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.
Here goes:

(500) Days of Summer
After Niko’s suggestion this summer, I finally watched it. This movie has a cute timeline and was beautifully shot. I loveeeed the way it used color. Anyway, I liked it. It’s not a love story… and definitely not your typical chick flick. My favorite quote from it all…
“I woke up one morning and I just knew. What I was never sure of with you…” - Summer
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!

Those Dancing Days - I’ll Be Yours
Since I’ve been feeling very Svensk-y recently, I have a happy-go-lucky pop song for you. Those Dancing Days are five girls from the ‘burbs of Stockholm debuting in 2008. Blogger Dots and Dashes could not have not put it any better.
“Chorus pedal euphoria reminiscent of puking off the side of the ferris wheel to the synth-stained melancholy of The Cure’s earlier forays into the depths of misery, Swedish femme fatale heartthrobs Those Dancing Days return with I’ll Be Yours, lifted from sophomore effort Daydreams & Nightmares.”
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 & then people playing :). It’s like a double entry!
I’m thankful for my active lifestyle. Work hard and then play hard the same evening. It is awesome!

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…
