Sunday Love Notes

Long Distance Relationship ... its a challenge and "easy" is not a word to describe it . 

Conquering the challenge, flourishing the feelings and nurturing the love are the key to a successful one ...

...although within those three there are still tens of sub-categories!

Although its a path I object to at first, but sometimes falling for our own Mystery-Man can get out of our control and our feelings takes over and things that you may not seem to do, like, approve of ...it takes place...and you allow it . 

Why? ...coz at the end of the day, you know that being your Mystery-Man is what matters...coz after all, he's the one that makes you smile, giggle and all happy right?

.......and that's what mine did last night!

I got a package from him..gifting me :- 

1. Love Notes : to be opened every Sunday until he comes! ...so its a lil weekly countdown calendar which not only has notes of the lil word dedications he has for me...but also pieces of puzzles! (which will be revealed week-after-week! ..so stay tuned!)

2. Antique Key Necklace with a Pink Rose : ...with a whimsical floral origami folded heart which represents the key to his heart! Which i think is completely darling!

3. Cutest Card from M.I.L.K which adorably quotes :- 

" a HUG is the perfect gift, one size fits all " 

Which is true! So i encourage you to hug-it-out with someone today!

Have you ever had lil' surprising gifts like these? 

If so, from who? and what was it? =)

Love to hear your version of "Sunday Love Notes" =)

Rough Sketches of New Ideas

New ideas that came to me past midnight ...
Yes, i'm known to be a "night person" ...full of creativity and fresh thoughts of ideas when the moon shines at its best and the sun appears in a different part of the world...
Here are some of my new sketches i have done in about cinq-minuit..
First : Whimsical Lampshade Chandeliers .
It can be just a simple D-I-Y at home..having different patterns and colours of fabrics for each lampshade - although different but it comes together in united harmony ..
I like to think of a shabby-chic style one .. one with soft stripes, second with mini floral patterns, another is an adorable polkadot and the last is a flower patterns with a hunch of bold colours .
It's definitely something i need to try!
Second : Tall Corner Lamps as Bedsides .
A room always has that piece that catches the eye first ...and this is a new way!
A definite eye-catches and the "accental element" in the room .
Can't wait to try it!

Glass House at MGM Grand Macao

If you're ever in Macao .. you must visit the MGM Grand ..
They have this huge glass house that is decorated beyond words..and just leaves you speechless!
Buildings are built with an inspired Spanish influence!
Its an outdoor garden within the glass house!
Think of birdcages, flowers, garden seats, plant and trees ... and giveaway is there's birds within the cages!!! -actual birds ... creative but pity because the air conditioning is super cold!
It is a gorgeous place at day time and so romantic with Christmas lights at night time ... there are bars, lounge and restaurants on the side so its a beautiful place for a definite date!
Just lovely!

The Luxe Manor - Hong Kong

So .. a part of my break, i went to Hong-Kong sometime in August and stayed at this adorable lovable sweet hotel =)
The Luxe Manor Hotel which is part of the Small Luxurious Hotel of the World ..
May i just say that I am in LOVE LOVE LOVE with the room's interior?
So glam in a simple way...and you wouldn't believe how creative they are in creating this lil' whimsical room!
Bold colours, unique repro furnitures, gold framed TV and stickers stickers stickers - you can see them on the fireplace and frames on the wall!

How creative is that???

Making a Come-Back!

Dear Darlings,

Hello .. I'm back ~ finally back .. took a long break and slowly figured out what i wanted and needed in life .. wasn't easy and I'm still in the process of all that ..
I was browsing through so many whimsical blogs last night and i truly have missed blogging my interiors or even just my feelings .. i guess blogs are just the diary of today's generations .
I have so much to share within these months i've been away ... and yes! most of them are things so pretty =) and some even just encourage you to dress your room!
Though i am still in the process ... here are some hiccups i've managed to decipher :-

1. Life : day-to-day lately i just been feeling one of those days with too much worry and you wish you could sleep all day and at times never waking up at all - yes! it does sound depressing and not very "me" at all.. Thank GOD that i have come to realization and i do want to make a change! Change in the world that starts within myself .. So i have commit to make the most of my 24 hours with what will make me grow ..all things to do with health, my career, family and relationship (Mystery Man and friendship) ..

2. Career : for those of you who knows me well, you would know i am a tad .. a pinch .. a dash of a workaholic .. but lately it hasn't been so .. but from what i have breathe in and out are ideas that slowly crawl into the creativity production - and i love it! Then i think to myself......why o why should i stop doing whatever it is that i do?
With support and blessing from my family and friends, i have had the idea of opening up an Interior Agency within the streets of Jakarta ..just a small free lance start up and that i hope will be my baby that grows into a furnishing showroom =)
So i dared myself to talk to my Boss of Bellagio Furnishing and he wasn't happy about it at first as he thought it'll be something of a competition ...but as soon as i convinced him that it won't be and i'll still be part-timing in Bellagio Furnishing, he supported me by offering an affiliation with Bellagio Furnishing =D
.........and for now, yes i have started with an East Rembrant small house project..owned by a man with one great personality! - i feel so blessed ... and i am about 80% done with his house ... so keep coming back to see what i've done with the empty house!

3. Business : as a side job ... i dream of opening a business ...maybe something to do with fashion, which has always been a hidden passion of mine =) .....but all this later in the beginning of twenty-eleven! *excited*

Conclusion is sometimes we feel empty and sometimes we just start to feel tired don't feel guilty coz it's beautiful what a little-breather can do to you! To those who are feeling a lil lost, stay strong coz our Creator will never allow anything beyond our strength to happen ..

Much Love and stay posted!
