Loving Disney Couture

I am so in love with Disney couture right now. I first saw this Mini Mouse cuff on a fashion blogger, it took me a while to recognize the shape. Immediately I went to Asos to see if it was available. Turns out that they not only make them with Swarovski crystals that's more affordable but also high end jewelry with precious stones.

Fresh Laundry

There's nothing like a fresh laundry metaphor. We all keep making up some everyday because its the simplest activity that that we wish we could replicate so easily in all our lives.

The physical action itself is straight forward, put dirty clothes in water, add soap, scrub gently, rinse and hang to dry.

All of a sudden I just appreciate this simple action and I can't think of a really good metaphor to use right now. As I made my way to the shower this morning, I saw my laundry hamper and it was full.

Never Enough

Earlier last week I was resolved to be positive. I had plans. Though I have started to put some in motion and several things are happening that have spiked my happiness radar a bit, I still feel drawn and like nothing's working out.

First off my job is getting to me. You know how they say 'do the work you love and you'll never work a day in your life'? Well I don't enjoy the job I do, so its real work. Just when I think I have gotten the hang of it, curve balls come. I give and give and give and they say its never enough. The company might be in jeopardy but what can I do? I have been promoted but no pay increase has been initiated. Its just demoralizing.

Midnight Musings I

I am happy, some sort of happy anyway. I can afford the Galaxy Note 8 yay! But it felt too easy just going out to get it. All of a sudden I am questioning myself, even though I have always wanted a reader and now I can get a reader and a tablet in one… do I really need it? Yes I do for sketches and blogging and reading and so much more but..

I just feel like maybe it should be a reward, not just a birthday present to myself. So I have given myself a challenge to make some things happen first. I have always had a list of stuff I want to accomplish and half the year is gone already. Its time to put in real effort into realizing my dreams.

First off, I have an assignment to write for a fashion magazine but I am stumped about what to write about. My forte has always been fiction and I pretty much struggle at non fiction. But I don’t want the opportunity to pass without at least trying.

How to take care of your External Hard Disk

The excitement that overcame me when I finally got my External Hard disk in my hands cannot be put into words. Yes, I could finally afford electronic upgrades by myself without asking help form anyone.

One whole Terra-Byte for moi! The plan was to back up all my 500GB worth of crap and delete everything from my Laptop so applications would work faster and better. But I cut the transition down to bits so the movement would be gradual.

But so far all I used my Ex HD for was to ferry the tons of series I download while at work and watch at home on my laptop. My Ex HD was my virtual La La Land of no end. It came with a hard case that I was proud of and even buffered with papers for extra padding.

Disaster struck.
