Didn't exactly think that I'd be quoting Mark Zuckerberg, but I do like his definition of happiness. "To me, happiness is doing something meaningful that helps people and that I believe in with people I love. I think lots of people confuse happiness with fun. I don't believe it is possible to have fun every day. But I do believe it is possible to do something meaningful that helps people every . . .
Candid Snaps
I hate to be stereotypical and post about the MET Gala, but I came across these candid shots and just wanted to share. These are much better than the entire range of posed shots seen around the place [bends the elbow, puts hand to waist]. Random note, Rihanna's dress is insane. And not in a good way.

DRIFT With Me
Spotted this gem this morning - minimalistic perfection. Amongst the charming galleries, live music and a delicious foodie scene of San Jose del Cabo’s Historic Art District sits DRIFT, a boutique hotel aimed for young independent travelers. Inspired by “traveling without a destination”, it is a simple accommodation with a social atmosphere. "It is the prototype for a series of hotels that . . .
A Trip to Almost Paris
I have a confession. I have been a terrible blogger. Disappearing for months without a word - shock horror. If I ever go missing again and you miss me a little (I think too highly of myself), do check out my Instagram for some art, design and fashion pictures I spot around the place. So where have I been for the last couple of months? My roles and responsibilities at work got bumped up . . .
Hugs for All
It's always hard to come back to the office after 9 days of holidaying and sunshine. But then again, who am I to complain...who even gets week-long public holidays besides China? All say hoorah to Chinese New Year. I am now a very dark shade of brown; much healthier than pasty yellow though I must say! Winter doesn't do wonders for one's skin. Anyway, to the fun stuff...Someone told me about . . .
Letters that Pop
Having a personal interest in hand-lettering, I flip through a whole lot of stuff on a daily basis. This particular one caught my attention today - Turkish graphic designer and electrical engineer Tolga Girgin experiments with calligraphy, making the letters seem to pop off the page. Through shading, shadows and different forms of perspective, they're given a new kind of life on the page. Really . . .
Florals & Fashion
There have been great things coming out of Australia these days - admittedly, I get a little flutter of excitement whenever I see that something's from Australia. Call it pride or perhaps surprise, I'm not sure which. Being so far away from the rest of the world with a relatively small population (Shanghai has the same population as the whole of Australia), we don't normally have much news coming . . .
Ping Pong Fun
I hate that the word 'Ping Pong' now reminds me of seedy bars in Thailand. Perceptions. Do not fear, there is nothing dodgy about this post... A new advertisement by Pepsi MAX features 1840 ping pong balls and mousetraps. Intrigued? Check out the video to see what happens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7YQT6BCuAE Crazy and strangely awesome. via AdWeek. . . .
