Boo...




Couples working & living together = relationship suicide?

I remember being rather nervous about having my bf starting a job where I work ... especially when we're going to work quite closely together. Being someone who appreciates 'me' time and my own space made it even more difficult. On top of that, we've never spent over a week together (we're constantly apart travelling & studying/working abroad). Magazines tell me status & power and constancy being some of the issues couples who work together face resulting in competition at work, boredom, distance and eventually a relationship falling apart.

Today was my bf's last day at work before he heads off to New Zealand.

I'm going to miss working with him. sharing laughter & joy with the rest of the team. shouting at him to hurry up in the morning. wondering where to have lunch. wink at him when others aren't watching. 'accidentally' bump into him in the kitchen. looking at each other and knowing our thoughts without a word spoken. and what im going to miss the most is peering over the computer to see him sat there working away, everyday.

I never thought I would have so much fun working & living with my boyfriend.
and now I have to say goodbye to both at the same time *traumatised

Have you / Would you ever worked with your other half? What do you think about couples who work & live together?

Panda



Aww Pandas are just so cute don't you think!! I've always loved pandas (well I love pretty much most of the animals, except for things like vultures and hyenas!). At work on Friday I just randomly blurted out to the whole office 'I'd REALLY love a panda as a pet...I want to prop him on the sofa and cuddle up to him'. It went completely silent whilst I was staring at a cute panda picture with my wild imagination before a burst of laughter hit the office. Sometimes I say stupid things I know but I just really really want one ... I've been thinking about it all weekend! I just need to get rich hey like Michael Jackson, he had a whole zoo in Neverland right?

I'll share some of my panda obsession with you...




Ahaha this is my panda toilet seat in Japan ... I loved waking up in the morning sitting down on the warm fluffy seat rather than cold seat!





This was a cute postcard from Japan ...




... and my loofah from my best friend <3 I wouldnt use it for 2 years cos its so cute and now everytime I use it I kiss its little cute face! (Ok i know im sad I cant stop kissing cute things)

So yah pandas = awesome. I dont care that they might squash me to death but I. WANT. ONE! My bf is trying to crush my dream. Until I have one, Im going to dress my dog up as panda and pretend he's one heeheehee sorry Patch.

So with my love for pandas ... naturally I'd love to get my hands on this fab giveaway here!


The panda speaker pillow is like WOW!!



Do you have an obsession with any particular animal?

Outdoor shoot

I have the copies of a shoot we did on Sunday, here are a couple, but I'm sure I'll blog more in the future:




I love this one!


Artistic shot


And a close up


The photographer is Jon's very talented and wonderful sister-in-law Theresa. You can find more information about her on her website here. Isn't it such a cute website! It was so much fun I want to do it again!!

Ooh and I've always been a bit of a save the World kinda person ... as I'm moving out I have lots of things I don't need anymore but such a waste to chuck things and contribute towards landfill. I found Freegle (Freely given, locally, easily) and listed some of the things I have to offer and loads of people has requested it! I'm giving away my washing machine to a single parent with two kids without a washing machine so hopefully that'll help him, and a double bed & single bed to people who need them! So if you have anything you don't need anymore (could be anything as long as it's free), register and help those in need!

Stressful weekend ahead - I haven't started packing yet ... oh dear!!
