Pate Chinois & Latest Purchases

So on Easter Monday the bf and I had nothing to do so we decided to make Pate Chinois,
, a French Canadian dish. It's a typical Quebecois dish here and it's really simple to make!,Just layers of cooked ground beef. corn and mashed potato. Well, I didn't do anything and just waited until it was ready, the bf did everything aha. We always fight in the kitchen because we never agree on how to do things so I let him do all the work.

 The finished baked Pate Chinois. It wasn't well baked, white at one corner and  burnt at the other but still good!

I went to the Suzy Shier outlet sale and got dirt cheap stuff, tunic for $5 , blazer for $10 and scarfs for $2.5.



 I find myself passing by H&M more often than Zara. I still love Zara but it's not sale season yet so I just glance there from time to time aha.
I got this navy blazer, really like the gold buttons! Also impulse buy on nude ruffle dress from the Garden Collection. I don't know if should keep it or not. It's really light and comfy but it shows the form of my butt (not that I have one) ! I'm not used to it.



School Rant:
20 days until the end of the semester, the end of school forever!

Good night. And 200 Followers OMG, I'm feeling sorry for being such a bad blogger. =3

This and That

Last weekend I went to a birthday at Roasters so I thought it would be the perfect occasion to wear the Zara nude blazer that I purchased since last summer but never wore it. And not even for a few hours, I managed to get a coffee stain on it! Luckily it was inside of the blazer so you don't really see it. (Note:Drinking coffee in a car is not safe.)

Whenever I go to chinatown, I grab some of those eggtarts, they're so good especially when they're still hot! I like them because they're not really sweet and I can eat three of them without getting sick of it.

   Latest buys from a store called Bodwear at Peel, it's the sister store of Boutique Olivia I think. A   simple shirt and a skirt. 10$ each. Also I passed by Simons to use my giftcard a friend gave me to buy the bangle. I still have some bucks in the card left,didn't know what else to get =D.

It's been over a month since I didn't blogged, shame on me. I've been wearing my Zipia sweaters to death because they're just comfy and easy to wear. I don't really dress up anymore. Just jeans & hoodie for school aha. Today is friday, means volleyball time yay. I have a belly so I have to burn some calories but it doesn't help you eat late in chinatown after doing sports. Fat burnt < Fat gained. I love the food there even if you want to drink tons of water after because of the MSG. I love saltcand pepper anything, pork chop, chicken, shrimp, serve it and I'll eat it all. And of salt and pepper tofu!

It's springish weather outside since the snow melted away but for me, it's still frigging cold! I only wore one layer of leggigs today and I was freezing and people start to wear skirts already. I'll never get it.

Sweater/ Dress: H&M, Scarf: H&M; Bag:Asos, Leggings: Asos, Booties: Zara

I bought these Zara booties during the sale season and they're really comfy to wear since it's only like 1cm heel? Can you even call it heels?

WHAT DO DO, WHAT TO DO?!!!!!!!!

I'm so bored these days I don't know what to do anymore so I end up eating every couple of hours and I can't stop myself from going into the kitchen to look for food even if I'm full. Since I returned to school, my schedule has been messed up and my sleeping patterns are not what you would consider healthy either. I think that if I had to choose between work and school, I would choose work over school any time. Some other people prefer school more, I never understood that.

These are my snacks. Hey, at least it's not Chips + Coke!



Seaweed salad, I just discovered this and I love it. I can eat tons of it and not getting tired. I don't know how to prepare it though.


Vedgetables with Dips. I never knew that you could eat brocoli raw since we always cook them!



Oh ya , my attempts to do nail art, I have abnormal nails, fat and chubby, must be my dad's genes.





Lindt Thins! They're so good. I hate dark chocolate but this doesn't taste bitter at all.

The Zara Shirt/Dress thingie that I wanted a while ago but it only went down to $39.99 which I didn't want to spend. Last week however, while browsing through Zara, I found it hanging hidden between the nonsales clothes and it was marked down to $19.99 from $69.99, there I just had to grab it!


Olivia Boutique Sandals, $9.99 on sale. Summer is over but what the heck, why not?!


And this is what I got from the American Apparel fleamarket sale. 3 hoodies 15$ each, the white drawcords are missing though and the blue one had a defect. There was a hole because it wasn't well closed so I had to sew it. I'll probably going to give it to the bf.XD

Black dress hoodie?! Size Large ahaa.

And another summer has gone by...

I'm nostalgic that summer is over but at the same time I'm glad that Fall is here. My summer hasn't been eventful as a certain someone is not here but I didn't feel alone as I was either working or was hanging out with friends.

The fireworks - Actually I didn't see a single one this year except for the one when Quebec was shooting where we stopped in the middle of the street to see it. My friends find fireworks boring, I still like going to watch it, maybe I'm getting old. I remember those times where we used to go almost every week, meeting up in Chinatown then hang out there, walking to Old Port and eat buns there to wait until it finally starts.

okonomiyaki - Japnese pancake. It looks delicious doens't it? I don't know how it's supposed to taste like but I think ours wasn't fully cooked and smelled too much like fish.




Matsuri - Matsuri is a japanese festival held yearly at Montreal's Old Port. It's the first time that I went there. It was blooding hot on that day and we went when the sun was rising the highest so it wasn't a good idea. I still enjoyed it, I didn't see much from the shows but I loved the sushi there. It's freshly prepared and costs only 3$ per box. The wasabi actually tasted like real wasabi. You can rent a Yukata for free for 1 hour there and they put it on for you. I couldn't breath because of the bow, it's very tight >___<. Random home made food XD.
I love bulgogi!

BBQ ribs at a friend's house. I ate like a pig.




And here are my last purchases of the summer. I've been on a shopping ban since then, not voluntarily.

Zara Flower shirt and striped blazer. $9.99 and $29.99

Zara Shirt, hanako - now we have the same shirt =D $7.99

And lastly THE BARGAIN BUY OF THE YEAR. The infamous Zara cream blazer for $19.99 from $149 in my size XS from Carrefour Laval. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it, I thought it must have been a price mistake or something. Maybe it was indeed as the other ones were still $49.99. I find it so unfair that there's different prices on the same items depending on which Zara you go to.

Since then I didn't buy anything, good girl.

A girl's gotta do what a girl's got to do!

Eat + shop of course! This was from last week's after class walking alone in downtown shoptrip.Now I think Olivia stacks up on sale items on Tuesday. The rack is pretty full compared to the end of the week.

Ae shirt, Zara Jeans, JOE Fresh Belt, Random scarf from random store, Vietnam Shoes.

HABS watch lol,if you see me wear a watch, it means I have an exam on that day.I really get paranoid if I don't have a watch during an exam.

I love St. Ives scrub!Especially the mild version, the regular version doesn't smell that good.

Very proud of my awesome self made taco. It looks so neat at the beginning. You should see the mess after!

Pandan Cake, it's good I tell you!

Olivia Boutique dress 19.99$ on sale. Impulse buy but I just had to get it. I love all the ruffles around the neck area.

Olivia Boutique cropped cardigan + skirt. 10$ each.My mom fixed the skirt because it was too big on the waist,yay. Cheap 9$ Sirens Skinnies I couldn't resist, I don't remember the last time I shopped there!

Recovery

Today I went out of the house for the first time after being sick ( which was wednesday). Usually I never can stand being in the house for more than one day but when you're sick you really appreciate it that you have a bed and a couch to lie down. Wednesday night i skipped my night classes took the metro home and lay down immediatey on the couch, so bad i felt because of the fever. Now I am only coughing and have a running rose, half so bad =)


So back to topic, the bf picked me up and we went to Rockland center as usual since it's close to my house. And i just wanted to get some fresh air without having really shopping in my mind but what's the rule again, never try to find something, wait until it comes to you. I was looking for a new bag for school and didn't find any so today at Zara, I spotted one on sale and it was the last one. I was really happy because it was ligth, big and the price tag was reasonable 39.99CAN but to that later. Also I found a simple black dress in XS. Too simple maybe?So that's my adventure and the bf was carrying my bag, coat and scarf while I shopped aha, that's the only use they're for when shopping in my opinion and carrying shopping bags of course! XD Oh and he paid for the bag + dress as valentine's gift yay.So much to abusement.



Zara Dress 19.99$CAN

Zara Bag - on sale for 39.99$CAN but rang up as 29.99$CAN o__O


And another Zara dress from last week


$19.99CAN

And guess what i've been eating for the last THREE meals, chinese fondu, yes. Tofu + Water Crescent + Mushrooms + transparent Vermicelli = I never get tired of it.It's yummy and you feel like you can't stop eating them. I don't like fish balls, shrimps,squid or meat with it except for lamb for really good beef.

I swear, if it continues like this, I am going to go bankrupt because of Zara.

I feel like eating fried bananas now...

I am only productive after 2am...this is not a healthy lifestyle i guess. It's quiet, no distractions besides myself.

This was at Magic, a bubbletea place in Mtl last weekend I think. My friends are pigs, everywhere we go we end up eating.

Oh yea, HAPPY NEW OX YEAR EVERYONE, I wish you lots and lots of red pockets!XD I didn't receive any booooo =\
