So here's a rough update on how my week and weekend was. I know it's a little late since it's already wednesday but......

It was quite a good weekend, where I attempted to cook one of my favourite Singaporean dishes-
Yu Pian Mi Fen Tan (Sliced Fish Noodle Soup) and I guess it came out pretty good. Even though it didn't exactly taste like it, it was slightly close to the original so it's considered a success to me since it was my first attempt in my sad 17 years of life to cook soup. When I say soup I meant soup from scratch. Not those canned soups where you just add water and boil.

Also went to my uncle's place to celebrate Hari Raya on Sunday where his wife, who is malay, cooked all these amazing dishes which included lontong, satay, chicken renndang, ketupat, and those crazy good snacks that I basically devoured.

Received a letter from Pamela yesterday and it basically made my night. My love for personalised/hand written stuff has not faded. I doubt it ever will.

It's all these small events that makes me feel like distance doesn't matter, yknow? Receiving handwritten letters, cooking singaporean food, eating malay food....... Feels like home.

On another note, spring is coming! I can feel it. This week has been so much warmer compared to the past few weeks of crazy cold wind blowing in our faces and icy raindrops hitting our heads all the time, today the wind wasn't cold and the skies are clear. Spring is going to be amazing.

And of course, not forgetting spring collections appearing everywhere on all the online shops/catalogues. I am in love, once again.

So in celebration of Spring 2012, let us admire some of the photos from the amazing photoshoot for the catalogue of Wilfox's 2009 spring collection because I am completely obsessed with grainy orangey vintage coloured photos, crop tops, flat stomachs, ombre hair, high socks, late 80s - early 90s fashion, bare-faced, freckled models at the moment.
