oh that is rather quaint is it not?

oh my entire previous post that i had drafted went missing. Anyway, i think everyone who loves all things pretty,vintage and just downright quaint should take a trip or perhaps a leisurely stroll to Maling St, if it isn't too far from your abode...[ see what going to pretty places that reminds me of Jane Austen novels does to me. Anyway,i was running low on cash but i walked into this shop and i saw the cutest wrapping paper and i proceeded to empty my coin purse out. My mother looked at me as if i was stupid for spending $7 on a sheet of paper. Perhaps i'm just a slave to pretty things. It is undeniably cute. If i had more money i'd be spending it on every single piece they had up there... SO pretty!!!

the whirlwind



i'm back from a wonderful weekend getaway with the most wonderful bunch of people ever. i've been so busy with everything  else that i've sort of drifted away from so many people that i forget how much i miss my friends and why i became friends with them in the first place. ALSO, i'm starting to realise that i'm doing alot of things to make other people happy but it just absolutely kills me [perhaps this explains the over exhaustion where sleep doesn't come easy and when i do i'm dead to the world ]. for now, despite everything good that has happened it feels like my world is crumbling a bit, but worry not, the good bits are kinda duct taping my whole world together for now. sometimes i really just wish God didn't give us free choice and he didn't give us the emotions to care wether or not we had free choice. it would make things so much easier, sometimes i think that people aren't thinking when they say that God gave us free choice because he loved us. If God just made it so that we did everything right we wouldn't have been kicked out of heaven. even if we were, we'd always do the right thing, thus making it impossible for anyone to go to hell.. this whole faith thing. WHY does it have to be so confusing? i have so many unanswered questions, i don't want textbook answers, they don't make sense. {rant off}


this old man was at the top of the wat in siem reap
he was just waiting and waiting for the sunset but his spot got stolen when he got up hence he missed seeing the sun vanish after which it was so very dark
sometimes it feels like  i'm waiting for something spectacular to happen but in doing what someone else wants me to, i'll miss the best bits of my life.
