make sure they weren’t closed)
Now I know.
And you know you’ve got a keeper when he doesn’t think you’re weird for eating...

Grinch stole my teeth.
It’s been confirmed. In just a few hours I’ll be heading to the oral surgeon and getting two wisdom teeth yanked from my mouth.
One of these little bastards are fully impacted and tilting back a little so it’s expected that this particular extraction may be a little complicated. The other one should be a sinch.

My parents recently relocated to D.C. and started a little convenience store/dry cleaners located in the middle of a few apartment buildings whose residents consists mostly of rich college students/graduates and yuppie professionals.
While making a list of inventory and trying to figure out what they need to buy for the store, my dad asked me:
“Jessica, why do young women buy so many...
I need a Christmas miracle..
@#$% my mouth still hurts. I’ve book an appointment for Monday but I’m not sure if I’ll make it until then. I need to eat real food. I need to eat real Korean food because THAT’S what visiting your parents and grandma is supposed to be all about! Especially when your grandmother is a retired chef and your mom is known to move souls with just her cooking..

Check out this photo my sister took. Does it not look like a freakin painting? Home girl knows her lighting..
There was a time when my parents were so concerned with my sister’s future. She wasn’t the typical Korean American kid interested at all in pursuing the typical Korean path where your life would inevitably end up in a white...
And no, in the photo below that is not my hair. It is fake fur that I am wearing on top of my head. Why? Because I have an abnormal affinity for obnoxious looking hats.

How a night out should always look like.
My friend A invited me to the VIP Nordstrom event. I’m not too big on shopping but I figured, free booze and free snacks, eh…
well, I got wasted.
I mean really really wasted. Like, I unabashedly spilled my drink while looking through the Burberry perfumes wasted then pretended like it wasn’t me wasted.
It was one of the best nights of my life. So much so that I think I may...
