the winter

2012-01-26T00:12:00.003-05:00

This winter has been pretty warm so far, I only wish we will have some real snow when I am off, oh how selfish that sounds?

Well, here are some pictures from the winter mix we got last weekend.

So, stay warm!

The hidden beauty

2011-08-20T22:58:00.004-04:00

The Society of the Cincinnati is such a beautiful place, you probably wouldnt notice this place at first but I assure you that you will fall in love with this place once you see it.

Oh plants

2011-08-18T23:19:00.001-04:00

US Botanic gardenis a wonderful place to visit. I love their all kinds of exhibitions. And it's such a great and quiet place to just relax and hang out with your kids.

Location:US botanic garden

magic mirror

2010-08-03T23:20:00.005-04:00

I walked in this tiny store in a corner of Old town, Alexandria on a sunny afternoon with a friend. This mirror attracted me immediately. How beautiful it is! So, I pushed shutter with no second thoughts.

Lotus flower

something I love about summer

2010-07-26T21:08:00.006-04:00

One thing i love in summer is farmers market, you always can find fresh goodies there, fresh fruit, fresh veggie, fresh flowers, fresh bread...last week, I went to this farmers market which is 2 metro stops from my office, they have the most delicious peach pie, its so yummy and I am thinking to get some this week, again!

Here are some pictures from that farmers market.

all images taken by me

Today I feel like to ......

2010-07-20T23:42:00.007-04:00

Have a cup of iced coffee and stay in just read some books, do some laundry. The reality is I had to get up early so I can drop my film at the lab then get to work by time I supposed to be there. And you know how bad when its humid and hot out and you have to walk 2 blocks to get into the building with AC. Oh, its summer, lets not complain too much. :)

When I saw this dress on Etsy I was like, oh, that's a lovely summer dress.

I went to Macy's on Sunday and the store was packed, people were shopping like crazy, who is saying the economy is not getting better? I am going to start my holiday shopping very soon but I still have no idea what to get for my friends and family, how about you? I read this really nice holiday gift guide from a cup of jo the other day, hopefully this will help you a little.

Weekend or no?

2009-10-04T18:37:00.005-04:00

I feel like I have been working forever, no weekend, no free time,no time for grocery shopping, office is my primary home now. Still, I love this beautiful season.Everyday when I walk out of my apartment, I can tell the color is changing on the leaves and that makes my overtime working feel much better!

A very exciting news I heard from Madebygirl that Michelle Adam just published her very lovely first online magazine-Lonnymag, make sure you will check this out, when I opened the page I feel like wow, I just love it! The mag is so well designed with very nice pictures and full of great ideas.

One of my favorite quotes about photography "Photography is painting with light! The blurs, the spots, those are errors! But the errors are part of it, they give it poetry and turn it into painting. And for that you need as bad a camera as possible! If you want to be famous, you have to do whatever you’re doing worse than anyone else in the whole world."-Miroslav Tichý

a haircut

2009-09-01T22:09:00.007-04:00

As some of you already knew that i got a haircut on last Sat and yes its kinda bad but I kinda love it well at least it saves me like 20 minutes in the morning so totally worth it and as always, right after i got this haircut i start to think about how beautiful long hair is...

2009-08-31T14:44:00.005-04:00

From the night i saw the preview of this movie in the theater, I HAVE BEEN wanted to watch this movie and this movie has been out for like what 2 weeks? I still haven't found time to watch it yet, its just makes me feel bad now. I can spend whole day in front of my MAC or sit on the couch watch Friends(how many times I have watched that show? 100!!!!) but I cant find 2 hours just watch this movie, what is the deal with me? OK i will watch it this week yes i WILL. The thing I Love about this movie is its not a simple chick flick, its about how a woman find her passion in life. Its inspiring and hopeful I guess since i haven't watched movie yet. We all need a little bit hope and passion in our life, don't we?

On the road

2009-08-17T22:08:00.003-04:00

I have been taking trips quite a lot ever since I can remember, and the one I just took over the weekend is the most memorable trip I have ever had.It was a trip with all kinds of chaos, laughs,pains and of course with beautiful beautiful beaches. Saturday night we were strolling on the Atlantic Ave of VB,a typical humid summer night, with bunch of tourists like us, and for a minute I feel like, ok where am I?A strange city I might never gonna come to visit again.Well, who really cares, at least I was enjoying at that moment.

Its August

2009-08-06T22:45:00.004-04:00

Its August!!!I have been feeling that summer is almost gone lately and what have I done this summer so far?A couple short trips to some beaches and we gonna have a BBQ party by pool how excited that will be!

2009-07-27T15:40:00.003-04:00

The thing I love to have Monday off is everybody is at work but me. yeah, so I have the whole house just by myself and I can read, watch a movie,decorate my small bedroom, or take some pictures.We went to Annapolis on last weekend, it's nice to walk by the beach watch kids playing with the water on a summer Saturday and a crab meal totally highlighted my Saturday little trip, I strongly recommand this place called Harris Crab House its about 15 minutes drive from Annapolis you have to try their fresh crab.

Its July!I cant believe time fly so fast :) I dont work today so I was thinking oh life without internet at home was pretty boring untill I saw this post via Apt.#34. Yeah, the outfit is so adroable and one day I am sure will try. So how is your 4th of July? I bought a lot of fresh veggie and seafood on that day and we made a supper delicious dinner then we went to watch Transformers oh I just love Greenday's new song 21 guns it was a super nice July 4th for me.

So with my unpacking moving boxes project going, I am thinking how to decorate our new home, its very hard cuz we got new ideas like every minute, hmm its getting frustrated but I just adore this living room! It feels so right for the summer.

beautiful summer

2009-06-25T16:45:00.007-04:00

A couple days ago, I saw this pic from Garance Doré's website, the picture is so beautiful. I swear I stared at the picture for like 3 minutes, yeah, while I was at work. and i have to share this with all my dear friends.

Summer is right at the corner, I can smell it, feel it and touch it. Summer is an ice cream season for me, a pool season for me, a season that I can be a slacker(doesn't mean I don't have to work). So Please tell me what does summer mean to you? Does that mean an off day wonder around in the city? A day spend at the beach with friends? And since its summer time, I have to say , its a season that favors girls the most, we can wear dresses, t-shirts, shorts, skirts..etc. and for this summer, i have decided that i will wear skirts/dresses most of the time, why not, they are just so beautiful :) and wearing them makes me feel like, yes this is a lovely summer.

lovely friday

2009-06-12T11:58:00.004-04:00

This weekend I will fly back to old home and clean everything out...sounds like a fun weekend right? So what is your weekend plan? After this week, i THINK i am ready to start my new life in D.C and I will explore the city more I promise :)
Today's 3191 miles apart blog is so inspiring!esp Mav's button down story is so cute and warm, makes me want to find some button-down shirts from my messy closet, well I am sure most of them are not fit anymore since I have been gaining weight incredibly fast :(
Speak of button, I found this really nice website via Rachel's Flickr this morning, its called Buttons Magee, i FALL in love with this website right after I CLICK it, Rachel is a great photographer and the way she uses color just so amazing!

Ok, i NEED to get ready and go to my last day of work of this week, oh yeah!

new life in a new city

2009-06-08T11:59:00.003-04:00

I haven't touched this blog for a really long time and yes i know i almost forgot about this blog but I am B A C K!

I have been so busy with moving, packing, shipping, cleaning stuff and as you can tell, move to a new city start a new life is not that easy, we have to clean up the old things, old job, old apartments, and some of them we will trash some of them we will bring with us, i guess this is the beauty of life, you move on and start a new journey. So how is my new city experience? its pretty good so far, I completely stop driving and most of the time I took metro to go to work, get grocery, of course there are some down sides about moving to a new place, like no friends to hang out for a while( for me it took a little bit longer to have some friends that I want to hang out with), like some people in the big city are not as friendly as people in mid-west, like it took me 2 hours to find some place I really want to go(since we dont know the city that much and totally depend on GPS on my phone) but everything will be fine and I was totally cheered up by this blog about Tracey Leigh's home tour, its such an inspiring home, feels so warm and homey.
photo by Jennifer Ramos

So i was thinking no matter how hard out there, how much I am still not comfortable with this new life thing, at least, I have a home here, and what they say about home? Home is where the heart is.

2009-04-17T17:18:00.006-04:00

I finished my first travel pouch yesterday , it was so fun to do something with my own hands, sewing, printing. I really love the progress, test printing, mix paint color, wait for the result, each trial turns out differently and yes they are imperfect but I know when I was making those pouches, my heart was in them.

2009-04-12T21:26:00.005-04:00

I did have a nice weekend. We went to hiking on Saturday, It has been so long since I went to the park last time, maybe about 2 years?It's so nice to walk on the trial and watch dogs playing. Then I got so tired, so i took a nap after I got home:) Also watched knowing on Friday night but I don't really like it for me the story is kind stupid. I am very excited to tell you that my first dye project-apron dye was very successful, I will post a picture tomorrow. Maybe I will try to dye scarf next.
