I'm a fortunate bee who had time to chill and unwind, and escape from the busy life of a uni student. I hope i get to find a good work-life balance in future. Working hard is a must. Everybody has to adapt to this competitive world and contribute to the economy. But apart from the business world, we need to dedicate time to our friends, and family. And ourselves.

Of course, i like to spend such quality time away from the city. I remember the day mely visited melbourne i jumped at the chance to get out of the CBD and brought her to the outer part of melbourne.





Beach comber @ St kilda beach, Melbourne.

Here we didn't see people in suits, or working clothes, or students rushing to catch the tram. We saw couples wow-ing at the sight of jelly fish and elderly men with their fishing rods. Yes... yessss what a breather!

Now this is Husk @ toorak.



I read about this place over the internet and thought it seemed like a pretty place to check out with mely. And indeed, it was this charming little cafe sandwiched in between boutiques and fish-n-chip stores on a shopping street. And it was like uncovering treasure as we walked further in. It's not just a cafe, it's a boutique cafe. Affordable designer-looking clothes catered for middle-aged women, pretty candles and vases... all the way to the back is a small section with nicely spaced out tables and chairs, then walk a little further and it'll lead you to the courtyard! I loveee courtyards! It was floral themed and i swear the flowers knew exactly where to come in, so natural i dont think they were decorations. And in it were the pretty english tea tables. <3 That was the reason for the visit, but it was drizzling so we settled down inside, which was nice in another way. You know what i mean... sheltered from the rain, having tea and yogurt, cozy and comfortable. Nice!
