mini midnight escapades

The love for reading actually runs in the family. It was a quarter before midnight when my brother and I suddenly decided to grab some coffee, both of us wanted a quiet atmosphere to read. Immediately, we headed to the nearest 24/7 Starbucks and ordered some latte as spent the wee hours fully engrossed in our books. We finally decided to go back home when my brother couldn't hold his bladder any longer. At 1:45 am, the time where most have already gone to bed, my brother and I slowly made our way back home. It was then I realized a few things: 1. my brother and I have such a queer relationship and it's special in it's own way. I mean, who else would just go to a cafe and read books without talking to each other? 2. Singapore is so safe that we can actually walk home without being scared of what might happen. It's a beautiful peaceful country, indeed.

Tea & Books

Yes, the picture says it all! I cannot emphasize enough how I love love loove rainy days, books, and tea ( or tea latte, that sounds really good too ). Put them all together and you'll have a one suuuper relaxed Princess here! Leave me alone with a hot cup of something and a book, and I can survive all day without talking to anyone. I can literally stay in one corner and enjoy my alone time. Introvert cessy mode!!

I took this picture this morning in Starbucks. Usually on Wednesdays, I would wake up around lunch time since my class starts at 2 (hehehe sorry I'm such a lazy butt). However, today, I woke up at the right side of the bed and planned to go for a morning walk & breakfast! As you can see, that's my chai tea latte, mushroom & mozerella sandwich, and...tehnically 2 books. My planner and my sketchbook. I spent my whole morning in Starbucks not reading this time, but scribbling down notes on my planner and sketching. I was enjoying too much that I didn't even notice that 3 hours had already passed. I just want to share how refreshed I feel after my few hours of...you can say, solitary? It felt good to just draw and relax, and not think about projects or homesickness or future plans. I plan to do this more often because I think it is healthy for my soul.
