europe, here i come!

I'm flying to France/Italy for 10 days tomorrow and boy, am I ever so so excited. I'm going to take a milllion pictures (not literally, but close enough) and enjoy every moment of it!

It's raining so hard outside I feel like my roof is going to collapse. Meanwhile, my piano exam is tomorrow so I'll need all the luck I can get !

What does it mean to have someone repeated appear in your dreams? Someone who's from your life in the past. That someone you used to have feelings towards but are now barely even friends. I wake up every time from a dream like that wanting to hug that person and to tell them how much they meant to me. To tell them how big of a difference they made in my life. And how from time to time, I really miss them.

If only there was a giant book that deciphers all dreams and every dream, telling you exactly what it means. Sadly enough, I don't think that giant book will ever exist.

a message from around the world.

(This was a little stuffed animal a good friend gave to me as a Christmas present a couple years back. It's actually from Japan. I was taking pictures around the house and this turned out to be really cute! )

When I signed in to Msn this morning, a notification regarding an offline message popped up. I had no expectations of who it might be from and I clicked on it. Lo and behold, my best friend who's currently in China messaged me. I've always wondered how a simple "I miss you soo much" can light up my day. And I have yet to figure out the answer to that. The story really isn't long. This is our last summer before graduation year of high school and we've all been busy with our own lives. Taking summer school courses, practicing for piano exams and going on vacation afterwards. For an entire two months, we've barely carried out 3 full conversations. I miss you. It was great to hear from you (:

It doesn't matter how far apart two people may be

It doesn't matter how often they converse

What matters is

simply what one means to the other deep inside.

We don't need 10 best friends,

just one is enough.

And lucky me,

I have two.

Listen to the sound of the music.

Say hi!!

It really isn't that orange in real life, I just love to make my colours vivid.

And just some random shots around the house. It's quite incredible how everything looks much better in pictures than in real life. It'd be awesome if we could add function to our eyes. My piano exam is coming up in a couple days and nowhere am I near ready. I guess I should be putting even inch of effort into practicing nowadays but here I am, fooling around with my camera and browsing aimlessly on the internet. Keep in mind, I excel at procrastination like you won't believe. I think this picture is beautiful.

the start of a new beginning.

I've been blogging on Xanga for a couple years now and I was originally attracted to it because of it's private feature. But since this year began, I've blogged less and less. It was mainly caused by my hectic and workfilled school life but since there was less interesting blogs to read, I lost my interest quite quickly. Then I started to discover all of the amazing bloggers who use Blogspot and it was like I was introduced to an entire new world. The photos, the words, the fashion and the content here made me want to start a blogspot myself to. Perhaps it really was time to say bye to my long beloved Xanga account and start somewhere new. Plus, a new school year is starting in less than a month so it should be a good idea. However, I do think I need to get used to this public posting idea.

I'm learning how to use my dad's new Nikon D90 SLR camera and maybe soon, I'll be posting jawdropping photos! (I'm just kidding!) It still takes amazing photos even if I just press the button.
