“Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”

― Rainer Maria Rilke

Woke up early on the morning of my 26th birthday and felt particularly productive as I managed to finish a number of things on my agenda. Just as I was almost done, I received this slightly less-unromantic bouquet from my boyfriend <3 

Made me smile :3 

Can't believe I'm 26, goodness. 

Jiaqin rocked up at my house as the personal designated driver for the day, taking Tofs and me to a secret location. 

Turned out to be a cosy party at Yesenia place! I love the decoration <3 

As if the wonderful surprise wasn't enough, they also got me some amazing and thoughtful presents <3 

They even liaised with my mother and got me beautiful flowers on her behalf. 

These beautiful beautiful people <3 

Amazing spread, some cooked by Yesenia's sweet mami, and my favourite cheese & dip, with sushi (also my fav)!!! Even the table cloth and serviettes were in my favourite colour, my heart was bursting, they are so amazing.

Min finally meeting baby Luna! 

So blessed! 

I love that our children are such great friends hehe. 

I love this picture, it's hilarious bahahhaa. 

<3 So grateful. 

Dinner with Fiona and WZ who were in town! Made the mistake of inadvertently ordering three seafood dishes but they were good! 

They also got me cake for bday :3 It was a pretty perfect day! 

Take For Example This:

if to the colour of midnight

to a more than darkness(which
is myself and Paris and all
things)the bright
rain
occurs deeply,beautifully

and i(being at a window
in this midnight)
                      for no reason feel
deeply completely conscious of the rain or rather
Somebody who uses roofs and streets skilfully to make a
possible and beautiful sound:

if a(perhaps)clock strikes,in the alive
coolness,very faintly and
finally through altogether delicate gestures of rain

a colour comes,which is morning,O do not wonder that

(just at the edge of day)i surely
make a millionth poem which will not wholly
miss you;or if i certainly create,lady,
one of the thousand selves who are your smile.

- e. e. Cummings

16th - 18th May 2018: Park x Pre-Birthday

Our favourite thing is when there are other doggies around to play! 

I'm bringing back the stick mum! 

Tried my hand at making fried chicken. The picture looks kind of terrible but it didn't taste bad actually!  

"I SAID GOODNIGHT MUM". 

Surprise delivery on the morning of the 18th :3 

Bunch of sweets from my sweetie Kanika :3 

 So loved :')

Lunch time at school. 

Pre-birthday dinner with my housemates :3 

Bungaree boiz & mi. 

Hehe. 

Still Another Day

“We the mortals touch the metals,
the wind, the ocean shores, the stones,
knowing they will go on, inert or burning,
and I was discovering, naming all the these things:
it was my destiny to love and say goodbye.”

― Pablo Neruda

14th - 15th May 2018: Driving Stuff

Early "surpise" from Sam! I had accidentally left my iPhone cable on the floor in Tofu's play area when I left the house one day so he demolished it haha. 

Came home after passing my driving test to cuddle my pupper! 

This qt came down to take us to her place so that we could chill and celebrate. 

Made a short detour to pick some stuff up first! 

Someone got sleepy. 

Reunited with his bro. 

Brought the kids to Curtin because Annie had a netball game! 

Best supporters! 

Huimin and her new car! 

The car that I owned and loved for all of 5 hours before I realised that it was tampered with and I returned it... It was beautiful while it lasted though...

Tofu seemed to like it :')

Dropped by Caleb's house for lunch! It was a good thing that I did because it delayed me from spending more money on the car (cleaning, rego, transfer) before finding out that it was a fraudulent sale. 

The car also cut me as I got out of it for the last time ):
