♥ Du Jour



1. Double sided tape is my new god. No kidding. I discovered it when my dress needed some sticking power for the formal, and I have fallen in love since. At that time, everyone thought I was a total weirdo for even thinking about sticking my dress to myself, and I had to explain to them it was totally normal, and yes, there is such thing as double-sided tape made for clothing. I’m not using the cheap craft double-sided tapes you get from Big W when you’re scrapbooking.

What’s best however, is that they have a whole variety of uses. They come in handy when you’re trying to wrap Christmas presents, or when you’re trying to seal a plastic bag, or when your belt keeps sliding off funny. Or you could always use it for scrapbooking, I guess. Like those cheap double-sided tapes you get from Big W.

2. Moleskines: I am going to get one as my diary for next year. What’s so special about them? They feeeeel like heaven. And apparently, they’re really good quality too. But I can’t say, because I’ve never really owned one. But I will! Soon enough.

3. ‘Chocolat’: This movie may be too sweet for its own good, but it is beauuutiful. Honestly, it’s romantic, leaves you with a warm fuzzy feeling, and it’s set in France! FRANCE! What more could you ask for?!

4. Reading: I've finally gotten back into reading. I used to read like a crazy bookworm until one day I simply stopped. I don't know why. Maybe it was stress from school or something, but I gave it up altogether. But now that its the holidays and I've more time on my hands, I'm reading like crazy again.

5. Darrell Lea’s Rocklea Road: I really shouldn’t be eating chocolate right now. I’m not even to THINK about chocolate in the next two years of my life, says my orthodontist. Sure, I nod. Whatever you say.

Do you HONESTLY expect me to stay away from chocolate for the next two years of my life?! I don’t think you do, so I am going to act accordingly and shove another piece of rocky road in my mouth. Hah!
