Thought i'll share some pretty things that i've come across while browsing through,aren't these strings lights just so pretty? i would love to buy and put them up in my room.

i had a pretty one for a long time and one day it just didn't light up so i had to throw it away so now i'm looking for a cute one just like these, hopefully will buy one soon and upload a picture.

so while i was searching for lights, i also found some more beautiful things that i sure can use right now.

if you guys like these, there's more on www.notonthehighstreet.com, so take a look or buy and i'm sure i'm not the only one finding out after sometime that i've clicked too many "add to my basket" buttons :)

"If one could only learn to appreciate the little things ... A song that takes you away, for there are those who cannot hear. The beauty of a sunset, for there are those who cannot see. The warmth and safety of your home, for there are those who are homeless. Time spent with good friends for there are those who are lonely. A walk along the beach for there are those who cannot walk. The little things are what life is all about. Search your soul and learn to appreciate."

Is it March already?

I don't know what happened but it seems i haven't written a single sentence on my blog during the month of February! i am so sad, its only been 2 months this new year. i promised myself i would write more.
i have been so wrapped up in things, i know, its not an excuse but i just couldn't find time to write anything at all.
but i promise (once again) i WILL write from here on wards.

February has been a fast, hectic but fun month. office work was more than i could handle but i somehow managed to complete my tasks and update everything.
took 5 days off and went on a trip with my husband, visited my sisters in Colombo, enjoyed a lot because we all had a blast. now i am back home, relaxed and re-energized.

so i'm hoping this month goes as smoothy as possible and i will focus on doing one thing at a time, not to rush things and enjoy what ever i do.

Ray Of Light

sun shines bright
above the skies
every ray of light
blinds my eyes

the air seems so warm
but gentle cool breeze
softy touches my skin
like a playful tease

The family. We were a strange litlle band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together.

 I love my family so much and these two quote's remind me of my lovely and also sometimes annoying family.

Mom, dad, my two elder sisters, elder brother and my younger sister are the most precious beings in this world.

Reading/Writing Corner

Reading is something I like to do very much and I do read books in my free time but these days you will find me glued to my lap top screen rather than my nose buried in a book.

Maybe its because rather than buying from stores or online and keeping them messily stacked on a side or in my cupboard, I can download e-books and systematically save in a folder in my lap top.
Also there are so many online websites where I can get e-books and places where I can read online.
One of my personal favorite is:  www.missliterati.com, here anyone can write their own story or read any of the stories people have submitted from all over the world, its fun and I always find something interesting to read.

Don't get me wrong, I do love BOOKS its just that for the time being as I'm living in a small room and I find it hard to put all my belongings in one small limited place.
When I get a place ( hoping to get one soon) where there is enough room for everything, I will definitely make an area like a reading corner or a small work space where I can do my reading and writing.With some bookshelves and a small table with a comfortable chair. Where I can sit quietly and write or enjoy reading a book.
Here are some ideas I've found while searching the web for areas like work spaces or reading spaces and I hope that one day I would be able to have a beautiful area like these too.
