It's beginning to feel a lot like...

Summer is Here, a photo by marianabigail on Flickr.

Summer!

Forget Spring- the flowers have bloomed, April showers are out of the way and the Sun's been giving it its all recently.

Tints and Hues

"One day," you said to me, "I saw the sunset forty-four times!" 
And a little later you added: 
"You know--one loves the sunset, when one is so sad . . ." 
"Were you so sad, then?" I asked, "on the day of the forty-four sunsets?" 
But the little prince made no reply.

All photos taken with my iPod.

Sad or not, I love sunsets. Like sunrises, there's this sudden calm that settles on the city for that one moment- the sun's moment and one you share with it. 

And then, just like that, it's gone.

I have a photostream!

And now, gentle ladies and men, I've gone Pro. Flickr wise, at least.

I've spent most of today uploading photos of the past which I'd been wanting to share and hope to post Bangkok photos tomorrow/this weekend.

I love taking photos, but one thing's for sure: I need to work on taking portraits, photos of people. I can get unnaturally close to an animal for a picture, but when it comes to a person... I get nervous. It's something I need to work on and am willing to overcome.

Anybody want to be my model?

On Hold (For the Time Being...)

Favourite Movies. Favourite Places Visited.
Bangkok's already quickly becoming a runner in the latter category...

However, before I get to blabbering on about my top favourite categories (who doesn't like movies or travelling?) I wanted to share the only semi-colourful section of my new room.

I am also absolutely in love with my new bedding. Pictures of that tomorrow, as I still haven't finished washing my duvet (for the extra fluffiness). 

I still think the room needs a little bit more colour.
What could I used to hang stuff up without damaging the walls?

* Seriously. I don't know what I'll do when picnik.com will no longer be running. Quelle dommage!
