Cafe Lattea and Hiking in Rancho San Antonio

Last weekend Sandy and I  spent some quality time together by hitting up a cafe and a bit of hiking in Rancho San Antonio.











Cafe lattea was quite interesting.  I'm not sure where the drinks originated from, but it tasted like something I had in Taiwan.  It's coffee with salty cream on top, I had it hot but I think cold would have tasted better.





We ordered Cafe lattea's specialty: Honey toast.  Our honey toast was chocolate and banana flavor.  The last time I had honey toast was two years ago in Taiwan.  By this time I had already forgotten where to start with such artistic dessert, so I left it up to Sandy.











Coffee with salty cream and chocolate/banana flavor honey toast are a good combination.


To burn off some calories, we went for a short hike in Rancho San Antonio.  It was the perfect day to for a afternoon hike.  Being in the nature just so relaxing.























It was more like a short walk in Rancho San Antonio.  The place is serene and relaxing, We will definitely return and do an actually hike.

Vision Board



It's been almost three months since I attended Christine's photography workshop.  One thing Christine taught us is to list out our goals and FOCUS.  I am a dreamer who often get lost in many of my dreams, so when she introduced  "vision board" to us, I had to put that on my to-do list.

Christine told us, a vision board is a visual representation of all your goals.  Take old magazines, go through them and cut out any words and images that pertain to your goals and then glue them on a board.  

This is what I end up with:





Pretty self-explanatory eh?

Spiritually-Get creative, develop my own photography styles.  Be fearless, accept challenges.  Stay healthy, having a sexy bod.(hehe)  Be in love, fill life with laughter.  

Tangibly-As my photography skill develops, get a full frame camera! Get 24-70mm and 70-200mm lenses.  Travel to Hawaii and Mexico.  Run a marathon.  Get better at snowboarding.

My vision board is now in my room, reminds me everyday what my goals are.

Start your vision board today! Even if it is just to pass your current level in Candy Crush muhahaha  Btw, I'm stuck on level 23, anyone!?  help a sister out!?
