Chocoholic for Life 🍫

What’s your favorite candy?

Well I am a chocoholic….

So it’s not surprised that I love chocolate. Any form of chocolate bars, little chocolate pieces in different brands.

Hmm, regular liquid, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, even white chocolate, hazelnut almond.The list kind of goes on and I don’t want to get more hungry. 😂

Hmm, but I would say the form of brand of candy that I do love the most would be either Lindt chocolate. But I would say especially Cadbury Milk Chocolate, it has a special memory and favor in my heart.

Basic Food, Seasonings & Soap

The most important invention in your lifetime is…

I would say these two are my i’m thinking that they’re the most important invention in my lifetime.

Well first of all, so because it came to me from a manga and an anime called Dr Stone.

They said some really important points that was just like rebuilding the world. But the one ingredient and factor that helped would be the creation of soap.Because it helps in different situations.

Well, first you gotta be hygienically clean.

And second, it prevents illnesses like with touching and especially the time with the pandemic, how it’s important to wash your hands. And the bacteria would be gone, and it would be prevented from spreading around even including disinfecting wipes.

This substance or small thing has really helped throughout time that I really didn’t think about until now.


The second will be basic food and the creation and invention of different dishes/cuisines and how it transformed.

It also came from watching many tv shows with watching Masterchef growing up and especially from anime like Food Wars. But I did notice one thing that was important, that came from One Piece.

It’s something that a character named Zeff said. And I kind of thought about it in general and seriously, when you’re abandoned, there are no where around you like let’s say an island.

The first thing that is important isn’t how much money you have or electricity or social media or all the superficial stuff….

The first factor you think about is shelter, but most especially food.

And after I saw the scene where he made that sacrifice, and he was thinking about Sanji, and he let him eat, and he didn’t even have any food for himself, just jewels and gold. And treasures that didn’t mean really mean anything.

He remembered and made a good point and how we should never waste food. And that for me that makes me kinda regret a lot. And the respect for resources, because what’s the point if you can’t feed yourself to survive and grow.


Seasonings is an unnoticed thing. That kind of made me realize how grateful that seasonings were invented or discovered.

Because they kind of they transformed food in a wonderful way when learning about meal prepping and switching from eating out and not even eating from fast food for 2 years now. For me and just looking up different recipes with seasonings and styles and appreciating and loving different aromas makes me think it’s a good invention.

Waving Flag – Trip to New York

Think back on your most memorable road trip.

Ahhh its such a long time since I had a long car road trip.

The most visible memory would be visiting my relatives in New York with an invitation to a party.

We were going along Toronto to Buffalo and to New York…

We were with family friends that were invited as well and made it more fun with all the pit stops.

I believe it was around 2009 when the song “Waving Flag” was popular and we sung it all through the road trip.

Plus others 😅

It was first time experiencing the money and cultural shock of  visiting U.S for the first time.

I can still remember getting out a 20 dollar bill for ordering 2 combo McDonald’s chicken meals and finding out it cost 5 dollars….

😂😂That was interesting to hear and relief to pay.

Storytime Before Sleep

What was the last thing you searched for online? Why were you looking for it?

Last thing I searched for was children’s educational bedtime stories.

I searched for it because I was worried about my sister-in-law. She said that both of her kids, my niece and nephew. They are not sleeping well through the night.

And she is getting tired and having baby blues.

I just wanted to help, because I thought maybe adding a routine and making sure they know when to go to bed and signal for that is that most kids like bedtime stories and kind of sleep when their parents are reading it to them. So they can have good dreams and their imagination can go wild.

Storybooks for children are a good investment. Because it really adds to their childhood plus kind of takes away from them being too addicted to technology which even happens to little kids.

It’s like reset not to look at anything just to relax and listen and just drift off to sleep.

I didn’t have any storybooks when I was a kid only when I loved going into the library but I plan on doing that when I have my own family.

Pharse: Like

What is a word you feel that too many people use?

As a millennial living in the twentieth century, with a lot of females, even guys, anything to describe, they would always say the word… like.

It is used in every type of sentence especially when you want to express something or you want to describe an example…Like it’s used quite a lot of times.

Usually in social terms in the popular term, it’s just a quick and usually fashionable way to say.

Like I don’t know

I’m like totally gonna win this.

Like it’s something like I don’t know even like

Like whatever…

I have heard those words and phrases quite a lot.

3 Occupations – Admiration

What profession do you admire most and why?

Teacher

The first job that I admire is teachers because they’re underrated for how they set the course for many individuals. A new generation every year to every decade to every century directs their paths in what they would like for themselves in the future.

I’m sure that some of the people nowadays kind of look back on school whether they were good or bad. And kind of recommend how they had a good teacher to help direct them on who they are. And what makes them happy to consider for the rest of their lives

Doctor

The second job that I admire is doctors in any specialty because they have the knowledge and we’re blessed with such skills that save people’s lives. Watching on TV and experiencing in person is how they’re kind of a support system where a person’s life is at stake. And they can be all of the things at once. They can be a figure of comfort and or they can be an advisor.

They’re developing new technologies and methods and the skills creating a sense of hope for people.

Detectives

For the third job that I admire is a detective, it’s because, well, let’s say it’s good to know how people are thinking, and their skills of observation making sure that nothing can be held back from them. They have a wide range of masses of knowledge in psychology, science, methods of deception, to medicine, to make sure that he was no one pulls a wool over their eyes, which is cool.

I’ve always admired them because they’re the only people who can read you like a book other than lawyers and you can’t lie to them. 😏

A Mix of an Anime World – Alternate

Describe your life in an alternate universe.

I’m such a huge anime fan, that if I had to choose an alternate universe to explain my life in there….

It can be between 2 options, so why not both? 😄

Option 1: Alternative Universe (One Piece)

I wake up on the top of my big pirate ship… 🚢

Sun beams through and one my crew members calls me down for breakfast

Quickly change and get ready and hop on a nearby rope and swing down and land on my vice captain and my medical help and laugh together

And go into the kitchen to a nice meal and loud fussing of my 12 pirate crew

We all laugh and play around

If there is any trouble, I will help defend and fight to get the navy off my back

Escaping and challenging myself to next big threat

So in summary, my life would be carefree and finding adventure and meeting so much people and feeling free on the sea. 😉

Option 2: Alternate Universe (Detective Conan)

Waking up in a big mansion in my house with my family, 2 big brothers and one big sister. 😀

My parents would be well-known and give me more freedom and fewer restrictions.

My brothers would be a police officer high executive and the other would be an entertainer. My sister would be a doctor that is overly cautious.

Me… I would be in high school and working to be a detective like the main character.

Also, I would work with the police department as a consultant to help with cases no matter how dangerous.

I’ll wake up doing the nice routine and say hello my family members. Mom and Dad are off on a business trip but still have the make time to video call us.

My 3 or 4 classmates comes to pick me up for school and we all work together.

I would an acquaintance that I argue, but it will be one of those instances where I argur with him all thr time but don’t know when I start to fall for him

I would have a scientist as friend with a small family friend that helps me and build me different I can use.

I use a scooter or electric scooter to get places and have the wind in my hair where I can  do what I would like.

I would have lots of hobbies, one being karate, karuta or dance that I could go.

Still having responsibilities but feeling more me and better.

Summary in  this alternative would be a smart high school girl detective who helps when there is trouble that lurks in any corner and be sharp like Sherlock Homles or Ms. Marple.

Love the Main Meal….Worth It Together?

What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it?

Well…I’m living in Canada and all the expwnsive taxes with the economy.

Most of the food whether grocery or restaurant is expensive.

Well, I would say, the most, I spent on a single meal….

I don’t feel it is around the price of a normal meal, but it was like three entrees, so maybe so…

I believe it was around $80.00 and it was at a nice restaurant nearby downtown Toronto.

It was a new restaurant. I haven’t heard before, I don’t even remember the name but I can remember it was around 82.00 to 85.00 dollars for just me when the bill came.

And I thought, that was too expensive, with the appetizer being so small.

The only thing that was worth it, was the entree, with just this wonderful grilled salmon. With with some sweet potato fries and another kind of many coleslaw, or I believe it was like a nice salad on the side.

Also the garlic bread was really tasty. 

Even tried other such good sides with small roasted potatoes and the steamed vegetables and there was this wonderful sauce that was chef’s kiss. 💋 👨‍🍳

And then the dessert, even though it was sort of a medium portion. I am a fan of chocolate. I am a chocoholic, so overall, I believe it was a little bit worth it because everything was cooked properly and had nice service with kind gestures.

But it could have been more reasonably priced. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Break Down the Walls… What Do You See

How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you?

I am a person who has a lot of walls up.

Sometimes I find it hard to see myself, including everyone else…

Piece by piece as the wall starts to break down.

I’m quiet and observant, but also can be loud and passionate.

I am always helpful to anyone who needs a hand, but I kind of take on way too much for me to handle.

I’m interested in many activities and hobbies, but also scared to try something new.

I love deep conversations 😌 but can get bored when its the wrong topic.

I love playing around at times….But I take some things too seriously and I mess up.

I overthink and want things to be perfect or I don’t want to do anything wrong. But I learn from mistakes and try not to repeat.

Love classics whether be music, style, events that were great in the past, but live in modern times, and truly try to live in the moment.

I’m cultural and respect tradition…but not old fashioned and understand the importance of how things evolve.

I’m not funny when I try to and funny by incident.

I love to be social but do like when I calm down to try and spend time with myself.

So how should I describe me…

Hmm…

I’m all of those parts and more when I take my time and patience and break down the walls.

Take time to break down the walls
