Jump for JOY!

My niece was so happy to hear the good news about her mother!

.

Well...my sister's surgery was a success & her doctor told us that 

she can leave the hospital by the end of the week! ~WooHoo!

.

Great reason to do the happy dance...

or have I been feeding her too much sugar??!

errr...this nanny is definitely no Julie Andrews' Marry Poppins!

Weekend is upon us...

For those of us in the States...

* Happy almost Memorial Day long Weekend! *

So thankful to all who have sacrificed so much for this country.
What are you guys up to? Delicious picnic or BBQ in your plan??
I'm going out of town to visit my lovely sister...

Next Monday, she is going to have surgery to remove another tumor.

I'll be babysitting my sweet nephews & niece while she is in recovery.

Keep her in our prayers pretty please... ~thank you so much!

My colleague at work has the above visual delight as her desktop wallpaper...

Being nosy as usual, I asked her, "Woah! Gorgeousss...where is this PARADISE?"

Her reply was "gee...How do I know, I just like the colors!"

She later sent me the Wallpaper Link, but unfortunately the site

does not provide much info, only 'Maldives-Base-Resort' (grrr...)

After much click-click-clicking on Google Image, I was so thrilled

to finally find the answer!

This tropical paradise is Huvafen Fushi Resort in Maldives. 

ehem-ehem...I can be a good private investigator, don't you think so?!

[ more info+pics HERE & HERE ]

Anywayyyy...

I'm definitely keeping the links in my 'Dream Destination Folder' 

just in case I need a vacation in paradise!

.

Just take a look at the pristine white sandy beach, plus that infinity pool!

" ahhh... Le sighhhhhh..."

'O' Funny Faces

..

Priceless facial expressions, aren't they?
I can actually still hear the screams !!!

'Oprah's Favorite Things & Big Surprise' episodes 
were always so much fun to watch!

Well, last night I stumbled upon this hilarious site:

' Faces of the last season of Oprah.Tumblr '

(cracks me up!)

As most of us know, today is going to be Oprah's final TV show.

I think many of her fans are truly depressed and are consulting with their psychologists 

in order to cope with her departure! Understandable huh? Oprah has really connected 

with all her loyal audience for the past 25 years in 150 countries! 

I shall miss her too (sobs*), her inspiring shows were parts of my life...

.

“ One of the biggest things I learned over the years is that people 

want to be heard. Every human being, no matter what age,

no matter how old we get, is looking for the same thing. 

What everybody wants is to know: do you see me; did you hear me 

and did what I say mean anything to you. 

That is what everybody is looking for… ” ~Oprah Winfrey

..

Oh so true!
That's why I blog ~hello...
~XOXO*

If I were a color today...

.

if you were a color...

what would you like to be today?

~XOXO*

" Aha ! "

Canadian artist Nadia Tan, literally had a 'light bulb moment' recently!

Her stove light blew out and was determined to do something creative with it...

She found this DIY site; 'how to hollow out lightbulbs'.

Now she gets quite excited every time she finds a burnt-out light bulb!  

Take a look at some of her beautiful creations :

 hanging vase and mini terrarium for her ginger root sprout.

~How CHARM-ing! 

.

...And her adorable miniature paper clothes have 

found their new homes as well! ~Brilliant!!

Hello Everyone!

Not really sure why I didn't share this with all of you sooner...

Earlier this year, my dear brother gave me this book for my Birthday!

Such a wonderful special gift idea!

I was so impressed with the fine quality, hard cover and all...

" Blogger, what's UP with that?! "

As some of you fellow bloggers may already know...

Blogger deleted some of our posts & also your recent lovely comments during

their latest service outage, and I'm not sure if they will ever be restored, so frustrating huh?!

Can you imagine if all our blog posts thus far suddenly *poofed!* disappeared?

Eeek...NIGHTMARE !!!

.

Have a great weekend everyone!

~Peace*
