It’s not my best work of Photoshop play and CSS code slinging but here it is. A whimsical and psychedelic outfit for the long abandoned intherain.org. I don’t mean to, but along with all my data that perished in the server crash last year, was the motivation that came bundled with the term “blogging”.
I don’t know if I’m fit for this blogging thingamajig but I remember having to suppress trains of thoughts whirling in my head, never halting, during my absence from the weblog scene. And then I feel grateful for the beautiful domain name and the availability of web space. So, much thanks to Jasmin and Jason.
Oh, and the other celebration? I turn nineteen today. I am very blessed, I know, and woke up this morning feeling like the world is my oyster. And I love oysters; especially the smoked variety that comes in a tin can.
Okay, enough of nonsensical babbling, here’s a quote I found while googling for oysters:
I don’t know any other lifestyle. I get up in the morning and I really do feel that the world is my oyster, and I start that way, the same as I would if I were preparing to write a song: put a blank piece of paper up on the piano and you go for it.
- Lesley Gore
Have a nice day!



It doesn’t take a lot to… excite me. Pens, paper, and prints are some of the things that would make my heart explode into a high-pitched flutter. I’d spend my last $10 on… a pint of mint choc chip ice-cream. Most of my time is spent… trying to fit into the sleeves of Melbourne pavements before I bid it goodbye in a few months. I cannot wait to… grow up. Though being twenty two seems like a herculean task already. The world needs... a pinch of skepticism, a shot of optimism, a teaspoon of chocolate powder, and a glass full of love.
