That time of the year...

It’s that time of the year again to recount the past year and set resolutions for the next. I’m not going to recount how 2011 has been. To me, the past is past. So… whether it’s been good or bad, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that I’ve grown a little, learnt a little, hurt a little, laughed a little, sang a little, danced a little, dreamed a little, loved...

Spaces Love...

I’ve been looking at a lot of photos of interior design on tumblr. I realized that the designs I like have a few things in common. 1. Space. Lots of it. I like the concept of open spaces. 2. White. I like white. I like things to be white. Spaces to be white. If my mum sees this I’m sure she’ll roll her eyes immediately. To her, white means hard to clean. But to me, white...

The process of... maturing.

Lately, an outing with one of my girl friends has enlightened me that no matter how much I want to deny it, I have indeed… matured (definitely a much better and kinder word than aged). We both agreed that we have, unknowingly, transcended unto a whole new level. A level where aimlessly walking around in shopping malls becomes tiresome. Window shopping becomes meaningless unless there is an...

About writing

It’s been a really long time since I’ve updated this space. Not that I don’t want to. It’s just that… in my mind, those thoughts, ideas, and concepts, albeit numerous, are clear. Yet when I start to attempt to put them down in words, they magically start to jumble up, playing hide and seek with me, till it all becomes one big incoherent mess, not unlike a ball of...

十年一刻

可能忙了又忙可能伤了又伤可能无数眼泪在夜晚尝了又尝可是换来成长可是换来希望如今我站在台上可能耗尽坚强可能历经沧桑可能我的疯狂暂时不得到原谅可是我知道啊可是我明白啊是我的执著搏来在你面前歌唱唱着我的幻想唱着我的荒唐唱着与你分享打通我们的窗

Laziness. Weather. Breakouts.

I have been wanting to blog about 2 wonderful cafes I found here in Shanghai but I’m just so lazy to go and transfer the photos and what not. I’m just lazy. Hahaha… But the 2 cafes are just simply great. I love it. 秘密花园 and 小小花园。 They are sister cafes… both have great ambience but I love 秘密花园 better because it’s quieter. Haha… Both reminds me of Casual Poet....

2nd day of exploring

Here’s part 2 of my little “escapade”. Heh. 1st stop. Zn Silver Maker. 徐汇区天平路45号 This is a store that sells silver jewellery. Stuff are mainly imported from Japan. You can design and make your own jewellery too. Darn cool. However, when I was there, the boss wasn’t in. It was some auntie tending the shop. So I didn’t do any DIY stuff. I did get a ring though. A...

1st day of exploring

Since I’m given a few days off, I decided to do some exploring on my own. 1st stop. St. Ignatius Cathedral of Shanghai (聖依納爵主教座堂). Xujiahui District, Puxi Road. (Pardon the stupid date on the photo. I didn’t realize that my dad’s camera had the date all wrong. And I can’t remove it. URGH.) This cathedral is within walking distance from where I stay. A beautiful...
