Did you notice the blog has been a little silent these days? No, I am not abandoning it; quite the opposite, actually. I am building a solid foundation for it. I don’t want it only to be something I created out of 9-5 job frustration. Again, maybe you won’t notice it immediately, but I am hoping one day, it will speak for itself.
I put my paper down at work, finally, after contemplating it for months! It was a significant move, partly because I knew I would be moving back to Jakarta, and I was uncertain about where I wanted to work next.
I visited one of the places I had planned to see this year – Angkor Wat. It was as magical as I had imagined. I could sense the presence of another part of the world. In addition, I tried “happy” pizza to get high for the first time in my life. Unfortunately, nothing happened. What I could have done without was the intense heat. It was scorching, and I returned home two shades darker.
Also, I got a short haircut. Like short shorts. The last time I did it was seven years ago, and it feels GREAT to have (and maintain) short hair! It had nothing to do with the phantom heat from Angkor Wat; it was one of the items on my to-do list before turning 30 – to cut my hair short, à la Anne Hathaway. So, I did cut my hair. And no, I didn’t look like Anne Hathaway; maybe if I wore Lancome.
This month: I wrote about Autumn in Amsterdam. It was GORGEOUS. I was interviewed by Z of Straight Up Z last month. Also, unfortunately, I didn’t get high after eating the Happy Pizza in Cambodia.
I am willing to exchange ALL of my current watches for this fuelband-inspired i-Watch 🌸 Photographs tell stories, we all know that, but pictures of photographs, well, it’s another level altogether 🌸 Ashley wrote about choosing a minimalist lifestyle: “…I don’t want to spend my life jumping from distraction to distraction. I don’t want to wake up and wonder what happened to my life…” 🌸 Tammy goes small and thinks big and happy while living in a teeny tiny house. That gives me a shift of perspective 🌸 Six easy steps to build a chic minimalist wardrobe. The second step is my favourite 🌸 And I discussed minimalism with Xandra over here on the blog 🌸 10 core principles to clear the clutter 🌸
