Just about perfect. Gorgeous. The colours, the layout. Cosy, clean, homey, stylish. Everything. The blue chair in (what I think is) the master bedroom!

Loved it! Clean, uncluttered and very cosy. Cosy doesn't mean ramming your home with crap. I would have no problem putting my feet up and having a coffee in that house. The blue ceiling is gorgeous. Well done.

Minimal-cosy. Minimal can be cosy as long as you have a nice colours, layout and a comfy couch/chair. A blanket or pillow can add warmth.


Minimal vs. Cozy: Which is More \"You\"?

Don't get me started on this one. First of all, it looks horrible. It ruins another wise perfectly good fireplace with a big, ugly, modern TV (don't get me wrong, I LOVE my big, ugly, modern TV). A picture or even a mirror (or nothing!) belongs above a fireplace. Secondly, as mentioned, it hurts your neck and shoulders. This is ridiculous if you have the space for it elsewhere. The room pictured above is ruined by that monstrocity. This and hanging bikes on the wall. Stop!

I would have kept the runner. I think it would've look fantastic against the white. x

Way too colourful for my taste. Lol. But, it's clean, cosy and the bones are great. I'd probably stay in that gorgeous kitchen all day to get away from all that colour. :o)

Would be a shame to add anymore furniture to the place! Lol. It's fab the way it is. The rounded door frames are of course awesome. And, yes, the divider. x

Totally. But Apartment Therapy is notorious for this. Lol. They consider 1000 sq ft small. My apt, then, at 530 sq ft must be miniscule.

OK, so this dude is bascially living my dream. Lol. The décor is perfect. The city is perfect! Lol. I love that Chinese-chequers light box thingy.

I live alone and didn't see the need for a hamper to clutter my small condo: I put the clothes in the washing machine! When I'm ready to do laundry, I simply remove them, separate them and wash them. This, of course, can be a challenge with two or more people using the same washing machine.

Why You Should Switch Your Cell Phone to Military Time
5/15/12 5:16 PM

A quick way to figure out military time is the following:

13:00 is 1pm as 12 plus 1 equals 13.
15:00 is 3pm as 12 plus 3 equals 15.

Or you can do the following:

13:00 is 1pm as 13 minus 12 equals 1
15:00 is 3pm as 15 minus 12 equals 3

And so on...

Pure Shores from All Saints is one of my favourite pop songs. But, I wouldn't call it relaxing! Lol. x


Study Determines This Is the Most Relaxing Song Ever

Breakfast is the least favourite meal of mine. Usually, it's just a coffee and a muffin (blueberry bran). I simply do not have the time (I refuse to wake up an hour earlier just to eat) and, frankly, the appetite. I don't listen to the claims that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Really? Well, when I do eat breakfast I feel like crap the rest of the day. A coffee and a muffin (or even a whole wheat bagle with peanut butter or cream cheese ) is all I need. Everyone is different.
