A Life in Black and White

am not your usual lady in the neighbourhood. i could be fun-loving and ambitions blazing, yet chilling with a good book in hand. loves audrey hepburn movies, lemon-lime-&-bitters, vintage anything and furniture. am not one effortlessly impressed. i see my goals, my dreams and the enjoyment would lie not merely in the success at the end of the road but in this journey of life. livin` it, lovin` it, keepin` it real. i travel alone, i travel light, in my 20`s - la vie est belle!

Do you ever...?

Right. Sunday. The one day this week (or even for months to come) that I so wished time would halt right there for me. That very moment. Just for me. It was a glimpse of marvel, a slight twinkle in my eye. There. One turn and my lips thinned into a smile. A minute and it was gone. Well, better once lived than never lived at all...

And so there I sat with LX the night before...both of us drifting away into what we both agreed upon as "dream mode" staring into the fireworks distinctly painted against the fullerton...and then we sat around the cushy chairs discussing everything from men to interior designs and holidays. Planning for that much awaited offpeak season...our excitement and enthusiasm building up as we chatted about our desired annual bangkok trip, and LX about how her hubby enjoys shopping with her in Thailand. That's just so sweet...through all our giggles and sharing of our private affairs...it dawned on me that I'm not the only little dreamy gal out there...and that there's one in almost each and every single female...

Thereafter, my night of insomnia dragged on and ended in a dreary sigh slightly after noon. Yet, I shall push on...

After lunch, a quick exit into Forever 21 *yet again* found me fawning over earrings and finally leaving with 2 lovely pairs...I have this penchant for just looking at them and going ga-ga like a little gal...then again, come to think of it, it's not just with earrings, it's everything. And now, I can't get the image of my ring outta there :) The beauty of it? I guess I never ever will... ;)

Happy Lunar New Year!
