The weekend of raspberry mojitos.
December 7, 2008 – 7:45 pm by Patricia
Yummy, yummy, in my tummy.
I think I have finally found my signature drink!!! I love mojitos, especially raspberry mojitos… They are always so refreshing and I don’t feel like I’m getting totally trashed. After this weekend, I realised I’ve ordered quite a few of them whenever I go out and always crave either this… or a Bloody Mary. I will make it my mission to find the best raspberry mojito in California. So far, I’ve tasted and documented the best raspberry mojito at WISH in the SOMA neighborhood of San Francisco.
My friends and I went to NOLA in Downtown Palo Alto, and it was delicious! You can read my rather poorly written review at yelp.com, if you wish (I blame the alcohol and sleep-deprivaiton). Everything was great — the drinks, the food, the ambiance, the people — and I would love to go there again! The bar gave my friend a complimentary blowjob shot, but we had a little accident, and I went through the rest of the night with a stained tank top. Sadness!
Wearing:
two-year-old Rubbish military jacket, two-year-old Express beads, various F21 rings, BDG tank, F21 high-waist pinstripe shorts, ripped (but you can’t tell) thigh-highs from Nordy’s, two-year-old Steve Madden boots. I am quite happy that I can still wear stuff from two years ago and still feel good about it. Some shit never goes out of style!
I haven’t gotten around to taking post-worthy pictures of the last two outfits I wore out, but whatever — I don’t really care. Maybe I’ll just wear them again. There’s nothing wrong with wearing the same outfit twice, so long as there is no photographic proof of it!!! Well, good photographic proof. I’m sure there are pictures of me in those outfits, but I just don’t want to acknowledge that they exist. (I also should think about adding some sort of lightbox-ish thing to this, what with all of these photos. One day, I will become unlazy and decide which JS Library I will use. I will also become more motivated and start writing about webdev things. One day.)
And a final note:
I’ve added my blog to BlogLovin’ to make it easier for some of the folks out in Interwebz-Land to find me! Please add and follow me! Thanks!
A successful morning of shopping.

Love, and LOVE.
Oh, beautiful Pinstripe Blazer and Lace Bib Swing Top, you now belong to me. You will be in my hands by next Monday. Even though I wanted you in Navy, oh cute little top, you will do
quite nicely in Cream. I can wear you with nearly everything in my closet.
This reminds me. I’ve yet to show the world my purchases from the shopbop.com sale! A picture explosion later.
A successful weekend.

Sale?!!? I am SO THERE.
Ends at 11:59PM TONIGHT. Do it.
I just bought my first Tory Burch clutch. I’d link you to it. But now it’s sold out. Oops. Pictures when it is in my hands in 5-7 business days. I am ecstatic.

Victoria’s Secret disappears from my closet…

As popular as Victoria’s Secret bras are (and yes, I own a good number of them), there are some downsides to owning a VS bra.
- They are cut for women whose breasts point straight forward. Most Asians and petite women have perky breasts, but, in addition to this, they most likely they don’t stand at attention facing your 12 o’clock. Sorry. It’s more like 11:05… using both hands of the clock. HA HA!
- They never have my size. Don’t hate on the A Cups, VS. It hurts my pride and makes me feel little. In more ways than one.
- There is formaldehyde in them.
Wait, what was that last one? Formaldehyde?! Yes, according to ABCNews.com, some women have reported getting “rashes, hives, and permanent scarring.” There have been enough claims that a class action lawsuit is being considered. Fancy that — the world’s most famous bras make me itch.
Personally, I haven’t had a problem with mine, but Item #1 on my list is enough to make me switch. What do I enjoy wearing? Wacoal. The padding on a VS bra is shit compared to Wacoal, which is fitted more accurately to the body of petite Asian women. I love my Wacoal bras. Plus they don’t give me rashes.
