recent additions...
Many may not know that I love collecting books. Even though I don't reallly read a lot, and when I do, I read really slowly, but I enjoy collecting books of different subject matter, different languages if I can, different ways of writing etc. Blank books, for example sketch books, note books, travel journal, also form part of my collection.
Recently, these are my 2 newest additions.
Somehow buying books make me very happy.

Beautiful Bali... again
My mum says I'm becoming a fan of balinese things... well, I can't really help it! hehe! I had some kino vouchers, and I used them on 2 books yesterday. One of which is a book on Balinese Architecture. I guess I can relate and understand it well now that I have seen and been there myself. There are so much to see still... and I really wish to be back there again some time again!

going places
I totally enjoyed my Bali trip last month. Coming home, was a little sad for me as I really love all that I see there so much, and I think there are a lot more to see. However, one still has to return to reality and continue with the life we put a pause to for a moment. So far, I have been really busy juggling work and new committment. At the same time, I am trying to sort out photos and writings for a travelogue on this trip to Bali. Hopefully, it will be completed before I embark on another trip.
Somehow, the middle of the year seems like a time for people to go places, change places, embark on new journeys in life.

beautiful Bali
I finally set foot on Bali last Thursday. It has been one place I have been thinking of going for such a long time... and finally, I was there. The trip was not very short.. but I wish it can be a couple of days longer. Coming home, I kept thinking about what I had seen and done in Bali. Fortunately, I still managed to get work done in office these 2 days. But I am quite sure I left some part of me in Bali still! haha! I think I am totally in love with Bali... The 5 days trip was a fantastic experience, and I managed to take some photographs and did some little sketches and notes. I wished I had more time to sit down and sketch the beautiful people and sights in Bali.
Hopefully, my love for beautiful Bali would motivate me to complete a travelogue this time. I am just starting to sort out the photos. I think I have a long way to get it done. hehe!! Hopefully, I will be able to share with everyone what I have experienced and how I feel about Bali soon!!
I am sure I will set foot in Bali again...
