I have been in a bit of rut when it comes to my creating.

I decided that it was a much needed moment for.. 

SOLITUDE!

I spend time embracing myself and writing many notes to myself

My energy was so vamped up that I created 5 vision boards 

Here's some snap shots:

My Fitness Pal.. Weight Loss Journey

         Over the past few weeks, I have slowly emerging into my weight loss challenge. I have attempted over the summer to become a vegan but fell off the band wagon as school reappeared in my schedule...

 I.. well..lost my momentum.

But never fret about things..

My friend suggested a site (www.myfitnesspal.com) that he was using that is quiet helpful to my journey. 

I plan to blog periodically about my improvements and mishaps

Bubble Tea Experience Circa August 21, 2009

A few days ago, I decided to explore around the city. I was looking for something, really didn't know what but something! I jumped on the 1st bus in sight and took off!

Cincinnati is pretty interesting on the bus routes. You meet a lot interesting people, have random conversations, and maybe even learn how to make one can of salmon stretch to make 12 salmon croquettes.

After an hour of sight-seeing and taking notes from this elder about her salmon croquettes. *smile* I landed myself somewhere in Clifton. There I saw a sign for bubble tea!

I have seen the sign several times, each time I say to myself.. "Bubble tea! I need to try some bubble tea!"


I stepped inside of the cafe. It was very colorful, an artist dream environment for sketching and people watching. The cafe wasn't noise or crowded at all. The woman at the cashier greeted me with a warm smile. I proudly told her "May I have one small bubble tea?" She respond "Which flavor would you like?" pointing to a long yellow brick road list. I ponder for several minutes, then I requested mango.

In playful nature, I skipped out the cafe with my straw pinch between my lips and BAM.. I fell deeply in love.

The sweetness of the tea, milk and mango mixed with the caramel bubbles are quiet interesting but in a good way.

I can't wait to go back to try more flavors. I wanted to share with you my new treat.

p.s. I could have easily posted a pic but I love to be animated! LOL
