Suddenly, I couldn't recognize who stood before me.
It was like change had conquered over night.
And I couldn't stop mourning for whom I had lost..

You laid there so peaceful, in a deep slumber.
I struggled to creep slowly, quietly onto the bed, careful not to stir you.
I pushed myself upright, and suddenly I felt so giddy towering above you like so.
My body swaying I heaved my body into the air, bouncing like my sheets were purely fluffy clouds.
You're eyes shot open and pierced mine. Fear struck me.
Suddenly you pulled me down fiercely and held me tight against your chest.
Our laughter cracked the silence and mixed with with the sounds of your heartbeat.
This moment defined happiness for me.

So much, yet so little has been happening. My weeks are a blur between work and university. Despite that, my bank account hasn't increased a cent and I am tragically behind uni work regardless of my efforts (which are quite poor I guess).
On another note, congratulations to Ly & Lincoln who are currently on their flight to Paris ! I had the pleasure of joining their special day last Saturday and never got the chance to thank them properly. The stories I heard, the vows they shared, it was a love story unveiled before (a teary eyed) me.
Despite the rush, the weather was beautiful and a joy. I didn't take as many photos but this is one of my favorites of my darling and I.
I am currently on my way to uni (yes this is the only time I could find to blog) so off I go.
Hope to be back soon.
Love from g, xo

After a long week of work, which seemed almost never ending, I had a pleasant day out with J.
We were never really brunch people, mainly because I don't do breakfast and he's just not a morning person overall. But we decided to give something new a try and started our day early in a little corner called Valentine Cafe. The cafe had a small selective menu, and I can't comment on the taste (I'm no critic) but we quite enjoyed our meal. The ambiance was perfect, the amount of office workers bustling about for their coffee, a little traffic passing now and then, as well as the slight hustle of leaves made my morning. We chit chat, catch up and just let ourselves drift with our surroundings.
With our hectic schedule lately it felt nice just to sit back and enjoy each others company.
To follow, we spent the day in Westfield. And although we had a slow start it turned out to be one of the best shopping sprees I've had in a while. I was shopping for an outfit particularly for my spa date with J in the coming week (but more details to come when it happens).
I didn't purchase exactly what I had on mind but was fairly happy. Especially for the prices I paid. I don't mean to sound uptight (lol) I just think when you begin to work so much and save for future plans you become more wise with what you spend your money on.
Here are some of the pieces I gathered on my day out spree.
I'm trying something different compared to what I usually wear. But all is well, ends well.
I can't wait for my day out.
Throughout that day, and the following, I felt like the luckiest girl. I felt treasured, and I guess there's a difference between that and being spoilt or simply just tolerated. J had walked around with me the whole day and helped me pick out pieces I was actually happy with. I didn't let him get me anything that day besides food (lol I sound like a wee lil fattie). It felt good after a whole week to be out and to spoil myself. But mostly it was one of those epiphany moments you get once in a while, when you realize how truly lucky you are to have someone like whomever is walking by your side.
So I guess, you reap only what you sow. I worked plenty of hours before giving in to a little splurge. And only when you are true to someone then they will reciprocate your love.
Love,

Frivolous
Adj. ; Carefree, lighthearted, silly.
This is not my first blog. Previously, I had been a keen and regular blogger. I voiced every detail of my life, and conveyed every possible emotion. But then I suddenly felt very exposed.
Hopefully La Vie Frivole Avec G will be different, because I am making a new approach in life for me.
Sometimes we need to step back and just appreciate the better things in life. We are caught in the rush of living that we seem to only have time to dwell in darker moments.
So hopefully in the midst of sharing my life and thoughts, this blog will be an opportunity for me to reminisce and appreciate the little silly things in my life.
Love,
G. xo

There are many types of people in this world. There are no true boundaries or extent in defining anyone. But there are some people who always almost seem so definite of themselves. These people seem to possess a direction, a goal which seems almost bizarre and impossible to me. I see people going places, doing things, when my list only really consists of going home to sleep (haha, sadly it's true for 6 out of 7 days of the week). Carrying on, my point being, most of these people believe that they are the one who control their own lives, where they are going and what they achieve in life.
I have always really struggled with who I am. I am horrid with decisions, I don't favour them. With the constant possibility that once decision is a wrong one, it puts me off -- literally.
But then, maybe everything happens for a reason. Yes, I am talking about some blind faith, otherwise known as fate and destiny. I know it seems absurd for some, but I don't think it is something to be omitted. So this is where the frivolous story begins..
I am a Sydney girl born in Liverpool a little over two decades ago. I was born a little premature and needed to reside at the hospital a little over a week. My boyfriend, J, was (coincidentally?)born around the same week in that hospital. In my head a movie scenario appears, a little baby boy is wheeled in next to a baby girl in one of those large hospital rooms filled with babies. Cute or what? Hehe. Who knew many years later they would be lying next to each other again.
Sometimes, a little bit of blind faith is nice and comforting.
Love,
G. xo
