New Love: Baby Nephew

Brought my brother-in-law some coffee at 10AM.

On the morning of April 27, 2013, my sister welcomed a beautiful and healthy baby boy at the Peter Lougheed Centre in Calgary, AB, Canada. We are so blessed to have this wonderful addition into our family. I love this little guy more and more each day. *muah*

My 1st Brazilian Wax Experience


I always wanted to try this type of hair removal for my lady parts for years but never had the courage to. I remember going to those hole-in-the-wall salons, which are normally run by Vietnamese ladies, for manicure and i would hear screams from the room down the hall from someone getting their bikini waxed. I know that because the lady doing my nails told me... which by the way don’t know that i’m Vietnamese also. Their screams would always make me think that waxing South is very painful. I was wrong.

Since i’ll be going on vacation this summer, i decided to make an appointment for a Brazilian wax with Frilly Lilly after following the company on Twitter and viewing their website. I chose their Mission location because it was the most accessible location for me. So on their website, they offer 4 types of “down-there” waxing, all at (surprisingly) affordable prices. I chose their “The Brazilian: Nothing’s Left... That’s Right, Nothing” for $68.

Time for my appointment. As for any appointment that you make, it is polite to arrive 10-15 minutes prior to your schedule appointment. It’s just common courtesy. As i walked into Frilly Lilly, the place looked like it jumped out of Pinterest! Everything was so girly and dainty yet had a French tea house feel to it. The colors and their product all set out nicely throughout the whole place. I totally wanted to be Asian about it and whip out my camera to take some pictures but i was already nervous about my appointment... since it was my first time and all.

After a quick glance of Frilly Lilly, i was greeted by the guy standing behind computer (didn't  catch his name) and Erin, who i had the appointment with. Erin then lead me to a room and gave me instructions... i wouldn't go into details but as i was so nervous, she was very understanding. For me, the Brazilian wax DIDN'T HURT AT ALL! It was quite painless and there was no screaming from me, maybe a few filches here and there. Oh and when they mean “Nothing’s Left... That’s Right, Nothing” they really do mean NOTHING LEFT. Hahahahaha.

Now let me tell you about the wax they use, some amazing product. They don’t even need wax strips. The wax just goes on and once it cools on the skin, the wax itself becomes a “wax strip.”

I would totally, 100%, recommend Frilly Lilly for your waxing needs. Seriously their prices are very decent and they provide out waxing services as well. Check them out at www.frillylilly.ca to see if there is one in your area.

P.S: Here are some pictures i had managed to take. :-P Enjoy.

Happy 1st Birthday Giuliana

It was one of my good friends, Peter & Jessika's daughter 1st birthday yesterday. I can't believe that she is 1 already... and that she can walk. I meant i have seen pictures and videos of her but to actually see her walk, it's pretty amazing.

Dress came with a hanger, couldn't find a gift bag to fit it so i improvised.
What the ALDO box looked like after.
Yup. She just threw her present on the floor. Lmao.
These 2 rockstars were pooped... taking a nap anywhere. Hahaha.

Sushi Date: 04/03/2013

I don't know why i've been craving sushi so much this past week... it's probably because they are so yummy. I haven't been to Red Ember since my birthday back in February, so i thought we should venture through rush hour traffic to fulfill my sushi craving. Sushi is always perfect here and it's the only place that serve salmon tempura, one of my favorite dishes here. At the moment, they are having a promotion that if you pay cash, you get 10% off. :-)
