Hongkong No.1




Hello humans!


I am back again with the travel post :)
Today I'm presenting you guys my first half of the Hongkong island trip!




First of all of all of all.. 
This trip is a hella confusing trip to me, I was super blanked out of preparing stuffs.. which I'm super not like that.. I guess because I just finished the dance event so I got my energy pumped out




Starting up with the super blurry morning because I had to wake up 6am to catch the 8am flight.. 
Holy waaaaay too early to put on full make up so here well go with the hair tided and sunglasses.. 



This two things save my life always.




A little pose with my brother

Me:Topshop croptop, Zara black tight, converse, Balenciaga biker bag
Brother: A Bathing Ape jacket, bally cross body bag




One thing about flying: I always wear my favourite Zara tight.



It's super comfortable for sitting any kind of pose you find comfortable on a plane.
Highly recommend it!



Here comes another thing about flying: Entertainment!

I've been a fan of John Green lately..
Like a biiiiig big fan. First John Green's book I read was The Fault in Our Stars and ever since I bought all his works and trying to read them all. I love his style of writing a lot!



So this is my choice of this trip



John Green's Paper Towns









And sure thing,
plane's movies in my favourite things ever about flying. Because apart from my lovely ipod, the screen in front of me is pretty interesting to be paying attention to.. 


And since sometimes I missed out movies while it was in the cinema, 
this is another way to catch them up! 


Despicable Me 2 for this flight!










So after the plane land, a good way to get into Hongkong city centre in via train.
Cheaper and faster! 


And of course, after you get off your destined station, which mostly is Hongkong Station,
catch a cap and head to your place!

Most of taxi in Hongkong don't park in front of your preferred place because they need to park by the taxi stands and that's also most of the way you can get taxi too.. they don't really park anywhere you whistle them too. A little inconvenient but you'll be fine! :)










Unpack the stuffs and head out with my brother.
I got myself one pair of shoes and a hat!


Stussy hat was a little unexpected but I'm totally inlove with it! 
The gold print was sooo gorgeous on the black leather-ish material and the back was super nice as well! More info here: http://store.hypebeast.com/brands/stussy/black-world-tour-leather-ballcap


And the Dr.Martens was pretty not-surprising since I was always wanted it about almost 4 years ago I just didn't buy it ..no good reasons too :p :p









So after walking and buying stuffs in the first half of the day,
We all went up to this place called Sevva, it's a restaurant with a very nice place to chill




I really mean like.. "chill"
It was kinda cold up there on the 29th floor



In case you wanted to visit the address is 10 Charter Street. 
For restaurant you need to book a reservation first but if you're only looking for a hanging out place with a little cocktails they wouldn't take the reservation...









Sevva, Hongkong



Sevva, Hongkong







So.. not feeling it at all I was wearing the brand new hat.. hahahhaa :-p

Actually just to filled in the outfit and cover up the not-ready hair.. I had no time to curl or do anything to my hair at all!

Inside was Miss Selfridge sparkling back-cut dress and filled in with the black stocking.. Protecting myself from coldness with Topshop black leather jacket and tint it up with the orange Balenciaga and the red Jeffrey Campbell's boot











After walking around town and bought 12 movies at HMV I came to meet dad at Time Square where he wanted a little advice on buying a bag. Lol

Though it looks like we're doing some kind of Mafia deal 
(which is what my friends usually say)
We were really buying bags hahahhahaha










After went in for a resting time we went for a little late night dinner in a building of our place.
So we were staying in the service apartment in Shama in front of Time Sqaure.


It was very convenient and cozy.
I kinda recommend you guys staying at service apartment if you visit Hongkong. Somehow it's bigger than hotel room and it's full of stuffs useful for cooking and everything













The ramen place name is Ippudo, it's on the 2nd floor of Shama building
Ramen was good!




Have fun living life guys!

New York City #2



Oh haii fellas <3



I came back fast ey?
Well I've got some time today! ..maybe like. tonightttt!





I went to Universal Studio in Orlando today and according to the fact that I am a super weird human that doesn't really goes along well with amusement park kinda stuff. I got extremely dizzy, felt terrible and went back to my hotel


Despite the feelings, i recovered, watched 3 episodes of Criminal Minds and now back here updating you guys about my days in the Big Apple!









That was the morning of my 2nd day!
With my lovely friend<3




Her name is Pear, i met her in elementary school but we got to know more in around grade7.
It was a long time right, for 20years of my life (urgh 20!) I've known this human for about 11 years!


After she stayed in Japan, came back and stayed with me.
Came here to America, got back and met me in Bangkok and now.
We finally got to meeet in the United States of Ameeeeerica!






Brooklyn Bridge, NewYork City.





We went to Brooklyn Bridge in the late morning.



Took the subway downtown, and walk along follow the bridge and signs.
It was a very nice day, clear sky and cool breeze blowing.


Unfortunately, the bridge was under constructing.. like. editing or something, we can still walk on it but some part was covered under the white sheet so it wasn't quite clearly pretty as it should be.


















After a while of appreciating, we walk back down the same way, didn't actually cross to Brooklyn. We went to Financial District because my mother just so fond for the Stock market and she wanted to see the fancy NewYork Stock Exchange.




Well, sincerely, I wanted to see it too.
Not because I'm a market trader or anything but first, The Dark Knight Rises was shot based on the area. Second, I wanna see the famous charging bull which sounds quite strange and last, the place sounds cool to me. Lol.






Topshop blue tank, Topshop high waist blue soft jeans, converse classic, Longchamp long carry nude.





On the way there, we passed The Federal Hall.
Which yea, I don't know what it is but there was a huge statue of mr. president there.
Not the present one, ofcourse.



So yea, there was a huge body of George Washington in front of the Roman-like building but as I don't really know what he had done for the country, I shall just took a photo of his statue's sign..



No. I'm not being sarcastic.
hehehe :p







After had a troller lunch on the street for an American sake of feeling. We hop on the subway, headed uptown to the 5th Avenue.

No, not to upgrade the lifestyle or something but we got our tickets for NBC tour and Rockefeller in the evening.




This freaking ice cream on your left here killed me. It just sooo goooooood. so soft and sweet but not too sweet. MyGodddd. Just a really perfect combination!

so if you're in nyc and you see the big ice cream truck, jump in and ask for original ice cream on sugar cone. Trust me, no regret!








On our way there, we stopped by the huge 3 floors book store and finally I got the book I've been looking for; John Green's Looking for Alaska.




Since I read his The Fault in Our Stars and some random quotes online I always admire mr.Green's thought and choice of words..

If you like some kind of straight forward language you should try read some of his works.
it's brilliant.












As we've got loads of time,
I decided to check out this amazing place called The Grand Central Terminal.




Well yes, we all saw it from Gossip Girl the starting of the whole series..
but I'm not a huge fan of that franchise, I just wanted to be there because it look extremely good in the picture and it does! look stunning in reality.






Grand Central Terminal, New York City




Unfortunately, NBC Studio tour allows no camera inside so I couldn't take any picture for you guys from that incredible place..


It was huge.. like, the power and mental stuff they had on me.
I got goosebump when the guide said Justin Timberlake was there .. hahahahha :p


Well yea! It's JT, who wouldn't!







Up side down!

We stop by at Bouchon for some macarons.
Yes folks, you heard it right! The famous Bouchon!










I got myself one chocolate and one caramel here<3
hmmmm good..!





soooo,
Ready for Top of the Rock now guys?




Top of the Rock, Rockefeller Building, NewYork city



The timing was accidentally perfect!
We planned to be there 8pm so we can see NewYork in night light but more lucky than that..





We got to see the sun setting over the Big Apple!!




First we just kinda feel screwed because it wasn't dark yet but when we see the sun going down, we all just went speechless.. guys, its amazing.




Top of the Rock, Rockefeller Building, NewYork city




And there's the Empire State Building!





Top of the Rock, Rockefeller Building, NewYork city


Top of the Rock, Rockefeller Building, NewYork city




Not everyday that you got to see something like this in a life time..



Well guys,
I just wanted to say..


Appreciate every moment you have, it's all beautiful in its own way.
Memorize it the way you wanted to.
Breathe in every good minute and second you have as you're living in this world.
Take the breathe as if you're counting it.


Live your life in your pretty way :)




Top of the Rock, Rockefeller Building, NewYork city



I'll get back to you soon and throw you guys some trolling I've done in NewYork!


Have a great day, great night and great whatever timezone you're in!

A Place called Gossip


Hi humans :)

Today I have a date with a friend of mine at 11am but you know what.. I woke up 6.30am
No alarm clock, no wake up call. Anything


Well, even for a morning girl, this is still pretty early.. =__=
I spent almost an hour laying in my comfy bed scrolling twitter, facebook, instagram, polyvore, weheartit newfeed until there's nothing i could do anymore and here i am!



and this is my life lately.. 


with my new baby macbook, macarons and tea

Thanks to my dad who bought me twenty pieces of Bruno's macarons and now I feel like I can't eat anymore macarons for months.. so this morning im on a couch with fresh hokkaido chocolate instead

as good!


Yeaa, I've been reading French.. 
Yeaa, studying on my own hoping for some miracle. 
Noo, I'm not so desperate.. you know, last time I studied a language on my own I end up being able to speak it fluently until now.. and if you want to know, it's Korean. And no, not all by myself entirely but basically in the first year or something.

And Yes, I'm reading John Green's The Fault in Our Stars. It's gooooood!
I haven't finished it yet but I'm a big fan of John Green's quotes on internet and I'm also a big fan of this kind of book.. like, you know, The Perks of Being a Wall Flower. 
Ask me, I love that book for my life!!

Okay, okay, let's get start with today's restaurant review
This place called Gossip.
located in Sukhumvit 55, Thonglor 15. Bangkok Thailand

Weird ay? 
Yeaaa a little bit but it's a good weird.

It actually isn't that big but yeaaa,  still pretty :)








At the time I went there it's quite early for a Gastro Bar kind of restaurant like this so there was not so many people inside


Oh yea,
also it was weekday night so the staffs were all for me and my friend..


like,
literally ALL FOR US


They paid attention to us soooo much.. even more than my mother when she's happy.. and I wasn't sure it was good or not but their service are real good despite the fact that they were so close, keep checking if we had finished our dish so they could clean it immediately.. hahahahhahahahahha

Yes, we were on the comfy couche..!







I'm always lost myself for the comfy couche.. urgh

It was good but not THAT impressive. simply good

Spicy Spagetti that was also fine, nothing special but as good




Okay Okay Okay Here comes the good gooood gooooooood part!

The dessert!!



On the left, 
Melting chocolate topped with burned mash mellow.. 
Sounds so good right. Trust me, it tastes that amazing as well!
The crispe of mash mellow was killing me alive and even I'm thinking of it now, it's still killing me!

On the right,
nothing so special about it but what cool is that..
Eventhough it is so green, sooo green you must thinking it's the green tea stuff but one thing about me 
(which you may or may not like)
is that I dont eat, drink or consume any kind of Green Tea..

*long story*

So the green thing you see in that picture is simply berries and berrrrrrrries



Little story on me..

Well, there's one thing I love doing so much.. weiirrrd weird thing
I love fooling around super market as much as I love grocery shopping

hahahhaahahaha well see..





I probably love walking in grocery store as much as other female beings love but at some point, buying or looking isn't enough.. yeaaa yeaaaa you are actually thinking whaat

yeaa because I am crazy and walking properly isn't adequate for me :p








Neon Yellow see through clutch from Bershka. Neon yellow shoes from Aldo.
