Bread, Pastry, Coffee...


I just went with a friend to a glorious bread heaven. I love bakeries, and go to many of them with my brother. The only catch with going with my brother is that he usually only likes to go to Japanese places.

I finally got the chance to go to 85 Degree Bakery when I met up with a friend today. Can I say, I LOVE BREAD? Give me carbs! I never understood how anyone could give up gluten or carbs. It's just so heavenly delicious (even though it's not good for me like many things in life).

In a lot of Korean dramas, I always see the characters go to bakeries and pick out delicious things to eat. I often wondered why we didn't have more of those places here. We have coffee shop, but where are the treats?!

My friend and I got a bunch of things to share, and had an iced salt coffee... MMMMMMMM... I think my sweet tooth will be satisfied for the next year, but then maybe it just gave me a new addiction. Haha.

Maybe I should invest more time in finding more bakeries. Bread just give me an unadulterated joy that I sometime feel like I need more of. Who doesn't want happiness? But maybe it's too much joy. :)

Roller Coaster of the Grumpies

I think I have been extra hard to deal with in the last few weeks. I am constantly tired, and I think that makes me more prone to being grumpy.

In the last week I have lost my phone, been overworked, and it doesn't help that I have to deal with terrible people all day. I am not a dog that you can just command to do something, and I do not appreciate how the guest of where I work thinks that I am. Not only that, but I am scheduled to work 4th of July! That is very sad to me.

I guess I shouldn't be so cynical because there are really nice people out there that do make my day, and I love being in a cool place when I it's so hot outside. I haven't even felt the heat because I am indoors so often.

So many summer movies are coming out, and I am looking forward to rewarding myself with a trip to the movies! :)

Where has the Time Gone?!

I feel like I am constantly busy... even on days when I work only for 4 hours because then I come home, and make dinners or clean/do chores. June is almost over?! Where has the time gone?!

I am getting buffer arms! I don't think I want buffer arms... I rather lose lots of weight, but I'm working on it. (It doesn't help that I have an addiction to egg salad sandwiches)

I did go on a bike ride today, and it was totally relaxing. I haven't done it for a long time (which would explain why I had flat tires), and it was so nice to go on a breezy ride. Not that I went far, but it was nice while it lasted. I am tempted to buy a new bike, but I want to save money for trips and an iPad.

Tomorrow is father's day, and I think I will make my daddy a nice dinner. I love him, and I don't think he knows how much! :) Now I am just wondering what I should make...

Broken TV

I am a bit broken hearted lately... I'm the kind of person who likes to have background noise. I like the radio in the car, the TV when I'm eating, and music when I'm studying. I don't necessarily listen to whatever is on, but I like having it on. I don't know what it is.

A week ago, our living room/patio TV (where I like to eat and take naps) died. There was this giant line of death. The kind of white line you see when your computer dies. I knew then that we would go a few days without a television.

My parents then take their TV out from their room (they don't watch television in their room... they ironically only watch it in the living room/patio). A day later, we find that the speakers blew, so now there is no sound coming from the TV.

It's weird how they both die a few days from each other, and they were working perfectly fine all these years before. I would find it more funny if I wasn't so sad that I will have to live without television for awhile.

You can imagine how distraught I am. I would like a new television, but boy is it going to cost a pretty penny. I guess I just have to learn to be without for awhile. Woe is definitely me this week. Oh wells, life goes on.

Bumper Cars

I seriously think any car I drive is a magnet for accidents. I feel finding giant scrapes and dents on my car.

My latest one is HUGE and is on the same spot that someone has hit a few years ago. This time though, it scraped the whole driver sides, and banged up my back lights. It had to happen in a parking lot of Target or Albertson's.

I am so sad for my poor car, but I have to move on and think of happier things. Plus I have to make my lunch before I head off to work...

Summer Cold (the illness)

Oh my goodness, time really does move too fast nowadays, and it's really hard to keep up sometimes.

I have spent the first day of June with the sickies, and I think I have a cold now. I hate being sick when it's warm outside. It just makes the cold that much more intolerable. (Although I hate it when it's cold too)

So far I have nothing planned for the summer, but I would love to go on a trip or do something exciting this summer. It would be nice to do something fun while it's still summer.

Work has been getting better except for the time when I opened a door that set off the fire alarm...
