Some more Flickr for me please

I never bothered going onto sites like Flickr or Photobucket,but I've recently started getting quite obsessed with Flickr.I am a picture stalker,especially of other people's homes.I just love seeing how people decorate their homes and how they make their private spaces special (that sounded kind of dirty,it wasn't meant to be).

Here are a few of the places I've found on Flickr,and just love to death.If only I had the creativity to do things like this to my place.Alas,I'm creatively challenged.There should really be some sort of organisation for that,since everything seems to have an organisation these days.

A very wet weekend

Nothing too extraordinary happened this weekend.Well,except that our bedroom got flooded.I was so shocked,I didn't even get my camera to take a few pictures.

The problem is that JC and I are kind still getting used to the new washing machine and its little quirks.This time,the pipe where the water comes out,slipped out of the sink and thus led to a water-filled bedroom (our apartment is so small,the washing machine has to be in our bedroom - how romantic).

JC obviously wasn't impressed at having to conduct such a major cleanup on a Sunday morning,but since it has been very hot lately,it all dried out pretty quickly,and by this morning,most of the water was gone.

On a nicer note,my sister and nephew are in town,and I am absolutely loving having them here.Ludwig is the most adorable boy,and is always smiling,and posing for the camera.Just my kind of boy.

Other than babysitting Ludwig so my sis could get a bit of much needed sleep,we just made a lot of food,and stayed indoors watching movies,because it was scorching outside.The old school aircon we have in our apartment was working overtime yesterday,poor thing.

The weather forecast showed temperatures of in the 40 degrees celsius for the whole week.

Yay!Can't wait,because I absolutely love feeling like a boiled (and thus sweaty) piece of meat.Very sexy.

Carrie Bradshaw's Apartment

I was always a BIG fan of "Sex and the City",and even though I was still in school during the biggest part of the 6 season run of the show,I made sure to never miss an episode.

That's why I was super excited to see the movie,and when I did,I wasn't disappointed.It was just like a natural continuation of the show,and that is exactly what I had wanted the movie to be.It also made me miss the show even more!A box set of all 6 seasons of the show would be my dream gift (*nudge*nudge*wink*wink).

One thing I always really,really loved and was very jealous of,was Carrie's apartment.It just looked like the quintessential New York apartment,and I loved how cosy,comfortable and yet stylish it looked.Since I can remember,that is what I wanted my apartment to look like.

The turqoise,cream,black and brown colors along with the bunches of books and picture frames on the walls,are right up my alley,and there isn't a thing in this 'apartment' that I would change.Except maybe a little more spicing up in the kitchen and bathroom.Although all SATC fans know that the kitchen was rarely used by Carrie,and the stove was basically only more place to hoard her shoe collection.So it's understandable that it is quite bland.

Either way,I love this apartment,or rather the look of it,and when I grow up,and finally decide to start making my place look a little better,this is definitely the look I'm going to go for.
