10:53a - mini matchbox!
Each week, a decorated matchbox with a tiny present hidden inside is left by a girl (and sometimes willing friends) somewhere in her travels. It's a random act of semi-artistic kindness aimed at disrupting someone's day in a tiny but positive way. That's if they dare to pick it up...
It's been a rough couple of weeks and over the weekend, I had this fairly devastating realisation that I had either forgotten or misplaced the things that I enjoy doing, the things that make me happy and excited. So I took myself off to the markets and found myself nesting once again, in an attempt to make my newest home feel like my home. It's silly but I assumed that once you move, the new place automatically becomes your home but have since realised that more effort is needed that the physical moving of stuff (my most favourite leather jacket going missing in the moving process did not contribute to happy feelings of home!).
So I acquired a teapot with little mary janes, which will surely help the settling in process. At the end of the day, after work and all of the things I have to do, I just want my life to be comfortable and a little bit beautiful. And so today I plan to go in search of a cake tin to make a coconut cake I've been talking about for ages, pick up a small bunch of preferably pink flowers and fill in all the missing Beatles catalogue on my iPod. The Beatles is a default for whenever I'm feeling melancholic, especially Rubber Soul. And I hope to stay in search for happy colourful silly things...
I'm also on twitter like the rest of the world! Sometimes I have to twitter for work and I get mega paranoid that I'm going to tweet something dumb under the news tweet. Like I want a fingerbun or something! So far I've managed to tweet a news headline to my followers, but I guess the other way around doesn't matter so much. It just made me look like I was mad into the G20 or something.
** Thank you again to Nici at Blackbird Corner for sending me this little bird pin! She's on twitter too!
