In The Kitchen

I can see myself sipping a glass of Cab Sav while preparing dinner, here in this kitchen. And by preparing dinner I mean...taking them out of the take away box :p.

For the Home


How a man should be

Could not say it any better :)

Inspiration Sunday : I can see!

Thank you for letting me see things beyond my understanding. Thank you thinking of me as a to die for. For chastising me. For having faith in me when I almost cannot believe in myself. For teaching me how to have faith in other people...for standing beside me when the road is dark and narrow. 
Thank You, for enabling me to see the tiniest light at the end of the tunnel, even when the world is at a hesitation.

May my vision, hearing and action will always be guided by You.

ps: Happy Sunday beautiful people!

Loving Friday: Revenge of The Lawn

I never read anything that is so hypnagogic, poignant and dreamy than this short story below. It is so hypnotizing it almost feel like it came out of a mad man's mind who is falling deep in a sickening love. And I mean it in a good way.
Now if you can tell me where to get this short story collection: Revenge of The Lawn ... I will adore you. I will so adore you.

The Glass Castle

I adore this beautiful book by Jeanette Walls. Have you read it? It took me 2 days only to eat, gorge, devour all the 288 pages (super small pt!). Her memoir is beautifully written with a bittersweet narration that’s just going to blow you away if it is not going to bury you. 

Her unconventional childhood brings back a poignant part of mine. And I am thankful for the coincidental fact that I read this book, for it make me realize how I have been blessed. And will always be. 

The dysfunctional system does not seem strange to me, the ‘making believe’ adventures can easily be related with mine too, the - what appears to be - a forced independency and all the ‘skeedadle’ feels familiar to my bones.

Jeannette inspires me to be brave. To not be ashamed of your past, no matter how strange, impossible, and rotten they may seem. 

And my favorite part of the book is actually the very first page that she dedicated to her husband : “ Thank you John for convincing me that anyone who is interesting has a past”


I think that’s just beautiful.

ps: Thank you Cindy :)

Awesome Monday: Awesome People Hanging Out Together; Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen

Just sharing one picture of two of my favorite musicians. I have been listening to Bob Dylan's "To Make You Feel My Love" over and over again during the weekend so this picture is to end the overplayed song in my iTunes and to kick off a good week ahead.
Oh, as I type, Springsteen's "Streets of Philadelphia"is playing.

Some say I can be too much of an old soul... Hmmm. I wonder why that is?

Inspiration Sunday: Emergency Numbers

Oh how things we have planned can go the other way round, can take super slow lane when you feel that you are out of time. How you think you can handle everything but apparently, you cannot? (No surprise there heh?).

Never I want to push God under anyone's throat...But you know what, even when people might see me as a one strong faithful lady, I have my moments of fear to...I event lament sometimes in my prayer.

But, I am blessed enough to be bestowed by His grace so I always know who to call, where to turn my head to :)

Question (and answer) yourself

What would you do if life is giving you the liberty to test, to dare, to challenge yourself ?
Before going there, you may want to entice yourself by playing as one of Cowen's students and try to create our own test firts.

ps: Isn't funny how we can be either intrigued or turned off when we have the power to test and to measure our self?

A most unusual test AUG 21 2012

Tyler [Cowen] once walked into class the day of the final exam and he said. "Here is the exam. Write your own questions. Write your own answers. Harder questions and better answers get more points." Then he walked out.
Love it.
