i missed posting for Sky Watch last week because of my mini hiatus. no dramatic sunset to post for this week. but then i really like this two-toned sunset the other day. the upper part is so blue and the lower one is a little golden. amazing skies are sure up this week! have a happy weekend everyone! i'd definitely have a busy and (crossing fingers) happy weekend!

i stopped by a certain area at the botanical gardens on my way to the picnic. :) i find it really cute, reminds me of rambutan from afar but when you take a closer look, it's a bunch of mini-flowers. i forgot to look for it's name. :D

i caught this big insect while we were doing water play. all the kids and parents are distracted by it as it is fluttering near our area. about the size of my palms. am not sure if this is a butterfly or moth, as i'm always confused between the two. :D

back from my mini hiatus from bloggging. :D

i still haven't written anything about angels and demons. all that i can tell is that, i liked the movie, because i like tom hanks and ewan mcgregor. i also have this weird habit of watching a movie adaptation first before reading the novel (i did that with da vinci code), and because of that i couldn't pinpoint what's missing from the novel. it's impressive for me because they were able to replicate the whole vatican city since they can't film there. i'm also impressed with the special effects they had, though less "gory" than the previous film. :D next in line, terminator:salvation. one week to go! :D

Sky Watch Friday again! found in my " treasure chest" of sunset shots. :D stunning and amazing sky photos around the world are up again! Have a great weekend everyone!

Spoiler: i couldn't help it, but i went to see "Angels and Demons" tonight. i can't wait for the weekend! hahaha! it's becoming a habit again for me to see movies on the first day of it's showing. i'll post about the movie later tonight. as for now, i need to go to sleep as it will be a very busy day at work. to my friend Reena , i love it!!!!!!

we've been eyeing to try and eat the mille crepe cakes from the cake shop next to our school but haven't gotten the chance since it's a little expensive compared to our heavenly indulgence of ice cream. and just today, me and my food buddies, decided to just sit down and try the cakes. oh! so heavenly! i can't do justice with the photos but it is definitely heaven when we tried the cakes. i had the chocolate mille crepe and my buddies had the plain mille crepe. i finished off the whole slice and about a quarter of the slice of my food buddy (hahaha! super takaw!).

one bad side effect though, after eating the cake, i guess we had a little too much of it that we had headaches. so i had to check what are the basic ingredients for this heavenly cake. probably it's a little too much of eggs, butter and sugar. here's the article that i found in the internet.

original mille crepe and chocolate mille crepe.

i have realised i can't be a food blogger...a food blogger needs to be patient and be prepared to have the food eaten a little later than the usual. it took an incredible amount of effort for me to take pictures of the cakes before actually attacking them! hahaha!

thank you!!! words are not enough to express how fortunate and grateful i am for being your daughter! :)

to my blogger mum friends happy mother's day!!!! you all deserve a big hug and kiss! for you have the toughest job in the world! to my single friends, please tell your mom thank you and happy mothers day. i am thankful to them for without them, i wouldn't have met all of you!!!! and to the future moms, happy mothers day too!

our pre-mother's day activity for the tots. we provided them the flowers, oasis and the tag. they picked and poked the flowers in the oasis.

if you're lost you can look

and you will find me...

post for my bestfriend ryoga...happy birthday!!!!

Sky Watch time! stunning, awesome and breathtaking sky photos from around the world will be up! Have a lovely weekend everyone!

still undecided whether to watch star trek because i am not a "trekker". has anyone seen the movie yet? it has received good reviews. might go and watch it over the weekend, i've seen the trailer...looks really really good. :D

we're having flowers for this week, that's why i took the flowers that we have used today and made them my 'models'! if i'm not mistaken they are malaysian mums. really, i am so poor remembering floras. :D

(not really in an 'emo' mode. it's just that avril's song kept on playing in my head. :D)

i have thought of posting something for Sardonyx regarding the award/tag that she gave me. i've been thinking of doing this but i kept on forgetting (sorry, i'm really growing old :P). i had to find an apt quote that befits how i feel whenever i read her blog. reading her blog really never fails to bring a smile (and laughter) onto my face. thanks Sardonyx!

Sky Watch day again. i am just so glad to see amazing and stunning sky photos around the world. the sun seems to be hiding behind the straight line of clouds, as if he's very shy to show himself to me. :D and i am so glad it's a public holiday today (1st May)! have a happy weekend everyone!
