Towards the end of the summer but we're still getting pouring rain.
Actually I dun really mind raining cos it is always the weather make me calm and relax.
Still remember back in high school time I used to leave the window slightly open to let the cool breeze come into my room
And sitting on the edge of my bed next to the window and stared in the rain.
Sometimes a moment like this will make me miss home.
-----------------------------------------
The passed few weekends were quite fulfilling.
We went shopping, outing, road trip, getting furniture, tidy up house...
We both have quite some stresses on shoulders atm but still try hard to make sure our weekends well spent :)
One thing I love about Aussie land is that there's always SALE on
Basically every 3 months things are on bargain and you have no excuse not to just "have a look"
And now my sister is also in Brisbane so more shopping power LOL
Plus I think I have quite a good sense for our coming wedding
the clear direction and theme give me more reasons to shop around
|
When two girls down to shopping... there is always more to buy... |
|
We pretty much forgot the lunch at DFO and soon after we coming out we realise YES we are hungry! |
|
SanChurros yummmmm |
We actually start collecting our couple photo shoot props and wedding deco pieces
|
Wooden letters from Typo - 3 for $10! |
|
Vintage picnic box with cutlery from Kmart - $12 |
|
Wooden photo frames from Target - $31 for two |
Whatever we buy we make sure it has more than one use.
And because we still have plenty of time til the wedding I make sure we can max every dollar we spent
In this way I can have more things I want within our budget
Well now I mention about the budget...
We have not draw up the budget yet! *Top listed*
-------------------------------------
I'm very weak in alcohol so YH is helping me to build up my strength by increasing my drinks quantity
We started with wines and beers and now we have some Vodka at home
Can't forget that have to seriously watch out the calories but I think I'm managing well
teehee**
|
Lime n Bitters with vodka (used soda water) It actually tastes great! |
After quite some time we visited Ikea again *yay*
It is one of my favourite place to spend the whole day with
(even not buying anything but looking ideas for future home)
Can't deny we are 'home couple'
Have been renting for several years now and we always live with restrictions eg money/space
Now I'm just thinking we actually deserve something better in house
Cos who knows when we will move into our own house and we are wasting our life just for WAITING
Life shouldn't be wasted on 'wait'
If we can, then have the life we want!
We finally put our falling apart sofa bed on Gumtree and sold for $20
Haha! not too bad cos we bought for $50 second hand
So now our living room is ready to welcome a new sofa!
Getting it soon!
|
A must have meatballs treat at IKEA :) |
|
We really think IKEA has improved in products quality. Everything look gorgeous and delicate with great price! |
ohhhh can't wait for our own space!
-------------------------------
Went to Maru Korean Restaurant in city last week and were quite surprised with the food

Well need to thank to Sandra and Amanda put up a great weekend dinner plan!
Eat Street Market at Hamilton
It was so crowded when we were there but with the million food choice you will forget all the push
It is a place to my liking bcos of the country setting and lighting
and easy parking and live band in open space
Will definitely go again and again!
|
First try on Cronuts - Croissant donuts. Interesting combination from US. |
|
We sat there for awhile after they head off. With no reason, I just love the grass carpet sooosoooo much. |
A Sunday morning that have no milk and bread at home
So I brought yh out to mall for a long lost breakie at Jamaica Blue
I kinda have a 'country fever' I think.
Am so in love with all vintage country places and things.
Maybe it's bcos I always keep them in myself and now I can actually have these things in my wedding so put all the desire top on the demand
Yes, I'm a vintage girl :)
