a dozen pink balloons.

I have a slight obsession with balloons. Maybe because they are visually a delight to see and just remind me of happy occasions. As simple as that. I couldn't resist when I read about a proposal story (no, it's real, not a story!) that actually involved balloons and totally had to post about it here.

Lo & Behold! I LOVE eye-candy!

Thanks to classic bride, i decided to check out {Blue moon events}

jcrew goes to greece.

i love greece. there's something about turqoise waters and white washed structures with blue domes. jcrew's latest wedding collection fashion spread was shot in the greek isles, and of course, i couldn't resist and HAD to put 'em up here. i love the soothing yet vibrant, spring colors.

{valentine weekend}

g and i never celebrated the day to begin, so i decided to inject some humor into the whole thing.

... it started off with kate spade.

& spongebob cupcakes

also, a few things came up. so sat was done in the blink of an eye.

sunday began with some disaster in the kitchen.

chocolate pound cake topped with white chocolate & a little rasberry. it doesn't sound appetizing come to think of it. what was i thinking!?

& then i got ready for a baby shower.

for some reason, i caught myself smiling while poring through teeny weeny baby clothes before i got to this pair of nugget shoes. just too cute.

Everything is alright.

I am NOT kidding. I absolutely love being busy and this week has just been crazy. I am planning to be done with most of my to-dos by tomorrow so that the weekend can be fully dedicated to my 2 luvs. Blogging being one of them, I am dying to post what I have been up to the past few days. I also promised batman I'll cook for him on Sat. OMG. What am i doing!!!!!? So till the next update, I leave you with gorgeous-my-kind of photos by Hillary the Mammal via Flickr. Flickr is a treasure trove.

Humble Beginning.

I'm really honoured to have 3 blog followers *update* 4 and counting! and I'm proudly displaying them at the sidebar. I blog on the side and I do have a day job, but I love LOVE LOVEEEEEEEEEE clicking away, poring over tons of other blogs so that I can get inspired and feed my blog so much so that sometimes I do get distracted while I'm at work (I think I have attention-deficit disorder, it just went undiscovered when I was in school!). Anywayz, I observed that I do have regular readers, almost everyday but of course, I can't be sure if its the same people from a particular city/town that are coming back each time. If you could, pls let me know who you are so that I can put a face (if not, a name/website to a city/country) *lol*

- Chicago, Illonois

- Newark, New Jersey

- Singapore

- Plano, Texas

- Brooklyn, NY

Do let me know if there is anything you'd like to see and I'd love to know what you guys are up to.

On a side note, I'm actually dizzy after an overdose of eye-candy at Fleurs. This is from me to you. Hope you like flowers too!

Have a GREAT weekend!

Orchid Seduction.

"When we stopped to rest and Tony tried to figure out what was wrong with his compass, I asked him what he thought it was about orchids that seduced humans so completely that they were compelled to steal them and worship them and try to breed new and specific kinds of them and then be willing to wait for nearly a decade for one of them to flower. 'Oh, mystery, beauty, unknowability, I suppose, ' he said, shrugging. 'Besides, I think the real reason is that life has no meaning. I mean, no obvious meaning. You wake up, you go to work, you do stuff. I think everybody's always looking for something a little unusual that can preoccupy them and help pass the time."
