Things I Love Monday Week 8 & Great Things To Happen in March

Hello Friends!

It's time for TiLM again (I know, I am late!) Yes I do realized now that I'm doing TiLM on  Tuesdays now, since it's my day of. I don't feel like changing the name, because I like it. Hah.

Anyways, it's been a busy week. I worked in my old department, ER, on Tuesday, and it was insane (like usual). Man, the flow of patients never stopped. Unbelievable! But it was nice to work with my old friends again! 

My church, UNISDAC, celebrated its 2nd anniversary. I'm proud of my church. Lots of other churches doubted that my church will still be together until now because we're a multi-tribal church, with 2 of the biggest being Bataknese & Manadonese (both are known to be hard-headed & strong in rivalry when it comes to being officers at church. Seriously!) We even went through multiple pastoral changes, yet we're still strong. I'm very happy with my youth! We're a group of fun people! Love them! Happy 2nd Bday, UNISDAC :)

After the celebration, I headed home right away to bake for my Sister & Bro-In-Law. They placed an order for cupcakes (and donated the money for my Honduras trip), and Vino (bro-in-law) drooled for the Chocolate SoufflĂ© Cupcakes ever since he saw the posting on facebook. Also I've always wanted to make Strawberry Cupcakes so I made them as well. 

Cupcakes! So fluffy!

We met up with them at Dave and Buster's, along with the Pillow, my brother, Otin & his girlfriend, Kat. We had so much fun, especially at the end where we were getting our tickets exchanged. Vino played this random game while we were waiting in line and he hit the bonus, 250 tickets. Haha. We ended up exchanging them with an Angry Bird doll (for me) and Vino wanted the doll of the dog from Family Guy. Even though secretly, I know Vino wants the Justin Bieber Barbie Doll. Hahaha...

They sent me this text the next morning!
Sunday was the wedding of my dear friend Naldy, who I've known since 2nd grade. It was great because it was like a reunion for Menteng (our elementary school) & Salemba (our jr. high). Unfortunately, our friend Nia, Naldy's cousin, couldn't make it to the wedding, so my sisters, JJ & Icha and I became text-reporters for her through out the ceremony. Haha. Epic.

So cute!
one of my favorite drinks ever: Avocado Slush with Chocolate Syrup & Boba.
So Monday was work day, as usual. And I got a call back 1 hour after I left work. Haha! But luckily it was an easy case. Twas a weird day though, weather wise? If you live in the Inland Empire, I'm pretty sure we were all weirded out by having snow/hail in the flat lands of Fontana, Beaumont, etc. I even saw pictures of snow in West Covina. WTH. Low elevation snow? Weird. Cool, but weird. And it was freezing (for SoCal standards). 


Got this awesome bag that I'm going to use for me trip. Super excited. It was so many pockets, it's perfect for traveling. It's made by Ecote, called Around The World Backpack (is this a sign?) and available at Urban Outfitters.

Today my parents & I headed to LA to take care of my mum's passport, and on the way home we stopped by Handel's Ice Cream in Upland. Claimed to be #1 ice cream in the world, it was great. I had Pistachio Ice Cream. So delish. I should stop by on Wednesdays, where it's $1 Cone. WHAT? In California they only have 2 branches, with a new one opening in my home town, Rancho Cucamonga. OMG. Super excited. Never too Cold for Ice Cream. That's my motto. Hahaha, I'm a dork.

Now, as for great things in March, lot's of things are going to happen in March, and I am very stoke about them!
  • 3 birthdays of 3 girls that I love: Mother, baby sister Ocha, and preggo sister Icha.
  • this upcoming weird interview on Friday. Nervous, but must go through it.
  • Cupcake photo shoot with my friend, A Sight of Love, at the Pillow's apartment. Theme is Vintage/70s, so it'll be me with my cupcakes, doing dirty things. I've never done a professional photo shoot, except for this one time for free with Chimmy @ Anthropologie, and that one was super quick. 
  • Honduras trip! I'm very excited for this!
I hope you guys have a great week(end). I'm on call, so we'll see how this week goes. More $$$? Haha.

moonbeams & bunny kisses,
Rima
