What a week!

Most of my week was spent at a conference for work in Vancouver. It was really insightful and a lot of fun to chill with my colleagues. :)

Tuesday - Went to Vancouver and checked out Konbiniya for some onigiri and snacks. Then went to the winking judge to chat for a bit and headed to work after. After work we went to EXP for some video-game inspired food! Walked back to our hotel and I couldn't sleep well after that, there were so many noises from the AC, the fridge, and the outside. I realized that I might have had too many pillows on my bed, so was pretty determined to fix that after.

Wednesday - Woke up early in the morning to go to the gym. I did a bit of a workout for 15 minutes (lol), because I really wanted to go on a treadmill to do a run but they didn't have one. :( I thought about doing a run outside, but it was raining... so I ran up a few stairs and went back to my room. Went to work, then after work I went to go meet up with my friend in Metrotown. We got udon and sushi at Sekai and went shopping in uniqlo, deciem and looked around sugarfina and got some candy samples. :) It was fun chilling with my friend for a bit as we caught up from the last time we saw each other. Afterwards, I went to Shenanigans to go hang out with some colleagues and sing karaoke. Not too much my thing as it was in an open space instead of a private room, but I persevered and it was still fun!

Thursday - Had a good hotel breakfast, went to work, then went to Konbiniya again and also checked out Miniso (I wanted to see if they had my humidifier there, but they didn't), totally forgot to check out Muji as I was going to get souvenirs there, then went to Lauduree as my coworker wanted to grab some macarons. They were pretty!! Afterwards, went to a work function and danced the night away. Lots of good food at Parq Vancouver. Went home after midnight and then went to bed.

Friday - Went back home and got Subway for lunch, then took a nap for a few hours and went to Annex Ales to chill out. I was pretty exhausted after work so we just relaxed afterwards in typical Friday fashion.

Saturday - Went to see Incredibles 2. It was really good! Can't believe it's been 14 years since the last one. Also went to try the La Verde burger and then went to Wow Bakery for some baked goods. Got a matcha white chocolate croissant which was freaking delicious, and a peanut butter cream bun. Also went to Chinook mall for a bit, as the boif wanted to shop for jacket. I was pretty tired though, so sat around a lot and window shopped a lot as I bought a few things in vancity already and didn't really want to spend more. We had lunch from Hula Poke and then went home to relax. Ate our baked goods, and then I took another nap again.

Today we didn't really go out. Got up, ate breakfast, showered, made poke for lunch, then ate snacks, and I napped again... walked to Luke's to try to find bagged soap, but they didn't have any. Did some gardening and ordered pizza and wings. Watched Food Wars and Westworld, also did the laundry and dishes. I also meal prepped too and made a card. Yay! Talk about super productive day even tough we didn't do much outside.

Going to go back to the gym again soon. Feeling gross. Not feeling so exhausted anymore :)
