TAZO Tea

I love Starbucks iced green tea! I been earning my stars from ordering tea instead of Caramel Frappe. Did I mention, I'm a gold member?! I'm waiting for my 4th free drink coupon. =) hehe! I started last year around October and I reached gold member when I got 30 stars around my birthday. You receive a Gold card with your name on it and a free drink when you reach Gold. As a member, you get a free drink on your birthday too and every 15 star after reaching gold level gets you a free drink. Each star is earned by making a purchase on your gift card. I know, that's alot of coffee.


But the pass three months I been drinking more tea. It's cheaper and less calories and good for your body/mind. On my way to work I order their largest size, the Trenta iced green tea and when I'm finished I make my own iced tea with the same cup. I add two sugars and it'll last me the rest of the night. I finished a whole box of the Zen green tea already. Now I'm on a new flavor: Orange Blossom. It's much sweeter and I'm more familiar with the taste because my dad drinks jasmine tea.


I microwave my water in the foam cup and then add a tea bag. I set up a cup of ice and when the tea is ready I add it to the cup of ice. I repeat it again twice because it takes two 10oz and two tea bag to fill that Trenta cup. That's what the directions called for. =) Since I'm watching my weight, I drink tea instead of eating so I hope it'll help me lose weight. I believe it kinda does. Here's my finished product.


It's Friday! No meat day! I haven't eaten anything yet. After this shift is over, I'm going to bed and wake up and go eat sushi! I love Fridays during Lent. I use that excuse to go eat sushi. Oh!! and then I can go see Minh Tuyet at Chalkline sing! Sounds like a plan right?! Let's hope I actually do it. Hurry up 7am!

VS secret rewards

I got all these practically free!!





I had 2 secret reward card and went to claim it today. I was thinking to pick up some underwear and get at least $10 off and save. Little did I know when I went to ring it up the girl said my secret reward took the whole balance. And she told me I had more on it. My face lit up! Yay! Free underwear! It was actually $50 gift reward!! I told her I have another reward card too. But she said it can't be combined. So I went to get 5 more undies and used the rest of my reward and paid only $5.45 for them. I wanted to find out what I had on my other card so I took a mini heavenly perfume and told her to ring it up and I'm going to keep it in my purse. It was only $10 on it. But I was still happy!! I only paid 0.88 (tax) for it. Woohoo!! Free undies and mini perfume I also went to Puccino's and used my 2 for Tuesday coupon and got tea with lemonade slush. 1 for me and 1 for ThaoVi. I had a great day!!

Springy April




I been wearing my new bag from Aldo and been loving it! Many compliments from everyone about it. I'm blogging from the hospital right now. There's alot if things I want to write before it builds up and I can't keep up. Loving this new blog app!

I went to Saks but didn't get the Chanel purse. My boyfriend Vinh and bestfriend Tien went with me. They were my advisors that day. I wanted the bowling bag but my boyfriend told me that if I wanted to get a Chanel bag, I should pick a classic bag first. Since I'm paying so much for it. And girlfriend thinks it costs way too much and she's not a big fan of Chanel. Anyways, I decided to pass on it for now and wait. But on a brighter note, he bought me Mac makeup! Sweet bf isn't he? Maybe he was proud I didn't blow 4k on a purse. Anywho, I never own anything from Mac before and to have my boyfriend treating me to it, is like icing on a cake. It was so nice of him. He bought me a lipstick and lipgloss and black fluid eyeliner I left at home.



Next: Tien booked our flights for Austrailia!! We're going down under in August!!! I'm so excited! I'm doing paperwork for my passport this week. I just touched up my hair color to a darker red that blends in with my natural hair color and got my eyebrows threaded before taking my passport picture.

And then: Vinh parents called my parents at the house about a week ago to invite then to have dinner. I know, the parents are meeting. >.< I'm so nervous. But hold your horses, No Engagement yet!!! It's just for them to get to know each other better. The dinner is set for April 9th. =)
