I remember the first time I heard about this laptop with three 4K displays. It made headlines because the prototype was stolen at a press conference. This time around, the laptop was showcased behind a thick glass case. Honestly, it looked really cool even from behind the glass. Of course, having a laptop with three screens seems a bit ridiculous. Can you imagine carrying this around with you? Nonetheless, the lighting and color on this laptop was very vibrant! It must be very fun to play games on this laptop with so many screens. It slightly gives off the "I'm doing too much" vibe, but it does seem cool though!

Of course, I must say that I am no tech reviewer. If you want more information on the laptop itself, I've included a link up above and you can check it out for yourself!


A small Overwatch tournament occurred at the event. Basically, anyone could walk up to the laptops and play the game. At the end, I believe there were prizes that were given away for winning the tournament.

There was a small part of me that wanted to try playing Overwatch on these Razer laptops, but it was a bit intimidating. Everyone was watching and I've actually never played Overwatch before! I didn't want my first experience of Overwatch to be so intense. Perhaps if I were 20% braver, I just might have hopped on and played.

As previously mentioned, we were given a handful of raffle tickets. Razer held a small raffle at the event! The prizes that were given away ranged from a poster to Razer's Blackwidow Chroma V2 keyboard. I kept my fingers crossed that we would win something in the raffle, but luck was not on our side. We left the event empty handed.

Of course we didn't get upset over it! I think we were both happy to get free wine and burritos! I consider that to be a winning situation!

Thanks for being a trooper and standing in line with me, even though you don't play video games or own Razer hardware. You a true MVP!


So now that I showed you what happened at the Razer AFK event, I just wanted to share some of my personal experience with Razer's hardware! By the way, I just gotta put it out there that this is not a sponsored post. (LOL I wish right?) For more information on sponsored posts I have a page on advertisement and a separate page for contact information. Check it out!


I am currently using Razer's Blackwidow Chroma keyboard and Deathadder Chroma mouse. Yes, I already know what you are thinking before you say it because I've heard it a million times before. That is a 27in iMac. Yes, I use my Blackwidow Chroma with a Mac. Yes, I am aware that this keyboard is meant to be used for Windows.

I believe Razer used to have a version of the Blackwidow Chroma that was compatible with Mac. Unfortunately, I don't believe they make it anymore. You can still use Blackwidow Chroma with Mac. You just need to go into your keyboard settings and change up the function keys. Although a bit time consuming, it is not difficult at all! There are a lot of online tutorials that show you how you can do it!

So why the Blackwidow Chroma? Well back in the day, I used to play all of my games on this super tiny Mac keyboard that came with my computer. It works just fine to be honest, but the arrow keys were a bit small. I decided to go for something a little bit bigger and I wanted something that matched the Deathadder Chroma mouse that I got. The Blackwidow Chroma keyboard just seemed like the right choice so I decided to get it!

In case you were wondering, I got the stealth version of the keyboard (the orange switch)! It's supposed to be a little bit quieter than the Razer green switch. Although from all the Youtube videos that I've watched, I don't really hear much difference between the orange and green switch. I guess the green one sounds slightly more clicky than the orange one?

I didn't know this, but Razer now has a new yellow switch?? At the time I bought my keyboard, this wasn't an option. I'm not sure if I would've picked the yellow switch over the orange one though.

I really like this keyboard because of all the lighting effects! Coming up with new lighting effects is all part of the fun! You are given so many different options that you can literally create any color combination that you want. It takes a little getting used to, but with time you can seriously create some cool patterns and effects.

You are given up to 10 lighting profiles on the Razer synapse. If you run out of space, you can always export your lighting creations and re-upload them on to the synapse. I think it's cool that you can export your creations. It gives you the chance to share them with others as well! I've seen some really cool ones online.


Speaking of the Razer synapse, I must take the time to say that it can be quite terrible to use if you have really bad wifi. I also think it's kind of dumb that you need to be logged into the Razer synapse to access the Chroma Configurator. Out of everything, I think Razer's synapse gives a lot of people a hard time. Yes, your lighting effects still work if you aren't logged in. However, if you customized certain function keys on the keyboard, you need to be logged in for it work properly (which I think is so dumb :/)!

So the main reason I got the Deathadder Chroma was because for the longest time I was playing games using a trackpad. Oh man, those were some dark times. I have no idea how I made it through playing the beginning parts of SOMA with just a trackpad. It was such a bad time!

Eventually trackpad just wasn't cutting it anymore, I needed something more. So I stumbled across the Razer website and decided to try out the Deathadder Chroma.

Before I get into it, I should probably mention that I use a mouse pad with my mouse so people won't think I'm a monster LOL! My mouse pad just isn't shown in the photo above. I am seriously on the hunt for a new mouse pad though. I think the current mousepad that I'm using is interfering with my mouse? I'm not too sure.

Once again back with the Razer Synapse. I guess you can say that I set my mouse to a pretty high sensitivity and acceleration. Although, I had to tone down the acceleration because playing Tomb Raider with such high sensitivity gave me motion sickness! (LOL it was not a fun time) Luckily, you can have multiple profiles for you mouse. You can set it to any speed & acceleration (depending on the game you're playing) and switch back when you feel like it.

The first thing everyone always says when they use my computer for the first time is, "Your mouse moves too fast!" I never really noticed that mouse speed actually matters to people until I've used other people's computers and realized their mouse moves really slow. I guess I've always liked setting my mouse on a faster speed? I like the acceleration. You can move your mouse all the way to the other side of the screen in less than a second. It's awesome!

There isn't much lighting effects on the Deathadder Chroma (at least in the version that I have)! I currently just have in set on spectrum cycling. I was a bit sad to find out that the new Deathadder Elite has more lighting profiles!! I am mad jelly.

Other than the colors and mouse settings, there really isn't much else I can really say about the Deathadder Chroma. It's a mouse. It looks pretty cool. I don't have to play SOMA using a trackpad anymore LOL!


So far, I've had a lot of positive experiences with both the Blackwidow Chroma and Deathadder Chroma. Currently, I am on the hunt for a new mouse pad to use with the mouse. If you have any suggestions, let me know!

Also, thanks for the invite Razer! The event was pretty fun and the free food was awesome! Please invite us again in the future :]!

I'm starting a new blog category on this website called Food Adventures! For the longest time, I've been wanting to write about the places that I go to eat. Since I've secretly vowed to take my blog to the next level in 2017, I thought this would be the perfect time to start a new category!

First off, let me just say that I am in no way a food reviewer. (Let's be real, nobody really likes reading food review blogs. You might as well just look up Yelp reviews to save you time.) I just want to share my experiences with you and take some cool looking photos of food while I'm at it! So let's get started!

The first thing that popped into my head was American Horror Story: Hotel. With double staircases and gothic old Hollywood furnishings, it felt like I had been teleported into the Hotel Cortez. For those of you who have not watched American Horror Story, this is what the Hotel Cortez looks like:


Crown & Crumpet has an assortment of different teas listed on their menu. For this visit, we decided to try the Strawberry Field's tea. According to the website, this tea is a green tea steeped with vanilla and a hint of strawberry.



Crown & Crumpet tea parties are definitely unique! As my second time attending (You can read about our first adventure on Christie's blog here), I am still amazed at the hospitality and warmth of the experience. There aren't many events like it in SF at all. Yes, I must say that it is a bit of a pricey event. However, it is perfect for those days where you want to feel like royalty. You will definitely feel special and be treated well. So I must end by saying that this may not be my last visit to Crown & Crumpet. Perhaps in the future, I will go again :)!

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
