Spring Episode II.


During the evening I took a long walk down the trail to explore more Spring beauty. I have a love-hate relationship with bringing camera for a shoot out alone. One hand I enjoy my personal company that brings no pressure and time constraints, the other I am aware of how others would think of me. I was born very shy and timid and I really hate making eye-contacts at times. Though, these few years I'm gradually becoming more confident in dealing with social bonds. As I walked in circle round the tree to locate a good angle, two girls passed by and mumbled What's wrong with that girl...? I didn't turn my back but surprisingly I didn't feel embarrassed. It only made me think how important it is to adhere to your own principles and take people's sights and opinions easy. 

I enjoyed very much the walk. The wind was a little too strong but everything was just as nice. I walked a road embraced by trees and the rays found ways between the trunks. 


Bought this mini fox box of color pencils, love them! 


Made French toast sandwich for breakfast the other day. Breakfast made easy - just attach two slices of smoked hams and a slice of cheese between two slices of breads lightly coated with eggs and pan fry with butter. Cut diagonally into four equal triangles. 


On a side note, I made a new moving banner (I'm guessing there's no specific name for that?), courtesy of Stephanie Lee. I love it so much! Be sure to check out her site, absolutely my kind of thing! 

Have a lovely week! 

love, M
