that's pinteresting

i know this is probably nothing new, but i have a newfound obsession (for now) which has basically taken up all my free time for the past couple of weeks. which is not a reason for me neglecting this blog, coz it has been forgotten about for months. i havent even brought myself to write letters to arwen anymore because one, i havent been taking her photos as crazily as i normally would. and 2. it's hard to keep up with her so i kinda gave up and just let it be. see, that's now uninterested i am with life this blog.

but i digress. back to what i wanted to talk about ....



i think everybody else in the entire planet is already on pinterest but me. oh my god, where have i been? how can this awesome place be totally out of my radar? i know about other image bookmarking sites like tumblr, FFFOUND, the fancy ... but pinterest is totally my kind of place. and all beautiful stuff shared there by other people whose style and taste are just about similar to mine ... is not even the best part yet. the best part is that i get to categorize the images in their respective inspiration boards for easy reference, especially when i do my designs. this is the virtual equivalent to me physically pinning magazine cutouts and tearsheets into my inspiration book when i was in high school / uni days.

i am having so much fun with this that it has basically take up all my free time. i'm pinning when i'm in the office, when i'm taking the train to and from work, when i am lying next to my daughter while she watches her disney princess movies. all the time. sometimes till 1 in the morning.



so, this is what you'll see when you look at my boards.
1. i love typography. (well this is already a given)
2. i love the milky way.
3. i love black & white
4. i love stripes.
5. i love baby animals
6. i aspire to have an actual home office someday
7. but before that, a home that i can style according to my style
8. i am into Tiffany Blue for rooms
9. i am all about jeans
10. i like braids
11. i am thinking about coloring my hair deep red
12. like every other girl, i like heels but i cannot wear them for a long time.
13. i really wanna go to greece
14. i have a serious sweet tooth
15. i love Nutella on anything!

so if you wanna follow me and share what i like, i am at www.pinterest.com/lishajohanabas

Hair...deep raid...you wanna be like those Ah Soh squatting in front of their cincau stalls?

Have you tried Nutella on nasi goreng ikan masin? That's a recipe for a stinkbomb.

And Arwen has been progressing so much, and you didn't jot down ANYTHING?! WTF? Seriously, WTF? I only get to see her once a month. I wanna know what's happening in her life, dammit!
