Valentine's Day -- A Double Dose of Love

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you! It certainly didn't feel like Valentine's Day today. Mine was rather nondescript like any other work day. How did you spend your Valentine's Day?

Something worth noting this year is that Valentine's Day and the Lantern Festival (元宵节) fall on the same day this year.

The Lantern Festival, which is also known casually as Chinese Valentine's Day, is a festival celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunar calendar marking the last day of the lunar new year celebration. The last time that happened was 19 years ago! Hence you could imagine how many Chinese couples have chosen to get married on this date?

Interesting facts aside, I was simply mesmerized by this whimsical pastel photo shoot. It was featured on Style Me Pretty Australia. I've always had a thing for pastel coloured desserts as they always look so good in photos. I can't decide which is my favourite detail as I love them all. Which are your favourite details?

Pinning & Instagramming

I wished there were 48 hours a day so that I could spend 24 hours as per a normal day and the remaining 24 hours to pin pin pin on Pinterest and add filters to photographs on Instagram. Pinning and selecting photos to upload on Instagram is just so addictive and time-consuming.

I've neglected my Pinterest account for quite a while until the recent slew of email notifications of likes and repin for one of my pins sparked my curiosity. This pin suddenly became so popular after Iron Man 3 hit the screens that I was receiving notifications from Pinterest almost every hour for the past 2 days.

From there, I spent the last 2 hours pinning, rearranging my boards and added new boards instead of sleeping. I'm so pleased with my page now and I'm completely in tune with this bitch below. Don't you think I pin awesome shit too? Wahahahaha...

After opening myself up on Instagram, here are some pictures which I've shared with the rest of the Instagram world.


3 minute doodle and colour inspired by my friend's back view.






Two weeks ago, I was sick and sleeping my cold away for the whole weekend. I hated my nose which was clogged yet leaking and when the drowsy medicine caused me to sleep till 5pm.






Special delivery kitty in a box. No, this isn't my cat. If only I had a kitty in my mail!






Maiden clamming session in my pretty funky boots. Yes, the bimbo in me has to clam in style.
Fishing = catch fish Prawning = catch prawns Clamming = catch clams (dig for clams during low tide)






One of my favourite quotes from Dita Von Teese teaches that if you are already at your best and there are still people who hate you, it is their problem, not yours.






Featuring my favourite emoticon on the Scream Spoof Painting.






Wheet~! Gal pal @gerrachong and I borrowed the same book at different period and it is soooooo comical to find her receipt in the book! No, we didn't borrow Secrets of the Ancient World. Look at the receipt carefully and you could tell.






And finally my most recent upload! Really thrilled to bits by my new kitty ear phone jack. I keep finding it missing only to see it on my hubby's iPad or mobile phone.
