weLaine @ Xi An :: Day 1 (鼓楼&钟楼)

我想我也真的是太懒惰了,这么能到现在连西安的最后一个部分都还没完成. 不行,不行, 今天就要把西安, 我最喜爱的部分与你分享.

站在西安的市中心, 你肯定不会错过这非常宏伟的西安鼓楼.鼓楼位于西安城内东西南北四条大街的交汇处。鼓楼创建于明洪武十三年（公元1380年）,楼体为砖木结构，呈长方形，通高34米，东西长52.6米，南北宽38米.鼓楼.外观楼体雄健宏大、优美，极赋浓郁的民族特色。

在西安城内，与鼓楼相媲美的姊妹建筑当是西安钟楼，两楼遥相辉映故有“姊妹楼”和“文武楼”之称，西安钟楼始建于明朝洪武十七年,位于西安市中心城内东西南北四条大街的交汇处，是中国古代遗留下来众多钟楼中形制最大、保存最完整的一座。钟楼呈典型明代建筑艺术风格，重檐斗拱，攒顶高耸，屋檐微翘，华丽庄严.

我尤其喜欢这两座姊妹楼在夜幕低帘的时侯的样子, 是那么的壮观, 看着它们耸立在这繁华都市中,路上车子,行人来来往往, 却似乎无损它们的高贵,庄严韵味. 哪怕这城市多么繁华，傲立在中心的这两座姊妹楼，竟也没让人感觉格格不入。我仿佛有种置身与古代的错觉. 或应该说, 我有种古代与现代的交错感, 而且那感觉竟能如此强烈, 旧旧挥散不去.

这是我西安最后一篇回忆录,但我却竟然有些不舍. 当我把旅程在用文字与图片一一记录下来的当儿, 我就犹如在重游了一次西安, 这座坐落在现代的古城, 美丽而神秘, 宏伟而古雅.难忘非常.倘若还有机会, 我必定会再重游一次, 再一次来敢受着非凡的古城气势.

The perfect door grill

WeLaine are currently searching for a good and nice main door grill! We don't really like those grill with designs, while prefer something simple.

Did some browsing and found this one that we love! Simple and nice!

So set, this gonna be the one that is guarding weLaine's Loft!

And , see what we found while surfing around, such a super cute and lovely door grill, such a happy family ya! =)

Reno updates!

Updates! Updates!

The tiles for the MBR bathroom were up last Friday! Now, two bathroom's tiles are fully done! I love them both!

A close look of the wall tiles and the feature wall.

The common one is grey/dark themed and MBR one is creame/bright!

The dark one is apparently The Boy's favourite, while the bright one is piggy's favourite!

Now i want to see how my floor tiles looks like!! Be fast pls!

The tiles are up!

I have been neglecting my blog for quite some days, too busy. Too busy with the renovations, too many with all the discussion, too busy with all the decisions needed to be made. Work is not busy, but it is the 1-1 trainings for 3 days drained me out totally!

Ok, stop rambling, some updates for the house reno! The whole house tiles and unnecessarily things (old ceiling lamp, kitchen cabinets...etc) have been removed, and leaving me a clean house waiting for cement screed and the tiles to be up!

It was a pleasant surprise to see the wall tiles for the common bathroom is up when we went over yesterday evening! And, thanks God that the effect turns out to be what we want! The pictures did not do them justice , as it was pretty dark when we were there! I love my tiles! =)

Now, we wait, oh yes again wait patiently for the floor tiles to be up!

But first, we need to solve the water leaking problem in the MBR with the HDB officer, we need to confirm all the details drawing, we need to choose another wc for the common since the one we choose initially doesn't fit.......and the list goes on .....

Anyway, i m happy although the to-do list are lost, purely because all that are the fun of setting up a loft, Welaine's Loft!

* heart *

Filling up slowly

Today weLaine's Loft will be filled up with beautiful tiles.

Love the matching colour tones tiles that we choose together, hopefully when it is all done up , it gonna be a pretty little house with our effort in it!

We were a little happy couple after all the tiles has been selected last weekend, and decided to end the day with a little dessert, Rochor Beancurd! Ah, i have to end the satisfying day with something sweet and yummy simply because One/Big mission accomplished!

I can't wait, can't wait to see how it gonna turn into, when dreams become reality, when the little house become the house that full with our effort and love. We are filling it up slowly, parts by parts, putting in all the bits and pieces that represent us !

2 months more, weLaine's Loft gonna be in a totally new appearance and i truly looking forward to it! =)

Family Day

It was a date with the lovely niece for our company 40th year celebration aka Family Day back in 1 month ago!

Thanks God to the lovely weather today, rise and shine, and we were at the zoo for the celebration!

It was really fun with all the small booths of games, performances, lucky draws , although we didn't really participate in most of it, but i think we did enjoy much!

Not much walking arounnd the zoo due to the high humidity in the weather, and also i think we are all grown up, even the niece is not that excited when she saw those animals. I started to miss those days back then when she was still a small little toddler, how excited she was everytime she visited the zoo!

But i truly enjoy time spent with her today, it was hard to meet up with her nowadays, due to busy schedule of hers and mine! Oh ya, she is a busy little princess! But i must admit, this little young lady, i truly love her much!

The perfect escape

I don' t really remember when was the the last time i went for a high-tea session, i used to go for it quite often during my high-tea addictive days, be it all by myself or with my gfs.

Thanks to the dearly sis who arranged a nice high-tea session yesterday, i tell you , i enjoyed so much the whole afternoon. With all the good food, nice brewed tea, and of course with you, it was lovely and sweet! =)

But the fun does not just ended there, we then proceed to the sis's mum shop. I love visiting the sis's mum, i love to chit-chat with her, cracking jokes, and i enjoy time at the shop! I tell myself i must visit often, or tag along the sister there more often!! We left the shop around 7 and proceed to visit the star of the night - Baby Javan!

Has been hearing news , seeing cute pics of this lil guy since he was born, and finally i have the chance to meet him in person! Such a cute little baby, charming yet cheeky! See you soon ok baby? Grow well with all the love surrounding you baby , hugsss!

It was a very wonderful Wednesday spent, and thanks for giving me the chance to escape ONCE from Body Combat class, haha!
