Random Bits

Quin Browne wrote a lovely guest post over at Guest of a Guest, about her experience moving to New York. (Read it here) I can’t wait till I’ve moved and can write about everything I’m thinking, seeing, doing, eating, loving, and hating (I’m already dreading the subway – the MTR’s spoiled me! ) [...]

Under the Sea

Annie Leibovitz has done it again – the latest Disney Dreams Portrait Series (as part of their “Year of a Million Dreams” celebrations) is Julianne Moore as Ariel, and swimmer Michael Phelps (along with other famed swimmers) as merpeople. I love it!! Julianne Moore looks awesome (click on the image to get to the full [...]

Best. Weekend. Ever!

I had the best weekend.
Friday night after work I went to meet my parents at my fave Thai restaurant, and we ate there (mmmm!), then I met Candy Butt for a giant glass of Hoegaarden – (my fave!) – before we moved on to Wan Chai to check out Pawn, this new bar/restaurant that my [...]

Quin, a fellow blogger, [...]

Why I love irises

Iris
Primary Significance: With history dating back to Greek mythology, irises come in a rainbow of colors, the most popular being the deep blue variety. Their primary meanings include faith, hope, wisdom, courage, and admiration. (Meaning from Proflowers.com)
Randomly, these were taken in [...]

Dreams

I had the strangest dream last night, and it was so realistic. This is what went down:
I was in a bathroom stall, locked, doing my business at some mall or something, and this girl walks in (it’s a pretty big stall) mid-pee, and kisses her boyfriend inside my stall! (The lock must have just come [...]
