Sunshine after the rain?

I thought I’ll post a short note here. I’ll be away until March 11 for my final mocks, I’m actually already having my exams now. So I wouldn’t be too active here until after my paper on the 11th. I’m still rather alive at Twitter, so you can find me there. I’ve been cracking my head for the next layout but still can’t make a good one I like. The header image is more or less completed (I think some of you had a sneak preview) . But I just can’t seem to fit the content background and navigation into the design. Nevermind, I shall worry about that later.

And something to add this short post, I took this last evening (click to see full size photo). It’s been raining almost everyday and it’s my first time seeing the sunset behind those dark clouds. Perhaps this might meant that I’m going to see sunshine after my exams?

Porcelain Heels

New Monalisa Glasses

Before I start one of my little “talks of the day” again. Have a look at the tiny shoes on the left. It was a gift from mum when we went “exploring” last Friday. We walked from Lavender (to collect my new passport) all the way to Bugis and we chance about this pottery shop that sell beautiful potteries and household wares. I just happen to saw this pair of porcelain shoes on sales at SGD 4.90 and it’s a beauty. I don’t wear such heels (to be exact, I don’t really wear heels at all) so I think I’ll have one of these at home to admire.

And surprise surprise… I got myself new glasses with the GST credits from the government. I’m contributing to the economy (this is my excuse for everything now). I got these beautiful Monalisa glasses for SGD 200 (click on the thumbnail to view the full size photo), I love them even though they make me look like a nerd, the lenses are a bit too large for my face but please tell me I look okay. I am starting to feel that the frame is a bit too large but I still love it a lot. It has little crystals at the side. The colour is wrong in the photo though, it’s more metallic purplish pink rather than red and it isn’t as bright as the photo looks. Mr Chewy isn’t going to like it. He hate me in framed glasses. I use to wear frame-less glasses in the past. I place the nerdy photo of myself under the cut, I don’t wish to scare you off you know.

I seriously feel that I need more than 24 hours a day, 48 would be good. I still haven’t started preparing for my exams and I should be doing it right now. -_- Right, I’m going to start tonight by finishing my MA tutorial for Wednesday and then start my CF Chapter 2 on Wednesday. I have only 7 weeks. I shall draw my moods and happiness graph this weekend, Cecelia has given me permission to use her idea :P . It’s torturing trying to study now. And with Chinese New Year around the corner, it’s too hard for me to concentrate. My mind is always wandering off thinking about what clothes to wear for CNY, what decorations to get for the living room, and mostly thinking about how fun it would be! :heart:

And some good news … Missy has been accepted into the QBee again after 4 long years! I spend a few hours putting up my new quilt. It’s my favourite animal – The Panda! I’m looking forward to meeting the bees and their beautiful quilts and maybe at the same time learn a few pixeling skills from the masters.
