BOOM BOOM POW

Have been learning Photoshop at snail speed.... (it's never too late right?)
Here I am, presenting my cousin!

PLAN AHEAD

It's that time of the year where the excitement of starting a brand new schedule rises. You start by filling in all your loved ones' birthdays and wrap your head around the planning for the upcoming months. I'm very grateful for 18-month schedules :)

Am I the only one still manually writing down all my appointments??

While I'm at it, this is currently on loop...

TRILOGIES

I am still unsure why trilogies have all of a sudden made it to the window display of every bookstore. I meant to post these while I was reading but I got carried away heh.

Anyhow, a summary of my "currently reading" collection.... the 6 books that I finished within 3 weeks' time. In that order too. I have definitely set a personal record reading time there.

There's a slight emptiness in me now that I've finished reading them all. No more squinting my eyes while eagerly picking up every single word from the PDFs via my iPhone. Maybe it's time I find another set of books and dive right in.

Moving back...

The first thing I found out once I sat down at the office this morning was that an old friend has decided to move back to Hong Kong. We can finally improve our past meetup frequency, which was annually.

Very exciting news indeed. I cannot wait! Definitely categorizing this under festivities!

5 DIYs

1) Macrame bracelet (after my miserable failures at making friendship bracelets when I was younger, I am considering to give this one a try!)
