HAPPY OLD THINGS -

there's just something about old buildings that i love. 

looking at their facade alone makes me think of the things they weathered through the years. 

looking at one of these buildings is kinda like looking at someone's face.

as they speak, you study their faces and read between the lines. 

no pun intended.

CHOW TIME!

chinese new year is here. 

you kinda know/feel it when you eat more and at shorter intervals.

happy that i got mum's brekkie the day before to last me till a number of days later till i get to eat home cooked food again.

HEART COOKIES!

this picture marries two huge occasions, one, a custom, and the other a culture, yet both celebrations in their own right; perfectly. 

counting down to valentine's day and chinese new year in 5. 

it's a triple whammy for me, because it's also my daddy's special day. 

oh, did i mention that it is also a sunday and happy church day? 

it just keeps getting better. 

love is in the air.

WAVES MAKE YOU STRONGER.

i went for a swim like i usually do every monday.

it's a pretty good rest thing for me.

from afar, i saw a bigger guy coming alongside me in the opposite direction. 

and oh i saw those waves coming.

as they drew closer to me, those waves, i began to pull my strokes with greater force, quicken my momentum and kick a little harder to ensure that i kept on track and oh, didn't swallow any water. 

and that's when it came to me. 

how waves make you stronger. 

you might struggle a little to keep your balance, perhaps push yourself a little harder, or maybe even put in a little more to keep yourself on course.

but they most certainly won't kill you. 

oh but when they pass, you'll realize that you've just gotten a little bit tougher.

thank you for the waves that have made me stronger.

HOLD ON TIGHT.

i am about to hit the sack. 

so much has happened over the last few days...mixed stuff.

just really wanna share this cause it really made my night.

hope it makes yours - day or night, wherever you are. 

xoxo

*hold on tight

THOSE LOVE SEEDS

it's funny how i've been to the club time and again but never noticed these seeds. 

it's kinda like doing the same thing over again but realizing that there's always more to discover each time you look.

it's cool that life is a mystery. 

you get to be a part of it as a new chapter begins. 

i think i wouldn't really want to read a book if i knew the ending already. 

watch life enfold, with me. 

xoxo

in an instance, i can see FURTHER.

finally got to wear these! :) 

happy. 

they're a challenge to walk over pot holes though :X

but i still love em, anyways. 

xoxo
