“there are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.” —Albert Einstein
When I started to see everything as a miracle in my life, great things just seems to keep happening to me; I’m more happier and good news just keep rolling in, it’s almost unbearable how lucky I feel right now. I might sound like I’m on some kind of crack everyday by how much I express my happiness but it’s really no joke, I’m loving every second of my life right now and I couldn’t be in a better place in my life. So I guess you can say, I’m on the good kind of crack ;] (LOL).
Since March, I haven’t been able to stop and fully absorb my current situation of all these great opportunities and moments given to me. SO MUCH has happened already and I keep saying, “I wish I could cry right now” because of how happy I am, but for some reason I can’t when I try to. I have so many reasons to be happy with my life and if I can’t cry tears of joy, then I’m sure as hell gonna smile it off like a million bucks :D
Today, I choose to live as if everything is a miracle.

Shipwreck Cove:
Our new secret spot :P
I Llove our adventures… :]
As I’m driving along PCH, I roll down my window and in comes a comforting scent, the beach. Sniff-sniff. Sniff-sniff. The teasing smell of salty water goodness, cheap acidic suntan lotion, and burning charcoals on barbeque grills leave my nose sniffing for more. I can already feel the sand in between my toes. It’s like I’m back at my home town.
I haven’t been to the beach since 2 summers ago. I love the beach, the beach is my spot! It’s where I could always go recharge my inner energy while have a blast at the same time. Today when I opened my front door to get the mail, this wave of heat rushed in and onto me and I said to myself, today would be a nice day to go to the beach... Then I asked myself. Why not then? I am off today… Immediately after I finish lunch, put on some board shorts (oh how nice it feels to wear these again!), and eagerly get into my car and drive down Brookhurst Street. After I park and walk down the main street towards the pier, I look around to the shops, restaurants, and people all over wearing board shorts / bikinis; something clicks. I feel strangely at home and that’s when I realized my old beach bum side came out. I am not gonna lie, I really miss these days so much. I’m totally a white washed Asian in disguise… Seeing all the surfers, volley ball players, and beach cruisers really showed so much life here today at the beach (when I thought it’s winter and it’ll be dead) and I wish I could be more apart of this. I feel, alive to be here. I then ask myself, where have I been…?
I’ve missed having sand in all the wrong places :P

LA Travel Show: 01/14/11
where to even start? Well I surprised my friends by taking them to this convention about traveling which had all these interesting booths from all parts of the world handing out fliers and free stuff. And on top of that there were activities we could do like rock climbing, indoor scuba diving, zip lining, walking on water in hamster balls, and more all for free! :] It was an awesome experience and I’m glad I got to do it with my adventure buddies :] I love them to death! They are the reason why I am so hungry for adventure all the time :] I usually go on adventures with each of them separately so I thought today I could surprise them by bringing them together on one mega adventure! They were all so scared and nervous at first since I usually inform them what’s going on but today all they knew was that we were going to get wet, climb walls, and have lots of fun. One-by-one as I picked them up in the morning they were so surprised to see each other and anxious to see where we were going. I’m glad it turned out a success :D ADVENTURE is out there!
So this is what it feels like to be alive…
Now that’s a great adventure to start the year off >:]
