idle

In Jiangsu now, visiting relatives here and there. Do not really wish to be here, but here I am. The days are eventful enough, but I cannot help but feel idle. As there is not much I can do at the moment to significantly move my life forward, I grow restless from inaction.

I spend the days reading and napping, and when I want to exercise, I take a walk.

2.5 more weeks left.

I wait.

I am leaving for Beijing  on Aug. 30th for my next internship. I don't know when I will be blogging next time, but hopefully soon!

Deux dodos de plus et je pars pour Pékin pour mon prochain stage. Je ne sais pas quand j'aurai l'occasion de blogger la prochaine fois, mais j'espère assez bientôt! 

Photos of China - coming up =) 

timeless

Photos taken somewhere between Prague and Vienna, June 2011. 

5AM

Some photos taken on my walk back home this early morning. 

I edited them with green-aqua-blue as dominant colours.

Went out last night to Nebe nightclub with my friend Djouma and other European people that I met at a flat party earlier on during the night. I love dancing for the sake of dancing!! It puts me in a great mood. I danced the night away and I am now exhausted. Hope to have a nice peaceful sleep till the afternoon or so. 

Petrin view

A photo taken on the Petrin Tower this Saturday, when I climbed up there with Andreas.

 Petrin Tower itself is 60 meters but since it is located on a hill, its altitude extends much further. It can be kinda exhausting climbing up there (especially if it's hot) but once you are up there, you can enjoy a really nice view of the city!

  

fade

I really like the faded colours of this picture, making it look like an old photograph. 

Goodbye Pacific Ocean for a while.

balloon bath

I've been wanting to do something like this for a while! Just got a tripod today for $17 and surely put it to good use, hehe! 

snow day :)

Location: UBC campus.

Feeling kinda crappy tonight. Perhaps due to a series of things that have accumulated. Hoping for a more cheerful day when I wake up.

17-Mile Drive, CA

Last weekend of this summer vacation.

vintage effect

Yay! I just learned a new way to give my photos a "vintage look" thanks to an article I found online. If you are interested, you can click here to see the tutorial. 

(Note: the tutorial is only applicable to Photoshop)

With vintage effect

I like it!
I will post more vintage photos using this method in the future.

I am so sleepless every night!
Have too many random ideas floating in my head.
Already 2:30am right now...
