one more day

one more day until the big test and i can't concentrate..
i hope i can pass it :).

it's 11 AM and i'm still in bed.. what can motivate me to get up today?? i think that i'll go get the triple combination roast pork, soy sauce chicken and BBQ duck for lunch from a local favorite. and i'll also get a tira misu cheesecake. there, that should be enough motivation :).

bless the broken road

so, i'm supposed to be studying for my boards: step 2 CK which is scheduled in 9 days!! i'm supposed to be freaking out since i still don't know much. but instead i find myself watching countless wedding videos haha.

this is the background music for one of the wedding pictures slideshows. this is the song currently playing in my head:


"Bless The Broken Road"

I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

[Chorus]

Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.

hot chocolate

I'm here at Starbucks enjoying a cup of hot chocolate with whipped cream on top and a cheese Danish.

Last night, I saw Madame Butterfly at the LA Opera. The minute I stepped out in the courtyard, I was enchanted. There was a lovely fountain in the middle. Couples in love, dressed to the nines abounded. 'Twas a lovely night, perfect weather with dark sunset blue skies. A sense of romance was definitely in the air. And yeah, the production did not disappoint, as well :).

I'll leave you a quote from Puccini:

Chi ha vissuto per amore, per amore si mori.
(Who has lived for love, dies for love.)
