This smiling lion is just too cute. I felt like he was telling me to enjoy my vacation. ;p

Love these little artworks that were on the walls in this area in Beijing (sorry I forgot the name!). Just makes everything more interesting.

Knick Knacks and Whatnot

I'm such a sucker for useless souvenires. One of my favorite things to do when I travel is to check out the souvenire stores. My family buys refrigerator magnets from all the countries and cities we visit then when we get home, we stick them on our refrigerator. So now, its covered with memories of all our family trips! Me on the other hand, I collect shot glasses and those are displayed on my bookshelf in my room. What do you collect?

Only in China

This is one mode of transpo that I'm pretty sure can only be seen in China! Amidst all the rickshaws in this part of town, I saw this vehicle like a little golf cart but check out the wooden details! That's what really caught my eye. It's like a moving piece of furniture.

Art and Color

Sorry I've been MIA for awhile. I needed sometime transferring my stuff and setting up my new laptop! Got myself a MacBook Pro ;p yey! And I'm LOVING IT. 

Things have been pretty busy for me recently with the 3 businesses I'm taking care of. Not that I'm complaining or anything but I was a bit worried that I would have too much idle time on my hands once I left my old job. Now, I keep myself busy but I get to schedule everything. I can adjust deadlines and manage my time much better. I like that I am able to make my own decisions on things instead of forever asking my boss. 

The picture above was taken in a little house in Beijing. I love how the art is also used for decor on the table. The colors are so striking and beautiful it just brightens up the table area. It could be a great idea that you can apply in your house!
