and i'll mirror images back to you

exploring. in courage my love.

ps. loving these covers (this one and this one). shes so good.

what comes after this, momentary bliss

pretty freedom in kensington.
on saturday, after brunch.
i like this place. one of the good ones.

happy wednesday.

ps. oh guess what?
my sister is visiting from the uk. and she arrives in two days. yipee!

hold unto this lullaby, even when the music's gone

ah yes. the weekend.
my weekend was packed, but in a good way.
well the zimele gala finally happened. and it was spectacular.
i got to watch this. satisfyingly.
(i love the books, you see. and i actually wasn't disappointed).
and i had a full out girls day. which i so most definitely needed.

started with what you see up there.
a lil' brunch date with elee in kensington market.
if you like grilled cheesies, then the above is mandatory.
they have all sorts of interesting and tempting options.
mmm cheese. i love it.

ps. keep calm and carry on.
pps. smart love.

and in between, its never as it seems

ahhhh to my lack of posts.
and the lack of photos.
and just.. the lack of, period.

this month has been kind of.. lacking in inspiration.

but. good news.
its officially spring.
i kinda feel like this sudden surge of lovely weather
has caused for some good vibes.

its nice.
to wake up, walk to the subway for work, and smell spring.
and when i leave work, that spring scent has grown
into that almost-summer scent, if only for a moment.

with that, brings a lot of warm memories
and hopeful excitement for the next few months.
because i really am looking forward to this next season.
and the one after that.
minus the poisonous effect of humidity, that is.

if you build yourself a myth, know just what to give

drifting in and out, see the road you’re on
you came rolling down the cheek
say just what you need
and in between it’s never as it seems

help me to make it
help me to make it

if you build yourself a myth
know just what to give
what comes after this
momentary bliss
consequence of what you do to me

help me to make it
help me to make it

found yourself in a new direction
aeons far from the sun
can you come when they come to breach you
let you know you’re not the only one

can’t keep hanging on
to all that’s dead and gone
if you build yourself a myth
know just what to give
do you lie?
oh let the ashes fly

help me to make it
help me to make it

i'm completely entranced in this song.
can't wait for them to release their new album.

so long, why you waitin' so long

guess what we did earlier this week? we went to go see them + them.
aaaand it was. so. fun. and they're both awesome. of course.

can't seem to get this song out of my head.
which seems to be fitting to this week.
because dude. my goodness me, i feel... the opposite of alive.
this week has completely drained me. drained.

i know, i know. thank goodness its friday.
but on the reals guys, thank GOODness.
its a bunch of my friends birthdays.
so i'm about to get my party hat on. rightfully so.

ps. that photo above is from khang's iphone.
pps. in addition to the above, i'm currently listening to this and, this.

pour a little salt, we were never here

ahhhh what is up.
so toronto's weather is straight up psycho right now.
i'm not joking - winter? what? were you even here?
this week we're hitting the celsius range of the twenties.
truth.

this is a double edge sword type of thing for myself.
i mean, i love nice weather.
however. this means goodbye to boarding.
you were hardly even in existence this season (minus this).
... oh well. camping? do you smell that?

anyway. so things have been mildly busy as of late.
some changes. and stuff.
and some things coming up. and stuff.

so what do i decide to do on my only free me-day of the week?
(disclaimer: i actually lead a pretty boring life, in all seriousness.)
... i obviously decide to watch bachelor and bake delicious goods. of course.
above. is some really yummy bread (mmm blueberries, mmm).
and my latest most favest of salads. tri-beanness. whaaat.

and all of that time you thought i was sad, i was trying to remember your name

so i've been really into granola.
i used to have oatmeal every morning.
but now i make a big batch of this stuff and leave it in the office.
ya know. add some greek yogurt and berries.
pretty yummy for the am.
and surprisingly, pretty filling.

happy tuesday.

the answer lies and its that light that shines

so i watched this, like twice this week.
i tried to stream it like 10 times before.
but my stupid sucky connection interrupted my attempts.
now i own the dvd.

something about this movie totally entranced me.
(besides the fact that i have this weird thing for period films).
i loved the cinematography. and the tones.
... now i'm reading the book.
(its usually the other way around).

anyway, how was your weekend?
mine was nice. i saw my lovely friend heewon wed her now-hubby, bill!
they're so cute. and it was fun. lots of fun.

ps. i love this.

it takes a thousand tries, you'll get it right in time

happy march.
happy thursday.
happy almost weekend.

ps. have you seen this stuff? its wicked.
pps. have you watched this tutorial? its lovely.
