For the past month I’ve had a stuffy nose and swollen left eye. It doesn’t bother me too much— I can still see my computer screen and the swelling is not that noticeable— but I went to get it checked out by my eye doctor for reassurance.
I’ve never had allergies before, so I was pretty surprised when she told me that there’s something in the San Francisco air that I’m allergic to. I asked her if I moved to some place else, say, Paris or NY, would I be cured? And she said maybe! It depends on what’s there. I understood this to mean yes.
Lately I’ve been trying to think of what I’m exposed to on a daily basis here, that I was not in Los Angeles:
1. Clean air
2. Fog
3. California Cuisine
4. Walking long distances (i.e. two blocks or more)
5. Homeless people
I’m going to have an allergy test done in two months so we’ll see if my guesses are correct.

When I went to use the public restroom there was a line for the men’s, but no line for the women’s.

Hi, I'm Mindy. People who meet me and then happen to stumble upon my blog are usually surprised that I have things to say because I'm quiet. Yes, I actually have thoughts. I have feelings and emotions too, believe it or not. more ↓
People who know me will say that I’m loud, too nice for my own good, and show signs of someone with a mild case of autism.
I grew up with two older brothers and no friends, which means my childhood was spent bouncing between PC, NES, and Playstation games. I consider myself a casual gamer– I never leave home without my DS. My favorite video game character will always be Quina Quen from Final Fantasy 9.
Once upon a time, I studied abroad in Paris and loved it so, so much. I think about Paris on a bi-hourly basis. I now live in San Francisco, but hope to move to New York someday.
The name of my website comes from a Teen Girl Squad episode.
I love pugs, Kinder Eggs, traveling, and shy people.
I don’t like spiders, horseradish, driving, and being shy. less ↑
