Feng Shui.

Honestly, I’ve always loved Wall Water Fountains. I love seeing them in gardens, in hotels and in spa lobbies. I just get so relaxed when I hear running water and even more when I watch it fall down. According to fengshui books I’ve read, my element is water so that might be the case.

My dream house has a wall fountain in the garden, so I can relax in there whenever I want. I’m also thinking about adding a wall fountain to my dream outdoor bath. It would be so relaxing to lounge in a bath while watching streams of water falling down the stone walls and the birds chirping beautifully.

I need a massage!

I’ve been experiencing a lot of body pains lately, especially around my shoulders and spinal. I’m going to a spa this week to get a massage and some alone time in the steam room. I’ve always wanted to own my own hot tub or steam room and I am definitely getting one when I get my own house. I could get a hot tub in the back with a spa cover to keep it safe from the elements and a cozy steam room inside the house.

A massage room would also be a plus since it would be really nice to have a room where I can relax and feel like I’m on a spa or vacation.

Setting the lights.

I asked the all around carpenter, electrician and gardener who was fixing my room about dim lights. I wanted to get some for the four corners of my room so I can choose which light I want on when I’m resting or listening to my instrumental music collection. He said it will cost me around P2k-3k so I said i’ll have to save still. I saw some Murray Feiss lighting while I was looking for goodlighting options and I really like them. I would want to get one for our home when we build our own house. I know Mom will love it.

Renovated the room.

Been busy the past few weeks with renovations done on the room. Had lots of woodworking done so I haven’t been able to do much but keep an eye as they worked on the pieces I wanted. Hopefully February will be easier in terms of housework load. Although I have to siblings whose birthday falls this month so we might be a little busy with celebrations, especially since my third sibling is turning 18.

Redecorating and untidying my room.

New year, means new me. I’ve decided that my room was looking a bit gloomy and that it needed some more space. Since I’m trying to find a better rack for my old and disheveled computer, I’ve decided to ditch my small television to clear up some room. I’ll get the tv back (or maybe a better one) once I get a slicker computer table and a separate mount for my tv from an array of tv stands on the department store.

I also need to ditch the double-deck bed on my room and get either a single or junior sized mattress with a wooden base. 2010 is my year and I want it away from clutter.

Granite for my doughs.

I told Mom I wanted to get some granite tile for the table that I am looking to be made. I read somewhere that it was good for pastries so i want to get some slabs for a small working table for my doughs. The table I have at the moment is made of stainless sheet and is still too small for my space needs when I bake in large dozes (especially now that Christmas is coming).

When I get my own house though, I want my kitchen counters to be made with granite. I love looking at granite counters and I have the perfect color in mind.

Renovating the house.

Before we move to another house, we’ll be getting this one fixed in time for the owner’s arrival on August. We’ll most probably get a new paint job for the whole house and some on the roof. Some of the cabinets will be re-made as well because of some termites. >.<

I've been looking online for some of the stuffs needed to fix some of the broken things such as the lights on the gate. I found some outdoor lighting and the wall mounted ones interested me. We’ll most likely get a wall mounted lighting for the gate of this house we’re living in before we move out. For my dream house I’ve gotten interested on hanging lanterns. I’m interested on the Liz Jordan “Valley” item that they have. That would look really nice on my dream porch.
