School Life. 24. 1. 14

Fridays are always my favorite, but isn't it everyone's? It is a brand new semester at school and things are starting up again. I am a complete hoarder when it comes to binders. Three weeks into the new semester and I hadn't even cleared it out. When I did however, this gigantic overfilled binder shrunk down to three sheets of paper and the rest went into the respective recycling bin.

My school schedule is pretty normal, I start the day at 8:00 AM and end roughly around 11:45. Shortened schedule because I'm a senior and because I took an extra summer class to get ahead. Honestly, it took a while getting used to because I'd get home at 12, get all my homework done, and have 10 hours where I ponder what the heck to do. 

On Fridays however, I stay after because of Korean Club. I'm the historian of said club, so all I do is take pictures. Korean Club in a nutshell, isn't just about kpop and dramas, we promote the culture and learn a bunch of stuff. 

Anywho enough with my ridiculous spiel, on to photos! 

Since I lack a fourth and fifth period, I go to the library and hang out with friends. Nikki and Ricky study instead of paying attention to me :c 

Sara, Nikki, and Ciara. Goddesses in human form. Hello cool kids! 

Meet Nikki! She's the coolest of the cool. Fashionable, fun, and very artistic. She just started her blogspot right over here! We're taking over the world one day. We promise.

Sara's a longtime friend. She's the ice queen everyone wants to be, and a massive kpop lover even if she denies it herself. 

I think Nikki was telling Sara something so I snapped her reaction to something horrific? Gruesome? I have no idea what they were talking about. 

After an hour or so, Sara and I decided to leave school with Alex and Tess to go eat. 

this looks like a poster to an upcoming hbo tv show about school. 

Tess is an ad campaign for Jeep. Thank you Tess for driving us to food places! 

After eating at Roberto's, Tess drove us back to school so we could head to Korean Club. 

Today's plan was to teach the kiddies how to play Yut, or Yut Nori. I was too busy taking pictures, all I knew about the game was that sticks and throwing them on the ground were involved.

Hello Calvin C: 

Resident kpop wannabe, Zi. (jk) 

Our club meetings take place in a math classroom, since our club advisor is a math teacher. (dur)

Teams were split up into two groups and played the game. I left before I knew anyone won actually. 

I hope everyone's weekend is going great!

Cloudy Thursday

It's been a week since I last blogged, do forgive!! I've had a pretty busy week last week and it was uneventful so I didn't really have anything to blog. But here we are now with some new stuff, haha. 

My sister and I went on out to run some errands for her trip to LA. So in my restlessness, I took my camera and photographed our little not-so-adventurous-adventure! 

The weather here in Vegas is so freaking bipolar! Two weeks ago we were having a warm cover but this week it was super cold and overcast! Hence the title of this blog, it was a damn cloudy Thursday. 

I think anyone who has ever been to my house can agree that I live in perpetual nowhere. Las Vegas is 25% busy city and 75% sleepy suburbia. I live in the sleepiest of all suburbia. I guess it is because I live in the newer neighborhoods. Give or take three years, my area will be just as busy. 

 

First thing on the list was to stop at Town Square. I don't normally go to malls on weekdays, so it was refreshing seeing this normally busy mall practically deserted on this cloudy day. 

Saw this eerie alley. I don't know I think alleys are really cool, especially the light at the end of it. 

Bridge infamous for the fact that teeny bopper couples take couple pictures here. Food stalls are at the other end. 

My tiny older sister, heh. See if Las Vegas looked like this all throughout I would love it 110% more. But alas, we are stuck with suburbia and desert, lol. 

A little piece of the Philippines that I grew up with is finally here!! Potato Corner hooray! I do apologize for the cruddy photo. The overcast clouds made the sign overexposed in photographs so an angled picture would have to suffice. 

two jumbo fries with bbq powder, extra bbq powder! 

I would normally take my Potato Corner with cheese powder, but my sister converted me to Barbecue. 

This is what I mean by deserted. It was around 12:30 PM when we were there so it's understandable as to why there aren't a lot of people. Refreshing change to how frantic it was in the Philippines! I can only imagine how packed Town Square would be if it were situated in the Philippines rather than here. 

I made the mistake of feeding one bird a french fry. The bird brought back their entire clan. 

Yep. Birds everywhere. 

Next on the to-do list was World Market. 

World Market is exactly what you think it is. They've got imports from all over the world. Food, furniture, etc.

I love going to the food aisles. Really cool seeing snacks from from different cultures! I'm sure many of them are delicious. 

I find it a bit funny, Americans in my opinion have a huge fascination with wasabi and sriracha. 

My family regularly buys the French soda they have here. Tastier than Coke or Pepsi, in my opinion. 

Various teas.

The food aisles took up the middlemost of the store, whilst the furniture and various home decor took up the left and right. 

Furniture! I love all the textiles they have here. 

As much as I love dark clothing, I'm a sucker for brightly coloured furniture. I'm just bummed that blogspot isn't really giving these photos justice. Click through for my flickr!

Wall clocks in various colours.
