April 2016 edition of The Bright Vision Journal. Enjoy! 
Keep your EYES on the prize.
It’s hump day, everyone needs a little bit of motivation to get through the 2nd half of the week.
Take some time to relax and check out this TEDtalk. This talk starts with the sentence…
“Vision is the most important and prioritized sense that we have.” Hm…intriguing.
BVO Eats! – Wähfles
Easing off the chocolate and candies we consumed in February has been difficult. If you are like us and are still craving something sweet this month, we recommend heading to Wähfles Desserts & Coffee (5751 Pine Ave, Chino Hills, CA). We won’t judge — we promise.
Wähfles aren’t just for desserts though. Its savory sandwiches, including breakfast sandwiches, also center around its star, the waffle. Don’t like their sweet or savory options? No problem — you can build your own masterpiece! At only $4.25 for a generous half-sized dessert (or $6.45 for a full-sized sandwich), you can pile on all the items you love. The waffle will hold all the toppings your heart desires without getting soggy. So, get crazy and get creative!
Spotlight Dish: The BVO Wähfle (our creation)
The house wähfle (half size) with nutella, strawberries, bananas, almonds, and honey. We went a slightly healthier route, but this was equally satisfying. Crème Brûlée Wähfle and Salted Ganache Wähfle — we will be back for you!
BVO Tip: Bring your student ID (or bring a student with one) for 10% off.

Grand Opening Party
Our grand opening party was a huge success! Thank you to everyone who stopped by. Thank you to Jason from Tom Ford and Wendy from NVISION. Here are some highlights from last Saturday. Enjoy!
BVO Eats! – Ojiya
Here at BVO, we are huge fans of Japanese cuisine so we are especially excited to share our experience at Ojiya Chino Hills (4183 Chino Hills Pkwy, Chino Hills, CA) for the first post of BVO Eats!
Sashimi, sushi, bento boxes, broiled fish, and soups — don’t let the long wait deter you because this restaurant has it all. We are still drooling over the Kaisen Zousui (rice porridge with salmon roe and crab), our spotlight dish. The “porridge” has the consistency of soup, but once we tasted the broth, we had no complaints. There are generous portions of crab which adds a mild sweetness to the soup, and it was the perfect compliment to our sushi. This dish can easily be shared by two, but be warned that you will be fighting over the last few drops! To summarize, Ojiya Chino Hills was awesome!
Spotlight Dish: Kaisen Zousui
BVO Tip: Make sure to go early to avoid the crowds. The wait for the sushi bar is generally shorter, but the menu selection will be limited (you can order the Kaisen Zousui though).

Golden Globes Recap
Here are some take-home messages from the 2016 Golden Globes:
1. Glasses are important, just ask Denzel.
Fumbling to read his “thank you” notes, Pauletta Washington (Denzel’s wife), kindly reminded Denzel that he needed his glasses. Alonzo Harris replied, “Glasses ain’t got NOTHING on me!” Just kidding, but Denzel does admit, “Yeah, I do need my glasses.” Classic example of how valuable a pair of prescription glasses can be.
2. Glasses can be a fashion statement.
Unlike most Globe winners, Maura Tierney accepted her Best Supporting Actress award wearing glasses. Mackenzie Wagoner of Vogue said it best, “With the addition of the simple accessory, The Affair actress’ clean skin, nude lipstick, and swirl of peach blush assumed a smartly confident edge—and isn’t that what an award-winning star should look like?”
