bikram...I almost love you...
Yes, my new found activity. It is one of those things in your to-do list that never gets done. The last time I was in Yoga was when I was expecting Hailey. But this time it is different. Very different, with the 40 degree heat and the less bendible body, I thought I was dying towards the end of the 90 mins class. Dead mans position is the rest position. My favorite so far. Every fibre of my being was being stretched. I had positions I didn't know I have/could! Out of the 26 positions, maybe a good smacking 20 for now...I was wet with perspiration, practically drenching the towel beneath me. So was everyone. The heat was not as bad as I thought and it is always good to sweat it all out. Still, by the 24th position, I was dizzy, queasy...then a relief when the instructor commanded the last position. It was overall a much needed sweat it all out session. Felt good. Not the afterwards though, my muscles are now aching 24 hrs later...after shock I guess. But you'll see...I'll be back.

how can I resist ??
Need I say more....from leather to plastic type....from Iphone to Ipad skin cover...Reminds me of a much needed thankful tribute to Mr Steve Jobs for introducing such a fabulous design & technology to the world. RIP.

mooi away
Its been a stagnant 6 months for soe mooi. I have been busy engaging the corporate world alongside with Mr.limin. Daiso has been my release of stress when things or people in the office are not in their most 'mooi' state. My home workstudio room has been close for awhile. I miss the room. I miss the colors. I miss the smell. I wish to be back - soon again to the mooi matters close to my heart. For now, I will stick to the closest person to my heart.

beautiful something
How wonderful to know someone out there bothers to make our boring camera straps 'mooi' - beautiful! I got myself one - for now! Look forward to their camera bags!
happy 8th wedding anniversay!
Happy 8th wedding anniversary to us, Mr & Mrs Limin. This time we went to Hong Kong for a 2 nights to catch up on each other, its been busy the past months and we need the one to one time for us. It was a mix of shopping and talking (matters of the deep heart) It was funny actually. Whenever we were tired from the shopping, we found a spot in some cafe or eatery for a break and a talk session. Very result oriented talk sessions. Very productive trip indeed, I am always happy to spend time with Mr Limin. From Ben & jerry's to good old Hong kong eateries, we dished problems out that were burried in the last weeks. Salut to my soulmate. I love you more now. =)
