I have a couple of things on my wish list that i’d like to have by the end of this year, or early 2011 at max inshala. And by early 2011, I mean by the end of January.

1) Sony NEX-5: Link

2) iPhone 4 (in white):

3) Online portfolio:

Domain name is purchased. Next step is a logo and a template branded with a theme as per the logo.

4) Personal cards:

Designed with a similar theme as the online portfolio (#3).

Tomorrow is Sept. 1. Let the count-down begin. Four months (or five).

I remember the last time I baked. It was 2 Ramadan’s ago. I was on a roll. I baked a carrot cake from a Martha Stewart baking recipes book. From scraaaaatch. The following weekend I baked a coconut/nut cake. They were both yummy. I had spent hours on the whole procedure, from buying the ingredients, to organizing the tools, documenting everything from beginning to end, listening to music while mixing the contents etc. It was fun, but it was a long procedure. Thankfully it ended in success and I had leftover crumbs to vouch for that. Ehm.

I’ve been meaning to bake cookies for 2 months now, but never got around to doing so. I also wanna make cupcakes. I found this easy recipe in a magazine the other day. I’d also like to bake a cake. Something new and unique. Hmm, its been 2 Ramadans’. I think that was a good enough break and it’s time to bake something else and that should last me another Ramadan or 2. *Turning the channel to Fatafeat for inspiration*

A good friend

A good friend is a person who becomes the voice of wisdom when you’re deafened by the screams of the emotions inside you, who clears away the blinding fog in your vision when you can’t see objectively, and who always has arms wide open when you know that what you need the most is a warm genuine hug to calm you down and help the pain go away.

I truly appreciate this quote. Why do we have money if we’re not gona use it for our own comfort? Of course we should be real about it and not abuse it for 2 reasons: 1) becuz I don’t actually sit on a bank or have an oil well in our little backyard, and 2) becuz sometimes its nice to do some things on your own. However, in many situations this quote is very applicable.

Lets say, for example, I have a collage of frames (8+) that I want to hang up in a specific way to fit a vision that I have for them in my head. Instead of going through the hassle of measuring the wall and where each individual frame nail should go and measuring the space between each frame and being so anal about making it as perfect as can be.. Instead of going through all that stress, I can just pay a specialized person to do it for me. I’ll put my money in the sun and chill out in the shade!
