LOVE AND LEATHER

Hope all of you had a wonderful Valentine's Day! Nate and I had an impromptu movie date in which we watched the new release Valentine's Day, that had every celebrity and their moms in it. It was definitely a very cute movie--pretty secular relationships, but what can you expect? I was especially heartwarmed by the storyline behind Julia Roberts and Kathy Bates. Sadly, Taylor Swift partially ruined the movie for me...the girl can sing, but definitely cannot act. I rate it better than Love Actually (I never liked Love Actually, actually). Afterwards, we had a fancy seafood dinner and called it a night.

Nate's Valentine's Day gift to me was two tickets to see "Fiddler on the Roof" in San Francisco this coming Tuesday night!

My gift to him was an engraved cover with a moleskine blank-paged notebook. I noticed that during Sunday service sermons, he's always taking notes on our church's weekly printed programs, so I thought that this would be a very practical gift for him. I purchased the item at Engrave Your Book, and let me tell you, this company is absolutely wonderful at what they do. The covers come out gorgeous--which led me to buy one for myself! They also smell SO GOOD (mm... cow). You can order a pre-designed cover, or submit your own design for the engraving. Of course, in my case, I went with the latter.

As for the design, there's a special place in Nate's heart that is infatuated with guns, hunting, and wildlife. He completely admires the design. :)







What did you get your Valentine?

JANET CHANG



I'm obsessed with the customization of anything and everything because I believe a one-of-a-kind item reveals the self and transforms ownership into something special. For now, graphic design is only a hobby of mine that I picked up from architecture school, but some days I tickle the thought of making it into a part-time career.
