Its been said time and time again, but time is really a very peculiar thing. You either have too much or not enough of it. You wait for ages and it goes by so fast. Case in point, graduation. With great pleasure, I am pleased to announce that I have finally GRADUATED from high school! Cheers, freedom, liberation. Graduation is funny, it was a moment that I had been waiting seven years for and it went by in a flash. With that being said, I wouldn't have traded graduation from anything in the world. Well maybe James Franco.  So I've finally had enough time of high school. However, I've also had enough time off blogging. Its no secret that I've been absent from the blogosphere for about a month, citing exams as the main cause. Now that they're done and dusted, I can't wait to get back to html formatting, photoshop curving and general shooting. Thus with the discussion of time, I'm rewinding back to the time we took these photos.

Conrad shot these on our last week of school. Our last week of school had different costume themes for each day. This was taken on 'throwback thursday', and I, seeing my obsessive fascination with the era that entered through the birth canal, threw back to my homegurl best friends Cher and Dionne of Clueless, a.k.a pure 90's heaven. I actually had a white button up layered underneath but I took it off because it was scorching hot and I wanted to show a more 'me' side to the look. Ultimately, while my high school experience did not include a 'tai-inspired makeover', it did spark my lifelong obsession with knee highs and plaid. So in true Cher fashion, AS IF HIGH SCHOOL.

Day/Post 18: A song from your favourite album

'Here comes the sun' by The Beatles

Here comes the sun is about as iconic as you can get. Famous from the eponymous album 'Abbey Road', its probably one of the 'most played' songs in my itunes library. I thought it would be fitting to this post as Nick shot me under Hong Kong's hottest sun, truly marking the arrival of summer in Hong Kong. However, the weather has now retreated back to its mundane typhoons. Woe woe woe. 

Abbey Road is such an iconic album and its definitely got a special place on my heart. I know that nothing beats the Lennon-McCartney partnership, but George really has some spectacular songs. A while ago in london (which you can see here), I went to a musical called 'Let It Be!', which was basically a constant hit of Beatles music, and it was great because it reminded me of other Beatles songs that I've missed out on, as well as the famous anthems. It really did make me want to travel back in time to see the Beatles perform live. Still, here comes the sun is forever intact in my heart. Ok enough with the cheesy talk. I'll leave you to enjoy this song.

PS: London, I'm not done with you! I've still got a couple of london posts lined up! Oh how I miss london.
