my mum is my inspiration. since i was a little girl, she has always encouraged me to explore my artsy side through art classes, dance, music and crafts. all things that i grew to enjoy immensely in life later. but i thank my lucky stars all the time that i got a little creative bone from her.
inspired by these images, we're working on a new project this christmas. a collaboration of sorts.. but more like im her assistant and she runs the show actually... i get all the 2nd-class tasks, ironing seams, cleaning loose threads, hold the cloth but i'll gladly play 2nd fiddle to her.. its already a promotion cos when i was younger, i was only allowed to watch but not touch.

ReplyDeletebingo! :) thus far i've stayed at my friends place. but NYC is known for their luxurious hotels.. not entirely sure about cheap accomodation!! there is a website that has vacation rentals, you stay in people's home but pay less than hotel! :)

the hotdog place "nathans" is all over the states but the orginal home of nathans is at coney island in brooklyn! do check out central park, my favorite place!
