So this was my first time going to the Mongolian Grill and I absolutely loved it! The atmosphere was great, not to mention the amazing food which can be made into anything anyone wants. We went for the reception of my brother's wedding. The cooks sang a fun song that everyone around had to participate in. I'd say it was a great ending to an already wonderful day. Before... After...

It's so nice to know that I have been working towards a goal of growing out my hair and I can now see the results. I am slowly, but surely growing out my hair. Thanks for putting up with my twists, curly afros, and crazy high ponies. I intend to continue this natural hair journey. Here's what my hair looked like in 2010.

I must say that I really enjoyed this photo shoot. Despite the terrible cold, we were able to take photos in a rugged downtown area. This was my first time working with a fashion designer who arranged the entire theme and clothing designs. I normally am the one who decides everything for myself, especially if it's for one of my classes. But it was quite nice to just focus on the photography

Looking through old photos and I found this. I love my sister. It seems like when I was younger, my life was on an entirely different planet. We are two years apart, so we did everything together. We wore matching outfits and had the same friends. Now my sister is a senior in high school and is going away for college. No matter how far the distance is between us, we will always be sisters.

I have a book where I work on mini art projects. Each project comes from my heart and something that I am going through. When times seem to be going wrong, I can see this piece and know that it's going to get better. I hope to update my book more often and soon have each page filled with artwork.

All of my life, I have had natural hair. I remember the first time that I wanted my hair straightened, I was about four years old. I begged and begged my mom to straighten it. Reluctantly, my mom lightly touched my hair with the hot comb. I thought my hair was so straight, long and beautiful. Now when I look at the pictures, my hair was a big puff with a cute ribbon on it. Thanks, Mom. I've

I surprisingly have been rocking my hair in a high top style for quite a while, it is my "go to" hair style and it fits my personality as well. Sometimes, I am very surprised to see pictures of me with my hair like this because my hair

The Lake of Shining Waters. I have this in my head and it will not go away. This summer was probably one of the best experiences I have ever had. Excitement, laughter, and romance defines my summer. The weather is getting colder which makes me realize how much things are going to change and that summer is truly over. But I know that I will always look back on this picture and reminisce on the

When I went to Chicago, we went to the Illinois Holocaust Museum. The Holocaust is one thing in history that just does not settle right in my heart. Pictures of different Jewish families. Eiffel Tower. I was pretty darn scared. Overpopulated. Sexy bra. "Many people got off the ship and kissed the ground, crying."

I love this guy! I am so glad that I know him. His kindness is what first struck me. Now that I know more about him, I am inspired by his humility and unwavering faith in the Lord. "My passion is to see the unity in the body of Christ. To surrender and submit under the mighty hand of God. That way He can use others in this day and age because if anybody ever needed Him, they need Him now.” -

I absolutely adore Hello Kitty. I'm a huge fan, but the hard thing is that this brand has a broad style and there is so much to choose from. I love this purse because it looks non-girly (if that's a word) and looks chic and expensive, yet it's Hello Kitty at the same time.

Now when I look back on those months, I can't help but think how much I have changed and how much has happened since then. Yes, my summer was wonderful. And I was right, I knew I would grow and stretch in many ways which I have. Maybe it's not going to be fireworks or a grand event that

If you have been following me for a while, you will know that I am really into menswear. I have been trying more to spot out fashion that I see everyday, almost like the blog called Jak & Jil Blog.

I have recently been intrigued by these oversized hats. I normally would have gotten one during the summer, but according to this photo shoot, they can be quite acceptable during the fall as well. I will be keeping my eyes peeled for more of this floppy fashion. What do you think about these?

She is a friend of mine who is studying International and Community Development. For one of her classes, she was to dress in a different culture and see how people reacted to her during the day. I couldn't resist to take a picture.
