sweetness

20 nov 2010
a random post for a random window shopping day at Pavilion.

 i love crewy pearls/bubbles.
personally think that their bubble tea tastes quite normal. nothing to shout about. maybe other flavor is better?


relax relax tap tap. he couldn't beat my record :P

ding ding ding~ Christmas is coming to town~ Pavilion has really nice Christmas deco.
LED lights on the Christmas tree always create yummy bokeh :D
maybe i should make some other shapes of bokeh light for fun (tutorial pls click here).
