Life is a Maze, Love is a Riddle

These are long overdue! But I hope it was worth the wait. :)

This calms me

I just had the urge to take some pictures after dinner today-but really, it's to procrastinate from studying for my accounting final taking place tomorrow. :) Here's a few quick snapshots.

So I walked out to my backyard...

and saw that cherry tomatoes are planted and will blossom soon!

Ah, summer.

My summer will arrive on June 1, at 6:30pm, when my last exam concludes my third year of university.

Hiatus

Sorry for the 2 week hiatus from my beloved Mind Speak! I was studying for exams, writing exams, and then going to work everyday and going out a lot. Haha. :) I just really wanted to make a post tonight so I didn't even bother editing any of my pictures. They are as is! I will be starting next semester this week, so the next post might be another little while. I will try my best to push myself to take more pictures and post! Thanks for following this pblog, it means a lot to me.

prettiest tea pot I've ever seen

I LOVED that restaurant. It's so chic. :D

Day and Night

The city can look so different between the day and the night. For winter days, I think I prefer the nights because the clear skies bring out the street lights better while the excess amount of snow on the ground reflects and blind my eyes during the day. I really can't wait till spring's here - when I can walk out without bundling up with my scarf and mittens and etc., (not that I don't like winter fashion, I love it actually, but sometimes it's too much work).

Anyway, if there are any delays in my updates, that's because I am busy "studying" for my finals this upcoming week. Oh dear, how I dread studying.

I was real "hardworking" at my cubicle ;)

I just hate how the grey sky and snow just wash all the colours away...

Herme$!

work of art.

Oh yes, and Happy Valentine's Day!

Traditions

This past weekend was Chinese New Year and as part of family tradition, we always buy sweets/snacks, make cakes, and bow to the Buddha Gods (no, I'm not religious). Just thought I would share with you some photos that reflect the biggest Chinese cultural celebration of the year.

The pot where we place the incense after praying.

You've probably seen this somewhere before - the lucky cat that brings in the cash.

I found this to be super cool - who knew that they'd get creative and have a word embossed on an apple! It means "get rich". (Yes, Chinese people like money.)

My lovely mother. :)

And if you notice that the tone of my pictures are a lot cooler and not as vibrant, that's because I'm playing around with photoshop a bit. (Trying to learn how to use it!)

Sorry for the lack of updates again; I want to post more frequently too! Thanks for visiting.

Still Life

Here is the second post as promised - just more macro pictures taken at home. Can't wait till I venture outdoors. (Just wish it wasn't so cold outside). I hope these pics don't get too boring for you! :)

I think this picture gives off a romantic feeling. :)
