Baby Momma

I apologize for the late introduction!  I am the second half of Choco.meh and the yin to Nancy’s yang.  My name is Sae (pronounced say) Hi Kim – I kid you not.  Like Nancy, I too have little blogging experience; however, share her passion for all things design related.   You might find our styles and point of views may differ at times, but hopefully, rather than leaving you with a hodgepodge of ideas, it will instead provide you with a balanced view of what good design can bring to your life.  After all, as that old saying goes –two creative brains are better than one!

So what does the title of this blog have anything to do with design? Being 7 months pregnant now, and with my career on a temporary hiatus, I now have two avenues in which to pour all my creative energy into--finding the most inspiring designs for you, and that little bun cooking in my oven.  So don’t be surprised if some of my blogs have to do with cute nursery décor, bumpers, pink color palettes--yes, it’s a girl!—and even the occasional layette or two.

I have to admit motherhood can be a bit disorienting.  But what makes up for the ankles turning into cankles, having to check the fridge to see if I left my keys in there, and the 1 am, 3am, and 6 am dashes to the bathroom, is that much of the conventional rules for nursery decor have gone out the window, making nursery design as much fun as it is a unique expression of you.  Blue is no longer just for boys, pink is no longer just for girls, and gender neutral colors such as orange, green, and yellows are popping up everywhere. And because I don't like being constrained to one particular style, I've collected a variety of images that have caught my eye so far.

First Name: Nancy | Last Name: Quynh

FOR THE RECORD: Blogging may come natural to some. For me, what ends up happening is just major "blogging - vomit" (haha). I just have so many things to tell you and it just comes all at once! Still, I promise I will try my best to share one thing at a time. 
So if I do commit minor "blogging - vomit" please understand that I am probably just over excited.  :D

Tid-bits about myself...

My name is Nancy Quynh. I make up exactly 1/2 of CHOCO.MEH. I received my BA in Interior Architecture and Design from the Academy of Art University, San Francisco. This is also where I met CHOCO.MEH's other half... Sae Kim. Together we conquered  project after project. Through those projects, we found that we made a great team and still do to this day. 

My current 9-5 job is being the Marketing Manager for a high-end luxury furniture company in West Hollywood. It's been a roller coaster ride but a great one. I have been blessed with great opportunities, even in this economy and I couldn't ask for more. 

I spend my evenings and weekends  either working on design projects for my own clients, watching my daily dose of TV, or finishing up the last Harry Potter book. Hate to say it, but I am also a HUGE AMERICAN IDOL fan, and would live at Disneyland if Mickey would let me. <3

I really just want CHOCO.MEH to be a place where Sae and I can get together and share our adventures with you all.  In hard times, it's difficult to remember what fuels your passions and aspirations and I hope that CHOCO.MEH, along with all the other great blogs , can inspire you to keep going for what you want in life

.... because I know I will be.
