umami, sf
We ate at Umami, another hip sushi house/bar on Webster & Union in the Marina.
Miso Soup & Dragon Roll
I once again ordered my "Nikki Meal" however what made this fun spot different from all the other places I've eaten at was the drink I ordered- a HELLO KITTY- a watermelon concoction. How fun is that?

We then ordered a cookie dough dessert that's filled with vanilla ice cream that's designed just like a sushi dish.
Cookie Dough Dessert
Who would ever think to find the name Hello Kitty on the receipt at a restaurant? Too cool.
The strangest thing, I just got my feet done when I was in Rosa, and check the design I got on my toes- a watermelon.. Haha I know cheesy or rather yummy I should say. Either way, my big toe feels like braille with all the black rhinestones that's supposed to be watermelon seeds. Fun, Fun, Fun.
Anyhow, Happy Birthday Joanna! :)
valentines day
(white tank, skirt-xxi, belt- secondhand, shoes- betsey johnson)
instead of sulking for another unnecessary holiday that was created for hallmark and those that needed a specific day to express their love, i chose to join the bandwagon and celebrated valentines day. :)
and although this date can be a nightmare for many singles only reminding them the absence of a romantic relationship in their lives, i figured the relationship i wanted to commemorate was one with myself, mav, and close friends.
which is exactly what i did. i woke up and worked the fuck out. i ate lunch with tomiko and her man at one of my favorite restaurants Thai BBQ in south city- the Pad Thai is off the hook. And just when I thought the rest of my day would be lonely till the evening, it was filled with tons of company and good laughs. I then headed out for dinner and ate at Naked Fish, a sushi house & lounge in the marina in sf and had a swell time. I ordered a "Nikki Meal" which consists of a dragon roll, miso soup, tea, & ice water- I swear I'm always on the hunt for the best dragon roll and this one is not bad at all.
Valentine's Day is seen as this holiday to make those without one feel depressed for the lack of someone special to celebrate with. But if you look around you'll see that it is not only for lovers but for those like myself to enjoy as well.

Hello MAC, Hello Kitty
As a former MAC artist, I finally got to feel the rave of a new release of a trend like a normal customer.
And of all the times I've been with MAC there was Barbie, then Fafi but nothing has caught my fancy the way the Hello Kitty Collection has.
Maybe it's bc I grew up adoring this iconic character that's usually assumed to be a cat but is actually a little girl according to Sanrio. And a girl without a mouth, so she "speaks from the heart" :)
MAC will release Hello Kitty Kouture, the more high end collection, March 5. So stay tuned. Imagine pulling out one of these when you're applying your makeup on. Anything with Hello Kitty and rhinestones will surely catch anyone's eye.
