What A Suprise And...

How sweet to be woken up by such a sweet kiss from my prince charming. it was a short stay this morning but i shall see him again soon.

I searched for quit some time and finally found an adorable little mac book. my very own to take around. on all the adventures and tea parties i go to! This also means, new posts. Its almost the end of summer, and i have missed out on all your wonderful stories & i have told non of my own. Do you want to hear a few whispers of my summer? I took off to canada and fished in the huge open sea with fisher men all excited to catch fish early in the dark morning with the cold fog bank right next to us. I also picked blueberries with my prince and ate more then we should have. We hiked in the forest and had picnics with the butterflies and eagles. Little glasses of wine and dancing under the stars, with laughter threw the night and giggles in the morning.

On the other side of this summer was hard work. behind a desk. taking care of a business isn't always easy so ive learned. but pays well and therefore worth it in the end. I do hope you've all had a lovely summer! Sorry i've missed out on so much.

i know i've been given awards. i dont think i'll be able to find them and post them on my blog. but i do want to thank you! a million delicious strawberries and a shooting star for such a thoughtful gesture.

XOXO
LILY.

ps. i promise ill be back! Because ive missed this ever so much.

Smiles To You

Todays my day off! I made myself breakfast and then jumped right back into bed to eat it and watch my favorite cartoon tom and jerry. I cant wait till i hv someone to make me my breakfast in bed. but until then i dont mind making my own.
i dont care for sryup all that much. if i do have it. i always dip my food into it. never drizzle it over my food. i dont know why but ive never liked it that way. you cant see my pretty sparkly silver toes. but i painted them lastnight before bed.it was a gift from my best friend joelle. who i call joeylove.

oh! i had this white wine tea, its delicious. its called napa blanca. from a little tea shop here in hawaii. Isabella was still rather tired, and she had no reason to be. All she does is stay home. maybe just going up and down the stairs and following me threw out the house, makes her sleepy. today im going to take her to the park or maybe even the beach.
Ok, im off to spend the day with V one of my other betsies! we smile and giggle all around our beautiful hawaii. tanning on beaches. walking threw malls. eatting at favorite little restaurants. batting our eyelashes. taking silly pictures. singing out loud. quietly drinking tea. riding bikes while talking story. spotting out all the eye candy whispering our secrets. speaking our own language. writing in pretty notebooks. ending each day with a hug. &i have yet to know wat todays adventure is...

Forever,
Lily

PEEK-A-BOO.

HELLO!
Look whose back, I've left you all for a very long time. again. Its rubbish not being able to keep up with my blogging. I miss you all so dearly!


My mornings are full of getting ready. running out the door to catch the bus. and heading off to work, before the sun wakes up. not even a spare second to grab something to nibble on. work is quite busy at the moment!! Our store is full of Japanese tourist wanting to shop and buy all the cute clothes we sale! I've spent little time on the beach. so i am starting to look pale again. my Christmas was lovely. i spent it with family and friends. my favorite gift would be my perfumes! (of course) and a kolohe kai cd with my favorite song, ehu girl(:


new years eve was a blast. we had the neighbors over for dinner and a bunch of the younger kids popped fireworks all threw the night, we played games and then i fell asleep with my Isabella as the clock tick-tocked until 11:55. i woke up and celebrated new years day by drinking sparkling apple cider and shouting with everyone else(: im still thinking of new resolutions that i shall share with you soon. i hope yours was just as exciting! Happy New Year!

silly me.

The starfish are my friends. they hang out to keep me company when everyone else has left me. they make me laugh as they sit on my keyboard. dancing away as i type. do you have lovely friends like my beautiful starfish-ies!?

i jumped in the shower early this morning. as i stepped out of the shower i realized i was still very sleepy. i could smell the coconut and vanilla of my shampoo and conditioner as i sat on my bed ready to fall back asleep. all fresh and clean. but i couldn't. i had a very busy day to get ready for. izy got very annoyed with me moaning and groaning about having to stay awake that she got up from the foot of my bed and hid behind one of my rather large pink pillows to get as much sleep as she could with out hearing me mumble.

After counting to ten and making a wish i jumped up and finished getting ready. i couldn't find my blush brush, so i pinched my cheeks, grabbed izy from behind my silly pink pillow, slipped my sandals on, and ran out to my car. it was raining! the two of us got all wet.

i quickly dropped her off at the doggy salon down the street and drove to the cutest cafe you've ever seen. i had a delicious acai bowl with coconut! it was so yummy i almost forgot to do my devotions as i sat in the cafe listening to smooth jazz music. i made a few more errands and before i knew it, it was time to go home...

i got home just in time to make dinner which was quite a masterpiece. considering im a bit more than a little under the weather. i made quinoa pasta with kale and bbq chicken. i don't eat meat but my family does. i couldn't make them suffer by only having healthy pasta for dinner, so i made them their favorite chicken to enjoy along side my healthy pasta dish.

the night has been with me for quite some time now, and my day was rather exhausting so it is time for me to fall asleep with my pink pillow and tiny puppy. good night lovelies!

lily.

Goodbye&Hello.

When i close my eyes...

i'm climbing to my secret hiding place away from everyone up in the magical green misty forest where i'm free to write and daydream with the raindrop fairies and sound of little birds chirping away bringing a smile to my face.

I'm snacking on a few delicious cookies my mother baked for lunch. And I'm back to blogging! I'm terribly sorry I left without a warning. One crashing wave lead to another shiny of a star which led me far away from a computer for quite some time. But I promise you I am back and I shall never disappear without warning again(: hello blogging and goodbye summer...

I hope you all had a wonderful summer! There is much oh much to much to try and fill you in about my summer. But I had a wonderful time running barefoot threw the sand. Laughing into the night. Crying with loved ones. Partys with sweets and magical drinks. Counting the stars. Filling the quiet of the night by playing beautiful music. Jumping up and down only to smile bigger and bigger. Tanning in the lovely sunshine. i have lots to catch up on! i cant wait to read all your lovely special blogs tomorrow morning over breakfast!

goodnight!

xoxo

a short post with snowflake eyelashes

Easter morning i woke up to find a tiny gift waiting for me on my bathroom counter. i slowly opened it to find the prettiest little headband. mascara. a pinky lipgloss. and some yummy chcolate. i started nibbling on the chocolate before i could take a picture of my sweet gift.
i stumbled upon the cutest little tag this week! but i cannot remember where so i am sorry i cannot mention the sweet blog i found it on. All you have to do is answer with the first thing you think of when you read the phrase. & tag two people.

Don't forget to: kiss me goodnight
Can't live without: the midnight moon & its twinkling star friends
My last dream: made me laugh
The place you miss most: home
Going out: for breakfast, is my favorite
Close your eyes: &im in your arms

i tag the creative Michelle from Sticky Kitten & Sara from Thursday Afternoons <3333

it snowed all day yesterday. &i was trapped in the house. i looked out my window & watched as the snowflakes came falling fast from the sky. i had a tiny photoshoot with my little sister. she wore a pink tutu i made a while ago. it was a bit silly of us. but we laughed and had fun.

i want to be a star. to glow and shine.

I visited the next town over this week and stopped in a tiny shop on their main street. i found a pair of peacock earring that i absolutely loved. they somewhat get lost in my auburn hair but the blue and green catch your eye. the lady working in the shop was the nicest girl i have met in a long time. she made me laugh and showed me around the shop and all the little things they had for sale. i also found a tiny stick of perfume. its so darling. its perfect for my purse and purple! one of my favourite colours!

It was my parents anniversary last night. After going out to dinner to celebrate we all came home and my mother and i watched the movie Stardust while eating a very chocolate coconut pie she made the other day. Have you seen the movie? it was darling! i fell in love with it and i secretly wish i lived in such an adventurous and magical world. where they sold babylon candles to transport you to any place you thought of, where unicorns came to your rescue, where a boy would come and throw rocks up at my window during the night and take me a to a beautiful picnic under the stars with champagne and candles. and how lovely would it be to glow like a star every time you got that tingling feeling inside or felt so overly happy. if you havent seen the movie you must! it was just the cutest.

Im sitting by the fire nibbling on a slice of banana bread my sister made for breakfast this morning. Outside the sun is out and the snow is melting slowly. my week ahead is to be lazy. stay in bed. drink tea. paint my nails. watch movies. and bake sweet sugary goodies while still in my pajamas. Finally after all this work ive been ever so studiously working on while hidden away in my princess chamber I have an entire week to sit back and relax. To stay curled up in warm fuzzy blankets. and sip delicious tea from pretty little tea cups. and catch up on very needed sleep.

Hello Again!!

OhMy! it has been to long. to long. to long. I can't believe its been longer than a month since my last post. it makes me sad i haven't been able to post lately. i miss it dearly! as well as reading all of your wonderful blogs! My days have been filled with sweet desserts. laughter. dear old friends. extra work. surprises. little sleep. many cups of tea. snowflakes. more work. a new hair colour. new friends. research. party planning. and a dream come true!
This semester i have three extra classes. Which takes up all of my precious free time. i only have two more months and then im finished with school. and i can sit back and enjoy summer! which is my dream come true...im moving back to hawaii!! I cried i was so happy to hear my family decided to pick up and move back, and i shall go with them. finally back to my home sweet home. of course i shall miss my beautiful winter wonderland. but my frozen little toes and nose will be so happy to be back in the warmth of the sunshine.

This past week hannahlove came to visit. It was such a lovely week getting to spend time with her. i hadnt seen her in two years!! you can image how excited we both were to finally see each other again. We spent our nights on main street eating crepes and sitting around the warm fire. we met a drunk old lady who was the cutest little thing. she made us laugh the whole time she was by the fire. we also met a guy from hawaii! i was so excited to meet someone from my home sweet home. Hannahlove is home and i miss her. mainstreet isnt the same without her. but my cousins, aunties, and uncles are flying in today for a week. so our house will be full of people. I love having family visit.

Saint Patricks Day, i bought myself a big cookie. and shared it with my little sister. and even gave a tiny piece to isabella. she thought i was very delicious and wanted another piece. but my little sister and i had already eaten the whole cookie. all that was left were tiny cookie crumbs on our fingers and around out mouths. i sat back today and wrote in my notebook, another little poem...

You're the sparkle in my heart

That makes my smile grow

Because with you I laugh

When I'm with you

My soul dances

And heart takes flight

Because with you I dream

Your something special

Because with you I live

Life is so much happier

When you're here

Please oh please don't leave

My heart tells me

I have a secret crush on thee....

Izzy is curled up and ready to go to sleep. i've had a long day and tonight is so cold. i think ill fall a sleep in my fuzzy jacket. like a snow angel. Goodnight lovelies. I shall be back soon with more sweet posts. Thank you thursday afternoons for such a wonderful awad. I was full of smiles and giggles to see such a thougthful gift waiting for me.

Twinkle Twinkle

my room is slowly disappearing into brown boxes that are piling up. im moving! not far however. just up the street around the corner and threw the trees. the sweet tunes of john mayer. meaghan smith. matt hires. and susie suh have been playing all weekend long. ive danced around my room. day dreamed away. and made silly faces in the mirror. do u like my bangs? its so different for me. but i am getting used to it...

its ok to cry. a broken heart. a cookie or two. friends to make me laugh. and snow to make all things beautiful again. this week was hard. charles micheal and i are no more. but i have cried my tears away. now i choose to be happy. Valentines Day i am going to visit my best friend Livi in Chicago. how excited we both are to see each other. and we have decided to dress up and go to a fancy dance. drink tea and eat cupcakes. stay up late and watch movies in black and white. paint each others nails and dance to happy music.

i am still stuck in my winter wonderland. its been warm lately. so much that the pond melted. and i saw duckies swimming around. i named them and sang them little songs. sitting inside near the fire i sat looking up at the stars. connecting the dots to makes silly constellations. i wish i lived on the moon in a far away galaxy with purple gold and turquoise stardust. or in an open meadow. with pink and orange butterflies to whisper little secrets to. and peanut butter sandwiches on sweet white bread to share with the fluffy grey rabbits that would hop and bop around the meadow with the baby lambs. id pick pretty daises to stick in my hair and have pretty acoustic music to fall asleep to. some thing like this...

i have been horrible at replying to comments. forgive me! my life has been all over the place lately. ive read every single one of them and they all make me smile and happy inside. you all are so sweet. and i may not comment on your posts but i do visit your pages and read ur posts (:

XoXo,
Lily

My Smile Is From You

Whispering in the movies,

Laughing at each other,

Treating me at the ice cream shop.

At the second goodbye, I didn’t want to leave

♥

With your laughter

My smile grew and heart melted to

Who would have thought?

The two of me and you

Together while the clock was ticking.

♥

Back and Forth the same ride twice

until we found the road to take

Muddy hike and little giggles

My heart smiled till it was over

♥

my last day, an acaia bowl for breakfast

an almost food fight

a perfect hug, I didn’t want to leave

the sparkle of my little secret,

i want to STAY!

watch the pink and orange sunset

laugh and smile...forever

i wrote in my notebook. and fell asleep. naps are ever so wonderful. you wake up refreshed and ready to study. atleast thats what i had to do. but not for to long.

goodnight bloggers! i hope you enjoyed the poem <3

Far Far Away In Paradise

It seems as if ive been away for an entire sparkly life time and two moons. Lost in the beauty on the island of Oahu. Watching the pretty sunsets, hiking the luscious green mountains, swimming in the glassy blue oceans, laughing with friends and family, and finding little treasures.
christmas and new years eve was as magical as it always is. christmas morning presents were unwrapped and surprised faces were a joy to see pumpkin pancakes were delish! and lunch with the family was filled with laughter and hugs. fireworks popping at midnight to celebrate 2009. apple cider. red wine. cheers and people shouting "Happy New Year!" couples kissing. happy faces. rhinestone headbands. tea plates. a strand of colourful good luck elephants. notebooks. pens. perfume. nail polish. and fizzy bubble bath balls. all my little treasures i picked up on my lovely stay in hawaii. my firework pictures i must track down. i will add them as soon as i find those silly pictures. now its time for me to go downstairs and make myself a warm cup of tea and then bundle up to go down to main street and run few errands. I cant wait to sit down tomorrow and read all the post ive missed and catch up on my reading. and thank you for the comments!

Have a lovely weekend sweet bloggers!
