Dumplings!

Hey everyone! Today we had a family friend over. We call him Lao Li Ba Ba. Okay, well, everytime he comes to visit, he brings a TON of ice cream. He's so awesome. =]

Because we're having a barbeque tomorrow, my mom was going crazy cleaning the house so I had to make all the huen duin (the dumplings in soup). It was really fun and flour-y...and messy. Plus, I even had to cook them all and knowing me, that was a great feat. I'm not good with dangerous things. For example, fire. And boiling water. Not good.
Here are some pictures of the huen duin I made. =] On the picture on the right, the dumplings on the left my sister made. (the ones that aren't lined up) I made the dumplings in the star and in the three rows.


Memorial Day Weekend

Hey everyone! =] It's a long weekend.

I'm so relieved because I can relax and there's no homework! *gasp* (In case you didn't know, I'm in 8th grade). And guess what else. There are only 20 more days of school. However, there's the Hershey Park trip, Gettysburg trip, Dorney trip, and the PATTERNS picnic. After all of those, there's only about 15 days left of school!

I'm super excited, but at the same time, I'm super sad. =[. Middle school is passing so fast. On the last day of school, I'll bawl my eyes out. =*[.

Anyways, it's Memorial Weekend after all, so we're having a giant barbeque with tons of other Chinese families. On Monday, I'm hanging out with the azn crew and then I might go shopping afterwards.

What about you guys?

Nail Polish Wednesday

Well, it isn't Wednesday, but I did my nails Wednesday but was procrastinating and didn't make a post until today, which is Thursday.



Anyways, I love Nicole by Opi, which you can find at stores like Target, or Walmart and other stores. I get mine from Target. They have great colors, but they don't get much of the credit they deserve.

The polish I used is called It's Up To You and its this rich dark blue color. At first, I was worried that it would be super dark, but it turned out to be such a beautiful color. It's one of my favorite blues now.



As you can tell, I'm not the best photographer so I took a billion photos to try to capture the right color...and it didn't really work out.
