food for thoughts

i love the tuna melt panini at caffe cucina.

i had a lonesome and late lunch at euston's caffe cucina on friday.

its a rarity that i eat on my lonesome. and if i do, i normally am reading a book or magazine. that day i had none with me. (business matters in london town on a weekday makes adrian an absentee husband).

so what better to do, than people watch.


tuna and people watching on a friday, who can grumble?

i am ever so grateful to my lucky stars.

unintentionally,im getting alot of queries to photograph people's weddings and children. i cant keep up.

there was never an intention to make this photography thing to be a business. this was just so i could learn and master my camera. and for this hobby to pay for itself.

(talk about reverse learning,lol.)

the sad thing is, i have other commitments that weigh with the same importance..like family. like therapy.

plus, i know i will never ever be a successful businesswoman. i love giving too much. (i had given an album for free twice before, lol).


i want to take things my pace. or else, this love for snapping will turn into something i feel pressure from, which is the least i want.

other than that,mama chelski, is cool as ice (buko).

i cannot wait for my powerpoint presentation for tuesday...its like an end of internship oral exam. im so ready. with matching, flashy all-singing-all-dancing powerpoint presentation for the day.

and some free sweets for the attendees too.

indeed, the best way to get good marks is thru the stomach.
