Found a pretty stone at a beach, (not sure what kind?). I didn't make a hole, so tried to cage wire it. Not bad for my first time! #wirewrapstone #accessory #pendant #bluestone #naturalstone

When I need to think, I always come here. Today was such a beautiful day, everyone was thinking same thing? Waiting for sun to come down, but moon already started showing itself. #sunset #pittockmansion #peacefulmind (at Pittock Mansion)

Happy Friday and happy girls day (hinamatsuri, 🎎dolls festival in Japanese). My friends brought some Japanese sweets from Japan, so pretty and tasty 😋Cerebrating to be born as a girl and our spirits are forever girls 👧#dollsfestival #japanesesweets #girlsday #forevergirl

Love the smell of coffee (but not smokey or over roasted) and this open space frees me from everything for a moment. My coffee is ready to be served (in a few). #freshbrew #coffee #freeme #relaxingmoment (at Coava Coffee Roasters)

This doggy was waiting for the owner quietly and patiently. But he (I think) knows that the owner comes back and get him so there was no worry. I can picture him wagging the tail and maybe jumping a little bit when he sees his partner. Sometime I wish we can be just simple like this. No game, no trick, and be with a buddy can love and trust. #simplyhappy #trust #buddy

I did it!! My very first time my toes touched my head. I really believe now, if you believe you can make it and keep trying, it will happen. I never thought I could do this because of my bone structure... still need to work on my second side, but will happen (hopefully) soon, just keep practicing.

It's pouring down rain but my heart is so warm. I don't have family here but I am grateful that I have friends who always watch my back. And yoga. Always available for me whenever I need it. Learning be kind to people and myself, how to let go things I lost, and seek new opportunities and freedom. Day 23 #thegratitudechallenge @kinoyoga @beachyogagirl #thanksgiving

I have a Friday off, so catching up for Day 10&11, #thegratitudechallenge @kinoyoga @beachyogagirl still working on pigeon pose, created with a hair tie💕😅 I am confused, sad, anxious but still have hope everything works out if I stand up myself and do what I believe. I am thankful for people around me, they have stood by me to get through my difficult time. I want to make a choice not because I didn't have a choice, because I want that happen. Be honest, don't hurt people and be happy 😊 #thankful #happyfriday #camelpose #ustrasana #kingpigeon

Asian witch and spiderweb birthday cake specially crafted by Le Cookie 🐒. Three layers of almond sponge cake, chocolate Ganache, fresh fruit covered with Raspberry frosting 🎂😋😝 what else you could ask? They did a beautiful job, too bad you can't see well side painting, even a little spiders look real! #birthdaycake #halloween #witch #spiderweb #lecookiemonkey #pastery #bakery (at Le Cookie Monkey)

Learning about autoimmune protocol. We live in such a convenient world that helps us but also hurts us as well. Keeping healthy gut for example, if we eat the way my grandma used to do, we would be healthier... no time to prep food? @newseasonsmarket nutritionist showed us some products we can pick up from their stores and also shared a week recipe that I can try. I am excited to see how my body changes and feels next week! #autoimmune #fermentedfoods #leakygut #probiotics (at New Seasons Grant Park)

One man show "An evening with Jason Alexander and his hair". He is the one of the actors that earned his career and status by his passion, effort and talent. He made me think that believing in yourself and pausing your passion with hard work (and some luck of course) anything makes possible. Was fun performance with wonderful @oregonsymphony! @ijasonalexander #musical #seinfeld #broadway (at Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall)
