What I Did On My Holiday

My favourite person in the world

Hey guys! Just thought I'd summarise what I got up to on my uni break - despite the fact I didn't get to travel anywhere special, I can't tell you how nice it was just to be able to spend time with my favourite people on a regular basis. And of course, the freedom to watch TV shows and read without feeling guilty. 

Series I watched:

  • House of Cards S2
  • The Newsroom S3
  • Orange is the New Black S3
  • The Killing S1

Books I read (also featured here):
  • A Court of Throne and Roses - Sarah. J, Maas
  • I'll Give You the Sun - Jandy Nelson
  • All The Bright Places - Jennifer Niven
  • We Were Liars - E. Lockhart
  • Dreams of Gods and Monsters - Laini Taylor 
If you can't tell, my favourite genres are contemporary and fantasy YA. My dream in life is to write a successful YA novel (how hard can that be right?), and spend the rest of my life reading and writing. Yup, totally achievable... Oh and if you have a goodreads account, please add me! You can find me at www.goodreads.com/thynguyen97 I need more bookfriends (or friends in general). If you don't have an account, you should really make one because it makes reading even more satisfying when you can track your progress. 

Here's what I got up to when I wasn't in my room reading/watching TV (woo, introvert life): 


Green Tea Bingsoo with James & Jess- we ordered extra red bean and they came individually on a little spade and I think I laughed so hard I teared

Korean Bibimbap on Elizabeth Street

At The Pantry -  coffee never fails to be aesthetically pleasing 

Creamy Bacon Carbonara - cooking with the bf
It was love at first sight, Alfie baby <3

Fellini pizza at Pizza Cafe at UQ - to DIE for

My favourite thing to do: reading in bed in comfy pjs
First time trying Surabing - it's the strangest yet pleasant sensation of eating snowflakes  
First time trying Shouk with Kev- it did not disappoint, highly recommend!
Hannah Banana
Rogue Bar and Bistro - hands down best and most beautiful pancakes I've ever had
Oh what a surprise more coffee
Sushi Train at Garden City before seeing Minions hehe

Eating Ice cream at the Coast on a nice Winter day 

Brandon's 18th - I need my own chocolate fondue pronto

Bare Bones Society with Westside crew 
Yumcha with the fam at Indro
Ever since getting my licence my Maccas consumption has increased tenfold
Mary's 18th Apartment Party
Meet the latest all girl band - watch for our debut album soon
I love this polaroid :3 Thanks to Ray who we forced to stand in the cupboard uncomfortably to take these photos <3

Baby gal Jen 

So much love...
Or not
Birthday gal - who incidentally was destroyed by 10pm, love you Maz
 So, this post was 75% food, what a surprise hahaha. I did warn you my holidays were relatively uneventful - I am really hoping to travel next holidays, but first, to survive the semester and save money (a dire situation to say the least). Anyway, hope you're all well, love Thy :) x
