Quite a few encounters recently have restarted me thinking about mortality and seeking meaning amidst it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s so easy to get carried away with life - that we end up trying to ‘not die’ rather than to ‘live’.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The point in life is not about avoiding suffering. It is in trying to experience meaning out of what we have.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It is in yielding to the nature of life and learning to love, not in trying to fight with our own strength with constant striving.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The vision of my images comes from acknowledging the power of softness, of surrendering, and of being authentic to all of who we are.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not all girlbosses have to wear power suits.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not all housewives have to be perfect mums.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are so many different sides of us, some ‘better’ than others. But what we learn to embrace is not a specific side or definition of us, but the journey of seeking presence and meaning in this miracle of a life.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So are you busy living, or are you busy not dying?
(Because like Shawshank Redemption says: get busy living, or get busy dying 😆)

Situated on the border of Wufeng District in Hsinchu County and Tai'an Township in Miaoli County, this protected area is quite remote and also offers one of a few access points into Taiwan's Shei-Pa National Park.

唉~ 接下來幾個禮拜,只能像是籠中鳥兒看著天空🕊️😢
好啦!其實沒那麼慘🙈 雖然墨爾本進入最嚴重的災難狀態,實施宵禁,強制戴口罩等⚠️ 但民眾還是可以每天出去一個小時運動,只是不能離家圓周五公里遠🏃
不過我從沒想到一個家庭只能派一個人出去買菜對我來說是打擊多麼大的事🙀 接下來就是一個抱怨+自我檢討的文字😬
首先,煮飯的人是 York,所以他必須買食材🌽 我則負責看當週有什麼特價、家裡用品缺什麼,再依照單位價格以及熱量等決定要買什麼😬 可以說逛超市是我旅遊世界各地的樂趣😝
事情發生於實行禁令下午,York下班後趕緊到附近的超市買菜🍆 買了一個禮拜份的簡單食材,買了他喜歡吃的橘子,卻沒買我愛吃的蘋果🍎🍊
問他為什麼?他說因為買太重了。結果我看了一下購物袋,他居然買了三公升的牛奶!!!重點是家裡只有他愛喝牛奶🥛
當下我氣炸了!覺得如果我不一起去購物,那麼他都不會想到我愛吃什麼東西? 又或是可以把他一公升的牛奶放回去,買一公斤我的蘋果也好😠
直到今天看到我朋友在 IG 轉發的文章,突然讓我釋懷。英文大意大概是這樣⤵️
「我們從三月份開始就因為疫情關係在緊繃狀態。一開始封城的時候,大家都嘗試利用這獨處的時間進修、運動、讓自己變更好💪
可是連續五個月都在緊繃狀態,我們無法進行平常讓頭腦放鬆的活動。例如見朋友、去餐廳吃飯、踏青⛰️ 久而久之,原本的動力就會消耗而盡...😔 什麼事情都提不起勁、每天昏昏沉沉、脾氣開始變成暴躁、沮喪💔
這些都是正常的。畢竟我們生活模式因為疫情的關係改變了許多。在路上見到行人會下意識閃躲,下班後必須直接回家,那裡也都不能去🙅
每天能夠安全度過就已經很棒了。畢竟人們需要在滿足生理需求後,才可以追求額外的事物,例如創造力等🖌️ 所以不要對自己太自責,也不要覺得自己沒用、在浪費生命❤️ 記得這不是你的問題,而是疫情的關係。」
有時候一段文字真的可以拯救一個人的心態啊~ 難怪那麼多人愛讀心靈雞湯😹 希望這段話也可以送給那些因為疫情影響的朋友們❤️
說真的這波封城比第一波封城還要困難☹️ 主要是因為全世界基本上都重新開放了,看著大家遊玩的照片而我們只能卡在家裡(之前至少還可以爬山)確實令人沮喪😔 不過還是要好好珍惜自己所擁有的,不要讓負面情緒掌控🙏
Ps. 最近 York 又重新開始跑步,卻碰到第二波封城的關係他就不出去跑了🏃 因為直到前天,原來那些確診的人除了在家自我隔離,居然還可以出去運動😱
而且運動的時候不需要戴口罩,因為政府覺得這樣無法跑步及騎腳踏車等🚲 實在有夠扯!難怪墨爾本人數一直上升📈 所以現在也不太想要出去走路了... 🙁
Pss. 我的 IG 只剩幾個人就可以破七千了!雖然離一萬還是很遙遠😭 希望大家可以多多支持啊~ www.instagram.com/travelwithwinny 🙉
For the next few weeks, we will be like birds in a cage looking out into the sky 🕊️😢
Okay! Maybe not that bad but considering Melbourne is in a "state of disaster" and we are only allowed 5KM radius from home, it's quite similar to being caged up 🙉
I never thought not able to go food shopping together has so much impact on me😕 Under the new restriction, only one person per household can go out food shopping🌽
York has to be the person doing shopping cz he's the one cooking🍳 Yet I am the one who buys other household items and see what's on special etc😬
So for York going out to shop by himself, it will turn out like the day after the restriction was announced, where he quickly went food shopping after work in case everything gets sold out👀
He bought his favourite oranges and not my apples🍊🍎 I asked why? He said cz he's already bought too much. So I looked into the grocery bag and saw him bought 3 liters of milk!!!
If he only have bought 2 liters of milk and 1 kilo of my apple (cz that's the only fruit I LOVE) then I'd be ok🙄 But no!!! 3 liters of milk for the week when I don't even drink milk just makes me think he doesn't consider about me😠
Then I read this post by @thepsychologysisters, which made me felt better and decided to forgive😌 It pretty much summed up like this⤵️
"Just remember that we've been stuck in a fight or flight mode since March. It's ok if you haven't been as productive as you would have liked, learnt a new skill, exercised everyday etc💪
We're suffering a collective stress response, it's admirable if we're able to even just make it through the day.
Our work, home and social environment has changed, we've had to adopt to a new and unfamiliar way of living👀
We had to cancel events that normally give our brain a break and provoke a sense of fun, normality, social cohesion and relaxation.
When we're in constant fight or flight, we begin to burn out. Our brain is stuck in survival mode, meaning we're less able to regulate our emotions and think normally🙁 It makes sense we're exhausted, burnt out and lacking any motivation at the moment.
We've been hit with 5 months of adrenaline, norepinephrine and stress hormones which can have devastating impacts on our emotional regulation, psychological and physical wellbeing💔
So if you're feeling tired, constantly sad, frustrated for no reason, ruminating on what could have been for 2020, please know that you are not alone, this is completely normal emotional reaction to Covid-19💕"
So ya, because of this post, it made decided to try not to forget how lucky we are still have a home🏠 Try not to let negativity take over and still try to be grateful 🙏
Ps. It still sucks seeing everyone traveling around the globe cz their government thinks economy is more important than health...😅

This is an English cover of "Sekai ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana" (The Only Flower in the World), a well-known song performed by Japanese boy band SMAP (founded in 1988 and disbanded just last year in 2016), with lyrics by singer-songwriter Noriyuki Makihara.
While I usually create my own translations, there was already a fantastic English version of this song by Hiromi De Young (YouTube linked below in the credits), and a great translation of the chorus by Nelson Babin-Coy (channel also linked). I used my favorite parts of each of these and made a few of my own changes.
I hope this song's message of acceptance and uniqueness reaches a larger audience through my cover.
Enjoy!
*Note: As usual, most of the translation is very close to the original meaning, but the second pre-chorus (the verse starting with "I saw a small flower...") is actually quite different from the original. However, I loved these lyrics so much that I kept them :)
The original meaning of the verse in Japanese is:
I didn't even know his name
But he gave me a smile that day
Just like a flower that was blooming
In a place where nobody would notice it
~♪~♪~♪~♪~♪~
今日は、昨年解散したSMAPの「世界に一つだけの花」を英語で歌ってみました♪
今回の英語詞はいつもと違って他人の訳詞を使わせていただきました。Hiromi De Youngによる素晴らしい英訳とNelson Babin-Coyによるサビ部分の素敵な英訳に、自分の変更を少し入れて歌わせていただきました。(お二人のYouTubeチャンネルへのリンクは下記のクレジットに記載しました。)
私のカバーを通じて、他人に対する寛容さと個性の大切さという、この曲のメッセージがより多くの人に伝わると嬉しいです。Enjoy!
※ちなみに、この英訳はいつものようにかなり原曲の歌詞に近いのですが、2番目のBメロ(「I saw a small flower」から始まるところ)だけが原曲の意味とかなり離れています。それでも、ここの英語詞があまりにも素敵だったのでそのままにしました(^^)/
I saw a small flower as I walked by
通り過ぎたら小さな花を見つけた
It stretched from the shadows to reach for the sky
その花は影の中から空へと伸びていた
I thought to myself, what if I was that way
そして思った 私もその花と同じように
Reaching for my own dream and saying...
自分の夢に手を伸ばして こう言おう

No. 1にならなくてもいい
(No. 1 ni naranakute mo ii)
もともと特別なOnly one
(moto-moto tokubetsu na "Only one")
I saw all the flowers lined up on display
The shop full of colors with their scented embrace
We all have a blossom we like more than the rest
But I think, with flowers, they all are the best
No fighting or envy, they never contend
But smile in the sunlight and sway in the wind
They all know their mission, it fills them with pride
Everyone is different yet all are alike
I wonder why people must always compare
And judge one another it seems so unfair
To place color, status, and looks to the test
For how can these show us who’s the best?
Just like these flowers
In the whole wide world, you are one of a kind
Cherish your uniqueness, no, you don't need to hide it
Each one of us holds our own special seed
So just be true to you, that's all you'll ever need
A man stood beside me and peered with a sigh
He puzzled and pondered but could not decide
With so many flowers and various hues
All were so pretty, which one should he choose?
Suddenly, a big smile broke out on his face
Flowers in all different colors and shapes
He gathered up a bouquet with one of each kind
Hugging them softly with joy in his mind
I saw a small flower as I walked by
It stretched from the shadows to reach for the sky
I thought to myself, what if I was that way
Reaching for my own dream and saying...
そうさ 僕らも世界に一つだけの花
(sou sa bokura mo sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana)
一人一人違う種を持つ
(hitori hitori chigau tane wo motsu)
その花を咲かせることだけに
(sono hana wo sakaseru koto dake ni)
一生懸命になればいい
(isshou-kenmei ni nareba ii)
Small flowers, big flowers, all kinds of flowers
You will never find one that’s just like any other
So you don’t need to struggle to be number one
Just be yourself because there’s only one
La la la la...

This is a review in Dutch as an example which I made to apply for a job as a presenter for a Dutch company. However testing the Panasonic G6 in Paris it was quite a nice camera with allot of dynamic range and ISO3200 looks quite usable eventhough you can see some noise in it, but it have tons of functions that made it such an awesome camera. And I felt Canon is nowhere close nor will they ever make a camera that would literally have allot of the function which you would find in any of the Magic Lantern Hack as a standard soon. As they wouldn't do it as it make that camera be top notch meaning they would need to put that in the best camera and probably would take a few years before someone realise they need to step up there game cause they are litterally loosing ground on filming. Will release an English version soon.

Hello my itty bitty beautiful snowflakes!
Quite a few people have recently told me my face looks sharper these days and asked if I've lost weight. Some even made accusations that I've had botox lol? I have to say I have not lost a single pound nor had any form of botox. Today, I'm going to be sharing my facial slimming secrets with you all.
You can check out the full detailed 'Slimmer Face' post here. You'll find the full list of products I used in the video and extra facial slimming tips (outfit and hair related): http://bubzbeauty.com/bubbi-likes/368-achieve-a-slimmer-a-smaller-face.html
Please don't misunderstand this video as a message to be ashamed of your face shape. I'm very happy with the face shape I was born with. My face is considered quite round and I've seen it as a blessing because round face girls tend to look younger and more innocent.
However, your face can become excessively bloated/puffy due to factors such as lifestyle and diet. You'd be surprised to find out that your 'naturally puffy cheeks' could be self caused after all.
What I share in this video is going to define your natural face shape. It's not going to transform your face to an extreme degree (for example, if you have a stronger jaw line -this isn't gonna remove it) but it will sharpen your face to give you it's NATURAL DEFINITION. No matter what face shape you have, you CAN make your face line more defined.
The video is split into 3 parts:
1. Everyday tips to PREVENT/MINIMIZE a puffy and bloated face. I'll also share a facial slimming massage technique which has worked wonders for me. I massage my face at least 2-3 times a week now.
2. How to use makeup to sculpt and contour the face to give an illusion of a smaller, sharper and slimmer face
3. I'll be sharing/demonstrating some products which I've tried & tested that really works for slimming the face.
Wow Bubz, that seems like a lot of effort.
Yes it is. Beauty is Pain right? lol but in all seriousness, I really have to say I enjoy taking after myself. Plus, making these lifestyle changes will benefit my health overall (drinking more water, reducing my sodium intake etc) Will I be able to keep this lifestyle on going constantly? Probably not because there's definitely gonna be days where I'll be lazy and eat junk food. Ah well, it happens. At least you know this piece of information now and whenever you need your face to look more defined (photoshoot coming up, special occasion or for vanity reasons lol, you'll know what you can do to define your face. After my lifestyle chances, even now my face still has it's natural roundness. I've just drained the excess water retention and bloating.
I hope you guys found this video helpful!! I had such a hard time condensing the 14 minute video into 9 minutes. Sorry it's so long. I tried to cut as much as I can but too much information was involved x_X !!
Ps. Just letting you guys know that the Holiday Clearance Sale on ShopBubbi.com is still going. We had to do an emergency restock because we didn't expect so many orders. If you've been meaning to shop from us, hurry hurry because it's running out again! http://www.shopbubbi.com
Talk soonies! Bed time. Video on Hormonal Acne coming up!
Much love, Bubz xx
