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!

Nightmare

Weird dream... don't ask :S

Something is brewing!

Yes! We are pregnant! I'm 18 weeks pregnant which means already on my second trimester. It's totally a whole new adventure for both Poussin & I. 

My energy & my appetite are getting better than in the 1st trimester. 

It's a mixed feeling for sure. From stress & anxiety to happy & excitement  (also having a massive sweet tooth tho...)  Thanks pregnancy hormones.

Soooo dats it! Until next time

Good luck along your creative way

New profile pix...ie

It was high time to change my avatar! I got my hair done since 1 year now.

I like drawing lips... Big plump lips (not the fake- Botox- Kardashian lips tho)

Hope you liked it as much as I enjoyed making it. A video is in process. Hope I will be able to upload asap on my YouTube channel.

Good luck along your creative way

Weekend goals

I recently came across a blog post about weekend goals. I knew about monthly goals or weekly goals. But never actually thought about making weekend goals. 

So I'm giving it a try!

Plan with me: Bullet journal setup for August 2019

Ahoy there! Here is my Bullet Journal spread for August 2019. I have been busy lately that my previous Bullet Journal spread was pretty minimalist. I kept it simple. However, I still highly recommend to practice "bujo" (bullet journal) to keep track of what you are achieving or want to achieve.

This month, I've been a little bit fancy & took more time drawing & adding details. I even have goodies for you. Read till the end!

Birthday Vlog/ Short film

Birthday girl

Ditch the coffee. Today is a job for a Mojito!

Winter is officially here. It's getting colder and colder. With that crappy weather, It's so difficult to get out of bed. You feel me?

Hello June

Officially Winter

Chicken Udon noodle soup

I was feeling a bit down yesterday... Until I made myself chicken Udon noodle soup. It is 1 of the easiest & luscious dinner you can make on cold nights. The Kimchi adds a dash of hotness in your mouth. Ouch! So yummy!

Me at the Met Gala 2019

Ok this year I totally freaked out when I saw the Met Gala. I was like..."What the heck"?! Ezra Miller? Jared Leto? PRIYANKA CHOPRA!? wait what is happening?

Now i'm imagined myself walking down the red carpet. How cool it would be.

Productive Weekend

Me & Poussin are normally super busy on Saturdays. Do some house chores, grocery shopping, ...thus adult things! However, last Saturday I decided to change our routine. Weekend should not be stressful. It should be a moment of pure joy and no work time. We should make space for activities to keep a balance.

Revive your breakfast routine

I'm not a food blogger, just a girl who loves breakfast and learnt to make some yummy, healthy and quick morning meal. Today I want to share with you 3 of my best healthy recipes. So let's breakfast!

Let's get crafty!

It may look like random things have been sticked together to form an abstract art. But that's not the case haha. All photos and words were chosen carefully to form what we called a "vision board".

New Challenge

I'm excited to introduce you to this new category on the blog! Since I'm a photography enthusiast,  I will share with you some of my photos here regularly. Feel free to use them as you want (though a small credit acknowledgement would be most appreciated).

My focus for a photography blog is to mainly inspire myself, make something that I love and make me happy... In particular, I needed to have a space where I can share photos of whatever I like for no real purpose at all.

Hoping it inspires you as well. 

Good luck along your creative way!
