So we beat on, boats against the current…

Sometimes I like to rewind to a couple years ago, and think about me then and me now. It always trips me out. I look at this picture now, and I forget that 6 years ago (This makes me feel old),...

Home and the Holidays

The house I grew up in was tucked in a little suburban neighborhood on a cul-de-sac. The street was called Fig Leaf Court. I remember it being a tan color. But I remember when we painted it yellow...

My Dilemma.

P.S

I do realize that this blog is basically non-existent now (even though I see that our blog gets hits daily–stalkers I see you!), but I decided I want to sort of *revive* it. And I don’t mean revive...

Filipino Food

Every time I’m crammed with work or almost losing it because I am overwhelmed with my busy schedule, I usually either want: one, to sleep an entire 24 hours, or two, to devour about two plates of...

East Coast. August 2012.

My very first time in the City and the East Coast. Suffice to say I fell in love. I love you Cali, but I might have to leave you someday for New York.

The World Is Your Oyster

Sometimes, I look back a year ago from this moment, and I think to myself, “Damn, that was a year ago?” And then next year, at this day and time, I’ll be like “Damn, THAT was a year ago?” Time...

Mitra Fabian

I took a trip yesterday to San Francisco to see Mitra Fabian’s solo exhibition “Concentric” at the Don Soker Contemporary Art gallery. Despite the fact that it was pouring rain anywhere you stop...

February Love

Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on...

Indisputably, I am that stubborn, headstrong “I am absolutely right 100% of the time, and you are wrong” type of girl. Even when I know I’m wrong, I’ll spend 15 minutes convincing you why I am...

Backpacking pt 2

Welp. About a month ago my buddy Mike and I went on another backpacking trip at Point Reyes National Seashore in Marin County California. This time around we went for 3 days and two nights instead...

The Perfect Winter Boot

Everyone looks forward for fall fashion. For some people it’s coats, for others it’s shoes. For me it’s both. But if I am going to invest in something stylish this year it’s going to be a good pair...

In the Mission.

I went to visit my friend Robert a few days ago in San Francisco. Traffic was terrible right when I got onto I 80, and with a cracked radiator (among other car troubles I’ve recently discovered) I...

Summer so far

How I Like My Men

Most girls would answer the question “What’s your type?” as tall, dark, and handsome. Okay, maybe not. But that’s the typical answer that comes to mind. Nowadays, it’s not even about that. I guess...

Why I Love Fall: 2011.

I’m always eager for the next season to begin. Don’t get me wrong, I love summer. Summer clothing=cute little dresses, effortless outfits, less clothing, straw hats, and sandals. But I think I’ve...

So Summer is in full bloom, but my wardrobe is still growing. I am constantly inspired to build my style even more and to rejuvenate my closet. Right now my main inspiration are the latest Tommy...

Jamie’s Summer 2011

Apologies for my lack of posts, and apologies to Daniel for not keeping up with his posts. I always love when the season changes, especially when it’s my favorite season: summer. I’ve had to re-do...

Backpacking.

My buddy Mike and I went on another backpacking trip for spring break. It’s still snowing up north so we decided to go coastal this time. Just north of San Francisco to Point Reyes we went. The...

Things Daniel Would Like To Have…

With my Washington trip in May and my backpacking trip coming up I can’t go without saying that I’ve been pinching pennies the last couple weeks. I have not been eating out as much, selling my...

Women’s Spring 2011

Alright, alright. I’m completely aware that Daniel just posted a blog about Fall 2011, and I feel like this was a little too late. But better late than never, right? I can’t get too excited about...

Mens F/W 2011

This seasons list is not much different from last. It’s not me being biased; it’s just that these labels and designers work with my taste beautifully. So check it out and let me know what you...

5 Albums

My top 5 albums. I don’t consider myself a professional in music in any way, shape, or form. It’s all solely based on my personal preference and liking. I think from my selection, it’s obvious I’ve...

Sister Crayon: Bellow

February 19th might have been the last time I was able to see Sister Crayon play at the humble Luigi’s Fungarden. It was the long-awaited release show for their album Bellow (Now available on...
