Let's Start Packing

There is no harm in dreaming... It starts with a dream, then you make it your goal. Goals where we have to work hard so as to convert them to reality. But it needs hard work and dedication.
Dreams converted to realities are the best prize for hard work. So I better start packing right now so that this dream will seem tangible... 

New dreams, new paths and new friends.... Just part of this new adventure that I am embarking right now.

Obsession...

Ever since I can remember, I have always loved books. My fondest memories are those times when my mother brought me to the public library and then going to shops to go book hunting. Thrift shops, second hand books, it doesn't matter.. For Christmas, I would reward myself with a few pocketbooks. I am no intellecual, I am not interested in books that require mental calesthenics. For me, it is a form of escape and relaxation where you go to places only the most imaginative minds can think of. Sometimes, I get paasionate on one author at a time. As a mother myself, it would really be nice if one or both my boys share this same passion with me but I doubt it... :-)

Dressing for Fun

As long as I can remember, I have always enjoyed dressing up as someone whom I was not. In my early years, I played a doll dancing with my owner... 














Thank God for company theme parties that I was able to dress up like one of my favorite Disney Character - Jasmin of Aladdin. 










For the superheroes-themed party, I decided to go against the tide and dress as the Villain Poison Ivy who was Batman's nemesis.  


Dressing up does not necessarily mean following the norms of fashion. As long as you have fun, who cares what anybody says. The important thing is that you are comfortable at what you do and most importantly it makes you happy.. 

I am also lucky that I have a Mom and Aunts who share my views and are good seamstresses... It doesn't have to cost a lot, sometimes its just hiding inside your closet and your just bound by your imagination..

Isn't dressing up a lot of FUN??? You get to play a character and get away with it... :-)
