Sunny Sanna visits Champaign!
We went to Arthur, IL to say hello to the Amish… and then to Chicago to see the Bean!
Seven Deadly Sins
Still life project for photo class. Can you identify all of them?
Robyn @ Canopy Club
So Robyn, Sweden’s hottest pop star, swung by Chambana and gave a really awesome show. Great songs, cool dancing, and amazing lighting! Ahhhh. I’m swooning!
Anyway, it was the first concert I went to with my new camera, so I went to town!

Amazing "Winged" Friends!
Once upon a time…
splash!
I’ve always wanted to shoot a couple splash photos! Without any setup at all, all you need is a an amazing assistant (even better, if named Kristen) to drop the lemon, lime, kiwi, egg or whatever you are splashing (coffee, water, wine) into a glass and a camera with a high shutter speed. I would stick to a shutter speed faster than 1/250, the faster the better.

Out and About on a Cold Sunny Sunday
For my photo class, I had to shoot a couple scenes with different exposures and with different lenses. I decided to do this at the cemetery on campus, and will post these photos if I feel like it later :)
However, while Christine and I were out, I experimented and took some other shots at the Japan House. Here they are!
Girls Makeup Night In
What is foundation primer? What is a highlighter? I’ve actually never knew or heard of all these gobbly gook mambo jambo before. But when you get a couple experts, some youtube videos, cheesy pizzas all together … things all make perfect sense! Thank you Peggy & Christine for enlightening us!
Give Thanks on Thursdays
International Night, BioE Happy Hour, and ECE drinking club…. all collide at one place & one time. That is at Murphy’s on Thursday nights.
And according to Fisher’s summon, it is the one day of the week where we can find peace and friends after a hard week of work. For me, it is also a great opportunity to people watch.
So here I will post some photos of people working...
Bar-hopping with baby alex!
Wining at Radio Maria
Sighted: Hot Bartender Booty at the Piglet
Yay! Bar-hopping with Baby Alex is so much fun :) He is such a happy photogenic baby!
Look! He is so lovable…
He even loves beer! <3
Rubik's Cube Party
Party Idea!
Concept: Dress in at least 6 different Rubik Cube colors. Solve yourself at least once by the end of the night so that you match completely. Sounds awesome, right? Thank you, Kat Kim for such a great party!
So it happened like this…

10 Life-Enhancing Things You Can Do in Ten Minutes... →
Though a little self-helpish….doing little extra small things can’t hurt :P
1. Watch “The Last Lecture” by Randy Pausch. See it online at www.Oprah.com . This is a deeply moving segment that may be the best ten minutes you’ve ever invested in front of a computer.
2. Spend a little while watching the sunset with your mate. Nothing extra is necessary. Just sit and take in...
Live simply and sincerely.
A song to close out the 2010 year...
LCD Soundsystem - Home
Happy New Year! As I am spending NYE home with my family, I find this song very appropriate. In the album, This is Happening, LCD Soundsystem is mostly just one guy, James Murphy, who sings and plays all the instruments himself! Every song is absolutely great. It was really a toss up between the all popular All I Want and Home which one to play today. As the last track on...
mall time!
Today, I went to Stanford Shopping Center with Carrie. Check out this new mural! Isn’t it pretty?
Here is Carrie in her summer dress from Brazil.
There were so many after-Christmas sales - it was a little overwhelming! Despite that, I think we did pretty well… I picked up a couple really cute things! We had dessert and coffee as a break from shopping. The cheesecake although tiny...
