These Cajun fries with shrimp was absolutely delicious! The fries weren't too salty and the lemon seriously complimented it so well. The outside of the shrimp was also crunchy, but still soft and fluffy on the inside!

The lobster bisque was good as well. Although, it was a bit saltier than I expected it to be. I'm not a big fan of lobster, but this was actually done pretty well!



It was interesting watching the meat cook on the grill. At this particular KBBQ restaurant, they cook the meat for you. The server that cooked our meat was very intense! He was so skilled and pretty much dictated when we could eat the meat vs when the meat was not ready.

This kimchi tofu soup was delicious! It was one of the few items on the menu that I could actually eat. I sort of wish there was more kimchi in it though!

On the left is my eggling and on the right is my sister's! Although the packaging looks similar, we have different flowers. I planted daisies and she planted petunias! Of course, we could've just planted these flowers and left them out to grow. However, we decided to add a more personal touch and name our plants!

I named my flower "Danger Daisy" and Christie named her's "Petunia Picklebottom". I know, Danger Daisy kind of sounds like some edgy scene kid's Myspace user name from 2007. I am also aware the Petunia Picklebottom is the name of a brand, but aren't alliterations fun :]?

I really hope we did this right! We followed the instructions carefully, however, I have never been much of a green thumb. None of plants that I've tried to grow in the past have been successful. However, I am still remaining hopeful that at least something will sprout!

At first, I didn't know what kind of face to draw on my egg. I just wanted it to match with the name. So for Danger Daisy, I drew angry eyebrows, cute eyelashes, and vampire fangs. How fitting for danger! Christie drew happy carrot eyes and a bow tie on her egg. I feel like adding faces to the eggs makes them seem more personal? It doesn't feel like we just added trash to our open windowsill.

They now have personality to them!

These are the Adidas that I got! You can buy the shoes here: Nordstrom Adidas Extaball ! Let me first start off by saying how comfortable these shoes are! I've worn these shoes all day, walking around campus and my feet didn't feel sore or tired! I have tried many comfortable shoes in the past, but these Adidas are at the top when it comes to comfortability.

Looking through the online comments, most customers recommended sizing down. Usually, I wear a size 7½ shoe, but in cases such as sneakers or flats I can fit a size 7. With this fluctuation in mind, I'm always cautious when it comes to buying shoes. Since I was buying online from Nordstrom's, I decided to buy both a size 7 and 7½ to try on. I know this sounds like an extra unnecessary step, but having the correct fit is very important! This is specially true when buying shoes online! 

I tried on both pairs and found that the comments online were true! The shoe is extremely spacious, which I like! I decided on the size 7 shoe. My sister graciously returned the 7½ back to Nordstrom for me :]! 

Let me stress the importance of buying the correct shoe size! I've had disasters where I've bought a pair of shoes online that was too large. It was not a fun experience :(! Luckily, Nordstrom has a great return policy! It is definitely worth while to check a store's return policy before purchasing. Some stores don't offer online returns / refunds on certain items such as shoes. 

I am enjoying this clay mask! I apply it on to my face, wait for it to dry, and then remove it in the shower. It feels very therapeutic! I like that it doesn't take too long to dry and it is easy to remove. I have used clay masks in the past that stick really tightly to the skin causing irritation. However, this mask doesn't cause any irritation to my skin. Although being a clay mask, it isn't messy at all!

This product does have a few draw backs. It comes with a hygienic applicator stick (so you don't need to stick your fingers into the pot). However, I wish that the stick could've been a little bit smaller so it could fit inside of the jar. I have no where to keep the applicator and I worry about losing it. Also, the product smells like seaweed to me. Personally, I am not a big fan of anything that smells like the ocean. I am a bit sensitive to smells.

The Clarisonic comes with a charger, refreshing gel cleanser, and a traveling case. The charger is pretty cool! It's completely magnetic so you don't have to worry about any exposed charging ports.

I like the gel cleanser that comes with the package. It smells really fresh! It kind of reminds me of the cucumber lemon scented soap that some hotels have at their spa.

The carrying case is useful for travels! I place my Clarisonic in the case whenever I travel back home from university! It keeps it damage free when the brush is in my suitcase full of clothes!

I wear makeup everyday! I am also very adamant about taking off makeup at the end of the day. After wearing makeup for a good 9 years, I've gotten a good makeup removing routine down. I don't think there has ever been a day where I've slept in makeup. Just the thought of sleeping in makeup makes me feel uncomfortable!


This is a product that I recently purchased. I have pretty dry skin. I rubbed my face and it felt dull and lifeless. This is due to long time usage of acne face washes and acne medication. I did some researching online, and many people recommended this product. It comes in a cute pink bottle!

PROS:
-I like the consistency of the product: it feels rich and luxurious on the skin.
-A little bit of the product goes a long way: you don't need much to fully cover your face.
-The product applies smoothly on the skin
-Hydrates and reduces the appearance of "flaking" skin

CONS:
-Smells a little bit like craft glue
-Must dip finger into product: sanitary / bacteria concerns
-Can feel a little bit oily
