행복한 음력 설날! Chúc Mừng Năm Mới! Xin Nian Kuai Le!

Happy lunar new year! Happy Tet! Happy Chinese New Year!
May the year of the dragon bring lots of blessings and wonderful opportunities ~
 I'm a day late, but oh well I'm doing it now haha
Though I'm not Korean nor does my family celebrate I still like to acknowledge it (:
It's times like this when I wish I was Korean or that I was old enough to trav on my own. I really would love to have a hanbok but they're so expensive, or at least to expensive for me to buy with my minimum pay lol
When i go to Korea in the next few years for college I know the first thing I will by, a hanbok (:

Sunday Snapshot: California

So i realized that i never got my pictures up from when i went to Cali for an audition. So without further a due, here they are!

plane in Huston to get to Cali (this was our second flight) we ended up being delayed over two and a half hours due to an issue with our plane and them having to find us a new one! ):

Sign telling us where the audition was (:

I was # 33 (:

I sadly didn't end up making it past the 2nd round and onto part 2 of the 2nd round, but i had an amazing time and it was a once in a life time type of experience. I met many amazing people there. After the audition on Sunday we went to the different beaches that we hadn't gotten to visit on Saturday. 

There were lots of dogs at this beach, they were all so cute!!
