Not All Girls Like Pink

Little rattle-me-silly reminders come in the most charming of ways. This one about change came from my dear friend Mel: Meredith Grey: " Change; we don’t like it, we fear it, but we can’t stop it from coming. We either adapt to change or we get left behind. And it hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn’t is lying. But heres the truth: the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Oh, sometimes, change is … everything."  So yes I will heed the great advice of Meredith Grey cause it's time for letting go of some things to make way for new things. And I know we'll be okay, cause our God is still God of all circumstances.

HellooooMonday! The melodic reigns of " Ruin " stirred my morning reverie and I just knew I had to do a Cat Power tribute for Music Monday. Charlyn Marie Marshall aka Chan Marshall or better known as Cat Power is an indie rock/folk rock/alternative rock singer songwriter who has been around for 20 odd years and I think she's pretty amazing! She's an actress too and if you've seen Wong Kar Wai 's 'My Blueberry Nights' , you would have spotted her! This song almost made it to my wedding playlist but my husband would have rolled his eyes and said "emoooooooo".... but anyway, here's Cat Power doing a beautiful cover of "Sea of Love" And here's one where she covers "Wonderwall"

As the folks in my office know, I'm a sucker for GIFs. I loved it from the moment my brother showed me how he made a fish wiggle just with some funky codes on Notepad. Thankfully.... i have Photoshop and Image Ready which provides endless hours of geeky pleasure. :D Photo-booth's at weddings are the bomb! H ere's one of us going up, up and awayyy~!

Now i couldn't wait for Music Monday's to post this video cause I'm just so excited about the awesome combination of a gorgeous song and beautiful dance that's in this. I couldn't find this version of Valerie anywhere! It's one of the best versions I've heard so far. And the dancing... owh the dancing... stops and pauses that fill spaces, movements that draw you and find you holding your breath... These are just some of the few things you'll notice when watching the   Movement Lifestyle videos. Love!

The Molskine collection Notebooks galore! This is really something I'd wanna continue working on. Not merely collecting, but making notebooks too. Also love these notebooks by  Angelicquirk . Do check out her store or catch her at craft markets around PJ/KL. DO check out Field Notes especially if you love everything about notebooks and note-taking. Just discovered Jiam & Co.  and Notbook-Notbuk via Pipit . I've got a serious case of notebook envy. They're beautifullll! (Also available at bazaars and craft markets around PJ/KL/Singapore) Well I'm off to make some of my own.... have a great weekend peeps!

I've been sort of a busy bee since the year began. With, first of all work, and you know - life and all that.  But I've also been tinkering about the house, putting bobs and bits together. I'd very much like to DIY some things for my upcoming wedding and I suppose this gives me a good way to spend my evenings at home aside from watching all the TV shows I'm currently hooked on. And then there's the Golden Globes so of course I like HAVE to watch every single movie that's nominated. Right? Well, many scoffed at the DIY idea cause, you know, I'm quite a bum. But I'm truly enjoying it. And I'm moving along just fine. Here's a sneak peek of what I'm working on. alphabet stamps This one's easy peasy. Just a lot of stamping to do. But I probably shouldn't attempt this after 3 cups of coffee! I smudged like an entire column  >.< And here are the corsages and boutonnieres I'm trying out. It's still a work in...

This was a good find and has been on loop for a few weeks. :) Love their harmonising. Should totally check out their live session:  http://www.facebook.com/theimpatientsisters
