Most beautiful time of the year

I cannot believe it is almost end holiday season! Christmas time is my favorite time of the year, mainly because my dear friends come back to my hometown to visit and play. And of course, no school, and cold nights which calls for warm sweaters, pea-coats, leggings, boots, beanies--I simply adore winter wear. Also, you cannot forget about them holiday parties, filled with hot chocolate, and peppermint lattes from Starbucks, Christmas lights, oh my. It's simply my favorite time of the year.

Thanksgiving just passed, which means BREAK!! Caught up with old friends that I haven't seen for a while and hung out with new ones. It felt extremely nice and relaxing to not think about school for a few days. The only bad thing is, it got me into holiday mode already so I can't seem to focus on anything. I just want to be home for the holidays. But before that can happen, need to survive FINALS :(

I just finish signing for my classes for winter quarter. Hopefully it is as painless as possible and filled with many hours of sleep (aka the thing I always seem to need) #lifeofcollegestudent. I could be in bed right now, catching up on the zzZzz's since I finish my biochemisty homework early for once but I am online blogging my heart out. #latenightpostsarethebest. I miss my tumblr for that reason

Black friday shopping. Boots (in both pictures) are from Macy's. Red beanie from H&M, blue collared shirt from brother

Caught up with my babygirl, Magie. Treated her out to some dim sum as a belated birthday gift

Spontaneous trip to get some shaved snow. We tried almond snow with fresh strawberries, green tea mochi drizzled in condensed milk

Dinner with Jimmy, whom I haven't seen for over a year despite how close we lived to each other. Our school schedules were always opposite. Super spontaneous boba + brick toast (post dinner snack) with these fools. Joey and Jessica came down to visit us, hehe

Just some snapshots over Thanksgiving break. Time to hit the books again to ace those finals. See y'alls in a couple weeks or whenever I refuse to study (or sleep early)

With lots of TLC,

Denise
