September is looking good!


I can tell you now that for the next 5 weeks you probably won’t hear from me much. I may post a picture or two and blog about once or twice. I never imagined that September would be as busy as it’s looking! We are having an impromptu visit from my sister-in-law, my parents arrive on our wedding anniversary and stay for almost two weeks then we go home for a wedding *phew*! I just booked a spa day for us to celebrate our anniversary so I can have a few hours of bonding/relaxing time with my husband in between the craziness.

For once, I’m not stressed (surprise!). I’ve been occupying myself with getting rid of boxes in my apartment and I think when that is done then I may stress about everything but I can truly say I’m in a place right now where, I can’t wait to see those who are coming and to enjoy their company. Everything will work out. I’ve also been shopping up a storm.. I don’t know if that means I’m redirecting subconscious stress or if I’m just being naughty lol.

I feel like I’ve been neglecting my blog, but I’ve been so occupied with other things that finding the time to blog has been pretty hard. Late nights and early mornings haven’t been very nice but I don’t think I should ever be complaining about how much I have going on when at one point I didn’t have much going on. Life is great, I have no complaints whatsoever. I guess the following quotes somewhat describe where I am, and I will continue to work on being happy and living life to the fullest. πŸ™‚

Bits & QOtD


I am sick! 😦 I don’t remember the last time I was (thank goodness) and I’m blessed that it doesn’t happen often (yay Vit C!). However I had a few things I wanted to share that I had to post today.Β First off my friend has just started her own blog on Tumblr and I think you should check it out! You can see what we call a beach – nothing like Alki Beach up here! It’s called A bit here a bit there ← click!

The quote of the day that came in my email today was very inspiring. It said a lot of what I’ve been thinking recently. As you know, I can’t work legally with my current visa but I’ve been thinking seriously about where I want to go with my blogging. It’s the one thing I do that gives me a sense of purpose. And I’ve been thinking about what direction I want to take. When I’m going through things I get very pensive and deep in my writing. But when all seems fine and dandy I pull back and highlight my hobbies: fashion and travel. I’d like to keep this blog going just the way the name says it is – a dash of everything. But I also want to create a balance because some may appreciate my thoughts on life etc more than what I just bought for my face. I guess we’ll see how this goes, hope you enjoy the journey with me.
