Hi everyone! My name is Cindy, but you can call me Cins. I'm originally from Southern California {LA/OC} but is currently living in San Francisco {Lakeshore} with my darling husband, Will, and our amazing little man, Cody. I've been living in the city for almost two years now!

Design3rd is my personal style blog/visual diary... I would like to share with you all the things that I love - family & friends, fashion, love, photography & adventures. Join me on the journey if you'd like!

here are 15 random facts about me:

1. as cliche as it sounds, i've married the man of my dreams. ♥

2. slow walkers & drivers drive me nuts.

3. i secretly wished cody was a girl... he'd make the perfect mini-me. haha

4. you don't want to play me at scrabble. i'm notoriously brutal and competitive.

5. i've been thinking a lot about cognitive bandwidth and the prospect of reducing the number of things i pay attention to in life.

6. i'm a tadbit of a clean-freak & everyone around me knows it... especially at restaurants; i like to stack up the plates as if it were my job to do so.

7. if i see spider anywhere near me, i'd gather up my hoopskirts, scream like a little girl & run from the room. well, not quite... but i really, really don't like them.

8. if it were possible to get paid for doing it, i'd probably take a job reading books.

9. i was born in chonburi, thailand & lived there for 7 years before coming to the states. i miss my childhood flying kites in the open field behind our neighborhood. i'm so proud of my family & myself to have gotten this far in life. i have truly been blessed in my life, much beyond what i could have imagined or deserved.

10. i love motherhood; despite all the hardship, anxieties and sleepless night it brought me. i will forever cherish & appreciate everything all mothers go through for their families.

11. my dream career: forensic pathologist. just because working with cadavers are so much more fun.

12. i should spend an afternoon creating the soundtrack of my life. so when the day some hot shot producer comes up to me with permission to film a tribute of my life story, i'll be prepared. lolol

13. my first {thai} name has the word "porn" in it. yes, i'm pretty proud of it.

14. i'm a big foodie. i love food, i love to eat & i can eat. my friends say that i should join an eating contest. hmmm...

15. i had a hard time coming up with the final one, but in the spirit of keeping this interesting, i'll end with this throw-away: if someone offered me the opportunity to become a game show host, i'd take it in a heartbeat!
