do what we do best

There is nothing like hanging out with my cousin and...not deciding what we want to do, laughing too hysterically, her always getting a little annoyed at me for being ..me, eating, taking never-too-many pictures, and well..you know, all that good stuff. No biggie, those are just what we do best.

let me walk underneath the sun

After getting the mail today, goofed around with my little sister around the neighborhood and at the park. With the sun shining so brightly, it feels like nothing can go wrong.

a tourist attraction

(@ Niagara Falls with the fam; my mom and I (the apple never seems to fall too far from the tree); some things I whipped up to celebrate my aunts visiting (the lemon coconut cookies I baked were too delish!); I also baked a raspberry white chocolate cheese cake for the special occasion)

With relatives visiting this weekend, I've realized that sometimes whenever we bring visitors around, we remember again why we love where we are. Or maybe it's just the company that makes everything so pleasurable. The part I hate though is when it's time for everyone to leave and for everyone else to go back into their regular old routine.

On a side note, we have a plant at home (which is always looking like it's about to die) that rarely ever blossoms (every 7-9 years or so, there'll be flowers), but anyways, over these past two weeks, this sneaky little plant decided to grace our home with some beautiful flowers. We try to take pictures of it once in a while 'cause I guess it's a pretty special thing...hehe

flowers in my heart

(shirt and clutch designed and sewn by me, Rudsak skirt)

Sometimes, I feel like I can open my heart to love everything and everyone but sometimes, I become so angry and frustrated that I can barely bring myself to reason with anything. I'm working on that though and two days ago, I learned from my doctor that iron deficiency actually makes us irritated easily and also causes mood swings. Perhaps we can take the blame off of my character and put it on a poor diet? Anyways, like everybody else, I can only try to be better everyday.

Also, that little project I mentioned in my previous post, I`m still super stoked about it, meaning I haven`t abandoned it like many other previous projects I`ve started. Super excited!

XO,

the drive down

Today, I went out with my cousin and throughout the day, we talked about a lot of stuff but something that I can`t seem to shake off is the word: "indifferent". Maybe it's because that word came up a few times today..or maybe it only came up once..but anyways, I've realized that throughout these past few weeks and perhaps months, I've started feeling indifferent towards a lot of things. It's just a change I've noticed about myself. Am I slowly starting to lose my opinion?Perhaps, I'm just letting too many things pass by me without paying any attention. Tomorrow morning, I'll wake up with a bit more zest.

Also, I'm thinking about starting a little project before I have to leave for school..hopefully, I'll be posting about that soon because that would mean I've decided to stick to it!

XO
