I choose positivity

I woke up that day telling myself; Drink that coffee & be that gurl who has her shit together!

outfit of the...week #ootw

My outfit of the week #ootw. Large t-shirt & no pants... because nothing fits at this point. I am already 39 weeks & 4 days pregnant. 🤰 Which means any DAY! Wait? did my water broke? No Laurie just peed on yourself >.<

Oh crap!

Morning coffee elixir

It's been a while since my last illustrations. It took me approximately 1 week. I remember back in 2016 when it took me only 2-3 hours (have you seen my speedpainting on Valak? Click here to watch the video)

I learned how to make Farata via Whatsapp video call

In the past couple of weeks, I've been experimenting quite a bit in the kitchen. From Scones, bread or Bao bun which was a... complete disaster! 

Free wallpaper: Tissue paper

I had fun drawing tissue paper this morning. Dunno why people were going crazy about the latter. Then came the idea to make the drawings as desktop & mobile wallpapers. 

What do you think? They are FREE to use.

You can download them HERE. I've made in two colours:  Blue & dark brown.

Let's talk... Confinement

Hello guys, hope you're fine & day 3 of confinement is going well, safe at home. The moment we heard about a case of Covid-19 in Mauritius, I decided to work from home. So today is actually day 4 for me. I can say that we are living in a weird, stressful & scary situation right now.

Before Confinement

The 1st day was a nightmare. The moment we woke up, I looked at my phone & bang! Breaking news! I knew it! (I didn't watch the TV the night before, I knew something was wrong. Why our Prime Minister would make a press conference at 22hr? I Just wanted to have a good sleep).

Poussin was at home with me koz we can't take the risk of being sick, my due date is coming soon! I was panicking. The media didn't help at all duh! I stay glued to my phone. Reading & watching all news. Whatsapp groups were overloaded. Friends, families & colleagues sending all kinds of news.  Some were fake tho.

Day 1

Having to work kept me busy from scrolling through social media & not to read whatsapp messages every 2 minutes (except urgent matters). I stay informed by watching MBC & official sites.

Early morning reflections

Woke up very early a morning (4 AM) only to realised that there were only 14 weeks left until labour! LABOR! I have so much things to do. Baby bedroom, save money, buy baby stuff, declutter, making home safe for baby, laundry (laundry? Don't ask)... Also, thinking I would be hell of a pain! A human being would come out of my vajayjay!

Then in my anxiety attack, little one gave me a kick. I became aware of my hormones. I took a deep breath, took out my bullet journal. I wrote down all my to do list for:

• Things to do/buy 
• My hospital bag

Ouffff stupid hormones! It was high time to get this list out of my head. 

#Toonmechallenge

I saw this challenge few days ago through my Insta feed. So I jumped the bandwagon of the Toon Me Challenge too!

It was hard not be be creepy, especially the eyes. Let me know if you have done it too.


Happy Sunday People!

Unexpected shot

That was an unexpected shot. I was in the car at Rose hill.  Saw this. I was quick enough to take my camera out & click!. A few seconds later, the traffic light turned green.

Hope this year I will be able to take more of these unexpected shots.


Good luck along your creative way

Happy New Year & Highlights

It's been a hot minute since my last blog post. I'm so excited to be back at it again! Happy New Year... 10 days later. I should be banned for saying that :S

Every year, it's pretty much the same; dinner at home with friends & families. However, for the 1st time, we spent the New Year's eve at Domaine Anna. We thought Cyclone Calvinia would spoil the party. Thanks god the weather has improved significantly!

But today's blog is about highlights of these last 10 years. Here we go!
