march madness.

goodness gracious, how fast this month has flown by. its one of my favorite months of the year for obvious reasons, but aside from it being my birthday month, i also love it for the start of spring, when winter whispers goodbye and the cherry blossoms bloom.
t’is the season to fall in love.

thoughts on 21

godiva chocolate cheesecake (the cheesecake factory) & riesling at buca di beppo
turning 21 has undoubtedly (fo sho) been the best time of my life. this year was everything, and much more, than i thought it to be. a year filled with blessings, lessons, and experiences – both good and bad. a year filled with surprises, more [...]

wishlist

3 days to 22. the family surprised me with one item off the list after tonight – the deliciously pink ipod nano, which was suitably engraved to boot. and, i love making lists, but polyvore takes it to a whole new level. i don’t exactly need/terribly want everything, but it’s fun putting it all together.
1. pale [...]

mile high.

saints peter and paul church in washington square, as seen from coit tower.
sometimes i wonder about my penchant for going up high buildings in each city i visit. the rockefeller, empire state, cn tower, space needle, rialto…after awhile it seems like a touristy thing to do and becomes rather habitual. but more often than not, it’s [...]

long weekends…

tulips in golden gate park. spring break 07.
are for kicking it. need some downtime. and, to enjoy my last few days of being 21. those were the days.

plod.

last summer, a lake at mount rainier.
tiring (and a tad depressing) monday, therefore, looking at (and wearing) vibrant pops of color to perk me up, although sleeping early would solve it all.
on another note, i hate it when my skin gets dry.

recuperating

from a mild bout of the flu. it’s been a trying 2 weeks. proof that i can have high highs, but at the same time hit abysmally low lows. managed to work through most of the week despite feeling under the horribly rainy weather, but finally succumbed on thursday and on doctor’s orders, got today [...]

girl on the ave.

21, almost 22
but still a girl
finding her way
stumbling and tripping
picking herself up
sometimes losing herself
dissolving
in this madcrazy world
but always keeping the faith
concocting daydreams
and wishing on stars
with her head in the clouds
and feet on the ground
a girl inspired
a girl in love
with you and the world
she once was
and always will be,
a girl you once knew and loved,
a girl [...]

first of all.

overwhelmed by the desire to pen down my thoughts again. although this time around, it will be more musings and inspirations and photos than personal life.
