LDRs suck.

Life is sweet enough as it is. But life is even sweeter when you're around!



Exactly four weeks till Eddie's back. Goddamn it seems like an eternity.

Feeling spring-y and... itchy

Managed to pry myself away from the computer and force myself to go out for a healthy long walk along the river in the evening. The weather was so gorgeous it'd be a crime to stay home and gorge on junk-food like I usually do!

Had brought my phone along so here are some photos..



Spring is my favourite time of the year because that's when the jacarandas bloom and there are plenty of random pretty bursts of purple everywhere in Brisbane.



The newly upgraded bike/pedestrian way is pretty awesome as pedestrians no longer have to dodge scary cyclists... or is it the other way round? heh.

Fallen jacarandas scattered on the ground.



Soon the streets will be blanketed with purple, after a few more spring showers! ♥



It was a nice leisurely 4km stroll, except that...

I had given myself a haircut earlier on (trimmed my fringe a bit).



Now normally this wouldn't have been a problem had I dusted myself off properly, but because I obviously HADN'T, some bits of hair were still stuck on my chest and kept poking me under my bra as I walked.

I was squirming like a worm all the way and fervently hoping that nobody had seen me. It pretty much took all my will-power to stop myself from stuffing my hand down my shirt and relieving myself from the horrendous prickles with a good scratch! I was SO HAPPY when I finally got home...

Anyway, enough of itchy bossoms. I'll leave you with another photo taken with my phone camera, when Yvonne and I went to watch the boys play in the AUG tournament at Greenslopes on Sunday

:)



Long live blue skies, sunshine and cotton-candy clouds.

I'm sorry I'm sure you're all tired of me whinging about the cost of seeing the dentist already... but it IS so very expensive to have healthy teeth here in Australia! O.O

At least I'm having a nice lunch before my appointment :)



Bubble tea and sushi (fresh salmon/avocado + sweet chilli prawn/peach/cream cheese) from my favourite sushi spot next to Queens Plaza.

OKGTGKTHXBAI.

Birthday shoutout

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a girl who is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside, and who has been a continuous source of positive energy and inspiration to those who are lucky enough to know her.



Despite getting to know each other by a very uhh.. unusual way *winks*, I am very blessed indeed to be able to call this babe a friend.

It's spring in Brisbane so I thought I'd pick some birthday flowers from our garden for you :) and I want to say that the world would definitely be a less colourful place without you!



So have a fantabulous birthday, and hope u get spoilt rotten on your special day. ♥

Hello Sunshine!

The girlfriend and I, on a spontaneous whim, decided to go on a road trip to the Sunshine Coast.

We went to the Eunmundi art and crafts markets. It's been a while since I've been there, and I love this vibrant multicultural market with all its diversity and character. It's one of those lovely places where you can fully indulge your five senses- There's so much to see, hear, taste, smell and feel!

Unfortunately this is the only photo I've got from the markets...



... because I was too busy having both hands full with food the rest of the time!

We chomped down German sausage, gourmet calamari (pic), mango & macadamia muffin, sample shots of banana smoothie, kettle corn, homemade lemonade, gingerbeer, curried macadamias...

After spending a fair bit of moolah, we picked a random beach on the refidex, tapped it into the GPS and found ourselves at...



Beautiful Maroochydore Beach @ Cotton Tree :)

Brought my new book along!



Had a swell time baking in the sun and then trying to catch (with no success) what looked like little baby shovelnoses swimming around my feet in the cool, crystal clear water.

Summer is finally here! :D

Life is peachy

Walked past Oscar Oscar @ Indooroopilly and saw a sign promoting their Spring Stylecut Package, so I decided to spoil myself a bit since I was due for a haircut anyway.

I was lucky to be able to be slot in without making an appointment. My hairdresser was Bianca, and after being pampered with some hot herbal tea + a neck/shoulder massage + shampoo & treatment + cut, I walked out of the salon with the hair of a goddess, smelling like Aveda and feeling like a million dollars. So THIS is what you get when you pay shitloads for a haircut at a swanky salon!

Wow.



I want my hair to look like this forever, can?? T_T

Now indulging in grapes + blue brie on fig & grain crackers, while sipping on a hot cuppa Rooibos tea. Mmm.



And decadent Darrel Lea liquor chocolates waiting to be indulged in!


I'm not the biggest fan of chocolate, alcohol or fruit, but somehow when the three combine...

Gosh I really should stop rambling and get some marking done.

Friday tomorrow, YAY!!!
