lit by moonlight

2 weekends ago, we celebrated the Mid Autumn Festival here.

mooncakes

Of course, most importantly, there were mooncakes. Plain lotus ones, double yolk ones, snowskin ones... I've come to like the snowskin ones a lot especially when they're cold, fresh out from the fridge.

We decided to take a walk around the neighbourhood with our little lanterns in tow. :) My bold (and childish) suggestion if I might add. I feel like the older I grow, the more I feel dissatisfied with the childhood I had. Why did I never have the incredibly gleeful experience of carrying a lantern lit by candlelight triapsing brazenly through the neighbourhood without a care of the curious (stunned?) looks from passersby? My motto is, it's never too late to create these experiences for yourself. 21? Pffft. I've always felt like a 10 year old.

Ok so I've finally decided to ditch awful photobucket which still isn't allowing me to view my own photos in my own account. O_o For some reason, I can't even view most of the photos in the previous posts on my own laptop... Hope it's not the same case for you guys? Do let me know if so! I grimace at the thought of having to re-upload all the gazillion photos from previous posts but if it has to be done, it has to be done. ;p This is my baby after all. In the meantime, hello to flickr.

The past weekend was pretty darn awesome. Lots of time spent GUILT FREE (post-test!) lounging around, finally opening up and reading a few chapters of a novel and spending time figuring out the new iphone4 my dear ol' mum managed to procure for me. :) And then there was really scrummy brunch on Saturday. MMM. At this rate, I'll NEVER run out of things to blog about.

Until the next time~!

  2. lynnette, these photos are gorgeous! it looks like you had an exquisite time celebrating during the mid autumn festival! and you're so right, it's never too late to create and execute childlike whims.

    i can see your photobucket pictures just fine. the trouble you said with them actually made me go ''uh oh...'' because I just uploaded some pics there because I hit my limit with flickr (haven't decided if I want to buy a pro account or not). well, i'll keep my fingers crossed!

  9. nette! i think photobucket is by far better than flickr, thats why i switched a couple years back in teh first place.
    why dont u just re-register and set up a new account? it could be that u went over yr bandwidth, in which case, get multiple accounts.
    hope u r well!
