Girl, are you looking for the perfect sunhat to bring to the beach or a summer picnic? I swear, I've been trying to look for the ideal sunhat for months now and I never ended up purchasing one due to expensive pricing, wrong sizing, and other various reasons.

This post is not sponsored at all, but I just wanted to share with you all one of my favorite sunhat brands before summer is coming to a close!
Read MoreIf you think there are a lot of boba shops open in the Bay Area, just WAIT until you visit Southern California!

Read MoreThere's never a wrong place or time to try something new for the very first time. If it goes well, you've found yourself a newfound hobby, activity, or passion. And...if it goes terribly, at least you have a funny memory to laugh back on several weeks from now, hah! Throughout my entire 11-day vacation in Orange County, I found myself discovering several "first time" things that I can cross off of my bucketlist.

Read MoreLike my favorite video games Pokemon and Final Fantasy, I used to think there was a walkthrough for everything in life if you searched hard enough on Google. As much as you can navigate through the "related topics" on various search engines, you won't exactly find all of the answers that you need in one single article. And sometimes, that's the tricky part about life. There are some topics that you can research and various questions that you can ask people, but there will always be several things that you need to experience and learn on your own.
