New Instrument, backpack, Gloves, Boots!



 Since school began, I really had little time to update this blog. But well since all midterms have ended and it's kind of the freebie period of the semester, I think I will update a little bit on some of the things that happened over the past 2 months! I think one thing that is really worth celebrating is how school is going quite well at the moment, my midterm exams came back with good marks. But of course, I am hoping to do even better!

Other things that changed? Over the past two months I had been researching where to take music lessons for Guzheng or "Chinese Zither" and after weeks and weeks of researching, I finally found myself a teacher. I just started learning last week so the whole getting back into practicing 1-2 hours everynight for an instrument is still pretty awkward for me but I am really enjoying it at the moment.

How shall I say this, with work comes spending money. I'd really like to knock the habit off but well I went on another shopping spree again. Recently, I got really into backpack styles and the Herschel backpacks had the kind of "hallyu" kind of feeling to it-- its like the ones characters would wear in a Korean drama... and so well I got myself one last week! I've just started using it and I am loving it so far. In terms of durability, it's not too much on the strong side. But it's definitely a fashion item added to my wardrobe.  I am not sure if anyone of you are a fan of the Aritzia gloves but I am. I love the soft fleece lining and the knitted style it really keeps my hands warm during the cold winter weather. I got myself a pair of mint green ones :) MY FAVORITE COLOUR!

One more thing to add to my major spending list would be my awesome leather boots. I am definitely not a fashionista and I can't really wear high heel boots. So when I got to Winners looking at their sales, I found myself an amazing pair of Rock Port boots with upper genuine leather and a small high heal. So well I can kind of satisfy my "heeled boots" crave. I love shopping at winners because you can really get great deals. And of course, lastly I got some really nice 14k gold crystal earrings (studs) from there. It's the kind with the sparkling crystal ball type, these one came in a box of three for $60 dollars CAD.  :) Liking them so far!

I love shopping for things, especially when they're at good deals!

Well that is all for now, in the meantime, check out my updated pages for new recipes and faith sharing!
