Old friend

Jo has arrived in Brisbane since Tuesday and we are able to catch up. She was from the same primary school but we were from same section. We met each other in secondary school and became friends. She migrated to NZ since F.2 and we still able to keep contact. The last time we met was already two years ago.

We met several times this week and had a very nice chat. We talked about our life, our memories and our past. Many has happened but it was so happy to share our experience again and exchange our advice via life. I have not had such a sincere and nice girl chat for a very long time and I really miss it. I have again saw the real and old "Me". I miss girl chat so so much. I found that talking via all of that enables yourself to think about what you have been and your future from another prespective.

Sport x Roman shoes


Honestly I do not understand why Nike will design this shoes. I cannot deny the importance of innovation and continuously creativity for the trendy sport brand but I think the design of this shoes is a bit weird. Is it a sport sandal or just roman style shoes with a Nike logo ? Most of the design from Nike are special and unique such as the woven air, presto etc, they are nice looking and comfortable to wear. However, this sandal is not my cup of tea and even though I support Nike for so long , I would not consider this at all.

Double yolks


Anything special from the picture. That is what I ordered at restaurant last Sunday and I found that one of the egg had two yolks inside. It is not the first time I found two yolks from one egg but it was the first time I got it from restaurant. Hopefully this is a good sign for that after all.

Meow

Cookie always sounds like a cat. I do not know whether it is common for dogs to sound like that but this is the first dog I met that sounded like a cat. He always makes this sound and I finally able to record it. It is very cute to hear that.

A bigger mirror


I always want to have a dressing table inside my bedroom. It is honestly important for a girl to have a nice dressing table with all the skincare, make up and accessories on the table with a big mirror attached as it is very convenient for doing the skincare routine and make up. In the old house, I just put a very small make up mirror. I dislike using that because I have to bend my knee all the time to adjust the angle every time. So, I usually did my make up inside the bathroom with a bigger mirror and more light available. But it was very troublesome as I had to pick the cosmetics or skincare to the bathroom and then put it back to the bedroom. So, I would end up walking several times from bedroom to bathroom for just having a finished make up. Even though it was a ensuite, it was tiring to repeat this step every time I put on make up or skincare.
After moving to the new home, I really wanna buy one but they are very expensive. Most of them at least cost about 500 to 600 aus and it was sure too much as I already got a chest of drawer in the bedroom. I guess what I need is another big mirror on top so I can do things easier. I saw a nice mirror at a tribal fashion shop yesterday and I decided to put that on top of the chest of drawers so I do not need to think of getting a dressing table but still able to do my make up just in front of all the materials without bending my knee any more. It is a nice mirror decorated with mosaic technique. It may not be the perfect fit to the style of the room, but I love to have something unique to add a bit of colour to the room.

Poor little cookie

Poor cookie hurt his back leg last Saturday. He immediately screamed after he got hurt and started not to use the back left leg any more. He used his other three legs to walk, run but occasionally use that hurt leg to scratch his ears. I touched the legs and sure he did not break any bone. I guess he twisted the leg and hopefully he could be better within days. During the first few days he got hurt, he did not wanna play any toys he used to like. It is so sad to see his walk every time as I was afraid he would be like that forever. Luckily, he was limp for three days and started to use the hurt leg to stand and walk this morning. He also willing to follow me upstairs and I guess he will be fine by the end of this week.

Decoration


After putting all the big and necessary furniture and appliance in place, this is the time to put some decoration for our home. The first one is the drawing as shown above. This is a gift from Tao's uncle and auntie. This is a very nice drawing and Tao and I decided to put it at the entrance . The picture pops on the white wall and I really like it. I never put such a big drawing on the wall before and I notice it is a great investment for decoration. It makes the home not so empty and adds a bit of color on our ordinary white wall. Although I do not understand much about arts, I enjoy having it at home. I guess I will put some small pictures along the corridor as well.
