Mum's Shop!

It's gonna be exciting! My mum is finally gonna get moving into her store. When exactly would that be, I'm not so sure. I was given the heads up back last month but stupid me, I've only got to realise that I really want to help today!!! Hence, full swing of excitement I've jot down lists of what needs to be done. (well, not a full lists but what may work for now...) And always first, I would like to research what's out there. Definitely the little touches will make major impacts. I want the shop to be exquisite and a v.girly kinda shop where ppl would just like to come in to get inspire, feel pretty, relax, i dont know! heheee...the ideal secret is to CUSTOMIZE. from the day bed, to the classic italian frames to the walk-in-closet...heheheheeeee...

See..I'm hitting myself in the head for not being involve with my mum's business/store. It definitely has great potential and I being the only daughter should hold up some of her responsibilities. PLUS, I always wanted to do personal projects. Which made me thought of a dear friend and i went we on our little road trip and saw this most amazing house which had alot of personal flair and touches to the house that I would move in anytime! hehe... too bad its so far away...

I've also got my eye on prize money $2000...lol...really want it!! Design a logo/poster that goes with a set theme...wanna win!! better get going on that as well as deadline is on the 24th! weEeeee... 2G's!

I'm gonna post up a classic photo of mummy and i in one of her early day shops...hehe..so retro!

Cut to the Brainstorm

U know when you just got that 15% left in a project, someone or something comes interrupt you with a "i need THIS done pronto". The three of us were kept in this situation today. I blew up. Unprofessionally. Banging. Slamming. Shouting. Urgh.

I'm trying to look for free resource online that has calendars, brainstorm sessions, our daily activities that I can share and access between the 3 of us. Hence, it becomes more collaborative as a team and we all know what's up in each other's shoes.

My searches has been looking back at tons of online design communities, the local scene is still in progress. Hope to see that happening soon.

I'm dreaming of fresh paper...

I typed it on an interesting search that I possibly may want to use rather than blogging. I came across this! Which at this very moment, I'm signing up.

Creating lists...& bookmarks

On a regular basis, I bookmark over 15 sites/per week. Instead of overloading and messing it up my mind with all these bookmarks and trying to visit them on a regular basis, this will be my connection between what I think, write, hate, do, believe, inspire, love on items I especially view from the web. I can't wait to see the connecting pattern (or none at all) of what visually entices me, things I read, stories I hear...get my drift.

Web:

and here this other link I got via the cool hunter, very intriguing.

Song addict:
Aerosmith - Crazy. the video of liv and alicia at such a young age. currently on today's playlist and youtube repeat.

I misplace my wallet at a popular cafe, really appreciate the kind-hearted ones who kept my wallet safe for me in their cash register!
