pippa middleton's dress

When the royal wedding was all over the news, I was all just interested in the fashion. I was anxious about Kate Middleton's dress like every tabloid was, but when her dress finally came out, I was more intrigued by her younger sister's bridesmaid dress than the bride's. I just loved her Sarah Burton cowl neck dress, esp how cowl neck just drops down w/o showing too much cleavage, and the dress just hugging her body and smoothing over her curves.

And then she made headlines again w/ this Alice Temperley's evening dress. It's GREEN, SILKY & BACKLESS! i am just loving her style choices!

i just love it when ppl know how to wear green and make it look beautiful, but of course she is royalty who can afford it

random shopping

this post isn't about anything really happening in my life but more like what i've found to like while shopping. sorry for the bad pics cuz i took it w/ my phone cam...

uniqlo's shiny black jacket = my forsaken baby

I was at UNIQLO last month and I saw this GORGEOUS shiny black jacket that felt like it was tailored for me like everything fit so well and i just couldn't stop touching and smoothing over every part of the fabric. it just felt so nice on me. and i was surprised it still had any left for my size and then I knew why, this damn thing cost $150 T_T i really considered getting it so i just stood in the fitting room in that jacket for another 5 mins pondering over it but i ended up not buying it cuz i already had a somewhat similar uniqlo jacket but in a navy colored blazer. this black jacket would have been such a nice spring rain coat >.< sighhhhhhhhhhhhhh i still miss it.

uniqlo's wireless bras!!! but still too big for me

and i've nvr seen such a huge line of wireless bras! i love wireless...well that's b/c i don't need the wire support but i'm glad uniqlo has such a large collection cuz current american stores just have too small a selection

99 cent pizza slice in PAPA JOHN'S
in midtown that price is like...aMaZing!

got this Mocha-coconut frap during the Starbucks Happy Hour thing
it tasted pretty good, except i still prefer their green tea frap

I was in chinatown for a doc's appt and  I checked in Taipan for a snack while I waited for the ppl to call me in. I really liked the small ice in Taipan's milk tea, something I much prefer over the regular big ice cubes, and when I was paying my $2.75 drink, my eyes sweeped over something green and it was a Green Tea custard and i had to give it a try. after the green tea frap, i've just been a lil curious (almost obsessed) over anything w/ green tea. it was cold by the time i ate it, but i didn't mind in that summery weather and i really liked it. it wasn't anything stellar, but a good summery chinese snack =D

I had a coupon for colgate toothpaste at Target, but of course I got distracted by their sunglasses and beauty sections. I ended up walking out w/ a new pair of shades (which i've been meaning to get anyways, but this one was so much more pricier $17 compared to my old $4 pair) and a new nail polish (Milani's fresh teal) that has the same shade that i recently had on from one of jasmine's collection (China Glaze's custom kicks)

yaaaayyyy i finally found and bought the green nail polish that i saw on this girl’s toesies on the subway. can’t wait to slap it on my nails ;) but not really loving the dramatic name, i rather call it leafy green

♥ ♥ ♥ EMMA WATSON ♥ ♥ ♥

I am LOVING Emma Watson's new pixie/twiggy/elfen hair cut! I've always admired her transformation from the young frizzy Hermione to the mature and urban chic Emma that she is now. I've always wanted a pixie haircut and seeing how good she looks in it makes me want it even MORE. But am I confident enough to pull it off?

1st day at Cold Spring Harbor Lab

CSHL wanted me to come in at 8:30 am to go thru the paperwork. But this meant that I had to wake up at 4 am and get out the door by 5 to make the 5:51am train to Syosset 0_0 I didn't have very good sleep last nite, prolly like 3 hrs max. But i got thru the morning w/o coffee but just some of my chinese breakfast =D

I get to Syosset and I wait half an hour for their first shuttle bus to arrive, and thank god they have this free shuttle cuz i would be paying a $9 taxi fare each day. I arrive at the HR building and 3 other ppl are there waiting already and I immediately knew they were gonna be my colleagues. And they were all white and from long island one guy, one blonde, and one brunette...=___= i don't know why but as soon as i realized that I was going to work with this group, i ..just thought to myself, "what did i get myself into?" there must be some real disconnection betw me and white ppl cuz i nvr hit it off with that race compared to other ethnicities. They just talked about stuff that I was not interested in and i get this feeling like they look at me and think i'm a shy, quiet, boring girl. and they're all taller than me and own a car too >_> but there is one other girl coming in and she is from the city but from the sound of her name, i think she's just gonna act like the rest of the group. i already sense that the brunette likes the only guy in the group cuz there seems to be some chemistry going on and the blonde girl is just laughing to w/e they say ~_~

and to create further chasm, I am placed in charge of the lab that is the furthest away and most difficult to get to cuz there's a mountain of stairs to climb up to get to it.

but the campus is very nice to be at and look at. my supervisors are great and understanding ppl. they're changing the start time to 9:30am tmr so i can sleep in for another hour (HALLELUJAH)
so i'm prolly just having trouble dealing w/ my disconnect from the rest of the group and i'll just end up doing all the work w/ no help from them.

i got out of work at 3:30 pm, which was nice and when I got back to Atlantic Terminal, i could not resist stopping by starbucks to get myself a green tea frappe <<===i think i'm addicted to this drink (i think about it constantly)

last day working at NYU

So today was my last day working as a project coordinator at NYU School of Dentistry. I def felt that I'm-gonna-miss-you thing, but only for a few minutes. But there was a guy that I've been noticing pass by the area where I specifically work lately and I was actually on the look out for him today cuz I wanted to see him one last time lols i know... He's asian (korean too maybe), tall, and most importantly cute and nice. And I was lucky enuff to see him one last time today, but only as he was coming out of the door. We made eye contact but only for a split second and i practically swooned. I don't know but my hormones have got me more excited than usual these days. I hope I was smiling and made some impression on him cuz last week, some random guy who passed by me said to me "You have a very pretty smile." Maybe it was b/c he was cute too but my soul practically almost left me before i remembered to thank his compliment.

This is the closest image I found on google that has some resemblance to the mystery guy but he was more fleshier on the face and had smaller eyes that makes him look cute rather than the handsome features seen below on Choi Si Won. I didn't even know it was Choi Si Won's pic until I hovered over it. I guess that's the kind of azn face i like.
