I love browsing the internet and windowshopping at the mall for home decorating ideas. I like observing how a certain bed matches with the tv mounts in a bedroom set up. Although sometimes, I get so inspired with all types of designs that I’m afraid I’d end up with a room looking in such a bad taste. It’s like when you’re trying to dress up that if you wear too much of the good stuff, you’d end up looking like a drag.

But there’s one self observation that is, I think, very relevant to planning an interior design, my wardrobe or even my scrapbooks. I love matching colors! It doesn’t have to be monocromatic, in fact, I prefer complimenting colors. I still won’t wear the orange, aqua and brown combo unless it’s a swimsuit though. Haha. But I’d consider the color combo on a bathroom or playroom.

Like clothing, matching prints can do or undo the look. For casual wear, I love wearing plain shirts and shorts while wearing chunky printed bangles. But for mixing and matching upholsteries, wall papers and throw pillows, I think the pattern distribution used in scrapbooking can do the trick. Mixing small and big patterns with (complimentary) solids, that is. Also, use smaller amounts of big patterns and more of the small and subtle patterns. The black&white pattern also tones down strong solid colors such as red, orange or turquoise.

Blogging from the Splash Mountain, and a bit sleepy, I squint at my teammate’s laptop while trying to browse for diamonds frames. Another team mate showed me hers and I want one for myself!

Speaking of Splash Mountain, I just want to share that I hate it!

Like I blogged last night, I’ve been looking forward to bringing our little girl to their kiddie activity area. In fact, I’ve asked my teammate, who’s also one of the organizers of this offsite to call them to ask if resort dorm is near the kiddie activity area. And they informed us that yes it is just walking distance.

Oh yes it is very near! BUT they didn’t inform us that it is CLOSED on weekdays!
FRUSTRATING!!! Argh!

And yes, the photos in their website are deceiving.

I am supposed to be sleeping now but still not finished packing our stuff for tomorrow’s offsite. Bringing sunscreen for the skin and another sunscreen for the hair. There’s sunscreen for the lips, right? I should buy that too. Haha. And oh yeah, better not forget my back acne treatment or it would be super uncomfortable at night.

I’m bringing our little girl with me. I saw this nice kiddie activity area from the venue’s website. I just hope I am not in any way fooled by that photo. Or I’d be very disappointed. It would be very hard to bring a toddler to an offsite so it better be worth it.
