Got Me a Haircut!
I was long overdue for a haircut. The last time I cut my hair was in February and although it hasn't been one year yet, my long lovely locks (loljk) were getting out of hand. So gross! I contemplated for a long, long time whether to get my long hair curled or to cut it short. In the end, I settled for the younger looking outcome of chopping it all off. Here are three initial pictures I got of my short hair, all taken courtesy of Snapchat.

Random: July, August & September 2015
This will be a short post, but here are the random photos that don't fit in anywhere for the past three months! I've actually begun the really good habit of deleting unnecessary photos on my iPhone, so I don't have much to upload. Sorry? Or am I not sorry because I'm finally feeling more organised? Well, here are the photos from:
- Green Waffle Diner with Sarah
- An exhibition in Pacific Place
- A free dessert from our favourite waiter in Outback Steakhouse because the Kornhill branch which we frequent at least twice a week was closing (actually, I didn't manage to snap a picture of it, but it's quite memorable since I finished 3/4 of it so I'll reuse a really old photo I took two years ago)
- Random Snapchats taken on my Dad's car

The Newly Opened agnès b. Café L.P.G.
Had to go to Tsim Sha Tsui for my mole removal appointment, so Mum and I decided to use our cash coupon for lunch at agnès b. Café L.P.G. in SOGO. It was newly opened and was super hard to find, ugh! But lunch was nice and we got pretty pictures, it was all worth it. :)

#charmycooks2015
Unexpectedly, I got into cooking recently! Truth be told, I'm lazy as heck and I'm not doing this because I want to be more healthy (well, it's a nice side consequence of cooking) or to save money... I know, I know, those are the proper reasons for why I should be cooking, LOL. But hey, I'm honest, and you guys know it. The real reason why I began cooking and actually enjoying it - except for doing the dishes, of course - is because I want to take nice pictures for Instagram. Didn't expect that, did ya? Check out the #charmycooks hashtag on my Instagram account! The thing, though, is that I only put the most photogenic pictures on there, so the readers of this blog actually get to see more! If you're reading this, then congratulations, you're one of those awesome people! :)

Tai Ping Shan Street, Innovation Tower & Mid-Autumn Festival
I was to photograph an event for my Photojournalism class, so on Mid-Autumn Festival I took my DSLR and boyfriend with me to visit the Jockey Club Innovation Tower in the Hong Kong Polytechnic University for the first time in my life. Actually, I'd wanted to go there since forever - I mean you know, Zaha Hadid did design it and she's one of the most well-known architects in the world, whether you love or hate her.
First though, Jason and I explored Tai Ping Shan Street for lunch because I had to redeem a snack from Anything But Salads with my Sugar Hong Kong app. Yep, Charmy-cheap-ass strikes, once again. We had lunch at Oldish, collected my organic sundried tomatoes, then stumbled upon Teakha which had a little pop-up pottery thing by made by hama. It was their last day and I was lucky enough to try their free teeny tiny ceramics making thing! It was hella hot though...
After making our way to PolyU in Hung Hom, where the 10DAYFEST 2015: 108 Stories of Social Innovation was being held in the Innovation Tower, Jason and I went back to Causeway Bay for dinner. We then stopped by Victoria Park to look at the lantern display. The last time we went was two years ago, on Jason's birthday in 2013 actually! I can't believe he turned 23 then and next year, it's my turn to turn 23. Man, time flies.

Parents' Birthdays Lunch Buffet at Mr. Steak Buffet à la minute
As y'all might know if you've been reading my blog for a while, my Mum's birthday is one week after my Dad's (and as a side note, my boyfriend's is one day after my Dad's). I decided to kill one bird with two stones by booking a lunch buffet at Mr. Steak Buffet à la minute in World Trade Centre, Causeway Bay! It was basically my first time going to a buffet place that wasn't part of a hotel, but the ratings were good and the price for a weekday lunch wasn't too bad, so I decided to try it out. Honestly, the food was delicious! I had like three or four chocolate molten lava cakes and even more brownies...
Afterwards, I got my brows done for the first time at SOGO's branch of Benefit Cosmetics with their Benebrows brow bar #wowbrows thing. I can't even remember what it's called, lol. It turned out a bit thicker and fuller than what I'm used to, but nice nonetheless! Perhaps it can be my new, bolder look haha.

Farewell to My Archians
The night after lunch at Locofama with Clar, I actually skipped my night time lecture - partially - just to see my best buds off. Without them, especially the girls, I wouldn't have been able to survive the three years of #architorture. I was basically the only non-family, haha, I expected Hank's girlfriend to be there but I guess they'd already said their goodbyes.
They were so lucky they were all flying together! The reason? Well, they're all going to the same school... UCL. My smart, smart friends. All the best to them in London!
