Rainy Sunday

It rains cats and dogs for half an hour now. I feel like doing nothing but watching the rain falling from my window.

Rain rain go away, come again another day~

Pool on the roof top.

I kept the promise I made yesterday to my nephew. Today, I built a little nest on the roof top using my old tent from a party 2 years ago. The wind blows hard on the roof top, and the sun won't stop shining directly as if it could burn everything, this little nest is a life saver <3

Last year New Year's Eve

Today <3


He had a lot of fun today <3 I'm looking forward to the end of June, the my water bill arrives :'(

He's a good boy. He finds it necessary to wear those life savers~ even in a tiny pool
:v

Summer Breeze

33 Degree Celsius right in the middle of Saigon. I think I'm about to melt. However, the worst part had gone <3 In the end of March till late May, I had suffered enough at 36-38 Degree Celsius :'( It's okay now.

I love the beach. I have always dreamed of having a beach house or just a house in a city where I can get access to the sea as easily as the wifi. It is said that (by many of my acquaintances, my relatives) you would soon get bored if you spent your life at the beach. I, personally, don't think so. I don't think I could ever get tired of the beach. It's not like I love the outdoors. It's true that I prefer staying indoors and being a loner. I love the beach so much. I could spend a day or more just hanging out at the beach, even by myself.

I love the beach...
Last month, I visited Phan Thiet. It was not really a vacation. My aunt took me and my friend there so that we could visit the beach while she were teaching at a community college. I have to say, I do regret taking my friend with me. I know it might sound selfish. But my friend worked all the time. Even though that trip supposed to be all about hanging out and have fun, she spent most of the time working through the computer. I was left, not alone, but lonely.

Because of that, I assumed, I started to miss the beach so much. The last time I was there, I could hardly spend time with the beach, with my obsession. It's like having a cup of matcha blended right in front of my eyes and I just couldn't reach it. :'( This feeling is so hard to take.

I want to visit the beach as soon as possible. I plan on taking a road trip with my partner as we used to do in January. However, he's too busy with his job and he doesn't seem much interested in having fun in the water. I guess I'll just pack and visit the beach by myself... And if that idea craps everybody around me, fine, I'll just end up in the public swimming pools or on the roof top with my lovely backyard pool :">

Ombre my life


It's officially SUMMER!!!!! I'd finished my sophomore year and I still can't believe it. Time flew just by a blink of an eye ._. It's been half a year already.

This is a little project that I'm up to. I create some bookmarks and sell them on Linh's Secondhand Shop. This is my first time colouring something. Yes, I'm serious. I never actually colour something after I finish my sketch.


My creation for Instagram.com/linh_secondhandshop

I use colour pencils by Crayola. It was quite expensive after the tax had been included but I was lucky enough to get a pack of 24 colour pencils while it was on sale. Along with this pack, a box of 24 crayons was included. But I'm not really good at crayons so I just keep them in my desk drawer. Hopefully, I'll soon manage to use them properly in the future.

By colouring something for the first time, I found myself addicting to ombre style. I love mixing tones of colours and create abstract of colour changing. I've been addicted to many things until now. Well, it's not bad, right? When someone is obsessed with something, it's kind of giving them one more reason to live this life. <3

Gel Purfume - A Little Throwback.

I was never a girly girl. I acted and talked like a boy when I was young. By the time I went to secondary school, I started to pay more attention to my appearance and tried my best to blend in with others girls. I grew my hair long and tried different stuffs that a girl loved to do. Beside doing nails, I started using gel perfume.

Around 2007, gel perfume was very popular among teenagers. It was cheap and had lovely designed on each bottles. There were three to four different scents to try out. Usually, I chose the scent that no one enjoyed. It was not because the scent was too bad. I just enjoyed using the scent that was unique among my friends.

Today, I bought a little bottle of gel perfume. We rarely see gel perfume at the supermarket nowadays and it doesn't come in giant bottle anymore. It is quite expensive but in travel-sized which makes it super convenient to carry around.

Nowadays gel perfume

My feedback about this product is that it was quite sticky after apply on my wrist. Also, the scent doesn't last long as I expected. However, it never did even in the past. The price was like double up but it's really worth buying. I feel like being a teenager again :v well, it comes with bad meaning.
