two faces

So my mom's flying to Vietnam this Monday, despite the fact that the funeral was yesterday. But I do think its a good idea that she goes back to her roots for a while. Well a month really. I'm fine with cooking for my sister and I, but my dad eats like he ever seen food in his life. So thats what gets me a bit worried. Cindy and I decided to go to the rocks for the markets, seeing as today is officially the last one for a while.




I know I'm not supposed to take pictures at MCA but what the heck. I just have to take at least one photo from one visit. I love the painting above, its the same painting but from different perspectives. The first one is of the painting when viewed from the left side, and the second one is of the same painting when viewed from the right. I guess that really says something about perspective.


I happened to run into these lovely ladies at the rocks market this afternoon. Aren't they stunning? I'm sure they have a great sense of character.



I got some macarons at a french patisserie today. And they were really good. Surprisingly olive oil flavoured macaron isn't half bad. I shall have to buy more next time.



Sometimes I miss being a kid, things were so much easier back then. Okay I would've loved to have typed more, but I'm seriously going to fall asleep at my computer. I suppose that is pretty unprecedented for a Friday night...

I've spent my last few days indulging in too much charcoal chicken and an assortment of desserts. So much for going on a diet. I keep saying I'll start jogging, yet my new sneakers just keep collecting dust. I've been pondering what to save up for and a holiday to Antarctica seems rather tempting, I've always dreamt of going there ever since I was a child. I suppose I like to chase after the unconventional. Hope you have a sweet week ahead! Image credit:  impossibleastronaut

Happiness is a never ending quest for many of us. Some never quite find it whilst some spend their entire lives searching for it. Happiness is intangible, you can't see it nor can you touch it. You can't see all things with plain sight, sometimes you have to look much deeper than that.  The most common mistake that people commit is the presumption that happiness is something which must constantly be pursued. Instead of aimlessly searching, we should create our own happiness. Sometimes you must brave the dark hour of reason before you can appreciate all that is before you.  Friends are the very foundation of my entity. Without foundation, I would not exist. This is me writing to give thanks to those who mean anything at all to me. Some of them won't see this at all, but that's fine by me. Thank you for your counsel, encouragement and simply being there.  P.S I have no idea who those guys are in the picture above, but they sure made this a very memorable pict

I can hear the rain slowly falling upon the roof and the trickle of rainwater down the roof gutter. I felt a burning sensation from the antiseptic explode around my grazed knee. I have learned an important lesson, do not cross the road whilst you are tremendously drowsy. Thankfully there were no cars on the road, I picked up my belongings and limped home. It was just a bad week for me. I've secured myself a job over the holiday and I rather look forward to it. I plan to enter the  Canon Photo5  competition, I just haven't had much inspiration the last few days. I don't anticipate on winning but it certainly seems appealing. The competition seems like a great way to challenge one's perception, to be creative, to take something ordinary and turn it into something extraordinary.  I tend to erupt in sheer contempt when someone taunts me, I've learned to conceal that now. I find myself avoiding certain people and situations because I know I can't hold my
