Walking on sunshine, CA


Hi guys! This is a post on my trip across California couple days after I've just arrived in Seattle from home. It was a trip my older brother, Melvin, suggested and wanted my Mom and I to join. I decided to split this trip into a few post just to give you all some details on the highlights of this trip. So expect some up coming post but maybe not in order as there are still so much I want to share as well. Okay here we go!

I've had always heard about Cali, she's fun, bright and all smiles. Despite the winter weather, Cali gave me the confidence to just bust out in a cotton sweater and jeans alone, no jacket. My only outfit regret is not having the option to walk in sneaks instead of my winter boots. It was like the place was giving me the freedom for more movement, more new outings. This was especially refreshing from the chilly bite in Seattle so obviously I took whatever chance I get to revel in my sun bathing days there. I noticed the small traces of spring. I smelled salty ocean air breezing by. The sound of waves crashing against each other flowed through me, washing away all anxieties as long as it was heard. Thinking back about it makes me yearn for it again. Plus with the new experience of how different things are here, this was the getaway I needed to just be surprised all over again and actually be pretty excited for what's next ever since finishing high school. The seals were just a pleasant sight to observe and they were all so adorable. Cali also reminded me in some ways of KK so it was so relaxing to kind of feel something familiar. The tropical trees and the warmth from the sun were remedies to my home sickness. Let the picture speak for themeselves! FYI no filters added and most of them are displaying us at La Holla (pronounced ya-hoy-ya) Cove and a lighthouse by the National Park Service.

Tune Favourites

Double posting yeah! Feeling pretty motivated so straight after my very recent post of my trip to La Holla, here is another post on some of the songs that got me feeling some good vibes for the past 2 months I've been in the US until even now. You all also get an idea on my kind of music which is pretty eclectic as some of those who I violated with my playlist over the radio would know. Along with what I think of the song as well as a bit of info on it, hope you guys check em' out and see if you like them! 1. Blank Space/ Style (Taylor Swift Mashup) by Louisa Wendorff & Devin Dawson This is my current on repeat song that I only discovered just couple days back and this song got 4 million views on youtube. Gaining these artists some attention from the media and compliments from Tay Swift herself! Also they got to attend the Grammy's today and sing this song on E!'s pre red carpet show. Nothing but soft classic yet original tunes and perfect harmony that ...

Tune Favourites

Hey guys. Just a quick correction from my previous post, its not mist, its a haze. Thanks to my ever loving brother for pointing it out. If there is something wrong with my post for me to check out, really feel free to comment on it! So as I said, lately its been a very laidback weather here and these are the songs that carried me through it. I might not be able to list all but just click here and you can find the rest on my SoundCloud. It's been awhile since the last Tune Favourite  and that means I've been listening a ton. 1. "Here" by Alessia Cara (Lucian Remix) This has been basically the soundtrack for my August and even now I can't but be so floored by this singer's voice. I discovered her from a youtuber I follow and never regretted the decision to subscribe to her Vevo channel. While the original is the stuff, I love how it was remix here and every decision made to create it is so spot on. Do check out her other singles like "I...

Updates

I've just finished trial exams and so here's me blog rejuvenating over the emotional tense I've been feeling for awhile by giving you guys a quick know how of my life so far. I can tell you there has been considerable selfies in my phone from my carpool gang which includes Cristy there. We go by names like "Dash Express" because the driver's name is really Dash and we have our reality show called "Keeping up with the Dash" in our snapchat and its basically just three girls who means the world to Dash ahaha. By the way, he treats us to pizza too. I helped out with my school Grad Night and even achieved arriving with my girls in individual jumpsuits. Coordination on point. I got to continue most of my jogging sessions with my other gal pals too. Went on a brief but a much needed vacay at Kudat. The beaches and salty breeze is definitely the perfect unwind for me any time. Palm trees were especially a thing for me as they now remind me of my short ...
