Day 33: Beena Showering Day

Baby shower that is!
My cousin and his wife are about to have their baby. We held a shower for them.
This is a diaper cake that one of my other cousins made. Isn't she talented?

Day 28: Beena Uncomfortable Day

Owie!
This morning, I put on my shoe and went to work. While I was driving, my shoe kept feeling more and more like there was something in there that wasn't supposed to be.
Once I finally got to school, I had a chance to look in my shoe. What was in there? A quarter. Not the most pleasant thing ever. At least it didn't wind up damaging my foot.

Day 26: Beena Fill-in Day

"Thanks a latte!"
How punny. In a coffee shop, I saw this on the tip jar:

Day 25: Beena Experimenting Day

Titanium!
My boyfriend has been researching different metals recently. One of the coolest he's learned about is titanium. Instead of painting this metal to change the color, you can anodize it. This essentially causes the oxide layer to have different thicknesses and to appear different colors (assuming I understand it correctly).
We decided to experiment with this process. He bought titanium guitar picks off the internet, and then we set everything up to be able to anodize it. Pretty cool results, in my opinion.

Day 24: Beena Travellin' Day

The lights glow bright at night...
As my boyfriend was driving us to his apartment, I decided to break out my camera and see what pictures would result.
This was my favorite of the night. I love how it shows the speed of the car and how nicely the lights show up.

Day 21: Beena Foreign? Day

Chinese Food :)
Today we went to another Chinese restaurant. (Yes, we're asian food junkies…lol.)
I got bored after I finished, so I decided to take pictures for fun. Here's my favourite of the group from the meal.

Another day with no true photo to its name.

Day 18: Beena Weird Day

Thundersnow?!?!?
Today my area experienced a bout of thundersnow. If you haven't heard of this before, it's similar to a thunderstorm except instead of rain, it's snowing. Pretty cool huh?
I tried to take a video of this, but I apparently wound up going out at the very tail end of the storm and so I got the snow falling, but no sound or lightning to go with it. Sad...

Day 17: Beena Yummy Day

Delicious!
My boyfriend and I went to one of his favourite places to eat tonight. It's this little restaurant that serves Japanese and Thai food just down the street from me. Sounds kind of like an odd combination, but it is really good food and some of the best service in any restaurant.
I taught myself how to use chopsticks a few months ago. That's me holding up one of my shrimp. I had to hold it a while cause he's not exactly quick with the trigger on the camera...lol.

Day 16: Beena ????? Day




Throughout the month of February, I was feeling fairly crappy. It was the flu or something? Due to this, I've gotten really lazy with posting pictures, causing me to be very back logged.
In the process, I've missed taking pictures for some days. Therefore, I'm just going to post fill in pictures on days that I have none. They're taken later, but I still want to have a picture each day. These will be called "fill-in" days. (This continues through March, cause I was still lazy then :P)

Day 15: Beena Bleh Day

......
Not much happened today. I figured I'd get a picture that was representative of the month.

Day 14: Beena Gamey Day

Going for the win!
Today I played a game called Culdcept Saga. It is one of my favourite games, played on the Xbox 360. It's kind of like a cross between Pokemon and Monopoly (much cooler playing it than it sounds from that description, I promise).
This is the graph that it shows you as a summary at the end of the game. I'm the red line. I thought I was going to win for a little while there, but sadly, I got beat out by a much more experienced player.
Oh well, it was a fun match. I'll just have to keep on trying right?

Day 13: Beena Boring Day

Yawn...
Today was a little boring for me. I wasn't doing much of anything at work, so I decided to take some random pictures while I was there.
This is the keyboard from my work computer. I don't really know what else to say about it.

Day 12: Beena Typical Day

Yum!
Today we went to Golden Corral. The food's always pretty yummy there (despite me not being able to eat half of it…darn stomach).
Anyway, at the end of the meal, I decided to tour the dessert bar. I wound up getting carrot cake and frozen yogurt. I thought my scoop of yogurt was pretty, so I decided to share my "masterpiece"...lol.

Day 11: Beena Fun Day

Welcome to blog!
Today I got to hang out with my boyfriend and a mutual friend of ours. It had been forever since we'd had the opportunity.
For lunch, we decided to go to a chinese buffet. Our friend and I both used chopsticks during this meal. We really appreciated the writing on the chopsticks wrapper. Yay for bad English...hehe.

Day 10: Beena Creepy Day

...or not so creepy...
I got a new sandwich maker for Christmas. Well, I asked for a waffle maker, but this one has interchangeable plates so I can make sandwiches and waffles in it. Yum!
Anyway, I recently had the amazing butter that Texas Roadhouse gives you to put on their rolls (some kind of cinnamon infused spread that is delicious). Because of this, I wanted to try to make my own and thought that I might be able to use the sandwich maker to cook it, hoping it would taste like a cinnamon roll...sort of.
What resulted was creepy. When I opened the sandwich maker, The sandwich was breathing. I didn't have my camera ready, but I went and got it quickly to try and film the event.

Day 9: Beena Lax Day

If only people could respond to my e-mails...
At work, I'm supposed to be figuring out schedules of different people I work with. However, in order to do so, I need answers from various other people within the workplace. No one seems to want to respond, and it's somewhat frustrating for me. If only people would cooperate, right?

Anyway, on an unrelated note. While I was home tonight, I decided it was a good time to play on my XBox. Has anyone else noticed that the bottom part of the controller really looks like a face?

Day 8: Beena Chill Day

It's nice to be around loved ones...

This is just a random picture I took today. It's one of my shirts originally, but I played with the image in Photoshop to see if I could spice it up a bit.
Not much happened today. My boyfriend came over and hung out after I was done with work. It was nice to chill with him when we didn't have anything particular that needed to get done.
