To-do List 2015

Some time ago, I made a resolution. 

To be happy.

This resolution pretty much stuck with me and I was glad I made that. Every single day, I try my best to ensure that whatever I do, it equates to someone's happiness. Be it mine or others. Like surprising your friends, being courteous on the road and a whole lot of other things.

Recently, I made a list.

Not exactly a bucket list. 

But it's perhaps the kind of list containing the things I wanna be able to achieve by the end of the year. It's more like my to-do list for 2015. 

I thought about this list for a while. I realised that there are quite a bit of things that I have been wanting to do but I have always set them aside due to work, other commitments, blah blah blah. The next thing I knew, the year went by and the same cycle starts again. 

Floral arrangement was part of that list. In my recent class at Shop Wonderland, I learned that in order for the peonies to bloom, you have to place them in warm water. The last time I got peonies from the florist, they were perhaps premature, hence the peonies did not bloom. 

After class, I was determined to ensure that I practise what I have learned and keep doing it till I am good at it.

Last night, in the middle of the week, I was driving home when I decided to make a stop at the florist.

The smell of flowers, hmmmm, I could just stay in there for hours choosing from one to another and could still not be able to make up my mind on what flowers I should choose. This time, I decided to give the peonies another shot to see if the advice really works. 

Guess what?

They worked!

Thanx to the floral arrangement class, I think I am now slightly better in arranging these blooms than before. Thanx Mel.

The peonies just seemed to be growing bigger and bigger as time goes by. Each time I walk passed them, they looked bigger than before and seems to be competing among themselves to see who will bloom the largest. 

Oh wow, they just make my day (and night) alrite.

For those in need of ideas on which flower to brighten up your room this week, try the peonies. 

Hope they make you smile too :)

Let's see what will be next in my to-do list. 

Keep guessing....
